God of Tricksters

Chapter 108 - Rude Kid

Theo didn't answer him while Ellen only glared at him. When Phyrill was about to move, Theo already surrounded Laust from two sides.

His clone faced Laust with his spear from the front while Theo would find a way to kill him from behind.

"To the side." Ellen's voice resounded in his ears as a warning before something big happened.

And with Theo looking at Ellen, he already understood what magic she planned to use. He and his clone move around in unison, giving way to Ellen's magic.

"Ice Wave."

Ice Spikes emerged from the ground in a fan-shaped area, making their way to Laust. With Theo and his clone on his side, he had two choices, either jumped to the air or beat one of them.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he didn't have confidence in beating Theo in one move, even if it was only his clone.

Laust ultimately leaped to the air to avoid the Ice Wave, but Ellen's second magic already appeared to strike him.

"!!!" Laust widened his eyes and summoned his Elemental Shield.

The attack was a blue ice crystal with a shape similar to that of a snowflake. The crystal expanded to ten times his body and dropped on top of him.

"Gh." Feeling the weight of the ice crystal, Laust started falling down.

Theo and his clone finally made their move. They leaped to the air and struck him.

It might be his last struggle, but Laust managed to spin his body and made a 360 swing, hitting both Phyrill's sword or Theo's blue spear.

Sadly, Theo only smiled at him and said, "You're strong, but this is the end."

As soon as he finished those words, the Magic Bullets both he and his clone had left earlier pierced his body. It was like when he hit the Orc during the battle beside the cliff with Magic Bullet suspended for a few seconds in the air.

Laust looked unwilling, but the fight had already ended the moment Jay died.

His body began to disappear and eventually crashed to the ground with a giant ice crystal on top of him.

He then turned around and found Kong standing still with Phyrill behind him.

Kong looked at his chest and clenched his teeth as Phyrill's sword already pierced through his heart. "Gh. This is impossible."

"Nothing is impossible. You're the one underestimating me, so keep doing so from now on." Phyrill shrugged and pulled out his sword. "I can kill someone easier when they underestimate me."

Kong's body also disappeared, leaving only Iv in the enemy group. The latter could only say, "Seriously? Do you want me to fight against all of them?"

Without being able to return a single blow, Iv finally died in Phyrill's hand and the match was concluded.

Their consciousness returned to their body and Theo was the first to come out since he needed to pick their next member.

Although he hated Laust Lange, he knew the best pick would be him. He could endure Sihan in this team anyway, so adding another person wouldn't be a problem.

The others had left their training capsules and Theo could see the worry in their eyes, especially Ellen, who wanted to see whether Theo could overcome his hatred and see the big picture or just let the hatred take over his rationality.

Sihan believed Theo could do it since he had seen his character for the past three weeks while Phyrill's expression brightened. He couldn't care less about the fifth member since he had found the wielder of the Magic Bullet he gave to Joker.

Before Phyrill made a fuss with his Magic Bullet, Theo picked Laust Lange as the fifth member.

"Oi, Theo!" Seeing Theo had made his choice, Phyrill quickly made his way toward Theo and grabbed his shoulders. "You… You must be the one I met back then!"

Theo already knew this was supposed to happen, but Theo didn't want him to know either. Instead of admitting or playing dumb, he decided to redirect it to another person to make it more believable, saying, "I don't know what you mean… I received this skill from someone else. He is my mentor. Do you happen to know him?"

"Your mentor?" Phyrill was taken aback and frowned, wondering if what Theo said was true. Obviously, after getting used to Alea's reading eyes, Theo's poker face had improved.

Although Alea could still see through him, it was enough for Phyrill.

"Yes. Now that I think about it, my mentor said he received the skill from someone else. That person was a petite guy that acted annoyingly cheerful. Wait a minute… That person sounds like you…" Theo narrowed his eyes and drew a gasp. "You were the one who gave this skill to my mentor?"

"You are not the person I'm looking for?" Phyrill started to doubt himself. Even though there was a fifty percent chance that Theo was Joker, he couldn't find anything to prove it too. Hence, Phyrill didn't know what to say to him.

"You seem to know each other?" Ellen smiled and tried to find out what was going on, but Phyrill knew it would become more complicated if Ellen were involved.

He sighed and clicked his tongue. "I have found the wrong person, but you're the clue to that person. So, how about it? Do you want to join my Hilbert Family?"

"I am honored to receive the invitation, but I would like to remain neutral for the time being." Theo smiled and shook his head.

"Tch." Phyrill didn't show anything else to Ellen or Sihan and returned to the couch, waiting for Laust to come over.

Ellen was confused, but she soon heard the knocking door.

Knock.

Knock.

"Come in," said Ellen while opening the door, offering her best smile.

Surprisingly, Laust didn't enter and looked at them with a serious expression. He refused to see Theo, so he said, "I have no plan in cooperating with Theodore Griffith. You can count me out of your plan. I will only do one thing for you in the match, but that's all."

He rudely threw that remark and turned around, leaving the building.

Sihan and Phyrill frowned and wondered if they just took in a time bomb. However, Ellen seemed to have a more extreme view of Laust.

An evil smile appeared on her face as she said with squinted eyes, scaring Phyrill as he instinctively hid behind Sihan. "I see… A rude kid needs to be punished."
