Dungeon Hunter (던전사냥꾼)

Chapter 60: Fight with Oneself

The gathering of the angels and manifestation of the sacred zone had some influence on the demons. Ariel and Upa stopped their war for a while. Maxium's fight with a gorgon was also disrupted before resuming again.

Pandemonium...he rallied his power and tried to determine the movements of the angels. He had discovered Martin's death. It was like gunpowder on the brink of exploding.

"My Dungeon Master. The Trees of Life and Death have grown normally."

Chrisley returned to the dungeon.

She came to see me to report on her mission.

I stood motionless near the Tree of Origin as I watched it. I didn't answer but Chrisley just nonchalantly continued.

"The emergence frequency of Awakened has more than doubled and their growth rate is quite fast. Roy and Rose's positions are stable...there are several candidates for a king."

"Hrmm."

I took out Wrath and the Emperor's Sword. Then I wielded the two swords with my eyes closed. I was listening to Chrisley. I just wasn't greatly interested.

It was what I had been expecting.

"The girin has named seven people as candidates. Two of the humans are Yoo Eun-hye and Edward. The decisive battle will take place on the sacred day with the biggest moon."

"Will all the humans agree with the outcome of the battle?

"Yes. I'm afraid..."

"I will observe it."

If the Saviour emerged then it would feel more auspicious. Roy and Rose might be able to move the humans with greater force. My appearance was needed.

I moved Wrath as I made a decision.

Hwik!

Wrath quickly split through the air but I shook my head.

'Strange.'

I had gone to the Tree of Origin several times to fight against myself. My clone appeared and I used my skills and swordsmanship, yet I always lost.

The clone's stats weren't higher...and I lost most of my memories of the fight every time. It was like some type of 'cognition.'

My memories were scattered. After a few challenges, I tried to remember the feeling with my swords.

In addition, one of my pure stats rose after recalling those memories. Strength increased by one. This was a surprising result.

'I would need a few months to raise a pure stat by one point using ordinary methods. If one increased in less than 10 days...the possibilities are enough.'

I decided that it was suitable for growing quickly, so I focused more on my fights against the clone.

The person certainly had the same stats and skills as me. However, he seemed to use my power more flexibly than I did.

I tried to make some preparations based on my memories but it was difficult to prepare for the 'unknown.'

"My Dungeon Master. Are you troubled about something?"

"Have you ever fought with yourself?"

"With myself..."

Chrisley thought about it with a serious expression.

"Recently...there was a similar fight in the training room."

"Tell me."

The advanced training room.
