God of Tricksters

Chapter 1517 Anger

"Alexej. This must be a trick by someone. We have never killed Richard and your son!" Haiskal Hetson or Mason Griffith stated with a serious expression. He had been talking to Alexej through the Skylink for a long time, trying to explain the real situation.

But at the same time, he couldn't do it because the clue was clear.

At first, he thought Yermolayev was the one killing Richard, but Yermolayev didn't have the capability to reproduce the Magic Saint Fist Style. So, it was impossible for Yermolayev to kill Richard.

Hence, there was only one answer, the Griffith Family. Of course, no one was guilty until proven otherwise.

The Griffith Family instantly denied all kinds of accusations. However, they didn't expect that their own reputation was actually the one destroying them.

The Griffith Family was known to be the number one hidden family, whose espionage system could go toe to toe or even ahead of that of a country despite their small number.

Those in power usually commissioned them because they trusted the Griffith Family to bring them something.

This reputation had been established for seven generations. So, they were trustworthy in the business.

However, the clue that had been leading to the death of Richard and Ricky was simply connected to the Griffith Family. The reputation that had been established for seven generations? It made the people believe that the Griffith Family had the power to do so.

The number one hidden family that could remove their records and stay hidden for seven generations? It was clear that they had the ability to remove themselves, including all kinds of evidence. If not for the fact that there was a witness, no one would be able to prove it was them.

The family worked in espionage that could even best a country? Assassination was one of the branches, so it was most likely they were the ones to kill them.

In other words, no matter how they were trying to explain they didn't do it, everything they had established actually worked against them.

Just like in Aikido or Jiu Jitsu, the accusation used the power of their opponent to defeat them.

Those people never realized that they were in Theo's palm this whole time.

And now, Mason Griffith tried to explain to his ally about this whole situation, trying to prove how he wasn't involved in this matter.

But Alexej refused to believe it. "Shut up, Mason Griffith. You're simply using me as an excuse to kill that Richard. That was why you agreed to send Yermolayev. I know everything now!

"You wanted to use that opportunity to kill Richard and blame everything on Yermolayev. Then, you're going to kill him, along with my son who gave that mission to deal with the evidence.

"Your plan is truly perfect if not for the fact that Richard's bodyguard was still alive! If she had died and I found this similar way of assassination, I would believe that Yermolayev did it out of spite and killed him.

"I would never think that it was you who tricked me and killed my son. Because of that, the Empress wouldn't join hands with me as well because there wasn't any more political marriage. It allowed you to retain your position in the union.

"You are very good, Griffith Family. You're planning to remove me from power by allying with me. You use this chance to make me believe you.

"And now, I know that you are the culprit who wants to eliminate both the Royal Family and me so that you can stay in power. I bet you're going to aim for that Flora next because your grandson is favored by Flora.

"Hahaha, unfortunately for you, he lost her favor because of this incident. Serve you right, Griffith Family!" Alexej berated Mason completely, laughing because the Griffith Family received their own karma.

In Alexej's head, the union between the original Theo and Flora would give both Flora and the Griffith Family an absolute power that no one could fight in the union. They would be able to rule the base for generations ahead and no one could go against them.

But with this incident, Flora distanced herself from the original Theo since she didn't want to deal with the angry mass. She had abandoned Theo and sided with the Original Theo with this strategy, so she didn't want to taste her own medicine.

And now, the Griffith Family was cornered because Alexej also reserved some of their plots.

Mason was trying to explain the situation so that Alexej didn't ruin the entire plan they had built.

"Alexej. Listen to me. There must be someone who is trying to sow discord among us. If we're talking about this kind of plan, it must be Leonardo. No, there is a possibility that Theodore Griffith is involved in this. So, let's cool our heads down and talk about this."

Mason persuaded Alexej to the best of his ability, but Alexej simply slammed the table as his anger soared through the roof.

"Theodore Griffith? You have told everyone that Theodore Griffith has died. The only Theodore Griffith left in this world is your grandson who is with you. And now, he's not dead? Do you think I'll believe that?

"Even if we assume that Theodore Griffith is not dead, it also means you're lying to all of us this whole time by telling us that you have managed to kill Theodore Griffith. We believe you that there's no threat anymore. And we're supposed to trust you after that lie? Fuck you, Mason!"

Obviously, the Griffith Family couldn't tell the world that Theo didn't die. After all, it would smear their reputation since the Griffith Family claimed that Theo had escaped from the family because he wanted to destroy the world while the Griffith Family tried to protect it.

If they admitted that they hadn't killed Theodore Griffith, it would make the world confused, and all the people in power wouldn't believe them anymore.

That was why they had to declare the success of their mission in killing Theodore Griffith. But this ended up backfiring at this time, causing all this ruckus.

"I won't believe anything you will say to me, Mason. From now onward, you and I will be enemies. I'm going to make you pay back my son's life as well as the cooperation with the Empress!" Alexej roared as he closed the Skylink.
