God of Tricksters-Novel

Chapter 876 - Identity

After a while, Theo and Agata finally sat down on the corner, leaning to each other while holding hands.

Ava was on Theo's lap as she looked at Theo and Agata.

"I guess you have chosen…"

"Chosen is not the correct word, Ava." Theo shook his head.

"I'm just a rabbit; I don't understand. All I know is that you've chosen her as your partner. That's all." Ava tilted her head in confusion before turning to Agata. "Anyway, I don't think much about your relationship, but I need to mention one thing. I don't care which shoulder you pick to lean on, just make sure one of them is mine." Ava pouted.

Agata was startled by her words but ended up chuckling. "Don't worry, Ava. I'm not going to take Theo away from you."

"You better not." Ava nodded, satisfied.

Agata couldn't contain her smile when she saw the adorable Ava. Obviously, she didn't see Ava as a love rival, and she respected Ava as the first person among them to know Theo.

Since she already got the answer, Ava closed her eyes and stopped bothering them.

Then, Theo explained, "It's not that I don't want to bring you with me, what I'm planning to do—!"

Before he finished his words, Agata said, "I understand. You don't need to worry about me. I know that you're doing this because you have to… My presence there might delay your plan even further."

"Wait for me… 5 years… No, I promise I will go back to Italy after 3 years. At that time, I should be strong enough to announce our relationship and let the world know that you're my woman."

"Thank you. I believe in you." Agata smiled, knowing full well that her presence there might result in Theo's plan getting extended from 3 years to 10 years. Instead of getting clingy and refusing to let go, she chose to believe and wait for him.

"Although the contract with the Star Group or the Starry Group is absolute, I'm sure they won't stop me from meeting you. So, you don't need to mind." Theo smiled, assuring her.

"Don't worry. I have my hands full too. While you're there, I'm not going to stop here. It's true that I can't compete with your leveling speed or progress, but what I have learned from you and Sir Leonardo is enough for me to minimize our gap.

"In the meantime, I'll learn how to manage an influence from my dad, so when the time comes, I can help you handle this influence. Also, I will change my fighting style too, since I've decided to accept both War and Lust Power.

"Even if I'm not as strong as you, you might not be able to win against me." Agata chuckled.

"Is that so? I'm looking forward to it." Theo smiled, feeling blessed to have such a woman.

"Still, I do have a few questions."

"Sure, ask away."

"What's your identity there? Although it's easy to make a fake identity, your performance will surely be noticed by many people. I'm afraid they will know that your identity is fake. Sooner or later, they will find your real identity. On the other hand, I can enjoy my life here because I simply need to revert back to my original identity since everyone thinks I'm hiding from you, and now that you're gone, I appear again."

"Oh, you don't need to worry about that." Theo chuckled and presented her his ID Card.

Instead of Theodore Griffith, it was 'Joker.' The identity he created in Thersland.

"Unlike an ID Card, the Temple Card doesn't have a record of where it was issued. They only know that the Temple is the one giving this identity. And with Maya's help, this identity should have some depths.

"At the very least, this is better than a fake identity that makes people think you appear out of thin air. People can still see my records and believe that I reach here without cheating.

"I created this ID Card due to my naivety and never thought I would need it now. I guess I'm lucky."

"How about your weapon? People know your spear!"

"Did you forget what I got from the dwarves?" Theo smiled and turned the ring into a blue sword. "I can use this. It's true that my mastery is shallow, but I focus more on Control and Awareness."

"That's true, but your fighting style is known by many."

"Not necessarily by many. After all, they only know about my Control. Only a few know about my Death Avatar. As for the clone, I have Metamorphosis, so they won't know it's my clone.

"The same applies to my other skills. I can use them a bit differently from normal, so they won't doubt my identity." Theo had already prepared an answer for this.

Even Agata had no complaints about his arrangement. "I see. To think you have another identity… I guess that's the reason why you've been splitting your achievements. This 'Joker' is already close to Gold Privilege in the Temple, so you're already quite important to them."

"Yes. I can make my Joker look like a solo hunter who has been roaming alone this whole time. And because of Maya's kindness, I have come to work for her. Of course, it also means I can't get the full contract.

"I will try to negotiate to the best of my ability since I doubt they will treat me badly even if I hide my real identity. Only a few penalties and deductions to the terms, I guess." Theo shrugged.

"That's true. Though, your value has already risen so much. Even with penalties and deductions, the least you can get is the first contract that Sir Bernard offered."

"Yeah. Well, we can see how it goes later. I'll contact you when I get there."

"Sure." Agata nodded with a smile. "Anyway, if you need me to do anything, just call me. I'll be ready to help."

"Yeah, thank you."

"Though, I'm still wondering whether you will go to Thersland or not. After all, you still have a grudge with the Lange Family, right?"

Theo closed his eyes for a moment. "I'm sure Laust will be there as well when I go back to Thersland. I'll let him kill his own father since it's his wish."

"You don't hate him anymore?"

"I don't like him, but I don't consider him as an enemy anymore." Theo shook his head.

"Mhm…" Agata only smiled as she thought Theo had matured a bit.
