God of Tricksters-Novel

Chapter 808 - Death Avatar

The next day.

Theo was sitting inside the Cubicar with his eyes closed. He had reached level 500 and got called by Hel. And due to them not being in a dungeon, Theo stayed inside the Cubicar since they could carry him anywhere without a problem while giving more protection with the help of the Cubicar's barriers.

Meanwhile, Agata, Ava, and Maya stood outside, protecting the Cubicar.

"There is no monster within three hundred feet. And since we're surrounded by the trees, there should be no monster coming at us." Maya stated while glancing at the radar.

"Got it. Just get prepared…" Agata nodded with a serious expression.

"I wonder if Theo will get that power again…" Ava looked up, recalling the power Theo used in order to kill a Supreme Rank Monster when he was still a weak Hero Rank Expert.

"What power?"

"I'm not very sure. That power is simply far too good…" Ava shook her head. "Well, probably. I'm going to see whether it's that power again or not."

"In any case, our task is the same. Protect Theo until he's done."

"Yeah."

While they were guarding the Cubicar, Theo's consciousness had arrived in the valley where he usually met the others.

This time, only Hel was standing before him. There was no sight of Fenrir, Jormungand, or even Loki.

Theo looked around while raising his hands, checking his body condition. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with his body, he asked, "Ehm… Are you here alone?"

"Yep," Hel answered Theo coolly before raising four fingers. "I'm going to explain four things to you. And if you have any questions, just ask me after the explanation, okay?"

"Got it." Theo acknowledged her instruction.

"First of all, I'm going to give you my Underworld Dominion Skill to you in the form of Death Avatar. The people in your world called this a Skill Verse. So, I'm pretty sure it will be good for you.

"Also, you should know the potential of this skill, right?" Hel smirked, feeling proud of her own power.

"Yes. It's an S Rank Skill… Or it can be said to be a Divine Skill."

"Good. I won't be explaining how to use it. You just need to know that I'll be watching you. If the result is not satisfactory, I'll send you back in the torture chamber."

"Ehm, sure. Bring me back there." Theo somehow wanted to be killed again since that experience indeed brought so many benefits.

"Kid, are you…" Hel coughed once while staring at Theo with a weird smile.

"I'm not a masochist. I'm just seeking that power…" Theo shook his head.

"Anyway, you don't need to ask me if you want to experience Death again. Your Death Avatar has the ability to do that, and you can only invoke that power when you're at the most vulnerable moment. In other words, at your sleep. You'll dream of getting butchered, and I believe that's the perfect time for you to learn more about Death."

"Understood."

"Also, I'm going to open the second skill of the Death Avatar, called Underworld Body. Thanks to the power of the Death Armor, I have enough power to open that skill. However, the rest will be up to you."

"Thank you very much." Theo politely bowed his head.

"That's the first thing… Well, when you wake up, you'll see the skill. I'm not going to show it here. Just remember this one. My Underworld Dominion is the epitome of Awareness."

"I can somehow understand that. The Death Eyes skill alone shows the connection between the skill and Vision. I assume each of your skills is connected to a certain sense. Am I wrong?"

"No, you're not wrong. Since you already know, I don't have to explain it to you, let alone worry about your poor skill." Hel shrugged.

"Now that I think about it, you said that you can use your power to unlock the skill… How is that connected? I mean, what's the connection between ranking up a skill and Skill Cards." Theo asked, realizing he never thought about the principle of ranking up skill this whole time.

He had been taking this ability for granted.

"I'll answer that later."

"Got it. We should move on to the second thing then." Theo nodded without hesitation.

"Alright. What skill will you remove to get my Underworld Dominion Skill?"

"What skill…" Theo frowned and looked down. "The skills I received from my blessing are Blink, Clone, Metamorphosis, and Telekinesis. All of them are very useful to me, so I'm not planning to change them.

"And Illusion Manipulation is my current strongest strength in a way, along with Magic Augmentation and Magic Power Expansion.

"This leaves Illusion Construct, Illusion Destruction, and Magic Bullet. I think I can somehow replace the Illusion Construct since I can replicate this skill with Illusion Manipulation and Sense of Touch and Vision.

"As for Illusion Destruction, I still have some use for this skill later. And Magic Bullets are basically the skill that I have used the most since it's the most versatile skill to me." Theo explained his analysis with a serious expression.

"Then, it's the Illusion Construct." Hel nodded with a serious expression. "Hence, this is the second thing I want to say to you. Get ready to abandon the Magic Bullet skill."

"Eh?" Theo was taken aback by her suggestion.

"Instead of using Magic Bullet skill, you should use your Control." She raised her hand and formed a sword before turning it into a shield. "I'm sure you know about this, but your Magic Power and Control alone can create more Magic Bullets than your skill, right?"

"Yeah. But I still need the Magic Bullet for some moves like that God Killing Spear."

"That's it." She smiled. "You're too reliant on a weak skill. Instead of that, you should learn something like this."

She raised her hand and formed a big spear on top of her head, replicating Theo's God Killing Spear. "You should just make that one purely with your own Magic Power… No need for Magic Bullet. Also, make sure you can form multiple weapons or structures with your own Magic Power."

"But Magic Bullet strengthens the God Killing Spear…" Theo shook his head, denying her idea.

"Yeah, but you now have Death Avatar." She shrugged.

"Death Avatar…" Theo frowned before coming to a realization. There was one figure coming into his mind.

It was Leonardo. If he imagined his Death Avatar to be the same as Leonardo's King, he could make Death Avatar wield something.

"I see. So that's how it is…" Theo closed his eyes for a moment, falling into deep thought.
