God of Tricksters

In the face of the black beam, all existence beyond Saints were trembling. They knew that if they tried to take this on, they would die. Just like how Theo and Hel managed to kill their opponents in one hit, this beam had the same ability.

Yet, to everyone’s surprise, none of the Saints that were about to be hit by the black beam planned to do anything. They simply moved forward without any change of expression.

It felt like they were confident that the black beam wouldn’t be able to do anything to them.

However, a black ball soon flew from the side and stopped on the black beam’s trajectory.

The moment the black beam hit this black ball, it immediately splashed like a liquid.

The wolf didn’t give any reaction since it didn’t have any will. But it still looked at the black ball and the black beam. He even increased the output of the beam, trying to overpower it.

Unfortunately for him, it was useless. The black ball was able to withstand the power like it was nothing.

Ultimately, the wolf ended up retracting its beam to see who managed to stop him.

When everything settled down, the black ball melted to the ground, revealing a small black figure that stood on the beam’s trajectory, stopping it with its body.

Yes, the one stopping the beam was none other than the Dark Saint. He glanced at Theo with a smile. “As expected, they also have someone at my level. It’s no wonder why the slime is a hard opponent. How many Saints are under the slime?”

“I don’t know. And it seems you are suited to take this monster on.” Theo passed him with a nod.

“Of course. The wolf’s power… I don’t know. It’s very similar to mine, but it’s not the same since there’s no way two Saints with the same power exist at the same time. So, Darkness, Black or something along the line…” The Dark Saint nodded, assuring him that he would win against the wolf.

In the end, both of them moved together. But whenever the wolf attacked, the Dark Saint would be the one to step forward to take it on.

Theo and the others were to conserve their energy. Of course, Theo still aimed for the King Class Monsters scattered in the area.

But before he could kill another World Class Monster, there was a shadow of a huge mountain gradually appearing in the distance.

“Hmm?” Theo narrowed his eyes.

“That’s… not a mountain, right?” The Sword Saint frowned.

“That’s our opponent this time, the slime.” Theo nodded with a serious expression. “He is closer than we expected… I’m afraid the slime already knows about our plan and is trying to get as close as possible to our army…”

“But if that happens, won’t there be a lot of casualties on our sides? After all, the slime seems to be able to move through the ground…” The Sword Saint frowned.

“Yeah. That’s why we have to speed up.” Theo sighed. As expected of another race, they managed to come up with a plan to counter his own plan. This made the slime even more dangerous than anyone they had faced so far.

The slime managed to force Theo to shift his strategy.

In the end, Theo stepped in the air while using his Telekinesis to its full power, launching him toward the slime.

The Sword Saint and the Heavenly Sovereign followed him without hesitation.

“Hehe… This is the time for us to fight.” The Heavenly Sovereign smirked, feeling excited.

The Goddess of Death also stepped forward since it was her role to hold back the slime.

But it seemed that the situation wasn’t in their favor.

There was a huge trident flying from the right.

“!!!” Theo and the others felt it and hurriedly stopped. But the Heavenly Sovereign chose to be the first one to make his move. He formed a huge trigram in front of him to block the trident while shouting, “Go. I’ll handle this…”

Theo and the Sword Saint nodded to each other and increased their speed. They didn’t care if the trident would hit them since they believed that the Heavenly Sovereign was strong enough to stop it.

When the trident was about to reach them, the Heavenly Sovereign stood in its way with the huge trigram.

A clicking sound like two metals hitting each other echoed on the battlefield. The collision caused a shock wave that blew away the normal monsters underneath them.

“…” The Heavenly Sovereign narrowed his eyes, feeling something weird from this trident. As expected, the trident suddenly flared up and caused a powerful explosion.

*Boom!*

The explosion didn’t seem to break the trigram, but the blast somehow blew the Heavenly Sovereign away. He ended up crashing a few hundred feet from his location. And the monsters around him immediately changed their direction, trying to kill him. Even the King Class Monsters approached him.

The Heavenly Sovereign clicked his tongue when he saw the incoming monsters. Though, Theo and the Sword Saint didn’t even worry about him. They only glanced to the right to see who could beat the Heavenly Sovereign like that.

Surprisingly, there were two monsters standing in the air. One was a humanoid monster. Its skin was red and it had a pair of red bat wings. It would look like a demon if not for the fact that this humanoid monster didn’t have a face or any other body feature like a human. It only had the same structure and posture.

Next to him flew half-human, half-fish. It was a male mermaid, a merman. But to their surprise, there was no way a monster that was supposed to live on the sea would appear here. He was even flying.

But the fish’s body had red skin, and some slime was coming out of it. He realized that the monster seemed to be from the sea race. The slime must have forced them to come and kill this person so that he could use him as his pawn.

These two were the ones that caused such damage. Even the Heavenly Sovereign wouldn’t expect he would be attacked by two World Class Monsters at once.
