God of Tricksters-Novel

"Death!"

"Then try it!" The shark shouted while moving forward. He was using his plastic to form a giant shield to push everything. The shield was so big that it even reached the ground, trying to crush anyone in its path.

However, Theo appeared before the shield and waved his blade. For the first time in this battle, the plastic was cut so cleanly.

"This is…" The shark panicked because he realized one thing. "Illusion!"

Clone Theo smiled as he appeared right before the body. He waved his sword and cut the body into two with his illusion.

"Finally, you're distracted enough to give this opening." Theo smirked, using his Telekinesis to slip past the gap.

Theo flew straight toward the shark's main body and slammed his fist.

The latter formed another plastic to block it, but the moment it touched his fist, the plastic shattered like glasses. But even more amazing was the fact that the shattered glasses turned into butterflies that flew around the shark.

"!!!" The shark's face became pale because all butterflies released a spike toward his body. "Aaaaahhh!"

Almost all the spikes were blocked by his tough skin, but there were four spikes that stabbed the wounds he suffered in this battle, causing the wound to pierce through its flesh.

Theo had been waiting for this moment. Since the start of their battle, Theo had been trying to put him under an illusion. He had multiple ways of using his illusion. One of them was like how he fought the Frost Saint by making the illusion fight a reality.

However, the shark had been vigilance of that power and left no gap to exploit. He wanted to use it, but the shark shattered that illusion every time.

Then, he could use it like the fight against the original Theo. But the plastic regenerated instantly. This showed how good the shark's mental fortitude was.

And finally, the shark had become weak and distracted enough from the wound and the sea creatures that Theo could exploit it.

Theo didn't hesitate to use his second method to remove everything in his way, allowing him to reach the shark once again.

"This is where you shall fall," Theo shouted while slashing his sword. He was planning to take down at least one of its fins.

The shark smiled and summoned two plastic balls. The first plastic ball was used to block Theo's attack while the other plastic went to Theo's stomach and expanded, pushing him back.

Before Theo was thrown away, his clone appeared and slashed the ball into two by using the illusion and turning it into reality.

After that, the two Theos marched together while waving their swords.

The shark gritted his teeth and summoned another plastic ball, but this time to isolate all three of them inside. After that, he made another one to surround himself before expanding it.

It turned out he was planning to crush them by using these two plastic balls.

This plan was useful and would work for normal people. However, Theo simply used his Alter Ego to get enough strength before shattering these balls.

"Cling!*

The breaking plastic felt like a breaking heart. The shark truly had no other way to stop Theo. His body was tattered, his mind was occupied, and his action was limited. No matter how hard he tried to stop him, Theo simply overwhelmed him with strength.

"Aaaahhhh!" The shark screamed in pain as Clone Theo cut his dorsal fin with all his strength.

After that, Theo looped around and surrounded the shark from two directions. He then waved his sword to stab the shark from behind, but the latter managed to form a last-second plastic to stop his sword.

But due to his injury, the shark failed to block the clone again. He tried to throw himself to the side, but Clone Theo cut down his left pectoral fin.

This place simply had become Theo's execution ground. It wasn't that the shark was weak. Theo had to join hands with Alexa, another Saint. He even had to use his trick to fool the enemies before using his clone to injure him as much as possible. N(o)vᴇl(F)ire.net

If one part was missing, the shark would still be alive. In fact, Theo might have lost by now.

That was why this victory wasn't his victory alone. It was a collective victory.

The shark realized his demise was approaching. Even his consciousness became a bit fuzzy due to the blood loss and injuries.

The shark still didn't want to go down just like this. He roared as loud as possible, sending all his remaining Magic Power in all directions to push Theo back even for a second.

After that, he summoned another plastic box to trap Theo inside.

"It's useless. You won't be able to—" When Theo was about to destroy the plastic box, he saw the shark expand and swallow Theo with the box.

"!!!" Theo was amazed because this showed the determination of the shark. The shark's body had been fused with plastic, so if he actually used his body to squeeze them to death, it would be more feasible than using only his power.

After all, this body was where the concentrated plastic was.

"You're going down with me." The shark smiled. "You won't be able to escape now. I'm sure you've realized it, but you can't get past my plastic by using that teleportation skill of yours. After all, this plastic is immune to everything."

As he said, the plastic was truly strong. It couldn't be frozen, scorched, or anything. If not for the fact he was distracted earlier, Theo wouldn't be able to leave a scorching mark with Rea's Dragon Crush.

And this plastic box kept shrinking, trying to squeeze him to death.

"You're truly strong, Plastic Saint. However, you have made one mistake…" Theo smirked. "You shouldn't allow me to be together with my clone."

"!!!" The shark suddenly felt chills all over his body as if knowing Theo was planning to do something.

"In this world, everything has to be balanced. Positive, negative; fire and ice; yin and yang… illusion and reality. I shall be the Reality." Theo smirked.

"I shall be the Illusion." Clone Theo released all his Spiritual Energy.

"Now, let's swap everything." Theo and Clone Theo clapped their hands. "Second Law, Reverse World."
