God of Tricksters

Chapter 779 - Mysterious Shadow

As soon as they left the facility, Theo stretched his hands while walking toward the north.

His clone appeared next to him and said, "You're going with me. My clone will kill some more monsters while we're at it."

"Got it." Ava had prepared herself for this feast.

After coming to an agreement, Theo then marched toward the woods.

The first few monsters they found were a group of horses. These black horses weren't that visible during the night, so it was hard to see them even with the glasses.

Theo looked at them with a serious expression before waving his spear toward their legs.

Suddenly, the horses saw their feet were missing due to Theo's attack. They stumbled to the front but somehow managed to touch the ground.

"?!" The horses were stunned because they could still move even though their legs were gone. In that instant, the illusion was broken.

"Tsk." Theo clicked his tongue while raising his spear, covering it with his Magic Power Expansion.

Seeing this, the black horses gathered in the center, forming a single line with the front horse lowering its head.

Their heads started to glow and the air around them changed its movement as if creating a small torrent that protected them inside.

Theo waved his left hand upward and the ground suddenly rose, throwing the balance of the horses.

Even so, the one in the front hurriedly put its head forward, trying to maintain the energy.

Theo took this chance to wave his spear down as if planning to attack them. But nothing happened since Theo didn't release the Magic Power Expansion. Instead, he was using his Telekinesis to push the air above the horses down, pinning them to the ground.

"Neigh!"

The horses were confused and ended up bending their knees. Theo didn't let this chance go.

He appeared right above the horse on the back using his Blink and struck its body.

The spear cut the horse's body and the shock wave that his Magic Power Expansion produced blew its body away.

The other horses also got the sudden boost of speed due to this shock wave, something they never expected. They ended up falling down and getting pierced by his Magic Bullets that came out of the ground.

There were only two horses left after that one strike. And Ava had disappeared from Theo's shoulder.

When the horses turned around and were about to charge forward, Ava kicked one of the horses and blasted it toward the other one.

Theo took this chance to deliver the killing blow.

"Nice." Theo smiled and signaled Ava to eat. But before he could look around, Theo stopped and looked at the sky while summoning his Magic Bullets. He sent the Magic Bullets to the sky to help his clone.

This hunt continued for around six hours until Ava felt full after eating a mountain of meat.

"Ava?" Theo frowned.

Before she even finished the meat, Ava had already stopped and closed her eyes.

Seeing this kind of change, Theo thought it was time for Ava to evolve. So, he summoned his clone again and looked around, making sure no one disturbed her.

Nothing happened in the first two hours. Even so, Theo patiently waited and protected her.

After the long wait, Ava's body started convulsing. Lightning began sparking all around her and blasted away the meat and bone around her, startling Theo.

Theo turned around and saw Ava floating two feet above the ground, protected by a translucent light-blue sphere that emitted lightning spark every second.

The lightning struck the trees, the ground, and even Theo to the point he needed to use his blue artifact to shield himself from these lightning strikes.

The real Theo protected his clone with the shield but made him look over the shield to check Ava's condition.

"Hmm… Does transformation to Supreme Rank release this kind of energy?" Theo frowned. "If that's the case, won't it mean this stuff is happening all around the world every few minutes? I mean, with such a high population, I'm sure that many beasts are becoming a Supreme Rank Monster every hour.

"Besides, there are other ranks as well. So…" Theo raised his vision and realized the area around this place brightened because of the lightning.

Without hesitation, Theo used his Telekinesis to fly above the woods and check his surroundings. After that, he used his Illusion Manipulation to darken the area again, camouflaging Ava's transformation.

However, he was startled when a black sphere suddenly appeared around them and closed the entire area, trapping Ava and Theo inside this black sphere.

"What is this?" Theo looked around while having his clone use its Blink to check the situation outside. At the same time, he prepared his Magic Bullets, trying to block them.

In Clone Theo's eyes, he saw a giant shadow dome that enclosed the entire space, making him realize they were trapped by someone.

In that instant, Theo turned around and looked at Ava, planning to retrieve her and escape from this place.

But it was too late. Between his glowing Magic Bullets, there was a humanoid shadow. The shadow had blood-red eyes and its entire body was covered with black flame. However, Theo could still see a few unique features that humans were not supposed to have.

It was a pair of long pointed ears and three long tails.

The shadow looked at Theo.

Theo wanted to attack this mysterious shadow, but something sharp touched his neck, stopping him from his track.

In that instant, another figure appeared. It was a long robe but without a face even though it looked like someone was wearing it. The robe was floating in the air and wielding a huge scythe with his shadow hand.

Theo felt one movement would result in his death, even if it was his Blink.

Suddenly, a sound was ringing directly into his head. 'No need to resist. The reason why I haven't killed you is that you seem to be protecting this child… Answer me, what's the relationship between you and this child? If you're lying, I'm going to slice your neck right away.'
