God of Tricksters

Chapter 122 - Important Discussion

When she headed to Theo's room, she saw Laust leaving the room with a serious but relieved expression as if he just finished a certain matter.

She slightly raised her eyebrows when their eyes intertwined, "What are you doing here?"

Laust shook his head and passed her without any words, confusing Alea.

When she was about to grab him, she remembered that Theo and Laust couldn't see eye to eye, so she thought there must be a problem. Instead of jumping to a conclusion and making the situation even more complicated, she decided to go to the room first to understand what was going on.

She knocked on the door two times before opening the door, finding all the people didn't say anything to each other. The atmosphere was heavy to the point Alea wondered what just happened.

"Ehm? Why do you all like this?"

Ellen shook her head and said, "It's fine. We just resolved a serious problem. Anyway, we don't need to handle it anymore."

"Is that related to Laust Lange?" She pointed at the door with her thumb while tilting her head.

"More or less. Anyway, you don't need to care about it anymore." Ellen walked to her and grabbed her hand, pulling her to the seat. "Let's have a chat."

"Ehm, before that…" She turned to Sihan and Phyrill. "Nice to meet you. I am looking forward to our cooperation."

Sihan nodded while Phyrill made a smug smile. "Hehe, doesn't this mean you are below me, Alea? How about you bow down to me and call me a senior? I am the senior in this group."

Alea squinted her eyes, looked away, and snorted. "Hmph. Instead of feeling proud, how about you get a few more inches to your height? No one will be able to look you in the eyes at this point, you know."

"As expected, your mouth is still as nasty as always."

"I don't need to do something good to someone who is trying to make trouble." Alea shrugged.

When Phyrill was about to say another thing, Alea turned around and waved her hand at Theo. "It's been a while."

Theo only nodded his head and asked, "What are we going to do now? If I am not wrong, we still have two weeks left, right?"

"Indeed. We should—" Ellen suddenly stopped before looking at the screen on the table, finding a small icon glowing. She instinctively pressed it and a new screen popped out.

It was a call with the instructor, Radvils.

He looked at them with a serious expression and said, "Congratulations on getting your last member. This way, you have successfully cleared the second stage of my training. The last stage will start in another two weeks, so it's up to you what to do.

"I will explain everything you need to know first. There are three main points in this discussion." Radvils paused for a moment after noticing Laust was missing. However, he didn't mention it to them and continued as if nothing happened.

"First, I will be direct. The third stage will be training, where you can level up. In other words, it's time to pull ahead, but that's your choice. I won't say anything regarding your decision."

Alea suddenly raised her hand. "Does this mean we're going to fight a huge number of monsters during the last three months before the tournament?"

"Yes." Radvils's face then turned small as he presented a little information to them. "This is the information about the previous tournament. All the third years are at Hero Level, meaning their level are above 250.

"There are a few second-year students too, but they are rare, let alone the first year. We don't know any participants from other countries yet, so I can't say anything about them. For now, I want all of you to focus on leveling up, especially the third year. The others are required to become at least a Champion Rank within three months.

"This is becoming a race for the first year, but whether you can do it or not, it's not my problem. The government or I won't give you anything to help you. After all, if other students can do it, they will be the ones getting the ticket to represent this country in the Grand Gaia."

Theo asked, "Does this mean we can become the winner as long as we fulfill the requirement faster?"

"Ehm, no." Radvils shook his head. "It's just the basic requirement to go to fight other countries. I will give you a certain mission when the time arrives, so don't ask me anything about it for the time being."

Theo looked down with his hand supporting his chin. "I see. This means we will have an advantage as long as we get more levels as quickly as possible."

"I can't deny it, but I warn you to not make a conclusion yet."

Theo nodded since there were two other topics he wanted to talk about.

Seeing Theo fall silent, Radvils continued, "Secondly, all your records have been deleted. The only data you can get is in the hard drive inside the table. You may copy it and delete it yourself for study."

"Data?" Phyrill narrowed his eyes and realized what was going on. "So, the fight is already on."

Radvils didn't have any change of expression. He simply stated the truth. "Whatever the case, I am not planning to have other countries find any data about all the participants of my training even if the other countries don't see us in their eyes. It's time for all you guys to step forward and devour them."

Phyrill smirked, feeling excited. "That's nice, isn't it? Fine by me."

"Fine by you? I don't care what you think, you little sh*t. You are still nothing but a baby bird to me who can't even fight against other countries. Don't talk big or I will put you in your place." Radvils raised his eyebrows and his voice, making Phyrill shudder.

Even the other members fell silent as Theo asked coldly. "What is the third?"

Radvils paused for a moment and looked them in the eyes. "The third is…"
