God of Tricksters-Chapter 2106 Dragon King (2)

After that meeting, the Lightning Saint turned back to his nest, asking his subordinates to look after Theo. 𝒇r𝘦e𝘸𝒆𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝘭. 𝒄oｍ

Though, he was kind of surprised that Theo ended up meeting the Mountain King and used his Seal to meet him.

After seeing all his efforts and all the coincidences, the Lightning Saint decided to take both of them in. He thought this might be one last joy he could have before he passed away.

Ava was extremely talented and smart. And Theo had a direct influence on her achievement.

Meanwhile, Theo could only be described as a monster even from his perspective. This was the first time he saw someone who could absorb all the knowledge and apply it within a short period of time.

He even became a Transcendent Level Expert the moment he received that information.

As a former dragon king, he decided to befriend Theo and even make Ava his successor. He knew that Theo would become someone big in the future, far bigger than his grandfather. And Ava, who was directly influenced by Theo, would reach the same level as him… at least, with Theo's help.

That was why he helped Theo cross the ocean and even fought the Frost Saint.

When recalling all those memories, the Lightning Saint couldn't help but say, "Theo… With how smart you are, you should have known the reason why I'm good to you, right?"

Theo nodded with a serious expression. "Everything becomes clear the moment I know you are a former Dragon King. Although this sounds like I'm overconfident, you should have seen something in me and tried to bet on it.

"You take on Ava, who is directly connected to me as your successor, so I will help her to reach your level and even protect her. Meanwhile, the reason for you to approach me lies in the second request. You don't want me to place my eyes on the Dragon Race."

The Dragon King smiled as Theo was spot on. "That's right. Are you disappointed?"

"Not at all." Theo shook his head. "Without your help, my progress would definitely be slower. And I might not be ready to fight the slime.

"Besides, you are a man with integrity. You are a former Dragon King, who leaves your seat to someone more capable. I believe that is a wise and hard decision to make. You are prioritizing the dragon race because they are your kin. The same applies to your request.

"If I happen to win, my group will surely become the biggest threat in this world. And you don't want any mishap to befall your race. Just like how I want to protect my kin for my personal reason, I can also respect your choice, Lightning Saint."

The Lightning Saint smiled. He was satisfied with Theo's answer.

"It seems that I don't have to worry about the future." The lightning Saint paused for a moment. His breath became weaker as time passed. His blood was flowing out through his wounds.

He didn't have a lot of time left.

"I'm sure you're curious about how I know you still have the system. But I don't think it's hard to guess from your rapid progress and desperate face."

Theo didn't say anything, but he didn't deny it either. It would take others longer to notice it, but as one would expect from the wise Dragon King.

The Lightning Saint finally became serious. "The Life Authority has three big purposes. The first is to grant life to others. You can say that the reason why he has his army is because of this Authority.

"But in this situation, even if he regains the Life Authority, I don't think he will use it to produce another living creature. Of course, that Time God is reborn because of a part of this Life Authority that still remains in his body.

"The second ability is related to the life of everything. Basically, if you shoot a lightning bolt at him, the slime could grant life to that lightning bolt and make it turn around for him.

"From what I can see, you can use invisible attacks to approach it. But the problem lies in his Color Authority. If he combines both Life and Color, I'm sure you can imagine the problem.

"Last but not least, the Life Authority can increase one's life force. Basically, the slime will be able to recover rapidly. That's why you don't have much time if you want to kill the slime. You can't let him recover or everything will be too late."

Theo nodded with a serious expression. The ability was indeed troublesome. If the slime regenerated the body part to its peak, there was no more hope for them.

The Lightning Saint knew this and didn't talk too much. He only asked one thing before telling Theo to kill him. "How many more World Class Monsters do you have to kill before reaching the next rank?"

"I'm afraid I still need one more. That's why I'm going to retreat and aim for the one that the Dark Saint fights this whole time."

"I see. I guess you have planned for everything. In that case, I'll leave everything to you, Theo. Protect this world's future." The Lightning Saint smiled. It felt like he had unloaded every matter in his life. All that was left was his death.

Dying in the hand of the man he approved instead of the enemy sounded much more fulfilling for him.

That was why he couldn't help but smile when he saw Theo standing on top of his heart. He could see Theo's sad face. He must want to let out tears, but Theo refrained himself as the Dragon King was going to pass away with a smile. He couldn't ruin it.

"It's a farewell…" Theo thrust Lightning Saint's heart and used his Magic Power to destroy his heart, killing the Dragon King as painlessly as possible.

The Dragon King smiled when he felt what was happening inside his body. He was about to close his eyes. But he heard one last word that came out of Theo's mouth. And surprisingly, it was his name.

"Olrenth, O' Wise Dragon King."

It had been a long time since someone called him by his name. His smile couldn't help but become bigger as his consciousness faded away.

Theo closed his eyes with a pained look, trying his best not to shed any tears.

Meanwhile, the Magma Dragon, who witnessed the Lightning Saint's last moment, couldn't help but let out a roar.

This roar only had one message.

"I see off, the Wise Dragon King!"

The former Dragon King, known as Lightning Saint Olrenth, had passed away.
