God of Tricksters

Chapter 772 - New Power

After thinking about his lesson, Maya finally returned to the Cubicar.

"We're finally done." She let out a long sigh while putting off her armor. Without hesitation, she opened their storage and started refilling the weapons.

Meanwhile, Theo said, "Anyway, we're planning to slow down our pace and kill more enemies in our route. What do you think?"

The plan was clearly the only option to make up for the loss due to the magma monster. There wasn't a single objection coming from Maya's mouth.

Instead, she asked, "Where is the flower?"

Theo pointed at the corner. "It has cooled down."

"That's good. I don't know how good the effect is before checking it in the lab, but considering the difficulty in getting it… Probably around one billion. Not very sure about that." Maya paused for a moment. "As for the route, I'll just follow your plan."

Theo nodded and thought, "Well, because of this change, I'm afraid you and Agata will be around twenty levels short of the Supreme Rank."

"It's fine. The second destination is enough for me." She waved her hand like it wasn't that big of a deal. Considering they still had the third destination, it was easy for her to accept this. "How about you?"

"I might not be able to reach Supreme Rank Expert in the second destination. So, the third destination, I guess." Theo shrugged.

"Alright. We'll do it your way. As long as we all can reach Supreme Rank Experts, there won't be any problem, right?"

"Yeah."

"That's good then. Do you have anything to say to me about that magma monster?"

"No. You obviously don't know anything about it. Either way, I'm not going to put any blame on you for that one." Theo raised both hands as if telling her that everything was alright.

"Heh. If you work with a team, the team's scout is in charge of assessing this kind of information. Normally, they'll be blamed for this kind of mistake. And since I'm the one who invited you, I should be able to provide more information. For that, I apologize," said Maya with a serious expression.

Maya seemed to take everything seriously, especially since Theo wasn't someone under her. So, this was considered a grave mistake even if Theo didn't say anything.

If it wasn't Theo, they would have demanded some ridiculous things for compensation.

Hence, even if Theo forgave her, Maya planned to compensate for this incident.

As for what compensation should be given, she would think of it after they returned.

After agreeing to the plan, Theo continued their way while slowing down their pace.

There was another reason why Theo wanted to slow down. Ava needed time to recover, so it would be better if she recovered on the way.

Unfortunately, even with all his plans, he couldn't slow it down for more than two weeks. So, from the original three-day trip to the second destination, it became 17 days.

After getting a good rest inside, Theo came out to take over, finally fighting without Ava on his side for the first time. At the same time, this was the opportunity to test his new ability against normal monsters, especially in a long and hard fight.

There should be a vast difference between a one-on-one fight and one against many. Hence, Theo planned to use this opportunity to consolidate his skills.

He soon found several monsters coming toward them and immediately summoned his artifact because the gem on the spear allowed him to gain more control over his Magic Power. He didn't have enough confidence to use his normal spear yet.

He landed in front of the monsters with a serious expression, staring at the five monsters.

"Well, you're going to be my test subject." Theo smiled. This time, he had left his clone behind to focus on playing with these monsters.

The monsters also didn't hold back. They charged at him from different directions, trying to divide his attention.

Theo smirked and lifted his left hand.

Suddenly, sharp spikes came out of the ground.

Not wanting to have their stomach pierced, all five of them leaped into the air.

Theo then waved his spear, cutting all of their heads. Blood splattered like how they were supposed to be.

The monsters were shocked because they never expected Theo could kill them in one instant.

As if they didn't wish to die, they gritted their teeth and opened their mouths.

It was at this time the illusions were broken.

"Tsk. It's tough to use it against multiple people. I need to focus on many things." Theo clicked his tongue.

If it was only one target, he had the confidence in replicating what he did to the magma monster. However, with more monsters, many details would need to be added to make the illusion look real.

It was hard even for him to utilize it against multiple people. And once someone broke the illusion, it would make other monsters realize too.

Seeing all his illusions disappear made him displeased as he used Blink to appear not far away from them.

The monsters immediately chased after him, but Theo waved his hand, cutting a monster's legs from afar.

The monster lost control of its legs and stumbled to the ground.

It was at this time the Magic Bullets rained him down and ultimately killed the monster. This was the first success of his illusion.

'Heh. I've lost my limbs several times, so I know the emptiness you'll feel when one of your limbs is gone. It's normal to stumble.' Theo thought with an evil smile on his face.

The remaining four monsters didn't even look back as they were thinking about avenging the one that died instead of mourning for him.

Theo then looked at their surroundings and leaped back before snapping his fingers.

Suddenly, two trees on his left and right were cut and started to fall down.

The monsters panicked and immediately increased their speed to push through.

Little did they know, the falling trees were nothing but an illusion. Theo smiled and muttered, "Alright… Time to take them down."
