God of Tricksters Chapter 1217 Illusion Power

Chapter 1217 Illusion Power
"It's excellent. It's the first time I've tasted a meal that delicious." Theo nodded with a smile.
"You have improved again." Jeff smiled, enjoying the meal.
"That's great." Coline smiled back and turned to Theo. "I am Coline Laffitte. It's my honor to cook a meal for the famous Joker."
"I'm not that famous." Theo chuckled while waving his hand.
"You're already an International Celebrity, you know that." Coline chuckled and glanced at Jeff. "Still, this is the first time Jeff actually brought another person other than Monica here."
"Does that bother you?" Jeff scratched the back of his head, wanting to apologize.
However, Coline shook her head. "Nah, it's fine. How is Monica?"
"She's good. She doesn't have much work to do, considering no one visits me anymore."
"No one visits you anymore? Ah!" Coline widened her eyes, understanding his intention. "So…"
"I'm working for him right now," Jeff confirmed without hesitation.
"Ah!" Coline nodded politely to Theo. "Sorry, I don't know that you're an even bigger person than I thought…"
"Is there something wrong?" Theo tilted his head in confusion.
"Nope. It's just… Jeff is a very stubborn man that pursues ideals. He fought against anyone that wanted to force him. They even threatened him with Monica."
"Hmm?" Theo was still confused, but he noticed that the relationship between Jeff and Coline was closer than he originally thought. "Now that I think about it, you two know each other, right?"
"Yes. We're best friends… To be exact, I was Monica's best friend when she stayed in France for a few years. I often invited both of them here, so we became best friends. If Jeff works for you, you should know Monica, right?"
"Yeah. It should be his sister."
"Yep. Even though they lived in the US, I still invited them to come from time to time."
"I see. No wonder Jeff looked like he has been here so many times to even know the purpose and the layout of the house." Theo nodded in understanding.
"Hehe." Coline chuckled and finally asked the main question… At least for her. "So, how is the meal?"
Theo thought she was going to ask for his purpose, but it seemed Coline was more focused on the meal's taste.
"I think I can…" Jeff paused for a moment before taking out his brush and painting a shrimp jumping. Of course, Jeff's painting skill was top-notch, but he was lacking in personalization because he didn't have time to recreate the entire feeling in a few seconds. "Something like this…"
"I see. I'm glad that you can have a clear picture about it." Coline smiled.
"Actually, Coline… The reason why I'm here with him is because I want to ask you to work for him too." Jeff explained with a serious expression.
"Oh? This is the first time you asked something this important, Jeff." Coline's expression turned serious as well.
"He has what you want because that's also the reason why I follow him."
"Hmm? So, he is an illusionist… Still, what I want is something more…"
"I know. That's why…" Jeff turned to Theo and said, "Can you show the entire image in your head? The more detailed it is, the better."
"That's easy, I guess. I've been working on this stuff with Ergene." Theo agreed without hesitation.
"For real? I'm envious."
"Ahaha." Theo chuckled and looked at Coline. "So, do you want to see the image I saw?"
"Yes." Coline nodded furiously. She wanted to see whether the person that Jeff recommended was as good as he claimed to be.
But it turned out, both Jeff and Coline had underestimated Theo.
The moment Theo snapped his finger, both of them suddenly felt the heat of the sun brushing their skin.
"Eh?" Jeff widened his eyes in shock while Coline raised her head as if the sun in the sky blinded her. "The heat… The sunlight… We're indoor…"
When she looked at the sky, she saw a vast blue sky with white clouds scattered around. She lowered her head and saw the scene change.
This time, she was on the beach of a small deserted island. She looked around and saw the endless sea and a few palm trees that separated this side and the other side of this island.
Even the smell was completely replicated as she could feel the slightly burnt smell. The gentle wind brushed over her skin.
Her vision then gradually turned to the ocean, where she saw a giant shrimp leaping out of the water, splashing water on her body.
This was completely unbelievable because the scene was recreated perfectly for all senses. In other words, Theo managed to completely fool her sense into thinking she entered the other world that allowed her to see the image when he tasted the meal.
However, there was also another detail that she managed to pick on this illusion.
Some of the water droplets somehow hit her nose, making her pick up the slightly salty smell.
"This is…" Coline gasped and covered her mouth with her hand.
After seeing her expression, Theo snapped his finger again, retracting the illusion.
"Wow, wow, wow!" Jeff was the first to react as he slammed the table, looking at Theo intensely. "You could do that? For real? Why didn't you tell me about this? I could draw an entire realm for you to play! If you want a labyrinth, I could draw something confusing with a lot of details, allowing you to use your ability even more efficiently! It will surely take a lot of toll on your mind to create that illusion, right? If you use my drawing as a base, I can lessen the burden with my drawing."
"I was about to tell you about it, but you are still working on the project!"
"Ah right! The base!" Jeff nodded in understanding. "But still… That kind of illusion… Doesn't this mean we're closer to my dream?"
"That's right." Theo smiled. "I will fulfill my promise, Jeff."
"Thank you." Jeff smiled as he knew that his choice wasn't wrong.
"What? You can improve that illusion even further?" Coline, who listened to their conversation, gasped.
"Yeah. I don't know to what extent… But I think the moment I can fulfill Jeff's dream, I can somehow allow you to use that power even when I'm not there." Theo confirmed calmly.
"!!!" Coline widened her eyes as she immediately grabbed Theo's hands and asked, "Do you still need a chef in your home? I can cook rice with… I mean, I can cook good food. I can warm your b—Ahem, I can warm cold food and make it like new."
"What the heck? We're talking about illusion and food here, why do you sound like a horny b—" Jeff stopped because Coline stared at him with intoxicated eyes.
"Don't you know what I felt from the illusion, Jeff? I realized that my food had a tad more salt than what I should use! In other words, if I have this power, I can perfect my cooking!" Coline was truly obsessed with cooking to the point that she smiled excitedly, ignoring all common senses.
