God of Tricksters

"!!!" The four King Class Monsters widened their eyes when they suddenly saw a change occurring on the Dark King's body.

"What is happening?" The spider asked, panicking.

"I don't know. I feel something bad from that change." The fox gritted his teeth. He felt oppression from that light, but because he wasn't close to Authority Level, he didn't know what it was.

The humanoid rock was the one answering their doubt. "We have to stop him. I'm not sure what's going on, but he's getting stronger."

The King Class Monsters nodded at each other as they charged forward, trying to distract him.

The spider released his web, the chameleon tried to strike him from behind, the fox released a sharp crescent-shaped energy, and the humanoid rock used his body to smash the Dark King.

Seeing their actions, the Dark King raised his hand.

"Obey me." It was a command from the Dark King.

Suddenly, the shadow or any dark color within the gap of their bodies suddenly shook as if they were kneeling before the ruler.

They suddenly expanded and bound the enemies' hands and feet.

"!!!" The Four King Class Monsters didn't know what was happening. The Shadow King didn't help him, yet, their shadow actually moved according to the Dark King's will.

A black plate gradually appeared on top of the Dark King. This was actually his armor, but the Dark King had used his power to turn it into a big smooth plate.

Due to the change of shape, the plate became ten times its original size, covering him and the four King Class Monsters from the sun.

But this was exactly what he needed.

"Get away!" The humanoid rock shouted, feeling the danger.

Unfortunately for them, only the fox and the spider, who used a long range attack managed to leave the darkness, while the humanoid rock and the chameleon had to be trapped inside.

"Gate of Darkness." The Dark King muttered.

Suddenly, there was a vortex on the black plate's surface as if it was trying to swallow them.

However, it was nothing but a distraction for the humanoid rock and the chameleon. They were trying to get away, but the Dark King waved his blade down.

In that instant, the black plate on top of them shot out numerous spikes to their front, causing them to stop.

The Dark King used that opportunity to swing his blade again. This time, the black plate became the medium for his sword strike to travel.

Just like the small black ball that turned into a blade, the giant plate suddenly released a vertical blade like the extension of the Dark King's blade, cutting them.

Three black blades struck the humanoid rock, hitting his body and shoulders. In that instant, the humanoid rock turned into four.

Meanwhile, the chameleon suffered a much worse fate than the rock. There were actually five blades hitting him. One blade cut his other hand, two blades cut his tails, the last two cut his body, ultimately killing him.

In that single attack, the Dark King actually decapitated one King Class Monster and killed the other.

This was the strength of a Saint.

The Dark King looked at his hand, feeling the surge of power from his mark.

'I see… So, this is the difference between a King and a Saint. What a wonderful feeling this Authority has…

'No, should I say, this is the feeling of being a ruler… I have Dark Authority, anything that appears to be dark like a shadow, dark color, and other things, shall be under my command.'

The Dark King closed his eyes for a second as if he was trying to get a good grasp on his new strength.

He didn't know whether Theo predicted this or thought he had to experience a near death experience first before getting enlightenment. But he was sure of one thing. Theo believed he could overcome the challenge and become a Saint.

The Dark King smiled. "Well, should I say that I have a big brain and good talent that I manage to comprehend it before I'm in a near death situation? As expected of me."

The Dark King was filled with confidence. It might be because he had dropped his adoration for the Frost Saint that now he didn't feel any more pressured by his status.

Even if he didn't idolize the Frost Saint, the amount of respect he had for him still hadn't changed. That was enough for him.

The Dark King smiled while staring at the fox, the spider, and the heavily injured rock.

"Rejoice, for you have the opportunity to die under a Saint's hands. I should thank you for making me realize what I'm lacking in order to become a Saint!"

In that instant, the Authority Mark glowed brightly. But because the light was black, the entire area darkened as if the sun had disappeared.

The black colored Magic Power in his body gradually transformed from a fiery black fire to a smooth, controlled layer.

"From now henceforth, I am not a Dark King. I am a Dark Saint! And I, the Dark Saint, hereby swear that whoever touches my friend's people shall die. Because you've severely injured Rea, I shall grant you death."

Dark clouds gradually gathered in the area, covering the sun. Then, from the black cloud, black light started to fall, illuminating the area.

"…" The remaining King Class Monsters felt their instinct was telling them to flee. After all, this place had become extremely dangerous.

Just like they thought, this entire area had become an execution ground.

And they were a tad too late to escape as the Dark King had made his next move.

…

Not far away from the battlefield, the Shadow King suddenly stopped and looked at the horizon as if she was staring at the Dark King. She felt something different from her husband, considering they had each other's mark.

The same applied to the Frost Saint, who had been waiting for this moment.

He was in the middle of meditation when he suddenly felt the change in the Dark Mark he received from the Dark King.

Knowing what had happened, both of them smiled and said the same thing.

"You did it."
