God of Tricksters

Chapter 1121 Three Years

The moment Theo said those words, Christopher couldn't contain his anger. He shouted, "You bastard. You're using your power to sabotage me!"

"I have stated the rule. We will play one song, and the people behind us will judge who is better. Because it's dangerous to use our power, we can't cause any harm to the other party. That's all. You have signed the agreement, and I haven't done anything to cause you any harm." Theo shrugged as he explained his reasoning nonchalantly.

"You—" Christopher gritted his teeth. "Hab, ki—"

When Christopher was about to say, 'Kill him,' he stopped. There were four people in this room, two Mythical Rank Experts and two Supreme Rank Experts.

It was clear that both Theo and Felix were stronger in their respective ranks. Theo had even shown the power that could neutralize his power. It was clear that even if he tried to support his butler with the support skills, Theo would neutralize them.

Felix would kill him, and Theo would easily defeat his butler. That was why giving that remark, even if he was blinded by rage, was not something he should do.

Luckily, the calmness he had earlier managed to stop his outburst at the last second.

Christopher gritted his teeth. This was Theo's way of making him admit defeat.

Without hesitation, Christopher raised his hands again, trying to summon the piano. But before he could do anything, Theo had erased the piano into nothingness. But the most annoying thing Theo did was announce the time every time he removed his power.

"One minute and thirty seconds left."

Christopher couldn't give up that easily since he needed to follow Theo's order if he lost. Yet, he was helpless because the piano would be gone every time he summoned it.

"Five…"

"Four…"

Eventually, Theo started the countdown with a calm tone as he didn't have any challenge when fighting against Christopher.

What Theo wanted to show Christopher was the power that could render him useless.

"Kh…" Christopher gnashed his teeth. His forehead was covered with sweat, but he couldn't do anything other than wait for his loss.

"Three…"

"Two…"

"One…"

"Zero…"

Theo finished his countdown, closing the competition. "It seems that I've won. Our battle was a piano battle, and you couldn't even produce a single sound. No matter how bad my skill was, it would mean nothing if you couldn't even press those keys."

"You bastard. You set me up!" Christopher rose from his seat while releasing his killing intent.

Felix instantly took out his sword as he prepared to take his life. However, Theo raised his hand first, stopping him.

He leaned back on his chair while saying, "Set you up? You're the one who told me all those things. First, I need to have a power far stronger than you. I did show you… Even if my level is too low right now, my power is enough to render you useless. I already told you that without even using any help from my connections, I could defeat you just fine.

"Second, I didn't set you up. You were the one who couldn't even see through the conditions. Instead of checking the conditions, you actually looked at me with contempt and anger. You never saw me as a strong contender. That's why you lose now."

Theo followed the rules they had agreed upon. Christopher had no right to tell him anything.

"What? This is just like taxes. You can do anything to lower your taxes by exploiting loopholes. I'm doing the same. What? Are you telling me that you never deduct your own taxes?" Theo chuckled.

"If I could play, there was no way I would lose!" Christopher still didn't want to lose.

However, Theo shrugged and rolled his eyes. "I've already explained the reason. Just admit it. Even Jeff was more respectable than you."

"You—!" Christopher wanted to refute him, but it was hard to find any words to respond to Theo's words. After all, Theo wasn't wrong.

Although his action wasn't chivalrous, he abided by the rules and did everything he could to win. That was why Theo started first. He simply didn't want Christopher to think of a way to sabotage him. And him continuously provoking Christopher was his way of directing Christopher's attention.

Just like he predicted, Christopher would be too focused on the provocation and forget about the real deception.

"According to the agreement, you're going to be my subordinate." Theo shrugged. "I wanted to show you that even if you ran away, your life would be over. After all, I could simply erase your power… No one would accept you that way, and with this agreement, you would become the public enemy."

Christopher clicked his tongue as he had no words to refute him. He wanted to deny the agreement, but Theo had saved the written agreement while Felix had secured the recording proof.

There was no escape anymore.

"…"

Felix looked at Theo with a worried expression. Theo never recruited someone with this kind of treatment. Theo saved his life while Jeff was impressed by Theo's unique ability. They both were sincere to Theo because he had earned their respect.

Different from them, Christopher was thoroughly angry at Theo. He was afraid that Christopher would become a double-edged sword that would betray him in the future.

Obviously, Theo already knew about this problem. From the start, Christopher had shown his dissatisfaction in getting recruited. Theo already knew that it was close to impossible to recruit Christopher today.

Hence, he chose to trick him into making him join. Of course, this would threaten Theo's position because of his hatred.

That was why Theo had another solution to solve it.

He raised three fingers. "Three years."

"…" Christopher narrowed his eyes, glaring at Theo.

"Since I won because of my scheme, you just need to follow me for three years. After that, whether you want to continue to follow me or not will be up to you. And within those three years, I don't think we will move too much, so you don't need to worry.

"However, I want your loyalty for those three years. Follow my orders and believe in me. I won't send you to your death, and I will even explain why I give you that order if we have time. I'm willing to step back and propose this three-year agreement to you."
