God of Tricksters-Novel

Chapter 1360 Rechallenging the Trial

　　Theo took a deep breath since it had been a while for him to challenge this trial. He remembered that the trial's difficulty would be adjusted depending on their strength, so he expected the lightning to be reinforced by Order.

　　"If I remember correctly, the first and the second platforms require me to avoid all lightning strikes, the third and the fourth platforms want me to receive the lightning with my body, and the fifth and sixth platforms want me to challenge three lightning strikes. Last but not least, I need to go through that cloud for the last trial, right?" Theo asked the Thunder King for confirmation.

　　"You are certainly correct. Do you need any preparation?"

　　"No, Let's do it immediately." Theo smirked while stretching his body.

　　"Very well. Please go to the first platform." The Thunder King nodded and guided Theo to the first platform.

　　Theo smirked and looked at the cloud that was ready to rain him down with lightning. But this time, Theo had gotten far stronger.

　　"For this one, I don't think I'll move… No, let's see if the trial can make me move." Theo smirked.

　　It was a bold statement for the Thunder King, but Theo truly had confidence in dodging the lightning.

　　After standing on top of the platform, Theo raised his head and smirked. "Come!"

　　The first lightning came forth. The speed was like that of a bullet, and if Theo wasn't careful enough, he would have gotten hit from the first strike.

　　But Theo simply closed his eyes and snapped his fingers.

　　In an instant, the Lightning dispersed, turning back into Magic Power. Then, Theo's Telekinesis swept the Magic Power, neutralizing this attack. In other words, there was no need to dodge if the lightning couldn't even harm him.

　　The Thunder King widened his eyes in shock as he never expected that Theo could remove the lightning with a single snap.

　　'What? He has become this strong in just three years?' The Thunder King narrowed his eyes, assessing the lightning strike. 'The lightning contains the trace of Order, so to remove it, he needs to utilize his Order too. It seems that his attainment in Order is not that weak.'

　　The Thunder King was thoroughly impressed by Theo's rapid progress.

　　Even if the Order remained, Theo had become a Mythical Rank Expert now. He could continuously pour his energy into maintaining the Attribute Removal. In other words, his Order was simply bullying these lightning strikes.

　　Theo smirked all the time as he remained still in his position. He only snapped his fingers every time the lightning came forth.

　　"Hehe…" Theo chuckled and passed the first test in just two minutes. In the end, he moved to the second platform and faced the same challenge but with more speed and more lightning strikes.

　　Nevertheless, none of them worked against Theo. He nonchalantly looked at the cloud and even showed a bored expression.

　　The Thunder King made a wry smile as he didn't see this kind of scene coming.

　　Eventually, the Thunder King came to him and said, "Well, the first and second trials won't be challenging to you, but in the third and fourth platform, it's basically to test your willpower. So, removing them like this won't be valid."

　　"I know. Don't worry. I'm planning to meet her, so I'm not going to pull any tricks." Theo smiled.

　　"I understand." After getting Theo's confirmation, the Thunder King leaped off the mountain and kept watching him.

　　As soon as Theo completed the second trial, he moved to the third trial.

　　"Willpower, eh?" Theo smiled and just sat down, not caring much about the strength of the lightning. All he needed to know was the fact that the lightning itself wasn't harmful. They just induced pain. As long as one could withstand the pain and didn't pass out, they would remain alive.

　　Hence, Theo just closed his eyes and waited for the lightning to strike him.

　　*Bam!*

　　The first lightning came forth and struck him right on top of his head. The electricity enveloped Theo's body. If he was a normal person, he would have screamed in pain because the pain felt as if someone was poking his body with numerous nails.

　　Still, Theo remained unmoved. There wasn't even a single sound coming out of his mouth as if he didn't feel this lightning sting at all.

　　Instead of pain, he felt bored. He was even yawning and complained, "How many more lightning do I have to endure?"

　　"Do you want to give up?" The Thunder King asked while checking Theo's condition.

　　"No, it's not that. The pain feels like an ant biting my skin." Theo shook his head, "So, if possible, I want to finish the trial as soon as possible."

　　"Well…" The Thunder King certainly didn't know what he should say about Theo's complaint. After all, Theo looked like a monster in his perspective. "You can only wait. You have been separated for three years, so I can understand that you're missing her. But a few more minutes is nothing compared to three years, right?"

　　"That's true." Theo nodded with a serious expression. "I'll be waiting then."

　　Theo continued to endure the lightning without letting out a single sound. Eventually, he cleared the third platform and moved up to the fourth platform. And he cleared it as well.

　　Finally, Theo had reached the fifth platform to test his might. Back then, he fought with all his strength against this lightning, so he wondered how much power he needed to utilize against the three bolts of lightning.

　　Theo took a deep breath and looked at the lightning cloud, steeling his heart.

　　Since he wanted to test this lightning strike, Theo summoned his Irregular Guardian first and shot it to the sky as the first move.

　　It was a surprise that Theo sent his attack before the lightning came forth, but the cloud seemed to be alive and accepted his challenge.

　　Theo smirked as the battle between him and this lightning had begun.
