Chapter 1773 Choosing Which Will Become Reality And Illusion

"!!!" The dragon instantly spun his body while releasing another breath. "You're annoying. If you are that fixated on Theo to the point you're stopping me, I'm going to kill you right here, right now!"

The dragon thought he had enough. This time, he was going to fight the World Tree for real.

The three dragon heads charged the magma again in their throat, ready to release it.

The World Tree was confused because he hadn't done or seen anything. In other words, whatever the dragon experienced was completely an illusion.

Once again, the World Tree trembled, realizing the depth of Theo's plan. Theo turned out to be pitting them against each other this whole time. He knew the dragon's temper perfectly and used it to his advantage.

The World Tree wanted to stop him, but the dragon had released its magma breath again.

The World Tree used his branches to catch these magma balls. However, the magma breath was never the dragon's trump card.

Since he already hated the World Tree to the bone, he fell to the ground and shouted, "Magma World."

The ground began to vibrate as if the magma underneath the ground started intruding to the layer of rocks on top of them and continued making their way to the surface.

Theo couldn't help but be amazed by the dragon's power. The dragon might have been using either his body or the magma breath this whole time, but the dragon himself hadn't fully utilized his power.

His true power was the magma itself. As long as he controlled the magma, he could even create a nature disaster like the previous volcanic eruption.

Theo narrowed his eyes, observing the dragon. He felt a bit enlightened by what he saw.

'So, the power of nature… Now that I think about it, I haven't touched anything about nature itself. If I remember correctly, the Heavenly Sovereign used his power to govern the elements in nature.

'The dragon is doing the same to create a natural disaster. Even the Wind Emperor could create a huge tornado.

'Meanwhile, what have I done with my three big laws? The first law is copying nature, the second law changes nature, while the third law inverts nature. None of my laws are actually governing nature.

'If that's the case, can I do something to govern nature? My ability is not like this magma dragon, the Heavenly Sovereign's Elements Authority, or the Wind Emperor's Wind Authority… My ability relies on the Reality Authority.

'In that reality, what is nature to me? Is it the elements in the environment around me?' Theo contemplated, wondering if he could find the answer. 'No, wait. The nature of my reality is the reality itself.

'If I want to rule over reality then…Ah!'

A smile suddenly appeared on Theo's face. He had come to another realization. He couldn't help but recall all the battles he had against Human Saints or Monster Saints.

They all had experience governing nature itself. And since his nature was the reality itself, if he wanted to do the same thing as them, he simply had to choose which was the reality and which was the illusion.

'That's right. Loki has the World Re-Creation to create a world where he fuses both reality and illusion. If he doesn't will it, the World Re-Creation will turn into a complete illusion like when he fought me. If he wants to, the World Re-Creation could insert a bit of reality to the mix, making it more believable.'

Theo looked at the fight between the dragon and the World Tree while thinking, 'Yeah. Continue that way.'

Since they were too occupied with each other, Theo started gathering his thoughts into this one skill he had just created to boost the World Re-Creation's power that matched his own characteristic. In other words, he was trying to make Loki's skill his own.

As soon as he completed the thought, Theo clapped his hands, releasing the World Re-Creation.

Because of the new power up, the Magic Power fluctuation became so strong that it startled both the dragon and the World Tree.

"Hmm?" Both of them locked their eyes on the dragon's stomach.

They certainly felt something from that crack. And the only person who could do something like that was Theo.

It just proved what the World Tree said about Theo hiding inside the crack.

"He's truly inside your skin!" The World Tree released his roots again, trying to grasp the dragon. "Standstill so that I can bring that human out!"

The dragon gritted his teeth and raised his claws, grabbing the particular skin and pulling it apart.

"Aaaahhhh!" The dragon screamed while looking at the skin.

"What? You rip your skin apart?" The World Tree was surprised that the dragon would injure himself like this.

However, the dragon showed no mercy and crushed the skin with his strength as if he was taking all the blame. Unfortunately for him, the moment the skin was crushed into pieces, there was simply no Theo.

"There is no Theodore Griffith?" The dragon narrowed his eyes. All three heads were searching frantically, but to no avail.

The World Tree, on the other hand, warned him. "He has teleportation ability. He must have teleported to another skin."

The dragon trembled, realizing he might continue this until all his skin was destroyed. However, there was one more solution to this problem.

"I have my way of doing this!" The dragon stood on the ground and smacked the ground. Suddenly, the magma that had yet to come out from the ground finally broke through the last layer of earth and reached the surface.

The magma suddenly flowed up with a single wave of the dragon's hand before it was forming a ball that would surround him.

"I'm going to use this ability to coat the magma all over my body so that he has no choice but to come out!" The dragon's plan was clever this time.

Unfortunately for him, Theo never appeared. They didn't know where Theo was, but he was certainly near them.

And Theo was actually smiling as if he was enjoying how he played those two like marionettes.

'That's right. Continue… I'll choose which one is the reality and which one is the illusion. If both of you don't die, it shall become an illusion. But if both of you die here, it shall become the reality.'
