God of Tricksters

The spear clashed with the barrier for two seconds. Unfortunately, the momentum, the power, and the amount of Magic Power from this spear were simply too overwhelming compared to the thin barrier.

The spear cracked the barrier before crushing it into pieces. The barrier fell down like broken glass, making the monster panic.𝑂𝑣𝗅xt.𝗇𝓔t

He gritted his teeth, trying to release another ability to stop it. However, he underestimated Valerie too much.

As the two King Class Monsters said, although she didn’t have an Order, her strength was already approaching that stage.

This God Killing Spear utilized its full might, causing a fluctuation of Magic Power around the area as if the Magic Power was being pierced as well.

“Kh…” The guy gritted his teeth and tried to escape. He might not be able to utilize a huge ability that could deflect it, but he still managed to create a small barrier to give him time.

​ The barrier was shattered in a split second, but that was enough to let him survive.

*Bam!*

The spear reached the ground, missing the guy’s body. Though, it still punctured the monster’s entire shoulder.

At the same time, the spear turned the ground into a crater, making the monster’s poster unstable.

Seeing this opportunity, Valerie flapped her white wings, flying straight to this monster with her spear.

“!!!” The monster stopped as soon as he noticed Valerie’s presence. He turned around while letting out a roar.

*Roar!*

Before Valerie reached him, she noticed the monsters changing their aim. Instead of the human army, they were actually targeting Valerie.

Valerie might be strong, but fending off all these attacks was still too much for her.

“Hahaha. You’re going to be finished. Do you think we are fighting like you?” The monster laughed for the first time, showing that he was smart enough to make a conversation in human language. And more importantly, it meant the monster was a General Class Monster.

“…” Valerie didn’t have any reaction. She was staring at this monster behind her helmet as if nothing mattered as long as she could kill him.

The monster hurriedly used another barrier to stop Valerie’s movement. He planned to use that opportunity to strike her down.

Sadly for him, Valerie had seen through such a plan since the beginning. The moment she saw that barrier, she threw the spear to the ground on her left.

The spear suddenly had a chain attached to its back. Valerie used the chain to pull her to the side, forcefully changing her direction.

“Huh?” The monster was dumbfounded because he didn’t expect his opponent to be able to react to his attack. He felt his opponent manage to see through his train of thought.

Valerie, on the other hand, maintained her calm as though everything was according to her plan.

After avoiding the monster’s barrier, the wings flapped again, changing direction again.

It turned out the chain could be used not only to shift her direction but also to increase her momentum.

With this, the monster had no time to escape. Valerie waved her spear with precision and speed.

“Kh!” The monster raised his other shoulder to block this spear. The latter ended up hitting the upper arm, but it only made a big wound, not cutting it like the God Killing Spear.

After all, the moment Valerie passed the monster. She didn’t bother to look back or turn around to release another attack. She only pushed her spear backward as the Magic Power formed another spearhead.

“!!!” The monster widened his eyes in shock while lowering his head, finding his chest being penetrated by a spear. “Impossible…”

The monster never expected Valerie to be able to defeat him this easily, especially since he had received power from a King Class Monster.

Before he fell to the ground, Valerie said, “The power of a King Class Monster is overwhelming, but the strong one is the King Class Monster. Unlike him, you can’t release its mighty power. This is your weakness.”

As Valerie said, the monsters could only receive this power after assimilating with the new part. It meant their power was incomplete.

So, Valerie took advantage of that lack of skill to defeat this monster. As long as she could kill this monster before it finished adjusting its power on the battlefield, they would be able to win.

“I’m done,” Valerie muttered while glancing to the side. She knew Ray was still in a predicament.

Sadly, she didn’t have enough strength to help him.

Instead of giving him some help, Valerie actually did two things. Firstly, she regrouped with the Griffith Family’s squad and controlled them according to her wish.

She wanted to kill as many monsters as possible so that Ray would have an easier time. Even though there was only ten percent that the King Class Monsters allowed the rest of the monsters to attack Ray, she still couldn’t ignore that ten percent. In other words, Ray actually fought two monsters of the same level while worrying about the support attack.

This situation showed Ray’s current strength. It wasn’t easy to get this strength after all.

Valerie looked at Ray for a moment before joining the rest of the group to kill the monsters around.

“What? They are trying to thin out our force?” The harpy frowned, feeling something wrong with Valerie’s action.

“It won’t be possible. These people might be strong, especially that woman, but they aren’t strong enough to kill all of them. Don’t under—” The slime summoned its humanoid figure to communicate, but before it finished its words, the slime stopped as though it noticed some movements.

“…” The slime turned around as if trying to figure out the situation.

But this was where it got the shock of its life. The slime saw two thousand people slipping past the melee monsters. It turned out Valerie, Ray, and the rest of the Griffith Family were only the bait. Because of the show earlier, especially Valerie’s God Killing Spear, the monsters ended up focusing on them, not realizing that the humans had slipped past their people and started approaching them.

And by the time they realized it, it was too late.

“Attack!” Valerie shouted.
