God of Tricksters

Chapter 1433 Decision

"Mhm?" The president raised his eyebrows, confused upon this statement.

"The one that everyone knows right now is none other than a clone from the real Theodore Griffith. He escapes from the Griffith Family with the help of Ray Griffith and Valerie Guerrero.

"There is a reason why we didn't hunt him this whole time. We wanted to set up the prestige while the real one devoured him later. That's how we're planning to progress the family." Mason explained the situation. He was lying, but he mixed some truth to make it more believable. He just twisted it to the version he liked.

"What do you mean? I don't think I understand what you're saying…" The president narrowed his eyes.

Mason smirked. "He is produced by an S Rank Skill, Clone Skill. As you can see right now, he has a clone skill, right? That power derives from the original S Rank Skill that completely grants life to a mere clone. But it also makes the current clone only has an A Rank Clone Skill. That's why he will have to disappear after some time and requires Magic Power.

"It's different from an S Rank Skill. At first, the clone has the similarity to the original, but after he learns more and more, his character changes a bit.

"I'm sure you know about our family's mission, right?" Mason raised one finger as if asking him to point up. However, he was simply hinting to think about the person who had died.

"The Griffith Family's ancestor…" The president narrowed his eyes.

"That's right. We know that Theodore Griffith is the destined one. Hence, we're building him up to lead the Griffith Family. We have taken the real Theodore Griffith right before the Grand Gaia Competition while letting the clone gain the experience and skill so that when the original absorbs him back, he'll gain everything and become the strongest in the world.

"So, this is your chance. If you want to ally with the Griffith Family to capture or eliminate the current Theodore Griffith, we can create a political marriage for the long-lasting relationship."

When he listened to his words, it was surely convincing. After all, if the current Theo returned to the original and the latter took over everything. Not only could he get all the achievements of the current Theo, but he could also lead the Griffith Family.

The Griffith Family's ambition to lead the world from the shadow might happen. However, there was one doubt stopping him from agreeing to this proposal.

"And where is that Real Theodore Griffith? Do you expect me to believe such bullshit without any proof?" The president narrowed his eyes, pressuring Mason back.

"Of course." Mason took out his Skylink and connected it to the Original Theo, who was accompanied by the Poison King.

"!!!" The president opened his eyes wide because he obviously had the report of Theo versus Theo in the previous battle. Normal people didn't know about it, but all superpower countries had been using their spies and technology to observe their fight.

Although it was unbelievable, there was indeed a report about Theo fighting another Theo. The first one had a black-colored power that seemed to be able to devour everything.

When he connected the devouring power and Mason's story, he felt a click in his mind. There were some flaws in the story, but he couldn't simply brush off the connections between them. So, the decision became harder to make.

On the one hand, if they allied with the Griffith Family and let the latter absorb the current Theo, they could control the Griffith Family for a bit through the marriage. However, it also had some flaws such as the stability of the country. If they had to be terrorized by another influence, they couldn't be called a superpower country.

On the other hand, if they didn't ally with the Griffith Family and instead supported the current Theo, they could gain some benefits along the way since Theo wouldn't become their enemies in the future. Having him as a friend was surely a good thing to have in the future to keep the balance.

But this made them rely on him a bit, which wasn't that different from Mason's proposal. Hence, the president had to thoroughly consider his decision. And he couldn't be so slow either since the battle was going on.

"It seems that the negotiation is a bit hard…" The Original Theo smirked.

"How do you prove you are the real Theodore Griffith?" The president asked while observing Theo's movement. Although he had the report, he couldn't believe it just like that. He had to test the original Theodore Griffith to prove his ability.

The original Theo suddenly released his black-colored Magic Power to show them that he was also at the same level. Just like the report, this Magic Power symbolized his status as someone who possessed an Order.

"This is my Order, Devouring Order. Even if I can't use my skill to absorb my clone, I can still use the Devouring Order to gain everything. If I manage to absorb him, you can also gain the War God Family as well as all of his connections. I have been training in the Griffith Family this whole time to get stronger while letting my clone roam free. This is how you kill two birds with one stone."

The fact that the Poison King helped him too must be to show his influence as well as the Griffith Family power. It seemed that they hadn't grown weaker because of the previous battle. In fact, they had gotten stronger.

This was the battle between the original and his clone. There was one thing that he considered the last. After the battle, if the Original Theo won, they could gain the War God Family and other connections. But if the clone won, they could only gain connection to him, not anyone else.

The difference in benefits between them was simply too big.

After considering the pros and cons as well as all the reports from his subordinates, The president made his decision, putting a smile on Mason's face.

"Inform her to capture Nagasawa Rea and Akbaraly Ibraev in Thersland."
