God of Tricksters-Novel

Chapter 174 - Loots

"Anyway, I shouldn't be here anymore and let you enjoy this moment. Bye." Nart also left the battlefield, returning to his store.

The group was baffled by his action as they looked into each other's eyes.

Alea turned around and looked at Theo with a weird expression. "I didn't expect you to go to my grandfather's store."

Theo shrugged and lifted the two new spears he used in this battle.

Alea understood it and decided to take three cards out of her backpack. "By the way, these three are the cards dropped by the mammoth."

Theo and the others looked at them and found one skill and two material cards.

Skill: Jade Head (C)

Effect: Covering your head with strong energy capable of destroying a giant cliff.

When they saw the first card, they were confused about the description. However, Phyrill asked before they had any opinion. "Can I get this card?"

Everyone raised their head and stared at him in confusion.

Phyrill gently stroked his cheek while saying with an embarrassed tone. "I am sure that you already know my Lightning Step… If I combine both this card and my Lightning Step, I think I can create enough momentum to bring down monsters or people."

They remembered when Phyrill knocked the mammoth off together with Laust. Realizing that it might go in the way he described it, the team exchanged looks before their faces ultimately turned to Theo.

Theo stared back with a weird expression. "That's everyone's choice. If you don't have the problem, then so be it."

"I can buy it from the team as well if you don't mind." Phyrill smiled.

After contemplating for a minute, Alea decided to hand the card to Phyrill since no one chose to move their hands. On the other hand, Theo was more focused on the Material Cards instead.

Hardrock Ivory (C)

The hardest part of Hardrock Mammoth. It can pierce metal and shatter anything.

Hardrock Skin (D)

Its endurance is extremely high and the hardness is second to Hardrock Ivory. A good material for armor because it has elasticity.

"Hmm…" Theo narrowed his eyes and asked, "How about we sell these two?"

"You don't want it, Theo?" Alea tilted her head, feeling that a decent armor or a C Rank weapon would be good for Theo.

Theo had thought for a moment and shook his head. "Unfortunately, a C Rank Weapon is still a bit too heavy for me, so I can't afford to have the armor from the mammoth's skin. It's gonna decrease my overall ability instead. As for the weapon… It's indeed tempting, but I will stick with my current spears for the time being because I just upgraded them and haven't gotten used to them yet and I'm sure there's another thing I need to consider before upgrading to C Rank Weapon, including money. Don't worry. I do think I will get one before the competition."

Hearing his answer, Alea and the others understood and asked each other whether they needed a weapon or armor, only to find them shaking their heads.

In the end, Alea decided to buy it for her grandfather and the money would be transferred to them after the assessment.

"That's how it is." Alea smiled and asked, "Do you want to ask something, Theo?

Theo shook his head and took another look at their expression before listening to a soldier saying, "We hope that all people who have killed a monster touch the monster they killed. We would like to clean up the area, including the blood smell, to make this place pleasant again."

"You heard them." Theo pointed at the soldier and Clone Theo suddenly walked to him, bringing at least thirty cards.

The group already forgot that they needed to clean up the battlefield by touching those monsters since they knew they needed to do it from the beginning. And Theo turned out to have finished his own task by using his clone.

Theo was happy with the cards since he could upgrade his Elemental Shield, but he found that his teammates stared at him with complicated expressions.

"What? I just use my time efficiently." Theo shrugged. "I don't have anything to say about this group other than the date of the next expedition, which is one month from now. We will probably meet occasionally to discuss their next plan."

Theo rose from the ground and looked at them. "If you don't have anything to say, I will go back right now since I'm too tired to do more than this."

"…" They were just speechless to see Theo able to finish this kind of work with his clone. Ellen even said. "I wonder if I should have a Clone Skill too…"

Theo shrugged.

The group agreed to clean up and rose from the ground. It might be due to him looking from above, Theo saw Phyrill taking a deep breath even though there was no point in doing it.

He looked at him and whispered. "Are you alright?"

Phyrill shook his head and smiled. "Nah, I'm fine. Just slightly tired since my body is a bit weak."

Theo remembered the rumor about Phyrill and nodded. "If you think you can't keep up, do tell me. I will adjust our schedule."

"It's fine. Thank you." Phyrill smiled and said, "We have a one-month rest anyway, so it's good enough for me."

"Okay." Theo nodded while putting this into his mind.

Theo then said his goodbye, leaving them to clean up their own mess. It wasn't like they were friends to the point he needed to wait for them until they finished, so Theo didn't hesitate to return to his home.

His brain and body were just too tired, while he knew that the students would soon recognize him a bit since many saw him contributing to the team. That was why he agreed to Nart's offers. It wouldn't be that much different with having ten or twenty people recognizing you in school.

There might be some problems since they might try to challenge him or anything, but he would just ignore them for the time being. He could even use the Eilric Family influence to handle the situation, so he thought it would probably be fine.

He just needed to proceed more carefully after this point. Hence, he wanted to return immediately.
