"Hmmm.. It looks like I came a little late!" Lucius. When he reached the scene, Theo killed Bethany.
"And I would like to finish this woman with my own hands!" Added Lucius. He stared at Bethany's lifeless body.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier when you were transmitting? I could've told you about the dessert!" Theo replied, while cleaning his right hand that was still covered in blood.
"Forget over! At least being able to see him die in such an astonishing manner like this, that was more than enough!"
"You didn't kill him right away, did you?" Ask Lucius.
"Haha.. Of course not! I brought the hell of despair to him first before killing him!" Answer Theo casually.
"I'll explain the details to you!" Theo added, as soon as he saw Lucius' curious facial expression upon hearing his last words.
"Braveheart Lucius!"
Theo and Lucius were about to continue the conversation until suddenly the voice of a woman sounded.
"Ohhh.. Miss Hella! Long time no see! How are you?" Lucius asked, after seeing the figure of Hella.
"Very good! If there's free time, I want to do a rematch with you!" Hella. While lifting the Ice Spear in his hand.
"Hmmm.. It looks like you found a good weapon! Let me guess, that was Theo's gift?" Ask Lucius. While glancing towards Theo.
"A totally unrelated question!" Hella answered, refusing to answer Lucius's question.
"I don't know how you met Theo, ended up being his companion. However, if I had a choice, I would be very interested in doing the same! It seemed like he always had an endless stock of precious items!" Lucius. Now change to look at Gerel who also began to walk closer.
"And who is this young lady?" Ask Lucius.
Hearing Lucius' question, Gerel seemed not to care much, seemed to have no intention of answering.
"He is Gerel Khan! First young miss of the Barbarian Tribe!" Answer Theo.
Theo's reply, immediately made Lucius frown, before continuing with him looking back at Theo with a thoughtful gaze.
"It seems like my decision to accept the alliance offer a few years ago, has really been very appropriate!" Lucius Mumbled.
"Stop saying non-essential pleasantries! Hows it? Did you accept my challenge?" Ask Hella again. When he saw Lucius, he began to ignore him.
"Young lady! Please keep your tone!"
Lucius had not had time to answer Hella's question until a hoarse voice of an old man who was in tandem with the appearance of a heavy aura was very pressing, suddenly present not far at the location where Theo's group was talking.
"Greetings elder!" Said Theo quickly, cupping his hands. Salute in one direction.
While Hella and Gerel were distressed by the heavy aura, they immediately followed looking in the direction where Theo was saluting. However, all the two of them saw was empty air.
"Although you are the young miss of the House of Asgard! But know your limits!"
While Hella and Gerel were still staring into the empty air, a man was as old as he was in an instant and without giving any ripple of presence before him. He appeared in front of both.
"Lucius is now the Lord of the Braveheart House! So, if you want to challenge! You should at least be in the same position! Only your father, the current Lord of the House Asgard, has the standing as well as the qualifications to challenge him!"
"Greetings to the First Sacred Ancestor!" Lucius said, greeting the same hand as Theo did as soon as he saw the figure that had just been present.
"Old Ancestor! It's just a small misunderstanding! This friend of mine must not have known that now Lucius is a Lord!" Answer Theo.
"I know it! All I said was just a simple word of advice!" Answer the First Ancestor.
"Lucius, instead of continuing to talk here, you better welcome them in the main hall of the House!"
"After all, they are important guests who play a big role in saving our House from destruction! If it wasn't for young master Theo, me and the other ancestors would not have been able to make it in time!" Said the First Ancestor.
"So so! Sure was! Young master Theo, please!" Lucius. Now understand that Theo is the person behind the escape of the sacred ancestors from the combined group of ancestors House Estrabat and Helsinsberg.
"Do I now have to call you my Master?" Theo asked, while putting a simple smile on Lucius.
"Hahhaha.. Especially for you, no need! After all, once you got engaged to Aria, even though we all know it was just a political move, but I know very well my sister really hoped for you, and ever since, since then, it has been a political move, I already consider you a sister-in-law!" Answer Lucius. Put on the same simple smile.
"To be honest, right now I don't know if you're really sincere about saying that or not!" Answer Theo. The simple smile on his face turned into a faint smile.
"Hahhahhahha….!!!!"
Hearing Theo's words, Lucius gave no answer, only started walking forward with a loud laugh.
On the other hand, Theo now sees one of the cliff tops not far from the location. On top of the cliff, Belladona looked at him with a gaze as if giving a report that his task had been completed.
In response, Theo returned Belladona's gaze with a brief nod. Which was immediately greeted by Belladona withdrawing his existence. It became as bright as a black shadow that disappeared in an instant.

(The next day, the main hall of House Braveheart)
Led directly by Lucius, the House Braveheart group welcomes Theo and Hella and Gerel to a lavish banquet.
"Sister-in-law! I have good news!" Theo. When the banquet is running.
"Ohh... What is it?" Ask Lucius.
"Last night I received a letter from my father! In his letter, he reported that House Estrabat had been destroyed!" Theo.
Hearing that, the main hall that had previously become quiet once Theo said he wanted to convey a news, immediately became boisterous. Everyone present at the banquet cheered wildly. Completely satisfied with the news they heard.
"Life House Braveheart!"
"Life House Alknight!"
Calls of glory echoed filled the hall. The atmosphere of the banquet instantly became increasingly lively. All members of the Braveheart House now felt that the alliance relationship Lucius made a few years ago with the House of Alknight was a brilliant move.
"What a fortune to House we have friends like House Alknight!" Said one of the elders present.
"That's right! Lord Lucius truly had sharp eyes and vision!" The other elder.
This festive situation persisted for a long time until then the main chatter continued on how the alliance would continue in the future.
In this topic, Theo who understood that House Braveheart was in decline, suggested that they follow House Alknight's move to do personal business with Gaia Son Pavilion.
Sold some of House Braveheart's exclusive resources to Gaia Treasure. Making Gaia Treasure as a supplier and also a distributor of their merchandise.
Theo promised, will help House Braveheart make a trade deal that will not harm them at all with Gaia Treasure.
In addition to the issue of trade deals, Theo also suggested that House Braveheart publicly declare that they are currently in an alliance relationship with House Alknight.
That way, when there are others who intend to take advantage of the declining House Braveheart position, then they will think twice.
Taking the example of House Estrabat destroyed by House Alknight, now no one will act rashly. If you don't want to end up with House Estrabat.
