God of Tricksters

The next day. 

All twelve people were standing not far from the Dark Poison Swamp, looking at it as they waited for the air to stop coming out of the ground.

Theo observed the terrain. Like a normal swamp, he could see small tunnels connecting the water and some snow that had been dyed green or orange. 

They had been contaminated by the poisonous substance, but luckily, there was no gas visible anymore. In other words, the snow managed to trap the gas inside. 

"We will soon go," said Lorenzo while looking at Ana's team. He recalled the discussion yesterday and continued, "Your team will handle the monsters like us. If there's a Supreme Rank Monster, we will cooperate with each other to defeat it. 

"If it's not possible, we will buy time until I can teleport us again. Okay?" Lorenzo asked for their confirmation.

"Got it." Ana agreed without hesitation.

Seeing less and less poisonous air coming out of the ground and floating not far from the ground, the group knew it was time for them to make a move. 

"Wear your mask. The mask should be able to withstand this level of poison, and by the time this mask is ineffective, the air should be good to breathe." Lorenzo announced.

All of them immediately picked up their masks as Lorenzo snapped his fingers, using his Teleportation.

The entire group disappeared as they were sent to a small plain inside the Dark Poison Swamp. 

Theo and the others immediately looked around to see whether they had a problem or not. 

As if noticing something, Theo suddenly leaped from the ground.

"Below the snow," Theo shouted as he saw a green-colored snake leaped into the air, trying to bite him.

However, it was soon sliced into two by Lorenzo as Theo shouted, "More are coming. They're not strong, but they have numbers."

"Use your Awareness to check your surroundings." Lorenzo and Ana shouted.

Six of them then leaped out of the ground as there were more and more snakes coming out. 

Ava kicked one of them while Theo pierced the one coming for Lorenzo.

After that, Theo looked to the side, wondering about the power of the other team. 

When Ana leaped into the air, two snakes came out at the same time. 

Without hesitation, Alea used both swords to take them down, leaving herself vulnerable. Another snake came out to attack her, but a small ice bolt fell on top of the snake and formed a crystal that trapped the snake before it shattered into pieces.

"Theo." Agata called him and asked, "Should I handle all of them? They're not strong."

"Got it. Just handle those around us." Theo nodded while warning all of them. "You better not move."

Lorenzo raised his hands in defeat. "Please." 

"Then…" Agata clapped her hands as pink spikes emerged from the ground with a snake on each of them. She had just killed around twenty snakes in an instant.

Luka couldn't help but whistle. He was surprised to see Theo's capable assistant in action. 

As for Agata, she had a good foundation in Awareness, especially her vision, from the beginning due to her illusionist job. Her Sense of Touch improved further after getting trained by Leonardo. So, killing hidden enemies underneath the snow was just a simple task for her.

Alea was astonished by her power. It turned out the woman was this strong. Even the current her didn't dare to underestimate this power.

"Oh, how I wish someone could do that too in this group…" Ana commented in a joking manner.

"Liza." Theo called Agata's fake name and commanded, "Handle them." 

"I didn't ask to be helped though." Ana glanced at Theo, politely declining the help as she was confident in killing them. At the same time, they weren't supposed to be helping each other because of Theo's statement.

However, Theo simply shrugged and said, "I don't have time to argue with you. Ten wolves are coming from the left. Lorenzo, Luka will handle them. I will deal with the monsters on the front. Ana's team will kill the monsters from the right. You will have more work later." 

"…" Ana listened to Theo's words, watched how Agata killed the remaining snakes, and found thirteen four-legged monsters not far from her. "That's our enemies, I guess."

Lorenzo and Luka brought their assistants, facing ten monsters that had a similar appearance to a deer. 

Meanwhile, Theo and Agata were watching ten gorilla-like creatures coming toward them. The monsters were running on two feet and had white fur, making them look like yeti, albeit they looked fat instead of muscular. 

An eagle appeared on top of Theo's shoulder, and it soon flew to the sky. Ava jumped on top of the snow carefully, searching for a gap to attack. Meanwhile, Agata had spread her pink smoke underneath the snow, prepared to help Theo at any given moment.

"Magic Bullets." Theo summoned two Magic Bullets and sent them toward the creatures. Suddenly, the Magic Bullets split into twenty, startling the fat yetis. 

The three in the front raised their big hands and covered them with a green-colored aura.

They smacked the Magic Bullets and experienced the explosion.

While they were busy with the Magic Bullets, Agata's spikes emerged from the snow and pierced the yetis.

"Roar." The yetis screamed in pain as they hurriedly smacked the spikes to shatter them.

However, Theo appeared on top of them, slicing its neck. "Alright. That's one."

Seeing Theo's appearance, four yetis leaped to attack him, but an eagle dove from the sky and hit the yeti on the head after covering its entire body with golden light. The head was crushed in an instant. 

At the same time, a rabbit kicked the yeti's head and snapped its neck effortlessly. 

With only two yetis remaining, Theo used his Magic Power Expansion to cover his spear before smashing the yeti's head. 

The last yeti obviously didn't like it and sent a punch at his face, but Magic Bullets looped around Theo's body and pierced his body as if they were expecting the yeti to come. 

"Five down.. Another five to go…" Theo muttered with a poker face as the fight wasn't even a challenge.
