God of Tricksters

Chapter 440 – Movement

Chapter 440 - Movement

Theo proceeded to kill the monsters one by one.

Yesterday's fight, where he handled more than fifty monsters, gave him enough data of how he should annihilate them. That was why the second time didn't take too much Magic Power compared to the previous one.

In fifteen minutes, all the monsters had become corpses as Theo began to gather the loot.

Vampiric Fangs (C)

A fang that can absorb blood.

"This is the Vampiric Fang." Theo thought for a moment. "I don't know about its use… maybe I can use this fang to dry the monster's blood faster? This way, the preparation time for our meal can be reduced?"

"Kyu!" Ava heard his words and blinked her eyes a few times. Though, her head was only thinking about food…

Theo shrugged and said, "Either way, we are done here. Let's continue hunting monsters. We will reach my goal as quickly as possible."

"Kyu!" Ava nodded with a smile.

After that, Theo and Ava started roaming in Sinx Forest, dealing with as many wolves as possible. If he had gone according to his plan, he would have visited Eion Plain to kill some mummies, but Theo decided to remain in Sinx Forest for one reason.

The wolves had better hearing, so the wolves would end up coming after them first instead of him going all the way to find the wolves.

Unknown to him, the situation had grown more dangerous day by day.

On the corner of Eion Plain were several hundred mummies, gathering in a group. They all seemed to be moving in unison with a blue-bandaged mummy at the helm.

The mummy took another look at their situation, finding more than a hundred corpses in the area.

The majority of them were wolf corpses, but there were at least thirty human corpses mixed in them.

They had been expanding their area to the Eion Plain border as many humans had decided to retreat in fear.

On another side, the wolves were roaming around Sinx Forest, eliminating all living beings other than their kin.

However, the wolves were incapable of doing so because the humans in their forest were far stronger than those in Eion Plain. Even the military focused on the Sinx Forest, not Eion Plain.

And among them were Phyrill and Ellen, sitting together with all their groups.

The middle-aged man, who had been with Phyrill the whole time, stood up to give his report. "Young Master, may I?"

"Please." Phyrill nodded.

The middle-aged man looked at all of them with a serious expression. "I have met with military personnel not far from here. According to them, there has been a serious change in this place."

"Haha, are the wolves scared now?" One of them jokingly commented, followed by laughter from his colleagues.

The middle-aged man shook his head. "It's something more serious. There is not a single human in Eion Plain anymore. The military has confirmed it."

"!!!" All of them widened their eyes and stopped laughing. They all knew the severeness of this matter with just that sentence.

"The military has shifted their camp not far from here." The middle-aged man pointed at their right, showing the camp's position. "Both the wolves and mummies are using all their strength to eliminate all threats in their territory and we can safely assume something big is going to happen soon.

"That's why the military gave us two options." He raised his forefinger and said, "First. We will retreat from this place."

"We can level up faster than ever because of this situation. Are you telling us not to take advantage of it? Was there any big group like us in Eion Plain?" one of them asked with a little bit of anger.

"Nope."

Phyrill closed his eyes and contemplated their choice. He asked, "What is our second option?"

"Young Master?" The middle-aged man widened his eyes before answering, "They are planning to raid Wolf City. It's not to destroy them but to buy more time."

"Buying time?" Phyrill clenched his fists and said, "The government hasn't made the decision yet? I'm sure those guys from the military have reported this."

"They have, but mobilizing a huge number of troops takes time."

"So, what is their intention?"

"We have no clue, but looking at their plan, they are planning to abolish the power by killing both leaders one by one." The middle-aged man explained with a grim expression.

"What?"

"Killing them?"

The others started to get riled up as they knew both rulers of this area were supposed to be close to Supreme Rank Expert, if not higher.

Phyrill only closed his eyes as if he had expected this answer. He gradually opened his eyes, releasing his killing intent. "We don't have information about their numbers and strength. It is reckless to attack them right now without proper knowledge of our enemies."

"Then, we shouldn't join them…" The middle-aged man nodded, having the same answer as Phyrill.

However, Phyrill suddenly dropped a bomb that no one could believe. "No. We are going with them."

"Eh?" All of them were bewildered by his decision because they couldn't see any reasons to join them. "Young Master… You…"

"I bet you think there's no reason to join them, right?"

"Y-yeah. Isn't that obvious?"

"But my decision is… We will join them because there's no reason to join them." Phyrill laughed as if he had gone crazy.

"Young Master. You are not doing this because you find it funny, right?"

"Of course not." Phyrill shook his head. "The country's information network is better than ours, especially on the other side. And those who climb the rank in the military won't be someone foolish. In other words, they may have another reason for committing this reckless action and we need to know that reason.

"If they are ready to sacrifice many soldiers, they should have a big reason. We are joining them to know that exact reason. This is also a reckless move from myself, so I don't mind if you decide to drop this mission." Phyrill glanced at Ellen, who had nothing to do with their Hilbert Family.

"I can go back with Alea's family later. I'm sure if we go with your plan, the Eilric Family will meet us." Ellen shrugged. "So, until that day arrives, I will stick to this group."

"That's good enough, I guess." Phyrill turned to the rest of his subordinates. "What about all of you?"

"When the future successor of this family risks his own life to get this information, how can we, your subordinates, leave you? We have been with this family for a long time, please don't disrespect our loyalty." The middle-aged man smiled. "We will follow you."

The others nodded their heads without hesitation, showing their loyalty to the family. They were considered one of the elites in the family, so there was no way they would back down with only a little risk like this.
