Chapter 169 New Skill.
"So if I understood correctly, the other person who is with him is not his double, but a mysterious entity that is at least as strong as you? If so, isn't it in danger?" Liliana, who had just summarized Sylvia's explanations, came to this conclusion.
"Sigh, it is not he who is in danger, even if I refuse to admit it, this entity is may be sneaky but, he has never tried to hurt him before. I don't know what he's looking for, but it's not necessarily a good thing." She announced to Liliana while all her thoughts were only focused on her master.
This guy even succeeded erected a barrier that blocks my perception. What does he negotiate with the master?' She wondered with concern.
"Hm? In this case, if he is not his enemy, then what is he for him?" Liliana could guess that Sylvia was hiding things from her but she insisted anyway, even though she knew Sylvia didn't want to talk about it.
"At the moment, we can't confirm anything. That's why I can't tell you more; even if it's about you." She ends up losing patience seeing that Liliana did not intend to let this detail flow.
But at the same time, her attention was focused on Alvine's room when she realized that she could see the interior with her perception as if the invisible wall that hindered her perception had simply disappeared.
'Hm? The barrier...?!'
She did not continue to think about it very long before she became like a white light and ran straight to the room that was just ten meters from her position.
Alvine who was in the room did not pay attention to Sylvia who entered without knocking at the door. Instead, all his attention was focused on his clone while the golden parchment strangely immaculate lay on the ground.
"Master, are you okay?" Sylvia asked while her pupils became electric white while s
he analyzed Alvine's body.
But her surprise became all the more dazed when she chanted Alvine's clone.
"So, what do you think?" Instead of Alvine, it was her clone who asked her this question.
"How did you do that?" Sylvia asked with an incredulous air. When she arrived in the room, she thought that Alvine was still talking with Dalvine. But when she looked more closely at Alvine's clone, he seemed different from Dalvine. She could feel his mana, his affinities and above all, a soul that was not weak than that of Alvine emanated from his clone!
When she glanced at the clone, she could say that Alvine's clone had omitted most of the weaknesses that the other clones face. Namely, consciousness and soul!
Alvine had a satisfying smile when he saw Sylvia's expression. It was on these rare occasions that he could contemplate such expressions on her face; despite her being a primordial being.
"Why are you asking me for that? This is the technique of division that I had just learned in this parchment. At first, I thought I had to divide my soul in two to leave one under the influence of the system and the other independent. But the results turned out to be more than interesting, I not only managed to make a copy of my soul and all my memories, but I managed too to send it back to this body while being permanently connected to it." Alvine explained briefly.
"My original can share all my five senses if he wishes, but the damage that will be inflicted on me will not cause him the slightest problem. Apart from the affinity of the shadow of my original, I can use all his other affinities if he wishes." The clone continued Alvine's explanation.
Throughout the process of their explanations, Sylvia's gaze constantly traveled between the two while she tried to understand the situation.
"Master, if I summarize your current situation, just as you managed to create your clone with the affinity of darkness, your clone is also the replica of your soul and not part of your soul?" She asked for confirmation after organizing her thoughts.
Alvine nodded his head nonchalantly. "That's about it, but in reality, the soul of this clown is entirely made with my shadow affinity. I'm even beginning to wonder if the vampire who owns this parchment is not also a user of the affinity of the shadow. Otherwise, I don't see how he could use a technique entirely based on the affinity of shadow." He explained to her without even suspecting Dalvine who had modified the contents of the parchment when he had touched it. It was also the famous gift he was talking about.
"Sigh, congratulations, I suppose?" She congratulated Alvine with an artificially plated smile on her lips.
'Since when has the division of the soul had anything to do with replication? I'm one hundred percent sure that this guy had something to do with that. But more importantly, if he leaves this body with him, isn't it as if he was asking the other bastard to go out at any time?' She thought of this frightening hypothesis.
'I don't know by what miracle he managed to create a technique that exceeds my understanding of the soul, but one thing is certain, this technique has nothing to do with what he was studying on the parchment. Sigh, now I understand why it took weeks to learn something so simple. It was simply because he was completely wrong from the beginning! How can you even dare to call that a technique of soul division while also that allows you to create a replica of your soul?! Even I who do not know the name of this technique, know that it would be fairer to call it a replication of the soul rather than the division of the soul; since it does not allow you to divide your soul in two but to replicate it!' She constantly shouted these words in her brain. But she could not decide herself whether or not it was a good thing to reveal this fact to her master.
