God of Tricksters

Chapter 783 – Preparation

Chapter 783 - Preparation

"We… should go down. Isn't that our objective to begin with?" Theo smiled.

"Yeah, I know that. But should we use our precious time to level up instead of searching for nothing?" Maya shook her head. "This is just wasting our time."

"Ehm, I don't think so." Theo shook his head with a serious expression. "For me, I simply want to finish my job. I'm someone with integrity, you see."

"…" Maya rolled her eyes. "I believe you just want to waste your time."

"Really? That should be the last thing in your mind. Have you ever seen me wasting my time? In fact, if I had wasted my time, I wondered how I could reach this spot in a short period…"

"Fine, fine. Mr. Smartass." She sighed. "Anyway, I'm going to become a Supreme Rank tomorrow. Let's go back to the surface, shall we?"

"I don't have any objections." Agata nodded in agreement.

"Well… Sure." Theo shrugged.

It didn't take too long for them to reach the surface and head back to the facility.

As soon as they returned, they were greeted by Ava.

"Welcome back."

"Ava. Shouldn't you be resting?" Theo raised his eyebrows.

"No. I have fully recovered. It seems the previous evolution has sped up my recovery," Ava answered with a smile.

"I see. That's great." Theo felt relieved and said, "So, you're good to go with us tomorrow?"

"Yes." Ava nodded. "I truly want to fight that person…"

She punched the air a few times, feeling fired up because she also heard the conversation that Theo had with the shadow. She learned that there was a powerful existence underneath the 30th floor, so she had been preparing herself.

"You couldn't fight that creature alone, but it would be different with me. I have reached the Supreme Rank. Our chance will be better. Isn't that the reason why you have been holding back in the past week?" Ava asked.

"Ehm, what is this all about?" Maya and Agata were perplexed by their conversation.

Theo scratched the back of his head while making a weird smile.

"Oh, you haven't told them yet? I thought since it's something that is bound to happen, you have told them." Ava blinked her eyes a few times before apologizing. "Sorry."

"It's fine. I'm planning to tell them soon anyway." Theo sighed.

"What are you talking about?" Maya and Agata asked, staring at him. They never thought Theo was hiding something about the Moniac Dungeon from them.

"My plan is to have Maya and Agata become Supreme Rank Experts first. This way, our chances will be higher." Theo explained.

"I see. No wonder." Ava nodded in understanding.

Theo sighed and took off his shoes before sitting on the floor. "Anyway, sit down first."

Maya looked at Agata and asked, "You know anything about this?"

"No." Agata shook her head.

They immediately took out their shoes and sat down, waiting for Theo's explanation.

It was then that Theo started explaining about the 30th floor.

They never expected to find such a secret on the 30th floor.

"Well, since you're telling this to us, that means the Moniac Dungeon will cease to exist, right?" She asked with a serious expression.

"Probably, yes." Theo nodded. The creature maintained the dungeon with Hel's Armor that seemed to have absorbed her Death Order, so it was clear that the moment he got Hel's Armor, the undead wouldn't appear anymore.

Still, one question remained in his head. Why does Hel's armor actually exist in this place? Theo started to believe some conspiracy theories that this place was Gods and Goddesses' resting place.

After all, they could receive a strong connection to legendary figures or myths from the past after they discovered this place.

At the same time, some items had been identified to have a strong connection with the figures on Earth.

So, he couldn't help but believe that this world was actually an alternate Earth. Sadly, no one wanted to answer his question.

Maya and Agata were not aware of this, so Maya asked, "Anyway, it seems you are hiding something from us. You mentioned there's an item containing the power of Death. So, I'm assuming that you're planning to take it for yourself."

"Naturally." Theo didn't even bother to play dumb since they would see him wearing that armor anyway.

"So, your blessing comes from a God or Goddess related to Death." Maya narrowed her eyes.

Theo's answer came in the form of a smile. He neither denied nor admitted it, so this wasn't considered lying.

It was true that Hel was related to this, but the one who gave him the blessing was someone else.

"Ugh. You're pissing me off. When you're already caught red-handed, you're still trying to deny it." Maya clicked her tongue while adding, 'At least, one of my objectives has been completed. Theo's blessing is indeed related to Death.

'If this news is spread, they'll be trying to find Theo a suitable item to power him up. In fact, there might be a huge movement from that person. In this case, I should start searching for an item to power him up alone… This should be enough to entice him.

'Hehe. It's time for me to beat my father. He won't be able to know about Theo's blessing until everything is too late.' Maya smirked and said, "Alright, fine. You can get that thing. In fact, we won't know anything if you simply hide it from us and come to this place alone."

"Thanks." Theo nodded with a smile while thinking, 'What should I do? She misunderstands my blessing. Well, even if she's discovered by others, I can use that knowledge to trick my enemies into thinking I have Hel's blessing instead of Loki. That's good, I guess. It's not my fault that she misunderstands this.'

"Anyway, I'll be finding the entrance while you two focus on hunting the monsters and try to reach Supreme Rank as soon as possible. After that, we'll fight the one hiding inside the dungeon. Is that alright?"

"I have no objection." Maya nodded with a smug smile.

Agata also nodded but didn't say anything as if something was inside her head.
