God of Tricksters

Chapter 536 - Awareness

"Then do you know anything about Awareness?" She first asked Theo's understanding of the Awareness.

Theo looked down, contemplating his answer. "Awareness is related to our senses: sight, touch, smell, taste, and hearing. We can increase our vision range, become more sensitive to touch, smell, and taste, and improve our hearing.

"After doing the basics, we can then step from inner to outer. In other words, we can see something from another perspective, feeling the touch, smelling the scent, or tasting something far away from our body. The same applies to the hearing.

"Only after that time will we break our limit," answered Theo while recalling the stuff he learned from the book.

"That's good enough." Hel nodded in agreement before pointing at him. "Now that you have started training the first stage of Awareness, I am going to teach you the second step. How to channel your senses to your surroundings, including other people."

Theo took a deep breath and asked, "Is this similar to killing intent?"

"Yes, but no." Hel shook her head and released her killing intent.

Theo sucked a cold breath as he felt enveloped by this killing intent as if thousands of needles were piercing his skin. His body refused to move out of fear and his heart started beating rapidly.

Suddenly, the killing intent disappeared and Theo fell to his knees. His forehead was covered with sweat as he panted. "That is killing intent…"

"Yes. Well, I have seen billions of deaths, so you shouldn't compare yourself to me." She waved her hand as if telling Theo to stay focused on his own level. "However, this is also a killing intent."

She looked Theo in the eyes as the latter was stunned for a split second.

In that instant, his consciousness returned to the same blood sea with only darkness in his vision.

Before he experienced death, Theo had returned to the grassland.

He came to a realization and stuttered, "You… You want… to teach me… the latter?"

"Correct." She smiled. "What's the difference between the first one and the second one?"

Theo looked down and said, "Illusion?"

"No. You are wrong." She paused for a moment and gave a hint to Theo. "What have you practiced until now?"

"What have I practiced?" Theo muttered before drawing a gasp. "Control?! No, to be more specific, it's Magic Power."

"As expected, I like your brain." She licked her lips. "That's right. It's Magic Power. What will happen if you gather the Magic Power?"

"They will be visible to naked eyes."

"Exactly." She raised her finger and formed a small blue ball. "This is Magic Power. But…"

She pointed her finger to Theo and shot the blue light at him. However, it suddenly disappeared after flying for a few feet.

"It's gone, but…" She smiled and looked at Theo mysteriously.

To his surprise, Theo felt something on his forehead. Although it meant no harm, he indeed felt something.

"This is…" Theo furrowed his eyebrows. "That wasn't Telekinesis… Instead, it was External Flow."

"Exactly." She smiled and released the same killing intent. "Instead of creating something powerful with your Magic Power, you should use your Magic Power like it's a thread of hair. The movement should be quiet and undetected… And the moment you are about to strike your prey, focus all your power in one go and…"

Before she finished, Theo blinked his eyes and realized he had returned to the blood sea. This time, his limbs suddenly got severed along with his head.

"Argh!" Theo screamed but soon saw his lifeless body. It was then he went back to the grassland.

He bent his knees and used his hand to support his body while panting. "That is…"

"Have you understood?"

Theo clutched his heart while sweating. Even then, he looked at Hel and nodded. "I think. It's the opposite form of my Control. Normally, I need to gather enough Magic Power to form a weapon. However, what you did earlier…

"It was forming a small invisible thread that approached me and struck at my consciousness… Or maybe my mind."

"I will give you seventy points out of a hundred, I guess." She nodded a few times as if she was satisfied with Theo's answer. "What has truly happened is… I am combining my Awareness and killing intent at the same time.

"This will reinforce the killing intent you want to transmit to others. However, killing intent is not a thing because there's simply no medium to travel. Due to this limitation, you can only feel scared like the first one.

"To transmit this killing intent directly to your mind, I need Magic Power as the medium. In order to do that, I need a certain amount of Control to form a thread or you can say a medium and hit their brain. This will enhance the effect even more to the point you will see Death itself!"

"Amazing." Theo gulped down. "Are you sure I can learn something like this?"

"Of course." She smiled. "And you should know we have five senses, right?"

Theo nodded furiously.

"This one is just from one sense, sight. There are still touch, smell, taste, and hearing. I am going to teach you all the basics within four hours. That's why I'm saying this is going to be tough… Are you ready?" She smirked in excitement.

Theo's heart started pumping like crazy as his hand clutched his chest. Determination filled his eyes as Theo said, "Yes."

"Good." Hel clapped a few times. "Though, to speed up the process, it's better for me to let you witness it with your two eyes. For that, I need a volunteer…"

Suddenly, a black hole appeared on the ground before a white wolf, who was sleeping comfortably, came out of the hole as if it was lifted by the ground.

Noticing the bright light, the wolf gritted his teeth and screamed, "Who is disturbing my sleep?"

"It's me." A female's voice echoed in his ears as his body trembled.

He turned his head and saw the female waving her hand. "I need your help. How about we fight for a round?"

"I refu—" When he was about to reject him, the female's smile intensified. The more he hesitated, the scarier it became… After ten seconds, he suddenly kneeled in front of her while saying, "Please take care of me."
