God of Tricksters

"Zhao Jia! This is one piece of advice for you! One year! Prepare everything you can to withstand this disaster so that we can save as many people as possible. Understood?"

Zhao Jia was shaking in fear. She never expected the truth to be this bad. However, she could finally see Theo's brilliance.

Theo had realized that there were so many things that could influence his original self. And like what Loki said about Hell and Reincarnation, his original self should go to reincarnation instead of Helheim since he died in Thersland, not the US like the Death Reaper.

Then, for whatever reason, that soul managed to go there and remain until the soul met the Death Reaper. It was true that the Death Reaper's sacrifice to revive him was reasonable, it didn't change the fact that this original Theo mysteriously reached Helheim instead of any other Hell all around the world.

Hence, Theo suspected that his original self was actually led to that area by something out of this world. This was the sign Theo saw as the end itself.

For Loki, the prophecy that Odin once got was the trigger. But for Theo, the appearance of his original self was actually the trigger for that end.

When Theo thought this way, he created a plan not to handle the Griffith Family but the end itself. In other words, he trapped the Griffith Family so hard that they had no choice but to rely on that trigger to cause havoc all around the world.

Loki brought the end itself, and it was remembered as Ragnarok. And in this era, Theo planned to manipulate the end so that it appeared prematurely, lessening the impact. This would make the era avoid the true extinction.

Unlike Loki, who ended up in a whole world's extinction and died in the process, this premature end would give Theo a chance for survival. He was planning to use this opportunity to go straight at the one who created this world, the being in the higher dimension. This was Theo's manipulation and answer as the successor of the God of Mischief.

Even the Heavenly Sovereign was shocked when Theo told him something during their game. After understanding the chess' principle, Theo actually played in such a way that it averted his attention from the Griffith Family.

It was at that time he finally understood Theo's real plan was not the Griffith Family but the end. He felt lightning just strike his heart as he couldn't believe the 23 years old guy could make this kind of plan.

If he managed to grow up, he would become a terrifying person.

Since he didn't want to die and see humans extinct, he chose to fully support Theo even if it meant giving him the chance to grow.

Zhao Jia couldn't say anything. She had so many thoughts in her mind that she had trouble keeping up. But one thing was clear, her master had been working on this plan for so long. And Theo was the one who could work together with him.

"So, are you telling me to prepare for something that I don't know?"

"Yes. I don't care what it is, bunkers, food, or equipment. Just make sure that no one knows about what I have told you in this place. You are better than me in preparation like this. What do you think are the most important ones?"

"Well, it must be military, equipment, and food. Bunkers can be built, but it will require a huge amount of manpower, I'm afraid people will realize it, especially the Griffith Family. If the end comes from the Griffith Family, it's not something we can show. But then again, if we're too slow, the bunker couldn't be completed. So, bunkers aren't my priority right now.

"I also have to make a plan about steps after the disaster. Because we don't know what kind of disaster that will happen, I need to prepare for all kinds of plans."

The Heavenly Sovereign nodded in agreement. "Well, Theo seems to know what will happen."

"Did you ask him?"

"He didn't tell me. You know, our current relationship…" The Heavenly Sovereign shrugged. "And the fewer people know about it, the better. So, he didn't tell me. A cheapskate."

"But Nagasawa Rea warned me…"

"That's right. Only important people related to him were informed like Nagasawa Rea or probably his woman, Agata Mota. Why don't you marry him? How about practicing a gentle and warm smile? Wife material lesson?" The Heavenly Sovereign smirked.

"Can you be more serious about it?" Zhao Jia sighed. She couldn't get angry after this because that one solution might probably be the best one. If she could marry him and get the information, she, who would probably become the commander-in-chief in this operation, would be able to do many things to prepare for the end.

Unfortunately, this kind of relationship wasn't possible. If this was possible, Theo would already have a second woman in his life. And with the previous bad relationship between Theo and the country, Zhao Jia only had one solution.

"Support him with everything you can to make him feel indebted." Zhao Jia sighed, realizing this was the reason why the Heavenly Sovereign made the first move and created an alliance with him.

He wanted to show Theo that he had become his ally, so he had to give that information to him because he was indebted. If he managed to become the second Wind Emperor in Theo's heart, he surely could get this information.

"What are you planning to do after this, Master?" Zhao Jia asked.

"Me? I'm simply going to wreak havoc around the world to support him. As you can see, that's the only way to get that information. If only I knew this kid sooner… Why didn't those old guys call me when they discussed what to do after the Grand Gaia Competition…" The Heavenly Sovereign pouted. "Anyway, I'm going to cause you a lot of trouble. Cover me up, okay?"

Normally, Zhao Jia would berate him. But she had a change of mind after learning about his intention. The only thing she could do was to aid him, so Zhao Jia said, "I understand. But please tell me about the matter before making your move so that I can handle the situation faster and easier."

The Heavenly Sovereign raised his eyebrows in amusement before smiling. "Sure."
