Rea saw Theo's distorted expression before realizing something. 'No, wait. Teacher has been asking Maya to make weapons… Don't tell me; he wanted to stay in Kentucky because he wanted to solve this problem.
'He predicted that Kentucky would be in a better position to handle the problems that came from the sea. That's why he planned to turn Kentucky into a fort.
'In other words, everything had been moving the way he expected it? Why does Teacher think about it right now if that's the case? Is there something different from his original expectation?'
Rea fell into deep thought as well, trying to find what Theo was thinking.
After a few minutes, Theo opened his mouth, saying, "Rea. Tell Maya to speed up the process for the weapons."
"I'll inform her as soon as we get a signal." Rea nodded with a serious expression. "As expected, the threat is coming to us?"
"I don't know yet. There might be a small cataclysm in all areas… For now, I'll just inform the others about it since there is no proof about it happening yet."
"Understood. Do we stand a chance against this problem? It's not like a second apocalypse, right?"
"I don't think so, but it might be bigger than the radiation problem. There are simply too many things that have to be done to stop the entire process…"
Theo pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling troubled. "Still, it's coming too fast."
"What do you mean? Why is that a problem?"
"Our planet is filled with water, no? In the past, people say the sea is actually as mysterious as outer space. What do you think will happen to this mysterious sea after merging with the creatures from the other side?"
"The water creatures from the other side…" Rea contemplated for a moment. "It seems we're living in the worst era."
Agata, who heard their conversation, couldn't help but add her own speculation. "The monsters have completely blocked out the sea due to their numbers. There are even more creatures in the sea than in the land. And if all those creatures come out together to attack only the humans, there's a small chance that the humans can survive.
"That's why informing other bases is necessary and keep a lookout on all coasts to check what's happening to them right now. With it, we can see the scale of this cataclysm.
"As for what happened inside the sea, it's pretty obvious that the sea creatures will reach a higher position. In the past, sea animals couldn't do anything when we polluted their water with trash. But with the strength they've gained from the apocalypse and the addition of the sea monsters, they have the chance to fight back right now.
"And we're talking about the King Class or even World Class Monsters that can lead all those sea creatures to attack us. In other words, they have the number, strength, and brain to conquer the land.
"If this continues, the sea creatures will surely launch an all-out attack on the people on the land. In the past, we threw trash… but this time, they're going to trash us."
"…" Rea was speechless because the problem seemed to be bigger than she imagined. No wonder Theo was panicking.
Even though Theo had become a Saint, it was still impossible to stop all these creatures by himself. If they weren't careful, humanity would go extinct after this.
"Haha. Humans destroyed nature in the past and now we're getting wrecked by our mistakes." Rea chuckled. "Still, I'm surprised that you can fight for humanity even after experiencing all that."
Theo shrugged and said, "Well, you can say I'm doing this for humanity. At the same time, I'm also doing it for myself."
"Yourself?"
Theo held Agata's hands and looked at her gently. "I want to live together with her, but there's no way I'm so insane that I don't mind the rest of the humans dying. Nonetheless, we're social creatures, so it's impossible for us to live together without the help of other humans.
"Even if we don't care about it, humanity has to survive in my ideal world. If I want to live peacefully in the future, I have to save them right now." Theo smiled.
"Though I remembered you saying shit about humans like how they're hypocritical, idiotic, greedy, prideful and so on." Agata smirked.
"Haha, the edgy me…" Theo chuckled. "Though, I only stated the fact."
"Can't deny that." Agata chuckled. Of course, Theo had made sure that no one heard their conversation or it would be a big problem. Only Theo, Agata, and Rea could hear their conversation.
Theo looked at Agata while holding her hand. "I'm sorry, but it seems that I have to make you wait longer."
"It's fine, it's fine. You don't have to worry. Compared to others, we're still too young. I mean, look at Rea, she is still single."
"How about sharing your fiance?" Rea sneered back.
"Oh, it seems she likes a taboo relationship between a student and a teacher. Though I had once talked about sharing him with other women, you know. He was the one rejecting the idea." Agata chuckled.
"Come on. Don't talk about it anymore. You know I don't like it." Theo shook his head. "Should I seal your mouth to prevent you from talking about it ever again?"
"Hoh? How do you plan to seal my mouth?" Agata pointed at her lips as if asking him for a kiss.
However, Theo dropped a bomb by saying, "How about marriage?"
"Hmm… WHAT?!" Agata dropped her jaw in shock, not believing what she had just heard.
"Mhm." Theo nodded, confirming it. "Well, we have to wait for this kind of flight to be commercialized so that we can bring your parents back and forth to witness our marriage. So, we have to wait for another two to three years, I guess? In the meantime, I'll try to solve as many problems as possible so that no one will bother us in the future. I hope you can take care of the preparation for me. How about that?"
"You truly… dropped a bomb just like that…" Agata was speechless. However, she conveyed her happiness by holding his cheeks and kissing him, answering his question.
