Chapter 1329 Turned Around the Situation

Chapter 1329 Turned Around the Situation　　*Bam!*

Everyone dropped their jaws to the ground because they never expected that Theo would be able to move before consuming the antidote.

The crater that Theo created by slamming the princess' head to the ground was one hundred feet in radius, showing how much strength he put into it.

At the same time, there was a gust of wind that dispersed the poison residue around, cleaning this place.

However, that very gust also directly hit the Poison Princess' face, completely ruining her face.

"Tsk. As expected, it's hard to act. I need to hide my anger." Theo clicked his tongue before glaring at the Poison King. "Now, now. Let's do it your way, Poison King. You move, she's dead."

"You… How do you escape the poison?" The Poison Princess asked while glaring at Theo.

The answer came in the form of wind as the wind started scratching her face again as if he was drilling a hole.

"Aaaahhhhh!" The Poison Princess screamed in pain.

"I don't have a big mouth like you and your father, so shut up." Theo clicked his tongue.

"You bastard!" The Poison King shouted as he was releasing his dark green Magic Power. However, he couldn't move because his daughter would be killed.

Theo then used the wind to open the vial and sent the antidote to Ergene. "Take it."

"Understood." Ergene opened her mouth without hesitation as if she completely trusted Theo.

In that instant, Ergene suddenly regained the ability to move and used her Magic Power.

"Let's see… What should I do next?" Theo smirked while looking around as if he wanted to do something amusing.

"We should kill those Mythical Rank Experts and retreat from here. Since the World Martial Institute is a bitch, we can let them die here." Ergene answered with a calm expression.

"Hmm…" Theo narrowed his eyes.

Ergene stared at Theo, who somehow managed to turn the situation around. Even she didn't expect this. 'Judging by…'

As expected from the Poison King, who managed to orchestrate the whole thing, he had the same thought as Ergene.

"To think a brat like you outplay me… Judging from their expressions, it's clear that they don't know anything about this. To fool your enemies, you need to fool your allies. And by taking a hostage, you can handle the situation to your liking."

The Poison King gritted his teeth. He never expected that Theo was actually using his own tricks against him. Theo's teammates didn't know Theo was just pretending to be affected by the poison. And now that the Poison Princess was close to him, he used that chance to capture her to turn the situation around. Just like the Poison King's plan.

"How long have you planned this…" The Poison King asked in anger.

"Oh come on. Who did you invite from the Star Group?" Theo smirked.

"Joker… He has seen through my scheme that long ago?" The Poison King clenched his fists as if he wanted to kill Mark and Ergene. And to everyone's surprise, the Poison King actually leaped forth and shouted, "But you haven't realized that I don't care if she's dead or not. If she dies here, I'll just make another Poison Princess. Hahahahaha!"

Ergene tried to make a move to stop this Poison King while the people realized that it was still the end. Their hope just got shattered again since no one could defeat the Poison King.

To their surprise, there was another person's voice echoing on the battlefield.

"And you haven't realized that I'm here…"

A shadow appeared before the Poison King.

Both of them gathered their Magic Power in their fists as they punched each other. The clash of their fists caused a huge shock wave that shot upward, blowing the cloud above them.

However, what they didn't expect was that the Poison King's hand suddenly snapped in another direction before the force in that fist blew him away. His body flew for at least a quarter mile and destroyed many trees and boulders along the way.

*Bam!*

"Gah!" The Poison King spat a mouthful of blood as the excruciating pain jolted his mind.

"What had just happened?" The Poison King asked himself as he looked at his hand in horror. A single punch was all it took for him to break his bone. Although it was true that the punch caught him off guard and that he couldn't even prepare anything to block it, he could feel that the enemy was only a Supreme Rank Expert, not a Mythical Rank Expert.

He recounted his memory and remembered that the person's hand didn't even touch him as if he was covered with a thin screen.

Meanwhile, the rest of the people were stunned as well.

Alea dropped her jaw as this was the first time she saw someone with the Magic Power of a Supreme Rank Expert crush someone who was ranked 24th in the world.

'Who is he?' Alea asked inwardly, looking at this person.

'He is… Isn't he the guy from the Poison Princess?' Ana thought while looking at the man. The clothes he used came from the Poison Princess, so it was clear that he was her guard. And if she didn't remember it wrong, this person should be a Mythical Rank Expert, not a Supreme Rank Expert.

'Who is he? Judging by his looks, he seems to be familiar with the Star Group… but didn't he say…' Phyrill gulped down as if he could see through the man's real identity.

The Poison Princess recognized this man since she had called him a few days ago. When the incident happened, he told her that he was sleeping due to poison.

She thought it was the World Martial Institute, but she soon came to a realization.

"That incident from a few days ago… It was you, right, Joker?!" The Poison Princess finally called the name.

It turned out the one who died a few days ago wasn't just one. Both of them died due to the assassination. Joker immediately replaced one of them while the other one remained there, shifting their focus from him.

And due to the distance that occurred after the distrust, they wouldn't expect that Joker was among them.

The man smirked and said, "It seems that there's no point in acting anymore."
