Chapter 1097 Split?

Chapter 1097 Split?　　"Heh?" Isaac smirked, hearing Theo's suggestion. "That's interesting. Do you know how thirsty I am for knowledge?"

"Yeah. I don't really mind." Theo shrugged. "In fact, you might not understand anything and already see something new…"

"Haha. I'm in. This is truly interesting because you're giving me the 'go' signal to observe you and your power. I'm curious about the different colors in Magic Power."

"Whether I have it or not, I won't spoil anything. All I give you is permission to observe me. That's all."

"It's fine. That alone is enough. Even without you showing anything, I'm rather curious about your current strength, especially your identity." Isaac nodded with a smile. "If you don't mind me searching for that answer, then I can keep myself busy for a while."

"Though, there are two conditions." Theo raised two fingers.

"Oh? Let's hear it."

"First, you're to report your findings every month. Second, you can't betray me. Break one of these, and I'll hold you accountable."

"The first one is fine for me since you've given me the permission. Maybe I can also find something new from your expression, word, or reaction. As for the second thing, I have acknowledged you as my boss. There's no need for that threat anymore." He shrugged, not caring about wrestling his life.

"That's good then." Theo nodded with a calm expression. However, he was smiling inwardly.

He had planned to make some diaries so that he didn't drown in the numerous realities, so having Isaac observe him would be useful. To put it simply, Isaac became a living diary.

His insight and observation would make him check the current situation and whether he had changed or not.

In addition, if he compared it to his own diary, the accuracy would increase exponentially. This was why Theo decided to do it.

"I don't need to say this, but I need to remind you. There's no need for you to observe me when I'm going on a mission. Just focus on building your strength and understanding. I often leave for a few months after all."

"That's true. Don't worry about it. If you keep giving me new things, I need time to get my research done… Though, I truly hope that you are not getting boring soon." Isaac smiled.

"Heh. You might get tired researching it or even die from overworking." Theo waved his hand, nonchalantly brushing Isaac's threat.

"Anyway, we've killed the dragon. I think we should talk about the current situation." Isaac rose from the ground and looked at Maya, who was helping Mark walk. They were walking toward them as soon as Isaac finished his conversation with Theo.

Although she didn't know Theo that much, Maya was still aware of the slight change in his expression. She picked up the feeling she almost forgot when she hunted with Theo and Agata.

From time to time, Theo seemed to become someone else, and the next thing she knew he had gained some enlightenment. Normally, it would be about training. However, if she actually came from Thersland, she would know that wasn't the case.

This was what happened to Theo's previous comrades. He was the one suggesting the distorted relationship that could actually make the group progress by leaps and bounds.

In other words, Theo must have calculated everything in his mind and confidently proceeded with the suggestion, knowing it would be the most beneficial relationship they had.

"How is your body?" Isaac asked Mark, who had exhausted all his Magic Power.

"There are some injuries, but I should recover in one or two days. As for the burning mark, I will wrap it for now and have the Star Group treat me after we come back." Mark explained with a smile.

"Magic Power?"

"Some recovery and a good night's sleep will do the trick. I should be able to continue tomorrow."

"That's good then. I have decided to spend the entire day hunting the monster. Now that we have killed it, we should return to the gap and get some rest. Tomorrow, we will start gathering some resources to increase our strength," said Theo while glancing at Maya. "How is your ammunition?"

"To be honest, I'm going to be useless soon. Because of the dragon and the assassins, I have used around 80 percent of my total ammunition. If we are going to continue hunting them, even if I use them sparingly, I can only last for around three days. The island is predicted to stay on the surface for 11 days, so I will be useless for the last few days." Maya sighed. "I should have modified the boat more and brought my armor here…"

"Nah, it's fine. You can use them sparingly. Don't forget that we're here to get some resources, not kill the monsters. Besides, if you don't have ammunition, it means more chances for me to kill the monsters." Theo shrugged, not caring about Maya's situation since it was also convenient for him.

"Okay. In that case, I will become this group's bag. At the very least, I am still strong enough to carry some items." Maya nodded.

"Oi, oi. How can you even treat yourself as a bag? You should treat yourself better, Maya." Isaac waved his hands a few times, trying to calm Maya down.

"Isaac. Don't forget that before I'm a woman, I am an expert from the Starry Group. My life is equal to yours, so I should work as hard as the others. Besides, compared to my work in the company, this much is nothing. Don't underestimate me so much." Maya snorted, feeling a bit offended.

"Ah, okay. I apologize then." Isaac looked away, feeling awkward.

"Anyway, I think it's time to see our loot. How do you want to split this? Since this is the first Mythical Rank Monster that we encounter, you should decide whether you want to harvest this monster or turn it into cards." Theo shifted their attention to the dragon.

Maya thought for a moment and shook her head. "You did the most, so you should decide. In fact, you should take everything… After all, without you, we wouldn't be able to defeat the monster, and the island would sink soon."

"That's true. Even if we helped you, without your power, we couldn't defeat the dragon at all." Isaac nodded in agreement. "I'm already satisfied with just knowing the different Magic Power to be honest… I don't really need any more rewards."

Mark nodded in agreement, sharing the same intention. "There was also the divination. So, I think you should take everything, Joker."

Theo sighed and finally touched the corpse, turning it into cards. "In that case, I won't be polite."
