God of Tricksters

Chapter 204 - Ready To Go



After the meeting, the group began their personal training with Radvils to fix their own flaws.

Theo also began to observe the others, trying to find a way to surpass them.

He planned to surpass other countries' students, so he needed to find a way for his teammates as soon as possible because their opponents would be very strong and didn't give him too much time like this.

Radvils often asked him to play a mind game to train his problem-solving ability.

On the other hand, Theo asked Radvils about his reward, only to find that the latter had already known that he wanted sword skills instead of spear skills. However, Theo was happy with the development because his plan worked on Radvils.

With the addition of the skills from the school and Nart Eilric, Theo decided to improve two skills to C Rank.

His clone was always with him, so it didn't take him too long to think whether he wanted to improve it or not. At the same time, he needed to choose between his Magic Bullet and Telekinesis.

After training his Telekinesis, he realized that the skill had more potential than Magic Bullet, especially in fighting humans, so he upgraded Telekinesis to C Rank.

With the addition of two C Rank Skills, he now had four C Rank Skills and six D Rank Skills. He believed there wasn't anyone in his team who could replicate such a feat. And the ability to upgrade skills was indeed overpowered for Theo because the latter didn't need to search for a new skill and just upgraded the ones he was already compatible with.

Also, his teammates' progress was pretty good.

To train her flexibility, Alea began to train her physical body, including her reaction speed. It was intense, but Alea's capability was much stronger than the training, so she often had her own training menu after the training from Radvils.

There was always one thing in her mind during the entire time. It was Theo. The words she said to Theo kept appearing in her mind, embarrassing and motivating her at the same time. It was a weird feeling, but she indeed moved toward her goal.

Ellen underwent a similar training, but due to her lack of reaction speed, she often got covered by bruises on her skin. It seemed Radvils trained her with actual items that would hurt her if it was hit since it must have quite high speed.

Even so, Ellen didn't give up and kept pushing forward, not caring about the pain she needed to endure. Luckily, Radvils kept a close watch over her nutrition and such to make sure she was in perfect shape.

Radvils was a bit skeptical about her two personalities, but she believed that was Ellen's greatest weapon, so he decided to fight against her to improve her power.

Laust and Phyrill were the same types, but their training was vastly different. Phyrill focused on assassinating his opponent in a Virtual World and each kill would give him a different environment, forcing him to improvise his own way.

On the contrary, Laust mostly meditated to improve his Awareness and Control.

Last but not least, Sihan often fought Radvils to increase his repertoire and Theo could see Radvils' techniques and tactics, using them to refine his own experience.

Three weeks later.

Theo wore a blue shirt and long black pants, bringing a backpack on his right shoulder. His other shoulder carried two spears for him and his clone.

He stood in front of his house's door and turned around, seeing the house for one more time.

This trip would take a few weeks, so he needed to ensure that his house had been paid for. After that, he took a bus ride to the airport, where he and the others agreed to meet.

As soon as he arrived at the airport, he saw seven people standing in front of the airport, waiting for him.

Alea wore a one-piece white dress coupled with black silk pants. Her sword was hanging on her waist, making one confused whether she wanted to have a vacation or chop someone.

On her right, Ellen stood while waving his hand. Instead of the usual school uniform, she wore a pink t-shirt that matched her hair color and blue jeans. She brought a suitcase with her wand hanging on the side. "Theo, you've finally come."

Laust crossed his arms and looked away, acting cold to Theo. He wore a white sweater and blue jeans, casual but matched his purple hair. Sihan, on the other hand, had a similar outfit with a different choice of color while carrying a giant shield as well another bag for his armor.

Phyrill appeared to fit his own character. With that petite body, he wore a t-shirt with a stripes pattern and short blue jeans with two leather belts hanging on his shoulders.

Radvils himself didn't look any different from his usual appearance. He only wore a black shirt and blue jeans. However, the one that shocked Theo the most was a middle-aged man wearing a lab coat. It was his teacher, Rai.

"He is part of our medical team. Although he has retired from the army, his skill is pretty good." Radvils pointed his finger at him, introducing Rai.

"I am here just to procrastinate. There's no need to teach students if I'm with you and the longer you stay in the competition, the longer I can slack off. So… Keep winning." Rai nodded with his eyes half-open.

"…" Theo shook his head helplessly, knowing that this teacher never held back. Such a unique teacher, he thought.

"Anyway, let's wait in the lounge." Radvils shrugged and said nonchalantly.

"Yes. I'm sorry for arriving last."

"You arrived on time." Radvils corrected him and turned around before hearing some sighs around him.

"Haiz, it's time for economy class, I guess. No matter what you're doing, you will still need to face economy class during the flight. It's hard for athletes…" Phyrill complained in disappointment while walking as if he had resigned on his fate. "If we didn't go together, I would have booked a better seat."

However, Radvils snorted and showed the tickets on his screen. "Amateur. That's because their coaches are plebians."

Phyrill took a glance and saw a different ticket than what he expected. "Ho, a business class?"

"Yes. All of you are the strongest members no one has ever seen before, so your treatment should be special. If you can get to the main stage, obviously, we will fly home with first class."

"That's great." Phyrill smirked. "As expected from you, instructor, you're indeed different."
