God Of Tricksters

Theo glanced to the back. Since Hel was behind him, he had to stop this attack no matter what.

'The strings are too many to the point it looks like a wall…' Theo furrowed his eyebrows. He raised his sword and infused his illusion power.

With a single wave of his sword, he cut down more than fifty strings. However, there was only a small gap that became visible after cutting that many strings.

In addition, the bubbles seemed to be trying to reattach themselves. Even those that were not attached before began to extend their color.

It seemed that the slime was trying to take in the

'There should be a thousand of them at the very least. The strings aren't that small either. But more importantly, the strings are excluding something else.'

Theo recalled what happened when he struck those strings. He noticed that his Magic Power was diminished rapidly. That was why his illusion could only hit fifty strings.

'So, that's how it is. The 'Color' is a bit tough to cut. In addition, those empty bubbles are hiding the Devour, Seal, and Dissolve Authorities. And judging from their distance, he should be aware that my Blink has a limit.

'Hel has finally begun healing her body seriously, so if I wake her right now, she might receive some backlash.' When healing one's body, they had to circulate their energy to improve their natural regeneration in the said area. Theo knew that if they stopped the circulation, that energy would go berserk and even explode, causing even more injuries. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝗻𝗼𝘃𝐞𝗹．𝗻𝐞𝘁

That was why the only thing he could do was use his Blink to transport the Goddess of Death.

However, the slime seemed to have taken some precautions. He stretched his attacks farther than the blink's limit.

So, Theo had no choice but to use his illusion to break apart the slime's attack. Of course, he could easily recall the clone and use him to improve the Blink with both of them, but there was one more problem.

The slime had been scattering the slime on the ground.

The moment he summoned his clone, the slime would burst out of the ground and release his energy to either devour Theo's energy or dissolve the blink.

That was why the slime was leaving Theo no choice other than crushing the 'Color' attack.

Theo took a deep breath. There was something that he could imitate with his Mirage World. And that was something that he could use to escape from this predicament.

Theo summoned his Death Avatar.

The Death Avatar was still wearing his tuxedo like usual. However, dark energy soon warped his entire body before a skeletal hand broke it apart. The shock wave dispersed the remaining energy, showing a new form of the Death Avatar.

Instead of the gentleman-looking Death Avatar, the current appearance was similar to Hel's Avatar. It was a skeleton. The Death Eyes were emitting an extraordinary killing intent, the Death Body was forming a barrier around it, and the Death Domain had surrounded the area with mist.

However, there was one more thing that changed from the Death Avatar. It was the size. Its height seemed to have increased by two times and the wingspan only increased by half.

The Death Avatar spread his arms fully and tried to hug all the strings to put them together.

At the same time, the skeleton was releasing the same black energy like Hel's Death Avatar. But instead of Death, this Black Energy contained the Illusion.

All the strings that the Death Avatar gathered were cut as though a blade had just passed them.

The Dissolve Power made the Death Avatar vanish, but due to its size, the Death Avatar still managed to retain its form for three seconds before the Devouring Power sucked all the remaining Magic Power.

However, the Death Avatar's sacrifice paved the way for them as the wall finally crumbled.

Theo cut the remaining strings with his blade, allowing the bubbles to pass.

Knowing there was no need to maintain the bubbles, the slime retracted his Magic Power.

He had seen this kind of power from Theo since he was in the union.

But as expected, fighting it was harder than he thought.

Theo's three great laws: the mirage, the conversion, and the inversion.

In addition, the Heavenly Sovereign and Clone Theo still hadn't given up on stopping him.

The Heavenly Sovereign raised both hands.

The sky was split open and suddenly, indescribable pressure fell on top of the slime. The pressure was so incredible that the ground turned into a crater even with the slime reinforcing it.

It seemed the Heavenly Sovereign was trying to create a lake where it could store all the slimes. This way, they could prevent the slime from moving.

However, the slime formed a translucent blue barrier with a part of his body. This body was controlled by the color, so it was impossible to destroy it with mere pressure like how the Magma Dragon failed to destroy the shield.

The slime knew that the Heavenly Sovereign couldn't use any color to attack him and he wasn't big enough to cover him. That was why he had no weakness unlike the previous Red World Class Monster.

"Kh." The Heavenly Sovereign clenched his fists. He had tried his best, but all his power was rendered useless by the combination of four Authorities. Even with the help of the Mafia Queen, it was still impossible to break through the slime's defense.

Clone Theo couldn't help but come to him, asking, "So, do you have any idea how to kill this slime?"

"I should be the one asking you." The Heavenly Sovereign sighed in frustration. "It's hard to break through his defense and with the help of the Devour Authorities, the slime was like a fortress that wouldn't run out of Magic Power.

"If this continued, we would be the only ones that got exhausted. So, I have to ask you, do we have another way to defeat this slime? No, just breaking his defense is fine."

"Well… I do have a method. But executing it is a bit hard. We have to wait until the Goddess of Death recovers first. So, another five minutes," said Theo while furrowing his eyebrows.

"Five minutes, that is. I'll buy you that time."
