God of Tricksters

"Felix. I'm afraid you have to evolve or you will die this time."

Felix still remembered the day Theo said those words to him. Theo finally showed such a weakness because the enemies were simply too powerful.

And looking at the situation, he felt this was probably the situation Theo was talking about.

When he was with Ava, he had an easier time since he could focus on two King Class Monsters. Now that he had lost her, if he didn't make the correct move, he might die without accomplishing anything.

'He has entrusted me with such an important task. Right now, there are four King Class Monsters before me. Although they have been injured quite badly, it doesn't change the fact that I'm not strong enough to fight them.'

Felix couldn't help but relate to Theo's words. He told him that he wasn't strong enough to protect everyone. And currently, Felix knew he was also too weak to protect them.

'What can I do to get stronger? If I don't evolve, I might die here…' Felix took a deep breath as his expression turned grim.

Felix was releasing all his Magic Power, trying to pressure them to focus on him. They could still go to Ava, but it would mean that they would die on the way since he would be hunting them down. And he looked determined to kill anyone that tried to escape.

Even the monsters had to take him on seriously if they didn't want to die.

Since the situation had changed, the monsters decided to kill Felix first.

The rhino immediately charged his horn with electricity. Still, due to Felix's slash earlier, the horn was damaged, so the electricity was leaking out of the horn.

The bird had flown to the sky, causing ripples in the air. The tiger had covered his paw with a claw-shaped wind while the humanoid monster had looped around while clasping his hands, forming an avatar behind him.

Felix had known about their injuries. So, he knew who he should target first.

Without hesitation, Felix leaped toward the humanoid monster.

"!!!" The humanoid monster frowned while preparing himself to stop Felix even for just a second. At the same time, the other King Class Monsters chased after Felix. As long as they could stop Felix, they could take advantage of the little time they had when Felix had to spin his body to face them.

Unfortunately for them, Felix's strength was still greater than they expected.

The avatar put his hands in front of him, causing a powerful shock wave to blow Felix away. But the latter actually slashed downwards, throwing his Magic Power toward this shock wave and ultimately splitting the shock wave and the avatar in half.

"!!!" The humanoid monster had to think of a way to stop Felix. In the end, he released another avatar, but because the time wasn't enough, he only summoned the arm alone. This huge arm tried to capture Felix from the side.

Felix took a deep breath as his body started shining as if he had turned into light.

"!!!" The humanoid monster widened his eyes. His instinct was telling him to run right away if he didn't want to die.

He decided to do it by leaping to the side. But the next instant, Felix accelerated by turning into light and appeared behind him.

The blood waited for two seconds before it started spurting out of his arm. Felix actually cut his shoulder in that instant. The move was so fast that his flesh actually took a while to realize it had been cut.

"Aaaaahhhh!" The humanoid monster screamed in pain. As expected of a King Class Monster, although his injury was the worst compared to the rest, he still managed to escape death. After all, if he didn't move, Felix would have split him in half.

"Kh." Felix gritted his teeth. He had used this technique before. This technique could accelerate his speed to something similar to Theo's Alter Ego. However, it truly took a toll on his body just like how Theo used his Alter Ego in the past.

He would have a hard time fighting the opponent this time since he failed to kill the humanoid monster on that occasion.

The three King Class Monsters also had reached him. The rhino shot the lightning while the bird surrounded Felix with the ripples. The tiger was waiting for Felix in case he managed to avoid these attacks.

Felix raised his left hand, summoning a light to illuminate the area. The light purified the ripples like earlier while weakening the lightning.

With a single wave of his sword, the lightning was deflected to the side.

Still, Felix furrowed his eyebrows when stopping this lightning. The thunderous echo boosted the lightning's power, so it made his already numb body even weaker.

And this was the tiger's time to shine. He sneaked up on him, hitting Felix from above.

Felix tried to block it with his blade, but he was a tad too late. In the end, he only managed to raise his arm, barely blocking this paw.

The claw-shaped wind that covered the paw burst, swallowing Felix.

Felix managed to wrap his body in light, but the wind was violent enough to damage the light itself and graze his body.

Felix clicked his tongue while pushing his body downward to get away.

But because of the attack's power, he ended up crashing to the ground pretty hard.

The King Class Monsters tried to attack him before he could get up, but Felix's ability to endure pain was only second to Theo in the group.

So, his body managed to instinctively get up despite the shock and run away.

*Boom!*

The combined attack ended up missing him.

Felix hurriedly jumped into the sky again since this was the best position to fight them due to them having either big bodies or flying abilities.

Felix gritted his teeth, glaring at these monsters. He was wondering how to defeat them.

There was one word that kept replaying in his mind.

'Evolve.'

'Evolve.'

'Evolve.'
