Another World Mall-Chapter 972: Great Grandson and Grandma

"That’s true, but I have to correct one part. Your grandfather indeed knows the plan, but he’s not hiding you from me because of this plan. He is hiding you from the Prophet."

"And why is that?" Clovis frowned.

"Because you are an anomaly. Have you heard of what happened after your birth?"

"!!!" Clovis remembered his grandfather had told him one thing. When his mother gave birth to him, his father saw a panel that he had never seen before.

[Player 00002 - Online]

It looked like Gerald had told everything to Michael. As someone who knew something about this system, Michael chose to hide Clovis.

"Do you mean the system?" Clovis asked.

"It looks like he has told you about it." Silvia had a smile on her face, but she expressed sadness rather than happiness. "I have been questioning the existence of the system this whole time.

"It looks like the reason your grandmother died is that same system."

"!!!" Clovis raised his eyebrows. "What do you mean?"

"After tracking the Prophet for a few decades, I have come to the conclusion that the Prophet doesn’t move simply because he has a grudge or something.

"Since we’re using code theory, this means the world treats the Prophet like an administrator whose purpose is to hunt down any individuals that can change the world or break this world’s concept."

Clovis was taken aback. "Do you mean he has received some sort of mission from the system?"

"Most likely. However, this is all just a guess."

Even though it was just a guess, it was pretty convincing based on everything he had known so far.

Clovis turned to the board again. "So, Vina is your first plan, and you’re using her to make me step outside my own zone. I may have interacted with Vina a lot, but the interaction that is going according to your plan is the competition against Stefany."

"Indeed. Thanks to your participation, your existence has been tracked by the Prophet," she confirmed calmly. "However, I don’t plan to put you in danger that you can’t handle. And that’s why..."

"My mom told me about Steven. Your Steven."

"Indeed."

Clovis was surprised more and more. Everything had been planned from the start. "The choice of the nation where this competition happens..."

Clovis saw the map of the East. There were several countries on it.

He noticed that the country where the Three Swords belonged and the country where the RAID resided actually pinched a certain country. There was one country that simply separated them.

At the same time, this also meant that these two countries could join hands to suppress this one country.

"Don’t tell me, the first special tower I’m going to is in..." Clovis pointed at the country between those two countries. "Here. Easton. You expect me to bring both the Three Swords and RAID under me so that they can help me."

Silvia smiled. "I guess I don’t have to explain it to you. Your mind truly works like your grandmother’s."

Clovis contemplated. The plan had been set in motion. The moment the war broke out, he could ask the RAID and the Three Swords to help him to suppress Easton. This would allow him to enter the country undetected and use their connection to get into the special tower.

In the meantime, the rest of the people were to hold back the enemy’s invasion.

Silvia asked, "Once you are able to enter that country, I have a contact that can lead your group to this special tower."

Clovis crossed his arms. "Still, this war is caused by me. At least, that’s what the people will think of. And you expect me to leave the country when they’re fending themselves off? I’m not a traitor."

"You are not." Silvia shook her head. Her calm demeanor showed that she had expected this reaction as well. "Look again. I have left the clue over there."

Clovis was confused. He took a step back to get a better view of the overall plan.

It was at this time that he noticed one thing.

"This." Clovis pointed at a certain image. "Curea. Don’t tell me, you want me to bring them in as reinforcement. This was your plan all along?"

He had turned Curea into his ally with Silvia’s help. He thought it was for the sake of this assembly.

But he was wrong. Curea became his ally for this war, not the assembly.

By inviting Curea, Absalom could say that Clovis was on a secret mission. And by bringing Curea in and striking the enemy from behind, he would be hailed as a hero instead.

Silvia smiled. "That’s right. However, that’s not all. First, you have to enter that tower. Once you’re able to enter that tower, the Prophet will know about it."

"And he will definitely send people to stop me." Clovis nodded in understanding. "As a result, our enemy will be weakened and ready to be stabbed in the back."

"Do you have any complaints now?" Silvia asked. With a clear plan like this, Clovis should accept that this was the best course of action.

His great-grandmother had made a plan not only to get the most profit but also to be careful enough for his safety.

Clovis should have no objections.

However, Clovis didn’t instantly agree with her. He took another look at the plan as well as the map.

He noticed one important piece that Silvia had missed.

"Great-grandmother. Your plan is good and I have no objection, but I think I want to add something else. It won’t be double insurance, but triple insurance."

"Hoh? And what is this insurance?"

Clovis pointed at the country on top of their target.

"I don’t see any way to connect it."

Clovis smiled and whispered to her the connection.

When she heard it, Silvia’s body shook. "But it’s not guaranteed."

"Well, time will tell. Aren’t you gathering information not because it’s guaranteed but because there might be a time to use it?" Clovis smirked. "I don’t mind following your plan, but I don’t plan to completely become a pawn of yours. I need you to do something for me as well."

Silvia suddenly grinned with excitement. "Hahaha. Now, you are looking more and more like the true Hacfield. You are truly my great-grandson."
