God of Tricksters

Chapter 1690 Suspicion

"Hmm?" She looked at Theo with a confused expression before smiling. "Hello. Since you're registering here, that means you're a teacher too?"

She was polite and had a bright smile, making it look like she had no harm to the people. But if people knew she was actually a monster instead of a normal person. This fact alone made one wonder what she was planning to do here.

At the same time, he couldn't show any hostility before knowing the extent of the infiltration.

He nodded with a calm expression. "Yes, I'm a teacher too. Nice to meet you."

"My name is Ruby. It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr..." She paused for a moment, waiting for Theo to give his name.

Of course, Theo had changed his information from the system so that he didn't lie to anyone whenever he said his other name.

At the same time, he heard another voice from the office as the person was handing out his name tag.

"This is your name tag, Mr. Tjahaja. And this is your key to your dorm for one month. You'll be teaching in Elemental Class. The class will be split into a few groups, and there will be teachers who shall lead the class alongside you. The rest will be explained before the classes. You can be assured that we won't restrict you in your curriculum. Just teach the students anything you see fit."

"Got it." Theo nodded and took his tag and key. While showing his name tag, he turned to Ruby, saying, "Ary. It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Ruby. Are you teaching in Elemental Class too?"

"Ah, I'm lucky to find someone who teaches similar stuff." She smiled. Before she could continue, her tag and key had come out as well.

"This is your key and tag, Miss Henessy. You'll be teaching in the same class as Mr. Tjahaja. The rest will be explained before the class."

"Thank you." She nodded with a smile. Before turning to Theo, she asked one question. "By the way, how many students do I have to teach?"

"As you've been informed, there are multiple classes depending on their specialization. And you are in Elemental Class, which is attended by students who want to learn more about elements and control. In this class, there are a total of two hundred students divided into ten teachers."

"So, each teacher has twenty students." She nodded with a serious expression.

"That's basically the case. Though, the rest will be briefed one hour before class."

"I understand. Thank you." She politely nodded. Twenty students didn't seem to be that much, so she should be able to handle all these people.

"Alright. Have a good day."

"Thanks." Ruby nodded and stepped back, finally focusing back on Theo.

"It seems that we'll be in the same class. Although I don't know how they're going to split it, it seems we'll be meeting each other often from now on, Mr. Ary." Ruby smiled.

"Indeed. It seems we're staying in the same place, just on a different floor. Do you want to go together?" Theo asked.

"I'd love to." She nodded.

Theo wanted to investigate the matter right now, but it was clear that he had to get her trust first.

"So, what element are you teaching in this event, Mr. Ary?"

'Oh? This monster is not holding back.' Theo didn't expect the monster to be this bold. But considering they were infiltrating this place, he was sure that they were trying to gather information. He just didn't know what kind of information they sought.

"I'll be teaching Fire Element like my affinity."

"Is that so? I'll be teaching Ice Element and probably Water Element too."

"Oh, our element seems to be the exact opposite." Theo chuckled. Normally, what people thought after meeting a guy like him would be his ethnicity, especially after how the person from the office had a hard time pronouncing his name.

It was clear that Theo was someone from another country, not close to this place. So, they would be asking where he came from first instead of talking about their element.

Of course, other people wouldn't think too much about it if they weren't suspecting monster infiltration.

But since the situation had reached this point, Theo played along.

"Is that so? Even though our elements are the opposite, I do hope that we can get along." Ruby smiled.

"We'll be teaching in the same class, so I believe we'll be meeting each other every now and then." Theo nodded before finding two huge towers.

These two towers were former hotels. Because of the apocalypse, it had been abandoned.

Luckily, they weren't outside the border, so the monsters didn't destroy the hotel. It took a series of inspections, but everything was confirmed to be safe.

Hence, this would be a perfect place for them to hold this event.

As soon as they reached the first tower, a security guard approached them with a smile. "Hello. May I check your identity?"

Theo and Ruby nodded, handing their tags.

The security guard checked their names and appearance before leading them inside. "Please come in."

They followed the security guard inside. Since this wasn't a hotel anymore and the owner seemed to have died after the apocalypse, there was no receptionist to take care of their problems anymore.

However, all the interiors seemed to be working perfectly.

The guard opened the elevator for them and handed the card back. "If you have anything you need, please call the office. There aren't any staff in this place since all of them are busy preparing the classes."

"I see. It seems that you are a bit understaffed." Theo made a casual remark, but it certainly caused trouble for the security guard.

"I'm not sure about it since I'm just a guard here." He didn't show it, but Theo could see the slight change in his expression. He looked anxious.

Fortunately, he had checked his status and it gave him the normal system, revealing all information from name to attribute points. So, he was a human.

Theo nodded and entered the elevator together with Ruby.
