Chapter 1116 Questioned Theo was stupefied when he saw the last message. The God of Mischief had once told him that he suppressed the Griffith Family's Ancestor so that he couldn't bless him.
The God of Mischief had also done all sorts of preparation to fight against the end of time. Theo was his biggest card in tackling the end of time as well as the higher being.
Yet, Theo accepted a foreign power that could potentially harm him. The Queen of Destiny wasn't even his friend or ally, but Theo still allowed her to give something that he didn't understand perfectly. It might be a beneficial gift for him, but it could also be a time bomb.
That was why the God of Mischief's anger was justified.
Even Theo could see the true anger in him. Despite having no voice or image, he felt chills down his spine to the point his body shuddered.
He clutched his fists so hard that they almost bled. There was a desire to call the God of Mischief out for not teaching him, but the latter had explained the reason why he refrained himself from teaching anything about Orders.
When he thought about it, he finally understood the real meaning behind his words.
'I see. I was a goddamn fool.' Theo gritted his teeth. 'Have I ever questioned all the things other people taught me? How about I question the basics of the Five Aspects that Nina taught me? How about the Materialization power that came from my father?
'What if they were wrong? That knowledge, they think it's the right knowledge… At least for them. But who knows the actual truth? What if the world judges it's not the correct form? What if an Authority comes and tells me, 'It's wrong?'
'The answer is subjective. If it's right for them, it might be wrong for me. It's alright to receive some knowledge, but never think it's right… It will only be right if I deem them to be correct.
'In the end, I should sort everything that comes to me, whether it's knowledge, technique, or power. I shouldn't accept everything and just do it.
'I will learn them, examine them, and judge them. It's impossible for a normal person to do it, but I'm good at learning. It will take slightly longer, but it will be something unique to only me.'
Theo's expression became calm. When he raised his head, he saw Isaac and Felix standing a bit far away from him, talking to each other. It seemed Isaac was telling Felix about what happened on the island.
He thought Theo was like this because he lost control over his power.
After a while, Theo took a few deep breaths to calm his heart. Now that he finally understood that the possibility still existed, he knew he should visit the pianist.
At the same time, he still couldn't see how far ahead the God of Mischief could see.
The God of Mischief knew the Queen of Destiny's character and used that illusion to make her believe this was a test for that answer. She never realized she was trapped inside an illusion.
At the same time, he knew Theo would arrive at the same conclusion because he simply thought too much. That was why both of them were completely tricked by this man, Loki.
'Now that I think about it, he's truly a scary man…' Theo's lips curved as his heart started getting excited. 'The God of Mischief is sticking to me, so he knows what I do and think… Those people in the higher dimension also stick like this, knowing everything we do and think.
'This is the preparation and trial that the God of Mischief has given to me.' Theo clenched his fists and smiled. 'Fine by me. I'm going to defeat you first. If I can't even defeat the God of Mischief, there's no way for me to contend with those from the higher dimension.'
Theo felt the challenge and understood what he needed to do.
"Fu…" Theo let out a deep sigh before walking toward Isaac and Felix. "Let's go to the pianist."
Isaac wanted to check his condition, but Theo's expression was so serious that it stopped the words from coming out of his mouth.
'What is happening to him again? I have never understood his changes. Is this related to the Queen of Destiny? But I still didn't see any fluctuation… I don't know what I should do…' Isaac thought, wondering if Theo would become a cold-blooded leader like many leaders in this world.
Still, Isaac hoped nothing would change in the future. The current him was perfect to be a leader. He was merciless to the enemy and warm to his friends.
Theo wasn't planning to be cold. He just had a lot of thoughts to sort.
However, none of them knew what Theo thought because Theo rarely revealed anything about him.
In the end, the group reached the next state without a single word being spoken.
After a few hours, they found a huge mansion far away from any house. Unlike Jeff, Christopher wasn't someone who had so much time to paint the entire building.
Instead, Christopher used all that time to practice his skill.
From the outside, the harmonious melody was ringing in their ears.
"This is…" Isaac narrowed his eyes, looking at the Magic Power inside the building. "Every time it beats, the Magic Power fluctuates? Does he use his power when playing his piano? This energy… somehow calms my mind."
Isaac examined the Magic Power fluctuations while Felix raised his sword, feeling shaken by this melody.
A butler soon came out of the mansion and politely greeted them.
"Joker, correct? My master has been waiting for you. It's just…" He glanced at Felix as well as Theo's bracelet and said, "I would like it if you could leave all your weapons here."
Theo remained quiet and took off his bracelet, handing it to the butler. Since his boss had done it, Felix also gave his sword.
After the butler made sure there were no hidden weapons, they finally entered the building.
But the moment the door of the mansion was opened, intense energy rushed out of the mansion and tried to push them back.
