God of Tricksters

Chapter 233 - Predicament

Theo had a new haircut, shortening his messy dark blue hair a little bit. His bang gracefully laid on his forehead, highlighting his grey eyes. He wore a light blue vest and tuxedo to cover his white shirt together with white silk pants.

His previous messy hair and rundown clothes had disappeared, replaced by a fresh new look. It suited his cool and aloof expression the most.

Even Alea and Ellen were stunned when they first saw his appearance.

"Have you guys eaten yet, especially girls? You took a bit too long, ain't you?" Theo asked with a calm expression while fixing his shirt's sleeves, hiding it under his tuxedo.

"Cool, aloof, but caring handsome guy…" Ellen commented on what she thought about Theo and quickly took her Skylink, taking a picture of Theo.

"What are you doing?" Theo tilted his head in confusion.

"Do you know that you have a fan club right now?"

"Huh?" Theo was stupefied. "I don't have time to check it."

"Right. I am just telling you as one of the managers there."

"What did you say?"

"I am one of the founders, you know. I already said I am your first fan." Ellen chuckled and asked while showing his picture. "Do you mind if I share this? I am sure it will become popular."

"Do you think I will agree? I don't wish for a fan club…" Theo shook his head.

"Of course, but your age is perfect for it. And the fact that you're single, a rising star, and have no huge family background makes you the perfect target for girls. I mean, unlike the three next to you, you're more down to earth, making one think it's more feasible to date you than the three guys."

"…" Theo pinched the bridge of his nose, knowing it was something unavoidable.

"Anyway, I will save this, okay? Hehe, I got an exclusive shoot on new Theo… Even without these clothes, I am sure you will stun many people with the new haircut alone. You should pay attention to your appearance, you know…" Ellen gave a thumbs up.

"Well, you are also charming tonight." Theo nodded as he complimented her back.

"Thank you." Ellen then pointed at Alea. "You should compliment her as well, you know. After all, I am sure that you two need to show up because you are the leaders of this group… For the red carpet, according to Instructor Radvils. They want to see all eight groups after all. We're just going to enjoy the scene from behind."

Theo gently scratched the back of his head and looked at Alea, who obviously became very stunning tonight. However, he remembered when Alea had a messed up fashion sense in order to cover her face.

"Well, you don't look a mess like back then when I don't know whether you're mature, tomboy, or whatsoever."

"That's not a compliment." Alea pouted.

"You have complimented yourself. I shouldn't add more to avoid making you arrogant." Theo shrugged.

"I wonder when someone will smite this guy." Alea shook her head helplessly and sighed.

"You should do it yourself." Ellen chuckled and continued, "Anyway, we should go right now. Can't afford to be late…"

Theo and the others agreed with Ellen and left the building, finding a long floating car, perfect for this occasion, prepared specially for them.

It took them half an hour to reach the venue and as one would expect, they saw so many people standing in front of the venue. Many people were actually cheering for them.

They could barely see another team having a photo session next to the hall.

Before they came out, the driver asked, "I am informed that there are two leaders in this team. Would you please walk side by side? After a minute, the rest of the team can start walking to take the picture. Don't forget to lock your arms together for the media. There will be another guy leading you to the banquet hall later."

"…" Theo remained silent while Ellen enjoyed this. "Theo, even if you hate it, you need to do it. Choose! Become a laughing stock or a cool leader!"

"I know." Theo let out a sigh as the driver finally left the car, opening the door for them. Theo was the first to come out as he took everyone's attention due to how much difference he had become.

"Look!"

"That's Theodore Griffith."

"He is so different."

"I have a feeling that he is handsome, but this is beyond my imagination. To think a haircut can change people so much…"

"Of course. He looked a bit rundown before."

Theo ignored them and extended his hand inside the car as Alea's hand gently rested on top of his hand.

He slowly helped her come out, showing their appearance together.

All of them had their breath taken away when they saw both of them.

Alea slipped her hand on Theo's arm as she smiled and waved to all of them. After that, she smiled at Theo, "Let's go."

Theo nodded and walked together with Alea under so many flashlights from the camera. If there were only one leader, they would probably have a mild reaction, but due to Thersland having two leaders, they all couldn't help but comment.

"I wonder if they're a couple."

"They look perfect."

"To think someone who keeps fighting on the other side would be this handsome and beautiful."

Unintentionally, it started turning into gossip.

They took a picture together as the leaders of the group while Theo was lamenting his predicament, thinking he shouldn't have revealed his strength yet and got mistaken as the leader.

Even if he tried to explain it, the management would surely hope he could do it together with Alea. They were the only ones who had two leaders after all. It was a scoop that everybody loved.

Alea couldn't help but feel happy since the one who kept looking down on her got the retribution. He needed to be with her until they entered the hall, so she planned to savor the short win she received from this situation even though she had her priority wrong.
