God of Tricksters



"Aaaahhhhh!" The Magic Saint's scream echoed from the inside. The raging fire tornado not only tried to shred him into pieces, but it was also burning him alive.

Even the Magic Saint wouldn't expect that such an attack would come. In fact, Theo had predicted all this.

This was one of the lessons from Leonardo after all.

'To defeat the enemy, you should watch how your enemy moves.' Theo looked at the fire tornado with a serious expression. Understanding the lesson and applying it were two different cases.

But in Theo's case, his application was a bit different. Instead of watching how the enemy moved, he actually forced them to take that action. In other words, Theo didn't react to the enemy's movements. He actually reacted to the movements he forced the enemy to take. This would allow him to move one step ahead and take control of the battle.

He had been provoking the Magic Saint this whole time because he wanted him to come.

Once he was about to arrive, by summoning the fireball and shooting it, the Magic Saint would only have two options. He could either take it head-on or loop around. But either way, the Magic Saint would be doomed.

After all, if he destroyed the fireball, his life would be in danger from the raging fire tornado. If he looped around, he would simply cut the fireball into two, causing the wind to erupt.

Either way, the fire tornado would appear and engulf the Magic Saint.

The latter, of course, could simply stop and move backward. But with the constant provocation, Theo ruled out that option.

This was the real concept in Theo's fighting style. It wasn't that he observed his movement. Instead, he made them take that action.

Theo took a deep breath, looking at the situation.

As expected from a Saint, he wouldn't go down easily.

Mason actually managed to disperse the tornado with his Magic Power. But it seemed that he had taken a lot of damage.

A third of his skin was charred and some parts of the skin were completely burned, causing the flesh to be visible and the blood to flow out.

This was the first time he saw the two layers of elements. This might be the upgraded version of his multi-layers of Magic Power. Although he only used two elements, as long as he could understand the synergy between elements, the power could easily overwhelm his ability.

Mason gnashed his teeth. His eyes were filled with killing intent because Theo would kill him sooner or later. He knew that Theo was stronger than him. But what shocked him the most was that the longer they fought, the more his weakness disappeared.

Theo had trouble learning from the monsters because their power was too unique. But with Mason's ability, which derived from Control, Theo could use it to stabilize his foundation.

In other words, Theo was using Mason as both the mentor and punching bag. Once he completed his purpose, Theo would definitely kill him.

Mason didn't expect Theo to be this monstrous. If he knew Theo could achieve this feat at this age, he would have done anything to grab Theo. In fact, he might even offer anything as long as Theo would join the family, even if it meant killing the Mind Elder personally.

Unfortunately, it was too late. There was only one person who would walk away from this battle.

He knew that his death would soon come to him. Of course, he never had the intention to beg for mercy.

After walking this path for a very long time, Mason had done a lot of cruel things. He had seen all those people begging for mercy, but he still killed them.

He always prepared for the same situation to occur to him in the future. At the very least, there were a few people who could kill him.

That was why he wouldn't beg for mercy. Instead, since he was going to die, he would at least try to drag down the enemy.

Mason took a deep breath. He raised his stance once again. Now that he had accepted his fate, he instantly regained his calm. There was boundless killing intent coming out from his body.

Even without him saying it, Theo could see through his intention. Mason would do everything to drag him down.

He didn't know whether the one in front of him was a clone or not. After all, it could be either way. If he was a clone, it meant that he could recall it to fight against the original Theo, which would give him an advantage. If this was the real fight, it meant he knew that fighting him would use less Magic Power, allowing him to conserve his Magic Power.

These two scenarios had their own benefits. So, Mason didn't care whether the one in front of him was a clone or not. The one in front of him was an enemy. That was all that mattered.

With that thought in mind, Mason charged forward. He covered his body with Magic Power, preparing for all kinds of situations.

Theo knew that the current state of the Magic Saint would be dangerous even for him. If he didn't play his cards carefully, the Magic Saint might be able to reach him.

That was why Theo wanted to end this fight as soon as possible.

'An ability to kill the Magic Saint…' Theo muttered inwardly before raising both hands. Suddenly, a giant wall made of rock appeared, separating both of them.

The Magic Saint roared and smashed the giant wall with his fist.

*Bam!*

It couldn't even last a second before the giant wall crumbled into pieces. However, Theo left the violent wind inside.

Once the wall broke, the wind would shred the Magic Saint's body apart.

"Gaaaahhhhh!" Mason screamed in pain, but his eyes remained focused on his target. Surprisingly, he flew past the violent wind even if the wind cut him many times. All the wounds weren't comparable to the chance to defeat Theo.

"Die!" Mason shouted.

Unfortunately for him, his luck had run out.

A shadow appeared behind him and swung his sword.

"!!!" Mason glanced to the side and realized it was another Theo. "Two Theos… Then my opponent is the real body?"
