God of Tricksters

Chapter 277 – Scary Girl

Chapter 277 - Scary Girl

With the two incoming people behind him, Theo was finally in a dire situation. At the same time, he couldn't really throw the pole because Nella had positioned himself in between, planning to grab everything if Theo indeed dared to do it.

At the same time, ten skeletons emerged from the ground and ran toward Theo, making the situation even more complicated.

Both Theo and his clone summoned their Magic Bullets and used Tracking Ability to destroy all the ten skeletons.

Luka and Zara arrived at the same time, waving their swords at Theo's back.

Theo turned around and struck their swords with his spear, but as one would expect, the two had better swordsmanship than him, resulting in him getting pushed back while parrying their attacks as it was all he could do at the moment.

Nella took this chance to arrive behind Theo and punched him on the back. "Magic Saint Fist Style. Induction Fist."

"Elemental Shield!"

Two Elemental Shields appeared on her way, but Nella didn't care about it anymore as she used all her strength in this one fist. She struck the shields and shattered them in succession.

Even though she lost a considerable amount of power and momentum, her fist still connected to Theo.

"Gah!" Theo spurted transparent acid from his mouth as his consciousness went blank for a second.

At that time, Clone Theo disappeared and left behind the silver pole on the ground.

"Oh no!" Everyone panicked because this would be the end of the match as Nella only needed to pick that up.

Theo also got blown away by Zara and Luka to stop him from getting on their way again.

"I got it!" Nella raised the silver pole from her hand, albeit no announcement came, except Sheira.

She immediately understood the Magic Power covering the staff again and Diego had yet to declare the match's conclusion.

Nella couldn't help but look Theo in the eyes, "You…"

Theo only smiled as he stuck his tongue out.

Nella used her Magic Power to dispel the illusion placed on the pole, revealing the real appearance that turned out to be a white spear.

What Nella didn't know about Theo was the fact he had trained with Rai for a couple of days. During the training, Theo had gotten accustomed to having the Magic Power around his body, so when she tried to disrupt the flow of his Magic Power, he simply faked his reaction and used his Illusion Manipulation to change all three spears to another one.

And his strategy succeeded as Nella thought she had discovered Theo's trick. Little did he know, Theo just tricked her into thinking she managed to discover his trick.

The real pole should be in real Theo's hand, not his clone. It was either the spear he used or the one on his back. With the current illusion, no one could figure it out.

"You trick me into thinking I unravel your trick?" Nella drew a gasp as Theo corrected her words. "You want to outsmart me, so I should outsmart your outsmarting."

What Theo implied was that he thought his plan from his own head and tried to see what the enemy would do. In other words, he himself had been creating his enemy inside his mind, trying to figure out what would be the most extreme thing they would do.

After getting her answer, Nella raised her head and looked above her, finding a huge ice meteor coming at them.

"Bye." Theo stuck his tongue out and used his Blink to escape from this situation.

With their current position, Nella and her team would need to break this Ice Meteor in order to escape.

"What, what, what?!" Sheira was completely shocked by the fact Theo tricked Nella and her team again. "The pole is not the real one? He made us think that the first change was returning to its original form? What is this man? Is there a limit to his potential?"

Unfortunately, Nella couldn't care less about Sheira as she had something more important to do. Even more so with veins bulging on her forehead.

Yes, for the first time in this tournament, Nella was pissed off. She grabbed Theo's spear and coated it with her Magic Power.

"Don't stop me anymore!" Nella gritted her teeth and threw the spear right at the Ice Meteor. "Shooting Star."

The spear flew like that of a bullet and hit the Ice Meteor right in the middle, causing a huge shock wave to erupt.

But what made everyone shocked was when the Ice Meteor began to crack.

"!!!" Theo, Sihan, and Ellen widened their eyes as they all realized what just happened.

The Ice Meteor was shattered by Theo's spear. Only Alea's Inch Slash might be able to stop this Ice Meteor in Thersland Team, and Nella managed to replicate the same thing with a spear. Even Theo needed to recalculate Nella's worth.

After getting destroyed, the momentum still carried the rubbles as they fell down on top of Nella.

Zara and Luka planned to use their skill to blow this away, but Nella had already grabbed the spear that came down first.

"Move!" Nella's eyes turned bloodshot as they emitted killing intent. She then waved the spear from left to right before all the ice pieces on top of them got swept away as if there was a giant brush that smacked them away.

"Haha, as expected from our captain, her Control is too terrifying." Zara scratched the back of her head and looked at Theo. "I guess… You have woken up the sleeping tiger."

Nella joined her hand together before making a slight gap between the two palms. A translucent light ball appeared out of thin air, shining.

After that, Nella waved her hand, pulled it back, and threw the translucent ball as if throwing a baseball. "Magic Concentration Bomb."

"!!!" Both Theo and Sihan cooperated with each other and marched forward, stopping the light ball from hitting the ground as they both knew it was going to be catastrophic.

"Castle."

"Elemental Shields."

The two protected Ellen with their shields, but the moment the ball hit their shield, it created a powerful explosion that engulfed both of them. The sound of explosion covered the crashing sound for both Theo and Sihan, who were somehow already planted on the wall.

"Huh?" Ellen widened her eyes.

"She is terrifying indeed…" Luka let out a long sigh. "To utilize a high-ranking skill, you need enough Control. And the most important reason for her to be feared is that her control talent allows her to even wield a B Rank Skill. A skill that only Level 500 Monster would drop. She's scary…"
