God of Tricksters

Chapter 1290 Presence

　　"We've confirmed the payment." The middle-aged Mythical Rank Expert from the stage nodded after receiving the money, handing them the stone as well as the rings.

　　He hurriedly left as soon as he finished handling everything, not wanting to get involved in the bloody fight that would soon happen.

　　There are already many people who are leaving this place, not wanting to be caught in the fight. At the same time, they weren't going to leave that far because this was the perfect chance to see a fight at this level.

　　"I guess we're leaving now?" 042 asked Theo while handing the two items.

　　Theo inspected them for a moment and confirmed that the energy was still the same. After that, he stored the rings in his pocket while putting the stone in a bag.

　　"Ryo. Take care of this, will you?" Theo handed the bag to Ryo, who wouldn't really join the fight.

　　"Understood." Ryo nodded with a serious expression.

　　Theo finally stood up before snapping his finger. Suddenly, his body started emitting a huge amount of Magic Power like that of a Mythical Rank Expert.

　　"This is…" 042 sucked a cold breath because Theo truly looked like a Mythical Rank Expert this time.

　　At first, Theo didn't want to bring anyone here, but he realized the situation was a bit too dangerous. He wasn't rash, so he wanted to be as safe as possible. That was why this group was formed.

　　"Well, do you have any problems with moving at high speed?" Theo asked 042 and Rea, who were wearing a dress.

　　"I'm good. The dress is short, so it won't hinder my movement." Rea nodded with a serious expression.

　　042 slightly ripped apart her skirt and snapped the heels before saying, "Done."

　　"Alright. Let's go then. What can you do for us, 042?"

　　"Lady Maya has expected this kind of problem, so she asked me to help you. I am a Summoner. I have several Mythical Rank Monster souls that I can control to stop them… At least for a few minutes."

　　"Good." Theo then walked to the front, leaving the room. Because of the situation, Ryo ended up taking the front. Felix stayed at the back with his hand on his sword. Meanwhile, the two ladies were walking by Theo's sides as if Theo was flaunting his status.

　　Still, the moment they left, they were greeted by the curious gazes of the bystanders. Luckily, there were not many people that dared to snatch the stones, considering Theo had the ability to fight against the Slaughter.

　　Still, the major influences that had the ability and intention to do it were nowhere to be seen. It was clear they were setting up some ambush after Theo was a bit farther away from the city.

　　Of course, they didn't care if they ended up fighting inside the city. But Theo planned not to cause so much problem, so he led his group straight to the forest not far from the auction house.

　　More and more presence soon entered Theo's senses. His Awareness was close to the last stage, so he could find them faster than anyone else in the group.

　　"13 people…" Theo muttered in a low voice while maintaining his calm expression.

　　"13 people?" 420 frowned since the number didn't match up.

　　"How is the other unit?" Theo asked Rea while looking around.

　　"They're here."

　　"So, assuming 3 out of those 13 people are allies, then… No wait, there is one more presence… But this one is so far away and the presence is thin…" Theo suddenly turned around and raised his vision, looking at the small hill half a mile from them. "Felix…"

　　"I'm afraid it's her." Felix nodded.

　　Meanwhile, the person in question gasped and even hid behind a tree when she sensed Theo's gaze. Even in the darkness, she had no problem watching their movements, so it was clear that Theo had found her.

　　"Seriously? He could find me from this far away? My presence is already thin, and this distance should be enough to hide from all the people I've seen so far, but he actually found me?" The woman sucked a cold breath.

　　She didn't know that Theo had seen her power through his Reality Eyes. In that reality, the opponent rashly charged at him, so she had no choice but to open fire.

　　By calculating the angle and focusing his Awareness in that direction, he managed to find her barely.

　　"Is he the man Felix worked for right now? Felix is a lunatic in the assassination work, but because of his family situation, he let go of his S Rank Assassin status… it seems that the person he works for is a monster like him." The woman muttered in a low voice, assessing the situation. "Whatever. My job is simple. I'll buy them a few minutes so that they can escape."

　　She calmed her heart down before coming out of her hiding place and raising her left hand. Her hand gesture appeared as if she was holding a bow, but there wasn't a single thing in it.

　　At the same time, her right hand moved to her back as if pulling out an arrow from a quiver. However, just like the other hand, she had no equipment.

　　She made a gesture of drawing the bow and aiming at the group. If this was seen by an ordinary person, she looked like an actress who was into her act. But if there was a Supreme or Mythical Rank Expert here, they would see a huge amount of Magic Power that concentrated on both hands, forming a bow and arrow.

　　Meanwhile, Theo finally started moving again before he felt all the people around him moving closer to the point they showed themselves.

　　Three people were in front of them while the rest gathered on his back.

　　"Stop. Hand over the stone, and we'll let you go." The Mythical Rank Expert in front of them shouted before glancing at the other who wanted to get a piece of what Theo said. "Brother. Do you think you can fight against all these Mythical Rank Experts?"

　　"It seems they have teamed up in exchange for splitting the reward," said Rea while glancing at the Mythical Rank Experts. She then found a group that blinked four times as soon as their gazes interlocked. "Should we break through here?"
