God of Tricksters

Chapter 1272 Teaching

When Walker was about to reach the ground, Theo spread his hands.

The ground suddenly split apart, and Walker fell right into the gap. Even the girls were stupefied as they were trying to save themselves from the fall.

“What is this?” Agata sucked a cold breath, not understanding the principle of this power. It should be an illusion, but Theo wouldn’t use an illusion with his Joker’s identity.

However, this turned out to be his illusion. Of course, Theo added something to shift Walker’s attention from illusion.

“This is… illusion?” Walker gasped as he pointed at the two walls and used his chains to stop the fall. To his surprise, the wall was intact, and he could even feel it. “Eh? An illusion would have been destroyed by now, but… What is this power?”

“Do you think I simply removed your chain?” Theo smirked. “I alter this world.”

“You what?!” Walker widened his eyes and looked upward as he could only see a part of the night sky. As Theo said, the ground might have been ripped apart.

Even though Theo managed to fool Walker, Agata knew precisely this was an illusion, a very high ranking one. Theo never told a lie, so if he said, ‘I alter this world,’ it meant serious business. Just like what he showed to Nella earlier, Theo was trying to show him the peak of illusion.

The illusion was to turn the entire situation into a part of reality.

Theo waved his hands.

Suddenly, Walker felt incoming presence all around him. The walls and the floor summoned spikes that almost pierced him.

He let go of one of his chains and swung to one side of the wall before jumping straight to Theo to defeat him.

Theo, on the other hand, had been standing on the platform he created from the walls.

“You truly have an amazing ability. Even with this alone, I really want to serve you as my master. You have the potential higher than anyone I can see…”

“Who is your enemy?” Theo asked. “You seem to hate him so much.”

“I only have one person that I want to kill no matter what. He is the Skyward Mercenary’s leader.”

“!!!” Theo narrowed his eyes. “Hoh?”

“Now that I think about it…” Agata opened her Skylink and saw the data about him. “It’s said that he was formerly a mercenary captain too, but his group was destroyed in a single night by the Skyward Mercenary.”

“That’s right. I want him dead, but I know that I don’t have the strength. Instead of killing him myself, I’m ready to lower my head so that he will die in the future. I know that it’s impossible to ask anyone around the top one hundred, so I’m searching for someone younger that has the potential to reach his level in the future.”

“Still, why me?”

“There was no reason. If I needed to say it… because the Skyward Mercenary sent their young master to this place. I wanted to ambush them, but he had a few Mythical Rank Experts as his guards. There is no reason for the Skyward Mercenary to come here, so there should be a big enough figure that they wanted to kill.

“And the only person I can think of is…” He narrowed his eyes, looking at Theo.

“Me, huh.” Theo thought for a moment as he knew that the Skyward Mercenary was aiming for Agata instead of him. However, it would be fine if Walker misunderstood for the time being.

“Though, I don’t have a plan in making my move here.” Theo shook his head. “If you’re hoping that I will kill them here, then you’re wrong.”

“Of course, I know that. I have watched the conference, so I know your deed. Killing someone here means that your reputation will be denied by the masses. However, as long as you promise me to destroy the Skyward Mercenary, I’m going to serve you.”

For Theo, killing those people would be good enough for him. However, Agata had requested him to let her handle the problem. So, he wanted to trust her even though he was worried about her.

After some consideration, Theo chose to not do anything even though he could kill them without any backlash.

Agata smiled sadly when she heard Theo’s answer. She felt a bit guilty that her decision forced him not to be able to do anything he wanted.

However, Theo gave a thumbs up to her as if telling her that he would accommodate her wish, like how she had been accommodating his personality this whole time. If he solved everything, it was the same as him not putting any trust in her even if he told her that wasn’t the case.

Agata clenched her fists and swore to accomplish their goals.

“Alright. Let’s wrap it here with one last round.”

“You’re going to stop here when everything is going to be interesting?” Walker frowned.

“Walker is it? Well, I’m going to accept you if you don’t die in this one last strike from me.”

“One last strike? Do you think you can defeat me with a single strike? You must be underestimating me. No matter how abnormal you are, it’s impossible to win against a Mythical Rank Expert in a single strike.” Walker shook his head in disappointment.

“Say that after you survive.” Theo lifted his hand as the Telekinesis pushed them back to the surface. He then closed the ground again.

“Rea. I’m going to show you what it means to have absolute speed. If you continue to hone something, hone it to an absolute level. Do you know what it means to be absolute?”

“Normal can’t win against absolute.” Rea nodded with a serious expression.

“That’s why…” Theo took a deep breath as he utilized his Order to the limit as his aura started to change.

Agility 1000…

Agility 2500…

Agility 3348…

Name: Theodore Griffith

Status: Supreme

Level 691

Attributes: Strength 850, Endurance 665, Agility 3348, Vitality 655, Magic Power 1100

The immense power from the Agility somehow put pressure on his surroundings as Walker and Rea dropped their jaws to the ground, not believing what they currently witnessed. Soon, Theo disappeared.

“This is—” Walker couldn’t finish his own thought as his eyes had moved to the corner as if trying to follow Theo’s movement.

However, Theo was too fast. He reappeared a few feet behind him from his position as if he had just teleported. His hand was also holding a sword.

*Boom!*

A shock wave shook the area as Rea gasped. “A shock wave? No, he is too fast… This might be a sonic boom… He… Has he surpassed the speed of sound? A human has surpassed the speed of sound?”

“I can destroy the Skyward Mercenary for you, but what can you offer me?”

Walker smiled excitedly as he said, “Everything, My Mas—!”

He couldn’t finish his words as his shirt and his chest were cut, and a huge amount of blood spurted from his body.

“What?” Rea looked at Theo in horror. “He was too fast. It was like the body and the severed blood vessels took a while to realize they had been cut.”
