God of Tricksters

Death Reaper.

"!!!" The dog and the chimera widened their eyes in shock. Strength was leaving their bodies. The sharp pain felt like they were being stabbed by numerous blades. Their souls were torn apart.

They were confused as to how they even got all this pain for a second before they remembered Theo was in front of them.

In that instant, they realized the pain actually came from Theo's power. And everything was just an illusion, so they had to release their own power to stop the influence.

But the moment they did it, Theo appeared in front of them. He was still using the Embodiment with his Death Avatar.

Just like Rea, who managed to gain the strength of the mythical creatures, Theo also could use the Death Avatar's power aside from the four authorities. Though, it was more like Theo's original ability he came up with.

It was the combined abilities of Death Eyes and Death Descent. He made sure both of them experienced what it felt like to die by getting their entire body and soul ripped apart.

Unfortunately, the attack was only this effective as the two World Class Monsters managed to escape from this ability in a split second.

But that split second was enough for Theo's blade to reach them.

Instead of a sword, Theo actually used his illusion to form a scythe. This time, he really looked like a death reaper, ready to take both of them to the underworld.

The monsters endured all that pain as it hadn't disappeared completely, all so that they could raise their own weapon.

Theo's scythe then struck both of them in rapid succession.

The chimera used his fishing rod to stop it while the dog wrapped his paws with strengthening roads and struck the scythe.

But to their surprise, Theo's scythe actually passed through both their weapons and bodies.

'What?!' They were asking themselves at the same time, not knowing what had just happened. They had used their Authority and Magic Power to block it, so they shouldn't have missed it. There was also no fluctuation of Magic Power that indicated the weapons could change shape.

So, they were confused as to what was happening.

They turned around to make sure they didn't lose sight of Theo, only to find their translucent self actually came out from their bodies.

'That's…'

'Soul…'

The two thought the same thing. But before they could think of the reason why their soul came out, Theo's scythe struck both of these souls.

"!!!" The two World Class Monsters hurriedly poured their Magic Power into their souls. It somehow worked and seemed to give some restriction to Theo's scythe.

Theo seemed to be frustrated that his scythe couldn't go on. And this made the two World Class Monsters smile and pour more Magic Power to stop him.

However, Theo also released another wave of Magic Power.

The two World Class Monsters suddenly felt their bodies being split apart from the direction of the scythe. It was clear that Theo wanted to destroy their souls so that he could kill them in a different way.

So, they had to resist his attacks.

The monsters wanted to stop Theo directly, but their strength disappeared after pouring the Magic Power into their souls. They could only strengthen their souls until Theo stopped his attack.

Still, as expected from the dog, whose power didn't rely on an external tool, while releasing his Magic Power, he also released his road to attack Theo.

Theo saw the road and panicked. On the one hand, he had to continue to attack their souls. On the other hand, he believed this road would cause him a lot of problems in this fight.

So, Theo had to choose whether he wanted to sacrifice his body to attack or maintain a safe approach.

They thought Theo would choose to escape, but it seemed they were wrong this whole time. Theo didn't choose either option.

Instead, he created the third option that they would never think about.

Theo actually used this opportunity to reveal everything.

The scythe gradually turned back into a sword and the souls disappeared.

"!!!" At first, it looked like Theo had just retracted his ability in order to move away, but they were wrong.

Theo took this opportunity to startle them and move toward them at high speed.

The road was also trying to reach him, but he managed to get to them first. He swung that blade while releasing a sword strike that curved like it was alive, cutting their bodies.

"!!!" The two monsters widened their eyes in shock. After all, they had gotten so many wounds before they realized it.

Theo had completely outplayed them with those souls.

The dogs had seven cut wounds, while the chimera only received five. Even so, the wounds were quite deep, so they would be weakened as time passed.

Still, Theo wasn't in a good situation either.

There were four roads that managed to pierce his body and two more that wrapped around his arms.

Theo endured all the pain, but these four roads that pierced his body would have the same effect like his sword strike. In addition, there were two more roads that were draining his Magic Power.

He used his Blink to regain some distance while destroying the two roads that were attached to him.

"…" Theo took a deep breath. He wanted to use a healing ability, but he wasn't adept at it. And he didn't know how to connect the healing ability with his reality authority.

In the end, he only used his illusion to cover up the holes and the authority to fix those patches. This was the 'healing' ability he could currently use.

Still, Theo looked at the two World Class Monsters and smiled. It was truly worth it since he managed to wound two World Class Monsters to this extent even if he had to trade those wounds with the ones on his body.

Theo pointed at the two World Class Monsters.

"I'm going to kill both of you," Theo stated with a cold tone.
