God of Tricksters

"Begone. Inverted World," said Clone Theo while activating the ability.

A huge vortex suddenly appeared on the surface of the slime. It began to suck the slime inside.

The slime was completely stunned. He never thought a single attack from him would deal this much damage. He tried to use his power to stop it, but because of Theo's new power, the effect was far less than he expected.

If this continued, a large portion of his body would be destroyed.

'No way, Theo's new power is far too powerful. It seems that I have underestimated the power of the rank beyond the Mythical Rank. But what should I do? I can't do anything since my power is sealed. Normal tentacles won't be enough to stop them.

'There is also no more World Class Monster that I can use since Theo has killed the last one. Maybe I should have focused on retrieving their power… Letting Theo remove them from the battlefield is a huge mistake.'

The slime realized that if he had regained two more Authorities, especially the Water Authority, he could have turned the situation around.

However, there was one more possible move he could use to prevent all this damage. Since his senses are shared with the other slime monsters, he could see the situation from the outside.

Theo might have created this dark world, but they were by no means teleported to another world. They had vanished from this world, but this space was a kind of subplane, a reality that existed inside another reality.

He might have lost connection to the outside world, but he could still order the people outside to come to this place and reconnect this world to the real one.

However, the Dark Saint had helped the people in the yellow line and the green line. He had obliterated a few King Class Monsters and at least five hundred normal monsters. As long as the Dark Saint remained there, there would be no monster from the yellow and green lines that could come to this place.

There was only one more existence that could break this power apart. And the slime had no choice but to use that existence, even if it meant breaking the promise.

Theo and the others had destroyed all the recovery he had made so far. In other words, he returned to being half of his original size. And all of them were still using their power to destroy his body.

If this continued, the slime would at least be reduced by another thirty percent of its original size. In other words, from a size that could match a small mountain, the slime would be reduced to the point where it could barely be considered a hill.

And Theo's vortex on his body would have the most impact on his body. That was why, if he wanted to target something, he should stop this vortex first.

All of a sudden, the vortex stopped, as though it had been frozen.

"Hmm?" Theo widened his eyes, feeling something weird. After all, he could see the ability that stopped his vortex. And there was one keyword that gave away the opponent's ability. It was 'Time.'

"!!!" The Time God suddenly appeared in front of him, ready to crush his head. However, it seemed that Loki had done his best as he took one of the Time God's arms. No, it was more like the Time God sacrificed his arm so that he could help the slime.

Luckily, the God of Mischief caught up to him, turning the frozen time into an illusion. And this illusion was Theo's forte. He could move and grab the Time God's hand, trying to destroy it.

However, the Time God didn't really care about all that. He allowed Theo to take his hand, but in exchange, he pushed his hand forward and scratched Theo's neck.

"Kh." Theo gritted his teeth, barely avoiding it. If he had been late, even for a split second, a huge portion of his neck would have been destroyed.

Now that two of his arms had been removed from his body, the Time God retreated to the slime.

"I have stopped your doom and even injured Theo quite heavily. Restore my arms." The Time God stated. He was disappointed that the slime couldn't hold a candle against Theo and the others, but he could somehow understand since Theo had become a Singularity.

The slime formed a tentacle and said, "Here."

The God of Mischief regrouped with the rest of the people while saying, "We have to stop them. Theo, you—"

He wanted Theo to cover his injury for a bit, considering the one that got injured was his real body instead of his clone. But before he could finish his words, there was a sudden scream coming from the Time God.

"Aaaaahhhh, you slime bastard!" The Time God was screaming. His shoulders were touching the slime since the latter could rebuild his arms inside of him.

The Time God knew that there was no other option except to work together. He had been branded as a traitor to humanity, so there was no turning back. He had to cooperate with the slime to defeat all of them.

Yet the slime betrayed his promise. Instead of letting him live, the slime began to dissolve his entire existence the moment his body touched the slime.

He tried to use his Time Power, but because his body was made of slime, the slime's order was absolute. He had to be reabsorbed into the slime.

It was an irony. The traitor to humanity was being betrayed by the same person who caused him to betray humanity.

However, for Theo, this was a different matter. He didn't care if the slime betrayed the Time God. But there was one thing that he never thought was possible.

Before coming here, the slime could dissolve everything from one's body except for their power, allowing him to use their power or even grant it to someone else. But in this battle, the slime managed to grasp the original Theo's devouring power.

In other words, the slime could finally grasp and turn the ability into his. And with the Devour Authority perfecting his ability, that power was not limited to absorbing someone's ability. It could absorb almost everything, including his rank.
