God of Tricksters

Chapter 815 - Understanding

After reminiscing about his past, Theo laid down on the bed. Before sleeping, he summoned his Death Avatar.

Because of the room size, the Death Avatar needed to crawl and even occupied the living room and other bedrooms next to him, making sure he wasn't disturbing other people in the hotel.

Theo then used his Death Avatar to cast Death Eyes to himself before letting go of his consciousness, drifting into his dream.

Suddenly, he entered the realm where Hel tortured him.

"Hmm?" Theo frowned when feeling the chilling wind that came out of nowhere. He looked at the blood sea underneath him and raised his foot, finding that the blood didn't stick on his shoe.

He immediately imagined the blood smearing the shoe, and the latter immediately turned red.

"Oh?" Theo nodded, satisfied. "I think this is the first time I've observed this place peacefully."

Theo looked around and found no one near him.

"I've learned about killing intent, but I don't know anything about Death itself. What I've been influencing my enemy this whole time is none other than killing intent. That ferocious intent is not comparable to what she showed me.

"In fact, this realm was only a replica of her own. Then again… If I learn about Death, will I be influenced by its power? I mean, my Order might be related to it, right? Although it's powerful, I don't think I can display the real might of Death.

"After all, my specialty belongs elsewhere. It feels like I'm not myself…" Theo fell silent before coming to a realization from his last sentence. "I'm not myself…

"Now that I think about it, Death Authority and Illusion Authority… Aren't they basically describing themselves?

"There was also Moon Rabbit getting the Moonlight Order. I met with the Shadow Order too, and that guy was covered with black-colored flame like that of a burning shadow. As for the mountain king… He was a dwarf, so it's kinda related one way or another.

"Last but not least, there was the Darkness Order who was shrouded by something black or dark. Is the reason why Order will naturally come to oneself because it's basically describing our existence?

"Wait a minute. Does the world actually choose us because that's our existence? In that case, the Order is related to my very existence. What word can describe me? Who am I? What is my power?

"Maybe if I can answer all these questions, I can get my own Order? But then again, how do I get the Order? Ava told me that it would come to me naturally, but Avarice shouldn't be someone that irresponsible. She must have done something to Ava so that she could receive her own Order.

"In other words, my guess is right, but it's not completed. There is a missing part and that missing part… I can only get it from the dragon." Theo fell silent for a moment and remembered the three conditions the God of Mischief had placed on him in the past.

"I need to follow several conditions. First, I need to know why I'm doing this along with the other party's purpose. I need this to manipulate the conversation.

"Second, I need to be known by many, so they can understand I'm that kind of person. On the outside, I have been a bright and righteous person. However, behind the scenes, I'm doing everything with schemes, making those who try to investigate my background fear me.

"Third, don't lie when I'm trying to annoy the opposite party. These three are the conditions I need to follow.

"Now that I think about it, why does he want me to follow these three rules? Those four never give me something without any purpose, so there should be a reason why there's a need for these three rules.

"Now that I think about it, I don't deny that to manipulate the conversation, I need to know my purpose and their purpose. This is just a simple business negotiation. And after that, I can quickly turn the conversation in my favor.

"As for the second one, why is there a need to build my own reputation? Now that I think about it, my words won't hold so much weight without my reputation. That was the reason I could stir up some trouble in Italy just by joining the Safulli Group.

"And the third one… lie huh… I don't know about this one. Not being able to lie seems to be a bit excessive, especially in trickery. It's true that manipulating your word is a feasible option, but that's not entirely the case.

"Am I missing something? It seems I really need to talk about it with the dragon." Theo's expression became serious. "Maybe I should go to the dwarf mountain again after returning to Italy."

He suddenly fell silent as though pondering his option. After five minutes, he finally shook his head and said, "I need to practice right now. I can think of this later, but I'm glad that I'm a bit closer to the truth…"

Theo smiled before raising his hand. His head imagined his hand being cut, and the next thing he realized, his hand was already flying to the air as the pain started to spread in his head.

"Argh!" Theo let out a scream for a second before gritting his teeth, enduring the pain. "This is not enough…"

He looked at the blood flowing out of his arm and imagined cutting his elbow. In that instant, his entire lower arm was gone.

"Argh!" He continued to scream but didn't bother to stop.

"Argh!"

"Aaaahhhh!"

"No!"

No matter how prepared he was, the pain he experienced was beyond his wildest imagination. Even then, he never had the thought to stop.

Eventually, he realized that he could revive himself infinitely in this place, and the blood pool that filled this place was the real blood.

The blood of Hel when she tortured herself in this place to learn about Death itself. It took millions if not billions of deaths to fill this place with all this blood.

This was Hel's determination when she trained herself… This was… the reason why Hel could rule over the underworld.
