God of Tricksters

Theo furrowed his eyebrows and waved down his hand.

Suddenly, a powerful pressure hit her from above, knocking her back to the ground. After that, Theo flew toward her, taking advantage of her unstable form.

But this was a mistake. As soon as he reached her, Alea parried his spear with her left sword and took a deep breath.

"Shattering Roar." She roared, creating a powerful sound wave that blew Theo away.

The latter recovered in an instant by utilizing his Telekinesis and used his Blink to appear behind her.

That was when nine hydra's heads surrounded him as three of them moved to devour him.

Theo glanced at them while furrowing his eyebrows. It seemed he had no choice other than to show his power in this match.

He spun his body and kicked the air with his Telekinesis, resulting in a powerful push from the side that knocked the right head to the other two.

The three heads fell together, stunning everyone.

"That is…" The Empress widened her eyes and glanced at the Wind Emperor, thinking, 'Although he's using his Telekinesis instead of Wind Element, this kind of power is similar to him.'

The Wind Emperor smiled and said, "Lyovkin, Levina. Watch him carefully. This is how you should use your power."

That statement startled Lyovkin and Levina, but they had seen that Theo's Telekinesis was at a very high level, so they might indeed be able to learn something from him.

In the arena, Alea moved all the remaining six heads to squeeze him to death, but Theo skillfully knocked them down with his Telekinesis alone.

Alea wasn't idle during this time either. She sneaked up on him and swung her swords at his back.

Theo blocked her sword with his spear and tried to push her with all his strength, but to no avail.

Seeing there was no advantage in continuing this, they leaped back at the same time.

"!!!" The two realized they thought the same thing. So, Alea hurriedly charged forward, trying to close the gap again.

Theo suddenly smiled and kicked up.

'Telekinesis again?' Alea frowned and prepared to get launched into the sky.

However, she didn't expect that the Telekinesis was concentrated on one spot, which was on her right hand.

That was right. Theo's Control was enough to pinpoint the force from his Telekinesis. This was the reason why he asked Leonardo to train him so that he could reach Grandmaster Level Control before the international mission.

"What?!" Alea was taken aback and couldn't hold her sword as the force was too powerful.

She saw the sword flying away while Theo prepared to take on her in this situation.

Without her second sword, Alea came to a halt and leaped away. She didn't have enough confidence in taking Theo with only one sword, so she wanted to get her sword back.

To buy time, Alea set an explosive underneath the ground.

Theo lowered his head and found the red ground. Unlike Lyovkin, he had enough time to step back and let the ground explode.

Boom.

The fire flared up to the sky, showing the terrible blaze that almost took down Lyovkin earlier.

However, Theo actually used this chance to show something even more shocking.

He lifted his hand, utilizing his Telekinesis. He created a continuous force from the Telekinesis, spinning the air current. It then fused with the blazing fire, turning it into a fire tornado.

Unlike Lyovkin, he had enough control to do something beyond this. He smirked and used the one thing that he had practiced the most.

The flame tornado turned into a giant fireball. But it didn't stop there. The fireball gradually took another form.

"This is…" The Empress couldn't help but rise from her seat, staring at the blazing flame in the air. "Impossible. He has reached Grandmaster Level Control?"

"!!!" Ana, Lyovkin, and Levina were startled by the statement while the Wind Emperor calmly closed his eyes, knowing Theo had more things in his sleeve. He wanted to see what kind of expression they would make later.

While they were taken aback, Alea didn't have the luxury to understand what was going on. She simply retrieved her sword and turned around, only to find a giant flame dragon above Theo's head.

This was simply the dragon he had practiced for years. Instead of water, he used Alea's flame and the air as these two were the only things available for him.

"Try to take this down." Theo smiled and waved his hand down.

Alea bit her lips and raised her sword. She released another Sword Wave to cut the dragon down.

To her surprise, her cut went through easily, splitting the dragon into four as the flame was bursting in all directions.

"What?!" Alea widened her eyes.

Little did she know, there was something hidden behind the dragon.

Twenty Magic Bullets that had been reshaped into rods flew past the flame and planted themselves into the ground.

After that, they formed a connection with each other in the form of a thin light-blue screen.

The flame inside the barrier was forced inside, causing more harm to anyone inside.

And there was only Alea inside this barrier.

Theo smiled as he thought of this because of Fenrir. The barrier was just a simple form of Sense of Touch and Telekinesis. But because he used Telekinesis to reinforce the barrier, he couldn't use it to pressure Alea from the top like Fenrir did.

Hence, he used Alea's flame as a replacement, turning the barrier into an oven that would burn Alea.

In the instant Alea stopped moving, the flame froze before the ice shattered into pieces as if nothing had happened.

"The winner has been determined. Theodore Griffith is the winner." The Empress sighed, realizing that Theo had finally become stronger than Alea.

'He actually waited for me to use my own fire, so he could defeat me?' Alea clenched her swords and realized she didn't have enough time to escape. Although there was a regret reflected on her face, she needed to accept the fact.

Alea let out a long sigh and said while walking away, "I guess this is my fate."

Theo looked at her and said, "Alea… It was a great fight. Thank you."

Alea couldn't show her face to him as she simply waved her hand to acknowledge his words while walking away.

The Empress glanced at Ana.. "It's your turn."
