Chapter 1336 Last Lesson

Chapter 1336 Last Lesson
Two days later.
Theo and his group had finally returned to his mansion.
Rea was shocked when Theo suddenly brought two people back from this trip.
"This is…" Rea tried to recall their faces. She found them together when she was searching for Theo's background.
"They are Phyrill and Ellen. Phyrill is our last member." Theo smiled. "I need you to take care of their admission this time since the negotiation is needed with the World Martial Institute. Here is the weapon for the negotiation."
Theo gave her a Skylink, making Rea startled. She had a wry smile on her face as she asked a question that she already knew the answer to. "Negotiation? Do you mean blackmail?"
Theo never gave a simple weapon even in the negotiation. He loved to drop a bomb or even a nuke during the negotiation, controlling the entire conversation. That was why this Skylink should be enough to handle the negotiation alone, and her job was to ensure that everything went smoothly.
"I understand." Rea let out a long sigh.
"That's right. Has Felix returned yet?"
"Nope. He's still on the other side; no information about him yet." Rea shook her head. "Are we going to search for him?"
"No. Let him be." Theo thought for a moment and asked, "In that case, can you call Coline and Chris here tomorrow? I need them to finally reach the Mythical Rank."
"Ah, okay. I'll call them."
"That's right. How is your progress? Do you want to go with me to become a Mythical Rank?"
"No. I have asked Ryo to accompany me to become a Mythical Rank Expert. Don't worry. I'm just one step away from mastering my power. Don't worry though. I'll surely reach that step within the next four months." Rea explained.
Theo glanced at Ryo, who nodded his head. "I see. If that's the case, I'll let you do what you ought to do."
"That's right. Do you have any big plans for the next four months?"
"I'm just going to take two months of a hunting trip to reach the Mythical Rank before using the remaining of my time to adjust my power to the characteristics of the Mythical Rank." Theo shook his head, showing that he didn't have any special plan for the next four months.
"I see. That's not a problem since my schedule is similar to yours, but I still need another month to master my power."
"Got it." Theo nodded. "By the way, come to my room tonight."
"I understand, though, since there are two new people here, shouldn't you add 'to discuss our plan' instead of leaving it there? Won't it be a problem if they misunderstand our relationship? Not that I mind though."
"They're aware of my choice and my character, so…" Theo shrugged as he walked inside, ignoring her statement.
Rea chuckled. After Theo entered the mansion, Rea turned to Phyrill and Ellen. "Hello, my name is Nagasawa Rea, my father is Nagasawa Ken, the Sword Saint. It's my pleasure to meet his friends."
"Hello." Phyrill and Ellen politely nodded to her.
"In here, you don't need to be that formal just because of the difference in age. Just call our names since we've gotten used that way. I'll also explain some stuff regarding the group and lead you to the temporary mansion." Rea smiled at them, starting to work again.
"Thank you."
"It's alright. If you have something you want to do or need, just call me, and I'll provide it. There is no formal agreement between all of us to be honest, so there's nothing to bind you to this group. But I think our group is quite solid. For now, I should introduce both of you to the people in this mansion." Rea extended her smile, asking them to follow her.
Since he wasn't needed here, Ryo went back to his mansion while Ergene took some rest in her room.
Meanwhile, Theo, who was about to get some rest, suddenly felt an overwhelming pain in his mind as if someone was calling him.
Since that was the case, Theo hurriedly sat on the bed in a lotus pose and closed his eyes, receiving the call.
He then entered his consciousness. To his surprise, the realm inside his consciousness had changed. Instead of a plain surrounded by hills like the place they always used to meet, he seemed to be inside a huge hall.
The pillars supporting the roof were made of gold, and the ceiling was so tall that he felt he was just an ant.
He stood on top of the red carpet, leading to a huge throne several steps above the floor. It turned out the floor was also made of gold.
On that throne sat down a black-haired man. He placed his chin on his hand, resting on the throne. Looking down at the entire hall, he had a bored expression.
When Theo appeared, he opened his mouth and said, "Welcome."
"!!!" Theo sucked a cold breath. The God of Mischief seemed to be different this time. His expression was serious and cold.
"It seems that you're just one step away from reaching Mythical Rank. That's good, but I want you to understand two things first." The God of Mischief paused for a moment. "First, I'll be the one granting you a skill this time. Yes, I've bestowed you your first skill, Clone Skill. And now, I shall be the last one to close it.
"This skill will be extremely useful for you. And I can only say that you should replace Illusion Manipulation with this skill because that one is too lacking compared to my skill. You'll understand later why I want it that way.
"As for the second reason… I'm different from the rest. I won't be granting you skill that easily. Instead, you need to earn the qualification to wield this skill. And the only way to show it is to fight me!"
"What? We're going to fight?" Theo widened his eyes in surprise.
"That's right. This is your last mission, Theo." The God of Mischief smirked.
