God of Tricksters

Seeing it still failed after four attempts, the space around the sword began to be distorted. Even Theo felt his arm changing its shape as if it was being squeezed.

Theo clicked his tongue and used his Supernatural Snake Body to resist the space distortion. Meanwhile, he used his World Re-Creation to expand reality, causing the space distortion to move away from him.

The space distortion started to release its force toward the air and the ground.

The ground was distorted. One side got pushed down while the other side was pulled up, creating a spike that would stab Theo.

At the same time, the air was also pulled into the distortion, pressuring Theo from above. This way, there was no way Theo could escape.

Suddenly, the little jade formed by the shattered gems released their power. To his surprise, the power was directed at him.

Instead of harming him, the energy seemed to be supplementing his Order Mark.

"This is…" Theo's eyes flashed as he used his First Law, Mirage World.

He used the Ascension Step and neutralized the pressure on top of him. At the same time, he imitated the Ice Witch and froze the ground. As for the Space Distortion, he decided to push it until it was too far to affect the battlefield.

With that, Theo defeated all the pressure and the blade finally lost its ability to fight. The last three gems flew toward the blade and fused with the gem.

This gem shone in rainbow color and started attaching itself to the blade.

The jade that his parents left behind on the sword was destroyed and the jade stuck itself inside.

Soon, the jade released its power and absorbed Theo's energy.

The Golden Magic Power was released naturally from his body and influenced the shining jade. Soon, the rainbow color turned into gold as if it was indicating that the jade completely assimilated itself with Theo's power.

"This…" Theo was surprised, never thinking this would happen. After all, the rings were Theodon's. Theo raised his head, staring at Theodon and asking for an explanation.

"This is what I'll give you as the new reality user. Right now, I can't call you God of Reality… And to be honest, I don't know if you have the qualification to be a God of Reality or not, considering your goal lies elsewhere.

"Anyway, this jade will become a transmitter of your power and will boost it even further. I believe this is what you need to overcome all the difficulties in the future." Theodon smiled.

"But aren't they…"

Theodon nodded. "Yes. These seven rings came from my Reality Scepter. However, I don't use it anymore since I'm already dead. Instead of letting these gems rot away, you should use them.

"Don't worry. It won't affect your reality since you have repelled my Order from them. All that remains is the pure energy that has been accumulating for who knows how long…" Theodon chuckled.

"…" Theo was overwhelmed by this favor. He remembered how his blade was releasing all that power and how he neutralized them.

He understood that when he neutralized them, he also scattered the Order that bound them, leaving the pure gems. This pure gem formed one jade and fused with his blade.

At first, he planned to use this weapon for a long time, turning this weapon into an artifact like the Reality Scepter Theodon had.

But it seemed Theodon gifted him the jade so that the blade could refine it, allowing it to turn into an artifact.

In other words, this blade right now has become Theo's Reality Weapon.

It would take a long time for him to turn the normal weapon into an artifact, so being blessed by this jade sped up the process by at least one or two decades.

This was a huge leap in his power. Although he couldn't use it right away, he should have enough time to completely integrate his power.

Theo lowered his head with a serious expression. "Thank you."

"What is this? You shouldn't lower your head that easily. The more you lower your head, the less it values." Theodon narrowed his eyes as if he was displeased by Theo's action.

Theo shook his head. "I'm a fair person. If I'm wrong, I will apologize. If I'm indebted to someone, I'm going to show my gratitude. Who cares about what other people think about me…"

Theodon smiled. "If that's the case, treasure that jade. It will surely be helpful."

"Yes, I will." Theo nodded.

Theodon looked at his hands which began to become translucent. His body was formed by those seven jades after all, so it wouldn't be weird for him to disappear right away.

But because the jade had been influencing the ring, the shattered pieces still contained some of its power, allowing Theodon's body to materialize for a bit longer.

"It seems that I don't have much time left." Theodon made a sad smile. He didn't want to disappear yet, especially since there was a new generation of Reality users in front of him.

Theo stared at him as if preparing to see him off at his last moment. But Theodon chuckled and said, "Why are you looking at me with that expression? I'm not going anywhere for the time being. This body still can last for at least a few hours if I don't do anything.

"However, I do have one more wish before I disappear. I hope that you can fulfill it."

"Please tell me." Theo nodded, agreeing to his request.

"Although you are a new generation, you are still the wielder of Reality. You should understand the weight of the thirteen Big Orders, especially Reality which is ranked among the top.

"That's why I'm not going to let you go and embarrass the name of Reality out there.

"This is what I want to do…" Theodon stretched his body and hands as if getting ready to move violently.

Theodon looked at Theo and waved his hand, provoking him. "Theodore Griffith. It's time for you to show me your power."

"Fight me."
