God of Tricksters

Chapter 1973 Gathering Information



As planned, Theo began to come to each venue, discussing their abilities. He even gave some personal advice. Though, he also had to tell them that they had to choose whether they would trust his judgment or not.

After all, he might harm them without them realizing it. So, they had to be careful.

Even though he gave all those pieces of advice, it didn’t change the fact that his lesson was extremely valuable. There were a lot of people who got a small breakthrough in their abilities.

They could come up with some new ways of utilizing their own ability. Even if they didn’t reach the next stage, they still got something big from this lesson.

They became proof that Theo fulfilled his side of the agreement. So, they couldn’t say anything otherwise.

“Grandfather…” Grace looked at the Great Mage with a serious expression. She raised her hands and released her Magic Power. The Magic Power actually gathered in one single point and formed a small ball. This blue colored Magic Power had something different from the usual Magic Power.

Obviously, it didn’t escape the Great Mage’s eyes.

“Hmm, this is…” The Great Mage squinted his eyes. “Hoo… It seems that you have found something good.”

“Yes.” Grace smirked. The Magic Power on her hands was actually spinning at high speed. It felt like there were numerous vortexes inside, creating a violent current. But because of Grace’s control, she managed to harmonize and contain the Magic Power from going berserk.

If she just threw this lump of Magic Power, she could create a significant explosion. And this wasn’t even a technique. It was only a way to control Magic Power that Grace found after getting Theo’s lesson.𝚘𝒱𝓛xt.𝔠𝔬𝗆

“I have never thought that there would be someone who can understand me and tell me about control that somehow suits me.” Grace shook her head helplessly.

“That’s Theodore Griffith. He is extremely talented in learning. He uses his talent to learn and understand you. Then, he learns how to teach others in the best way possible with that information. That’s why there are a lot of people who have managed to make a small breakthrough.

“In fact, I have underestimated Theodore Griffith’s talent. I don’t think it’s possible for a three-day training camp to be able to achieve anything. But with the current pace, it won’t be weird if one of them manages to attain this unique power.” The Great Mage sighed, feeling defeated.

It was truly amazing. But as much as he wanted to praise Theo, he couldn’t help but notice what Theo was trying to do.

It was already the second day of the training camp, so he obviously saw Rea and a few members from Theo’s group come into the room, inviting one person at a time.

“Are you worried about it, Grandfather?” Grace asked. She seemed to have noticed the same thing, but unlike her grandfather, she didn’t have enough knowledge and experience about it, so she didn’t know what Theo was planning to do.

“I do… I don’t know what he’s planning, but I’m sure that he’s planning to do something… We might have to prepare for it.” The Great Mage nodded.

“In that case, let me go around the hotel to eavesdrop on people’s conversation. We might be able to find something useful.” Grace whispered with a serious expression.

The Great Mage thought for a moment. Although he wanted to do it personally because he was afraid that Theo’s people would try to capture her because she was sniffing around, it seemed that he could only let her granddaughter do it.

His identity was sensitive after all.

After considering the pros and cons, the Great Mage whispered to Grace, warning her. “Try to listen to people’s conversations. However, don’t make it too obvious. Theodore Griffith is extremely cunning, so you shouldn’t follow any of his people since it might be a trap no matter how beneficial it is to the investigation.”

Grace nodded with a serious expression. After receiving the instruction, she immediately left the room, roaming around.

Even though it was useful to share their abilities, they were not forced to learn the whole time they were there. They were free to do whatever they wanted. They could talk with others and form some relationships with other influences in the hallway. They could practice their new abilities together outside. They only needed to come back when Theo visited their rooms to give them a thorough lesson.

Although they could choose not to attend it, they didn’t dare to miss a single lesson from Theo due to how useful it was.

Grace couldn’t help but start to hear something that bothered her when she started going around. She acted as if she was fixated on her notebook, but she was actually listening to people’s conversations.

“Hey, have you realized that the people from Theo’s group are calling some people over one by one?”

“Yes. What do you think they are doing? It seems to be important since every single person who has been called has achieved a small breakthrough in their abilities.”

“I know right.”

“I have been investigating those people to be honest. I have a hard time figuring it out, but it seems that Theodore Griffith is giving them an extra lesson.”

“So, who are ‘them’ in your mouth?”

“I’m not that sure. But from what I have seen from the few people that have been called, they are from the influences who haven’t joined the government’s side since their rise.”

“…”

When that statement was released, they became silent and looked at each other as if thinking something.

There were two people whose influence was on good terms with Theo, while the other two were not so much. One of them was neutral, while the other had joined the government to suppress Theo, using their rise to get something more from Theo’s group.

Grace was completely dumbfounded by their conversation. However, it seemed that their conversation just proved itself when Ergene suddenly approached them.

“Mr. Sean, correct? Do you have some time? There is something we’d like to discuss with you.”

“Oh…” One of the two people whose influence was on good terms with Theo was startled, never expecting to get chosen. He immediately straightened his back. “I have time. Yes, Sure.”

No one realized that the situation would become worse than anyone predicted.
