"What are you doing here, Loki?"

The question made the tension rise. It looked like the agreement was different than what was happening right now. For whatever reason, it seemed that Loki had to come out right now.

Loki shook his head. "I've been watching your fight this whole time. His result is a bit too miserable that I have to come here."

"…" Theodon didn't seem to like the answer. The fact that Loki had just intruded in the middle of their battle already displeased him, so he didn't care about the reason. He just wanted Loki to leave.

However, Loki added, "I simply want to tell him a few things. It's not a big deal."

"Not a big deal? Do you think I'll agree with that?" Theodon gritted his teeth. It felt like he was ready to fight Loki if he continued disrespecting him this way.

Theo, on the other hand, slammed the ground with his fist. He cursed, "Shit. Am I too pathetic right now?"

Theodon stopped for a moment and glanced at Theo's expression. He looked miserable as if he couldn't accept himself being useless after all this time.

Theodon didn't really care about the result. After all, he only wanted to teach Theo about Reality Power.

"I understand your frustration, but I'm here to teach you about what you lack right now." Theodon sighed. He wanted to get angry, but seeing how frustrated Theo was, he felt he had to stop. At the very least, he wanted to fulfill his original purpose.

"I know. I have seen you combining all your power to use this ability. I don't even have that kind of ability."

"Of course, you can't. Our power is a bit different. It seems you have found your power, but you should listen to this warning. What you're doing right now is extremely dangerous. That power can even swallow you alive.

"However, in that danger, you can turn that power to be the strongest power that ever exists. Reality and Fake are just two sides of a coin. If you can't master that power, you will lose the gap between the two sides, allowing the two to fuse. When that happens, this reality will collapse.

"On the other hand, if you can master that power, you will be able to choose which side you're using. And that should be enough for you to become people like us."

"I see." Theo closed his eyes for a moment. He still looked unwilling, but it seemed he listened to his words. "Then, the one that will help me control my power shall be my artifact, right?"

"The artifact acts as an amplifier. You can use it, but don't rely on it all the time. Just like how I can still use my power without my artifacts, you have to—" Theodon was about to continue his explanation before his body suddenly shuddered as if coming to a realization.

"What's wrong?" Theo asked with an innocent face.

Theodon couldn't speak at all. He covered his mouth and started thinking, 'Wait a minute. He hasn't even admitted defeat. Why am I even coming out and explaining all this stuff to him? I was supposed to crush him first before teaching him, but why did I blurt everything out…"

Theodon widened his eyes in shock, staring at Theo. 'Since when…'

Theodon gasped when he saw Theo's innocent face. It looked like he had completely lowered his guard, making him think Theo had given up.

However, everything felt like it was moving due to a certain someone. And that someone was Theo.

'He might be new, but he is nonetheless someone who has the Reality Order. Even among the current human population, his talent and strength are among the top. Yet, this same person has lowered his guard and is asking questions innocently.

'No way! That wouldn't be possible!' Theodon's body shook. 'This means…everything is already part of his ability.'

"You…" Theodon took a step back before Loki suddenly appeared behind him, trying to stop him. Theodon angrily turned around and waved his hand. "Begone!"

In that instant, Loki disappeared into thin air, leaving both of them alone.

Meanwhile, Theo had pointed his sword at Theodon's neck and declared his victory. "Is this enough?"

Theodon stopped for a while before he gradually turned to Theo, finding a smirk appearing on his face.

"I know you are strong. If I fought the past you when you had the Reality Scepter and all that power, I would have lost. However, thanks to you reminding me that I'll meet him again, I remember something.

"Yeah. It's my identity. There is a reason why the God of Mischief, Loki, chose me as his emissary in the past. It was to grant me a certain title."

As he said those words, Theo couldn't help but remember what had happened in the past. In fact, this was actually the purpose of his power.

He had almost forgotten about it since there was a bigger goal. But at that time, the God of Mischief indeed said his identity.

His consciousness was fuzzy at that time when he accepted the God of Mischief's offer to be his emissary. When he was acknowledged by it, the God of Mischief's reply was…

[God of Mischief has granted you the representative position. Congratulations, you now have become 'The Trickster.' Mess up this world with your wisdom.]

Theo remembered those words with a smile as he explained what he did. "When dealing with a powerful opponent, it's best to lower my guard, making my opponent underestimate me. After all, you will drop your guard when you think you have won."

"Don't tell me…" Theodon gritted his teeth, feeling annoyed and overwhelmed at the same time. He couldn't help but recall what Loki had done in the past.

At the same time, Theo declared, "That's right. I have told you that I will crush you, but there is a difference between a normal fighter and me. A normal fighter will defeat you with their strength head-on.

"But me…" Theo winked his right eye playfully. "I am… a trickster."
