God of Tricksters

Chapter 841 - Challenging The Lightning Mountain (2)

"Excuse me. I have a question!"

"Question?" The King Class Monster frowned and asked back. "What question? I hope this is not you trying to slow down the test to recover your power."

"No, no. This is a genuine one." Theo waved his hand. "Actually, this body can easily block all senses so that I won't feel any kind of pain. Even he already knows this. I am wondering if I can block my senses again or not."

The King Class Monster widened his eyes, thinking Theo wasn't supposed to ask this. After all, if he was quiet about this, the test would still continue with him completing the third and fourth platforms without letting a single sound.

"Why do you ask this?"

"This is a test, so I wonder if I should cheat the test or not. As I said earlier, he already knows about this." Theo chuckled.

The King Class Monster thought for a moment and said, "I've never seen a case like this, so even I don't have that answer. But since his excellency already knows about your situation, I believe it's alright for you to do whatever you want. Though, I personally wish to see you going through it like any other challengers."

"I see." Theo nodded with a serious expression. It took him a moment to decide to share all the senses.

He did all this not to impress the Lightning Authority or the King Class Monster. Instead, he shared his senses because he wanted to know the feeling of being electrocuted.

Unlike any other lightning, this one only transmitted pain. Hence, this was the safest method to know the pain produced by lightning. If he could reproduce this, his pain collection would increase, allowing him to create a new type of illusion.

After getting his answer, he leaped to the third stage.

"Since you're honest with me, I'll give you tips. Go to the center of the platform and sit down if you want to be struck in one place or lie down if you want to be struck in every part of your body. People have different preferences."

"Thank you." Theo smiled and landed on the middle of the platform. Since the lightning came out right after he stepped on the platform, he immediately laid down without hesitation, looking at the lightning that was going to strike him.

"Well… This is certainly scary." Theo muttered. No matter how fearless he was, looking at the lightning that was about to hit you was certainly scary.

In the end, he planned to pass this stage with his eyes closed.

It was at this time the first lightning bolt arrived and struck his chest.

*Zab!*

Unlike the first two platforms, the lightning was meant to be unavoidable, so there was no need for it to be slowed down. The lightning came in a single flash before a huge thunderous rumble shook the rocky mountain.

"Dar!"

Theo widened his eyes in shock when he experienced this with his clone.

The excruciating pain in the form of intense burning and piercing sensation spread from his chest to his entire body.

Although the pain would lead anyone to scream, Theo only gritted his teeth and endured the pain without letting a single sound.

No matter how painful it was, he felt it couldn't be compared to the death he had experienced this whole time.

'I shall use this sensation as my training… Burning and piercing sensation.' Theo remembered this pain in his head before getting struck on his right hand.

He experienced the same pain, but because there was no organ on the right arm, the pain was less painful than the one that struck his chest.

'Still, there's no lightning smell… I believe there is such a thing when you're going to be struck by natural lightning. If I can't experience it here, never mind then.

'This pain alone is enough for the aftermath. As long as I can endure this, I should have gathered enough data for my Illusion Manipulation.'

While enduring the pain coming from the lightning strikes, Theo contemplated what he would do with the data.

In just one minute, he had been struck by lightning fifteen times. Yet, there wasn't a single sound coming out of his mouth.

Feeling weird about this occurrence, the King Class Monster frowned and looked at the third platform. Since Theo was lying down, there was no way for him to check Theo's expression from the bottom.

'Is he actually blocking his senses? Well, it's not forbidden…' The King Class Monster contemplated for a moment before he disappeared.

He jumped from one rock to another, climbing the mountain. As soon as he reached near the third platform, he found Theo clenching his fists and gritting his teeth, enduring the pain.

'I guess I'm wrong.' As soon as he saw Theo's expression, the monster jumped off the cliff while thinking, 'He's enduring the pain, so it means he doesn't block the pain. In that case, this human is terrifying.

'To think he can endure such pain when he's this young… From his facial features as well as his strength alone, I know that this guy is very young.

'If that's the case, the human's mental fortitude is far higher than I expected…' The monster looked down, remembering the scene where he killed other humans that approached this area.

The image of them shrieking and screaming in pain with tears on their cheeks was still fresh in his mind.

So, he knew that Theo actually withstood all that pain with his willpower alone.

'He is not like other humans… I guess there's a reason why he's recognized by three Kings. Not only his speed but his mental fortitude is also at a scary level. Judging from his control alone, his strength should be quite high as well.

'I see. This human might be able to complete all these challenges, but I don't know how good the rest of his performance is…' The King Class Monster smiled as he felt a bit excited to see what kind of sight Theo would show.

'I'm looking forward to the rest of the challenges.'