Sometimes, self-learning is a hundred times better than having an instructor who limits your design.
Seeing her doubtful eyes, Alvine's clone tapped her head with a natural smile. 'Don't worry, if the other tries to take control of my body, the original will know directly what to do by making me disappear forever." He reassured Sylvia with these words.
"Sigh, I see that you have already planned everything. All right, now that you have managed to master this capacity, what do you intend to do next?" She asked Alvine while feeling odder to see two pairs of eyes belonging to the same person pointed at her from a different angle.
Alvine had a mocking smile when she heard Sylvia's question. "I have not forgotten my initial goal. The reason I spent more than three weeks wanting to learn this skill at all costs is only because of the system! This bastard had blocked my affinities for a week in a row for banal reasons. If Helene's soul were not a prisoner, I swear I would have already gotten rid of this thing since the day I discovered its true face! In short, as I don't want such a thing to happen once again, this guy will be my guinea pig. I will try to move the system in his small skull and send him back to the dimension until I find a way to free Hélène under the system's grip! That's what I intend to do." He explained his plan, which he himself was not sure of his success.
"Master, I understand that you are frustrated by this bug, but you must never play with your soul. Only one mistake and you will no longer be yourself. I, therefore, advise you to be careful and learn more about this new skill." She offered him a forced smile while giving him this advice.
'Why does he talk about this as if it were as easy as drinking water? Sigh, every time, it's the same with him when this boring guy resurfaces. He is definitely not a good person. His influence is not a good thing for him.' She wondered while looking at her master's strange actions since she had crossed the thresholds of the door.
"Sylvia, don't you think I'm going to try to take such a risk just because I managed to learn a single soul-related technique, do you? Sigh, there are several paths to go, before trying to do anything stupid; I'm not in such a hurry to die. For now, as the system is in standby mode I have to wait for it to reactivate and make sure that it blocks my affinities. Then I would check if my clone can use the affinities blocked by the system." He reasoned with Sylvia with this explanation.
"But if my assumptions are true, then I will have to leave you with him while I solve some personal problems in the dimension." He continued his sentence nonchalantly. 'The best thing would be to join him in the dimension rather than get him out. Otherwise, I can't even guess what will happen with him!' He says to Himself with a frown.
But he had forgotten a small detail, and this detail was none other than Sylvia who frowned when she heard her plan. "What do you plan to do there? I can guess the number of problems you will cause us if you go there alone."

"King of beasts, the Tenth General been missing since the mysterious calamity that fell on the forest. All the spies we had sent to know the situation on the border were decimated by mysterious forces. What do you suggest, my lord? To exterminate these weak creatures once and for all?" It was the thunderous voice of a black tiger with hypnotizing yellow eyes who was the fifth general of the army of the King of Beasts.
The danger lurks all over the forest when it was dark, and this is all the more true when it comes to the forest where Garyth's Apostle and his nine generals reside there.
Narak, Garyth's apostle who always had his eyes closed, as usual, exhaled a big breath of hot air before making his heavy voice heard in the two kilometers around. "The opponent does not seem as weak as we expected. I had a divine revelation that ordered me to end this war as soon as possible. So I will now take things into my own hands." He said, standing majestically on his two front legs while his bloody red eyes looked at the world in red.
The other generals wanted to convince him to standby while they took care of it but, when they heard the divine revelation, they low their heads while their gigantic bodies shivered with fear. They all knew that their king obeyed only one being, and this unhappy being is more powerful than their king and they never met him.
"Your wishes are orders for us, ultimate king!" They screamed together.
The black dragon slightly nodded before letting out a little thunderous laugh. "Kuku, Listen to my orders, my adorable most faithful subordinates. In three days, I want these weak and insignificant beings to be reduced to nothingness on the planet. I entrust this task to the fifth general. Take under your wing the last four generals and bring me good news from the battlefield. No prisoners, no slaves, and no survivors! Kill as much as you want, with as much cruelty as you wish but win the war as soon as possible."
