God of Tricksters

As soon as they were ready, Theo used his Telekinesis to fly toward the north until they found a hill.

Obviously, the first one that picked the signal from the God of Mischief was none other than Lyrventh.

He was pointing forward while shouting, “He’s there. It’s the same voice.”

Theo nodded as he continued toward the hill. This was probably their first meeting after the apocalypse. And this time, Loki was using his real body.

It didn’t take too long for them to reach the hill and Theo landed at the top. He found a black-haired guy sitting on top of a boulder, waiting for him.

The appearance was the exact same as the Loki that he made with his illusion earlier.

The moment he noticed Theo’s presence, the God of Mischief opened his eyes and looked at them with a smile.

“It’s been a while since we last met.”

“Indeed. I never thought I would be meeting you like this. No, I’m more surprised that you’re asking him to meet me.” Theo sighed. The meeting with Theodon was basically the biggest gain of this trip.

So, he wondered what Loki wanted to say to him after all that.

“I made plenty of trips in the past, so I believed he was the best person to guide you.” Loki shrugged. He started glancing at Lyrventh and Lydia, saying, “It seems both of you are still alive.”

“…” Lyrventh suddenly stepped forward and spread his arms as if trying to protect his sister. He could feel the intention behind those words. “A familiar tone that comes not from being overly familiar but from watching us this whole time. It seems you have been around us this whole time even though I couldn’t find you this whole time.”

Loki smiled. “You are truly one smart kid to the point I want to make you my disciple.”

“Your disciple?” Lyrventh gritted his teeth and shouted back, “I don’t even know you. Do you think I’ll become a disciple of someone who didn’t even help us in the past few years despite being around us?!”

“Do you know me?” Loki asked.

“No.”

“Then, I’ll introduce myself first.” Loki paused for a moment. “I’m Loki Laufeyson, the God of Mischief.”𝒐𝒱𝑙xt.𝑐𝚘𝑚

“!!!” Lydia, as the older one, had been exposed to a lot of information even if she was only six or seven years old at that time. She once read about this name, but he was supposed to exist only in legend. “You are the God of Mischief? But aren’t you supposed to be living only in myth?”

“I did live there, but you can say I have come to life again in this era.” Loki smirked. “I don’t know if you can believe it, but I have been around you this whole time. Even if you don’t know what I’ve done for you, I truly have helped you.”

“You’re lying!” Lyrventh denied him without hesitation. He was shouting frantically as if he was annoyed by what he had heard. On the one hand, Lyrventh could determine if that person was lying or not by how they spoke. On the other hand, Lyrventh’s mind and instinct were telling him that the person before him didn’t lie at all.

Still, how could he believe someone who was supposed to have died in the myth to live again in the present day? He couldn’t.

Theo scratched the back of his head and said, “Well, I know you can’t believe it, but he’s truly the one from the past. I don’t know how he managed to preserve his life, but yeah…”

Theo had no explanation. All he knew was that Loki made everything possible. He had fooled the world of his death.

The same applied to Hel. Unfortunately, they might be the only people left from ancient times.

Lyrventh gritted his teeth. He believed Theo more than Loki, but the fact Theo clarified Loki’s statement just infuriated him.

He shouted again, “I don’t care. Whatever you’re going to say, I’m not going to become your disciple.”

“To be fair, I only said I wanted to take you in as a disciple, I didn’t say I would.” Loki shrugged.

“Why are you arguing with a kid?” Theo looked at him while shaking his head helplessly. He never thought Loki would be so immature that he ended up talking back to a kid. Though, he could somehow understand why Loki did it.

He was never a good person anyway. Even if he looked immature, he stayed true to his nature. Whether they were kids or elderly, Loki would simply beat them up without care.

Lyrventh snorted. “Hmph. Do you think I’ll fall for your provocation?”

“Right? You snotty brat. You just lost a huge opportunity. Unlike this guy here, I could teach you how to sense your surroundings. And I’m a master of illusion, so I can also teach you how to make an illusion to replicate what you sense, allowing you to see everything around you as if you can see it with your own eyes.

“Unlike him, I know a way I can use to make you stronger even though you don’t have any level now. I guess you don’t want that opportunity.” Loki snorted back.

“…” Everyone fell silent after those words. It was a big temptation for Lyrventh. Even Lydia thought it was a good idea, considering Lyrventh would be able to see the world.

Then again, Loki was so immature that he crushed this child with his words alone.

Lydia made a weird smile, not knowing how to interrupt them. At the same time, Theo had patted her shoulder as if asking her to sit on the sideline with him until these two finished.

Lyrventh gritted his teeth. His body was shaking. He wanted to accept, but he hated Loki.

Loki pointed downward, “Why don’t you kneel down and apologize? If you do that, I might forgive you.”

“Why are you so spiteful? So immature, unlike when you were around me.” Theo shook his head helplessly.

“You were mature at that time. Meanwhile, this kid has to know the harsh reality of being a kid!” Loki stuck his tongue out as if he wasn’t in the wrong.
