God of Tricksters

"So, this is the structure…" Theo stood in front of a huge white pillar. Unlike the structure he found that consisted of four pillars, a platform connecting them, and a star, the structure he found was actually a single pillar without even a single decoration.

Still, Theo could see the extraordinary amount of power residing in the pillar. "Each pillar seems to have different shapes… Is there a meaning behind their shapes? I should ask Hel after this."

After fighting against the golem, Theo started his journey again to the pillar. And it took him one week to find the pillar since he had a huge area to find it. Luckily, he could use the Eagle Form to scout along with his clone, making the search far easier. In the past, he couldn't use his eagle form to go around because the energy from his body was that of a human. But with the help of the Reality Order, he had no more problems with it.

Though, Theo didn't mind fighting against monsters when he was just on a normal trip since they would become the source of his EXP.

"What kind of power does this pillar have?" Theo tilted his head in confusion while using his Order as well as the Reality Eyes to find anything different from this one. He also looked around for a monster to test whether the pillar could repel monsters as well.

"The effect is the same. I guess they can be considered the basic function. As for the rest, I think I can only ask Hel." Theo muttered while furrowing his eyebrows. "Yeah. Just bring it back with me. I also plan to visit the mutated monster, so I think I'll need this pillar to help me a bit later."

During this time, Theo had been asking one important question in his mind. Since he had been learning how to use his Order from monsters, Theo wondered about the difference between Order and Authority.

He had been cooperating and even seen Authority Level Figures fighting, but he still couldn't decipher the secret of their strength.

"What's the difference between an Order and Authority? Should I ask the world about this? But I don't think I'll get the answer." Theo scratched the back of his head. No matter how hard he tried to find the answer, no image came to his mind to explain it.

"Whatever. I know that there is a difference between Order and Authority, but I think I can know that after going to Hel. Then again, I don't know if Hel will answer that question. Should I go to the Frost Saint instead? He's not that far from my place." Theo thought for a moment before shaking his head helplessly. "Either way, I should continue my mission first. Let's go to the mutated monsters before heading to Germany. I want to cause them some mess for abandoning me easily after they take my plan away."

Because he was going to Germany, he wanted to meet the mutated monsters in Chernobyl, which allowed him to visit the Czar's base in southern Moscow.

This was a perfect course for him.

Of course, Theo used his clone to send back the structure to his place while the original continued on his path. Since Theo didn't want to summon his clone again, he used his eagle form to move around. It was also faster this way because he was traveling in the air.

Most monsters didn't attack him because he was another monster in their eyes, but some aggressive ones still attacked him. Luckily, they were just normal monsters that posed no problems for him.

With this eagle form, he also had another idea of crossing the ocean. He could fly in the sky, but he didn't know whether he would succeed or not due to the amount of Magic Power. He didn't know how much he needed after all.

Of course, he could choose the other path, which was to become a fish to cross the ocean. Either way, he should have no problem traveling the ocean if it was only by himself.

Nonetheless, he had no plan to travel that far for the time being. All he wanted was to gain as much knowledge as he could to evolve his Order to Authority.

Four days had passed, and Theo finally reached the base where the Czar was supposed to stay.

However, the only thing he could see was a ruined building. From all the scratches on the building, it was clear that this place had a bitter fight with its enemies.

"Are they alright?" Theo narrowed his eyes, wondering what had happened to all of them. Considering the Czar had gained many Mythical Rank Experts, they should have enough people to fight their way out.

Though, they would also be in the grasp of the Griffith Family. He didn't know whether the Czar would be taken advantage of or not because of their relationship with him.

Theo sighed, "Well, I'm going to check it myself after this. For now, I should investigate this place."

Theo walked inside the building, trying to find anything useful, especially from Yermolayev's room. There were still some documents left behind, but he didn't find anything useful until he opened the drawer on Yermolayev's office table.

He found a small letter that piqued his interest.

"The monsters are too much to handle. They seem to be stronger and more ferocious than normal monsters. We need four people of the same level to defeat a single monster because the monster will fight to the last breath as if it doesn't feel any pain."

"After meeting with some people, we have agreed to evacuate to Germany, which seems to have formed a big base. Theo should be there as well, commanding them. So, this is going to be a perfect plan.

"Instead of dying here, it's better to fight our way out. And if anyone finds this letter, go to Germany since it's a safe place."

Theo scratched the back of his head. "You want someone to find this paper, but you hide it in the drawer? Are you kidding me?"

When Theo was about to continue his rant, he suddenly heard a howl coming from two hundred feet away from him.

*Aooo!*
