God of Tricksters-Novel

Chapter 1500 Another Impostor

England.

"Prince Karl, we have received information regarding the movement in Czech. It seems that the Lexon Group is planning to control the union with the help of the Empress."

Prince Karl, who had been managing the royal family and working together with the prime minister to handle the government, was furious.

He slammed the table and shouted in anger. "Make sure the union doesn't happen, even if you have to kill her daughter!"

"Y-yes!"

"Kh." Prince Karl pinched the bridge of his nose, getting overwhelmed by the trouble that kept coming to him. "We have been in a bad situation after the apocalypse, and now we have to deal with this situation. Flora Wegener and the Griffith Family have taken control of the union, so if there's another influence standing there other than us, we won't be able to handle the union anymore. We need someone to help us, but we don't have anything to pay for their support."

Prince Karl narrowed his eyes, contemplating.

Suddenly, another person came to him and reported in a rush. "Prince. We have an emergency!"

"Can't you see I'm busy right now?" Prince Karl roared.

"But… but the person you're looking for previously has come!"

"The person I've been looking for previously?"

"There is someone who claims to be able to upgrade someone's skill."

"!!!" Prince Karl widened his eyes in shock. He had been searching for that kind of person this whole time but to no avail. The purpose was to get him to get Theo to his side.

However, the apocalypse had happened and they couldn't use their skills anymore. And Theo was already chased away as well. The search was supposed to be irrelevant now, but the prince actually thought it another way.

Although they couldn't see their status anymore, including their skills, there was a chance that this person was still able to see those skills and upgrade them. In other words, he might be a person that could still strengthen someone else's strength.

If that were the case, this person would be the only person to be able to get stronger. Hence, he immediately dropped everything and stood up. "Where's that person? Lead me to him and bring the best snack and tea you have!"

"Y-yes! This way, please!"

It didn't take five minutes before the two guys met.

The prince had brown curly hair and a gallant body. His gaze was filled with pride, but when he met this person, his expression became extremely gentle.

Meanwhile, the one who claimed to be able to upgrade one's skill was actually a skinny young man. With a single glance, he looked like a beggar. But when he examined his body a bit more, he could see a circular bruise that covered both of his wrists, ankles, and neck as if he was chained down by someone. He looked so weak that he might fall down with a single push from him.

The guy lowered his head, but his body was continuously shaking as if he feared him.

The prince didn't believe him instantly. He sat down in front of this weak looking guy and asked, "So, you claim you can upgrade someone's skill? Why do you come to my place?"

"I… I heard that they were looking for people who could upgrade a person's skill. If… If you didn't need one anymore… then I… I will leave," the guy stuttered and his body kept trembling.

"Before you leave, I have to ask you something. Why do you choose to come to me now? There were multiple chances where you could go to me…"

"I… I… I'm not from here." The guy shook his head while hugging his own body, making his callous to be seen.

The prince narrowed his eyes and thought, 'It seems that someone has known his power and used him for themselves. And the only reason he could reach here was the apocalypse. He must have been teleported here due to that space distortion. That's why I couldn't find him this whole time since he was chained down.'

He thought for a moment and said, "Your power should be useless now, so I don't think I need you anymore. After all, we don't have the ability to open the system anymore."

"But… but my power…"

"Are you trying to imply that your power can still be used?"

"Y-yes."

Seeing the fear in this guy's eyes, the Prince thought for a moment before stating, "If you can prove to me that you're useful. I'll protect you and make sure that you don't undergo that kind of torture anymore. I'll treat you as an honored guest of the royal family and give you the best treatment. In other words, I'll change your life completely if you can show me your worth."

"Y-yes." The guy hesitated for a moment and said, "That's… I better show it to you personally. Still, don't… don't hit me if I fail because the possibility…"

'So, there is a chance for it to be upgraded. But you also need Skill Cards even though the monsters don't drop any more Skill Cards. No, wait, if I take this from another perspective. The fact that the resources are limited, I can increase the price exponentially.' The prince thought before a smile appeared on his face. "Can you upgrade all ranks?"

"Y-yes."

"Good. Is there a difference in success rate depending on the ranks? For example, the B Rank Skill is harder to upgrade compared to F Rank Skill."

"There is no difference."

"Good. I'll test your ability first. Still, F to E Rank won't change that much. Then, how about a C Rank Skill? I want you to upgrade a C Rank Skill to a B Rank Skill. How many Skill Cards do you need?"

"I… my eyes can see the requirement and my power can upgrade it."

"So, you have to see it yourself first? Then, how about my power?"

"You have three C Rank Skills… I don't know which skill you want to upgrade."

"!!!" Prince Karl widened his eyes in shock because what the guy said was correct. He truly had the ability to see his skills, allowing him to see the requirement. 'He is a real deal.'

"Before that, I want to test your ability with multiple people. How many people do you need and how many Skill Cards do you need? For example, how about my Govern Skill?"

"You need ten B Rank Skills and thirty C Rank Skills… As for the people, three, no four…"

"I see. One in four people and it seems that a person can only be upgraded once." The prince nodded and stood up. "I'll prepare everything you need immediately so that we know the result. Do you have any other requirements?"

"No." ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

"Alright then." The prince walked away, but before he left, he remembered something and asked, "What's your name?"

"My… My name is Richard, Richard Coulson." The guy tried his best to make a smile.

"Alright. Wait here. I'm going to return as soon as possible."

As soon as Prince Karl left, the guy smiled evilly.
