God of Tricksters

Chapter 324 - Return

An hour later.

Alea's eyebrows kept twitching as her eyes seemed to be filled with annoyance. She squinted her eyes and glanced to the side. "I have a question… Why is she here?"

All of them actually had the same question in their mind because they never expected they would return to the hotel with another person in their car.

And that person had been smiling from ear to ear as if she didn't care about what others thought about her actions.

"Why can't I go with you? Our destination is the same, so it's more efficient this way." She chuckled.

Theo let out a long sigh and instinctively placed his hand on her head since Nella usually stopped talking when he did it. "Alright, alright. I am sorry for the inconvenience, but since we are going to talk after this, it's more efficient this way. If it's not possible, then Nella and I can go back in a separate vehicle."

"No, ah, no. I don't mean it that way." Alea gently stroked her cheeks and looked away. "I mean she can… It just feels weird without knowing the context."

Nella remained silent while staring at Alea.

When their eyes met, a smug smile appeared on Nella's face.

Alea crossed her arms and looked away.

On the way, despite the silence, Alea and Nella kept staring at each other as if they tried to pick a fight with each other.

Ellen, on the other hand, asked Theo, "Is this what you have in mind?"

"What?" Theo tilted his head in confusion.

"…" Ellen suddenly stopped. She wanted to ask about the result of the earlier negotiation with those seven countries, but she stopped, knowing it was Theo's business. "Never mind."

"Ehm? Okay." Theo nodded. The discussion had disappeared from his mind since he needed to plan everything he needed to do as soon as he returned to the country.

There wasn't much talk in the car. And it was especially awkward after what happened between Theo and Laust. The two refused to even look at each other.

It wasn't like Laust needed to follow Theo's order anymore since he planned to leave the country after this.

As soon as they arrived, all of them quickly came out and went back to their own room. Still, Alea couldn't take her eyes off when Theo and Nella entered the room together.

Although Nella was short like that of a middle-schooler, she was still a 17 years old young lady. And Theo never acknowledged his relationship with the Griffith Family, so she was afraid that Theo would just ignore it altogether and do it.

Unfortunately for her, she couldn't say anything as it would just piss Theo off.

When Theo opened the door, Nella quickly entered the room and looked at the bed.

"Yahoo!" Nella leaped on top of the bed and landed on her back, burying her head in the pillow.

"What are you doing? You should take a shower and wash away your makeup before lying on the bed." Theo shook his head helplessly.

"Lend me your clothes," Nella said. "I am going to stay here for a few days."

"Huh?" Theo squinted his eyes, wondering if he should kick her out right now.

"You misunderstood me." Nella hurriedly explained. "I am going to teach you a bit about External Flow and Materialization. I should be able to answer most of your questions, so when you go back, you can start practicing it. Or… You don't want to learn it?"

"Is it for free?"

"Why are you even asking that? Of course it is." Nella sighed. "I am now curious about your life…"

"It's nothing much." Theo shrugged and pointed at the bathroom. "Anyway, go take a shower. I will grab you some clothes. Also, you should bring your clothes if you want to stay over."

"Does that mean you agree?" A smile appeared on her face as she looked at Theo with expectations.

"Since you want to teach me about External Flow and Materialization, I don't see the reason why I should reject you."

"That's great. I am going to take a shower first." Nella energetically entered the bathroom, leaving Theo alone.

Theo sighed and picked his a white shirt and training pants and put them in front of the bathroom.

After that, he sat on the chair while looking outside.

He closed his eyes and said inwardly, 'I will receive the reward from Nart and Laust. The government will probably reward me with some money. Using all this money, I plan to buy a house a city away from the second teleportation circle where I can meet a higher-level monster to keep leveling up.

'And I believe my brother is also in that place. Since the house should be pretty cheap, I can use the remaining money to buy skills to upgrade my skills. Renting a house is also good, but I can give the house to my brother if I buy it. I can earn more money at that step anyway, so I think it's better to buy a house instead of renting it.

'In any case, I believe School is just an annoyance for me right now. They teach the students the Five Aspects, but now that I am already aware of them, it's better for me to start practicing by myself.

'Alright… It's decided. I will learn another Aspect depending on which guide I get… It's not like the seven countries will be that stingy, right?' Theo smiled. 'And I can keep myself busy with what Nella will teach me later. After finding my brother, it's time for me to move to another country where I may spend the rest of my life there… I guess that's how it is…"

Fifteen minutes later.

"Theo, I am done." Nella came out of the bathroom with the white shirt and training pants while wiping her hair with the towel. "You should take a shower too. I should have finished drying my hair by then."

"Sure." Theo went to the bath without hesitation and took a shower.

After he was done, he saw Nella lying down on the bed while watching the news.

"You done?" Nella rose from the bed. "Good. Let's talk about the Griffith Family."
