God Of Tricksters

Chapter 655 – Taunt

The roots and branches were snapped and the barricade was torn by the monsters. Because they were controlled, they didn't care about the pain they suffered and continued making their way toward Theo and Agata.

"It doesn't look like they're going to let us escape." Agata frowned.

"I know. Prepare to dodge." Theo nodded with a serious expression.

Just like he expected, the Dryad controlled the trees to attack them.

The trees extended their roots to stab them while the branches connected to other trees.

The Dryad seemed to be preventing him from escaping from this forest, but he still didn't understand why she bothered to create a net above their heads. In the end, he could escape with his Blink.

His answer soon came in the form of action. The branches that had been connected to each other started to snap and rain them down.

These weren't normal branches. Instead, it was sharp branches that used the force from the snap to launch itself to Theo.

Theo frowned and immediately put up a shield by using his Ring of Honor to block them. Then, he asked, "By the way, how many monsters have we killed so far?"

"Around a hundred have died. Another two hundred are injured. The rest have their path blocked by the monsters in front of them, so we won't be facing them anytime soon." Agata reported with a curious expression.

"Okay."

"How should we escape?"

"Why should we escape? I already said we're going to kill that Dryad."

"I mean, it's impossible to handle all these monsters. Even if we use all our Magic Power, it's not enough to kill them." Agata shook her head as she became even more curious about Theo's plan.

"Well, I will show you how." Theo smirked and said, "Follow me."

Suddenly, Theo shifted his direction a little bit. The monsters kept chasing him while the Dryad was staring at Theo in confusion.

She didn't know what kind of plan Theo had, considering Theo was soon going to be cornered. She had made several barricades at the edge of her territory by using the monsters and trees, so it was impossible for Theo to escape.

Even Agata was confused as this must be Theo's new trick. She just followed him while fending off the enemies, keeping their distance.

"You won't be able to achieve whatever you're planning to do." The Dryad started making her move again.

The vines emerged from the ground and slammed them, but Clone Theo appeared and used his Magic Augmentation and Magic Power Expansion to cover his hand.

He struck the vines and used that extraordinary force from the Magic Power Expansion to rip the vines apart. He managed to do it for four vines before the rest returned back to the ground as if they were afraid to experience the same thing.

The Dryad was clenching her hands as Clone Theo flew a few feet above the ground, so she could see him.

"What's wrong? You look like you're experiencing extreme pain. Ah, is it because of your vines?" Theo grinned as he used his Telekinesis to carry the big vines with him.

The Dryad couldn't contain her anger and screamed. "You're going to experience a horrible death. Mark my words! I am going to have all these beasts rip your body apart and let them eat you."

"Oh, how about I feed them with yours first?" Theo chuckled and threw all four vines to them.

The veins were ten feet in diameter and their length was close to thirty feet. They were pretty big compared to the monsters, so when Theo threw them to the monsters, some of them ended up tripping, messing up with their lines.

"There, eat them." Theo laughed. "Those vines are bigger than my body, so it will surely make you guys full. Alas, no one wants to eat it… Not very delicious, it seems."

The Dryad released her killing intent as she stomped the beast she rode and leaped toward Theo.

"Since you want to die right now, I am going to kill you myself." The leaves that covered her body grew their vines and covered her entire body with them.

On top of her head grew a white flower like that of a helmet.

When Agata saw the vines that acted like armor, she remembered Ava's words as she thought, 'Is this the Dryad's battle form?'

While she was impressed by the battle form, Clone Theo didn't hesitate to face the Dryad.

The Dryad used the vines to create a drill on her hand while Theo summoned a spear with his Magic Power and struck the drill.

The Magic Spear exploded and knocked the drill away, allowing him to get past her defense.

He looped around her body and sent his fist to her waist, but several vines grew from her back and grabbed his body, stopping his movement.

"…" Theo fell silent when he got caught while the Dryad landed on top of another monster while showing the real Theo her catch. "To think you're this weak, this is what I will do when I capture you."

Her vines snapped Clone Theo's left arm and ripped it apart.

"One down." The Dryad smirked as she continued to the right arm. "Two down!"

Before she could do it for another time, Theo transformed into a monkey and kicked her in the face.

He even used his Telekinesis to blow her away.

Bam.

"Gah." The Dryad flew in the air for a few seconds before landing on another monster, but Clone Theo was nowhere to be seen.

"Right? So, you want to capture me to get yourself kicked in the face… And it's a kick from a monkey." Theo laughed. "Hahaha, that's hilarious. This is the first time I have faced a General Class Monster with a good sense of humor."

The Dryad was fuming with anger. She was never insulted like this before. "You bastard!"

"Oh, not going to call me a human anymore? Such a disappointment." Theo let out a long sigh.

Agata, who was watching their clash this whole time, looked at Theo and thought, 'This guy… He must be enjoying it… Now, I kinda feel bad for Dryad.'
