God of Tricksters-Novel

The first thing that the King of Fighters showed was the video of Azka and the Vice President, talking about something. The video was recorded from the outside, but there was a sound of their conversation.

"What have you done? How dare you betray me at this moment?" The Vice President was seen slamming the table, glaring at Azka.

"I suspect you were the one who did it. You are the one who should give me the explanation."

Both the Vice President and Azka instantly opened their eyes in shock because they remembered this conversation. Theo just got ambushed, so they argued about the culprit.

The argument became pretty heated, but everything changed when the Vice President and Azka agreed to blame everything on the Salvatore Family.

"That Ary is in a bad relationship with the Salvatore Family. Whether they're the culprit or not, we'll make them the culprit."

"That's right. With this, everything can be solved as soon as possible since we only need to crush the Salvatore Family."

"What is that bullshit?" The Vice President, who watched the video, couldn't help but shout. "I never met that guy. If you were trying to create fake information, then you shouldn't only bring a guy whose face is similar to mine! There's no way I would do something like that, especially when you are the King of Fighters."

"Why am I being implicated by this fake video? Are you telling me that the ambush is not enough and you want to deal with me? What have I done to you for you to go this far to beat me?" Azka shouted.

"Why are you so worked up? Is it because you remember that conversation?" The King of Fighters smiled. Even though he was the one becoming the target, he didn't get angry at all. In fact, he looked even calmer than before. He said, "I'm simply showing you all the information I have gathered. And…"

Another video of another conversation took place after Ruby's death.

"I know you're trying to use us for yourselves. When you've got everything you want, you're planning to eliminate us. You want to weaken us by killing all of us one by one." ɴovel(F)ɪre

"I seriously don't understand what you're talking about. Do you think I would be in this state if I did something to your group? I would have a nightmare thinking about how to solve the problem with your group."

The two were showing a conversation that indicated cooperation between them.

"This is bullshit. How dare you accuse me with forged proof? Do you think you are above the law?" The Vice President gritted his teeth, glaring at the King of Fighters. "Do you think I don't know you're trying to save your own asses? You can do that, but why are you accusing me of doing something I haven't done!"

"Accuse you? I think the leaders around us are already quite experienced in politics. And seeing these two conversations, even I suspect you, Mr. Vice President.

"Of course, I can't do anything to you. If that's the case, let's change to another method to prove my innocence." The King of Fighters smirked and turned around, looking at an old man. "You are the CEO of the Hazekiel Company and you are the one who should be in charge of that monster bastard, right?

"So, how about it? How about I kill him right now? If I can prove to you that he's a monster, you're not going to hold me accountable. If I can't prove it… my life will be in your hands." The King of Fighters grinned as if he wasn't scared of death.

"!!!" The people widened their eyes in shock because it was surprising to hear the King of Fighters willing to have his life and death in someone's hands. This was a bet bigger than anyone could think.

Of course, because he couldn't really testify to the loss of a single human life, he had to consider it a bit more.

However, his hesitation cost him almost everything because another person raised his hand, asking, "Sir King of Fighters, I believe you're trying to show us the group that you believe is a group of monsters. May we see their faces?"

"Of course." The King of Fighters didn't hesitate to show them the group that consisted of Azka, Ruby, and the others.

"This is…"

Everyone widened their eyes in shock. Some of them were recognized immediately by their own leaders. Some of them were identified by the data of the people murdered in the previous incident.

"This is…"

"Some of them were the targets and had died…"

"Then, is it truly the case?"

"Now that I think about it, the bodies of the deceased haven't been returned to us because they're trying to hold a funeral and build a memorial here."

"Don't tell me…"

The people began to look at Azka and the Vice President with suspicious gazes. They were wondering if the proof was true or not.

If it was just a video about their conversation, it was easy to create due to the development of the technology.

But it would be different if they could prove it in front of everyone. And someone had to be sacrificed to do that.

This wasn't an easy decision because they were sending them to their death. But at the same time, if they didn't do it properly, there was a risk of these people becoming spies among the humans. When that happened, there would be a huge threat to their base.

The King of Fighters thought for a moment and released another video. This time, the video was about the facility to treat Ruby.

"This is…" Both Azka and the Vice President gasped. There was no way they could capture a video this close with Azka leading the group. Yet, there was someone skilled enough to do something like that.

"What is this…" The others were also shocked, but for another reason. They were staring at another woman's body and it seemed to be one of the teachers as well.

A middle-aged man suddenly stood up and said, "Isn't that Rebecca from my organization? What is she doing there? No, wait, I have lost contact with her…"
