God of Tricksters

“Huh?” Theo was startled and looked at the ring. “The inside?”

“Yes.” Lyrventh nodded with a serious expression, showing how much he was determined with his judgment.

“This…” Theo didn’t know what to do. He wanted to break it apart, but he didn’t know what was inside.

“Do you feel anything else other than the vibration?” Theo asked.

“I’m not sure.” Lyrventh shook his head. He focused all his attention on the ring but found nothing else.

“I see.” Theo thought for a moment. It seemed like he should go back to Hel first to ask about this ring. She might be aware of it.

After all, Theo looked like the Frost Saint when he broke the pillar, causing the two realms to merge. He didn’t want to repeat the same mistake, so he was going to ask her first.

“I understand. I’m afraid I can’t do anything about this ring first. But I’m searching for an item like this here, I hope you can help me.”

“I’ll cooperate with you.” Lyrventh nodded in agreement.

After that, Theo began his journey to find other mysterious items. But the longer he roamed around the town, the weirder the situation became.

First, he found more rings. The rings were different from each other. The second ring distorted the space around it, causing Theo to have a hard time transporting it. He had to constantly use his power to avoid distorting the item it touched.

The third ring had many colors. It resembled the colors of crystal to measure one’s affinity. There were a total of nine colors like how there were nine elements.

Because of this third ring, he was glad he didn’t break the ring apart at first. He knew there might be something weird happening because of that action.

With that thought in mind, he got the fourth ring which released some golden particles instead of vibrating. The particles also disappeared not long after and Theo couldn’t feel anything when he touched them.

In total, he found seven rings. Each ring had its own specialty, so it confused both Theo and Lyrventh since he could hear them vibrating.

It took them two weeks to gather all seven rings. And everything started to change from the fifteenth day.

When Theo was about to get some sleep, Theo heard a voice echoing in his ears.

‘Come here!’

Theo widened his eyes in that instant as he couldn’t feel anyone’s presence other than the two kids. He was shocked because he never thought there would be someone contacting him and he had no way to determine the person’s location.

Theo hurriedly released his Magic Power, trying to scan the entire area but to no avail.

Although it was faint, he could sense the direction of that voice. So, he immediately left his room to find the origin of that voice.

Surprisingly, Lyrventh was still asleep as if he didn’t hear anything from that voice. It meant only he could hear that voice.

With that thought in mind, Theo used his Telekinesis to leave their room, not wanting to awaken the children.

He flew a quarter mile away before he saw a guy standing on top of a building.

The guy had long white hair. Despite looking mature, he seemed to be in the middle of his thirties. He wore a plain white shirt and long black pants, albeit his cool temperament made him look out of place. It felt like he wasn’t used to wearing this type of clothes.

The guy noticed Theo and raised his head, staring at him with a smile.𝑂𝒱𝓵xt.𝗰𝞸𝚖

Even though Theo couldn’t feel the fluctuation of Magic Power from him, his instinct was telling him that he would lose the moment they fought. At the same time, the Reality Eyes actually didn’t give him any information as if this guy wasn’t alive.

Theo gulped down, not knowing what to do. If he ran away right now, he was afraid it was impossible to do it, considering the guy could alarm him from far away without him noticing. The gap between their abilities was simply too big.

Theo carefully landed in front of him. If the guy wanted a fight, he would have done so in the first place. Besides, his Reality Eyes couldn’t see any reality where he would meet him as if this guy only existed in his reality.

This was the first time he saw such a case, so he decided to have a conversation with this guy to see what was going on.

“I’ve come,” said Theo with a serious expression. “May I know who you are?”

“Shouldn’t you be introducing yourself first before asking for someone’s name?” The guy’s voice felt out of the world. Just his tone felt like it wanted to make Theo kneel down.

Theo narrowed his eyes and decided to comply. This was the first time he felt this kind of suppression. “I am Theodore Griffith.”

The guy closed his eyes for a moment. The smile on his face became bigger as he said, “I’m here because of a certain old friend asking me to visit you. I guess his arrangement has truly worked since I have seen this generation of Reality User.”

“Reality?!” Theo widened his eyes. His body shook. There were two important things he picked up from his words.

It was a request from an old friend. And there should be no one who knew such a strong person and did something like this here other than the God of Mischief.

And the other one was the Reality User. He said it like he was looking at a toddler, looking down on Theo’s ability.

“That old friend of yours…” Theo gulped down, trying to confirm his suspicion.

“You should know about him. And don’t bother to check me with your abilities… I only exist in this reality and I’m here for one purpose now.”

“What is your purpose? You said you only live in this reality… You sound like you’re going to possess me or something.”

“Haha, I have died in the past and this current form is just a projection of my power. You have gathered everything after all… Unfortunately, it seems that you haven’t realized it yet. Well, I can’t expect anything from a new Reality user like you, who hasn’t used that power for a decade.”

“Wha—” Theo’s body shook. He didn’t know how this guy knew everything.

But the guy stated with a smile, “I guess I have to introduce myself first. Well, we have a similar name. I am Theodon, the god of reality and uncertainty. Nice to meet you.”
