God of Tricksters



The Mafia Queen, Alexandra Boric, was smiling when looking at the lineup from afar. It was truly the strongest lineup she could think of.

She couldn't help but remember when Theo came to her doorstep. Unlike the others, the Mafia Queen was excluded from the last meeting because she was to remain hidden the whole time.

"It's surprising to see you visiting me like this. Does this mean I will have a role in the upcoming battle?" The Mafia Queen smirked, teasing Theo. Of course, she already knew he wanted to hide her just for this battle.

Theo shrugged his shoulders, ignoring her comments. "Well, I come here to request your help. I want you to replace the Time God to protect the base. However, you are to head to the battlefield ten minutes after the Time God leaves."

"Hoh? If I have to become the last line of defense, shouldn't I remain in the base? I mean, we have a spy that is lurking around to cause some chaos."

"You don't have to worry. I have made preparations for the slime and the safety of the base. The reason why you're there for a while is to make people believe that you are still around. Meanwhile, you are actually heading to the battlefield to help us. There will be a big problem happening on the rear, so your help will be able to solve all those problems."

"Interesting." Contemplating, Alexandra narrowed her eyes as though she was trying to see through Theo's plan. After two minutes, she raised a finger, asking, "Sorry, but do you not need my power to assist you?"New n𝙤vel chapters are published on

"I need your power, but I think I can manage without it. That's why I want you to focus on the rear. If it's consolidated enough, you can consider joining us. Nonetheless, as long as you solve the problem on the rear, the contribution should be enough to etch your mark in history. And you should get a quiet place in the new world."

Alexandra Boric was quite interested in the idea. She would be a prominent figure in the world after the war. And with Theo's help, there was no way her people would be mistreated. Of course, she had to govern her area better so that the people were not afraid of the stigma regarding the 'mafia.'

In addition, there would be a lot of benefits that Theo could provide himself. So, it didn't take too long for her to decide.

"Alright. I'll follow your plan. After listening to your plan, it seems that the reason you want me to hide this whole time is to create an illusion that I'm there as a trump card. And since you want me to replace the Time God, it will make people think my role is only to replace him, not join the battlefield. I see. It can increase people's morale and strength when I suddenly appear on the battlefield."

Theo nodded with a serious expression. "In that case, I can leave everything to you. I haven't told my grand… I mean, Sir War Saint, about this. So, you should find the right timing yourself."

"You don't need to mind. Because of my abilities, I am already trained for that. I know the best timing and the best position to help the bigger picture."

Theo and Alexa smiled at each other as they shook each other's hands, reaching an agreement.

After remembering the plan, Alexa was satisfied with the progress of the battle. "It seems that everything is within his calculation."

Since the situation was already within Theo's expectation, she should also play her parts so that they could win this battle.

…

The Time God and Loki glared at each other. Loki knew that the Time God would be the biggest hindrance for the others when fighting the slime.

So, he had to move the Time God away.

Of course, Theo was the first one to use the World Re-Creation.

He expanded the reality between the slime and the Time God, trying to separate them.

"!!!" The slime and the Time God instantly reacted. The slime was using his power to dissolve the World Re-Creation while the Time God tried to freeze the moving reality.

Surprisingly, the World Re-Creation was stopped. Unlike any other opponents he had this far, they were the only ones that could stop the World Re-Creation. Even the original Theo couldn't do it.

Theo knew that these two were on a whole different level. However, Loki didn't plan to let everything end in vain.

He activated the Mind Image, planting an image that the reality was still expanding in both the slime and the Time God's minds.

They were confused because they should have stopped it. They even poured more power, but it didn't change anything.

After fighting the God of Mischief for a moment, the Time God and the slime knew he had a power that couldn't be affected by their power unless they understood the concept behind that ability.

In the end, they got separated… or at least in their mind. As for the reality, they hadn't moved a single spot since they were still using their power.

But Theo could feel the change.

'Their power… is decreasing?' Theo looked at both their expressions and realized it was the Mind Image. 'I see. One body and mind… That's the concept of the Mind Image. If, in the illusion, they fall from high ground, they might get some injuries even if, in reality, they haven't moved a single inch.

'However, if the God of Mischief uses his ability like that, it would give away the identity of his power. That's why he is camouflaging his ability with this kind of trick. As expected, he is a monster as well…

'To think he would be able to use an A Rank Skill to fool a Singularity Rank Expert and the World Strongest Monster.'

Theo took a deep breath. Even though he had some confidence in fighting Loki, it didn't change the fact there were still a lot of things he could learn from Loki.

Loki also smiled. As if he understood Theo's thoughts, he muttered inwardly, 'A high-ranked ability doesn't mean a powerful ability. If you are creative enough, choose the correct timing, and form a perfect combination, even an F Rank Skill can kill a normal Mythical Rank Expert.'
