Chapter 1522 Meaning
"More capable, huh?" Theo narrowed his eyes. It was a unique choice of words. The Frost Saint said more capable instead of stronger. In other words, the Dark King himself was actually weaker than Theo in terms of raw power, but the Dark King utilized his power far better than him. That was why he chose more capable instead of stronger.
\'What should I do now? What\'s the difference between Order and Authority? He must be using his Authority right now, but what am I missing?\' Theo muttered inwardly while observing the Frost Saint. He kept attacking the Frost Saint to see something hidden behind his power.
\'Still, why the hell should I know what the first Authority thought? Is it for me to be original? No, the fact that there are numerous people who have become Saint before me means it\'s hard to be original anymore. Yet, why do others still manage to become Authority?\'
Theo\'s expression became serious. \'There are already many references through history. The Gods have a clear difference in their power. If not for that, each of them would have equal power.
\'If my assumption is correct, those strong Gods and Goddesses in mythologies are Saints while those lesser Gods and Goddesses are Kings. What differentiates them?
\'I shouldn\'t consider only humans. There are other races or even beasts. There are Mythical Beasts… Mythical? Is it related to Mythical Rank and Supreme Rank?
\'Now that I think about it, there are seven ranks of blessing from F to S. They\'re assumed to be divided by their rank, but there is a clear distance between a normal Mythical Rank Expert and one with Order and Authority.
\'Ah, wait. If I\'m not wrong, the Lightning Dragon once told me that the classifications in ancient times were different. The classifications are Common, Nobility, Legendary, Saint, Apostle, Lesser Deity, and Supreme God. Instead of Mythical Rank… it has Supreme God, which symbolizes the Authority…
\'If that\'s the case, I shouldn\'t think about the current system. Is that why the Frost Saint asked me to think about what the first person who attained the Order and the Authority thought? Don\'t focus on the present, but look at the past.\'
When Theo was in the middle of his thoughts, the Frost Saint released a huge piece of ice above him. "What\'s wrong, Theodore Griffith? You have the nerve to think that deep when fighting against me?"
Theo gritted his teeth and raised his hand. "Shut up. I\'m thinking here."
Suddenly, the ice turned into fire and burned the remaining ice.
"!!!" The Frost Saint was amused by this power. He felt that his Freezing Power changed a little bit when the fire appeared.
Theo\'s glare was intense and the Frost Saint could feel a chill down his spine. This was similar to what Theo had always been giving whenever he felt he could come up with something.
The Frost Saint grinned and summoned another block of ice. "I\'m not going to stop. You come to me for guidance, so I\'m giving you it now. Who cares about your opinion?"
Theo looked at the ice block and pointed at his palm again. However, Theo asked a question before releasing his power. "Frost Saint. What is a KING to you?"
The Frost Saint smirked and pushed the ice block even stronger while stating, "It\'s obvious. A King is the supreme being that governs and gives \'Order\' to the people he rules."
A smile suddenly appeared in Theo\'s mind as he commanded with a strict tone. "Then, I command you, perish."
The ice block gradually disappeared as if it was following Theo\'s command and tried to erase itself. No, Theo was actually erasing the block from his own reality.
It was similar to his Attribute Removal, but instead of only the attribute, Theo removed the whole thing, whether it was the ice element or the Magic Power itself.
"It seems that you have thought something." The Frost Saint smirked. "The Dark King and the Shadow King informed me about your talent. I didn\'t believe it at first, but now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I can say it\'s interesting. Take this, Theodore Griffith."
The Frost Saint swung his club to crush him. Theo repeated his movement, cutting the club once again.
As expected, the Frost Saint immediately used his Frost Authority to freeze Theo\'s own Order, stopping the splitting process that came from his illusion.
But before Theo\'s power was depleted from the club, Theo stated with a cold tone. "Scram!"
Suddenly, a powerful shock wave spread from the club as this shock wave carried a powerful freezing wind that ended up freezing the entire area.
Still, it couldn\'t help but shock the Frost Saint because he noticed a small cut on his club. It was insignificant due to the club\'s size, and his club had been covered with marks from all sorts of attacks.
After all, unlike other Saints, he allowed his subordinates to fight against him to progress. That was why the Dark King and other Kings in his territory became strong.
The Dark King, his most trusted and strongest subordinates, had left more than a thousand sword marks on the club. However, those efforts came from numerous battles they had undergone so far.
This was the reason why the Frost Saint smiled.
"Hahaha! Interesting." The Frost Saint smirked. "There are 1670 sword marks left by the Dark King. Do you think you can surpass it?"
"Shut up, Frost Saint." Theo also smirked. He had numerous thoughts in his mind. Although he couldn\'t connect all of them yet, he felt there was something that could connect them.
And this fight would help him connect them. That was why even Theo became a bit more excited because he might be able to find the secret to Authority in this fight.
"Even though you are weak, your words are truly nasty."
"I am not your subordinate after all." Theo pointed at the club and said, "I have decided. In this fight, I\'m going to cut that club of yours. Don\'t blame me if that happens."
"Try it if you can."
