Chapter 298 - Talk

After a while, Theo finally opened his eyes, feeling a bit refreshed. "I see. So that's how it is."

Sitting on the bed, Theo summoned his clone. However, the clone suddenly punched the original and made it disappear like it was the clone.

"It seems you have comprehended it a little bit. Your next task is to understand how to make the illusion a reality."

"It's not a reality for me, but for others, right?"

"Depends on your target. At some point, you will also need to cast the illusion to yourself." Alea smiled.

"Well, I used the illusion to make people think I'm summoning my clone, but the real trick is that I summon my clones and use blink to make it look like the real clone. Ugh. I don't have any sentences to simplify it at the moment because I haven't fully comprehended it yet. But that's the gist of it."

Alea nodded. "In any case, that's what I want to teach you. You need to keep improving your mastery and use your brain to overcome the so-called absolute power. Tell them that tricks can defeat absolute power as well."

"I will. It's going to be tough, but I just glimpsed the possibility."

"That's good. Still, I am impressed that a human like you doesn't ogle this beauty here." Alea crossed her arms, looking at Theo as if he was impotent. She raised her plump breast with her hands while saying, "Come, come. This woman is the closest one to you right now. How about you taste her a bit? This is your consciousness, so she won't know."

"What are you saying…" Theo facepalmed and shook his head in disappointment.

"That's it. I am going to teach you my Metamorphosis power next time."

"The one that can give bir—" Theo's mouth was covered by her hand as the latter glared at him with killing intent. He remembered a certain story about him. Even Odin agreed not to speak anything to get that eight-legged horse. The one before him certainly didn't want to discuss it.

"You're forbidden to say it unless you're tired of your life. I can trap you inside here for a few years and mess up with your life, you know."

"That's impossible." Theo shook his head. "I don't have the exact explanation, but I know that it's impossible for you to trap me here. In fact, coming here alone should drain your power, right?"

"Tch. I don't know whether I should be happy or not to get someone smart." She shook her head. "Moving on. The second reason is I want to talk to you about one topic."

"Hmm?" Theo squinted his eyes.

"I am telling you how to annoy someone. I love it when someone loses their tempers." She made an evil smirk, reminiscing about the past.

"Annoy someone? For what reason? It's not like I am planning to make an enemy out of nowhere."

"Nah, it's not like that. This is how you annoy someone to your advantage. I know that's hard for you to learn, but as long as you can do it from time to time, it's already good."

"Annoy someone to my advantage? Is that kind of communication skill?"

"Yeah. To put it simply, you just need to do what they don't want."

"That's it?"

"Yep. Doing it is easier said than done. There are several conditions you need to follow. First, you need to know your and his purposes. This is necessary to manipulate the conversation to what you want. Second, you need to be known by many, so they understand that you're that kind of person. Third, don't lie when you're trying to annoy that person. Those are the three conditions you need to follow."

"I can understand the first and second reasons, but the third…"

Alea only shook her head and stepped back as if telling him that it was the only thing he needed to follow and he shouldn't ask anything about it.

"I will seek the answer by myself. Can I ask you something?"

"Sure."

"Why me? Why did you choose me at that time?"

"No particular reason. When I was alive, I hated others because they were always taking advantage of someone's life and using it for themselves for whatever reason and blamed them when something went wrong.

"In fact, I utterly detested someone who used the so-called justice to do his evil deed. I like chaos, but I am not a hypocrite. And I can see that you're the same. That's why…" She extended her hand and touched Theo's head with her finger. "Don't try to convince yourself that you don't mind doing this and that. Anyway, you will find what is correct for you. Just stick to it like me."

Theo fell silent and thought for a moment. He didn't understand why but there seemed to be something deep hidden beneath those words. Unfortunately, Theo couldn't see through it just yet.

"Alright. It's time for the last one." Alea took a step back. "This is a warning. For someone who will tread on this path, your words will become hard to believe by other people. If you wish to keep going, then you should prepare yourself for no one shall trust you anymore."

"Huh? That's a given. Without your help, I would have died in that place. At the very least, you can get almost anything with power and money, so I don't think I will be bored of this world soon. But I can't tell how I see the world in the future, so at that time, I may make another decision." Theo shrugged.

"That's it. I'm already satisfied." She smiled and raised her hand. "It's time for you to wake up."

"Wait, I still have so many questions."

"Just remember, this world always has a fool. However, sometimes, we don't hate that foolishness." She shook her head before making a genuine smile. When Theo was about to open his mouth, she snapped her finger. "See you later."

Theo's vision turned a complete white as his consciousness began to fade. At that time, he remembered he was still in the middle of the tournament.

He wondered what the result of his team was as his consciousness returned to his body as he gradually opened his eyes.
