God of Tricksters

Chapter 1846 Talking To Loki

After giving a proper burial for Theodon, Theo gave one last bow to him.

"…" Theo took a deep breath before turning to Loki. "So, what do you want to talk about?"

"It's about the situation in this place." Loki scratched the back of his head. "I'm pretty sure he told you almost everything. So, I won't repeat it.

"I just want you to know about three things. First, the battle this time might be beyond your imagination. I don't know many enemies you'll fight, but now I'll be helping you."

"I understand. Thanks." Theo nodded. He knew Loki was going to fight with him since the enemy this time was too much for everyone to handle. It was good to know that a Singularity Level Individual planned to help.

It would relieve a huge pressure from his shoulder. He didn't know how strong Loki was, but he had experienced his power first hand.

Loki might be his trump card in this battle.

Theo contemplated for a moment and asked, "Are you planning to involve other races?"

"No. I'm pretty sure most of them are going to kill us. So, I won't ask them. I think you are already aware of the difference between races and monsters…"

"Yeah." Theo nodded. He had some doubts all this time, so he asked, "I have suspected this, but have you gone around helping me?"

Loki smiled. Of course, he wasn't a humble one. He only spoke politely if he could gain something. Since there was nothing to hide, Loki admitted it without hesitation. "Of course. Do you like the sea race?"

"As expected, you were the one sending them." Theo pinched the bridge of his nose.

"I think you are aware of the reason, right?"

"I know. By sending the sea races against me, I can use them to get stronger. At the same time, the sea race will be weakened altogether, removing the potential threat."

"Yeah. And the culprit for that attack was none other than the mermaid that you once saw."

"Huh?" Theo was confused for a moment. He went to visit her according to the Dark King's recommendation. There were supposed to be no conflicts between them. Even after leaving the area, he had accomplished the mermaid's request as payment for her divination.

However, he didn't expect that the mermaid would do something like this. It seemed that everything she had seen made her believe that killing him was necessary.

And probably, it was the work of Loki, considering he also altered what she saw from him.

Either way, it didn't change the fact that the mermaid attacked her.

He couldn't help but ask, "So, where is the mermaid? Seeing how you know about her, it feels like you have seen her personally…"

"I killed her after that battle." Loki chuckled. He had changed into a fish to influence her to attack before eliminating her to prevent future problems.

"I see." Theo closed his eyes as if trying to understand all his actions. He also noticed something. "It seems that you have been watching my back this whole time."

"I just happened to do that. You should be aware of my real goal…"

"Right." Theo nodded. "Then—"

As if knowing what Theo wanted to say, Loki shook his head. "I'm not planning to do anything right now. Instead, you should be the one going around right now."

"What do you mean?"

Loki pointed to the east and said with a calm tone. "There should be a land of opportunity in that direction. I'm sure you're already aware of what I'm talking about."

"Are you going to ask me to handle the World Class Monsters?"

"Are you not confident?"

"If I have a clone right now, I won't be afraid. But this time, I have to consider the risks."

"Hmm? You don't have your clone right now?" Loki was surprised. Even he wouldn't expect Theo to use his clone to infiltrate the enemy's base.

Unfortunately, his effort hadn't given any results. He shook his head helplessly, "I don't have my clone right now."

Loki narrowed his eyes. All his plans had considered Theo with his clone. He knew how strong Theo would become if he went with his clone, so he believed this plan was extremely dangerous for Theo.

"If that's the case, you can ignore my direction earlier. It might turn bad if you follow it." Loki thought for a moment.

"So, you were planning to tell me where to train?" Theo frowned.

"The current priority is to make you a Singularity. However, I know how hard it is to become one even with your current path. So, I'm planning to give you a way to close that gap.

"However, it seems to be impossible for the time being. And I don't think you have a lot of time left.

"In that case, I only have one more suggestion." Loki raised one finger with a grim expression. It seemed the information was a secret that no one was supposed to know.

Theo felt like he knew what Loki wanted to say as he couldn't help but mutter when Loki told him about the answer.

"The pillars."

"…" Loki and Theo exchanged looks. They didn't seem to be surprised they got the same answer.

For Theo, this would be a great opportunity, considering it had the ability to help Theo utilize his ability. Still, this journey would be extremely dangerous since he would meet many World Class Monsters scattered around the world.

Theo contemplated for a moment. "This is tempting. The pillars are necessary for the battle. However, their purpose is different than planned because of my ability.

"In that case, I'm thinking about perfecting my ability during this trip while getting closer to that rank," Theo explained his plan.

"You can do that. I'll be taking care of these two and bringing them to that place. What do you think?"

"Yeah. I think that's a good plan." Theo nodded in agreement. He wanted to take them both somewhere before he left for his objective, but it seemed he had to agree to Loki's plan for everyone's sake, including his.
