God of Tricksters

Russia.

"Father." Lyovkin walked to Yermolayev with a serious expression after knowing the situation all around the world. "We've received the reports. There are a total of 343 people missing. Two of our core family members are included… especially Levina."

"Mhm." Yermolayev nodded with a serious expression. "For now, we have to turn this place into a fortress."

"Then, how about Levina?"

"I'm not very sure yet. What did she say?"

"She's going to hide for the time being until there's a solution. If possible, she wants to go back here."

"I understand. For now, we have to understand the situation around us if we want to create a rescue party. Levina is a strong kid, so she should be able to survive." Yermolayev walked together with his son. "Follow me. Let's meet those people."

"Yes." Lyovkin looked down for a moment, contemplating. "Still, those people are cheering your name, thinking thanks to you, they're able to fare better."

"Is there anyone searching for me?"

"Yes. The Empress wants to talk to you."

"What did she want?"

"Information, specifically the reasons why we're holing up. She suspects we know about this whole situation."

"Tell her that I'll contact her in two hours. As for the rest, I'm going to turn them into our people, making sure they don't have the intention to rebel. This is our fortress after all."

"Then, are we going to accept refugees?"

"I'll give that answer after we settle the situation. For now, if people come to us, just place them right outside our gate. Don't let them in yet."

"Understood." Lyovkin nodded, knowing that his father was trying his best right now. They finally understood the reason why Theo told them their businesses would be insignificant anymore.

Although they hadn't fully utilized their money, they got many equipment and supplies which could last them for a few years.

…

Japan.

Nasagawa Ken, the Sword Saint, was having a meeting with the emperor and the prime minister, along with all high ranking parties.

"You have warned us at the last second. Do you know this will happen, Sword Saint?" The prime minister narrowed his eyes.

"To a certain extent. Remember Theo and Feng Hao's visit?"

"So, that's how it is." The prime minister paused before having another thought. "If that's the case, what do you think we should do?"

"I'm not too sure myself since my information is limited. I'll be trying to get some more information from those two for the time being. That's right. Theo has warned me about some areas in our country. They are Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and Fukushima."

"!!!" The prime minister widened his eyes in surprise. "We… actually got a report that the monsters there were weird. We don't have any further information for the time being."

"I'm assuming there is a mutation because of radiation."

"Radiation! That's right. Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and Fukushima are…" The prime minister's expression darkened.

"I'll let you handle that matter for the time being, Prime Minister. I have something that I need to do." The Sword Saint pointed at the prime minister, asking him to take on the mission.

"What is it?"

"I have to locate the King Class and World Class Monsters. The other Transcendent Level Experts can handle the King Class Monsters, but I'm the only one who can fight the World Class Monster." The Sword Saint took a deep breath and declared. "I'll be focusing my eyes on them."

The people sucked a cold breath. Now that the Sword Saint had said it, they wondered whether there were King Class and World Class Monsters actually appearing on their land.

"I understand. I'll leave it to you, Sword Saint. If you need help from the military, please contact the JSDF."

"Yes." The Sword Saint nodded with a serious expression.

…

China.

Feng Hao and Zhao Jia were sitting next to each other, staring at the screen that showed many people's faces.

The president smiled. "Thanks to both of you, we could make some preparations. We have set up a few points to fight back. However, we have a few problems right now."

"The World Class Monsters?" The Heavenly Sovereign narrowed his eyes.

"Yes. We don't know how many there are, but for the time being, we have received a report about them."

"How many are there?"

"There are around four World Class Monsters and ten King Class Monsters in our country alone. On the one hand, we're lucky that we can prepare early. On the other hand, our country will be ruined by those monsters. Do you think you can handle them?"

"Nope. Even a single World Class Monster is already tough for me. I'm pretty sure that they're going to fight each other, so I need their location. If they're injured, I have some chances to kill them. But we'll see." The Heavenly Sovereign sighed. "Don't forget that there are many World Class and King Class Monsters on the other side… We haven't even explored all their land. So, we don't know how many World Class Monsters there are."

"That's true. We have to locate all of them as soon as possible. If the situation becomes far too dangerous, we have to try evacuating the people."

"Yeah. But for now, no matter what happens, I believe I can protect this country for at least a year." The Heavenly Sovereign stated.

"Alright. For now, we have made sure our satellite won't be hitting anything, so at the very least, we'll have the means to communicate. We'll tell you about it later." The president nodded. "Feng Hao. Don't die."

"Hahaha. Everyone is going to die at one point. Though, I prefer dying because of old age. So, don't worry. I'm not planning to die." Feng Hao smirked and closed the communication.

His expression turned grim now that he was alone with Zhao Jia.

"Jia… Do you think you can help me rescue Theo's woman?"

"For what? In this situation, I don't think he can help us."

"No, he'll be able to help us. I'm sure of it. So, this is the time to make him owe us." Feng Hao smirked. "This time, it'll be our counterattack."

"Understood." Zhao Jia nodded, agreeing to his request.
