God of Tricksters

Chapter 457 - Death’s Avatar

[Underworld Dominion: Death Avatar (Activated)]

"!!!" The mummy king halted and drew a long gasp, staring at the Death Avatar. "How… How is this possible? A personification of Death…"

Even Nadia had no words for this avatar. She raised her head and looked at those purple eyes hiding beneath the mask and felt chills down her spine. "He…"

Every single person in the surroundings was also alarmed by this avatar's sudden appearance.

Nart instinctively took a step back when he saw the avatar and soon realized what he had done. He muttered inwardly, 'Seriously? Did I take a step back just by looking at it? Have I gone senile?'

Alea had a bigger reaction as her hands started shaking. Strength began to leave her body as she saw the person who created such a feeling.

Theo.

She clutched her heart and began gasping for air.

There was one thought fluttering in her mind.

'No… No, don't go… I can't reach you anymore.'

Ellen and Phyrill had an even bigger reaction than Alea as they didn't have the courage Alea possessed from her blessing. They had the same expressions as any other people in the area: fear and respect.

The mummies somehow felt that power of Death and lowered their arms. If the people were not shocked by the avatar, they would see the mummies dropping to their knees.

Meanwhile, the wolves were glaring at Theo's Death Avatar with their feet shaking and their bodies swaying left and right. It took everything for them to not run in fear.

No one realized the fact Theo's skill was an S Rank Skill. In other words, it was a Divine Skill. There was no way they could withstand this power even when the majority of its power had been sealed.

Only those in the Supreme Rank managed to receive it completely.

Theo, on the contrary, felt nothing from this avatar, not realizing Ava was shivering in fear from this avatar alone.

Before Theo asked any questions, he found another notification.

[You have one shot. Put everything you get and kill the mummy. Go!]

Seeing the message, Theo quickly raised his spear and charged toward the mummy king.

Because of his intention, the mummy was the first to react.

"He wants to kill me…" The mummy king gritted his teeth. He never thought Theo could manifest the power of Death to this degree. However, he also felt the power didn't come from Osiris as there was no connection between them present earlier.

With his belief in the Great God Osiris, the mummy king became hostile to Theo. "Blasphemy."

Nadia reacted a second too late as Theo had already arrived in front of the mummy king.

Theo poured all his strength from External Flow, Materialization, Telekinesis, and Cannon Blast. He waved his spear down in order to smash the mummy king from top to bottom, killing him.

On the other hand, the mummy king formed a shield made of black-colored energy. Compared to the previous shield boosted by the crown, this shield was nothing. Even so, Theo was still two hundred levels behind the mummy, so he knew his attack wouldn't be able to kill the mummy king.

Before changing his stance, another notification appeared.

[Continue.]

Theo was startled but chose to believe this instruction. He used all his strength to hit the shield.

The assistance from the Goddess of Death had finally arrived when the skill was utilized.

[Death Avatar's First Authority, Death Eyes.]

The avatar's left eye suddenly glowed as if a purple flame burned its eye. Meanwhile, Theo experienced the same but with his right eye.

The two synchronized as a purple-colored flash appeared for a split second before vanishing without a trace.

But in that instant, everyone experienced the same thing.

They were all transported to another place.

When they looked down, they saw them standing on top of red-colored water, which was supposed to be blood.

When they turned around, they could only see darkness on the horizon.

When they raised their heads, dim red light shone behind black clouds.

Nadia, Nart, the wolf king, and the mummy king were the first to wake up from this illusion and tried to free themselves.

Unfortunately for the mummy king, Theo, who still maintained his sanity, had slipped past his shield and struck him in the head.

"Ha!" Theo shouted on top of his lungs to boost his strength or spirit a little bit.

The energy from around his spear bent the head in an instant as Theo continued doing it, crushing the head and body.

The spear ripped it apart and the two sides that had yet to be crushed fell to the ground as Theo panted.

"Ha… Ha…" Theo couldn't believe what he had just seen. There was no way he could kill the mummy king this easily. The only answer to his doubt was the avatar behind him.

Nadia and Nart had returned and saw Theo crushing the mummy king effortlessly. To her surprise, Nadia's body had moved several feet away from Theo despite her entering the illusion as well.

It was the result of her training and level that made such a thing possible. Still, it didn't diminish the shock in her heart.

Little did they know, Theo was as confused as them. He turned around and looked at the avatar while getting several notifications.
