Theo took a deep breath. On the one hand, he had a hard time fighting against the original Theo. Even though their experience and strength were different, it didn't change the fact that Theo had the upper hand.
On the other hand, the original Theo's unique power allowed him to reduce the gap between them. In addition to the similar way of thinking, they couldn't outsmart each other easily.
Theo managed to injure the original Theo, but he also had a superficial wound next to his chest.
'What should I do… I can kind of understand that our way of thinking is similar. However, I am the Reality Saint while he is the Devouring Saint. His Magic Power might never run out because of his Authority, but I should be able to outsmart him, considering I have walked on the path of a trickster.'
Even though Theo muttered those words, he still had a hard time finding the path to win against the original Theo.
'Still…' Theo furrowed his eyebrows. Although he hadn't found anything useful yet, he had seen a lot of the original Theo's abilities. Including the previous fight a few years ago, he knew that this information would allow him to win.
'Since I have seen his abilities and to what extent they can be used, I think I should be able to start overwhelming him…' Theo muttered inwardly.
After reassessing the original Theo's power, Theo began his next plan. He jumped forth while gathering his Magic Power around his hands.
The original Theo had a plan of his own, so he did the same thing. It seemed that they had a similar plan once again.
Theo waved his hand, scattering the Magic Power in his hands. The Magic Power joined each other and formed a few invisible circles in the air.
"!!!" The original Theo seemed to have the same thought. Instead of a few circles, the original Theo only used one big black hole to suck the energy in the area.
As a result, the Magic Power that had formed from the Invisible Vortex got sucked into the black hole.
However, Theo immediately used his Reverse World to change the character of the black hole. It then started blowing out Magic Power, but because it was in Theo's direction, the latter had to escape before his own attack hit him.
Surprisingly, Theo maintained his position as if he wasn't bothered by all this Magic Power.
The original Theo was confused, thinking Theo wouldn't allow himself to get hit without any reason. Yet, the closer the Magic Power was to Theo, the more Theo didn't do anything. In fact, he looked like he was simply standing with a blank look, waiting for everything to pass.
This was absolutely impossible for Theo.
'Is it a trap? Why doesn't he react to his own attacks?' The original Theo frowned. He felt something bad and immediately thought, 'Don't tell me, there are traps?'
Despite Theo not doing anything, the original Theo decided to crush the invisible vortex with his own power, causing the two attacks to neutralize each other. In other words, the original Theo decided to pull off his attack even though Theo didn't do anything. This was shocking, but it didn't seem to be that weird either.
Theo was a master of tricks. Just like the God of Mischief, he couldn't be trusted even though he told the truth.
That was why the original Theo decided to wait first and check what Theo was planning to do.
But to his surprise, the moment he stopped his attack, Theo suddenly smiled as if he had fallen into his trap.
In that instant, the original Theo realized that he had been tricked by Theo. 'Don't tell me… He never planned to do anything… He wanted me to think that he had already prepared a trap, forcing me to stop?'
The original Theo gritted his teeth. He gathered the black energy in his right hand, ready to shoot it straight at Theo. But before he did it, he remembered another thing.
He had been just tricked by Theo. If he immediately attacked him, Theo might use it as proof that he had fallen into his next trick. After all, Theo did nothing to force him to retract the attack before. And this time, Theo might trick him into attacking him so that he would be vulnerable.
That was why he stopped once again to observe the situation.
Unfortunately for him, by the time he thought about all the possibilities, Theo had defeated him in the psychological war.
Theo knew how he thought about himself. And the original Theo, who knew not much about him, would fall into this trick.
ραпdα -n૦νe| , c૦m By not doing anything, his existence alone could make one doubt his intention. And after that, they would be more careful since Theo might use their anger to trick them.
And it was just another trick. The moment they realized everything was just Theo's way of fooling them, they would attack him for real.
The original Theo didn't care about what Theo had planned in mind anymore. He was flying toward Theo. Even though he had to be careful, he couldn't be that careful either or Theo would take advantage of his own doubt.
That was why this might be the best way to fight Theo.
The original Theo thrust his spear, shooting out the black energy. This black energy had a sucking force even though it was far away from the original Theo.
It seemed that the original Theo wanted this black energy to touch him so that a portion of Theo's Magic Power would be absorbed. If the one in front of him was a clone, the attack would surely impact him greatly.
Theo obviously had seen through his plan. He didn't plan to let him get the answer. At the same time, letting the Irregular Guardian hit this black energy would be useless since the Magic Power to form the Irregular Guardian would end up being sucked.
So, Theo waved his sword, slashing downwards.
In that instant, the black energy started to split into two as if they had a body.
