Episode 494:
Doppelganger.
A guy who is stronger than Taehyun and tries to take ownership of his body at every opportunity.
You were once your biggest enemy, and that fact still remains the same.
‘This guy must be eliminated someday.’
However, when mutual interests coincide.
‘There is no ally like this.’
Even in the days when he was no better than an insect by the standards of the grand dukes.
Even at the moment when he was no better than an insignificant monster by the absolute standard.
This guy was Taehyun’s biggest hidden card.
And now.
They said that the pieces of God were good food.
‘It’s not a lie.’
The predator at my feet was revealing its maw more vicious than ever.
‘Even if you grow up like this… doesn’t the need to risk your life remain the same?’
When Taehyun grows up, the doppelganger regains even more strength.
Until now, I have managed to maintain the initiative with some wit that could be called a trick or a catch.
Let’s anticipate the final battle that will happen someday.
Defeat. Mutual destruction. death. extinction. Erosion, etc.
I couldn’t help but think of bad thoughts.
The doppelganger read those thoughts and raised an eyebrow.
[Are you afraid of being eaten by this body?]
“Don’t be overconfident. “It’s too much confidence, even if it’s just a joke.”
[That shameless tongue is still alive. That’s good, I was worried that you might have forgotten your promise to this body.]
Promise.
The reason why the connection with the King of the Underworld was lost.
The power of predation.
Confirming the life or death of the original owner.
These were the things I thought I would hear from Lucifer if I were to finish the turf war.
The doppelganger didn’t know that either.
Nevertheless, the reason I am asking is to check on Taehyun’s condition.
I wonder if my fighting spirit was broken by the pieces in front of me.
Will I be able to take sufficient initiative in my future work?
If you disappoint yourself with an unfavorable answer.
Right now.
They will covet ownership of the body.
Taehyun, who was watching this, clicked his tongue slightly.
‘You were very determined.’
This is a guy who has lived arrogantly in a world of images for a long time.
With your own face.
There was no way he couldn’t read the thoughts of a guy with an expression he wasn’t used to.
It’s as if he is aware of Taehyun’s anxiety.
Taehyun also sees through the essence.
“promise. I remember it very well. “Don’t worry, I got some pretty interesting memories.”
[Hoo. Which?]
“If something goes, something must come.”
Taehyun glanced at Noname, who was observing them with interest.
[I know the general situation. Your battles are always cruel and desperate.]
Squeezing with overwhelming force is the basis of battle.
Taehyun asked what the odds were of victory, letting out sounds that didn’t even sound like words.
[Because your mental power is so exhausted. If you hand over that body, the chances will increase.]
The doppelganger answered with a sly expression.
‘You’re telling an obvious lie.’
The answer came out immediately without even thinking.
“It’s a refusal.”
[He’s also firm.]
The doppelganger giggled and snapped his fingers.
Just right.
Ahh!!!
The maw of predation scattered at the feet of the princes.
and.
Kwaduk!!!
The oppressive brilliance was torn away and the princes regained their movement.
Tiring.
[Skill Apocalypse (???) has been activated. Specifies the range.]
Hwaaaah. It’s a disaster. Hahahahaha.
A miniaturized darkness descended on the princes.
This is to protect them from the brilliance while they recover their minimum strength.
No, it would be better to buy a little more time.
Apocalypse’s condition is not perfect enough to completely block Noname’s brilliance.
[You have a clumsy idea.]
They are not meant to be protected, but swords to be wielded.
They said that because I was thinking such careless thoughts, I was falling to pieces.
[I will help you with this service this time. I don’t like people who go out without the landlord’s permission.]
The doppelganger who said that looked at Noname.
Contrary to his sarcasm, he was fully aware of the danger he faced.
This is because I have been watching it all along in the world of images.
If only Lucifer hadn’t limited his powers.
[I wonder if this body should have been tense as well.] The red
eyes, darker than ever, are beyond the brilliance.
I looked at the exposed crack without any intention of hiding it.
This is a phenomenon that appears because the sculpture’s body cannot withstand the use of excessive force.
[Interesting. Is it sealed like that?]
Looking at Noname saying something incomprehensible.
Tsk.
The doppelganger spat.
[A guy who doesn’t know the importance of the body. Don’t look at the subject of sculpture with such eyes.]
I didn’t like it.
Unlike himself, who cannot exist anywhere except in the body of Taehyun Kim.
The guy in front of me knows that he can change at any time as long as he has a suitable body.
‘The maintenance of that power will also be free.’
A freedom not granted to oneself.
Disgust boiled over.
The anger was intense.
Without even realizing it.
Quickly.
I got excited.
Quaaaaaaaaa.
Grrrr.
The maw of devouring made an evil sound in keeping with the exploding magic power.
It has a stronger magical power than any other monster in the underworld.
A smile appeared on Noname’s lips as he faced that power.
The favorable situation suddenly turned with the appearance of this guy.
Still, I couldn’t help but be happy.
Anyway, this guy’s origins are the same as mine.
[There is no need to relax. Are you not able to control the cracks?]
[You are the Creator who is looked down on by these creatures. This is ridiculous.]
This is the moment when Gwanghwi is trying to covet the Elven’s body.
Just right.
Wow!!
When the doppelganger snapped his fingers, the predatory maw blocked Radiance’s path.
[Didn’t I tell you?]
Don’t leave any pieces lying around.
[….]
The doppelganger raised its head as it looked at Noname being silent.
[original. Take a good look.]
How to defeat a god.
Like a hunter stalking his prey.
The corners of the doppelganger’s mouth turned up slyly.
* * *
Ugh. Wow. Ugh.
Kwazizijik.
Quad deud deuk.
