God of Tricksters

"How is the situation?" asked Theo while staring at the battlefield.

"The monsters seem to have unlimited stamina since they have been trying to overwhelm us this whole time," Spencer replied while pointing at the west. "We're trying to shift the defense to that area so that the monsters gradually come to the east where Kayla is waiting."

Yesenia added, "According to the number, we have successfully killed a total of ten thousand monsters in the span of seven hours thanks to you killing six thousand of them."

Theo nodded with a serious expression. Theo had been killing the monsters from time to time to relieve some pressure on the soldiers.

They were going to experience a more gruesome battle soon after all.

After hearing the report from these two, Theo said, "Maintain your position right now. They're coming."

"They?" Yesenia and Spencer frowned, wondering what was coming.

"You'll know about it soon. For now, maintain a close look at the sky."

"Understood." The two nodded and immediately went back to their position. They thought the incoming enemies would come from the sky, but Theo only wanted them to see the smoke signal.

After they left, Theo looked at the sky while sighing. "This doesn't look good. Are they going to come during the night? If we're fighting those plans in the darkness, it's going to be a bit troublesome due to their nature…"

Theo fell silent for a moment before informing the command center. "Tell Haivan and Nicholas to get ready."

After giving that command, he immediately began killing the enemies again.

While waiting for the trees to come, Theo checked his status.

He was currently at level 925 with only three A Rank Skills left since he had leveled up the Blink Skill from the Skill Cards he got from the upgrading session.

He thought this would be enough to stop the World Class Tree Monster, but he never expected there would be another World Class Monster that would come into the battlefield.

Since Theo didn't know anything, he simply focused on annihilating as many monsters as possible while maintaining his energy.

The dusk soon came, but there wasn't any sign of the plants' movement.

Theo retired to the command center for the time being, gathering his commanders.

Surprisingly, there were four people with Theo right now, which were none other than the people Theo brought from his group.

"What is this?" Kayla frowned, glaring at those four.

"These are the people from my group. I need them for something. So, how is it going?"

Jeff was the first to explain. "The path is cleared. I can see that there won't be any problems going in our direction."

Eleanor said, "I'm not sure at the moment. I don't think they have arrived, but I'm still watching the movement three miles away from here."

Isaac explained, "I haven't seen a surge in Magic Power. So, we're safe for the time being."

Theo nodded. "Thank you. Maintain vigilance right now."

Kayla became even more confused and asked, "What are they saying, Commander? Are we fighting something different?"

"It's just a speculation for now, but I believe there will be plant monsters coming our way," Theo explained to the rest.

"Huh? Plant monsters?!" Kayla was surprised that there would be another type of monster coming. But she also noticed one of his words. "Speculation?"

"That's right. It's only a speculation for now since I have no way of confirming it without putting my people at risk. I prefer if they're not coming, but I think they'll come."

"So, you're basing all this plan for the sake of these plant monsters that you aren't even sure will be coming? This is ridiculous." Kayla gritted her teeth, never expecting Theo to be fighting against a non-existent enemy.

"Kayla. Watch your mouth. He is our commander!" Nicholas tried to reprimand her while the latter rebuked him in an instant. "But do you think it makes sense to fight against an enemy that might never come?"

"Those monsters will most likely come sooner or later. I have been wondering why he's trying to lead this battle personally… It turns out to be related to this unknown type of monster." Haivan sighed.

Yesenia thought for a moment and said, "Now that I think about it, he has predicted the incoming mutated monsters and prepared for the sea race…Just looking at those two facts alone, it's clear that the commander knows something that we don't… No, instead of knowing, it's more like seeing something we can't."

"So, the possibility of them coming is pretty high." Spencer narrowed his eyes.

Unlike Kayla, the others were looking at Theo's track record. He had foreseen the incoming attack from the sea race and the mutated monsters, so it wouldn't be so strange if he predicted the plant monsters' movements as well.

"I'm afraid they're going to attack us during the night." Theo nodded, sharing his concern.

"Huh? During the night? Not during the day? Can't they do photosynthesis during the day?"

"They might do it to increase their energy or something during the day and release it during the night?"

"That's also a possibility. We have been too focused on those beasts that we forget that the trees are also a threat."

"If that's the case, shouldn't we begin preparing for their invasion?"

"I'll immediately put my men on standby after this."

The five commanders were discussing among themselves while Theo observed the conversation.

Suddenly, Eleanor dropped her jaw as she shouted, "Sorry if I interrupted you, but… one of my mice has just died…"

"!!!" Theo and the other commanders looked at Eleanor. Theo gasped, "Do you mean…"

"Yes. They're coming!" Eleanor nodded with a serious expression.
