God of Tricksters

They walked for a few minutes, crossing multiple tunnels.

Theo kept pushing back all the imps they encountered with Ava on his shoulder.

Since there was no more danger with Theo around, the guy continued leading them for another fifteen minutes before they saw a light inside the tunnel.

They were never climbing up, so it was weird to see a light in this dark place, but Theo and Agata followed him while Ava kept listening to the sound, making sure there was no one hiding in that place.

If there was a trap, Theo had prepared to use his Blink. Even his clone had turned into an ant and stayed on Agata's shoulder.

They approached the light carefully before they were close enough to discern what kind of light they saw this whole time.

"A glowing crystal…" Theo and Agata frowned and said at the same time.

When they came out of the tunnel, they realized it was a huge room with blue-colored crystals. The mineral seemed to be releasing a blue glow, brightening the room.

"What is this…" Theo widened his eyes and looked around.

Everywhere he saw, he could see the crystals. The room itself was more than a thousand square feet and might be more since he couldn't see the end of the room due to the crystals blocking his vision.

"This is…" Theo sucked a cold breath when the glasses showed the information about this crystal.

Name: Blue Star Crystal.

Grade: D

Description: Very explosive. Mostly used for bullets and explosives. Need to be mixed with other materials.

'Blue Star Crystal?' Theo frowned and started wandering around. "Is this place safe, little guy?"

"Ada." He nodded.

"Damn, these are all explosive materials." Theo took a deep breath.

"Yeah. Once explode, we're dead." Agata pinched the bridge of her nose, feeling troubled. "Serious business…"

"Yeah. This is dangerous."

"No, no. Maya."

"Ah… Serious business." Theo nodded. "Is it something like a mine? But this place doesn't seem to be that big."

"Who knows. We don't know anything about this, but it should be useful for Maya." Agata shrugged.

"Fair enough." Theo then stopped and turned to the little guy. He bent his knees and said with a smile. "Thank you, little guy."

The little monster also bowed politely as if thanking Theo for saving his life.

"Haha." Theo chuckled and raised his hand.

Surprisingly, the little monster recognized such a gesture and placed his little hand on Theo's palm.

"Now that I think about it, have you seen a human before? You look so familiar with us."

"Ada!" The little guy nodded, confirming Theo's suspicion. However, he pointed at himself before spreading his hand and pointing at Theo. Then, he crossed his arm and covered his face.

"You're shy?"

He shook his head.

"Hmm… You can't talk to them?"

"Ada." He acknowledged it.

"Why? Wait, you made a gesture that the big you… Maybe your brother or parents… Did they forbid you to talk with us?"

"Adaa." He nodded and formed a sword again before pointing it at him.

"Because we're meant to fight?"

After acknowledging Theo's question, he then pointed at Theo and himself before clapping his hand above his head, reminding him they had made a high five.

"So, you and I are friends?" Theo smiled.

"Ada…"

"Is that so? Then, I'm honored." Theo smiled as he remembered how he acted with Ava in the past. He had a hard time comprehending Ava's gesture, but he still somehow understood it not long after. It was quite relaxing to know there was such a connection between them.

"Ada."

"Ahaha…" Theo chuckled while Agata looked at him, wondering if this was the way to know monsters like Ava and the little guy.

Suddenly, they felt a powerful Magic Power fluctuation coming from above the ground. The Magic Power was so strong that the ground started shaking.

As a Supreme Rank Expert, Agata felt this fluctuation and said, "Not good. Something powerful is above there. I'm afraid Maya…"

They looked at each other and nodded. "We need to go there."

"Adaaa!" The little guy immediately leaped toward Theo's clothes and clung to him as if asking Theo not to abandon him in this place.

Theo took a deep breath and nodded as he immediately rushed back according to their previous route. They were using Theo's Telekinesis to fly so that they could arrive as soon as possible.

"Ada!"

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

A series of explosions occurred in the area before a loud, deep voice resounded across the region.

"Where is my kid?!"

Maya coughed blood as she stumbled to the ground. Her barrier was cracked and her power was exhausted.

"Human, where is my kid?"

Standing two hundred feet away from her was a man with a black horse. The man was covered with a black robe with only his glove sticking out of the robe, wielding a giant black sword. His head was covered with a helmet, increasing the ferocity of his appearance.

The horse was covered with black flame and had bloodshot eyes, staring at Maya. Their height combined reached 100 feet. The trees were useless as they couldn't hide anything.

"I don't fucking know. I haven't even seen a monster like you!" Maya clicked her teeth. She wanted to escape, but the monster was too strong. At the same time, Theo and Agata were still inside the nest.

"The snake must have made the hole since I assigned him to protect my son. And you're here, human. The corpse is not there, it's clear that you're the killer."

'That snake?' Maya gritted her teeth, never thinking that the snake was actually the servant of this black night. She thought the snake was just a monster who only wanted to fight the imps. 'Why do I feel that trouble is always coming at me when I'm with Theo?'

The moment she thought it, Theo and Agata came out of the hole and floated in the air, seeing the black knight monster.

And the small version of that black knight was clinging to Theo's arm.

"Eh?" Maya widened her eyes as she couldn't believe what she had just seen.

The small guy recognized the black knight and raised his hand. "Adaa!"
