God of Tricksters

Chapter 1120 Competition

After accepting that challenge, they removed the table between them so that the two could comfortably use their power.

Even Christopher didn't need the chair he used to sit as a pianist because the one who challenged him was none other than an amateur who didn't know anything about music.

"Since we've agreed to the terms, let's draft a contract as well as a video about our performance," Theo smirked and typed a few things. Because he wasn't that good about law and contract, Theo just stated some most important things, such as the agreement and the condition.

Felix and the butler put their Skylinks on the side, recording the whole situation. In this way, both of them had proof.

As soon as everything had been set in place, Theo said, "Since I'm just an amateur, I'll start first. I will show my skill in front of an expert."

Theo's words were filled with challenge and provocation. Christopher only snorted to reply to his statement, allowing Theo to start. His attitude was so confident that it was as if he was saying, "I want to see what kind of music you can play."

Christopher was mocking Theo this whole time. Obviously, even Felix didn't understand why Theo wanted to challenge him like this. But if they were talking about Theo, the latter wouldn't challenge something he didn't have the confidence to win.

Just like him risking his life to save his daughter, Felix knew there was a hidden meaning behind those conditions, or else Theo wouldn't challenge him in the first place.

He noticed how the entire conversation had been in Theo's favor this whole time.

Unfortunately, Felix didn't have time to think about it as he was focused on Christopher and the butler, preventing them from doing anything funny.

Theo smiled and raised his hands.

Suddenly, a piano appeared before all of them. The strings, the keys, everything. The piano itself was perfect.

"Heh. At least you can make a piano." Christopher sneered at him, looking at the illusion that Theo used. His anger was so much that he didn't realize Theo was using something extraordinary. Illusion would be the key to Theo's identity, yet he didn't even realize it.

Unfortunately, the calmest person among them, the butler, couldn't differentiate between the illusion and the real deal because of Theo's Reality Order. Just like the meteor Theo used during his fight against Winston, the piano looked real in front of a Supreme Rank Expert like him. Only Isaac could see through this, but he had already left the room.

So, the only person in the room that noticed Theo's illusion was Felix.

'Illusion… Now that I think about it, he used an illusion to cover his face back then. Can he actually use an illusion to that level?' Felix narrowed his eyes before brushing that thought off. 'It doesn't matter to me. He saves Millie, that's all.'

He would be lying if he wasn't curious about Theo's identity, but he couldn't care less now. Even if he thought about it, he wouldn't be able to know Theo's real identity since he had been too focused on Millie and never looked at the news that much unless something big happened.

Everything soon changed when Theo pressed the first key.

*Deng!*

The first key was on the right side of the piano, so the sound was supposed to create a high-pitched melody. Yet, the sound the piano produced was the opposite of what it was supposed to do.

"!!!" Christopher became more annoyed because Theo couldn't even produce the right sound. No matter how good the piano's outer appearance was, what made it a piano was the sound. He never thought that Theo would go so low in this challenge. "You bastard!"

Theo didn't say anything about his performance or his curse. He continued playing like it was no one business. As long as the two minutes hadn't finished, Theo would play no matter how bad the melody was.

As expected, even Felix was disturbed by the sound to the point he had a weird facial expression. If the pianist played those classic pieces like Chopin or Sonata, he wouldn't be able to tell the difference since, in his amateur eyes, if the melody was good, he thought it was good no matter how lowly the creator was.

However, even with his amateur eyes, he couldn't find a single good thing from this melody. It was so disturbing that he wanted to stop Theo.

Still, Theo told them that they were going to play for two minutes. He could only endure these gruesome two minutes.

While enduring the pain in his ears, Felix glared at both Christopher and the butler to stop them.

Christopher was ready to erupt his anger while the butler often listened to his master's play, so it was clear how annoyed they were when Theo played the piano. It was similar to a kid who just beat random keys and called it a song.

*Deng!*

"Two minutes are up. I've done my best," said Theo with a cheerful tone as if he had just played at a grand concert.

"You bastard. What you did is disrespectful to the music industry!" Christopher roared. He couldn't contain himself anymore.

Yet, Theo simply replied with a calm tone. "I've done my best. What? You want to attack me?"

"Master. Harming him means it's your loss." The butler grabbed Christopher's shoulders and stopped him.

Christopher's body trembled when the butler mentioned him losing. He suddenly stopped his outburst and fell into deep thought.

'Wait a minute. Is this his plan the entire time? He wants me to attack him so that I have no choice but to agree to be his subordinate.'

The moment he realized this situation, his heart was shaken. To think he would be played that far by this brat, he felt ashamed.

"Tsk." Theo clicked his tongue and looked away.

That action felt like answering Christopher's doubt. Theo even went all the way to glare at the butler as if he was angry at him for breaking his plan. And because Theo didn't mention anything about outside help, he couldn't stop him from helping Christopher realize this scheme.

Even Felix lost all hope when Theo openly admitted it. He thought Theo would lose this time.

"Thank you, Hab. Without you, I would have lost." Christopher smiled and thanked his butler.

"No problem. This is my job as your assistant, Master." The butler made a smug smile as if he had just played a big role in his master's victory.

After hearing those words, Christopher took a few deep breaths to calm his mind. Surprisingly, it worked like magic as there was no trace of anger on his face anymore.

The situation became tranquil as his expression became serene. When Christopher raised his hands, the keys of the piano appeared in front of him. Even without the body, they would produce the same sound as the real piano.

"Here I go…" He said as he pressed the first key.

Unfortunately for him, the moment he pressed the first key, the piano suddenly disappeared into thin air, leaving not a single tune.

"Huh?" Christopher widened his eyes as he searched for his piano. He could still sense the Magic Power, but the piano was gone.

In that instant, he looked at Theo with a dumbfounded face. "You…"

"What's wrong? You still have one minute and fifty-five seconds left," said Theo with a smile.
