God of Tricksters

Chapter 154 - Torture

(Explicit Content Warning. Skip it if you can't stand it.)

With the Ranger dying, only Sonia and the Knight remained.

Phyrill smirked and leaped to the side, changing his opponent from Sonia to the Knight.

He slammed the shield with both swords.

The Knight raised his shield and blocked it. As a third-year, he couldn't afford to lose against Phyrill, especially with their level difference.

Unfortunately for him, if it were before this journey, Phyrill would be overpowered by his strength and there was no chance of killing him. But Phyrill had leveled up so many times to the point he far surpassed his level from a week ago.

"You know what… My level is now equal to your level…" Phyrill smirked and released all his power and hit the shield again until the ground beneath the Knight cracked.

"Kh. Impossible. How can you become this strong after just a few days?" He gritted his teeth.

"You should ask yourself how you can be this weak after getting the chance to level up in the past few days. Are you challenging something you can't beat and end up without any level up?" Phyrill smirked and understood perfectly.

The group had been stirred by Sonia and her accomplices to go to this place to gain Alea's trust and cooperation. However, their plan was ruined by Theo without him even doing anything. He simply waited for them to make a move and record it.

Yeah, they had been tailing Alea's group the whole time in the face of leveling up in a higher-level area so they could get stronger. But their journey wasn't that great either.

When they faced the Unending Grass Field, they wasted a whole day just to give up the dangerous path and used the small pathway to go around that grass field, wasting another day of walking.

After coming here, they couldn't withstand the monsters' power and got overwhelmed a few times. Even so, they took advantage of that situation to stop Alea and the others from killing the Hero Rank monster by sending the monsters that tried to kill them.

They managed to stop Alea and somehow found their location. They just followed Alea and her group's trail and led the group slightly farther from their location.

During the night, Sonia executed her plan to bring the monsters to their camp while the two accomplices directed the group in Alea's direction, making them accidentally meet.

Theodore Griffith became famous not long ago, but it was for a different reason. They never expected Theo to be this strong because he was known as a bullied person. Hence, Sonia thought they could take advantage of him to get Alea's favor and somehow got their help. Sonia also had another agenda, but Theo ultimately stopped her.

Thinking about it and seeing Phyrill's devilish smile, the Knight understood that they wouldn't be alive tomorrow.

He clenched his teeth and shouted, "You… Have no intention to spare me, right?"

"It's funny how you can be sharp this time and become foolish when you execute your plan." Phyrill smirked and transformed into a werewolf while saying, "And do you know that a werewolf can get stronger under the moonlight?"

The Knight let out a long sigh before raising his shield, throwing it to Phyrill. "Take this!"

Phyrill furrowed his eyebrows as the shield blocked his vision. He thought the Knight tried to ambush him, so Phyrill took one step back. However, when the shield dropped, he saw the Knight stabbing his own heart. He didn't forget to give Phyrill a middle finger. "F*ck you!"

"!!!" Phyrill widened his eyes and shouted, "Theo! Don't let that woman die too!"

Theo was confused by his instruction, but when he saw the sword that pierced the Knight's heart was his own, Theo quickly stepped forward and thrust his spear to Sonia.

Not very familiar with the spear, Sonia barely stopped Theo's thrust, but Clone Theo already appeared and grabbed her hands and legs, locking her movement from behind.

He took the spear back and punched Sonia on the stomach with his Monkey Fist until she spat a mouthful of blood.

"Gah!"

Sonia glared at Theo, but the latter opened her mouth to prevent her from killing herself before sticking his spear inside her mouth.

Phyrill appeared next to him as he released his killing intent, looking at Sonia. "Who gave you the instruction? What was your original purpose?"

Theo lowered Sonia to the ground according to Phyrill's instruction but still had his clone locked her movement.

Phyrill surprisingly brought a rope and tied her to the tree, so he would have a great time interrogating her.

Before asking any question or listening to Sonia's reply, Phyrill jabbed Sonia's hand with his sword and ultimately planted his sword to the ground.

"Gah!" Sonia cried while enduring the pain.

"Listen here, you little b*tch. I don't like wasting my time, so I will be asking the question here and you have to answer me honestly." Phyrill glared at her while releasing his killing intent.

"You inhuman monster!" Sonia kept cursing Phyrill for a few minutes in one breath until the latter was fed up with her.

Phyrill stabbed her hand with the other sword, but he didn't plant it to the ground this time. Instead, he stopped in the middle of her hand before slicing her palm sideways and ripping it off.

Flesh and blood spurted out of the hand as one could see the white bones on her hand directly. The pain she experienced right now couldn't be described with any words.

She shook her body to the left and right while shouting and crying.

Phyrill's expression had become unbearably cold as he said, "It seems you don't understand your position here. If I ask, you will answer honestly. If you don't answer, then I will let you know why my Hilbert Family is a famous underground family."

Sonia screamed as if she just met the devil. She wanted to collapse right now, but the pain kept her awake. She didn't know why, but this kind of pain actually didn't knock her off, making her realize Phyrill's… No, Hilbert Family's torture might be a little bit special.

Theo closed his eyes before turning around. Although he had prepared for it, he just never expected that Phyrill would do something more than stabbing or punching. He literally skinned her palm and gouged her flesh and blood.

Even though Theo could endure the cruelty, he still couldn't endure the sight and entrusted Phyrill with the tort…Ahem, interrogation.

"I am going to bury the corpses." Theo shook his head. "We may cross this area in the next few days, so it's better to bury them instead of letting the monsters eat their remains."

Phyrill looked at Theo and sighed. "Yeah. That's the best choice."
