God of Tricksters-Novel

Chapter 1521 Theo vs Frost Saint

Theo noticed that smile before he suddenly felt the freezing temperature in his throat. The Frost Saint actually froze the Magic Power in his throat, but he didn't know how he could do that.

'I could use the Reality Order on someone, but the other party had the chance to resist by using their own energy as well as Magic Power. But this freezing… I couldn't even do anything. No, it was more like I didn't feel anything.' Theo thought while looking at the Frost Saint.

He suddenly remembered that he was still holding the Frost Saint's club. When he turned that way, the club was releasing a blue-colored Magic Power like the Frost Saint.

He almost forgot the fact that a weapon could become an artifact if it accompanied the owner for long enough.

After all, the Covenant Seal that the owner had given to the weapon would influence the weapon by its Order, causing the weapon to gradually change to match the owner's preference.

Theo had been doing that after his realization during the fight. But he still couldn't call his weapon an artifact since it wasn't at the level yet. Though, he had seen multiple examples of that such as Hel's Death Armor and Osiris' Crown.

Since his throat was frozen, Theo retracted his Metamorphosis, turning back into his human form.

After that, he grabbed his spear and released the energy from within the spear. The spear excluded the Reality Order from within, but its energy couldn't be compared to the Frost Saint's club. novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

'How in the world did he do that? I should have felt the energy from the Frost Saint if he tried to freeze me. That's right. This fight is to let me learn a bit about Authority. What's the difference between Order and Authority?

'Does the Authority have stages like Order? In my Reality Order, there are five stages: Assimilation, Magic Power, Illusion vs Reality, Reality Alter, and Reality Realm. They're systematic and their power is extraordinary.

'Then, if I assume that the Frost Saint had the same stages as me, I should separate the abilities that he used with Order and the one he used with his ability. In that case, let's start with the first one, the freezing temperature in my throat.

'My assumption is that the Frost Saint was using the second stage of Order to influence the Magic Power in my throat because I was about to release a breath. But if that's the case, how could I not feel anything from his Order?'

"What's wrong? You're done?" The Frost Saint asked while pointing his palm at Theo. He suddenly released a powerful blue-colored light from his palm, freezing everything around it. Crystal droplets caused by the frozen air started falling to the ground.

Theo could feel the danger from this attack as it was one of the Frost Giant's abilities. He immediately waved his left hand to use his Twisted Reality so that he could deflect this ice.

But when he used it to direct the freezing light, the temperature froze his Order again, causing it to change the direction slightly.

"Kh." Theo gritted his teeth. If the Frost Saint planned to harm him, he could simply turn the ice again to hit him, but the Frost Saint remained there without doing anything, waiting for Theo to do something.

Theo clicked his tongue and analyzed the attack again. 'That attack that can freeze my own Order… It must be the fourth stage. I can alter reality, but he can freeze everything. It should be something like that. But because his ice is far too strong for my reality, it can even freeze my power, never letting it be activated.'

Theo took a deep breath and chose to attack this time. He summoned a giant Magic Bullet by gathering all his Magic Power.

Seeing this power, the Frost Saint tried to freeze it again, but Theo smiled this time.

The moment the ball was freezing, the ice exploded by the second burst inside the lump of Magic Power. This was Mark's technique that he learned from him during their visit to Atlantis.

The Frost Saint maintained his calm face as he simply covered his body with the club, letting it block the shock wave. After that, the Frost Giant waved his club again from the side.

Theo hurriedly leaped upward to avoid the club that ended up creating a giant crater on the ground.

But when the club touched the ground, the crater was covered in a thick layer of ice. The trees, the rocks… nothing was spared from being frozen.

"…" Theo glanced at it again, wondering what technique he used. After all, his Reality Eyes didn't pick anything, showing that this ability came from his Authority instead of any skills.

'The third stage? He is using that ability to freeze the ground now? No, wait, maybe the attack before this is the third stage instead? Freezing vs everything or something. That's like my Illusion vs Reality. If that's the case, what's about the ability similar to my Reality Alter?'

Theo was confused. He asked the Frost Saint to show him Authority, but it seemed that his attack was only using his Order.

"What are you planning to show me, Frost Saint?" Theo asked while furrowing his eyebrows.

"The fact that you're still asking that question means you haven't got it yet." The Frost Saint smiled and flicked his fingers.

The black cloud hovering above their heads began to let out snow as if he was planning to cover this entire field with snow.

The temperature dropped significantly to the point Theo had to use his own Magic Power to protect himself from the cold.

Theo furrowed his eyebrows and used his Reality Order to remove the snow from this area. He even used his Reality Realm to create a small domain that denied the existence of snow and cold, returning the temperature to the previous state.

Still, to cover this much area, Theo let out quite a huge amount of energy. He wouldn't last long in this state.

But the Frost Saint was much worse than he expected because he actually smirked and taunted him. "What's wrong? The Dark King is more capable than you."
