God of Tricksters

"Here they come." Theo smiled and lowered his hand, giving a signal for Jeff.

Jeff immediately disappeared as he was planting the army just to trick the enemies.

Ergene narrowed her eyes. "The enemies are not that much. Is this it?"

"Yes. Wait for my signal." Theo confirmed it as the battle between him, and Ergene was about to start.

"Got it." Ergene nodded.

Soon, they could see two hundred people marching forward while scattering in the area to scout them.

"Still, a battle like this is weird. In the past, the war didn't require too many personnel since we could use technologies." Ergene narrowed her eyes.

"Well, that's because an individual might is better than a gun except for a cannon they're bringing right now. That's why the warfare has returned to the primordial one. Isn't your blessing related to this style of warfare?"

"That's true. Still, I want to say this." Ergene paused for a moment as if she was pondering whether to say it or not. "Bolhom Family, this challenge… You're truly one of a kind. Even if I win, I shall respect you as my equal from today."

Theo smiled and raised his hands. Suddenly, numerous swords appeared on top of him as he released them to shoot the enemies down. This time, the sword didn't contain Fire Energy which confused the people again.

'Mhm? There's no element? Isn't his element fire? No, he must be a unique individual that can separate his own Magic Power and Element, making an illusion that he can wield both fire element and one without affinity.' Ergene thought while glancing at Theo.

At the same time, Nella started doubting herself again. 'Theo is an illusionist. Can he actually create a realistic flame with his illusion? No, even the Mind Elder can't do it… According to Uncle Ray, the Mind Elder has something far more powerful than Five Aspects. Yet, he can't do something like that.

'But then, who is Joker? I'm confused right now. What is his ability?' Nella frowned, wanting to know the answer.

While they were confused, Theo's swords had been raining the enemies down. However, Theo did something special for the swords.

"This is…" Ergene was amused when she realized what Theo had done. The swords were actually aiming at the people at the edge, pushing them to the center so all two hundred people could gather in the center.

However, the people on the lower ground obviously couldn't see this kind of detail. They only focused on one thing.

"They're attacking us."

"Don't worry. It's only the Supreme Rank Expert."

"We need to watch out for the Mythical Rank Expert. If she's coming, we need to group up to stop her. Even if she's strong, she can't target all of us at the same time."

"That's right. We can also block her together."

"But what about the people at Hero Rank or lower? They're not strong enough to handle her."

"Just send them to that Supreme Rank Expert. The principle is the same. It won't be that easy for the Supreme Rank Expert to handle multiple Hero Rank Experts because they can attack and block together."

"The fact that they find us and attack us means they know our identity. Obviously, the military has moved as well. We need the main group to handle the military. That's why we need to deal with these two here. We'll exhaust their energy and attack them at every single opportunity. Even if they're colossal monsters, they will be dead after losing so much blood."

The enemies also had some understanding of the situation. Even though they were just a random bunch that joined the Black Snake Group, they still had gained enough knowledge to assess their situation, especially those Supreme Rank Experts who had experienced more battles.

"If the situation is dire, we'll also ask for the main group to reinforce us or attack them with their cannon. Anyway, prepare for battle. There are only two enemies."

"Hoo!"

They started shouting, trying to boost their morale. However, weird things started happening to them.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"We need to spread a bit more. If we can pass them, we will be able to create a distraction."

"That's right. We need to spread more!"

People started coming from the right side, closing to the middle group. Not long after, the left side also experienced the same situation.

With only five hundred feet separating them, they couldn't do anything more.

It was at this time numerous people began to appear.

"Aaahhhh!"

"What's that?"

A bunch of people suddenly started emerging at the top of the small hill, revealing themselves.

"There are more people?! How many are there?"

"No, how many people are hiding behind that hill? There must be more people hiding by using the difference of our elevation."

But before the enemies could respond, the confusion became bigger when they heard another shout coming from the sides.

"There are also people from the right."

"Enemies are spotted on the left."

"Their number is around fifty!"

"What? With two sides… that's already a hundred people. And with the addition of the people on top of the hill along with that Mythical Rank Expert, I am afraid…"

They started panicking because the number might match their number. And with Ergene controlling the army, the enemy could easily destroy them.

"We need to ask for reinforcement from the main group!"

"That's right. They should bring more Mythical Rank Experts in our way!"

"Hurry up!"

They started to move according to some instructions, trying to save themselves.

However, Theo dropped another bomb when he called Felix and Chris to the front.

When they saw another two Mythical Rank Experts, their faces became pale.

"Two more…"

"What is this…"

"Are we going to die?"

"It's impossible for two hundred of us with two-thirds of us being a Hero Rank or lower…"

On the contrary, Theo smiled as he raised his hand, creating a single line in a certain direction. "I guess this is it."

"Felix, Chris. Cut through in this direction. This should split the enemies. Just kill all the people on this line and continue forward, becoming our wall that stops their reinforcement, especially the Mythical Rank Experts from their side. Me and Ergene will handle the rest." Theo gave his order.

"Got it." Felix nodded.

"In that case, let's do it, shall we?" Theo glanced at Ergene.

"Okay. The battle is on."

"Let's go." Theo smirked as he jumped forward. Ergene, Felix, and Chris also did the same, matching their speed.
