Chapter 1408 Ally's Reaction

After a whole day, the whole world finally knew what happened in Italy as well as Joker's real identity.

The United States.

The Time God and the president had a little talk about this sudden movement.

"What do you think about this, Turner?" The president asked with a serious expression. The Star Group seemed to have distanced itself from the government and Theo had cut the relationship off with the government. So, they could turn their back on them without hesitation.

The Time God simply closed his eyes and spoke nonchalantly. "There's nothing you can do. Your relationship right now is not good or bad. So, there's no need to do anything because he's not a person who will bite you without any provocations from your side. Besides, even though you two are not an ally, you can be considered a friend."

"Hmm…" The president narrowed his eyes.

"The one you should worry about right now is the next president. You have governed for two terms, so it's time for you to step down. It's better to warn the next president not to bother him." The Time God advised.

As someone who had met Theo, what the Time God said was certainly a fact. Theo only wanted to maintain the balance like the Time God. He didn't have to rule a certain country and he wouldn't bite unless provoked.

"I see. I'll think about it." He nodded with a serious expression.

"I just want to tell you this one thing. Never aim for his comrades." The Time God raised his finger to strengthen his point. "If push comes to shove, Theo can disappear. Don't forget about his clone. No one knows that he's living by using the clone or it's his real body. When he disappears, you won't find him. And the next thing you realize, the country will be on the path of ruin."

"…" The president's expression turned grim. Just like the Griffith Family, there was a chance that Theo would fake his death again. He didn't know whether Theo was someone who would abandon his people or not when it was clear to be a trap. If Theo chose to abandon everything and take revenge in the future, the country would surely be ruined.

If Theo became a top ten expert, there would be an immortal saint that couldn't be defeated unless they found his real body. And unless all the top ten experts joined hands with him, they wouldn't be able to defeat Theo.

It was clear the Sword Saint wouldn't become Theo's enemy, so it was better not to step on a lion's tail.

"I see." The president nodded with a serious expression.

…

Japan.

As expected, after knowing about Joker's identity, Japan's Prime Minister, Okumura Isamu, visited the Sword Saint.

He was staring at the Sword Saint, who calmly sipped his tea.

"It seems that your investment has paid off. I can understand why you do all that much to Joker."

The Sword Saint smiled. "I didn't do much. I was also as shocked as you when I learned about his identity. I never thought that Joker would be Theodore Griffith. Back then, Theodore Griffith only had the experience and knowledge from his grandfather, the War Saint. But this time, he has gotten the strength and people to complete all tasks. If someone wants to harm him…"

The Prime Minister remained silent for a moment before asking, "And where will you point that sword?"

The Sword Saint squinted his eyes as his face turned grim. "Don't worry. My blade is for the country."

The Prime Minister closed his eyes as if he was thinking about his decision. After two minutes, he opened his mouth. "Alright. Japan will support Theodore Griffith."

"A wise choice."

…

There was one more person that had been enjoying his life after knowing Theo wanted to stay in Italy.

He was none other than Italy's Prime Minister.

"You should have told me about this a few years ago, Leonardo." He let out a long sigh. "My job would have been easier. Look! There are many organizations, companies, and countries trying to contact your grandson."

"Hahahahaha!" Leonardo laughed out loud, taking pride in his grandson.

"It seems that the War God Family doesn't lack a successor."

"No. The War God Family successor is Marzio's son, Lorenzo."

"He's not going to be your successor?"

"Nope. He is sick of family, so he won't become a part of the War God Family. Instead, he will create one for himself." Leonardo shook his head.

"I see. But he will remain in Italy, right?"

"Of course."

The prime minister sighed. "There were two people that could elevate the country's name in the past. One is the pope and the other one is you. But right now, there are two additional Transcendent Level Mythical Rank Experts, Felix Holt and Ruth Lukita.

"And I can't forget their leader, Theodore Griffith, a guy who can clone himself and wield the same power. The fact he can kill Airvans Lockens and Eric Griffith means that he's already in the top one hundred experts in the world. But the most terrifying thing is the rabbit that always stays with him. To think there's a King Class Monster staying with him.

"This makes his group the strongest group in Italy. The power balance is going to tip over, especially if he wants to revolt, the military can't do anything about it." The prime minister pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling troubled.

On the one hand, he was happy that Italy got those people. On the other hand, the stability of the country was threatened by their existence.

Normally, if the War God Family tried to do something big, he would ally with the pope to restrain the War God Family and vice versa, keeping the balance. But even if they allied with both of them, he still couldn't stop Theo.

The lack of stability might impact the economy and politics, so he wondered what to do. Although the chance was low, the fact that Theo could launch a coup d'etat alone would impact the country severely. That was why he asked Leonardo to meet him.

"First of all, you should ride the wave of his popularity. Right now, there's going to be a huge rise in your country and it's your opportunity to raise it as much as possible." Leonardo advised.

"Yeah. I guess I'll do that for now. I hope that the people's sentiments won't change so soon." He nodded.
