God of Tricksters

1230 Past Acquittances

"…" Felix was speechless because there was no way Theo could have a decent life here. It was too cramped. He would be under a lot of stress when living here, let alone when he was bullied by the people around him.

"You're so happy when introducing this place." Theo chuckled.

"Of course. Theodore Griffith is my idol and will always be. There are many things that I can learn from him. He's really the definition from zero to hero." Aisha smiled, not realizing that the person she was talking about this whole time was right before her.

"So, what do you do for a living? Since Theodore Griffith is your idol, are you hunting on the other side?"

"I do that sometimes, but I'm focusing on my studies in Medical School. I believe that I should focus on medicine to make use of my power."

"Is that so? You're so good." Theo nodded, remembering the girl had the blessing of Hippocrates.

"I'm nothing compared to my idol." Aisha chuckled. "How many days are you visiting the country?"

"It won't be too long. Only three days."

"Three days. Good. There are many places you can visit here, you know."

"Yeah, I know." Theo nodded. "I heard that Theodore Griffith's school was near this place."

"I can't say it's quite near, but it's around fifteen minutes away if you walk from here."

"What happened to the school after he left?"

"The school obviously got a lot of attention after his performance due to his reputation. There was a lot of pressure on the school. Unfortunately, it seemed that the school had failed to produce the second Theodore Griffith.

"No, should I say… Theodore Griffith was a godsend opportunity for the school? Even in the last previous Grand Gaia Competition, our team didn't manage to attain the key to the main competition.

"If Theodore Griffith led the team once again, we could defeat Russia, last year's runner-up, or even last year's winner, China. People blamed the participants for not achieving the same feat." She let out a long sigh, disappointed.

"Ahaha, you might have overestimated him."

"I'm sorry, but I need to deny you there. There are a lot of people who think I'm overestimating him, but in fact, I'm not. He's truly a unique person.' She glared at Theo for a second before apologizing for her rude remark.

Of course, Theo also apologized for insulting 'himself.'

"Anyway, it's truly a pleasure to meet you. Thank you for showing us all this." Theo smiled. "Let me repay you with the money you used to enter this facility."

"No, no, it's fine. I'm working part-time in the hospital, so I'm not bothered with money." Aisha politely refused Theo's offer and took a step back.

"Okay then, thank you so much." Theo smiled.

"You're welcome. Do you want to visit his school now? I can give you directions, but I'm afraid I can't show you around."

"Oh? Don't worry. I know the general location." Theo nodded.

"I see. That's good then."

They then left the building as they were going to continue their day.

However, the moment they came out of the building, they saw an unconscious man leaning on the wall.

His right hand was severed, and the blood was still dripping, showing that the wound was new.

"…" Theo's eyebrows twitched as he never expected to be at a crime scene all of a sudden.

Aisha hurriedly checked the man's condition and clapped her hand. A green light then started to shine around her hands as the energy from it gradually flowed to the man's hand.

To Theo and Felix's surprise, the lower arm was slowly created out of nothing as if the arm grew back.

"This is…" Felix sucked a cold breath. Limb regeneration was a rare ability. Only a few people in the world could use something like this. Even the pope needed the severed limb to repair the damage.

But it seemed Aisha's ability was more unique than they originally thought.

"Do you know him?" Theo asked with a gentle tone.

"No."

"So, you still help him? I mean, this is a dark alley, you know. He might not be a good person either."

"I am a doctor. I'll help people who need me…" Aisha gave a perfect answer but changed her attitude right after. "Well, that was what I would say in front of the camera. But this time, I simply want him to recover because I don't want him to taint the place of my idol."

"…" Theo fell silent for a moment and asked another question. "I see. So, you can regrow someone's limb…"

"Yes. But it will take a long time to connect the nerve that transmits the Magic Power though… In other words, even if he has his limb back, he won't be able to channel any Magic Power for at least one and a half years."

"That's a price that nobody cares, you know." Theo smiled. If she actually healed the Wind Emperor by amputating his feet first, the Wind Emperor might be able to fully recover within a few years. Even if the Wind Emperor was too strong, the recovery would probably take only one to two decades.

"Well, I rarely showed this power. So, I hope that you don't tell anyone else about this."

"Don't worry. My lips are tight." Theo smiled.

"Thanks." She nodded.

"Instead of that, why don't you work for me? I can offer a high salary and an opportunity that you can't meet anywhere else."

"I'm thankful for the offer, but I'm not interested."

"I see. Such a shame." Theo nodded as his expression became cold.

"…" Aisha's heart skipped a beat as she never expected that Theo would become like this after she rejected his offer.

But before the misunderstanding became even deeper, Theo raised his head and called, "Felix."

"I believe there are around thirty people." Felix looked around as they found people coming into this dark alley before taking out their weapons.

"!!!" Aisha realized she had misunderstood Theo's action and hurriedly rose from the ground, raising both fists as if she was prepared to fight.

"Hmm? To think we can find Aisha Gata here." One of them recognized Aisha's face and smirked excitedly.

"The boss wants her alive because her ability is useful. We will kill that man Azoth and capture her. As for those two foreigners, they're unlucky to meet us here."
