Chapter 517 Aoi And The Fake Aoi
Inside the white barrier, the surrounding area got covered by a dome of the purple dome. A manifestation of destruction energy.
Sofia looked at the entire place. Purple clusters of energy. She could feel that she could manipulate it with a thought.
She came out of her thoughts and manipulated the energy on the ground to shape them into spikes. Inside the destruction domain, everything is her weapon. Every purple energy was at her disposal.
"You are now at my mercy." Sofia raised her hand, causing multiple spikes to charge toward her sluggish fake self.
Sofia\'s replica tried to control the destruction domain, but the energy inside would even budge. \'So it can\'t control anything new that I created? Is it because she could only use skills and abilities at the time she was generated?\'
She had this guess for a while now. Sofia had been thinking that to defeat her fake self; she has to break through her limit and do what she couldn\'t previously. In her speculation, the replica that she was fighting only copied the version of herself from the start, but couldn\'t copy her ongoing state.
Now, the result speaks for itself. Her speculation was on point! Her fake self couldn\'t copy the changes and couldn\'t keep up with her improvement. This is the weak link that Sofia managed to find, and through desperation, she finally pulled it off.
Sofia felt proud at the fact that she finally managed to find solutions even without Fein\'s presence. It\'s just a sign that she was really improving not only in strength but also in her mentality. Only in this way would she really become worthy of Fein.
She was really depressed at the fact that she couldn\'t keep up with Fein. After all, Fein was really good at everything, excellent at all aspects. But her? She\'s just a dumbbell that has a fairly good background and a silver spoon in her mouth. Fortunately, all the work that she put on wasn\'t in vain.
\'I hope Voli and Aoi are doing all right.\' Sofia clenched her fist. She was really worried about them.
After all, the only way to win when the opponent is yourself is to break your limit. And breaking the limit isn\'t easy to do. It requires talent, and more importantly, opportunity and luck.
As for Fein, Sofia didn\'t even think about it. After all the time she spent with him, Fein\'s image became that of someone extremely capable, he always has calm thinking and the poise of a logical man.
Just like that, Sofia obligated her opponent with her destruction energy. After the fight, the white film receded, then she saw Fein.
"You\'re finally done." Fein looked glad as he saw Sofia. He felt that the pressure on his shoulders decreased suddenly.
Although he trusts his friends. Fein knew more than anyone that life was a bitch. He knew that not everything would go in a person\'s expectation. That\'s why Fein always hoped for the best but also expects the worst.
"Yeah," Sofia walked beside Fein. "I almost lost to myself. It\'s a tough fight. I nearly died,"
Hearing this, Fein immediately hugged Sofia around her waist. And whispered, "I was really worried. But I have faith in you."
"Thank you..." Sofia smiled sweetly when she heard this. All the negative emotions and the nervousness she felt from the close-death encounter suddenly faded. "I hope the others are also okay."
"Believe in them, they can do it," Fein said with a reassuring smile.
After their conversation, Fein and Sofia released themselves from the hug and sat on the white ground. Sofia talked about the process of her fight with the fake Sofia to Fein and told him her thought process.
"So that\'s the key to surpassing the challenge of this floor? I think this organization is really capable. To be able to create a replica of their intruders. It even copied all the techniques that I created and my fighting style. Unfortunately for them, everything has its weakness." Fein couldn\'t help but chuckle.
Sofia leaned her body closer to Fein. "It might be an artifact."
"Most probably... With hundreds or even thousands of years of inheritance, it would be reasonable to possess this kind of treasure. However, everything has a weakness that could be exploited. If it\'s really an artifact, its weakness is it couldn\'t make the replica of ourselves adapt and break its limit during the battle. And it can\'t copy our weakness."
\'He managed to analyze its weakness quickly!?\' Sofia was stunned by her man\'s analytical skills.
Seeing Sofia\'s expression, Fein smiled inwardly.
...
After two hours passed, Voli finally appeared in front of Sofia and Fein. Just like Sofia, Voli just broke through in the middle of the battle and created a new ability application that combines his lightning and wind manipulation.
Though, Voli didn\'t have degu energy left in his body. He used all of it because of the large consumption of his Pre-Historic Bear Form and Golden Bear Form. He also has bruises on his body, a heavy injury on his back, and a deep wound on his thigh caused by a bite.
Five minutes after Voli\'s appearance, Aoi followed, but unlike Voli, Aoi didn\'t have any wounds on her body, and she wasn\'t even exhausted. Even her degu consumption has only seven percent consumption.
This made Fein, Sofia, and Voli curious. After all, Aoi was the last to come out. It was just logical that Aoi should have the most intense fight. Fein mainly doubts why Aoi didn\'t have wounds after hours of fighting.
But as Aoi told them what happened, it made them suspicious and doubtful. It turned out that Aoi didn\'t have wounds on her body because she didn\'t fight in the first place. And she only took longer because of one reason.
Aoi was the type of monster that has an unbothered personality. Dislikes fighting, is a fairly rational thinker and is introverted. Due to it, her fake self also has this personality. So the fake Aoi didn\'t bother to fight at all but just ignored Aoi.
Aoi didn\'t bother at all and let the fake Aoi do its own thing. In the end, Aoi only managed to come out because the sixth floor deemed Aoi the winner randomly, as Aoi\'s opponent didn\'t have the motivation or will to fight!
