God of Tricksters

"This…"

The students were staring at each other, never expecting Theo to be from the Star Group and he even had the quota for the skill upgrade. It was no wonder why he wanted to tell them about going past their limit.

In the teacher's information, they could only see Theo's name and curriculum after all. The same applied to the students. There were only the student's picture, name, and rank.

The government didn't want them to rely on their connection because they came here as a student, not representative of their influences.

And that move backfired on them because they thought Theo wasn't someone important and tried to go against him.

Unfortunately, Theo was the person sent by the Star Group and had all kinds of benefits. If Theo wanted them dead, no one could be alive except for Grace, whose father was the Great Magician.

Though, Grace herself was different from them. She had the best conduct in this class, making everyone jealous.

They thought Grace could achieve something like that due to her background, and that was the reason why they were staring at each other.

"You… you were the one stopping me from receiving the recommendation."

"I shouldn't have listened to your words."

"You were the one persuading me, not the other way around. If you didn't try to talk about it, I would have retained my recommendation. Everything was your fault."

They tried to pin the blame on others to make themselves look correct. However, Grace bit her lips, thinking Theo left the room because he knew what they would do after that.

Since he didn't like to see them fighting, he just left them alone, thinking there would be another person to stop them. And that person would probably be the next one receiving their recommendation. At the very least, Theo would forget about their mistake previously and they could start doing something to earn the recommendation.

As she expected, Theo was actually watching the entire class through the Skylink. There was a camera that recorded their lesson.

"Hmm… There is no sound. I guess they want the teacher himself to explain the curriculum instead of watching this." Theo muttered with a frown. Just by arguing alone, they had received another minus point from Theo.

However, his eyes were glued to Grace, thinking she would be stopping them. But to his surprise, a guy slammed his fist on the table.

*Bam!*

The students were startled as they followed the noise's direction.

The guy shouted, "All of you are so immature. Have you not learned your lesson? The teacher has told us to improve ourselves and get his recognition. Yet, all of you here are trying to pin the blame on others!

"What are you trying to achieve from blaming others? Do you just want to feel good? Do you think our Teacher will accept that you pin the blame on others when all of you are at fault? We have no one to blame other than ourselves!"

The guy gritted his teeth, glaring at them.

"Of course, I know that. But aren't you frustrated when others drag you down?"

"Of course, I'm frustrated. However, I should be blamed for even listening to them. If I had some trust in the teacher, I wouldn't have been in this situation! So, I am at fault."

They couldn't say anything after that. On the one hand, they knew they were at fault. The easiest way to escape from this problem was by sacrificing others. On the other hand, they didn't know whether Theo would simply accept it or not. They hadn't found out about the hidden camera yet.

Theo was sitting in the teacher's room while watching everything live. He was amused that there was someone else who stopped them.

But when he saw Grace's expression, he knew the latter had realized it. She just let someone take that opportunity.

'This is interesting.' Theo smiled, assessing them from their gesture alone.

Suddenly, Ruby opened the door, finding Theo inside.

"Hmm? Mr. Ary?"

Theo glanced at her and said, "Hello. You're done with your lesson?"

"Yes. I have explained to them about the curriculum. So, it's best to let them have some time to prepare for their lesson."

Theo nodded.

"What are you watching?" Ruby asked while taking a peek at the video. "This is… your students? They seem to be fighting…"

"Yeah." Theo nodded with a nonchalant expression as if he didn't have any intention to stop them.

"Can you even allow a fight like this? Shouldn't you stop this, Mr. Ary?"

"No. Why should I even bother with them when they're the ones who want to fight?"

"But as a teacher, you should have stopped them and given them the reason why they shouldn't fight with each other."

"Unfortunately, the world is not that forgiving. They might be students in one class, but they're also experts in one group. If an argument like this destroys their cooperation, then that's their limit." Theo shook his head.

"In the real battlefield, you would have died if you did something like this. So, I'll just let them fight."

"But it'll be awkward if you teach the students who have grudges against each other."

"Not really. They'll be listening to me when the lecture starts." Theo shrugged, having full confidence that they would do nothing except for listening to his lecture.

"Well…" Ruby didn't know how to convince Theo. At the same time, Theo had the full authority of his class, so it was better to let him handle them as he wished until it was too much.

Whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, it seemed that Theo had been becoming a magnet, attracting all sorts of problems.

When he was about to reply to Ruby, a guy slammed the table and entered the room with a smug smile. "Hmph."

He looked around and found Ruby and Theo sitting in the corner, chatting. Seeing Theo here, the guy couldn't help but smile, thinking it was the right time to humiliate him.
