God of Tricksters

Chapter 711: Not Enough

The wind swirled violently as it began to gather around Theo.

Theo flinched and looked at the wind, thinking, ‘This is… Yes, this must be the same thing as the one that guy used. Who was it again? Never mind. That’s not important.’

He took a deep breath and glanced at Leonardo, who hadn’t made a single move. In that instant, he thought, ‘If Sir Leonardo doesn’t move, in that case…’

He noticed that the Wind Emperor didn’t have the intention to kill him and simply wanted to show this.

‘This must also be in-motion. And the way he moves the wind according to his movement… Wait a minute. Hands, feet, or even my body… Can’t I use the entire thing to do this in-motion thing?

‘Why did I never think about this… In-motion is not something I use to attack or defend. Instead, it’s something that I should incorporate into my daily life. In other words, everything.’

Theo came to a realization as he looked at the Wind Emperor. He took a deep breath and raised his hand, punching the air in front of him.

Soon, the wind that was swirling around him was disrupted as if there was another gust pushing them outward in one spot.

This disruption caused all of them to collapse and move in all directions, trying to blow away the people around them.

When the Wind Emperor saw what Theo did, he smiled and closed his eyes. “No wonder why you’re having so much fun teaching this kid.”

Since the wind had dispersed, Leonardo lowered his sword and said, “Hmph. As long as I’m with my family, I am always happy. I don’t play favorites.”

“Whatever.” The Wind Emperor shook his head helplessly before staring at Theo with a serious explanation. “Kid, do you want to be my student? I will teach you everything I know.”

“!!!” Leonardo raised his eyebrows, glancing at the Wind Emperor. He thought, ‘That old bastard. Is he planning to make Theo inherit his power? One of the top ten experts in the world wants to do that?’

Theo gulped down but still shook his head. “I’m thankful for the invitation. Unfortunately, I can only decline this offer.”

“If someone heard you reject the offer to become my disciple, they would make a big thing about it, and eventually, people will call you crazy.” The Wind Emperor narrowed his eyes.

Theo remained silent, not replying to his statement. This was enough for an answer.

Of course, Agata was thinking the same thing. ‘Top ten experts in the world. In terms of strength, although Sir Leonardo is not among them, it’s because the measurement comes from power alone, not strategy and tactics.

‘But it can also be said, only those who possess absolute power can become one of the top ten experts in the world.

‘I heard that the Wind Emperor once destroyed a huge hill with a single punch. And a man like him wants Theo to be his disciple. The best part is that he will inherit everything from the Wind Emperor.

‘And yet, Theo rejected it. I believe he knows the Wind Emperor’s power and reputation… He’s not a fool to reject this kind of offer without reasons, right?’ Agata glanced at Theo, wondering what was in his head.

The Wind Emperor started releasing his killing intent as the blood smell began to permeate the air again.

His tone became extremely cold as he asked Theo. “I believe you have a reason that satisfies me, right? You’re not going to tell me that you have another master from the Griffith Family and won’t accept another one, right? If that’s your excuse, I am not going to hold back anymore.”

Theo felt the killing intent from the Wind Emperor, but after experiencing the training from Goddess Hel, he felt this killing intent was lacking.

‘The killing intent from the Goddess and the in-motion from Fenrir. I realize that I haven’t been able to identify the true gem in front of my eyes this whole time.’ Theo closed his eyes, knowing that he hadn’t even comprehended the real lesson from Fenrir and Hel.

He took a deep breath and said, “Thanks to you, I have been able to realize my incompetence for not having the ability to discern the true power. However, if we’re talking about becoming my teacher, I’m afraid that I need to say this one thing.”

“And that is…” The Wind Emperor squinted his eyes.

Theo didn’t fear the Wind Emperor’s gaze and stated, “You are not worthy.”

The Wind Emperor released an even stronger pressure as he was angered by his statement. There was no one in this world who would dare to say that he was unworthy to be their teacher.

Yet, Theo dared to say such a thing. He asked, “Then, do you think the teacher from the Griffith Family is worthy of being your teacher?”

Theo shook his head. “We don’t have a relationship anymore. I have severed the relationship between the Griffith Family and me completely.”

The Wind Emperor suddenly fell silent and looked at Theo for a moment. He knew that if he continued releasing this amount of power, Leonardo was going to make his move.

So, he finally retracted his power and killing intent. He said, “Your words… can’t be taken lightly, you know.”

Theo smiled and nodded. “But I didn’t lie to you. I admit that you’re strong, but your power won’t allow me to achieve my objective.”

“Won’t allow you to achieve your objective? You sure understand that I’m one of the top ten experts in the world, right?”

“Yes. I am aware.”

“And do you think my power is not enough?”

Theo shook his head helplessly.

“Ha…” The Wind Emperor’s body started shaking.

Even Leonardo thought the Wind Emperor felt his pride crushed, so he immediately stepped forward, shielding Theo with the sword in his hand.

However, the Wind Emperor raised his head and started laughing. “Hahahaha!”

“Eh?” Leonardo, Davi, and Agata were dumbfounded, not expecting that the Wind Emperor was just trying to contain his laugh this whole time.

“Haha! Interesting, very interesting.” The Wind Emperor smirked and said, “I’m not enough, huh.”
