The third problem was Theo. He had gone for a long time and still couldn't return. Meanwhile, they had promised these people his tutelage.
Although the promise could wait until the next battle was done, they still needed to see Theo to assure them. Because Theo didn't appear in this battle, they would question their group.
pàпdá-ňᴏνêι.сóМ And when that happened, they might rally the mass to question Theo himself.
Even though this was for the sake of humanity, their group was also trying to defend themselves from the same humans they tried to protect.
Agata didn't know what to say anymore. This was the reason why Theo didn't like humanity as a whole.
"This is truly ridiculous. I guess greed is the number one sin in the world. It can move people forward, but it also can destroy them. And this time, if we don't carefully explain it to them, Theo will lose his influence."
Agata clutched her head, stressed out because of this problem.
"What should I do now…" Agata sighed while looking at the ceiling, wondering what Theo would do in this situation. Although she was trying to be independent, she truly wanted Theo to return right now so that he could lead them again.
…
On the other side of the world, Theo was working on the tunnel that linked this world and the other world. They had the locations, but the structure wasn't completed yet.
In the past, there were a total of ten structures that supported the tunnel. And there were a thousand gates to the other world.
Meanwhile, the current problem was that they wanted to form just a single tunnel. Because there was only one single tunnel, they didn't need to create so many supports in order to connect the two worlds.
But still, it was far bigger than the ten structures in the past.
The structure itself was almost complete. The size was three times bigger than a single structure, but this should be enough to create a support strong enough to handle the tunnel.
Theo was in charge of the creation of the support pillar and made sure there was nothing wrong with it. On the other hand, the Space Saint handled the creation of the teleportation circle to bring them to the other world.
After some trials and errors, the Space Saint finally found the formula to reach the other side. It was proven by the structure itself.
He felt that the tunnel was being wrapped by something. Although he couldn't reach the other side, it was still far enough for him to be able to sense the end goal.
So, the Space Saint believed that if they managed to complete the structure, they could reach the other side.
Of course, the Space Saint's complexion was worse than when he started this project. It wasn't because he was tired, but because he felt the pressure from the others.
Theo's words had been in his mind this whole time. There was always a question that kept ringing in his ears.
'What if his choice is wrong?'
He feared that the moment they realized it was a mistake to live in the other world, they would come to bite him.
And since Theo didn't have any plan to go to the other side, there was no way to return to this side.
That was why he kept thinking about whether this was the correct choice or not.
Meanwhile, Theo's influence seemed to be growing and growing even further in this place.
He glanced to the side and saw the monsters greeting Theo.
In the past, they were skeptical about Theo's presence and kept observing him. However, Theo continued working hard for their sake and the result was also shown.
So, the monsters were grateful that despite being kidnapped by them, Theo still wholeheartedly helped them.
Even two World Class Monsters wondered if they should help Theo in his fight or not. Unfortunately, they still had to lead their people, so they dropped the idea.
Theo understood their reason and didn't mind about it. He would be lying if he wasn't disappointed, but they had reached an agreement.
In exchange for his help, there would be a team that would help Theo with his errands.
Theo used them to gather all the remaining humanity that managed to survive. The search team kept expanding its range.
Theo felt happy that there would be three thousand people that would help him in the next battle. And to thank him for his contribution, he had agreed that he would teleport all these people when they returned.
Although this was just the beginning, the fact that the monsters showed some kindness to the humans and the humans tried to help them while waiting for their time to return meant a lot to Theo. After all, there was a chance that they didn't have to shed any more blood in the future.
Of course, because these people had been surviving in the wild this whole time, it was clear that every single one of them was a veteran. He even found three more Kings among these people. They were ranked 30th, 38th, and 40th, respectively.
Of course, the monsters also handed Theo the material and skill cards they found along the way. This way, they could use the materials to fund their next battle while using the rest of the cards to upgrade everyone's ability.
In other words, Theo would be bringing three thousand elites to help with the monsters.
Theo had also created a plan with Loki and Hel.
Although the people were sad that they couldn't go to the base right away since they were Theo's trump card, they were already grateful enough to Theo since he would help them leave this dangerous life. He even showed that the monsters were not as dangerous as they claimed to be.
He might not be able to grasp everyone's heart, but it didn't mean that he couldn't command all of them.
This was one of Theo's trump cards for the upcoming battle. And obviously, it wasn't enough to fight against the slime. How many more trump cards had Theo prepared for the battle? No one could answer that question.
