God of Tricksters

A moment ago.

Theo raised his sword, pointing at the original self. He had clashed with him a few times, but it seemed that the original Theo was stronger than he originally thought.

'We have only fought for five minutes, but we have used a lot of abilities. I guess we know what each other is thinking, allowing us to counter each other perfectly.' Theo thought with a serious expression.

As he thought, the fight only started a few minutes ago. There was still no significant change on the battlefield.

Each Saint and King still focused on their respective opponents.

Even though the situation forced him to take down his opponent as soon as possible, Theo still took his time to gather his thoughts.

'The plan is to kill our respective opponent as quickly as possible, even if it means sacrificing a few things. There is Aisha, who can regrow our bodies as long as we aren't dead, so it's possible to be reckless for a little bit. That's why this plan is feasible.

'However, each of us has different strengths. If there were two people whose strengths were at a similar level, the battle would last for a bit longer.

'The Sword Saint vs the Fist Saint, there is a big gap in their ranking, but I don't know if the Sword Saint can finish the battle or not. As expected, the only thing I can rely on is the Lightning Saint and the Goddess of Death.

'The Magma Saint shouldn't be that strong and the Dark Saint might lose against his opponent. So, he will last long enough until the Sword Saint finishes his battle to help him.

'As for my other self… this is probably the battle with the biggest gap in our strength. That bastard grandfather might be annoying, but his strength is good. So it might take a bit longer.

'In that case, I have to injure my original self as much as possible. After killing my original self, I will find another enemy to kill. The Goddess of Death and the Lightning Saint will probably kill their opponents since they have to go to the slime to help the other two.

'I don't think the God of Mischief will lose that easily, but I still can't predict the extent of strength the slime has…' Theo took a deep breath.

After recalling the plan and assessing the current situation, Theo knew that he had to focus on his current opponent.

The quicker he could reach the Singularity Rank, the higher the chance they could win this battle.

So, his expression became grim as if he was instilling the pressure from the entire battlefield.

His look was telling the original Theo that he would surely kill him as quickly as possible.

The Original Theo narrowed his eyes. On the one hand, he didn't like how Theo thought he had enough strength to defeat him. On the other hand, Theo surely hadn't used all his strength.

He hated the fact that his loss was still possible.

The Original Theo raised his spear as if challenging Theo. He indirectly declared that he would be the one who lost.

Once they had regained their breath, both of them jumped forward.

The Original Theo thrust forth while Theo swung his blade.

*Cling!*

The clicking sound of metals echoed in the area. The sound was amplified with the Magic Power infused in the respective weapons.

"You originally used a spear. To think you would have abandoned your own identity." The Original Theo gritted his teeth while exerting more strength on his thrust.

Theo's poker face remained, but he didn't seem to be repulsive in talking with his original self. Even though they experienced a different thing, it didn't change the fact that they were the same.

Though, due to Helheim, the Original Theo seemed to be unable to calm himself. In fact, he looked like the rage Theo would release to the world if he didn't encounter all the people in his life.

Considering the Original Theo died after he got struck by the turtle, he knew that this was also his personality.

Theo said, "Identity? Both of us know that we are able to learn something far quicker than anyone else. So, why can't you accept that I can learn how to use another weapon?"

Theo also exerted a bit more strength, sliding his sword on the spear's blade before repelling it.

However, it didn't stop them from swinging their weapons again. More than ten clashes occurred in two seconds before both Theo leaped away.

"I don't care." The Original Theo waved his left hand. "Devour."

A black fog came out of his hand and extended itself toward Theo.

Theo waved his blade and applied his illusion, causing the black fog to be cut into two.

Both of their eyes flashed at the same time.

The Original Theo used the Death Vision Skill to invoke Theo's death while Theo used his Death Eyes from the Death Avatar to send the killing intent. This killing intent was so strong that the Original Theo could see his own death.

But as someone who had lived in Helheim for a long time, the death didn't bother him anymore.

At the same time, Theo had tortured himself with the Death Eyes, so the vision of his death that the Original Theo had sent to his mind was nothing.

Both of them ignored their own deaths and approached each other again.

Theo used the Death Descent to show the original Theo his way to die. Meanwhile, the original Theo utilized the Darkness Descent, causing the entire area to be surrounded by darkness to the point Theo couldn't see the death strings from his ability.

The original Theo could easily see in the dark, so he immediately came toward Theo. Meanwhile, Theo used his Awareness to locate the original Theo.

In the darkness, multiple clicking sounds echoed again. Each sound was stronger than the other. And ultimately, the strong was so big that it created a sound wave that broke the Infinite Darkness, restoring the battlefield.

Both Theo glared at each other, trying to find a way to outsmart the other.
