God of Tricksters

Chapter 85 - Virtual World

After that meeting, Theo quickly headed to the last of the three buildings in this school. Surprisingly, the lobby looked similar to that of Fighter Temple. It had a huge lobby with only a single counter that managed the entire fighting system.

On top of the counter hung a huge screen where he found a few codes like F21 and F549. He then remembered the number he got from Major Sam. If he looked at the pattern, his code would be D55. So many people were waiting for their turns, making Theo feel a bit nauseous.

He walked to a little less crowded area and found three corridors with "A", "B", and "C" on them. When he took another look at the screen, he would find another code that seemed to be telling them about their room.

Since they were waiting for an unknown period of time, Theo decided to go to the corner while practicing his Awareness. It shouldn't be that visible for others since he didn't openly show it.

Surprisingly, their turn came one match before lunch. He furrowed his eyebrows when he looked at the match-up.

D1 and D55 in A-023 Versus J2 and J109 in C-017

'Hmm?' Theo narrowed his eyes. Without anyone telling him, the moment he saw Alea's code, he realized that number was based on their ranking on the first day of their training camp. In other words, he would be fighting against the number two in J Group together with someone who almost reached the top one hundred people.

Although he expected that someone powerful as J2 would choose a better guy, Theo instantly knew J109 was also a first-year student like him.

Since their combination was most likely the same, he became a bit fired up, thinking he would be fighting against someone in the same year while Alea took care of the other.

He let Alea go first before following her to Corridor A a few minutes later, considering they had thirty minutes of preparation and there was nothing to be reviewed in the first battle.

Inside, He found so many doors inside the six feet wide corridor.

According to the distance between the door alone, he could roughly judge the room's space. Though, he ignored it for the time being and headed straight to his room.

A-023

After confirming the tag on the door, Theo opened the door, entered the small room, and quickly closed the door.

The room was twenty feet wide and sixty feet long. On his right was a wall stretching from the door to the end of the room with a screen in the middle. On his left was a two feet tall cylinder known as a training capsule. There was one in the opposite direction, only separated by a table. Behind the table was a long couch connecting from one training capsule to the other.

If there were no training capsule, he would think of this room as a karaoke room to be honest.

Alea had been waiting for him while typing a few things on the table.

Out of curiosity, he saw her profile on the table's screen, showing the allocation of her points.

"Come sit." Alea gently tapped the spot next to her as if telling him to sit there. "I just finished allocating my points. It's your turn."

Theo nodded his head and sat on the spot she pointed at earlier while Alea typing a few things before the screen showed Theo's picture with a blank status point.

"The point is a normal Level 50 person. I've allocated mine at a similar ratio as my current status points. What will you do with yours?"

Theo contemplated for a moment and started allocating his points. Because there was no need to fight for a long time, he allocated slightly less on his Magic Power and turned them into Strength.

"This will be my status."

"That's good enough." Alea nodded with a smile before swiping from left to right, changing the screen.

"Hmm." Theo furrowed his eyebrows when he saw two pictures along with their names. One of them turned out to be one of his bullies, the one that had gotten physical with him other than Laust and Sihan.

Hontar Dagher.

Scott Brown.

"This guy, Hontar, is among the top ten in this school. His and my fighting styles are pretty similar. I will take care of him since the other one is a first-year like you. Do you have something to add?"

Theo contemplated and asked, "Is there any rule in this battle?"

Alea nodded and swiped the screen again, showing three rules.

"There are only three rules. First, no physical contact before the match starts. Both teams only need to say "start" for the countdown to start. Second, the information you put here is guaranteed by the temples, so your information will be safe. Feel free to enter all of your skills. Of course, you will be disqualified if we realize you don't have the skill yourself. Last but not least, wreck your opponent."

"I have no doubt that the instructor was the one writing the last rule." Theo's eyebrows twitched.

"Agreed." Alea facepalmed and shook her head helplessly.

"Anyway, as you said earlier, you take care of this Hontar while I handle the other one." He paused for a moment. "Still, please don't say or react to anything that will happen before the match, alright?"

Although she didn't know why Theo requested it, she still nodded. "Okay."

After inputting all skills except Blink, Theo then rose from the couch and looked at the capsule.

Since this was Theo's first time, Alea walked with him and showed him what to do. "You do it like this."

The capsule's door was opened with a single push of a button.

"Just enter with your spear. It will scan the weapon information and recreate it in the Virtual World."

Theo nodded and entered the capsule. The inside had some rubber that seemed to be going to withstand his body weight when he entered the Virtual World.

"To activate the capsule, you need to say "Activate" understand?"

"Yep." Theo then tried to lean back while matching his posture with the one shown on it. The rubber then came out and locked him up gently to prevent him from falling to the floor.

"I'm going to finish everything else. You can experience the Virtual World first." Alea waved her hand and closed the capsule's door.

Theo closed his eyes and said without hesitation, "Activate."

Suddenly, he felt something changed and opened his eyes, finding himself inside a one hundred by one hundred feet room. The sidewalls and ceiling were completely white, while the floor was filled with short green grasses.

He tried moving his body while raising his hand, looking at his spear.

"There's no abnormality. It's like moving my own body." Theo was satisfied since there wouldn't be a problem in this state.

Not long after, Alea appeared behind him and surprised him with a question. "What do you think?"

Theo's body shook, and he turned around, replying to her. "Yes, I don't have a problem."

"Good. Now we need to wait for our opponents."

Theo agreed and waited for a whole three minutes before two young men appeared out of thin air.

The first guy was a collected black-haired young man. He wielded a sword in his hand. However, the other one was a blonde-haired male with a slightly bigger body than the other. He laughed out loud when he found Theo becoming his opponent.

"To think we will meet again, Theodore Griffith. I need to thank God for granting me this opportunity. I can't wait to ruin your chance to go to another stage since you are going to lose. No need to thank—"

Before he finished his words, he suddenly felt a breeze around his cheek. He widened his eyes and found that Theo already raised his hand with his spear planted on the ground behind him.

"What did you do? Were you going to attack me earlier?"

Theo chuckled as he looked down on Scott. He made a mocking smile and said sarcastically, "Oops. I think your voice is more powerful than your fighting skill. My spear missed too far from your face because of your speech. I'm impressed."
