Chapter 21—— Imugi’s Nest IV.

Druke rushes Seth with a strike of his blade but Seth shields with his blade.

"Arghhh— you're no joke, I'll have to be serious"

Seth unleashes his crimson aura, Druke sees this and smiles, "Okayy!!.... you're stronger than I thought, I'll use mine also, Destroyers Aura"

Druke had unleashed a diabolical presence, Seth jumps back out of fear, "he is strong, plus with the experience he has, which skill can I use to close up this gap in experience"

Notice. To counter this opponent you'll need to employ the unique skill doppelgänger lv???.

Seth words in confusion, "what does that skill have to do with this scenario, I'm more at a disadvantage if the clone is hit I take damage, half my life source is in the double"

Notice. The skill would raise your chances by two, you could employ magic to augment swordsmanship.

"That's true, the double could fight with magic while I fight with my sword, Use— Doppelgänger skill"

Confirmed. Deploying body double, taking mp required, do you wish to send all spell and magic analysis to the double

YES

NO.

"Yes— I agree"

Confirmed. All analysis deploy, activating double.

There was a swirl of energy around, Druke felt it and leaped away, the energy dispersed revealing another Seth.

"Ooh— you have the body double skill, very efficient this fight just got interesting"

Seth jumps right at Druke and in the same moment the body backs him with a recoileless fire lance.

Seth backs away leaving the fire lances to go first, "Hmph— it might look strong but I'm sure it a trivial spe--" 

Druke wave his blade in efforts to braze of the spell but then he was in shock as the attack seemed more powerful than it looked.

"Don't tell me this is an invented spell, you're as powerful as our queen, you're a threat I'll have to end you, I bear no grudge against you"

Druke raises his hand, imbues it with his diabolical aura, he bolts in Seth's direction but then the double attacks with a fire ball spell, Druke jumps back and words, "Seth!, let's end this with the next move"

Seth smiles and activates all his kata, he then looks at Druke who was ready to attack, both vanish and then reappear suddenly Druke falls to the floor with an injury clear in his chest, Seth on the other hand had cuts on his hand.

"Who knew you're a master in the art of kata, you won me Seth"

Seth turns as he words to Druke, "You're strong, it's a shame to see you go like this, I don't know any spell that heals"

Druke laughs out, "you're really thinking to help someone who wants to kill you, just go before reinforcements get here"

Seth is pushed away by Druke, he moves deep into the labyrinth leaving Druke laying on the floor.

"Druke!, don't tell me you're inferior to that kid, he bested you"

A voice said out to Druke, a shadow appears under his body, he sank in and he's teleported to the room he was formally at.

"Dark heal"

After this wording purple like threads of magic can be seen stitch Druke's injury, he became energized as he tries to get up.

"ughh— my queen, he is strong, a master in the kata art, and adept master in magic, but I don't sense any killing intent from him"

Druke tries to sway his queen from killing Seth, she laughs hard and then word.

"Now you have peaked my curiosity, if we are to both fight who will be the victor?, I'll confirm this in our next meeting"

Meanwhile, three days have passed since Seth's fight with Druke.

"I've spent up almost two weeks in this labyrinth, but the exit is hard to find, I have no time for this"

As Seth continues on moving, he came to another room like a that of a boss room, he pushes the door, it creaks open to reveal a room full of treasures, gold coins and weapons of class.

"Man!, I hit a jackpot, I'll claim all this gold for myself, dad once told me of a currency of gold in this world, I think it was called magnum"

Seth moves close to the gold and stretches his hand and words. "Store"

Notice. You have acquired 500,000 gold magnum, a wallet option has been added to your profile.

"Woaw!!, that's a lot if I'm correct that said a gold magnum is 1000 silver magnum, which means I've stumbled on 5,000,000 magnum"

As Seth rejoiced with his new findings a voice leaked from the shadows.

"So, you're a canal one, I had to make sure what kind of personality you had to serve you a better punishment"

Slithering from the shadows was a giant snake, Seth sensed so much energy pressure from it.

"What power!!"

He blurts in fear, he moves back gradually gauging the strength of his opponent.

"hahah..... that's a good sense of judgement coming from you, I am the one you call the imugi"

Seth looked scared to his feet that his speed kata was activated ready to leap away, the imugi began to talk.

"I am the queen of this labyrinth and I am called Frey, naturally I'm here to kill you, but before that I'll humor you with a tell tale"

The imugi spoke but there was no motion from here mouth, Seth thought in his mind asking how he could hear her.

Notice. The target is using unique skill, Astral Telepathy on you.

"Ohh—— so that's how, Frey tell me your tale but understand one thing I bite back very hard"

Frey laughs very hard and then she comes into the light, she looked like a dragon but with out limbs and wings but something about her seemed royal.

She had red like armor for scales over her body, she began to speak.

"I was once an imperial beast king of the Heavenly Realm, loved by all even the master there, but the greed of my fellow brethren casted me down to this lowly realm, although the loved of the master for me was much that he still left me with my celestial powers but when I came down made sure to bring down three other beast kings"

Seth didn't get where the story led to he gulped on his saliva and waited her to continue.

"Of us all that were casted I was the only one imprisoned and so I have no offsprings but I hear stories that my fellow beast kings have their own offsprings, essence of what I'm saying is, you disturb me in my prison and you'll have to pay with your life"
