God of Tricksters

Chapter 937 - Overpowered

"Is that Joker?"

"The one rumored to have defeated Mark?"

"Defeated him? You mean overpowered him?"

"Ssshhh. Don't say that out loud."

Their eyes were locked on Theo as they wanted to see what kind of man this masked person was. Unfortunately, they couldn't find anything as the Star Group kept advancing, not caring about the people here.

"Do you mind if I come with you?" Maya suddenly appeared in front of Mark while glancing at Theo.

"Miss…" Mark scratched the back of his head, not knowing what to answer. On the one hand, he couldn't refuse her since Maya was Bernard's only daughter. On the other hand, Theo's cold gaze frightened him.

"Please don't joke around, Miss Maya. My life is on the line, you know." Mark rejected her with an apologetic tone. Bernard had already told them not to mess with Joker. So, if Maya came together with them, the worst case scenario might happen. After all, he already knew Maya's personality. There was no way a peaceful conversation could be held between Joker and Maya.

Theo ignored her presence and continued walking as if nothing mattered.

But most of the people from the Star Group stopped because they needed to give Maya some respect. Since she had a business here, it wouldn't be good if they ignored them.

Everyone was curious about what would happen between Maya and Theo as the atmosphere became tense.

To their surprise, the one that broke that tension was actually Winston, ranked 1st on the list.

He also ignored the others and stood in Theo's way, showing his fighting intent as if challenging Theo.

And that action was enough to stop Theo in his tracks.

Winston said with a calm tone, "Nice to meet you. My name is Winston. I'm curious about your strength. If you don't mind, how about we have a spar here while waiting for the ice mist to melt?"

"…" Theo paused for a moment as if he was scared by Winston.

"You don't need to be afraid. I'm not here to humiliate you. I respect the strong, so I want to see if I should give you some respect or not."

After those words, Theo finally spoke, "Respect, eh…"

Winston nodded and said, "Let's fight. If you can last for five minutes against me, I shall recognize you."

"Instead of recognizing me… I think you should ask this to yourself first. Are you…" Theo placed his hand on Winston's shoulder and patted it a few times like a friend. However, in the third pat, Theo put more strength and pushed Winston down to the point he fell to his knees. The atmosphere became cold and serene as no one had ever expected this situation to appear. Even Winston widened his eyes in shock, not knowing what happened as the next thing he realized, he was already on his knees. Theo gave him one last word while walking away, "…worthy?"

*Hiss!* All the people, who witnessed the entire thing, sucked a cold breath. In fact, the chill from the ice mist felt as if it was increasing.

"!!!" Maya, Lexie, and all those who made it to the list dropped their jaws, staring at Winston on his knees.

They were aware of what kind of existence Winston was. He was the most talented person among the younger generation. And people expected great things from him.

Yet, despite having such an overwhelming talent and strength, Winston couldn't even fight back.

'What…' Winston's mind was in a mess. He was trying to figure out what had happened. He looked down on his thighs and thought, 'What happened? I lost the sensation of my feet for a split second… and the next thing I realized, I already fell to the ground.'

Lexie was shaken by this sight. She thought, 'What was going on? Winston couldn't even react to his action? Is he stronger than Winston?'

'But his level…' Marie bit her lips while clenching her fists. 'The level is fake? But the level registered in the Star Group is the same as the one registered in the Temple. Has he become that strong with only such a level?'

'Is this the reason why Father hides everything about him?' Maya frowned, never expecting her grandfather to find such a person. However, she felt something was wrong, especially about the way Joker spoke.

Even though he could hide his tone and voice, it was impossible for him to camouflage his accent. Maya looked down, pondering. 'That accent… Why does it sound familiar?'

Maya's mind started recollecting every person she had met, and there was only one person having that kind of accent. It was an accent very unique in the US because the person who had such an accent wouldn't be that strong. She looked at his back while thinking, 'He was registered as Level 521… That level is the answer. Is that truly you… Theo?'

Maya's heart skipped a beat when she realized Joker's real identity. It was a person who should have died in the Dark Poison Swamp.

While they had their own thoughts, Winston's body grew restless as he couldn't figure out what had happened.

His Magic Power began emanating from his body.

Theo's words stuck in his mind. It was the first time someone said those words to him after all.

'Are you worthy?'

There were only three words, but the meaning was clear. Theo looked down on him because they were not equal. And he even showed everyone here that no one could oppose him.

'This is getting more and more interesting.' An evil smile appeared on Lexie's face as she could foresee how the list might change with just this one single exchange. Although they couldn't witness Theo's real prowess, it was enough for them to know how dangerous Theo was.

As if he couldn't accept Theo's words, Winston suddenly rose from the ground and turned around with his body leaning to the front as if planning to leap forward.

"!!!" When they saw Winston's motion, two people appeared before and behind him.

The one in front was none other than Mark, who had released his wind, preparing to stop him while the one on the back pointed her gun at his head.

Both of them said the same thing.

"What are you going to do?"
