God of Tricksters Chapter 609 – Reward

Chapter 609 - Reward

"!!!" Agata widened her eyes when she heard a female voice. She thought there was another woman in the house, but she dropped her jaw the moment she saw Ava on Theo's shoulder.
"Nice to meet you." Ava smiled. "Since you have agreed to Theo's offers, then there's no need for me to hide this."
"A—A—!" Agata couldn't speak due to her shock. She never thought she would hear Ava speaking in human language.
Saying something in her own language was already incredible, but Ava took it one step further.
Seeing Agata's reaction, Ava couldn't help but chuckle. "Hehe, she's surprised. I guess it's too shocking for me to speak your language. Well, it's not your mother tongue, but you should be able to understand me, right? There should be a translation function in your Skylink."
"Y-yeah, but…" Agata pointed at Ava with her eyes kept glancing back and forth between her and Theo.
Theo smiled and nodded. "Yeah. This is one of the most important pieces of information. Ava is not an Elite Class Monster. She is a General Class Monster. Her mother is a King Class Monster.
"Ava happens to meet me in the past. And now, I'm taking care of her journey while she helps me fight."
Ava smiled and added, "Though, I won't speak anything when other people are nearby. Do pay that in mind."
"I have no words to say." Agata facepalmed and shook her head helplessly.
"Anyway, do you want to enter the house first for a quick talk? I am going to reveal what you will get for becoming my assistant." Theo pointed at his house.
After some considerations and Ava's revelation, Agata nodded like a robot.
"Great." Theo led her to the living room, where they could comfortably talk about the reward.
Agata was still shocked because of Ava. She muttered inwardly, 'Ava is a General Class Monster? Even getting a Normal Class Monster to obey you is already hard, let alone the Elite Class Monster. They have too much pride to begin with.
'And to think Ava is a General Class Monster? In the entire world, there are less than twenty records of someone having a General Class Monster. This means Theo is now one of them.
'If the world knows about this information, they will be shocked. After all, there are so many benefits one can have by simply getting support from a General Class Monster.
'In the case of Ava, her enhanced hearing is a perfect example of a scouting device. Theo wouldn't have the need to worry about ambushes. In fact, he can even sneak attack those ambushers.
'There are many things he can do by simply having Ava by his side. Seeing how good their relationship is, I am afraid Ava would voluntarily do a job without knowing the reason.'
At this point, Agata finally realized why he never revealed Ava this whole time.
If Leonardo knew Ava's real identity, it would be a huge mess. Theo might not be able to leave the War God Family because of this.
Hence, Theo decided to avoid anyone from knowing.
On the other hand, Agata was bound by the contract and was fundamentally different from the others. To achieve the highest performance, Theo didn't mind revealing this information.
She felt a bit overwhelmed and happy at the same time. After all, Theo wouldn't reveal this truth with just the contract alone. He needed to have a certain degree of trust.
Theo returned with a tea in his hand as he placed it in front of Agata. "Here you go."
After that, he sat down and took out his Skylink before talking to her. He contacted one number that shocked Agata.
"Do you need my help?"
"Actually, I want to have another trade with you, Sir Leonardo."
"!!!" Agata widened her eyes, never expecting Theo to call Leonardo when they discussed the reward.
Theo ignored her and continued, "I want to trade my reward from the previous incident."
"Oh, what do you want?"
"I want you to train Agata together with me."
"Agata? As in Agata Mota? That beautiful lass?"
"Yes. How many months can I get from the previous incident?"
"Before that, I want to ask two questions."
"Sure."
"Are you sure about giving her this reward? It's quite a hefty reward, you know." Leonardo's voice filled with worries. "You're not going to say you're in love, right?"
"Not really. She has agreed to be my assistant, so I need to reward her properly." Theo sighed.
"Then my second question, how long do you want me to train her?"
"Around the same time as me? So for one year and three months?"
"Oi, oi. It will cost you so much, you know."
"It's fine. I will trade the information if necessary. I am not planning to slow down my progress, so I need my assistant to be strong and can keep up with me. I can't afford to have her lagging behind, especially with her workload." Theo explained.
"Okay. You have a total of nine devices in your possession… With the addition of the previous incident, I will take three of those. However, I will only provide her with everything related to power, not tactics and stuff."
"That's enough. Five Aspects and other stuff are enough." Theo agreed without hesitation.
"Alright. I will take the deal. She needs to stay in the mansion to make it efficient though."
"She has agreed to it. Don't worry."
"Good. I am a bit busy right now, so I will talk with you later after I return."
"Thank you." Theo then hung up and raised his head. "That's basically the reward. I have told you that you won't regret this deal."
Agata couldn't believe what he had promised her. Becoming Leonardo's student was priceless, especially for the people who were not from the War God Family.
After all, Leonardo never taught someone outside the family. She remembered back when the pope taught her because she was with Enrica at that time. All her family members, including the Mythical Rank Experts, congratulated her. They were basically saying she was extremely fortunate.
And it was only for one occasion. Theo promised her one year and three months. This was a chance that she couldn't get twice in a lifetime.
She couldn't help but say, "You…"
Theo stopped her and said, "You told me you don't want to be an accessory that makes a man shine. So, this is your reward… I will give you the strength you need to pursue your goal. However, it will be time-consuming because you need to be my assistant… The question is… Are you ready to take the job?"
