God of Tricksters

Chapter 1155 Doubt

　　”…” Nella narrowed her eyes, observing Theo’s movement. However, the mist truly made it hard for her to see what was going on.

On the other hand, when she glanced at Ergene, she could see her overwhelming power, cutting down the enemies one by one.

However, the most chaotic battlefield was on Theo’s side.

’What’s going on there? I can’t really see anything. I want to see Joker’s strength… I still believe that Joker is connected to Theo. After all, Theo knew Maya from the Starry Group. And he has been controlling the situation this whole time like Theo always did in the Grand Gaia Competition. Is he really Theo?’ Nella was curious.

She almost forgot that she had been too focused on Theo due to the side effect of the Mind Elder’s power.

’Kh.’ She gritted her teeth, frustrated. In the end, she glanced at the battle beyond them. ‘Still, this is truly a unique group. That assassin is strong… even I will have a hard time finding one like him in the Griffith Family.

’The same applies to that pianist. He can both support the allies and weaken the enemies. And the sound can be heard far away, allowing his area of support to be enormous.

’The painter is quite unique as well, but his role is more like support to Joker. Even so, with Joker’s ability, it can become a terrifying ability as well.

’And now, there is that woman. She is young and talented. Without any support, she can reach this point. Not only that, but she also has a brain that can understand the situation.

’They can easily become one of the top groups in a country.’ She examined all their qualities and realized why Joker became one of the most important people in Star Group. ‘Now that I think about it, Uncle Ray is planning something big soon. That’s why he sent me to this cooperation.

’He wants to know whether it’s possible or not to cooperate with the Star Group. It seems that the Star Group has received a favor from the president too. They’re going to rise even further.’

Nella contemplated what she needed to report. However, Nella’s thoughts alone also reflected the might of the Griffith Family. Even with Ray’s small faction, they could know the secret relationship between the US President and the Star Group. The main family could do much more than this.

And not far from Nella was the scary part of the Griffith Family.

The ten people that were chasing after Nella had stationed themselves near them, observing the situation.

”This is…” One of the Mythical Rank Experts from the Griffith Family observed what happened on Theo’s battlefield.

”What’s wrong?”

”Their confusion is weird. They’re chopping their own comrades as if they’re bewitched by something?”

”Hm? Illusion?”

”I think so.”

”But Joker has never used an illusion.”

”Is he hiding it this whole time?”

”I believe so. Why did he hide it this whole time? But he might just learn it too…”

”The proficiency is too good for that. If he can learn such a thing in such a short period, it means he’s a monstrous talent for learning new things… That sounds like…”

”Theodore Griffith. The biggest genius in learning.”

”Impossible. Theodore Griffith is dead.”

”But no one could see his corpses.”

”That’s kinda true.”

”Wait a minute. Before that, I want to mention something. In the Starry Group, Maya Hamilton seems to have accepted someone new as her assistant. He is a Supreme Rank Expert, and he seems to be close to her.”

”Theodore Griffith is close to Maya, right?”

”Yes. That’s why I think that guy is Theodore Griffith. We don’t know about Joker though. After all, if we take another look at it, Joker’s power is different from Theodore Griffith… You should have seen that fire spear, right?”

”Isn’t the illusion from that painter?”

”Who knows. My point is that other than the illusion, Joker is different from Theodore Griffith. He is good at using the sword, unlike Theodore Griffith.”

”So, we have two suspects… What should we do?”

”The family wants to eliminate the future trouble, Theodore Griffith. So, it’s obvious that we need to kill both suspects.”

”But it’s not the time to provoke the Star Group. With the help of the US President, they might worsen the family condition after those traitors weaken us. At the same time, it will be hard to fight against four Mythical Rank Experts, especially the swordsman that cut down many people in an instant. He’s stronger than any of us here.”

”That’s true. What should we do then?”

”I suggest one of you fight Joker and take off his mask. This way, we will know whether he’s Theodore Griffith or not.”

”But he might be using a face mask.”

”Whether it’s a face mask or illusion, we’ll know. In fact, if he uses it, he must be Theodore Griffith. We shall retreat and inform the main family. I believe this is more important than a mere Nella Griffith.”

”Alright. Here is the plan.”

While they were discussing their own plan, Theo, who was unaware of this hidden danger, kept killing the enemies one by one.

However, Theo would once again find out why the Griffith Family was scary and why his parents couldn’t even escape from them in the past.

”Aaahhhhh!”

”Help!”

The chaos still continued because of Theo. After two more minutes, Theo somehow killed fifty people with their own help.

Since the population was scarcer, the Death Domain became less useful. In the end, Theo retracted the Death Domain, allowing everyone to see what was going on.

”What?!”

Obviously, they were stunned by the sight. Many corpses were lying on the ground, and there was a single man standing in the middle of the corpses. It was Theo.

He looked like a Death God that had brought an impending doom to this battlefield.

”How many have he killed?”

”Only a Supreme Rank Expert can actually kill these many people?”

”Impossible.”

They refused to believe it, but their eyes couldn’t lie. It was truly horrifying.

Even Ergene, who was on the other side, couldn’t help but check Theo’s condition.

’What? He is only a Supreme Rank, right? Even I only killed 35 people in three minutes… He is 30 percent faster than me?’ Ergene remembered Theo’s confidence and realized it wasn’t an empty word. Theo truly had the power to win against her.

*Boom!*

Suddenly, a huge explosion occurred. An explosion on a battlefield was something normal, but Theo and Ergene suddenly turned their heads around to the hill they came from. 

Yes, the explosion came from the hill where Nella was supposed to hide.
