God of Tricksters-Novel



*Bam!*

"Gah!" The original Theo spat a mouthful of blood. Theo once again surprised him with his Multi-Layer Magic, striking him right in the stomach.

His organs felt like they were shaking. And the force from the attack ended up blowing him to the ground.

The original Theo gritted his teeth.

He looked at Theo in the sky with killing intent. He still intended to kill him.

Even though he had injured him like this, Theo had also suffered some injuries aside from the graze on the side of his chest.

He might have expected to see Theo with overwhelming power due to his growth, but he never saw the possibility of Theo becoming this strong just by fighting the Magic Saint. It seemed that bringing the Magic Saint and the Fist Saint was a mistake since they were useless.

'Useless… Why can't any of you even make yourself useful? One gets stopped by a mere Sword Saint while the other is strengthening him…'

Theo surprisingly landed on the ground instead of attacking him. It felt like he had the overwhelming advantage that nothing the original Theo would do, he wouldn't be able to turn around the situation.

And that was why Theo stood in front of him and asked, "I still can't understand. Even though we have experienced a different thing, our personalities won't change. You and I both know that fact since we are the same Theodore Griffith."

The original Theo gritted his teeth before roaring back, "You don't know a single thing."

"Yes. The closer one's to the truth, the more confused they will become. And that is also the exact reason why I think it's important to talk to you." Theo's expression became solemn. This might be the first time he looked at the original Theo in his eyes as if he wanted to understand what the original Theo had experienced.

Even though the original Theo acted like this, he couldn't imagine himself becoming someone like him without any reason. He had experienced a lot of hardships in his childhood, so he didn't think there would be a lot of things that could turn him into a madman.

That was why he wondered why the original Theo had a different personality. He thought the original Theo might have met the higher being that turned him this way or he might be pretending this whole time. Either way, knowing what the other had experienced was a good thing, considering both of them were the same Theodore Griffith.

The original Theo gritted his teeth. Because of that question, he couldn't help but remember the past he didn't want to remember.

Almost a decade ago.

'Huh… this is…' The original Theo looked down to the ground, looking at his body that suddenly started recovering once again. 'Huh? I was fighting the Hard Rock Turtle a moment ago…'

The original Theo didn't expect that he could look at his own body from a third perspective. However, his train of thought suddenly stopped once the Hard Rock Turtle rammed his body into the tree that supported his body earlier.

*Bam!*

The original Theo widened his eyes in shock. After all, his body managed to avoid it even though he was floating up here.

In that instant, he realized something was wrong. He couldn't help but look around and notice he was floating above the trees in the area.

The view instantly widened as nothing covered his eyes anymore. At the same time, this majestic sight allowed him to recall the moment before he became like this.

'Now that I think about it… I was asked whether I wanted to become the God of Mischief emissary or not…' The original Theo looked at his body, wondering what happened to that message. After all, it was an invitation for a blessing.

He, who had endured a lot of hardships to the point he believed his lack of talent, thought this blessing was his chance.

Yet, he could do nothing other than float here.

He also saw his body moving away from the turtle as if it had its own consciousness.

"Now that I think about it, since we're talking about the God of Mischief, I'm sure that it's one of his abilities. So, what am I doing here?" The original Theo looked at his hands, realizing that his body was translucent. "Whoa?"

He was startled and confused. On the one hand, he wanted to understand the current state of his body. On the other hand, his real body was about to leave this area as if trying to run away from the turtle.Follow current s on novelenglish.net . (f)ire.ɴet - novelenglish.net . bin

"What should I do? Can I move my body?" Theo tried to shake his body to see if he could move in this situation. Even though he was curious about the state of his body, he had to follow his real body first.

Fortunately, he was able to float around like that of a bird. It didn't take too long for him to be able to fly freely. Though, he focused on following his real body, wondering what happened to the real body.

"The God of Mischief must have a weird ability to do this, right? I mean, he must be taking over my body to let me escape…" Theo, who was still quite innocent back then, thought this was the only possibility, considering he didn't have enough strength to fight the Hard Rock Turtle.

To his surprise, the real body suddenly split into two.

"Woah? What? My body has split into two? Is that a skill? So cool." The original Theo was happy that he finally had a unique skill. He couldn't help but imagine how to utilize this ability once he got back to his body.

And eventually, the real body reached the giant cliff, where he used the sturdy rock to plant the spear right into the Hard Rock Turtle's head.

"That's right. This is also possible. I was just thinking about it…" The original Theo nodded in satisfaction. "That's what I probably would do if I had a clone ability. With this, I can finally return to my body."

The original Theo didn't know at that time his fate couldn't be any more different than the one he had in mind.
