God of Tricksters-Novel

"Huh? We're stepping back?" The commander on the right army was confused by the order, but because it was an order, he had to execute it. "Jim, green!"

He was shouting at the person not far from him.

The other guy noticed it since the commander was sending the message with the help of Magic Power. So, he took out a flare gun and pointed it at the sky.

*Bang!*

A green flare flew to the sky. With such a high flare, the monsters were confused while the army understood their assignment.

On this battlefield that involved hundreds of thousands of people, it was hard for them to follow the order. After all, the army had been stretched widely due to the number. So, they only needed to follow a simple order like the flare. The green flare meant retreat.

Once the soldiers saw that, no matter how confused they were, they had to go back.

Some were reluctant, but most of them had moved backward. If they didn't move back, they would be left alone in the frontline after all.

So, they had no choice but to obey orders.

And with this, the right army gradually retreated, causing the monsters to advance forward.

There were a lot of enemies pushing forward, thinking they managed to overwhelm the humans.

But the more they pushed forward, the deeper they fell into Leonardo's trap.

It didn't take too long for the reserve army to finally reach their position and strike them from the side. Their momentum and their strength completely overwhelmed the monsters.

Even if it only lasted for a while, their strength completely crushed the enemies.

It stunned the soldiers because the pressure on their side was lessened greatly.

"This is…" The commander, who was enduring a hellish fight, finally had time to take a breath. He had been going full power this whole time, but that narrowed his field of vision.

Now that he had regained his composure, he finally realized the situation and gradually shifted the army again.

'The battlefield is changing in a different way from before…' The commander thought for a moment. 'I see. It seems we have a new commander. Not bad.'

This kind of support was happening on all battlefields. Even with their disadvantages, the army could at least stop the monsters in front of them.

But the most important thing for Leonardo's presence in the command center was none other than the situation inside the base.

"We have located the bomb and neutralized it." One of the Mafia Queen's subordinates reported while glancing at the bomb squad that handled the bomb.

"There is another one spotted here. The bomb squad is moving right now."

"There is another bomb here. But we are a bit far from the bomb squad… requesting to carry it and place it in an empty area."

While taking care of the battlefield, Leonardo was calculating the pattern of the bombing accidents. He realized that the spies only wanted to cause a ruckus among the citizens, not destroy any important assets of the base.

It seemed that the spies wanted the citizens to be in disarray, if possible, cause massive chaos.

But Leonardo had seen through this and started deploying the people under the Mafia Queen to take care of the bombs.

They never expected that the bombs would be snatched one by one. And with how they were set at different timing, it became easier to stop the bombs.

And the Mafia Queen who witnessed all this change couldn't help but smile with a dark expression. "Hahaha. As expected of the War Saint, he can even predict all this… This is why despite not having the strength to go toe-to-toe with us or even reach the top 20 people in the world, he is still feared like one of the Saints. Leonardo Guerrero… you're amazing."

The Mafia Queen became even more spirited since they could finally do their jobs properly. If they continued like this, it wouldn't be long before they could relax or even help the people from the frontline.

Last but not least, the change came from inside the base. But this time, it was a person who was going directly to the battlefield.

He was none other than the Time God.

While he was moving, Leonardo called the Time God. He knew that the Time God would be ignoring him if he called by using the official line of the headquarters, so he used the number Theo had given him previously.The source of this ᴄontent is novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ - ɴovᴇlbin

"Hmm?" The Time God narrowed his eyes and picked it up, considering he didn't give his number to normal people.

"Yo, Time God. I guess I don't have to introduce myself." Leonardo's tone was filled with confidence to the point it felt like Leonardo was looking down on him.

"…War Saint, I presume." The Time God narrowed his eyes.

"You're correct. I guess you have been taking your time in going to the battlefield. With your ability, you can reach the frontline within ten minutes, no?"

The Time God's eyebrows twitched. As the ruler of time, he obviously could accelerate himself and reach the battlefield that fast. But the Time God also had his own considerations. "I apologize if that offends you, but considering I have to take down the slime, who is the strongest among them, I have to preserve my energy.

"That's why I'm going to use the fastest route while conserving my energy. I don't think that's a problem, right? Everyone on the battlefield should be able to wait for that long."

"Of course. This is the reason for my call… I have calculated your time and speed. By this time, you should have reached the battlefield, right?"

"…" The Time God clicked his tongue. As Leonardo said, he had just landed on top of the building not far from the battlefield. He could already see the battlefield from this tower. "Yeah. I guess you want me to do something."

"Of course. I have one task for you before you join the battle. I'm sure this is an easy task for you." Leonardo smirked.

What kind of order would Leonardo give to the Time God?
