God of Tricksters

Chapter 130 - Expedition Preparation

After Radvils went off the stage, all fifty groups began their discussion, wondering how they should finish these assignments.

Alea turned around and asked, "Anyone has an opinion regarding the schedule?"

"Fifteen days a month, huh." Phyrill looked down, thinking how he should utilize the time.

"I think we should leave first." Sihan stopped them since he didn't want others to bother them or know more about Theo.

The group furrowed their eyebrows and nodded their heads.

"Let's go to a restaurant outside then. We don't have any class today, so it's good." Alea offered a solution.

Theo thought for a moment and asked, "I think it's better to stay in the school."

Phyrill and the others actually agreed with Alea's suggestion, so they were surprised Theo wanted otherwise.

"If you want to talk about something, we can use the third building's private room. Instead of training, we can just talk." Theo tried to convince them.

Their eyes began to waver as they thought it was also a good solution.

Since Theo was a better planner than Alea, they decided to follow Theo's demand.

Before leaving, Phyrill asked, "Why do you want to stay in the school?"

Theo's answer came in the form of another question. "Why do you want to go outside the school?"

"Ehm? It's private. Well, I don't know." Phyrill found himself unable to answer his question. At first, he wanted to answer that school made him sick, but that was not exactly the right answer.

Ellen shrugged and walked first. "If you don't want to go, then I will go there first."

The group exchanged looks and followed her, wondering what Theo was thinking. Not long after, they arrived inside the building as Ellen talked about renting the private room.

After getting the permission, Ellen invited them inside, where they only had one room to talk. After all, this wasn't a cafe where they could simply ask for a room.

Ellen took the seat together and pulled Theo to the couch since he needed to relax if he wanted to think of something good. The other side was Phyrill, while Laust, Sihan, and Alea stood in the opposite direction.

"So, what do you think about this assignment?" Ellen asked.

"How about going right away? With our current information, we can take one down almost immediately. If we continue at our pace, we should be killing one every month without a problem. Even if there are no more monsters, we can utilize our family influence to get the information." Alea answered. "We can start tomorrow."

"I don't think we should do it like that. How about we combine the two months together? We will start from mid-April and ask for fifteen days and another fifteen days from May 1st." Phyrill offered another solution.

Sihan and Laust looked away since they would only follow what the group decided. Only Ellen and Theo had yet to convey their opinion.

Since there was something he wanted to ask Ellen, he decided to show them his thoughts. "Let's put both answers together."

"You what?" Phyrill and Alea opened their mouths in surprise as Theo's answer just surpassed their imagination again. Even Laust and Sihan tried to see what he was planning.

"We will go to the other side tomorrow and rest for a month before doing another expedition that will last for one month." Theo smiled.

"Theo, we are here not to play, you know." Alea shook her head, trying to convince him that both answers had their own benefits. It was impossible to use both ways.

"I am not sure myself since I have never gone on any expedition that requires me to stay for a long time. Unlike the training camp, we will be in constant danger after all." Theo then turned to Ellen, who looked back with a questioning look.

Theo asked, "What are the things we need to do in a situation like this?"

Ellen contemplated for a minute before saying, "I see. I will answer your question first."

Before giving any explanation, Ellen took out her Skylink and opened the file Radvils sent to them. It was information about the monsters.

After that, she opened the map on the table screen so everyone could see it. She marked the Art Beats Castle and another location that she believed where the monster lived.

"Take a look at this distance; I just grabbed one random monster from the information. You can see there is a huge distance between them. If I need to roughly calculate the distance, we will need around three days to reach there by foot. Of course, with our current level.

"Theo doesn't want to waste time on traveling, so he wants to join the opportunity together, extending it to a month like Phyrill suggested. However, if you take another look at this map, there are hills, cliffs, mountains, and such.

"We need to scout this area first before doing something to see whether our group can cross it or not. We can't bring any vehicles after all, meaning there won't be any drones, choppers, and such that would take us there.

"That's why Theo takes Alea's suggestion as well. It's all to assess everything. As you all know, the problem with an expedition like this will be our number due to the path and resources. I mean, I always help in this matter, so I know we need to check our water and food supply.

"Water will be a big problem, so we need to know where we can gather enough water supply. Then, we need to see how much all you guys eat to ensure no one fights while feeling hungry and so on. Theo wants to understand everything before having a long expedition.

"Of course, since the first is important, we will be challenging one Hero Rank Monster during the first one while trying to adjust our coordination. That's my opinion." She smiled and turned to Theo. "How was it? Did I miss something?"

"No, you explained more than I imagined. I didn't have any experiences, so I couldn't say much." Theo shook his head helplessly before thanking Ellen.

Ellen simply smiled and gave him a thumbs up. "Do ask me if you want to know anything. I can tell you everything other than my three sizes and the color of my underwear. If you want to know Alea's, I can tell you too…"

"Wait, what?!" Alea widened her eyes after getting dragged into Ellen's lewd joke.
