"Theo has lost!"

"Huh?" Agata tilted her head in confusion. "I'm not sure what you're talking about."

Agata misunderstood his words. She thought Theo had lost the upcoming battle. So, it was weird since there was no way Theo would lose before the battle even began.

Felix seemed to realize that his words couldn't get through to her, so he explained his sentence with a question. "May I ask you… After you meet him, have you seen him lose?"

"!!!" Agata widened her eyes in shock. There were only two occasions that might fit the criteria of losing.

The first one would be when Theo defeated Nella and ended up falling unconscious. His team got defeated by the rest of Nella's team.

However, Theo had explained to her how he actually won by getting third place. She could understand that being at the top would require a lot of power. So, reaching that position was enough for Theo to start his journey to get stronger.

Then, the second time Theo faced defeat was when he fought against the Griffith Family when he was still in Italy.

Back then, Theo was still a Supreme Rank Expert and had no strength to resist the Griffith Family.

But Agata couldn't consider this as a defeat since Theo clearly wanted to escape and use a new identity to get stronger. It was simply according to his plan instead of his defeat.

After thinking about these two events, Agata came to realize that Theo never lost a battle. Even when he was at a disadvantage, the best the opponent could do was a draw.

"…" Agata pinched the bridge of her nose. Although she couldn't put it into words, she could understand why Felix was acting like this.

"It seems that you have understood it." Felix raised his hand gently before clenching it. "I have never seen him lose to an opponent. I've always felt like this…'Everything is fine because he is here. We will win as long as he is getting involved in one way or another. Everything will be going according to the plan.'

"But I have never thought about this, 'What if he is not here? What if we can't win because he's not involved in this fight? What if our defeat is due to the lack of his plan?'

"After seeing the video and his defeat, I have realized all this. And what makes it worse is that… It feels so normal that it never once occurred to me. What if we're fighting against something that he can't defeat?"

Felix's expression turned grim as if he was holding a huge burden. This was the burden of a leader.

As someone who had followed Theo the longest in the group, Felix knew how much power Theo held in this group. He was their absolute king.

Now that he had to take on this burden, he felt a bit nauseous. He shook his head helplessly while saying in a disappointed tone. "I'm so pathetic. Even though he has told me to never show my weak side because the group will be lost if they see me like this…"

"I'm not a part of the group." Agata could finally understand how much burden Felix had on his shoulders. She obviously had to assure him. "Don't worry, Felix. Thanks to you, I can understand how severe this matter is. It seems that I underestimated the situation a little bit. I have to adjust a few things."

Felix looked at Agata before raising his blade. "I am Theo's blade. My purpose is to kill the enemy. Because he's not here, you're the one who has this blade. That's why…"

Felix straightened his back and stated with conviction. "I might not be a great leader, but please don't hesitate to use me as you see fit. I shall kill anyone even if it costs me my life."

Agata smiled. "I understand. Thank you for your support this whole time. I know how heavy the burden you are carrying right now. But I can assure you that the only one who is qualified to take on this burden is you, Felix. Let's work together, shall we?"

"Yes." Felix nodded with a smile.

After that talk, Felix immediately headed back to prepare himself for the incoming fight. Meanwhile, Agata had to find Rea to make some adjustments to their plans.

Maya had gone to the beggar association to give the proposal to them so that they could join the fight to ensure the base's safety.

On the other hand, Millie and Eleanor started working in their information network while Akbar tried to handle the officials. He was the master of information, including the one for blackmail.

He planned to unleash everything to either negotiate or threaten them. Of course, he didn't plan to bring a lot of commanders to their side since the enemies might be among them.

As for Nella, she had gone back to the Griffith Family. She was also curious about how the call went since it was a sign of improvement in their relationship.

Of course, Nella didn't forget about her original objective, which was to help Theo's group. Like Rea predicted, Ray and Valerie were a bit too worked up as they caused a ruckus here and there.

She knew they just wanted to prepare everything possible, but the more panicked one was, the more they would lose important detail. So, Nella had to stop them and calm them down before helping with the preparation.

This was the first time Theo's group fought against a strong enemy without him leading them. He once asked Rea to become a leader, but he had prepared letters to ensure that Rea was on the right path.

But this time, they didn't know whether they were going in the right direction or not.

That was why they got a bit worked up, not wanting to mess this up and embarrass Theo.

And that was where Agata and Felix came. They made sure that everything went according to the plan and that no one overdid their preparation.
