However, Maxine could not figure it out.
"How would I know?"
Thea shook her head.
She, too, was unsure of Thomas’ intentions.
All she knew was that everything was not to harm but to help James.novelbin
"Is that so? Then, have you ever felt that Thomas is the one behind everything?"
"What do you mean?"
Thea looked at Maxine.
Maxine thought for a while and said, "Let's start from when James killed the previous Emperor.Once hedied, the Cadens and the Johnstons’ conflict began, but they didn’t completely fall out with eachother.Shortly after, the Johnstons and Sullivans’ paintings were suddenly stolen, causing them to takeaction against the Cadens.Then, the Lees surfaced claiming that their painting was also stolen, pointingtheir fingers at the Cadens too."
"What does this have to do with Sir Caden?" Thea asked indifferently.
"Haven't you thought about the possibility the three families didn’t lie, and their paintings were reallystolen, and the culprit could be Thomas? His purpose is to arouse conflict between the Ancient Fourand make them fight against each other."
Thea glanced coldly at Maxine and said, "Why would he do that? Stop thinking you’re so smart,Maxine.These are just your conjectures, and you shouldn't spout nonsense without any evidence."
"Indeed, these are just my conjectures.As for why, if the person behind Mr.Gabriel is Thomas, won’t itmake so much sense that Mr.Gabriel stood up and proposed the Ancient Four resolve their conflictsduring the Mount Thunder Conference?"
Maxine continued to analyze the situation.
"Thomas was the person behind Mr.Gabriel, and his purpose was to make the Ancient Four turnagainst each other.That way, he could propose the Mount Thunder Conference.If a conflict didn’t existbetween them, no one would be interested in the conference even if it was suggested.However, if theAncient Four were fighting against each other, the conference would be lively as countless martialartists around the globe would actively participate to see what the Ancient Four would do at theconference."
Hearing this, Thea frowned.иσν???вσσк.￠σмMaxine’s analysis was straightforward and logical, makingher slightly convinced.
After thinking for a while, she asked, "Then, why would Sir Caden want the conference so desperately?What would he gain from it? What is he trying to accomplish?"
"Of course, the position as the Great Grandmaster.The power of being the leader of the ancient martialworld is much greater than being the King of Sol.Although the King is the country's lord, he doesn’thave authority over the ancient martial artists.However, being the Great Grandmaster will give one thepower to command all the martial artists in Sol.Wouldn’t it be easy to become the ruler of the world withcountless martial artists under one’s command?"
Thea laughed.
"That simple? The ruler of the world? You're overthinking it."
Maxine rolled her eyes at Thea and said, "You don’t understand the temptation of power.It’ll make oneinsane and possess one’s mind.Throughout the ages, countless wars have broken out, and many liveshave been lost for this position.Standing on top, looking down on the world, and being in control isincredibly tempting."
"Sir Caden isn’t someone like that."
Thea shook her head and rejected Maxine’s suspicions.
"He may not be, but there isn’t just one person behind Mr.Gabriel.There’s a whole faction behindeverything.According to my analysis, Thomas has other plans and is using the faction to hisadvantage."
"Then, what do you think Sir Caden is trying to do?" Maxine fell into thought.
What exactly did Thomas want to do? She could not figure it out yet.
Judging from the current happenings, it seemed that Thomas was indeed trying to help Mr.Gabriel orwas the person above him.
"Could it be that the people behind Mr.Gabriel have something Thomas wants? So, he’s helping themin exchange for it? "Maxine murmured.
"Stop acting smart and making random guesses, Maxine.Things might be completely different fromwhat you think," Thea said disdainfully.
Maxine gently shook her head and said, "No, I have to be right.But, what’s the reason?"
From her understanding of Thomas, he was obsessed with martial arts.
"Could it be the ninth rank?"
The ninth rank was the most significant height of martial arts.No one knew what being in that rank waslike nor how powerful it was.
