Will was frightened by the sharp irritating laughs
"The Vanisher?" He cried out in shock
Forest Man was The Vanisher? Impossible.
Will tried his best to convince himself that what he was seeing is just an illusion but his sight wouldn't deceive him, even Wolf Guy who was focusing on dodging tree branches halted his steps for a while
As the situation unfolded, Forest Man, no, no, The Vanisher's laughs sounded more delightful
"Suprise?"
Both of their surprised and dull expression were an extreme pleasure to The Vanisher
The Vanisher was filled with self satisfaction as he he just returned to the peak of his stage that he once lost
He raised his arms, imagining himself under the shining spotlights, bathing in the flashes of cameras
He lifted his head, listening to the praise that didn't exist
No, the praising did exist, tte spotlight and the flashes too!
The Vanisher was intoxicated with his own plesure, he was so carried away that only the pain that struck his own core could wake him up
Puk!
The Vanisher looked down following the pain, he saw a purple light in shape of a sword go through his chest, he felt his heart being slices and saw that sneer, a face filled with ridicule
"Suprised?" I signaled with my lips
"YOU THINK YOU'VE WON" The Vanisher then roared like thunder
….
At the same time, on top of the roof of a sky scraper on Brigade street block, another The Vanisher was roaring at another me
"You think you've won?"
"Didn't I"
I, who was also on the roof top slashed The Vanisher's head with the spirit sword again before he could even move, bloods and brains splattered everywhere
On top of the roof, the spirit bird which I had let out long time ago landed on my shoulder, it was the first time we met since I had let it out
It's keen head were sizing up it's surrounding as it caressed my face with it's head.
I also caressed it's head with my finger, I didn't even take a look at The Vanisher's body which was turning to asn with great speed
I got the information about The Vanisher from Carter, they most common ability of The Vanisher was his ability to appear anywhere and disappear and his attainment to create illusions, it was also said that The Vanisher had clone abilities so he can appeared in two places at once. Well, I'm also prepared for this
Therefore, after I heard all this from Carter, I used kne of the transportation scrolls that I bought in the dungeon to transport myself back to the dungeon, I bought eight doppelgangers because the maximum number of living beings the transportation scroll can take is nine. I transported back to Carter's hideout with the doppelgangers. I sent one of them to represent me in the meeting Will called. Although Forest Man killed the doppelganger, it didn't die because my dungeon monsters have a unique skill called [Great Mountain]. With this skill, none of my monsters will die until their health point is expended, this means they will all die at the same time. So if any monster died before the health point is expended, the monster will wake up after few minutes, that explains how the doppelganger woke up back. Because it is a doppelganger and not a shape shifter, doppelgangers have a skill called [Copycat] this skill enables then to copy everything about the person they copied including the person's outfit, equipments and even skills. That explains how the doppelganger was able to use my spirit energy to form a sword. The difference between the copied and the doppelganger is that the level of the skill or equipment used is lower that it really is.
It was a meticulous plan trap
Based on my understanding of The Vanisher's character, The Vanisher might have prepared for something like, thus us why I ordered the spirit bird to soar high enough for it to see everything in Brigade street block. Through the sight if the Spirit bird, The Vanisher's figure was exposed in a single glance.
I hid my presence and after a simple ambush, The Vanisher was killed easily.
Of course, I wouldn't think the battle was over,
I have heard of The Vanisher's ability to appear in two places at one with the same face but that didn't mean The Vanisher can only create a single clone
Judging from the body that just turn to ash, it was easy to say The Vanisher could create two or more clones at once
Out of natural habit, every successful strong being won't let out all his skills, there will be some aces left under their sleeves for raining days
"Competing with number of clones is what we're doing now?"
I muttered to myself as I walked to the edge of the skyscraper roof, my eyes were gazing over the entire Brigade street block
Hawk
I raised my arm and the spirit bird soared up again.
The ominous voice caved golds and pierced rocks; the ominous name flew and xircked the skyline.
"Aaaaaaaargh"
"Arrogant fool, how dare he ruin my play"
Admidst the loud and sharp yelling, The Vanisher's figure laid over a body and woke up, he started to recall the last scene.
Right away, endless insukt and Shane plagued The Vanisher, one of the Top suoet villian in the city
"You think you've won? Don't you know I'm everywhere, don't you know…"
The Vanisher was mumbling to himself but his voice stopped abruptly when a figure walked out if the shadows behind him
"Impossible"
The Vanisher was shocked when he saw "me" before him, proud and arrogant as always.
Then…there was no finishing his sentence
The second doppelganger quickly summoned my spirit energy and burned The Vanisher with it. Even if The Vanisher tried to escape by using his body shifting ability, he won't escape death because the spirit energy already latched itself with it. Unless I decided to [Control] him, I will die
The doppelganger's expression changed from arrogance to pity
"Only if he knew he is fighting a devil" the doppelganger commented
