God of Tricksters

Chapter 574 - End

Lorenzo instantly understood his plan. He thought, 'It turns out he wants to lower all our performance by injuring us. Although he is also injured, his tricks can maintain the gap between us, so in the end, it's the most beneficial plan for him.

'After all, defeating us one by one is impossible for him. In that case…' After noticing Theo's real plan, Lorenzo used his Teleportation Ability to send him to Mara, who was engaging Luka in close combat.

Since Luka had more strength than her, he kept pushing her back while saying, "You won't be able to win against me. As long as I keep our distance this close, you can't establish your attacks."

Mara sighed and waved her sword to the left, striking Luka's axe. When she was about to parry his axe again, she felt Lorenzo's presence behind her.

This would be a perfect opportunity since Luka and Lorenzo attacked her at the same time, but Mara still had her pride as the number one swordsman in their generation.

She blocked Luka's axe, but a golden light flew out of her sword and curved to her back, hitting Lorenzo.

As if not caring about his situation, Lorenzo received that attack with his other hand and ended up getting pierced by that attack.

He had prepared to get this type of injury to break Theo's plan.

"Seriously?" Mara clicked her tongue and felt a powerful Magic Power fluctuation that formed a shield on her back, stopping Lorenzo's sword.

She was eliminated by Lorenzo's sacrifice.

Without hesitation, her shadow rose from the ground and formed a humanoid figure. Before anyone could see his appearance, he had grabbed Mara and brought her away from the battlefield.

On the other hand, Luka was shocked to see Lorenzo's injury. "Oi, oi… Those injuries… I don't think you can use your hand anymore in this battle."

Lorenzo didn't say anything as he planned to defeat all of them.

However, Theo already surrounded Luka from two sides, thrusting his spear.

"Cannon Blast."

Luka gritted his teeth and leaned back to avoid the two spears, but Theo did the unthinkable. Just like Lorenzo sacrificing his left hand, the two spears collided, resulting in a powerful shock wave that would heavily injure Luka.

The shadow had no choice other than to step in and eliminate Luka from the competition.

"Kh…" Theo's right hand felt numb as he used that shock wave to regain his distance from Lorenzo.

This way, there were only Theo and Lorenzo in the competition.

"Huft." Theo started panting as his face became pale. He had exhausted most of his Magic Power, and his injuries made his condition worse.

Lorenzo was stunned by Theo's impressive performance and couldn't help but praise him, "You're strong. From your strength alone, I believe your level is above 300, if not 350. And to achieve it in six months, I have nothing but praise.

"At the same time, your Control and Tricks are too much even for me. I have no confidence in defeating you one on one if we are in this type of terrain with so many places to hide your traps. A plain field is nice to fight you since I have confidence in defeating you there.

"Still, you're only 18 years old while I'm 24 years old. I should be ashamed to lose against you and I don't mind declaring this to the whole world.

"I feel like I can achieve more than this by using my time more effectively after seeing your performance." Lorenzo sighed. "Well, enough about my rambling. All I want to say is one thing… Thank you for being here. I will use this experience to advance my skills even further."

An excited smirk appeared on Lorenzo's face as he began to get fired up. Even if Theo didn't acknowledge it, he considered Theo his arch-enemy to push himself like crazy now and in the future.

Theo felt his fighting intent and thought, 'I don't think I can last any longer. A few more skills are the best I can do. What should I do?'

The answer came to his mind in an instant as Clone Theo disappeared.

Theo dropped his spear to the ground while taking a deep breath.

"!!!" Lorenzo widened his eyes and said with a doubtful face. "You surrender?"

"No…" Theo shook his head before his bracelet turned into a spear.

Lorenzo couldn't help but feel the extraordinary fluctuation coming from the spear, realizing it wasn't a normal spear. "This spear… It's far stronger than both your spears. You have been hiding this trump card this whole time?"

Theo raised his spear and pointed it at Lorenzo's neck, saying with a smile. "I have promised someone that I won't lose anymore."

Lorenzo felt goosebumps as he laughed. "Haha. That's it! Fine by me, I will end this in one strike."

Theo used his Magic Augmentation to increase his power and covered his spear with Cannon Blast. Due to the jewel on his spear, the Cannon Blast became even more powerful.

Even Lorenzo felt that this attack was Theo's strongest skill.

"Since I have a higher level than you, I will tell you this… my sword can bend everything!" Lorenzo raised his sword on top of his head and jumped forward. A pink fog began to surround his sword.

Theo also ran forward and thrust his spear.

"Ha!" Both of them shouted to raise their morale as their weapons collided.

A tremendous shock wave shook the area and blew everything away.

The pink fog dispersed Theo's Cannon Blast to the side, but Theo used his Telekinesis to keep them together, ultimately grazing Lorenzo's body.

But Lorenzo took his power to another level as his blade suddenly bounced, allowing the spear to slip.

Theo took a step forward because his spear continued its way to Leonardo's injured arm.

"He prepared for it?" Theo widened his eyes as the blade made its way to his neck. "His sword bends the space around it to launch his sword upward while sending my spear to the already injured arm?"

Two shields appeared to protect both of them from injuring themselves. However, the battle had yet to be over.

I wenty Magic Bullets emerged from the ground.

"What?" Lorenzo hurriedly opened a portal to absorb all of them, but a bigger Magic Bullet came out and hit the portal without hesitation.

Lorenzo recognized this pattern and soon realized the one in front of him was a clone and the real Theo used his Blink to disappear earlier instead of retracting his clone.

The big Magic Bullet destroyed his portal and the rest moved toward him.

"There you are!" Lorenzo turned to the left and swung his sword before the Magic Bullets hit him, extending his sword with pink light to reach the exhausted Theo, who couldn't even move his finger.

In the end, several shields appeared to block the Magic Bullets and the pink light.

"That's it." A shadow appeared and declared… "A draw."
