God of Tricksters

"Hmm, as expected, I have two choices right now. The Geyser Breathing Technique suits me as a fighter because I can use that eruption of power as the boost for my Thunderclap Fist or Magic Augmentation.

"Meanwhile, I can use Silent Forest Breathing Technique as an illusionist. It has a good circulation and mild Magic Power release, giving stability that makes an illusion hard to break.

"This is a hard choice. On one hand, I can get another technique in the future, so I can use something that suits my current style for at least the next two years… On the other hand, the other technique gives me stability to the point I don't need to change my breathing too much when I learn his Breathing Technique.

"Though I am also wondering why they're naming it like this instead of a completely new name? Whatever. That's not important." Theo muttered while thinking hard, pondering over his choice.

"I'm going to match my own Order, I guess. My main power in the future will be my Order, so I think this one is better." Theo sighed, choosing the Silent Forest Breathing Technique.

Theo had already realized that the Five Aspects were connected to each other. So, this Breathing Technique also complimented him on a few points. The first would be his overall stability which the technique directly offered.

Meanwhile, his Endurance also received a stable Magic Power from this technique, allowing him to constantly protect his own body with the Magic Power. The defense wouldn't be strong, but if he added the new equipment, his defense wouldn't be a problem anymore.

However, he also lost the opportunity to use the burst of Magic Power to amplify his Death Eyes, sending a more powerful killing intent to shake the enemy's heart.

"Well, every choice has its own advantages and disadvantages. I only need to live with it." Theo shrugged before realizing something. "Now that I think about it, I don't have this kind of problem with the Control.

"I feel like the knowledge about Control suits me perfectly… And I heard that it actually came from my father…" Theo squinted his eyes. There was a complex emotion in his heart.

"I shouldn't think much about it…" He shook his head and got some rest before continuing his training.

The air gradually turned chilly as they approached Christmas.

However, it didn't bother Theo as he kept practicing every day. He didn't care whether it was snowing or not.

The time flew by in the blink of an eye.

Theo finally adjusted his breathing according to the Silent Forest Breathing Technique.

Just like any other aspects, Breathing also had three stages. They were Burst, Innate Regeneration, and Unlimited Regeneration.

After adjusting to the current breathing technique, Theo managed to release the pent-up Magic Power inside his body. This step was called Burst.

But as one would expect from a technique that suited an illusionist, the eruption was weak. It didn't bring as much advantage as Theo thought.

The next step would be Innate Regeneration. There was one big step that he needed to take before reaching this step.

It was to mix between the magic power from his body and the environment.

By using the breathing technique, he should be able to turn a portion of the Magic Power into his own, regenerating the Magic Power he spent. Hence, it was named Innate Regeneration.

When he could raise the efficiency to 100%, he would reach the peak of Innate Regeneration. At that time, he could gradually assimilate the Magic Power in his body and the one in the environment.

Hence, it would be the same as him using the Magic Power from the air, which was limitless. At that time, he would reach the Unlimited Generation.

These were the three stages of Breathing. Even Theo couldn't imagine what kind of impact this level would bring to his illusion.

Unfortunately for him, he had yet to reach Innate Regeneration. Changing his breathing patterns was pretty tricky. It took him two months to make this Silent Forest Breathing Technique his way of breathing.

…

Australia.

Felix and Millie were standing in front of the house they had used for a long time. There was a sense of nostalgia since this house had so many memories.

Unlike the previous weak Millie, the color on her skin had returned and she also had gained most of her weight back.

In fact, she had grown into a beautiful young lady. Her eyes had traces of kindness because she had suffered and experienced so much in the past two years.

"February… We have made Joker wait for three months." Millie smiled while glancing at her father. After talking a bit more with Joker, they decided to address each other casually. She was kind of anticipating living together with her savior and finally putting rest on her father's worry.

"It's going to be a completely different country." Felix nodded while looking at her with worry, wondering if she could adapt to that place.

"Don't worry, Father. This time I will be safe. You don't need to worry about me." Millie smiled. "I have endured those, so I don't think I will need to be scared of other things."

"Right?" Felix made a wry smile before patting her head.

The five disciples came out of the house to see them off. Even though they had prepared for this day, it was quite hard for them to accept it as well.

However, every single one of them stood in front of the gate with tears flowing down their cheeks.

"Master. Please enjoy your new home."

"Make sure you eat well."

"We won't forget about your teaching."

"That's right. We won't ever forget about the care you have given us."

"This debt will be repaid in the future."

"Then…" The five of them suddenly lowered their heads in unison while saying, "Thank you for everything you have done for us."

"You guys…" Felix's expression had mellowed a lot to the point he shared more smiles with them. He patted their heads for a while before holding Millie's hand as they finally walked away. "Goodbye and… take care."
