Chapter 773 Youâre Not Plotting A Civil War, Right?
When Thirteen arrived at the cafe, he headed straight to the VIP Room especially reserved for important customers of the cafe.
There, he found Joshua sharing a table with Clark, Char, and Vincent.
The five of them had all agreed to meet in this location after the tournament was over, so they could properly discuss their next course of action.
"How are you feeling, Joshua?" Thirteen asked before sitting beside the Sage of the Hero Party, who seemed to finally let go of the burden he'd been carrying for the past few days.
"Better," Joshua replied. Thirteen nodded. "Good. So, what are your plans now?"
The teenage boy wanted to know what Joshua planned to do now that he was no longer a part of the Hero Party.
"I'm thinking of accepting Paimon's invitation to train in her domain for a year," Joshua answered. Hearing Joshua's reply, Clark, Char, and Vincent couldn't help but look at him in a new light.
"You're going to the territory of a Majin Princess?" Clark asked. "Are you not afraid of being eaten by them?"
"Will her subordinates really eat me?" Joshua asked Zion. He initially thought that he would be safe since he was only going to Paimon's territory to train.
"They certainly can," Thirteen replied. "Paimon is their leader, but not all Jinns and Majins can resist the temptation of having a delicious Wanderer like you wandering around their territory. So, I advise you not to go there unless you are with me."
Joshua frowned, but since even Zion wasn't confident that Paimon's subordinates wouldn't touch him, he decided to put his decision to go to the Majin Princess' territory to train on hold.
"Then, do you have any recommendations?" Joshua asked.
"Of course, I'm sure," Thirteen replied. "Don't you know? Without Extras, society will collapse. They are the workforce of the world, and without them, even Wanderers will find it hard to live in both worlds."
Clark, one of the smartest people in their group, suddenly realized what Thirteen was aiming for.
"Wait, are you trying to gather those Thrill Seekers? Those who want to climb the highest mountains and those who like to go to places normal people won't dare to go to? Those kinds of people?!"
"Exactly." Thirteen gave Clark a thumbs up. "We need those kinds of people, especially those who have failed to become Wanderers."
Joshua also realized what Thirteen was planning to do and couldn't help but suck in a deep breath.
After spending some time in the Domain of the Apocalypse, he met Metatron.
The young man had a feeling that Metatron was a deity with vast powers that rivaled that of Laplace Demon, and possibly even "The One."
If the idea that suddenly popped up inside his mind was what Zion was thinking, then he had no doubt in his mind that the Knights of the Apocalypse would be a terrifying organization in the future.
"Last but not the least, I want Clark, Char, and Vincent to recommend some people who have potential from the Monarch Clans and the Prestigious Families," Thirteen stated. "I plan to recruit one from each of them. "Of course, you no longer need to introduce other representatives from your families. The three of you already have that spot."
A pin-drop silence descended upon the room as the teenagers looked at Zion Leventis, who had a devilish smile plastered on his face.
"You're not plotting a Civil War, are you?" Char asked. "You're not planning to make us the Patriarchs of our respective families, Right?"
Instead of answering her question, Thirteen only leaned back on his chair and closed his eyes.
He was afraid that if he kept his eyes open, Clark, Char, Vincent, and Joshua would be able to see a side of him that would probably make the four of them wish that they had never come across Zion Leventis in their lifetime.