Every time the maw of predation was created, the brilliance was torn away.
Taehyun saw the entire battle with his own two eyes.
Every time the brilliance was torn away, the cracks in the body noticeably increased.
‘Cody Cruz.’
Taehyun tried to determine the possibility of his comrade’s life or death.
I suddenly shook my head.
It has been eroded to this extent, so if the body is broken, regeneration will be impossible.
‘In the first place, even Lucifer was a contractor created with a purpose…’
I could feel the presence of the great dukes gathered at the Dragon Slayer Sword.
‘not good.’
These are the guys who surpassed their limits several times in this battle.
Considering his history of always showing monstrous recovery, the speed was miserable.
‘The rebound is coming.’
The use of great power comes with great risk.
If it goes any further than this, there is a high possibility that we will all fall into disrepair.
‘In that case, even if the turf war ends in victory, the tribal war will not be able to be carried out.’
A superficial victory.
Rather than taking something like that, it would be better to take defeat for practical purposes.
‘Is this where the archdukes end?’
Taehyun thought so as he watched the battle between the two monsters.
The maw of devouring was chewing and swallowing the five holy spears.
When one predation explodes, the doubled maw reveals its teeth in various places, pouring out brilliance.
Kwasik!!!
Right after one of the maws bit off one of Noname’s legs.
Grumbling!!!
Noname’s body was covered in blue flames.
Blue fire.
The divine power used by Lucifer, who had the ‘eyes of the sun’.
It imitates that power.
The clinging maw of the predator melted away without a trace.
[What are you saying?]
Exactly.
The doppelganger snapped his fingers again.
Wow. Wow. Wow.
Dozens of predators surrounded Cheonghwa.
And the moment when it is thrust into the mouth all at once.
Ssssss.
The positions of Doppelganger and Noname were reversed.
[…!!]
“…!!”
moon eye.
By imitating Taehyeon’s power of Horus, he even deceived Predation.
Kwasik!!
The doppelganger’s predation only lasted for a moment.
There was enough time for Noname to reach the Elven.
Penetrating the apocalypse, cutting off the branches of the resisting Divine Beast, the brilliance reached the Elven.
No, it’s the moment when you try to reach it.
Kyaang!!!
The dragon slayer sword that dug in struck away the brilliance.
Paz, that is. That’s it.
He lowered his sword while scattering thunderbolts.
Grumbling.
Sssss.
Flames and coldness enveloped Taehyun’s body.
The eye of the sun and the eye of the moon.
It has too strong a presence to be simply called imitation.
[Isn’t it the same for you as well? That’s ironic. The last technique used by consuming the body was directed at a close friend.] That
was the end of those words.
Damn. Damn it.
I could clearly feel the cracks in the dragon slayer sword.
‘no.’
The cracks continued not only in the dragon slayer sword, but also in Cody Cruz’s body.
Blah blah blah…
Cracks spread all over the body.
Kachang!!!
It broke into pieces with a loud noise.
Hwaaaah.
The brilliance scattered.
and.
[It is indeed a body worthy of the name Grand Duke.]
“…!!”
It was instinct.
I swung my dragon slayer sword at the voice I heard behind me.
Phew.
A sharp branch pierced my chest.
Damn.
The sound of the pierced magic stone breaking apart could be clearly heard.
[A fairy king who wields divine powers. Indeed, it is a body worthy of being a vessel.]
Unlike Taehyun’s distorted expression.
Noname, who took on the body of an Elven, said with a gentle smile.
* * *
Tiring.
[The unique skill Predation (???) has been activated.]
[The skill is not used smoothly.]
[The skill is weakened.]
Kwajik.
The predator that appeared beneath my feet bit off the branch of the divine tree.
Gagagagagak.
The magical power emanating from the dragon slayer sword shook off two types of power that covered the body.
It’s just a matter of moving the body.
‘strong.’
At least twice as much.
Compared to when I woke up in Cody Cruz’s body, I felt that level of eeriness.
This may be due to the characteristics of the Elven, who are connected to the vessel called the Archduke and the Divine Beast and use infinite magical power.
‘We can’t win like this.’
[You couldn’t wait for that moment and switched.]
The doppelganger approached.
Just right.
With a snap of his fingers, a predatory maw wrapped around the Elven’s body.
It was blocked up, down, left and right, and the view was blocked to prevent movement.
‘Wait a minute…’
Wait.
This is the moment to shout like that.
bang!!!
The maw of predation was torn apart.
The doppelganger’s red eyes twitched.
[also. [It’s a body that matches well.]
The Elven who became Noname’s new host spoke with joy.
[That’s unpleasant. In this world of bodies. This is the first time I’ve seen you be so arrogant and arrogant.]
This is the moment when the doppelganger is about to snap his fingers once again.
[Hmm. Is it okay to do it like this?]
Exactly.
Hahahahaha.
One of the eight apocalypses maintained by Taehyun was released.
Rosaria’s appearance was revealed.
[contractor!! [Danger…]
Even before she finished shouting.
Just right.
Noname snapped his fingers again.
Colorless magic mixed with brilliance enveloped Rosaria.
‘crazy.’
[original. It’s already too late.]
The doppelganger said, blocking Taehyun from using Predation.
“What bullshit…”
are you saying?
The moment I was about to say that.
Following brilliance and colorlessness.
Tsuzuzu. Tsuzzzzzz. Tsuzzzzzz.
Purple magical power bloomed from the Elven’s body.
[….]
“…!!”
Unlike his doppelganger, Taehyun, who has a stern expression.
Noname, who took over the body of an Elven, had a gentle expression on his face.
[First.]
Let’s start with the succubus queen.
Streak.
The corners of the Elven’s mouth rose as her blue eyes opened.
