God of Tricksters

"Alright. You're done. Thank you." Greg shut the room down, telling Theo that his five hours were already up.

Theo came to a stop while panting. This was the first time he moved continuously under the onslaught of many objects for five hours.

"It's good practice." Theo let out a long breath.

"What good? You're basically an abnormal guy." Maya stormed inside the room, complaining.

"Abnormal?" Theo tilted his head back, taken aback by her words. "That's the first time someone called me that."

"Obviously. You're talented indeed, but that's only in here. If you fight me in the business world, I'm not going to lose." Maya looked away before throwing the towel.

Theo caught it and wiped his sweat while saying, "Anyway, thank you. This room indeed gave me insight."

"That insight came from you. The room was the catalyst." She shrugged. "If you didn't have any talent, it would be hard to comprehend anything inside the room."

"Who knows…" Theo shook his head, thinking if they worked hard enough, they should be able to do it.

"Anyway, there's something I need to confirm first. Since when did you reach the Prediction Level? I mean, Prediction Eyes." She asked.

"Earlier. And is there a reason for me to answer this question in detail?"

"Not really. You are free to refuse to say anything. Though, it will be appreciated if you can give a bit of information."

Theo thought for a moment. Because he was going to train here for a month, he thought this much should be fine. "I have been focusing on a different direction this whole time, and earlier, I just went back to the original course."

"Hmm…" Maya nodded with a serious expression and asked, "Alright then. How about your condition? Do you feel any nausea?"

"Not really. It's completely fine." Theo shook his head with an innocent face.

"No weird feeling?"

"Other than I'm tired, I don't think so."

"Okay. You're good then. Let's come out." Maya stepped outside together with Theo, meeting with Stella and Agata.

"You're good." Stella smiled while clapping her hands.

"Thank you, Madam." Theo nodded politely before turning to Greg. "Thank you for helping me."

"Just doing my job. I should be the one thanking you for this kind of data. You're one of a kind, so we might be able to remodel it a bit to set the maximum limit… With all the data on the lower end, we will be able to create the fluctuation of Magic Power from…"

"Ehm, English?" Theo tilted his head in confusion.

"Improvement in minimum and maximum limit for Supreme Rank Expert."

"I see. It's truly a unique idea." Theo smiled. "Normally, we will improve faster during a life and death battle since if you don't improve, there's a chance of you dying. Meanwhile, this one is the degraded version. Instead of losing your life, you're simply going to experience so much pain."

"Exactly. Though, this is just the beginning." He smiled.

Agata suddenly sneaked around them and appeared to Theo's right, handing a cup of water.

Theo took it with a smile before asking a question. "By the way, I heard you have improved your virtual system… Something like using a pre-recorded video to teach someone by entering virtual reality."

"Yeah, what of it?" Maya was the one who answered this question as it was already beyond Greg's jurisdiction.

"Nothing." Theo hesitated for a moment and shook his head. There was an idea coming into his mind about using illusion to help someone practice. He also thought of another thing. 'Wait a minute… Can't I use the concept of this simulation room in my training with Death Avatar? This time, I'll truly try to escape death instead of pain. At the same time, I can experience what kind of pain I'll receive when under the influence of adrenaline along with various positions.'

On the other hand, Maya squinted her eyes, feeling curious about what he was about to say. But since the latter chose to remain silent, she dropped the idea.

"Anyway, I'm sure you've realized what should be improved, right?" Maya asked.

"Yep. Smell and Touch." Theo nodded.

"I don't need to accompany you every day then." Maya was finally free to complete the job in her company. "I'll probably be busy starting tomorrow or the day after…"

"Ahaha, so hardworking." Theo chuckled.

"In that case, I'll watch over you both for one month." Stella's expression brightened. "This way, there won't be any problem in entering the room any time you want."

It was a good idea since Stella's presence alone would push away all the unnecessary problems. However, Theo and Agata knew she wanted to monitor their growth.

'Well, even without her, they can understand my level… It's not that big of a deal, I guess.' Theo thought and said with a smile. "I will be in your care."

"Yes." She chuckled.

Agata also agreed since she could do that much for the one helping her with the simulation room.

"You should take a bath first, and we'll go back." Maya pointed to the door on their right. "That's the shower room."

"Okay." Theo immediately headed to the shower room, leaving everyone behind.

"Then, it's time for me to start working with the data." Greg also ran away, leaving the three women behind.

"You sure need to work pretty hard, eh…" Maya made a small smirk, teasing Agata. "Although your level can keep up with him, your Five Aspects can't."

"I'm perfectly aware of that." Agata sighed. "But it doesn't matter anymore."

"Heh. You might not be able to follow him anymore, you know. When that happens, there might be another woman coming to him."

"Like you?" Agata squinted her eyes.

"I don't mind the idea, but he doesn't seem to like it, so…" She shrugged her head and offered another suggestion. "Instead of lamenting over that fact, I should ask you this. Do you have any plans to come to the US with him? I'm prepared to handle the contract and can do my best to help you be together."

"…" Agata fell silent for a moment and shook her head. "Sorry, I'm not prepared to answer that question."

"Just take your time and tell me later."
