God of Tricksters

Chapter 386 - Potential Danger

Four days later.

"Cannon Blast." Theo kicked a monster right on the stomach.

The monster itself had a similar appearance to a bear, but the arms were thin, giving enough speed instead of power on its sweep. The body was also not that big, but it was certainly taller than a bear.

With the ten-foot-tall height, Theo's straight kick hit right on his belly.

The energy from the Cannon Blast dispersed.

Fenrir could turn the ground into a crater with this power. Although Theo wasn't as good as him, there was a trace of a spiral on the fur, showing the effect of his Cannon Blast.

At the same time, the energy ripped the skin a little bit as blood began to flow out of the wounds.

Still, the majority of the force launched the monster back as forty Magic Bullets hit the same spot in rapid succession, giving an extra thrust to the kick.

"Roar!" The bear let out a huge roar, but the skin couldn't contain the combined power of Theo's Cannon Blast, External Flow, Telekinesis, and Magic Bullets, resulting in a head-size hole on its belly.

With that hole in the body, the bear fell to its knees, and Theo sliced its neck to deliver the killing blow.

[Killed a Ban Bear.]

[EXP+15,090]

Theo took a deep breath and wiped the sweat on his forehead. "Alright. The situation is going according to the plan. I still have five more days to increase seven levels. With the current pace, I should have a long time to spare later."

Theo looked around, seeing trees all over the places with a river on his right side.

"Anyway, I have been following the track Alea sent earlier to see what kind of terrain we are going to cross," Theo muttered before looking a bit far away to the west. "Either way, going too far will just mess up my schedule, so I will just hunt around here and return to Ark City."

Right after he said those words, buzzing sounds of the bush and grass began to fill Theo's ears. The sound was followed by a huge roar two hundred feet away from him.

"!!!" Alarmed, Theo summoned his clone, preparing to fight.

"Ha, ha! Help!" A man's voice resounded in the forest. Theo furrowed his eyebrows and saw the figure that came into his vision.

He looked like a male in his twenties. His green hair had turned into blood red that seemed to be not his own blood.

As if noticing another presence, the man turned around to see Theo, only to find an empty space.

Theo had escaped since he didn't want to get into trouble by saving this man. After all, if he was chased by a monster, the man must want him to bring him back to Ark City, wasting his time. That was the last thing he wanted to do right now.

To his surprise, that decision turned out to be the correct one. Another shadow emerged from the bush and jumped on top of the human.

"Hi!" The man panicked for a second, but that was the last thing he could do before the shadow killed him with a wave of its hand that seemed to be covered by dark red fur with claws as sharp as that of a wolf.

But what shocked him the most was the fact that this figure seemed to be a human. His body, head, and all other limbs other than his right hand were that of a human. However, this human ripped apart the guy's head and devoured his body.

"!!!" Theo's expression became serious as he muttered inwardly, "Hmm? Is the other guy a human? But he is eating human flesh… Raw. Cannibal? But this is already a civilized society, so there shouldn't be something like that here. Even if you are a criminal, you can hunt many monsters here.

"But…" Theo took another look at the mysterious person's eyes and saw a sharp-pointed light that glowed on the right eyeball, making him doubt this guy's identity.

Suddenly, another person emerged from the bush and looked at the corpse. The next guy seemed to have the same feature as the first one. The only difference between them was the color of their fur.

'I thought about adjusting myself to the track environment so as to not become a burden, but to think I found something more… I need to warn Alea later.' Theo thought and observed them a little bit, albeit his choice to stay was the wrong one.

As if sensing Theo's presence, the second guy turned around with his bloodshot eyes.

"!!!" Theo felt their eyes intertwined and took a step back, preparing to run. "Oops."

But before he could use his Flowmotion to escape, his Awareness picked a presence coming at him. The next second, the tree he used to hide was ripped apart by the wolf's hand.

The mysterious guy revealed himself and struck Theo with his claw.

Clone Theo quickly made his way between them and waved his right hand to knock the claw away.

"Cannon Blast."

He used everything to strike the wolf's paw, but the claws also began to glow.

When Theo hit the hand, the claw twisted and reached Theo's hand, ripping it apart.

"!!!" Theo quickly used his Flowmotion to escape.

Meanwhile, Clone Theo kept observing the enemy's movement while clicking his tongue. "I couldn't test his strength because the claws ripped my hand apart as soon as my attack landed, but I can say that this one has speed and flexibility. The level… It's probably above 280. It's quite dangerous."

Right after that assessment, the mysterious guy roared to the sky.

Roar.

The sound echoed through the forest and alarmed the other one that was trying to have his fill. But it didn't end there. When the other guy howled, numerous howlings followed after him, shattering the silence.

The original body turned around while taking out his Skylink, pointing at the mysterious person.

Name: Mutated Chimera Wolf

Level: 300-320

A nomadic mutated wolf that changed its appearance based on what it eats. Always moving in a pack.

"Well… That sounds dangerous. There are at least a hundred there…" Theo sighed and used his clone to make them busy while he flew to the sky, escaping by flying to get out of that place sooner. "I need to inform Alea later."
