God of Tricksters

Chapter 579 - Mission

Theo was standing in the garden with all his gears. Even Ava was standing on top of Theo's shoulder as they prepared to leave.

Leonardo looked at him and gave a thumbs up. "Good enough. I guess you're having a picnic."

"What picnic…" Theo shook his head helplessly.

Leonardo smirked and remembered what happened two days ago when Theo visited the family office.

Since he came with him, the one handing him the mission was none other than the family head, Marzio.

"These are the missions." Marzio tapped his Skylink two times and projected a blue screen, showing a list of missions. "There are a total of two hundred missions for you. You can put the filter yourself… In fact, why don't you just search it yourself and see which one suits you the most."

"Oi, oi. Are you mistreating my grandson?" Leonardo jokingly complained.

"I'm not supposed to be handling his mission, you know." Marzio shook his head helplessly.

On the other hand, Theo had proceeded to find his mission.

"Hmm, a mission without a time period can just go away since I can pick it up whenever I want." Theo put the first filter and threw away a hundred missions at once.

After that, he thought for a moment and applied another filter. "I want something to increase my level since I have put down my spear for quite a while."

There were only thirty missions remaining with only two filters. Even Theo couldn't help but feel amazed because many gave him useless assignments.

He also made some filters on the monster's level, wanting to know how many people were trying to kill a level 400 monster.

To his surprise, there were only three left.

Mission: Kill a Dragonoid Chieftain with the Xai Group.

Mission: Conquering a Goblin Town with the Holy Knight Order.

Mission: Becoming an Advisor for a skirmish with the Dien Company.

"…" Theo fell silent when he saw these three missions. There was one thing that caught his attention the most. "Holy Knight Order?"

Even Leonardo couldn't help but raise his head. "Holy Knight Order? As in the Pope's Holy Knight Order?"

"I don't know…" Theo shrugged.

Marzio put down his work and opened the details of the mission, realizing it came from Enrica. "What is the saintess doing?"

"There seems to be a conquest mission for a small goblin town. They have sent two Supreme Rank Holy Knights and fifty Hero Rank Holy Knights. There are a total of three thousand goblins in the area and the majority of them are Hero Rank Monsters.

"It's going to be a small operation filled with elites, so they need a person who is skilled in both fighting and planning. The candidates are Theo and Lorenzo. There are potentially a few General Class Monsters, so it's gonna be a swift sweep every time until they clean them up."

"Oh? Is there something like that going on?" Leonardo raised his eyebrows. "If Theo doesn't go, then we need to send Lorenzo."

"Yeah. The town seems to be surrounded by multiple villages, making it even harder to penetrate."

"No wonder they want a sweep operation." Leonardo nodded in agreement.

"I will go." Theo raised his eyes, taking the job without hesitation.

"Eh?" Leonardo furrowed his eyebrows. "Are you sure? Unlike Lorenzo, your strength is quite limited. I mean, in a sweep operation, Lorenzo's space ability is very good because they can flee if something happens."

"Yeah, I know. However, this mission must be written by someone else." Theo sighed.

"Someone else? Not Enrica?"

Theo nodded. "It must be Agata. After that visit, she knows I always rush to get some levels. That's why the mission is a conquest instead of a single kill."

"Oh?" Leonardo became interested in this mission and nodded. "If that's what you think, then I have nothing to say."

"Thanks." Theo nodded. "Well, the mission is tempting since I want to get some levels in a short time, so this operation suits me."

"Good." Leonardo turned to Marzio. "I guess that finalizes the mission."

"Yeah. I will be contacting the church about this mission. The rest of the information will be given to you by their knights. For now, you can regroup with them on the other side a few days later."

"Understood."

"Okay. That's all. I will contact you if something changes."

…

Remembering the scene, Leonardo couldn't help but tease him. "Picnic with your little lover, huh. Enjoy your youth, young man!"

"It's nothing like that." Theo shook his head helplessly. "I have no spare time to deal with something like this."

"Right." Leonardo chuckled and slipped away, not believing his words.

Looking at him, Theo simply sighed and went to his car, so his driver could bring him to the gate.

As soon as he entered the other side, he found more extravagant scenery than Thersland's. The city was called Star Castle because the city was built like that of a star.

Each joint had its own theme: accommodation, trade, military, entertainment, and other facilities.

Theo looked around with a poker face, admiring the road that stretched far to the horizon. He couldn't even see the end of it, which was supposed to be the gate.

Suddenly, a female's voice echoed in his ears.

"Theo, here!"

The voice was so familiar that he could guess whose voice it was without even looking at her. As he expected, the moment he turned around, he found two women standing next to each other.

The first one was a long red-haired female wearing sunglasses. She carried no weapon because it wasn't her job.

Seeing that proactive attitude, Theo was sure of her identity. It was none other than the one who came up with the mission, Agata Mota.

Next to her was a nun wearing a black nun outfit. She wore her usual blindfold but was still conscious of what happened to her surroundings.

She had no emotion when she found Theo and simply nodded her head to greet him.

Theo shrugged and used his Blink to appear before them. "Yeah, I'm here."
