God of Tricksters

"A King Class Monster, two transcendent Mythical Rank Experts, and a master at the same level but has a clone with the same power… Are you kidding me…" Airvans trembled as he finally saw the trump card that Theo had been holding up until now.

Unlike the ways monsters talk, humans also had their own terms in calling Kings and Saints. For them, those who had surpassed the limit of Mythical Rank Expert and gained absolute power were called transcendent.

Still, Airvans only had nineteen Mythical Rank Experts and two transcendent experts to fight Theo's group. Although they were lesser in number, it was clear that Theo could overwhelm them easily. After all, Theo only had to kill Airvans by joining hands with Ava. With those two overwhelming powers, they could turn around the situation easily.

Ruth and Felix would surely defeat the rest of the Mythical Rank Experts in the meantime.

In other words, as long as there wasn't anyone that could stop Theo or Ava personally, the battle would result in a quick defeat.

"Tsk." Airvans tried to buy some time to think about the solution. They could aim for Agata, but all five Mythical Rank Experts from the Mota Family had circled around Agata, making sure that she wouldn't be harmed by anyone.

Theo had truly made an execution zone for him and the Mind Elder with this. Even Eric was shocked and started to think differently in this battle. He could already picture their defeat and thought they should break free from this place. Theo had truly played them completely this time.

As if thinking the same thing, Airvans and Eric made the same move by jumping to the west. "We're leaving!"

The people were stunned because they never expected that Airvans and Eric would choose this action, but seeing their disadvantage, it was clearly a rational decision.

Without hesitation, the people from the Skyward Guardian followed them to avoid a direct confrontation.

Eric Griffith, Airvans Lockens, along with the rest of the Skyward Guardian, had to be eliminated in this place, so Theo and the others chased after them.

"Don't let them get away!" Ergene shouted as they immediately left the area.

"They're running away!" The people also noticed that the battle had turned into this type of situation and wanted to chase after them to see the conclusion of their battle.

However, there was a huge screen that stopped them from chasing after Theo and the others.

The five Mythical Rank Experts from the Mota Family immediately stood in front of the barrier as they were the ones arranging this barrier.

Boris stepped forward and stated, "I'll say this. If you follow after them, you'll die. The fight involving thirty Mythical Rank Experts will surely not be small. So, even if we need to use our force, we shall stop you here."

Suddenly, a round of police arrived at the area as they stood next to Boris and said the same thing as if everything had been planned. "We're also asking all people to stop here."

…

Meanwhile, Theo kept chasing after Eric and the Skyward Mercenary until they left the city.

During the escape, Eric Griffith's instinct was telling him that he was in danger. He thought that he was truly in danger, but he suddenly noticed something significant.

'Now that I think about it… Where are the people that want to chase after us? Although there won't be any Mythical Rank Experts, they should be popping here and there in the back.

'No, wait… We're in a plain outside the city, and there are no buildings in this direction for at least ten miles…' Eric Griffith gasped as he looked at Theo. 'Did he plan all this? By stopping us in that place, he assumed that we would be leaving because of the disadvantages…

'The reason why they hadn't launched an attack this whole time was because they wanted us to keep running in this direction so that we couldn't use the city to escape… There are many things that we can use if we're in the city, especially guerrilla warfare… but in this plain, there are only us.

'No way… did he position himself that way so that he could force us to flee in this direction? In other words, the true killing zone is in this place?' Eric Griffith gasped as he saw a smile appearing on Theo's face.

"It's time!" Theo whispered to Ruth.

"Understood." Ruth smirked as she pointed her hands toward the sky as if she wanted to shoot the sky with her arrow. "By the love of bow, I shall summon thee—"

A green light suddenly flew to the sky and formed a giant ballista, pointing at the Skyward Mercenary.

That huge arrow aimed for one of the Mythical Rank Experts as if she was planning to kill him in a single move. This was an attack that had been conjured by her Order, so the impact couldn't be blocked by a normal Mythical Rank Expert.

"Airvans!" Eric shouted.

Airvans clicked his tongue, stopped in his tracks, and turned around. "Water…"

A bubble of water appeared on top of his head as it turned into a cylinder facing the arrow.

As soon as the giant arrow was released, it immediately pierced through the water.

But as one would expect from the clash between two Orders, the arrow was like a beam that shredded everything in its way. Even the water was dispersed by the arrow. But Airvans' Order was stronger than her.

The water dispersed Ruth's Order as well, turning it into a normal arrow. Hence, after a while, the arrow gradually lost its momentum and started to fall straight to the ground.

"This is…" The Skyward Mercenary was shocked because that arrow was supposed to kill one of them. Because their leader and Eric stopped, they had to do the same, resulting in Theo's group catching up and surrounding them.

"He got us." Eric gritted his teeth as his expression darkened, looking at Theo.

This would be a perfect plan until there was someone interfering in their killing zone.

"!!!" Theo felt the extraordinary power coming toward them as he hurriedly turned around and snapped his finger.

A green smoke that was coming toward them suddenly disappeared as a person emerged from the green smoke. He was none other than the Poison King.

"It seems that we can fight without you holding back anymore, Joker… I mean, Theodore Griffith." The Poison King smirked.

On another battlefield, the same interference happened at the same time.

Just before the Griffith Family was going to be executed by the Sword Saint, the new Griffith Family, and Leonardo, a playful voice echoed in everyone's ears.

"Come on. You are fighting like this but not going to invite me."

"!!!" Everyone turned around and saw a man with blue hair walking toward them.

"This is a family matter—" Leonardo wanted to complain, but he abruptly fell silent because of the shock that struck his heart when he recognized this person.

Whether it was Mason, Leonardo, Ray, and Valerie, all of them recognized this appearance because he was the reason this war even happened.

"Theo?"

The guy made a big smile and playfully said, "Hello guys. I've come back from death."
