Chapter 815 - Understanding (1/2)
After reminiscing about his past, Theo laid down on the bed. Before sleeping, he summoned his Death Avatar.
Because of the room size, the Death Avatar needed to crawl and even occupied the living room and other bedrooms next to him, making sure he wasn't disturbing other people in the hotel.
Theo then used his Death Avatar to cast Death Eyes to himself before letting go of his consciousness, drifting into his dream.
Suddenly, he entered the realm where Hel tortured him.
”Hmm?” Theo frowned when feeling the chilling wind that came out of nowhere. He looked at the blood sea underneath him and raised his foot, finding that the blood didn't stick on his shoe.
He immediately imagined the blood smearing the shoe, and the latter immediately turned red.
”Oh?” Theo nodded, satisfied. ”I think this is the first time I've observed this place peacefully.”
Theo looked around and found no one near him.
”I've learned about killing intent, but I don't know anything about Death itself. What I've been influencing my enemy this whole time is none other than killing intent. That ferocious intent is not comparable to what she showed me.
”In fact, this realm was only a replica of her own. Then again… If I learn about Death, will I be influenced by its power? I mean, my Order might be related to it, right? Although it's powerful, I don't think I can display the real might of Death.
”After all, my specialty belongs elsewhere. It feels like I'm not myself…” Theo fell silent before coming to a realization from his last sentence. ”I'm not myself…
”Now that I think about it, Death Authority and Illusion Authority… Aren't they basically describing themselves?
”There was also Moon Rabbit getting the Moonlight Order. I met with the Shadow Order too, and that guy was covered with black-colored flame like that of a burning shadow. As for the mountain king… He was a dwarf, so it's kinda related one way or another.
”Last but not least, there was the Darkness Order who was shrouded by something black or dark. Is the reason why Order will naturally come to oneself because it's basically describing our existence?
”Wait a minute. Does the world actually choose us because that's our existence? In that case, the Order is related to my very existence. What word can describe me? Who am I? What is my power?
”Maybe if I can answer all these questions, I can get my own Order? But then again, how do I get the Order? Ava told me that it would come to me naturally, but Avarice shouldn't be someone that irresponsible. She must have done something to Ava so that she could receive her own Order.
”In other words, my guess is right, but it's not completed. There is a missing part and that missing part… I can only get it from the dragon.” Theo fell silent for a moment and remembered the three conditions the God of Mischief had placed on him in the past.
”I need to follow several conditions. First, I need to know why I'm doing this along with the other party's purpose. I need this to manipulate the conversation.
”Second, I need to be known by many, so they can understand I'm that kind of person. On the outside, I have been a bright and righteous person. However, behind the scenes, I'm doing everything with schemes, making those who try to investigate my background fear me.
