God of Tricksters

Theo had reached one of the places that were reported to be a King Class Monster's nest.

Still, as one would expect from the information from a normal person, it didn't state the specific location or any details regarding the monsters. Hence, Theo could only fight the monsters around until he sensed or the other party showed himself to fight him.

Theo thought for a moment. "This should be the place. But the city is quite huge, so I have to take my time to find the monster. Is it fine for me to do it? After all, I'm here to challenge a King Class Monster who has no trouble with me. Well, it's not like I'm going to fight them to death, I guess that's fine."

Theo steeled his resolve and began to look at this ruined city from above the sky.

He could see numerous monsters residing in this city. If he attacked one of them, there would be at least a thousand of them that would come out. And considering this was a King Class Monster's lair, there should be multiple Mythical Rank Monsters, especially the General Class Monsters.

Hence, this would be an extremely hard place to raid for normal people. But Theo was different.

As soon as he landed on the ground, he could feel multiple gazes on him as if preparing to prey upon him. There were three pairs of eyes coming from a small store on his left, there were two more coming from the building on the opposite side. He could also feel the presence inside the ten-story apartment before him.

Theo walked carefully while watching them, waiting for them to react. However, their instincts seemed to be telling them to stop as they would die if they came out right now.

However, Theo misunderstood their instincts as he thought there were General Class Monsters controlling the monsters. So, it was better if he could lure them out by stating, "Who can talk to me? I have a business in this place."

The monsters didn't understand his words, so they immediately leaped out of their hiding places, ambushing him from all directions.

Theo narrowed his eyes and waved his left hand, utilizing his Telekinesis to sweep the Hero Rank Monsters on his left. After that, he took out his spear and covered it in Energy Blast, thrusting it to the right side. The shock wave produced by the extraordinary power from the Energy Blast blew the monsters away, crushing an entire store.

After that, Theo stepped on the ground, releasing another wave of Magic Power from above with his Ascension Step, knocking the monsters that leaped out of the apartment.

As soon as the monsters fell down, Theo kicked the monsters so that they would leave him alone.

Unfortunately, he realized that there was no General Class Monster commanding them because the monsters that fell down in the previous battle actually stood up and started charging at him without caring about their bodies.

"..." Theo clicked his tongue and swung his sword, launching a sword wave that stopped the monsters in front of him. After that, he waved his hand down while utilizing the Invisible Vortex, causing the monsters to get hammered to the ground. One of them had their head crushed, while the others managed to survive with some injuries on their heads.

From the right side, a laser flew forth and almost hit him. Theo skillfully used his Twisted Reality to make the laser curve around his body and continue to the monsters in the opposite directions.

*Boom!*

*Boom!*

The laser attacked their own and killed the monsters from his left, allowing Theo to leap to the right and thrust his spear.

The monsters tried to escape, but Theo used his World Re-creation to expand the reality to his direction, causing the monsters to come toward Theo no matter what they did. Theo took this opportunity to pierce their heads in rapid succession.

Then, he snapped his fingers, summoned more than a thousand Magic Bullets and rained the rest of the monsters down with the bullets.

The Magic Bullets' explosions caused a bit of disturbance in the area since Theo wanted to meet a General Class Monster to ask about the King Class Monster's whereabouts.

But his action actually invited a bit more trouble for him because more and more monsters came to his location, noticing the disturbance. Around twenty monsters ranging from Hero Rank to Mythical Rank reached his location within two minutes.

"Well, this is quite surprising." Theo clicked his tongue since this wasn't his purpose here. Still, he could only fight since the General Class Monster didn't seem to meet him.

Hence, Theo immediately released his gold-colored Magic Power and spread it around as if challenging the leader of this place to fight.

This Magic Power was actually something the monsters loved to eat because of its importance to them. Just like the Shadow King explained back then when Ava ranked up, this energy was important to monsters because it was nourishing and allowed them to evolve. Hence, they all wanted to devour Theo.

"Come then." Theo squinted his eyes, knowing this step was crucial. On the one hand, he couldn't use too much Magic Power in this situation since he had to fight against a King Class Monster later. On the other hand, he had to kill them to make the monsters behind them come forward.

Without hesitation, Theo released his Death Avatar and utilized his Death Eyes. The Death Avatar released a powerful killing intent in all directions, alarming all the monsters that surrounded him.

After that, Theo summoned Magic Bullets and shot down all the monsters that were struck by fear.

He managed to kill half of them in an instant, but Supreme Rank and Mythical Rank Monsters were quite immune to that killing intent as they immediately jumped at him, trying to kill Theo by themselves.

Theo summoned a giant shield in front of him with the Irregular Guardian and kicked the air to the right, causing a shock wave that stopped the monsters from that direction. Then, he leaped to the right and waved his sword, trying to slice the monsters from this direction.

"How many monsters do I have to kill before I can meet the General Class Monster?"
