God of Tricksters

Chapter 423 - Reunion

After those four, Theo and Ava started killing the rest of the monsters one by one. He utilized his Magic Bullets mainly as a distraction while his normal swing, especially with the help of his Materialization, became the greatest weapon that suppressed them.

Although it was true that Theo wouldn't be able to do anything if he fought the level 400 Ground Dragon alone, it still didn't change the fact Theo's strike was powerful enough to kill it.

Not a single of the monsters could block the attack and die on the spot.

Of course, using Materialization, Telekinesis, External Flow, and Cannon Blast exhausted his Magic Power reserve at a rapid rate. Even if he could kill the monsters quickly, he still had his limit.

*Sigh!*

Theo wiped the sweats on his forehead and put the mask back on. He looked down and saw all the corpses lying around.

"I managed to level up a few times… And with my current reserve, it's better to rest for the rest of the day. I may reach my target sooner than I expected though." Theo couldn't help but smile.

When he was about to reach the monsters' corpses to turn them into cards, Ava suddenly looked to the side, leaped on top of his shoulder, and hid underneath his clothes.

"Ava?" Theo furrowed his eyebrows and raised his spear. Ava only showed this kind of reaction when a human was nearby while Theo faced a dilemma.

On the one hand, he wanted to grab all the dropped cards. On the other hand, he didn't want to meet other humans nearby because these monsters might incite their greed and kill him.

"Never mind. They won't be able to do anything to the corpses, so I will take care of it later." Theo ran away while staying within five hundred feet range to see what they planned to do.

To his surprise, the human that came into his vision was a pink-haired woman. His heart skipped a beat when he saw the woman, not because of her beauty but due to her identity.

"Ellen?" Theo widened his eyes and remembered that Ellen's level was perfect for hunting around this area. She should be approaching level 300, so it was no wonder that Ellen was hunting in this area.

But what shocked him was the fact she was alone in this place. A magician would face great trouble if they fought alone in close combat.

She looked left and right when she found the monsters' corpses.

Unfortunately, Theo couldn't see her expression from this distance. He soon decided to come closer, only to find another surprise.

Three Blue Carnal Wolves emerged from the bushes, leaping toward her.

Ellen waved her hand and summoned three pieces of ice cubes. The cubes were three times her size as she launched them forward, making the wolves crash to them.

She then started running again, making Theo doubt his judgment.

"There's no way Ellen is luring the wolves. The number is too low. In that case, she must be running away from them… Should I help her?" Since Ellen had been helping her before the Grand Gaia, Theo decided to help her.

Ellen, on the contrary, summoned a small snowflake in front of her palm as it exploded, sending freezing wind to the wolves.

The wolves were blown away and landed on the ground, glaring at her.

When they were about to chase her again, Magic Bullets flew between the trees and took a few turns to confuse the wolves before hitting the one on the right.

Boom.

Boom.

A series of explosions occurred as Ellen and the wolves glanced to the side where the Magic Bullets came from.

Alarmed, Ellen shouted, "Please help me defeat these wolves."

Without hesitation, two masked people appeared on top of the wolves while punching the wolves with their fists.

The energy around the fists dispersed and pierced through the wolves' bodies, creating a small hole in it.

Ellen was taken aback by this sight and looked at these masked men. Unlike Phyrill and Alea, Ellen never saw Joker, so he could help her without getting recognized… Or that was supposed to be the case.

Ellen surprised him by hugging one of Theos while shouting, "Theo. It's been a while!"

Theo's body shook as he couldn't comprehend what just happened.

Before he said anything, Ellen said, "Before the competition, Alea told me about a great first or second year wearing a mask called Joker. She wanted to recruit him, so when I saw Cannon Blast coming from your fists, ruthless Magic Bullets, and your Teleportation skill, I knew it's you."

"Blabbermouth." Theo shook his head helplessly. Although he wanted to stay anonymous, he didn't mind if Ellen knew about it. Unlike Alea, Ellen should be able to keep his identity a secret.

So, Theo put down all his act and said, "Yeah, it's been a while."

"Thank you for helping me." Ellen obviously didn't forget to thank him. "Are you here for the Coal Dome and Wolf City's dispute too?"

"Hmm?" Theo frowned and asked, "What's that?"

"You don't know? You should know there are some ancient structures in this world, right?"

"Yeah."

"Coal Dome is one of them and they are fighting a small city built by a General Class wolf," Ellen answered. "The news was released two days ago."

"Hmm? I was already out of the city at that time." Theo nodded before finding something weird in her statement. "Wait a minute. If you are leaving before me, why can you reach this place faster?"

"Ah, that?" Ellen chuckled and said, "I came here with Phyrill. However, our group was hit by 100 mummies and wolves and I got separated from them."

"Well…" Theo didn't know what to say as he thought 100 was a huge number. There was no way a group could withstand them.

Suddenly, a male's voice echoed in their ears.

"Ellen! Reply to me, Ellen!" That voice was so familiar to the point Ellen shouted without hesitation. "Phyrill, I'm here."

Recognizing her voice, Phyrill quickly emerged from the woods, finding Ellen and a masked man who was no stranger to him. "Theo!"

Theo's eyebrows twitched when he saw this petite guy wearing long black pants and a white t-shirt covered by a camo jacket.
