God of Tricksters

"What do you think?"

Theo's expression became extremely cold as he said, "What do you know?"

"Do you think I will give the information to you easily?" Agata shook her head. "After a long investigation, we have realized that your mother comes from the War God Family. Well, you can say Ignazio is also your cousin."

Theo shook his head. "Do you think this kind of information can force me to join you? Besides, my father and my mother have died from an incident a long time ago."

"That is what you think. I can assure you that they are still alive."

Theo raised his eyebrows and rose from the chair. "What did you say?"

He looked surprised, but this action couldn't escape her eyes. "I am sorry, but I had used my skill when I was waiting for you. The skill allowed me to make a certain illusion where you would see the figures you want to see the most.

"Seeing you have no reaction when your parents are next to me means you don't have a longing attachment, so you must have known about their conditions." She shook her head while sighing. "There's no need to fool me with your expression."

"What? You used your skills?" Theo slammed the table and looked to the side, "Is that the reason I'm seeing my brother next to you?"

"Ah, sorry, I lied about my skill. This is why I know you are lying." She smirked.

"And of course… I just want to play along with your little trick." Theo shrugged and sat down as if nothing happened.

The two twitched their eyebrows as they both couldn't see which one was a lie, which one wasn't from each other.

'She is dangerous indeed.' Theo muttered inwardly while maintaining his calm face.

Agata, on the contrary, chuckled and said, "See? This is why I have a backup plan."

She smiled and extended her hand, typing a few things on her Skylink to project a screen on top of the table. The screen showed two pictures.

The first one was a family picture with a total of thirty people. She then pointed at one person.

The woman had black braided hair and black eyes. She seemed to be around twenty years old in this picture, but her appearance indeed struck Theo's heart deeply.

"I'm sure that you can recognize this woman." She smiled.

"…" Theo's expression became serious. "It's easy to edit this type of picture."

"Then why don't you check War God Family on Skynet. They usually have an annual family photo that is posted on their website. You can check the website, including the date it's taken. Try to check those coming from twenty years ago since she is still the person of the War God Family. I don't need to prove it to you since the proof is already there."

Theo quickly searched for it and found several photos of his own mother.

"After training with Magic Power, a Mythical Rank Expert can live for 150 years on average. Your mother was around 30 years old when those pictures were taken. Of course, she was only a Hero Rank Expert back then, just a little bit away from Supreme Rank.

"It's been twenty years since your father eloped with your mother. Well, I don't think I can explain more than this unless you agree to my terms."

Theo looked down. Even though he didn't want to admit it, her pictures and the image in his memory really matched.

That was why he couldn't really deny this. However, one thing piqued his interest. "Elope…"

"I am sorry, but I can't say anything. Besides, this may also be the reason your head can give all those strategies. Blood can never lie. You have the Magic Talent from your father and the War Talent from your mother. If you wish to know about them, I hope you can agree to my term."

"I think you misunderstand something…" Theo's tone was cold as he released a bit of his killing intent. "I hate parents who can throw away their son so easily. With their power and influence, I doubt something big can happen to them.

"Your tone told me that my father is equal to her if not stronger, so with the status in their respective family, I don't think elopement is a big problem." Theo closed his eyes and paused for a moment. "That's why… I don't need to know. Don't you think this information will just keep me away from Italy or the War God Family?"

Agata's expression gradually turned serious as she never expected this answer from Theo.

"Even so, I think it's fair for you to know more about them." She shook her head. Instead of cowering, she decided to confront him head-on by telling him her condition. "I only wish to participate in a single expedition together. Of course, a big expedition with at least twenty people. I don't care if you are a sidekick or not, I want to see you in that situation and fight alongside you.

"This is my only condition. If you agree, I can tell you about your origin." She smiled. "This should be an easy task for you, right?"

"…" Theo fell silent for a moment, making the atmosphere awkward.

Even so, Agata wasn't disturbed by it and casually took another sip of her juice.

As she said, Theo indeed wanted to know more about his family even if he didn't come to the Griffith Family. After all, the one thing that repulsed him so much from this Griffith Family was the fact that all Griffith Family members needed to stay outside the family without any knowledge about them until they were 18 years old.

This was Theo's conclusion after understanding his and Nella's situation. If he returned to the family regarding the situation, he might need to do it as well.

"By the way, this is just me interested in you. I have brought you something as the sincerity of my country. And…" Her hair and her eyes turned red as her face was distorted a bit, making her not look like herself. "I have learned Mimicry to change my appearance. With this appearance, I won't be the focus."

"…" Theo let out a long sigh. "Alright. I agree, but I have several conditions too."

A smile appeared on Agata's face as her appearance returned to normal. She said with confidence.. "Alright, let's hear it."
