God of Tricksters

"I haven't fallen asleep yet and you dare to cause a mess here'¦"

All of them were stunned when they saw the Wind Emperor standing in the air. They never thought he had been waiting all this time.

The Wind Emperor simply waved his hand to the side as the violent wind started shaking the assassins' bodies before bursting them from the inside.

The assassins literally exploded, leaving only blood, some flesh that hadn't been torn apart, and their ripped clothes.

However, the Wind Emperor used his wind to create a small barrier in the air, preventing anything from smearing his mansion.

After that, he descended to the ground and floated several inches above the soil since he couldn't use his legs.

"Grandfather!" Levina and Lyovkin immediately greeted him.

Meanwhile, Theo playfully said, "You don't need to kill them all."

"What? You want to get their information? That's impossible. Those guys are not even hiding their faces, so it's obvious there are no records in their bodies. And there's no way your enemies are sending people who will talk. If the assassins are that foolish, the employers are not going to tell them anything too.

"In other words, it's useless to keep them alive." The Wind Emperor shook his head helplessly.

"That's true, but I thought about using them as a warning. But I guess that's not important. I will just adjust my plan a bit." Theo sighed.

"That's because you leave everything to me. Why don't you take care of them?"

"Well, they seem to be elite assassins and if I fight them, I won't escape unscathed, let alone when I can't even use all my power." Theo shook his head. "I still want to test my power against talented people, you see."

"That's your problem." The Wind Emperor shrugged. "Anyway, I will take care of this."

"Thank you." Theo nodded while smiling.

Before leaving with a ball of blood in the air, the Wind Emperor said, "You two. Don't bother the guest for today. He must be tired after coming all the way here."

Lyovkin and Levina rubbed their cheeks with their fingers. They turned to Theo and apologized for disturbing him before returning to the mansion.

Meanwhile, Theo stood still for a moment while closing his eyes. "Well, I guess there are a few things to do for the next two days."

Theo sighed and finally returned to the room. Surprisingly, he didn't bother to train again as he simply went to bed to rest.

The next day.

Theo and the others went to the garden as they were planning to have a spar.

"Liza is not feeling well. I hope you don't mind her staying in the room today." Theo smiled, explaining her condition. "To be honest, she has been asking me not to make a trip here, so yeah, she doesn't want to come out."

The Wind Emperor remained silent while Levina and Lyovkin had a thought on their own.

'Doesn't this mean I can do anything I want?' Levina thought as she smiled inwardly.

'Hmm, I don't know if this is good or not, but I can see how a man called Theodore Griffith acts without the help of his assistant. In other words, everything he does is purely coming from his own thoughts.' Lyovkin closed his eyes before nodding his head.

After a while, the Wind Emperor finally introduced them again. "Lyovkin has good control over the wind. So, you shouldn't underestimate him. Although he's not as good as Zhilov, he's not that far. Though, I believe you are stronger than him."

"Looking forward to fighting with you." Theo nodded to Lyovkin.

"Likewise."

"As for this girl'¦ How about you show him your weapon?"

She accepted the command and called her weapons. It turned out her weapon was the huge robotic hands that his past competitor used. However, Levina also had a pair of boots that matched the hands, allowing her to release an even more powerful attack.

"I see. So that's why you said her power comes from her weapon." Theo nodded in understanding.

"Yeah. She's going to participate in the Grand Gaia Competition next year as a second year. So, why don't you test whether she's good enough or not to compete in that tournament? After all, you were the previous MVP." The Wind Emperor smirked.

"I understand."

"Please take care of me." Levina smiled. "I don't know if I should request this, but I would like to fight you with your full power."

"For some circumstances, that's not possible." Theo shook his head helplessly. "But you don't need to hold back because you won't be able to touch me even with my current strength."

"'¦" Levina fell silent. She wanted to refute him, saying she might be stronger than she expected, but she thought Theo might have that kind of power.

Hence, she only fell silent and accepted his words. "I understand. I'm looking forward to our fight."

"Yeah."

"Anyway, you're free to use everything in your possession to defeat this guy." The Wind Emperor pointed at the garden. "This will be the area of battle. No need to think about me when you attack your opponent because I don't care much about the garden. It can be rebuilt again anyway.

"So, yeah, make sure you don't hold back and end up disappointing me. I will stop the fight when it gets dangerous." The Wind Emperor thought for a moment and stated, "Theodore Griffith is a monster. That's something I can confidently say.

"If you underestimate him, you're going to pay for it dearly. After the fight, I will try to explain everything you need to improve. That's all. Do you have anything you want to say?"

Lyovkin and Levina shook their heads at the same time while Theo took a step back, entering the arena.

"Alright. Who will fight him first?"

Lyovkin and Levina exchanged looks before the latter raised her hand. "I'm weaker than him, so his fight will probably last longer. Hence, I will fight him first. Besides, we need to assume that we know nothing about our opponents in the Grand Gaia Competition even though we have some data about them."

"Okay. Go!"

Levina nodded to the Wind Emperor before walking toward Theo.

"Please take care of me."

Theo nodded with a smile.

"Match Start!"
