God of Tricksters



"Yo, it seems that we are meeting again, World."

"Theodore Griffith." The world's sound was transmitted directly into his brain. "You should be aware of this level, right?"

"Yes. Though, I still don't know the full difference between the Mythical Rank and the Singularity Rank," said Theo while checking his body.

"I'm going to explain a few things to you regarding this rank. However, you have to find out about the rest by yourself."

"There are five things you have to know about Singularity Rank. Once you reach this level, you basically become my apostle, the representative of myself."

Theo furrowed his eyebrows. "Are you telling me that I've become your slave now?"

Theo worded it to the extreme, but the point remained the same for Theo, who wanted to escape from anyone's palm.

However, the World immediately resolved the confusion. "As an apostle, you don't have any real job other than preventing the world from destruction. Even without me asking, you don't want it to happen, right?"

"That's true. Though, I don't like how it sounds. I guess I'll just forget about it and focus on the meaning of Singularity." Theo shrugged.

"I don't care about that. So, I'll move on to the second thing. Singularity Rank means you will be able to sense the power that has been maintaining the world. And from what I can see, you are already aware of Primordial Energy.

"This energy is different from Magic Power, Order, and Authority. To put it simply, the Primordial Energy is the core of everything, while the others are just there to fill up the balance. If the balance crumbles, the core can still function. But if the core is destroyed, the world will be destroyed."

"Well, I can understand. Though, I still don't know the purpose of the Primordial Energy." Theo fell silent for a moment before realizing the organs that had been enhanced by the Primordial Energy. "Wait a minute… Can I open my eyes for a moment?"

"I believe it's better for you to see it personally."

Theo opened his eyes and was shocked by what he found. The world was suddenly filled with color.

The blue color that filled up most of the air was none other than the Magic Power. However, he could see black energy traveling in the air like a wave. It was the Dark Saint's Dark Authority.

He didn't know why, but he could understand and recognize all of them. It might be because he had grasped the core and looked at the world from the center of it.

Theo glanced to the side and found multiple colors that came from all the Saints. Their Magic Power certainly had different colors, but he could see the faint light that seemed to be able to cause a ripple in the world. That ripple was their Order and Authority.

"I see. The Primordial Energy is the Core. Magic Power is like the last thing you need to fill up this world. Order and Authority are the powers that can directly influence the world."

Theo glanced to the side and found a sliver of pink energy traveling weakly in the air. He extended his hand and grasped it.

He recognized this power and couldn't help but smile.

"I see. Fate, huh? To think the Fist Saint truly got the help of someone…" Theo fell silent for a moment. After getting a new kind of understanding of Primordial Energy, he could finally understand Time a little bit. Since he had been saved by Time, he said to this sliver of Fate energy.

"The time can be reset, but you can, by no means, control it. Once you make a change, the time will split and two worlds shall be born. Please be careful if you play with time and thank you, one who seeks for fate." Theo was truly helped by this unknown person through the Fist Saint, so he gave her a warning to the past Madam Fila, which might affect the past Theo. Either way, the time wouldn't go backward, so no matter what he did, the current situation wouldn't change.

After giving her the message, Theo crushed the sliver of energy and extinguished it with his Inverted World.

Then, Theo closed his eyes again to meet the world.

"Are you angry?" Theo asked the world, wondering if it had anything to say when he crushed a sliver of energy that came from Fate.

"No. However, I have to continue with the third thing. Right now, your eyes, brain, heart, bones, and flesh have been enhanced by the primordial energy. With the heart, brain, and bones getting enhanced, you are able to wield the primordial energy to some extent and influence it. You should understand that since you can crush the sliver of Fate energy."

"That's true." Theo nodded in agreement. "What about eyes and flesh?"

"Your eyes can faintly see it, but you should see a different type of energy among the blue ones, right?"

"No, I feel like I can see it easier around the Order or Authority."

"That's also one of the examples. By seeing it, you should know how useful it is, right?"

"That's true." Theo nodded. If he could see it, he could make direct contact and even destroy it. It would take his ability to another level.

"As for your flesh, it's basically similar to the Magic Power. Once your body has been baptized by the Magic Power, your lifespan increases. Now that you have been baptized by Primordial Energy, I'm afraid your lifespan has surpassed all humans in the world. I have to congratulate and apologize to you."

Theo smiled. "Congratulations to me since I can finally become far stronger than anyone else in the world. But humans can do a lot of things in a short period because they are aware they don't have enough lifespans for leisure. Now that I have this kind of lifespan, my drive will slowly disappear because I can still live long enough to do it. And by that time, I might have to see my wife, my child, my grandchildren, my great grandchildren die first before I become old enough to die. That will surely be a lonely and painful life."

The world knew about it. The curse of having a longer life than the others. However, Theo added, "But you shouldn't underestimate me. In fact, you should fear me for having this kind of lifespan. Who knows what I can achieve in the future? I might even find the person who creates me and change you through him. Nonetheless, that's for the future."

Theo's expression became serious as he asked, "So, what about the last two? I don't have too much time, you see."
