When they reached home, all Theo did was throw a party for Ava since only because of her support could he achieve all these.
Though, all Ava wanted was food.
Hence, He cooked for her until she was satisfied. And since they returned at night, Theo quickly went to sleep after filling his hunger and washing his body.
The next day, Theo wanted to sell everything from his mission. However, before leaving his room, he suddenly thought about something.
He turned back and looked at Ava, who was lying down on the couch, staring at the news. It was hilarious to see a rabbit watching the news, but considering Ava understood it perfectly, he thought it was fine.
Still, he had something to ask her. "Ava, do you mind helping me?"
"Kyu?!" She tilted her head in confusion.
"How far can you spot or hear a sound?" Theo asked.
That question made her understand what her role was. She thought for a moment and wondered how to convey it to him.
She then looked at the door and the swimming pool on the other side of the house, pointing at both of them. "Kyu!"
"From the wall to the swimming pool? The range is roughly 50 feet." Theo was confused and still waited, feeling Ava had yet to finish her answer.
She then tapped the couch twenty-five times and raised her hand. "Kyu."
"Hmm? So above a thousand feet?" Theo furrowed his eyebrows. Although it was just a rough idea, he understood that her hearing was quite powerful. "Still, normal rabbits can hear four times that range…"
"Kyu?!" Ava took a step back in shock before finding raising her hand and nodding her head. After that, she pointed to the sky and pointed at her ears before making a surprised expression but shaking her head.
"Ehm… Wait, I need time to interpret that one." Theo scratched the back of his head. "What you said earlier is when you can understand the sound. Past that range, you can't understand it but still hear it… Something like that."
"Kyu!" Ava nodded furiously, showing she wasn't useless.
Theo looked down and pondered. "You can't show yourself outside, but I can use my illusion to let you peek without getting spotted by others. If you are satisfied with it, will you help me?"
"Kyu!" Ava's expression brightened as she jumped to Theo's shoulder without hesitation, not wanting to waste any more seconds at home.
"Ahaha," Theo chuckled. "I want you to use your ears to spot any possible spies that follow us. Do you think it's possible?"
"Kyu!" Ava raised her foot with a smile on her face, telling him to leave everything to her.
"In that case…" Theo put her down and changed his clothes.
A few minutes later. He came out with a white t-shirt and covered it with an orange shirt. On his back was a backpack filled with the Purple Haze Grass and Several Material Cards since he wanted to register the items on Skynet and allowed the agency to handle everything. They took 5 percent of the sales, but it was better than handling it himself.
"You can hide behind my shirt and peek through the gap of the buttons. I will put on an illusion to make it like there's no one peeking. Just make sure you don't struggle too much since I don't want you to be found out…" Theo nodded with a smile.
"Kyu!" She nodded, leaped to his shoulder and entered his shirt. Standing on top of his belt, she slightly opened his shirt, so she could look around. "Kyu?!"
"Yeah. That's okay." Theo confirmed it and put on an illusion as if his shirt didn't have anything behind it.
Of course, he had prepared another pair of clothes inside the bag since he wanted to visit both Assassin Temple and Fighter Temple, considering he needed to submit three missions to Assassin Temple and the personal mission to Fighter Temple to get the best of everything.
In Fighter Temple, he obviously couldn't wear his mask. That was why he wanted Ava to spot anyone following him.
Besides, he had gotten all the missions sent by Sarah. All of them were personal missions, considering many people wanted to meet him to discuss something with him, probably to invite him to their group.
He opened his missions.

Mission: Meeting with Faerie Group in the Faerie Group Headquarters

"Seriously…" Theo sighed. He had seen it a few times, but he was still impressed by the number. It felt like a fan meeting if he ignored the purpose of the meeting. "Haha."
Suddenly, another notification came up, not from his Skylink but from God of Mischief himself. It was such a ridiculous notification to the point Theo coughed a few times in bewilderment.
Trial: The First Mischief
Description: Meet those people, get all their money, and leave!
Reward: You get the reward from those people already
"What the—" Theo facepalmed, staring at the trial in disbelief. "Are you freaking kidding me? It's the same as making those people my enemies?"
Theo flipped out as he couldn't understand his intention. Making enemies left and right was the last thing he wanted to do, yet, the trial forced him to do it.
"Is there a way to reject this?" Theo furrowed his eyebrows.
Unfortunately, God of Mischief replied.
[No.]
[You can't create a commotion in the world without learning to do it on a smaller scale like this. Besides, you get money to buy more skills. Don't complain and quickly go. The benefits are worth more than the risk.]
"What benefit? They will try to kill me after this…" Theo clicked his tongue. However, he also found something strange. "Wait a minute. My main identity right now is Joker and I have no plan in using my real identity for the remaining mission, so I am good to go. Also, I should be able to buy time since I am mostly fighting on the other side.
"As long as I play my cards right, I can handle everything. Well, knowing there are many influences inviting me, I believe they understand if I don't choose them. It's not like I'm planning to offend them. Only two or three of them will probably think this way.
"With my current skills… I think I can escape from them." Theo thought for a moment. "If only I had a Metamorphosis to change my appearance… My escape is nothing but assured. In other words, this is free money."
Suddenly, another notification came and steeled Theo's resolve.
Trial: The First Mischief
Description: Meet those people, get all their money, and leave!
Reward: Guarantee Metamorphosis Skill in Hero Rank Advancement
