Chapter 1350: Absolute Ruler

Chapter 1350: Absolute Ruler

"No. It's not just two layers of illusion." Theo gritted his teeth.

A few moments ago, when he was trapped within that darkness, Theo realized a few missing links as soon as he used Blink. If he truly fell, the Blink could allow him to reach the floor since the distance wasn't that far.

Yet, it was useless to use Blink because he couldn't reach them anymore.

That was why he was convinced that he was still within the illusion even though he had been trying to dispel this illusion with his ability.

It was then he realized there were separate illusions to create this illusion. The first one was the floor. The floor itself was a real illusion floor that when they disappeared, it looked like he had just hit a real trap that would lead him to a pitfall with spikes at the bottom.

The second illusion was in reality itself. Instead of a huge realm, the wall and the floor were actually a real thing. They were just floors and walls that were painted the darkest black.

After that, the third illusion was sense manipulation. Instead of making him think he was falling down, the God of Mischief utilized his power to make him behave like he was using a binocular but the other way around.

And the fourth illusion was the bridge he made himself. By using that bridge, Theo was convinced that he was still in reality. If the God of Mischief wanted it, the bridge would never appear.

"Instead of using a single illusion to trap someone, the God of Mischief used separate illusions so that when Theo removed one of them, he still had three remaining illusions that he needed to resolve.

Upon this realization, Theo escaped from all of them immediately.

'Terrifying indeed. How many layers can he actually create? And the fact that each illusion needs to be maintained separately and matched with other illusions has increased this ability's level to an unprecedented level.

'Even the Mind Elder only used one layer of illusion.

But before Theo continued, he couldn't help but smirk excitedly. "Ah! I take back what I said earlier. It's not four layers, it's five! And the last one is…"

Theo stomped the ground.

Suddenly, numerous spikes appeared around the God of Mischief, trying to impale him.

At the same time, Theo used his blink, teleporting in the opposite direction. There was supposed to be nothing, but when Theo swung his sword, he heard a clicking sound.

Another throne suddenly appeared with the God of Mischief leaning to the right side to avoid all these spikes. And the clicking sound appeared due to the clash between Theo's sword and the spike.

Yes, when Theo stomped the ground, he summoned those spikes with the illusion. But his target wasn't the throne in front of him but the one in the back.

"Impressive." The God of Mischief smiled, praising Theo wholeheartedly.

"The fifth illusion… it's your Illusion Reflection… Instead of me and my power, you use this power on yourself, allowing you to hide your real body behind me this whole time." Theo smirked as he felt good for discovering the real God of Mischief.

He had been tricked this whole time, but at the same time, this action also made him lose the challenge.

"But don't forget that…" The God of Mischief pointed at the floor. "This is the throne. You've lost."

"No, it's my win." Theo smirked as Clone Theo summoned the exact copy of the fake God of Mischief on the floor.

When the God of Mischief saw it, he soon realized what Theo meant. "You've truly learned so much."

"I only told you that I would drag you out of that throne, not this one." Theo stuck his tongue out.

"If that's the case, let's take this to a whole new level, shall we?" The God of Mischief smirked.

"Huh?!" Theo didn't know why but his sense was tingling as if he knew that the God of Mischief was planning to do something dangerous.

"Still, you are wrong, Theo. It's not five, but six!" Loki was the one sticking out his tongue now.

"Wha—" Theo suddenly saw that the entire hall gradually changed as if it was coming from a flip book. The ceiling, the wall, and even the floor were folded on top of each other before a new skin came out from another folded part.

When he realized what was happening, Theo glanced to the right and saw the floor. In other words, he was actually standing on the wall as if he was on the floor.

"This is…" Theo leaped back but felt surprised that he didn't fall down. Even though he felt that the gravity was pointing to the floor, his feet surprisingly stuck on the wall and his body refused to go to the floor.

He turned to Loki and saw him walking on the wall easily as though he didn't feel the gravity.

"My sense is…" Theo looked at his hands, trying to figure out what had truly happened.

Loki had truly messed up his sense by using this power. But it became even more confusing when the entire room was shaking.

It took Theo a split second to realize that he was actually in the ceiling.

"This is…" Theo sucked a cold breath. Even though his hair, clothes, and everything he wore was falling to the ground, his body and sense thought the ceiling was actually the floor and kept sticking to it. Even if he jumped, he would fall back to the ceiling instead of the floor.

"I have told you, right? It's not five layers, it's six." The God of Mischief smirked.

"…" Theo couldn't reply to him as he realized that the sixth illusion was actually the greatest. Yes, the sixth illusion was actually the hall itself. This grand hall was an illusion that the God of Mischief could control as he liked, including gravity.

In this illusion, common sense couldn't be applied because the God of Mischief was the ruler of this sixth illusion.

"This is what I want to teach you, Theo." The God of Mischief smiled as Theo could finally see the skill description. "The ability I created to fight against those beings in the higher dimension."

Skill: Absolute Ruler (???)

Effect: Becoming the absolute ruler of the illusion, giving the authority to govern all laws of physics inside the illusion.
