God of Tricksters

Chapter 972 Theo vs Winston (1)

"Boom!"

Theo and Winston reappeared in the middle of the arena. The collision between their fists created a small shock wave that shook the arena.

"…" Winston furrowed his eyebrows when he felt Theo's strength. Even though his level was far lower than him, his strength seemed to be not that weak. In fact, he couldn't push him back.

He tried to lean forward to get more power, but Theo didn't even flinch. Their fists were still trying to push each other.

Since he had confirmed Theo's brute strength, Winston stopped holding back. Pink light covered his right hand as he punched Theo in the face.

It was clear this was his Space Bending Fist, so Theo never had the intention to take it head-on. Without hesitation, he opened his fist and grabbed Winston's left wrist, pulling him in.

Not only did Theo hide behind Winston's body, but he also took this opportunity to summon a sword on his left hand to cut him.

Winston's aim immediately changed. His Space Bending Fist moved down and struck the blade made of Magic Power.

In that instant, the blade suddenly curved in a weird way. The bent made the blade loop around, creating half a sphere.

'I wonder what will happen if a real sword hits that fist?' Theo thought while leaping away. Now that they each failed to attack the other party, they should regain some distance and get more serious.

"I won't underestimate you anymore. That's why all your tricks won't be of any use today." Winston shouted while waving both his hands.

Theo widened his eyes when he felt the Magic Power fluctuating.

'Left and right?' It was weird to sense this fluctuation since he couldn't see anything forming around him. If it was wind or pressure, he could still sense them. But this was space.

There was nothing to be sensed other than the fluctuation. Only when it was close enough that Theo could feel the sucking force that would squeeze him to death.

Theo waved both hands to the sides and pushed the air with his Telekinesis. He wanted to see what would happen to the air and the pressure.

To his surprise, the air turned into a torrent as if there was an invisible whirlpool on both sides. The pressure, on the other hand, managed to stop this space distortion for a while.

'Hmm…' Theo narrowed his eyes and leaped back to escape from this power, witnessing the clash between Winston's attacks.

This time, there was a slight distortion in the air.

'So, that's space huh… His style is indeed very different from Lorenzo.' Theo muttered inwardly while trying to find the way to win. He also read information about that skill.

Skill: Spatial Merge (A)

Effect: Creating two Spatial Distortions and combining them into one to create an even more powerful distortion.

The instant Theo leaped back, Winston pushed both hands forward, launching the spatial distortion to him.

Theo saw a massive stone spike next to him and cut it with his sword. After that, he kicked the stone to see what would happen to the real thing.

As he expected, the rock bent a bit before the space force shattered it into pieces.

"…" Theo narrowed his eyes before glancing to the side as Winston teleported himself while preparing to punch him in the face.

Skill: Space Bending Fist (B)

Effect: Concentrating a Spatial Distortion around the hand to make an unstoppable fist.

'What an explanation…' Theo thought as he leaped to the side with the help of his Telekinesis.

*Fwoosh!* Winston missed and immediately chased after him.

However, Theo waved his hand and punched the air as the Magic Power fluctuated around his arm, creating a thunderclap.

Thunderclap Fist!

*Pak!*

The shock wave flew forward, clashing with Winston's Space Bending Fist.

As expected, the shock wave curved around his fist as they couldn't handle the distortion, but the remaining shock wave still hit Winston's body, pushing him back.

"Kh." Winston stopped in his tracks while gritting his teeth. He never thought Theo could stop him this way.

As he was about to chase after him again, he found Theo summoning his blue blade. The latter even had a form as if he was about to draw a sword.

The moment he waved that sword, a beam of light flew forward.

Winston raised his hand and prepared to deflect this attack, but right before the light hit him, it split into fives, looping around his arm and flying straight to his body.

In that instant, the pink energy in his fist disappeared as Winston changed his skill.

An invisible barrier was erected and made the five lights move away.

Winston never expected Theo to use something like that. At the same time, he should have thought about it because Theo's Control was extraordinary.

On the other hand, Theo could see this new skill which was a bit overpowered in his opinion.

Skill: Distortion Barrier (A)

Effect: Create a dome shape barrier made by Spatial Distortion. It will deflect anything coming into the user's way.

'For real…' Theo made an awkward smile as this might be the strongest barrier he had ever seen. 'Though the ground is an option. The description only said a dome, not a sphere. In that case, let's be aggressive, shall we?'

Even though he found a chance to launch a sneak attack, Theo chose to use it right away.

"!!!" Winston widened his eyes and felt numerous Magic Power fluctuations from the ground. He retracted the barrier and teleported himself out of this place without hesitation before finding multiple lights coming out of the ground. If he still stayed there, he would have been hit by several of them.

Winston started getting frustrated as Theo seemed to be able to find his weakness from one attack to another.

Little did he know, the only reason why Theo showed all these mistakes was because of Winston's brain. In this kind of battle, Winston shouldn't be able to think about anything, let alone the solution to his weakness. Hence, he made Winston aware of his weaknesses so that he would think twice before attacking Theo.

This would give Theo some chances to defeat him.

While they were fighting, the people who watched their battle started judging him.

"Despite having numerous chances, Winston couldn't come closer to Joker."

"That's right. I thought Winston underestimated him in the special region… I guess this Joker has some skills."

"If he can continue this way, Winston will face some problems soon."

"That's right. We don't know who will win this time."
