God of Tricksters

Chapter 83 – Play Friends



Chapter 83 - Play Friends

"Get lost, then." He let out a long sigh while scratching the back of his head. "Do you realize that your question is too cringe? Are you implying that the power of friendship or love will overcome anything in this cruel world? No. It's your power."

"Take those words back!" The guy gritted his teeth and remembered how he got saved by his teammate during the training. "You don't know anything about people! Our friends will help us when the time is needed. Some even sacrifice their lives."

Radvils chuckled and replied. "I don't mean to be rude against the deceased, but who? Those dying people can participate in Grand Gaia? How about you resurrect one of them here? I wait. No matter how weak you are compared to your friend or rival, you will automatically become stronger once your rival is dead. Friends help us? Don't make me laugh. Everything is give and take. If you want to play friends, how about you quit this school?"

The guy shook his head. "You're wrong. If you truly believed it, why did you choose our school instead of going to create a perfect team with the ace from each school!"

"That's where you're wrong. They can become an ace because of their background. That's all. The true ace is someone who has experienced up and down in their lives and comes out victorious. Your starting point is simply different. Only when you reach a far higher level will you find these aces. And now, I'm giving you the chance to become one of these aces. If you desire to be one, then come back on Sunday.

"And two more additional rules since you like your teammates too much. The first rule will be the one choosing your next teammate will be the last person to join your team. In other words, if person A asks person B to become his teammate, person B has the right to choose the next member, which is person C. After that, person C will get the right. This will continue until you get all the members. You like your teammate and can't abandon them, right? I will let you trust them with everything. I'm a good person, you know."

On the surface, Radvils truly considered the person's belief and took it seriously, but for those who were more skeptical about this, they could only think the opposite. Radvils arranged this rule out of spite.

If the last person they chose didn't have the desire to win or continue, they would simply choose trash in the next round. The cycle would continue before their choice ended up ruining the entire team. At the same time, this would also show that person's judgment level.

Seeing some had realized the real meaning of his rule, Radvils continued, "I almost forgot to tell you something. No one is allowed to say something or contact the one who has the right. We will monitor your gesture through the camera. Those who are found out will be disqualified along with their teammates."

Thump.

That statement just reinforced the fear in their hearts since they wouldn't be able to make a good group once they chose the wrong person.

"Additional rule number two. Since information will be spread everywhere, the matchmaking will be revealed half an hour before your match and the record of their fight. But, of course, there is nothing that can be shown in the first round.

"You can use those thirty minutes to research your opponents as well as your battle plan. After all, only fools are coming to the battlefield without any preparation at all. And with the current technology, you will surely get one or two pieces of information on the Internet. Then, I will excuse myself."

After giving that long explanation, he finally stepped down and walked off the stage.

Surprisingly, the principal had been waiting for him, crossing his arms.

"You are contradicting yourself. You say that you don't want anyone to say they have bad luck, but all your actions and training are based on luck. Whether it's the people chosen in their respective group or their match up… Everything relies on luck."

Radvils made a big smirk as he halted his steps, saying, "As expected of Mr. Principal, you are quite observant. I just don't want to see them relying on it. In Grand Gaia, we don't have the right to choose our opponent, so luck will be playing its might there. No matter what kind of method I need to use, I will bring a team that is capable of fighting against international students. That's all."

Without waiting for his response, Radvils left since he didn't want to get bothered anymore.

Because their schedule seemed to be only listening to Radvils today, many students decided to call it quits and had a fun time since last month's training was too harsh.

Alea tried to look around to find Theo, thinking, 'I should ask him tomorrow to talk about our plan for this training and finalize our current setup. But…'

Unfortunately for her, she couldn't find Theo at all. At first, she thought about coming over to say her thoughts, only to abandon the idea right away since Theo didn't like exposure. Then, she tried to send a message to Theo, but other than giving his skills, she never got his number, so it was impossible to talk to him.

She facepalmed and felt helpless. It turned out she forgot to do something that important. Because of the constant living in the other world where they couldn't even contact each other with Skylink, it somehow directed the importance of contact information to another thing.

Dejected, Alea looked down before looking at her right, finding her best friend coming to her.

"Alea! How are you doing? Who is your partner? You don't bully him or her, right?"

"I don't bully him."

"So, it's a boy."

"What is his name? What grade? As expected, you must have chosen a third-year."

"No, no. He is not a third-year."

"Ho? A junior, huh."

"I won't say anything about him. Besides, you are usually pretty chill; why have you become like this today?"

"Haha, I'm just curious because I have heard from Uncle that your current teammate is among the best crop. He didn't tell me anything though."

"Anyway, we will be rivals from now on. Don't expect me to tell you everything." She looked away.

"Haha, right… You just want to groom the boy as your—"

Alea covered her mouth with her hand and glared at her. "Don't say it."

"I see. To have Alea give this kind of reaction… He is interesting." She smiled and waved her hand. "I'm going to meet up with my teammate then. See you later."
