God of Tricksters

"This is impossible." The reporters gasped in shock. They couldn't believe what they had seen.

The President had laid out everything in front of them. It was broadcast on almost all channels so that everyone knew what was happening behind the scenes.

The President ended his explanation by saying, "I know that everyone is angry at the Vice President's action. Even I can barely hold back my anger.

"The monsters that came to the battlefield before must be the ones in cahoot with him.

"The reason why we acted against Mr. Theodore Griffith last time was due to these pieces of evidence. We'd been sniffing around to check the Vice President.

"When the volcano erupted, it was a golden opportunity. The monsters would show up with the help of the monsters fleeing from the volcano. However, we weren't sure whether they would unleash all their strength against us.

"Hence, we attacked Mr. Theodore Griffith without notifying him. We'd like to apologize to Mr. Theodore Griffith for attacking him so suddenly. If we didn't do it, we were afraid the enemies wouldn't unleash all their strength.

"If you all took a look, you should know the situation. The King of Fighters suddenly appeared on the battlefield instead of helping us take down Mr. Theo's comrades.

"The Time God wasn't in the capital as well. We were ready for the worst outcome to deliver a killing blow to the enemies.

"Fortunately, everyone could play their parts and finally achieve this victory. As for the Vice President, we would definitely make him pay for everything he had done.

"That's why we'd like to ask for your support so that the base can remain strong. We won't go down as the defeated."

The President's words made sense. He made it look like the government didn't go all-out against Theodore Griffith. If they did, they would have released all their air support and missiles to take Maya down.

Even the Time God hadn't been unleashed. So, it seemed the President had been working in secret to achieve this victory.

The evidence and the President's speech spread like wildfire. Many of them believed it since they had no flaws.

There were many experts trying to analyze everything but found no major issue. It was a brilliant plan, considering Theo had to deal with three World Class Monsters and still won.

Normally, it would be impossible. Theo might be abnormal, but his strength had yet to reach the Time God's level, so they were a bit skeptical when Theo managed to stop all of them by himself.

However, some of them denied the President's words as well, considering they had rescheduled the Vice President's trial. They shouldn't have revealed this information after rescheduling as well, since it looked like they had just gotten the evidence.

At the same time, they didn't know how to rebuke the President, since he had done his best for the base.

He didn't put Theo down and all the bad rumors about Theo that he had released back then had disappeared. It showed how he didn't want to do it if not for the circumstances.

However, all of the people from Theo's group snorted, knowing the President was lying. They might not be attacking their group's reputation, but he sure knew how to twist the people's perception of his action.

"Tsk. This is annoying. What the hell is wrong with him?" Maya gritted her teeth. "He dared to wreak havoc in my company, but now they're going to wash their hands? I'm going to sue them for the damage."

"How are you planning to do that? They can simply refuse to acknowledge it." Ergene shook her head helplessly.

"What do you think?" Maya harrumphed, glancing at Rea.

"I'm not sure. I don't know what the teacher's plan is this time. Though, I know his goal." Rea looked down, contemplating. She hadn't finished her analysis of the evidence.

Theo was the only person who knew about the evidence and the facility, so she wanted to know the real evidence and everything he had taken from the facility.

Nella was good at espionage and had done an investigation like this many times. She frowned as if feeling something was missing.

"Is there something wrong, Nella?" Rea narrowed her eyes as if they thought the same thing.

"What is his goal?" Nella asked to confirm her guess.

"I'm not sure about this, but I believe he's planning to weaken the government as much as possible."

"!!!" Nella gasped and pointed at the screen. "Now that I think about it, all the evidence they have shown…"

"What's wrong?" Maya straightened her back, becoming serious.

"Aren't you familiar with them, Maya? After all, you have been quarantined together…"

"Huh?" Maya contemplated for a moment before gasping. "Now that I think about it, these experiments looked completely identical to what they had found when quarantining us. In other words, there is nothing new, except for the fact it looks like they're doing it in the lab."

"That's right." Nella nodded with a serious expression. "Do you think there would be multiple World Class Monsters coming just from this?"

"No. Something doesn't add up…" Maya gasped.

"Are you saying there is another facility somewhere? And that facility was the one bringing those monsters here? Now that I think about it, I am also one of the protectors of the world's condition.

"All this slimy stuff isn't enough to bring those monsters in. In other words, Teacher must be hiding another facility… And he's planning to strike the government with it." Rea gasped, realizing the real plan.

"I'm assuming he's planning to weaken the government for one reason." Nella raised her finger. "I've been working in espionage for a few years now and I've learned how to hide among the people so that we can stay hidden as long as possible…"

"Don't tell me." Rea gasped. "The Vice President isn't the only spy? Is there another spy inside the government? By lowering their credibility, the spy will lose their power to inform those monsters?"

"Yes. If this is truly the case, there will be something interesting happening soon."
