God of Tricksters

"You… You bastard! We just wanted to survive in this cruel world and you forced yourself on me and beat me up like this?!"

Her shout immediately woke everyone up, knowing something happened.

Ellen and Sihan frowned, wondering how Sonia ended up in Theo's tent. They thought she had gone back earlier, but they seemed to be wrong.

Before Ellen and Sihan came to her, she crawled on the ground and revealed her face and bruises. She cried with a terrified expression. "Help… Please help me. He tried to force himself on me. He told me that as long as I slept with him, we could stay for a little longer, but he ended up beating me."

Ellen and Sihan exchanged looks with the same expression. They both were clueless about this situation.

There was only one person in that tent and it was Theo, but the fact that she suddenly went missing when they tried to help them made her suspicious. They simply couldn't believe Theo asked her to do something like this. Theo wasn't that kind of person.

When her teammates came out of the tent and saw her condition, they quickly surrounded her and looked around with a terrified expression, especially Theo's tent, trying to protect their friends.

Suddenly, her teammate shouted, "Is this the reason you accepted us? You help us just so you can rape our teammate?"

Alea and Laust woke up and came out of their tents with a clueless expression, not understanding the problem.

"What has happened?" A shout resounded in their ears as Lex ran toward Sonia with a concerned face. "What happened? How could you end up like this?"

He was her boyfriend, so it was no wonder he would be so concerned. If glares could kill, he would have butchered everyone here. Unfortunately, Lex could only stare at them with hatred, never expecting that Alea and her friends would do something this inhumane.

Alea stood in the middle of the camp with a darkened expression. She could only look down with her body trembling. She appeared to be angry and disappointed in Theo, so they wanted to gaslight her to expel Theo from the group.

At this time, Theo finally came out of his tent with an indifferent look as if he had done nothing wrong.

"You Bastard! What are you doing to my girlfriend? I know that we're refugees here, but what you have done is too far! You just raped my girlfriend. I'm going to kill you!" Lex, who couldn't contain his anger, gritted his teeth and threw a fist.

Theo glanced at him and raised his hand, catching his fist and hitting him right on the ribs with his Monkey Fist. That fist contained all his strength and broke a few of Lex's ribs. He launched Lex back to his teammate, but that moment of carelessness cost him so much to the point he couldn't even stand.

Blood also started coming out of his mouth as he clenched his fists and glared at Theo.

The remaining four turned hostile to him. Not only Theo rejected them, but he also wanted to rape their friend and hit Lex.

Sihan appeared between them and Theo, glaring at the four with a cold gaze. "One move, blood will spill."

"You! Your teammate has tried to rape our teammate! That person is not a human!"

When they argued, they didn't realize Alea's expression had turned dark. Her hands had been on her sword this whole time, not because of Theo's action but due to her negligence. To think the person she wished to help would betray them… It just reinforced Theo's ideology. And Alea knew this incident would make him even harder to see the "light" that would become his kindness.

However, this was her thought. No one shared the same opinion because they didn't know Theo's personality.

And they foolishly looked at Sihan and Alea. "Is this really how the Eilric Family acts?"

Ellen's laughter suddenly stopped them as they looked at her. She looked at them with eyes full of killing intent. "You ungrateful wretches! Now you're claiming something this useless? If Theo is like how you described, he would have done it to Alea already. If you want to accuse someone, it's better to do it to the other guys in our group since it's more believable."

The group was bewildered and frowned. When they wanted to rebuke him, another distraction appeared.

"Oh!" Phyrill's shout stunned everyone as they turned around, looking at him. They saw them picking up a Skylink that had been resting on the ground, facing the entire group.

Phyrill noticed that the Skylink was active and made an evil smirk. He said, "Look at this… This Skylink is active this whole time. And it seems the camera is working…"

"!!!" Everyone dropped their jaws as they stared at him with complicated expressions.

Phyrill glanced at Sihan and opened his mouth. "I believe this is yours."

Sihan shrugged and explained, "I agreed to accept them because it was easier to explain their behavior to the princess. Action speaks louder than words after all."

"Haha, indeed." Phyrill didn't stop there. Before they could even recover, he dropped another bomb by taking his Skylink out and showing it to them. "By the way, I have my own Skylink here. It has been recording in front of my tent to make sure I don't lose something, but it seems my camera has captured something interesting."

Sonia's face turned pale as she looked at Phyrill's tent, facing the spot where she acted to make Ellen and Sihan leave.

"If we check the recordings, won't it be better to understand what's going on?" Phyrill smiled like that of a devil, controlling their emotions, conversations, and lives at this moment. "In addition to my Skylink, it is double the proof!"

However, there was another miscalculation in Sonia's idiotic plan. Theo already suspected something would happen during the night, so he put down both his Skylink and arm guards to his side. He even put an effort to hide his Skylink between his arm guards so it will capture all things happening in the tent without getting found out.

Before the problem got resolved, a Skylink flew in the air, spun a few times, and landed on someone's hand. Yes, it was indeed on the devil's… Phyrill's hand.

And when they turned around to see who threw the Skylink, they found Theo pointing his hand at Phyrill with a cool expression. He said, "Make it triple."
