God of Tricksters

Chapter 668 - Meeting A Dragon

"How do you know?" Dourner raised his eyebrows, feeling suspicious.

Instead of looking at Ava, he was staring at the house. At a glance, the house seemed to be the biggest out of them, so he wondered if Ava knew just because of this.

However, Dourner soon said, "Never mind. Since you already know, follow us."

Dourner led them to the bridge that seemed to be made of wooden planks like traditional stairs, but instead of a rope attaching them together, it was stone.

The railing was also made of stone, making sure they didn't fall. But there was one more function that Theo was about to witness.

With Dourner at the very front, he utilized his Magic Power and activated the bridge.

The stone bridge that was supposed to lead them to the other side began to transform into stairs leading them to the bridge underneath.

He activated the bridge again and again, turning the bridges that varied in many levels into staircases that connected the entrance to the biggest house at the bottom.

"This…" Agata was stunned, never expecting to see such a mechanism.

Theo raised his head and realized something. "Although the bridges look messy, they seem to be overlapping with each other. From one side to another… If they all have this kind of function, I believe all these twenty bridges can connect to hundreds of houses in this place."

"I already said it, but you have good eyes for a human…" Dourner smirked. "Hahahaha."

Theo didn't know what to say regarding this dwarf. He had strong power and craftsmanship, but he didn't seem to be planning to hide his secret.

He soon understood why the God of Mischief called the dwarves idiotic artisans.

Some of the dwarves had noticed Theo's presence as they kept watching from their own houses, wondering what Dourner planned to do to them. This was the first time they got visitors like this, so they were curious about these humans.

When they arrived in front of the house, a deep, aged voice resounded, answering the question Dourner had earlier.

"The reason she knew was our link."

"Link?" Dourner was taken aback as he understood that perfectly. "Sir… You're telling me that she…"

"Yeah. Although it's thin right now, her power is similar to mine. So, yeah, her order is related to either Lightning or Thunder."

"…" Dourner looked at Ava with surprise. "Isn't this the same as challenging you?"

"Why should I care? I have lived in this world far too long to even care. Instead of her, you should look at the human beside her. I can't notice it because of the Moonlight Order earlier, but he, too, has something unique. Though, it's even weaker than the rabbit."

"Huh?" Dourner frowned and glared at Theo. He hurriedly raised Theo's hand and covered the pattern in his palm before closing his eyes.

"!!!" Dourner stepped back when he noticed the weak signal transmitted to his body.

Looking at his expression, Theo frowned and asked, "Do you mean I have an Order too?"

Before answering Theo's question, the aged voice said, "The rest can leave this place. I'm going to talk with these three and Dourner alone."

Dourner turned to the other dwarves and nodded.

After that, the dwarves moved back to the bridges and returned to their respective houses.

As soon as they were gone, Dourner pushed the door open, revealing the house's interior.

Contrary to his expectation, the first sight that greeted them was a large figure sitting on the opposite side of the house.

It was a dragon.

The dragon had a golden scale covering his body. His long legs were lying on the ground as his eyes were staring at Theo and the others. He even had long bread, indicating his age.

He gently closed his wings to make sure he didn't take too much space.

After a brief shock, the dragon smiled and opened his mouth. "Come in."

Dourner pushed Theo and Agata's backs before closing the door.

It was at this time Theo could finally see the house's interior. But to his surprise, there was nothing in this place other than some stone chairs and pots.

"…"

"There's nothing here." Dourner shrugged and walked to the dragon. He then brought a big wooden mug and poured a yellow-colored liquid from the pot. "Come here."

Ava tapped Theo's cheek twice and looked at him with a serious expression. Theo seemed to understand her concern as he squinted his eyes.

"If you don't mind me asking, are you the one—."

Before he finished his words, the dragon already said, "There's no need to ask. It's me."

"!!!" Agata gasped and took a step back as she muttered, "World Class Monster, Lightning Authority…"

"I guess that's what humans know about me." The dragon chuckled and said, "There's no need to fear. I am not going to kill you today as long as you keep this place a secret."

"But Sir…" Dourner frowned and rose from the floor. He seemed to be against this idea.

"Well, I am quite interested in those two…" The dragon smiled at Theo and Ava. "The girl has something that questions my Authority while the boy has an Order that I can't even verify."

"Even you?" Dourner was amused when the dragon couldn't even see through Theo.

"Yes. It seems he has been guided by someone special." The dragon closed his eyes. "Probably, the one who guides him has achieved Authority level."

[Hmph. This guy has good eyes.]

[That's right. Keep praising me.]

[He's not talking about you two… It's me.]

[Why are you three even competing with each other?]

"…" Theo's eyebrows twitched as he had the same question, who seemed to be coming from the serpent. Still, another question flashed in his mind. "So, did you all reach that level in the past? And what exactly are Order and Authority?"

To his surprise, their answer was the same and came in unison.

[It's not the time for you to know.]

[It's not the time for you to know.]

[It's not the time for you to know.]

[It's not the time for you to know.]

Theo was speechless and couldn't help but add, 'Well, I think I have read other Gods and Goddesses whose Divinity is similar to you guys… If Divinity is something similar to Order and Authority, shouldn't you have a conflict with each other? Scared… Nah, it should be a different timeline."
