God of Tricksters

In the meantime, Rea had been preparing for the incoming battle. She frowned every time she heard the report from Logan.

"This is…" Rea furrowed her eyebrows. "Are you sure about it?"

"Yes. We don't know the reason as well, but all our elite teams are eliminated. Some of them managed to give us some messages, telling us they were ambushed by Mythical Rank Monsters along with one King Class Monster."

"…" Rea frowned. Even though they were fighting another intelligent race, they never expected they would act this way. "Why do they send forth a King Class Monster?"

"We don't know about it either. Where is Theodore Griffith?"

"He hasn't come back." Rea shook her head, assessing the situation calmly. "There is no reason for the monsters to send forth a King Class Monster yet. They might act as if expecting us to come, but it's not at the point of sending a King Class Monster…"

Logan also furrowed his eyebrows, not knowing how this could happen. He agreed to the plan because it was reasonable from his point of view. Yet, the monsters actually behaved weirdly.

Unlike Logan, who was working with Rea, other people from the other fronts were complaining.

Rea was facing the Transcendent Level Experts in Oregon.

"Where is Theodore Griffith?" One of them raised his voice while slamming the table. "Do you know what we've lost here?"

Rea didn't say anything. She maintained her calm expression as if everything went according to plan.

"Nagasawa Rea. Don't think just because you're the Sword Saint's daughter, you can escape the responsibility! Bring Theodore Griffith right now!" Another one snarled at her.

However, there was one person whose remark made her angry. He was a middle-aged man with a long chin. After reaching this situation, he was the first to blame Theo.

"This is why we can't rely on Theodore Griffith. He must be drunk in his victory and think everything will go according to his plan the whole time. No matter how reliable he looks, he is still a brat who is wet behind his ears."

Rea frowned when she heard that remark. "Mr. Salvatore, I don't mind if you complain about me, but I don't appreciate your remark about my teacher. Please take back your words."

"Taking back my words? I'm simply stating the fact. See the cost of us trusting that brat? We've lost many elite teams to the monsters!" Salvatore harrumphed. "We're the ones who should be asking him to take responsibility for this matter. Do you think we'll let this go with just an apology?"

Rea gritted her teeth. When she was about to explode, Anna suddenly entered the camera and said with a smile, "Mr. Salvatore. This plan has been approved by the military headquarters as well as the president himself. Just because Theo has given this plan doesn't mean the plan will go through the staff in the white house or the president himself. Unless you're implying that's the case… Then, this is not a matter between us anymore. Instead, it's your business with the headquarters."

Salvatore's body shook for a bit while he glared at her. "What did you say?"

"I'm simply stating the facts, unlike you, who love twisting the facts to fit your agenda." Agata shrugged her shoulders.

"You! Do you think you can be responsible for your words just because you're his woman?"

"I'm simply speaking as a former special adviser of United Asia's Combined Force under the supervision of Heavenly Sovereign, Sword Saint, and Daemon, the three big heroes. If you think I'm still inexperienced, then please call the Combined Force to get them to explain my deeds." Agata still maintained her calm expression, not scared of the threat.

"You…" Salvatore gritted his teeth. He didn't have anything to rebuke her anymore. Unlike Rea, Agata was more experienced in conversation like this as she almost tricked Theo a few times. Even Salvatore got owned by her to the point he could only shout, "Hmph. Then, what's the plan? Theodore Griffith can only hide behind a woman."

Rea had enough of the disrespect, but Agata placed her hand on her shoulder, stopping Rea. After that, she said, "So, you want a plan from the likes of us? That's right… You said earlier that we've drunk in our victory. Don't you think it's unwise to ask us for a plan?"

Salvatore wanted to burst out, but the other Transcendent Level Expert stopped him by asking, "Miss Agata. Please understand Mr. Salvatore's condition. After all, he has just lost several elite teams, making him doubt Mr. Theo's plan. However, we should stand together right now because the threat is greater than we expected.

"If you have a better plan that can match the situation, that'll be for the best. After all, we don't have Theo now, so I hope you can give some suggestions."

"…" Agata didn't have a change of expression. She only looked at him as if she had lost her interest and said, "The plan will be explained by Rea, his student."

"Me?" Rea looked at her dumbfoundedly.

"Theo gave the command to you, so you're the one creating the plan. I'm sure you've thought of a way to adjust to the current situation, right?" Agata smiled, assuring her.

"That's…" Rea took a deep breath and finally explained her plans. "My current plan is to send one or two Transcendent Level Experts to attack them swiftly. It's not that different from the previous plan. We're going to hit their mountain and destroy it.

"There must be a reason for them stacking it into a mountain instead of spreading it evenly. So, destroying the mountain should buy some time. With the strength of a Transcendent Level Expert, we should be able to retain our power."

The plan was reasonable. A Transcendent Level Expert's prowess was more than many elite teams.

But as expected, Salvatore was the first one to object. "What a dumb plan. Do you know what it means for us to risk our lives? What if the enemy knows about it and ambushes us too? The moment we fall, the war will be our loss. Do you think we'll just follow the plan of someone like you?"
