God of Tricksters

"Ha…"

"Ha…"

"Ha…"

Grace was panting. After running for three hours, her stamina was almost exhausted.

When she glanced to the side, there were already twelve students who had given up on this training.

They looked bored, considering they had to wait for the rest to finish. Some of them even used their Skylink while waiting.

Theo was the only one who kept watching them the whole time. He waited patiently before he saw another person raising their hand.

"I'm sorry, Sir Ary. I don't think I can go on." The guy panted, almost dropping to the ground. His shirt was already drenched in sweat.

Grace had already gotten used to seeing people dropping out. And she didn't blame them since they had truly exhausted all their stamina.

Theo walked toward the guy and patted his shoulder. "Do you think you can do one last lap before you finish?"

The guy frowned. He felt too tired, but listening to Theo, who only wanted one last lap, he thought he could do it.

He took a deep breath before nodding his head. "I understand. I'll try."

"Good."

Theo nodded and returned to his seat, watching the guy run his one last lap.

Surprisingly, the guy who thought he had reached his limit completed his one last lap. And Theo came to him again and asked, "What do you think about one more lap? Maybe you'll see something good after this one more lap. And it'll be good for your track record too."

The guy frowned, not understanding why Theo kept insisting. But the sole thought of having a good track record from this event excited him. If he could get something like that, it wouldn't be weird if others tried to recruit him. And at that time, he would be assured for life.

The guy bit his lips and started running again.

And yes, he finished another lap. Seeing this situation, Theo came to him and said, "Congratulations. What if I add some recommendations if you can finish another run?"

"I…" The guy became even more tempted when he heard Theo would give the recommendation. The teachers, who had been invited here, were elites from many influences. In fact, they might also be one of the recruiters.

By teaching them and observing their strength during the event, they would invite these people to their influence by giving a good contract.

So, the guy had no reason to reject it since Theo wanted to give everything to him.

His speed had slowed down significantly and he often walked because he was too exhausted. Unfortunately, he dropped to his knees with regret on his face.

He wanted to get the recommendation, but it was impossible. He was already too exhausted.

"I'm sorry, Teacher. I don't think I can move my leg anymore."

Hearing the guy's confession, Theo nodded and picked him up. He brought him out of the track and gave him a drink.

After that, Theo focused on the remaining people on the track. One by one, they gave up.

But like the guy earlier, Theo asked them to do a few more laps. Some managed to do one more lap before falling to the ground, some did more than one. It varied depending on their determination, willpower, and strength.

Even Grace couldn't think of any reason for Theo to torture them like this. Everything Theo said felt like a lie because there was no way he would be giving all of them the recommendation.

At the same time, some people judged Theo as a devil who wanted to kill his students. They regretted entering his group since the other groups would have an easier time. Even their lesson would be more interesting and useful compared to Theo, who only asked them to run endlessly.

"I'm sorry, Sir. I can't go on anymore." Grace, the last person in the field, raised her hand as she almost collapsed from exhaustion.

Theo was there to support her. He carried her to the side and said, "You've done a good job."

Grace didn't understand what he meant. She tried to think about it but to no avail.

After gathering them on the side, Theo looked at them and said, "You can rest for three hours. You can wash your body, change your clothes, and eat your meal before gathering in the class. I'll be informing you which class to go through the Skylink. That's all."

Without hesitation, Theo walked away, not saying a single praise after they finished their run.

"…" They were speechless. They thought Theo would say more than that, but no, he just walked away.

"What the fuck?"

"Is he really a teacher?"

"We have bad luck getting him as his teacher."

"That's right. He just wants to torture us."

"It might be because of you guys who got thrown here we're suffering right now. He wanted to bully you guys, but because he could show it openly, he tortured us as well."

"He told us that we could change our teacher soon, right?"

"I'm going to pick another teacher for this!"

"Yeah. That's better than this trash teacher. He couldn't do anything, yet, he picked a fight against Eric Salvatore. And he would drag us down with him."

They were complaining about Theo's training. It was boring, made no sense, and exhausting. There was no reason to have training like this at all.

"He must have a reason for making us run." Grace tried to stop them but to no avail. She only received backlash after saying that.

"A reason? You mean, torture us?"

"Watch your mouth. She is…"

They wanted to rebuke her, but they were scared of her identity as well, making them not know what to do.

In the end, they could only look away, not talking to her. This was the only option if they didn't want to antagonize her and not support the teacher.

Even Grace couldn't find any reason for Theo to give this training. She thought it would be to improve their stamina since they were learning Magic Combat, but this wasn't a way to increase their stamina.

Hence, she couldn't help Theo at all.
