Just like the two expected, Alea missed a single big catch. With the Eilric Family tailing them or just the potential alone was enough to make the assassins think that they only had one chance to act if they didn't want to miss this opportunity.
They needed to strike Theo when the battle just ended because that was the only time they could see the military and the Eilric Family gathered in one place without doing anything.
And Theo also knew that timing, thus allowing him to draw all of them out by chasing the bait they had.
Inside the forest, he had started fighting the bait, which was none other than his former teammate, Sihan Raskaka.
Theo waved his spear from the side, using his Telekinesis, Cannon Blast, and External Flow.
Sihan stomped the ground and raised his shield, stopping this attack head-on. However, he soon got launched away because of the power difference between them.
