Chapter 1446 Annoying

"What the.." The Dark King came to a realization. They were just an illusion portraying their own mind. This was the only way to explain this situation.

However, the truth couldn't be any different. This was the reality. Even though Theo was strong, he wasn't strong enough to wield the World Re-Creation to that degree since it was a skill above S Rank.

Still, it didn't change the fact that Theo had been practicing his World Re-Creation and the way to replicate what the God of Mischief showed him.

What the Dark King didn't know was the fact that Theo actually used his Alter Ego to increase his vitality status. He had five attributes: Strength, Endurance, Vitality, Agility, and Magic Power.

Strength and Magic Power worked like their name implied, while Agility increased his speed and dexterity. On the other hand, Endurance increased his defensive power, which he lacked. But if he wanted to heal all his wounds, he only had to increase his Vitality status to the limit with Alter Ego. The metabolism in his body evolved for a second and healed all his wounds.

In the reality where Theo used all the points to Vitality, he was like a zombie. Unless someone could burn him into ashes, he wouldn't die even if someone severed his head.

So, he used this ability to recover from his wound in exchange for his Order Energy and recovered his clothes easily since it was made of Death Armor. The glitch effect was simply meant to trick the Dark King.

Nonetheless, the Dark King couldn't see through his trick. Theo could see it from his expression alone since he looked like he was regretting recognizing Theo as his brother.

Theo smirked and said, "Alright. Let's fight again."

"You bastard! This is why humans can't be trusted!" The Dark King started cursing him.

"What's wrong? I have told you that I'm not going to use my clone to fight you, but it doesn't mean I'm not using the others." Theo smirked.

He simply used a similar trick like when he fooled the elder dwarf in a drinking contest against his clone. This time, the Dark King didn't realize that the Dark King would actually win against him if he persisted because his Order Energy was almost empty.historical

Unfortunately, the Dark King was too angry to realize it to the point he shouted, "Fine, fine. I admit defeat! I start regretting considering you my brother."

"Haha! Thankfully, you admitted defeat or I would have lost." Theo smiled brightly before releasing his Order.

"!!!" The Dark King widened his eyes in shock because he couldn't see that much energy anymore from his body. In other words, Theo had been bluffing this whole time.

"You.. How does a human call someone like you? A bastard? No, I need something more insulting." The Dark King pointed at Theo in frustration.

"Hahaha.." Theo chuckled. "To think that also works.. I guess you're not as reckless as I thought you'd be."

"Since that's the case, then let's continue the fight. It's the second round, right? I can still win in the best of three matches."

"You are a sore loser, aren't you? I'll still win though, since I will be using my clone right now. How about fighting two people with this power?" Theo smirked.

"You said you won't use your clone because you respect me."

"In the previous fight, that is." Theo stuck his tongue out.

".." The Dark King was completely speechless. He just realized that Theo had been planning everything this whole time. The reason why he started fighting him without defending himself was to make him think that he had the chance to win. That kind of thought would be destroyed when he revealed his power that reverted his body condition to full health. In other words, if he didn't choose mutual destruction, he would have won.

Theo was actually controlling where the battle would go this whole time. It wasn't like how the God of Mischief used his illusion that could simulate a fight between them, but Theo managed to create the fight he wanted.

"I really want to beat you right now." The Dark King gritted his teeth in frustration.

"Haha, I guess the end of our fight is not that great for you. It's great for me though." Theo chuckled.

"That's the exact reason why I want to hit you right now."

However, Theo's smile gradually disappeared.

"Still, I have a few things to tell you." Theo let out a sigh as his expression became serious.

"What is it? You might not want me to listen to you in this mood."

"I don't have much time left." Theo shook his head. "I'm going to meet the Frost Saint soon when everything is ready. I want you to make sure that you're near your family for a year since there'll be a great change that will happen on both sides."

"Mhm?" The Dark King furrowed his eyebrows. "You seriously do everything you want no matter the timing. You're dropping such information in this atmosphere.. Ugh, I have never been annoyed this much in my entire life."

"I'll take that as a compliment." Theo nodded. It was true. The more he annoyed others, the better he applied the God of Mischief's rules to annoy people.

"Alright. What's going to happen then?"

"I don't know the details myself. I can speculate, but I don't think any of them is correct. For now, just make sure that you're together with your family."

"I see. I understand what you're saying. Should I tell this to the saint?"

"Nah, it's fine. I'll be the one telling him."

"Alright then. Still, this is annoying. Do you know the frustration I'm feeling right now?" The Dark King gritted his teeth.

"Of course." Theo smiled. "Though, I'm not just trying to frustrate you. There are others that I have to annoy."

"Huh? Who? The saint? Your friends?"

"Who knows? Maybe the God of Mischief? The souls living in the Spatial Rift?" Theo shrugged playfully. "Though, I hope that you remember this. You can blame me for everything."

"Huh, blame you? I won't do that. Even though you're annoying, you're still my brother." The Dark King shook his head with a serious expression, not planning to change his opinion.

"Thanks." Theo smiled as he muttered inwardly, 'I hope that your opinion never changes.'
