God of Tricksters

"So, this is the cliff. It's pretty high." Isaac looked around while examining the density of Magic Power.

Theo also observed their location. Now that they had reached the cliff, he could see the other side of the volcano.

It might be due to the volcano, but they seemed to be surrounded by forest.

There was nothing they could find other than the forest.

"I guess the soil has been absorbing the numerous organic materials from the volcano." Maya pouted as she couldn't find something good.

Mark closed his eyes, feeling the wind in their surroundings. After that day, he could sense the wind clearer. He utilized this ability to hide a wind inside a wind, which Theo had seen previously.

However, both Mark and Isaac suddenly noticed something.

"There's a huge eruption of Magic Power."

"The wind is disrupted!"

They said at the same time, startling Theo and Maya. Even both of them exchanged looks with weird expressions.

But they seemed to be able to understand each other and pointed their fingers in the same direction.

"You felt that too?" Isaac was surprised, not knowing Mark to have that kind of ability.

"I just felt the wind flow was disrupted. Nothing else."

"The wind flow…" Isaac narrowed his eyes, falling into deep thought. He seemed to be deciphering all the clues to understand what was happening.

And it only took him a whole minute to reach a conclusion. "Is the wind flowing upward?"

"How do you know?" Mark was shocked since there were numerous ways to disrupt the wind flow. Yet, Isaac could get the correct way as if he could see it too. It seemed Isaac's reputation was well-deserved, he thought.

In that instant, Isaac turned to Theo and said with a grim expression. "I believe a crevice has opened up. As for why such a thing appeared… I have a few reasons, but I can't say anything without any details. If we can pinpoint the reason, we might find some clues about the island."

"Alright. You lead the way, and we will investigate that crevice." Theo agreed without hesitation.

"Got it! This way… around 3 miles from here." Isaac pointed to the left and immediately leaped to lead the way.

Theo and the others immediately followed him as Theo summoned his clone that turned into a monkey upon getting summoned.

This monkey was well-known, so there was no need to hide him anymore. Without hesitation, Theo said, "The investigation shall be carried by my monkey since we don't know anything about the crevice… That is if the monkey is big enough to fit…"

Remembering the crevice he found in Italy, he couldn't help but think that the crevice should be big enough for them to slip through. At the same time, he truly had no good memory about the crevice, considering he almost died due to that crevice being the trap set by the dwarves.

"Joker. Even if it's a crevice, do you think it will be that big? At most, only a small creature can enter… Probably, if we have a small drone or robot, we can investigate it, but I don't bring any." Maya chuckled, thinking Theo was just considering that kind of scenario.

However, her expression changed right after they arrived at the crevice.

The gap was around three-foot-wide. It should be enough for a human to descend easily.

"Why does this crevice have to be this big?" Maya made a wry smile. "It is as if it's trying to invite us in."

Theo ignored her reaction as he tried to look at the gap while asking, "What do you think, Isaac?"

"The wind comes from the pressure that has been stored underneath the ground. Considering it's still blowing, the pressure inside should be quite high. However, it shouldn't be powerful enough to crush our bodies.

"As for the Magic Power, there's a constant Magic Power. But… I am not very sure about this… Although it was so small that I almost couldn't see it, I certainly saw a white-colored Magic Power. Huh?

"My Analyze Skill can see through Magic Power's density… Yet, there is something weird about this Magic Power. Why is the color different from the rest?" Isaac furrowed his eyebrows. He couldn't understand the current phenomenon. This was the first time he saw this.

"White-colored Magic Power?" Maya and Mark widened their eyes, shocked. Magic Color should have a blue color, yet, Isaac told them there was one with a different color, it reeked traps.

Theo was the only one who understood the meaning of the different colors.

'The white Magic Power… Is the Queen of Destiny inviting me in? Is it her way to invite me?' Theo couldn't help but ask these questions.

He wondered what kind of destiny she could see, but it seemed her power allowed her to predict his arrival.

'It seems she knows about my arrival. However, I was supposed to go through another entrance… Did she read the future and try to change it?' Theo thought, wondering what the consequence of changing the future was.

"Joker? Do you know something? You don't have any reaction as if you know what's going on." Isaac frowned, feeling something weird.

"Well, just in case, my monkey will check the inside first to make sure everything is safe."

"You definitely know something. How about explaining it to us?"

"It's not something you should know yet." Theo shook his head. "People will kill you if they know about it."

Suddenly, another wave of wind came out of the gap, blowing everything away. But they found a palm-size rock flying into the air.

"Wait. That rock. It is emitting a white Magic Power!" Isaac noticed the power coming out of the rock.

And the rock miraculously fell on top of Theo's palm.

There was a small carving on the stone's surface. There were three words written on the surface.

"Joker?" Isaac was curious about the stone as he wanted to snatch it and examine the Magic Power.

However, Theo couldn't help but crush the stone with his hand and remove the Order with his own while cursing. "Ah, fuck!"

Never in his wildest dream would he think the Queen of Destiny would invite him in this fancy way as those three words were, "Tunnel, Come, Friends."
