Chapter 1082 Synergy

Name:God of Tricksters Author:Fixten
Chapter 1082 Synergy  The one who answered was Hel. She stepped forward and said, "Yes. It's alright to absorb energy. However, you need to differentiate the energy. I'm pretty sure that you already know there is a different kind of energy, right?

"The first being the pure Magic Power. Then, there is Order's Unique Energy. If we are continuing with the others, we can include the affinities and Covenant Seal. They're different types of energy too."

"Yes." Theo nodded with a serious expression.

"The cause of your current behavior is the synergy between different kinds of energy."

"Synergy…" Theo looked down, falling into deep thought. "Like a symbiotic relationship?"

Hel nodded and continued, "Similar to that. To put it simply, there are four types of synergy. Harmony, Neutral, Segregated, and Incompatible.

"Harmony is where two Orders can work mutually, and their relationship is so close that they're usually paired up with one another. The best example of this is when the people called Space-Time instead of Space and Time. I'm sure the scientists make both Space and Time related…

"As for Neutral Synergy, the two Orders can work with each other, but there are strict rules or side effects when working on it. For example—!" Before she finished her words, the God of Mischief grabbed Hel's hand and stopped her.

When their eyes intertwined, Hel realized what he wanted and nodded her head. "In that case, it's better to show you first."

Theo's attention soon shifted to the God of Mischief.

The God of Mischief then turned to Fenrir and poured his energy into him.

Fenrir also did the same before a translucent beast appeared behind them. The beast looked like Fenrir, but it was excluding a fierce power from its body.

The beast approached Theo's carefully while showing such an intense gaze as if he wanted to prey upon him.

"This is…" Theo felt the beast gradually become bigger and bigger as if he overwhelmed him with his aura alone. However, deep in his heart, he realized it wasn't the beast growing in size, it was him becoming smaller.

When one felt intense pressure, usually from killing intent or ferocious gaze like this, they would feel small compared to the beast and be frozen in fear.

Before he could say anything, a freezing hand suddenly grabbed his shoulder, making his body tremble.

The touch was so cold that he almost mistook it for ice. When he turned around to see who had touched him, a sharp object suddenly appeared, touching his neck directly as if wanting to cut him.

"!!!"

The atmosphere became cold. The hair on his hand rose as another presence came to life.

The figure was more than fifteen feet tall, holding a scythe and placing it on Theo's neck. The feeling was slightly different from Hel's killing intent because this one was directly influencing his heart, making his life flash before his eyes.

"This…" Theo couldn't help but release his Magic Power, trying to make them back down. But the moment his Magic Power touched them, they disappeared without a trace.

Even the feeling vanished as if nothing had happened, showing that it was just an illusion.

However, the intense gaze from the beast that excluded such pressure and the feeling of death that made him see his memories shocked him to the core.

Theo looked at the God of Mischief and said, "That is… Neutral Synergy."

"I was simply using the synergy between my Illusion Order and his Beast Order together with her Death Order." The God of Mischief closed his eyes with a smile, finishing his presentation.

Hel was the one continuing the explanation. "Anyway, that's the Neutral Synergy. Depending on how you use it, the power can be as strong as the Harmony, but it has a side effect. The illusion can't be maintained for long because it uses a huge amount of energy. Although he could do it easily, it was in the past. Your energy wasn't enough to use such a technique continuously.

"You can even think of Fire and Ice for this Synergy… They're the opposite of each other, but they can somehow work hand in hand if you use them correctly.

"Third, the Segregated is simply like oil and water. They're two opposite Orders that don't have any Synergy at all… There is someone missing, right? That's the reason."

Theo nodded with a serious expression, knowing she was mentioning Jormungand. Since his Order couldn't have any Synergy with them, there was no need to summon him here.

"Last but not least, Incompatible! This is the worst Synergy because you will just make a conflict with each other. This Synergy is similar to Fire and Water. Different from Fire and Ice, this Synergy is only trying to destroy each other. Fire wants to evaporate the water while the water wants to put out the fire.

"Do you understand the difference between Synergies now?"

Theo nodded with a serious expression. "Though, I have one question. If I assume my current behavior is due to the Synergy, does that mean the Queen of Destiny was the cause?"

"Let me answer it with another question. What kind of Synergy do you think you have with the Destiny Order?"

Theo thought for a moment. "Neutral?"

"Exactly. She didn't mean harm to you because she thought you could handle the side effects… To be honest, if you manage to master the third stage, you should be able to take care of the side effects.

"After all, you have understood the difference between Illusion and Reality. Then, how is it related to the Destiny Order?

"You'd heard her explanation. Destiny Order allowed her to catch a glimpse of the numerous possibilities.

"If you just asked for the divination, it wouldn't have any side effects. It became a different case when she poured the energy into your Order.

"It caused a Synergy without you knowing it, causing both the Reality Order and Destiny Order to overlap.

"The Destiny Order showed those possibilities while your Reality Order turned those possibilities into reality. However, you are living in this reality right now. That's why all those possibilities are coming to reality in the form of you.

"In other words, you are like this because you are currently merged with all the Theos in those numerous possibilities."
