The princes, the princesses, and Lilia all unsheathed their weapons as they saw the skeletons getting closer to them, and at the same time looking at many more skeletons that continuously crawled out of the crevasse. Hawk, Benjamin, and Ryn try to take an animal form but they find it impossible and ask why then Esther says to them “there is no magic in here so since you are magical creatures the magic that always makes you change won't work here”.

Hearing that, Hawk took Mike's sword saying to him that he hadn't fully recovered and he should sit this out. Mike, Benjamin, and Ryn were put in the middle since they won't be able to fight. Ramsay said to everyone “we will fight them pushing them backward toward the cave. We are going forward not backward”.

“But aren't them too many for us to handle?” said Kylie.

“Yeah they are but they are just skeletons so we should be able to handle them” said Noah.

“They even have nice weapons. I even wondered what happened to them and where they got th

    Ramsay was surprised by the way Manqin fought against him. Ramsay was expecting Manqin not to be as good as the Marcs but Manqin seemed to be better than the Marcs. Ramsay knew it was going to be hard to defeat Manqin since he hadn't fully completed his training with the great Kings, couldn't use his magic, and the sword had no power inside the mountain but he had to find a way to defeat Manqin which he began to think of as he now fights Manqin using his defensive moves after using his offensive him that was fruitless against Manqin. Ramsay also wondered where Manqin learned how to fight in such ways or maybe because he is not a normal skeleton.Watching the fight, the princesses, the princes, Hawk, Benjamin, Ryn, and Lilia were shocked to see that Manqin was one hell of a fighter.

Redrick and Esther saw as the map made some words visible to them and they read it out loud “the wild forest is a maze and to get out of it safely you need to follow the path which the moon will light up when it is night. Don't ever get out of the path or else you won't make it out alive”.The princes, the princesses, Hawk, Ryn, Lilia, and Benjamin all sat down in front of the wild forest to talk about the wild forest and waited till night so the moon could light up the path. Ryn said “am in doubt that we will make it out of the forest alive”.“Why would you say that? Do you want us all to die?” Redrick asked Ryn.“You can see what it takes us to get out of the mountain and how can we be so sure that we will get out of the wild forest easily? I don’t think our

They were all surprised to see themselves tied to the trees by the vines surrounding their body and looked at each other. They also saw their weapons and other things on the ground right in front of them. Redrick said “as usual.. Always finding ourselves in trouble”, feeling down.“What the fuck are the vines doing?” said Benjamin.“Who knows? But I don’t think they are trying to kill us if we are still very much alive and not hurt even after they knock us out” said Kinsley.“What if they are just taking their time? I said it. This journey was a bad idea. Let's hope we survive this and make it out alive” said Ryn.“We all will. All we need to think about right now is how to free ourselves from these vines that are tying us down” said Noah.“And how is that going to be possible? First, these

Even as Kinsley's hands were bleeding from the cut the sword made in his palms, Kinsley still refused to let the sword go deeper into his right chest and he had to endure whatever pain he was feeling at that moment if he wanted to remain alive. However, at that same time, Kinsley was hearing what Kylie, Esther, Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Lilia, Ryn, Tracy, Mike, Hawk, and Camelia were talking about, so when Kinsley heard Hawk say that there was no way he could defeat the skill, Kinsley felt he was gonna die at that moment.

Kinsley could not even listen to the others because he had to save himself from getting killed.Hawk’s duplicate was speedily attacking Kinsley with the sword in its hands, its elbows, its left fist, its feet, and its knees at the same time.

Kinsley would like to stop fighting at that moment because the fight was getting too much for him to handle, but he could not since he had begun t

Kylie laughed out loud that they all could hear her laughing as they were getting beaten by their duplicates.Esther, Ramsay, Mike, Noah, Benjamin, Lilia, Kinsley, Hawk, Ryn, Tracy, and Camelia do not mind what Kylie is doing at that moment by making fun of them as they get beaten by their duplicates because they have to be serious not to get thrashed by their duplicates.Just like Esther, Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Lilia, Kinsley, Hawk, Mike, Ryn, Tracy, and Camelia had expected and been told, they gave chances to their duplicates to hit them eve

  • Kylie Skills

  • Mirror

    Esther, Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Lilia, Ryn, Kylie, Mike, Kinsley, Tracy, Camelia, and Hawk fought their duplicate at the same time. No one had each other time because they were all busy fighting another of them. Fighting their duplicates was something they all thought was gonna be easy not until they were fighting themselves and they all realized that it was not what they had all thought. Esther thought it was gonna be easy to defeat herself while she attacked her duplicate, but it was kind of hard for her because her duplicate was doing the exact thing Esther did. If Esther decides to be defensive while fighting her duplicate to defeat it, the duplicate will also fight Esther back defensively, and If Esther is offensive as she fights her duplicate to defeat it, the duplicate will also fight Esther back offensively. Every move Esther makes, both offensive and defensive, as she fights her duplicate are the same moves the duplicate makes as she fights Esther back, including all the fig

  • DUPLICATES

    Esther, Ramsay, Noah, Benjamin, Lilia, Ryn, Kylie, Mike, Kinsley, Tracy, Camelia, and Hawk had to decide on who was going to fight whose duplicate, and the decision fell on Esther to decide since she would be the one to take responsibility for whatever happens.Since they would all be fighting each other duplicate in martial arts and swords, Esther made the pick based on everyone's physical abilities and skills when it comes to fighting. The others have to agree to whoever duplicate Esther chooses for each of them to fight and that is because they all could not bring themselves to make such a decision.Esther picked herself to fight Ramsay's duplicate because if there is ever anyone who can hold off Ramsay for as long as she can until she finds her way to defeat Ramsay, it has got to be her. Ramsay martial arts skills and swordsmanship skills are not what any of them could challenge, but Esther thinks she can manage for as long as she needs to defeat Ramsay, so she finds herself fit f

The mountain made us fall unconscious and brought us to this sphere that could create one's duplicate. It is all the mountain doing" said Benjamin in his mind."I think the question should be how do we get out of here because it is still the same thing that will happen to our physical bodies if we remain here. Regardless of the illusion of whatever it is that we meet and face in here, our bodies will become food to the Syrics if we don't regain consciousness" said Mike worriedly in his mind."Mike said the right words for once in
