God of Tricksters-Novel

Chapter 1532 Relation

"To think you have this kind of ability…" Rea let out a long sigh. "It feels like we never know the depth of your strength."

"Haha, isn't it better to be mysterious? Everyone can misunderstand you." Theo chuckled. "It's easier to fight against someone who misunderstands you. And fool your ally to fool your enemy."

"That's true. But why do you reveal it now?"

"I used this ability during the trip, so I guess it's time for me to tell you guys about it. Besides, this is also the perfect time for this ability to become even more important."

"That's true." Rea nodded in agreement. "The fact that no one can access the power system anymore means they will stop growing. If you can raise everyone's skill, it'll have a good impact on one's strength."

"No. That's not all." Isaac, the genius of the group, noticed something more behind this power. "Theo… Why did you take out all those Skill Cards earlier?"

"As expected of Isaac." Theo smiled. "Yes. Upgrading skill requires Skill Cards. I sacrifice all those Skill Cards to raise the ranks. And…"

Theo opened the suitcases, showing numerous Skill Cards. "I'm planning to upgrade everyone's skills. But I can only increase it to A Rank, not S Rank. Well, I require a lot of A Rank Skill Cards, so I hope you can understand."

"A lot of A Rank Skill Cards? Now that I think about it, if you're trying to find a lot of A Rank Skill Cards, you need tens of billions…" Rea gasped.

"Yeah. Even the Star Group can't handle this much money. Even if I can utilize other people's efforts, it will bring me more trouble than necessary."

"That's true. Those people from the top ten or even the top one hundred people in the world will come to you to upgrade their Skills. They won't leave you alone." ɴovel(F)ɪre

"There you have it. Since the world has collapsed, the Skill Cards are useless."

"Ah! We can gather the Skill Cards far easier." Rea nodded in understanding. She finally knew Theo's train of thought.

Theo nodded. "So, Felix. I want you to choose the Skill that you want to upgrade. As for everyone, I need to see your ability first since the higher the skill rank, the higher the consumption. I can't expect Millie to use an A Rank Skill, right?"

They agreed. If Millie was forced to use an A Rank Skill, she might have used up all her Magic Power before she could even use it. So, it would be just a useless skill.

"That's it. Anyway, let's move on. Do you have any questions you want to ask me, Felix, Walker?"

"No. I'm still overwhelmed by this skill upgrade to be honest. If I want to ask you something, it's related to the Skill Rank. So, I guess I'll wait for this one." Walker shook his head. Felix also didn't have any questions, so Theo could continue.

"Then, Coline. How's the food? The recipe is different?"

"Yeah. The diet will have to be adjusted, but for now, I'm experimenting with it. We'll also have a hard time getting other spices, so we have to create a trade route. For now, we're good by ransacking the stores and houses."

"Fair enough. I'll think about it during our expansion. Any questions?"

"Nope."

"Then, we'll move to Aisha. How is everyone's body in your eyes?"

"Everyone seems to be healthier due to the increase of Magic Power. I believe that the next generation will be healthier, and their strength will dramatically improve. For now, there's not much change. I'll keep focusing on searching if we start evolving or not."

"Got it. Do you have any questions?"

"It's impossible to find the information about the orphanage, so I don't have any questions."

"Sorry that I can't help you with this one."

"It's fine." Aisha waved her hand in understanding.

"So, who's left? Chris? What is your job here?"

"I'm in charge of education. You're talking about the Five Aspects being the most important things for the future, right? Since I have mastered Control and Awareness, I'm writing everything down. I'm also recording other Five Aspects from others.

"Since we can't have any skills in the future, the next generation has to create their own skill like the monsters. But humans love to generalize things, like me. So, we have to create a set of skills that can be generalized so that normal humans can use them. This is the current project."

"That's pretty good. Make sure you work together with the others, especially Rea and Isaac."

"Yeah, that's what I've been doing this whole time." Chris nodded.

"Alright then. Do you have any questions for me before I move on to the next topic?"

"I don't really have any questions. In fact, I'm curious about what you did in the union."

"Haha, you can find it out later." Theo chuckled. "Alright. I'm going to discuss the next topic. I have created an agreement with a World Class Monster in our northwest. This is a friendly relationship.

"I forbid anyone to kill the monsters in his territory. In exchange, we'll get special treatment for them, especially a safe path. They'll escort us through their territory and if monsters from outside territory attack you, they'll fight to protect you."

And just like this, Theo dropped another bomb.

"World Class Monster?"

"Agreement?"

"Friendly relationship?"

"Protecting us?"

This was the first time they ever thought about cooperating with the monsters.

However, Theo also said, "The monsters have been living in this kind of environment for a long time. Talking to them will allow us to get a greater understanding of how this world works. So, this relationship is the best way to improve ourselves.

"Also, if you don't know about the World Class Monster… Basically, the monster I'm talking about is the World Class Monster that is supposed to be located on the other side of the US. He's a Frost Giant, and you should call him Frost Saint.

"And with this relationship, I have suggested that we're going to have some exchange knowledge with them, allowing us to improve in a unique way." Theo paused for a moment, then smiled. "Yes, I'm talking about the union between monsters and humans."
