God of Tricksters

Chapter 73 - Have Yet To End

"Go!" Theo couldn't help but scream in excitement because this might be the first time that he solved the impossible by himself.

His hand was numb after taking the full brunt of the Magic Bullets, but he didn't even realize it because of the excitement.

Unfortunately for him, he miscalculated the momentum he got from the Magic Bullet, sending him farther than he thought.

If he continued like this, nothing would break his fall and he probably ended up with broken bones. And with Alea on his back, her "sleep" would surely be disturbed.

Hence, Theo looked to his left, finding a tree to land.

The moment he found one, he cut the rope attached to his chest before grabbing Alea and pulling her to his embrace.

"Blink."

Theo arrived right in front of the tree, still carrying the momentum like the first time he used Blink. However, he already had a plan for this and summoned his clone, handing him the shield.

The clone then went right in front of him and became a cushion for Theo and Alea to hit the tree safely without injury.

Bam.

The clone was destroyed immediately, but Theo confirmed that his body was alright without any sign of excessive injury. Originally, he planned to use Blink to teleport himself a few feet upward, so he could fly even longer, but he realized the Blink wouldn't be enough to send him to the other side. However, Theo didn't complain about it because he managed to use it at the right time.

He landed on his back, gently hitting the tree while protecting Alea's body from getting hit.

"Huft. I want to go home right now…" Theo let out a long sigh before Alea let out a moan as she opened her eyes, finding her face so close to Theo.

Theo already prepared for a slap, but Alea acted differently. Instead of going for the normal route, she stood up and released her Awareness.

All it took was the spear that Theo held with his mouth to know that they were in the middle of something, so it was better to be alert instead of acting like an ungrateful b*tch.

"What happened?" Alea blinked her eyes, finding nothing in her surroundings.

Theo only pointed his finger at her before she realized something was happening behind her.

Roar.

Roar.

"Seriously?" Alea dropped her jaw, watching around three hundred Elite Rank Monsters behind them. She looked at the gap and thought that it was impossible for Theo to cross this gap since it was obvious that they came from the other side.

"Theo… What did you do? We came from that side, right?" She turned around and quickly checked his body to see the injury. "Do you have any injuries? Internal injury?"

"I don't think so, but I am so exhausted right now. I think I only have around twenty percent of my Magic Power left and my two legs are refusing to move." Theo sighed.

Alea never expected that Theo would take a risk like this while she was asleep. Still, no matter what anyone said, just like how she protected Theo, he also saved her life.

And Alea needed to say that one thing. "Thank you."

"I am just repaying what you have done for me. That's all." Theo shook his head. "I don't know whether this place is safe or not, so I am counting on you. Let me rest a bit."

"Sure thing." Alea nodded with a serious expression. "Still, I can't believe you could cross that kind of gap."

"Do you think you can?" Theo asked.

"Hmm… With all my physical ability and Magic Power, barely."

Theo agreed since he only succeeded due to his Magic Bullet and Clones. "But I think I need to level up a bit more because I have wasted too many attribute points to escape from them."

"Ahaha, I will help you regarding that. Normally, the first-year student doesn't need to go to this side many times, so they are only Level 20 to Level 30 when they advance a grade. Even most of the graduates are at my level… Because we are actually learning more about knowledge instead of increasing our level.

"Although I do admit that level is important and many people actually prefer it more than knowledge, I think school is still important because not only you can gain connections, but you can also increase your normal abilities.

"For example, unless you have a mentor, no normal fighter that comes to this side without a school will know about five most important aspects until they have a few years of experience. This school is built for that purpose. But because of Grand Gaia, we have another option where we can gain more levels than history.

"To be honest, I may have the chance to become a Level 251 Hero Rank Magic Warrior before graduating. As for you? I believe it will be far higher since I'm thinking of helping you reach Level 70 before the training camp is over."

"Level 70 huh." Theo looked down, contemplating for a moment. "There are still five months left before everything is wrapped up."

"Yeah. I believe in the third stage, you may have a shot to get to Level 100 or even more." She nodded.

"I see." Theo looked down. "Though I believe I can reach Champion Rank…"

"That will depend on our team in the future. If they are good, I'm sure that everyone can reach Champion Rank because I know this will be the first step to compete with other countries' students."

"We will see." Theo nodded. His confidence was based on his previous data. The fact that he could become an Elite Rank Fighter from Level 7 Fighter within two weeks allowed him to speculate what kind of thing he needed to do to reach the Champion Rank. "Anyway, let me rest first for two or three hours."

"Let's eat, shall we? I'm going to hun—" Before she finished her words, a loud howl vibrated the ground.

It was like thunder reverberating in one's ears. Even the monsters from the other side of the cliff stopped as if they got scared of this roar.

Due to their distance, Theo and Alea could clearly hear that the howl came from inside the gap they crossed earlier.

"!!!"

Boom.

Giant claws reached the edge of the cliff as if it was trying to come out. Each claw had a width of six feet, while the entire hand had a span of fifty feet. Without a doubt, the monster that was hidden this whole time was massive. And to think that there was something this big in this area… Even Alea didn't have such information.

Theo couldn't help but mutter, 'Oh, sh*t. Did the roars from the monsters I brought to the cliff wake this monster up?'
