God of Tricksters

Seeing them show off their current prowess, Theo didn't have any intention of doing it, knowing that having the last laugh was more important than the short win in the front.

They continued to fight the monsters for a few hours while heading to the control room on the first floor since it was connected to all floors, allowing those who used the facility to have an easy time accessing all floors.

It was a swift sweep from the ground as they managed to clear the first floor in a day. The second day was a bit of a struggle, but it wasn't that hard.

The tough part was when Phyrill was required to sit down for a while to get his inheritance. Because the floor was built as a small labyrinth, the group only needed to protect two entrances, making it easier, but Theo realized something might go wrong if he was the one in Phyrill's position.

After all, one couldn't simply trust Alea since she had messed up a few times, endangering his life continuously. Although it had been solved when he was in command, he couldn't do anything if he went to face the snake again, remembering that the latter told him they would meet again.

In the end, Phyrill finished his inheritance but told the others that the skills he received were a secret, as he planned to show it later when they fought against the Hero Rank Monster.

Not caring much about his skill, Theo asked the team to keep going, only to find Sihan ranking up not long after. In the end, he let the others rest until Sihan finished adjusting to his current rank like Ellen.

Another day passed as they barely finished the second floor after a few hours on the third day. At that time, Theo had reached Level 140, considering he had murdered many Level 180 monsters with the help of Alea and the others. He couldn't do something like that alone, but it didn't mean he would level up slower than when he was alone.

Still, the great reason why they could level up this much was due to the Control Room. It was such a perfect room that existed solely to help the people inside level up.

It provided a resting area, healing area, recovering chambers, and other things. They simply felt their stamina had recovered within one nap that lasted for three to four hours.

Theo finally saw the reason why big families like the Eilric Family were able to create many experts at the same time. He even thought about acquiring a facility like this from a big family, but it wouldn't be possible unless he made a big name for himself in the Grand Gaia.

Hence, he planned to realize that wish and used his big name to raise his net worth and option in the future without caring about his identity anymore. He indeed had waited for too long.

When they were recovering from their fatigue before hitting the third floor, Alea came to him.

She asked about his blessing, noticing that things might not go as planned if she were in charge. Theo praised her without mentioning the danger he met due to her mess to avoid hinting at anything that led to Joker.

Although Theo didn't answer her much, he already had some plans in his mind.

In the end, the group continued on the third floor, hunting down monsters as Laust ranked up while the others protected him.

Before his turn came, Theo asked the others to turn around, hitting all the monsters that chased after them this whole time.

It was a normal move that Theo always used from time to time, but they were surprised he asked it so early.

Even so, no one complained about his decision as the group kept hunting those monsters on their back. Unknowingly, the group had been moving to the Control Room as Theo maintained his level at 150 for a while until they were close to the Control Room before killing a monster that literally maxed his EXP Points.

Theo received the same pain that he experienced in the past. It was none other than the call from the blessing, but he didn't know what to expect in this call other than skill.

The group soon realized that they had returned to the front field in front of the Control Room. It wasn't surprising, but they didn't know what to do and continued hunting the monsters.

Alea, on the other hand, noticed Theo's face that gradually turned pale as if he endured massive pain. She knew that Theo needed to stay inside the safe place for a while before she realized why he led the team back to the Control Room.

Alea tried to call him out, but the latter had already opened the Control Room's door, which stunned everyone.

They all stopped and looked at him with a confused expression, but the answer indeed surprised all the people except Alea as they heard, "I need to stay inside."

Everything happened in an instant as the group realized why Theo had them hunting near the control room where he could stay safe inside.

It turned out that when he reached Level 150, he needed to receive his inheritance. In other words, Theo actually had a blessing and no one knew about it.

Alea thought Theo had just hidden it well when they were hunting together, but the others didn't share the same opinion. Instead, Phyrill and Ellen were utterly shocked by the revelation because they thought only Alea and Phyrill had gotten a blessing in their group.

Sihan, on the other hand, remained silent and observed him. But Laust… He crossed his arms and gripped them tightly while gnashing his teeth, knowing that he had lost to Theo once again.

Theo didn't care about their opinion since people would realize it sooner or later. As long as they didn't know that his blessing was a God Rank Blessing, it should be fine, making him even more mysterious.

He simply entered the control room and sat on the floor, facing another great "battle".
