After that meeting, the president closed his eyes and leaned to his seat, sighing. "I wonder if I have made the right choice or not…"
Han Xinyan and Zhou Yu, who guarded him, looked at him with troubled expressions because they didn't know either.
He remembered the talk with the Heavenly Sovereign before the meeting.
It was just a brief meeting so that they wouldn't be tapped.
"I believe we should side with Theo instead of the Griffith Family."
"Is he that good in your eyes?" The president asked, looking at the Heavenly Sovereign with a grim expression. This decision was heavy, so he didn't dare to make the judgment easily.
"What I'm scared of right now is not Theo or the Griffith Family right now, but something else. So, it's entirely up to you. I have given you my answer, and it's your time to make the decision." The Heavenly Sovereign shrugged.
The president sighed. Recalling this conversation truly gave him a headache. He wished he could see the future, but it was impossible to know what the future had for him. Whether this was a correct decision or not, the future will tell.
…
Thersland.
Zhao Jia had prepared to make her move as soon as the order came. She was standing not far away from the barrier, so it would be easy to reach that area before they were scattered.
Not long after, Zhao Jia finally got the highest command.
"Zhao Jia. It's an order. Capture Nagasawa Rea and Akbaraly Ibraev."
"Understood." Zhao Jia nodded as her expression became extremely cold, executing her mission. Without hesitation, she went to the barrier and destroyed it, alarming both sides.
"Shit. Zhao Jia." Akbar gritted his teeth, realizing that they had lost in this battle. With Zhao Jia helping the Griffith Family, they would be captured and the situation would be turned around.
"Restraining Order." Zhao Jia declared while pointing her hand to Akbar.
"!!!" Akbar tried to move, but her ability was faster. Trigrams appeared beneath his feet as they started shining. "What is this? I can't move?"
He felt there was an immeasurable pressure that stopped his movement. The trigrams suddenly summoned a dome that isolated him from the rest as if completely restraining him inside.
Akbar tried to use his power, but he wasn't Felix or Ruth, who had extraordinary strength that could break free from this scenario.
Before he could think of anything, a Yin and Yang symbol appeared on his neck, locking his neck in the middle with both hands locked in each Yin and Yang's eyes.
"Kh." Akbar gritted his teeth, remembering what Theo told him before visiting Thersland.
"Akbar, Rea. I'm sending you there to weaken the Griffith Family further. Meanwhile, I'll be visiting Japan to talk with the Heavenly Sovereign himself. Don't worry… I can assure you one thing. The Heavenly Sovereign is an ally, so I won't be in danger.
"So, you have to trust me that everything is going to be alright." Theo smiled at that time as if he had prepared everything, and they just had to play their parts so that the plans worked.
But this was the reality. He was captured without the means to commit suicide. The only thing he could do was shout to Rea. "Run away!"
Rea widened her eyes in shock and turned to her brother. "We need to escape."
Sojuro was stunned because he didn't expect this kind of development. He was here just to help Rea, but it seemed the luck didn't go his way.
Rea immediately retracted the barrier and turned around to escape. Unfortunately, she was too late.
"Restraining Order!" Zhao Jia was far faster than her and the rest of the reinforcements. Even the people that Sojuro brought to help him could only try to protect them but stopped in the middle of their path, restrained like Akbar.

"Do you think you will get away from this?" Rea gritted her teeth. "Even if you can capture us, you won't be able to defeat Theo."
Zhao Jia maintained her cold expression and stated, "I don't care what you say. I only do as ordered."
Seeing that all people had been restrained, the people from the Griffith Family immediately went to her to thank her assistance.
After seeing the Mind Elder or the Skyward Mercenary Leader, the Griffith Family experts knew the power of someone at this caliber. Still, it was shocking to see that power was utilized in front of their eyes.
"As expected, no matter how much I see it, the power of a Transcendent Mythical Rank Expert far surpasses normal Mythical Rank Experts like us." One of them said and politely lowered his head to thank her. "Thank you for your assistance."
Zhao Jia looked around and sighed in disappointment. "Even with all these people, you couldn't even capture them? Maybe I should have reconsidered the Griffith Family's power… Without me, you couldn't capture them even after using all of your people. Pathetic."
"You—" One of them wanted to berate him. She had helped them, but it didn't mean she could say anything.
However, he was stopped since they didn't want to make her their enemies. "I apologize for our disappointing result. Our Griffith Family will give you proper compensation."
"Proper Compensation eh? I have something I want." Zhao Jia smirked as huge trigrams suddenly appeared on top of their heads, illuminating the whole building.
"This is…" The people from the Griffith Family were stunned before they understood the real intent behind this power. "Run! She is on their side!"
Unfortunately, they realized it too late. The reason why she had been talking this whole time was to prepare this trigram. Now that it had been activated, no one would be able to escape.
"Martial Court, judgment… Guilty. I hereby sentence you to death." Zhao Jia waved her hand down.
In an instant, the trigrams in the sky released a yellow light both upward and downward, creating a huge light pillar that reached the dark sky as if Heaven had passed on the judgment.
"Nooo—!"
The people from the Griffith Family were engulfed since the trigrams covered the entire building area.
When the light was gone, only a huge crater remained. Not a single rubble was spotted.
Yes, that one light actually erased everything in that radius. Only Zhao Jia, as well as the people protected by her golden barrier, were still alive and gradually fell down to the ground.
While falling down, she remembered the instructions of the president.
"Zhao Jia. I want you to go to Thersland right now to prepare for our next move. You said to me that the meeting three days later is something we should worry about. For you, it's a meeting where we shall decide our move.
"But for me, it's slightly different. To me, the decision has been made in this meeting. That's why Feng Hao leaves the country. So, what we have to worry about in that meeting is none other than the result of our choices."
"…" Zhao Jia didn't completely understand him, but an order was an order. She politely bowed her head. "I will go then."
When Zhao Jia was about to leave, the president stopped him. "Ah, wait a minute. I also have one more thing you need to remember."
"What is that?"
Zhao Jia closed her eyes as she could remember those words perfectly.
"If I order you to capture them, it means you should capture them and kill the rest of the people. If I order you to kill them, it means you should kill the targets without hesitation!"
'He ordered me to capture Nagasawa Rea and Akbaraly Ibraev, so it means I should capture them and kill the people from the Griffith Family. So, this is the decision, huh…" Zhao Jia gently pushed her glasses as the mission was completed.
