Chapter 104

In the battle with their doppelgangers, the cuople used only their sword skills and one of the first unique abilities they had.

Although their relationship had not reached even greater heights, their "affection" status was already 50%, which also affected the increase in the percentage of character exchange.

After they dealt with their doppelgangers, the couple felt a strange feeling.

Before that, they had only fought and killed beasts.

The first meeting with his doppelgangers took place more than two months ago. Back then, they were defeated and couldn't deal with them personally. However, the sight of their own corpses that they saw back then was a bit shocking.

This time, they dealt with their doppelgangers with their own hands, and it had some effect on them.

The couple understood that sooner or later they would have to raise their hands against humans or other races similar to humans. They might have to fight to the death and kill them. They were ready for this, especially since they had memories of the ascension trial, where they were already up to their elbows in the blood of people.

But even that didn't get rid of the strange feeling that gripped them.

They stood for a while, and then, trying to get rid of the strange feeling, shook their heads and decided to focus on something else.

They were thrilled to be able to defeat these terrifying "Perfect Doppelgangers" without using their hidden cards like bloodlines and the unique "swap" feature.

Although Idan couldn't use his bloodline, that didn't stop him from swapping places with Arabel at the right moment so she could deal with his doppelganger.

They met eyes and were glad to see that they had succeeded.

However, in their joy, they forgot and did not take into account that the "Perfect Doppelgangers" restrained themselves and did not use all their might. They decided to fight one-on-one, copying only themselves.

Unlike other types of doppelgangers, "Perfect Doppelgangers" could copy multiple creatures, retain these forms, and change them at will at any moment.

At this time, on the other side of the clearing, the battle was not developing as successfully as the couple's.

After a while, Liam and Eulalia began to lose ground, feeling the pressure from their doppelgangers. They realized that if this went on, they would be defeated.

The others who were watching began to worry as well. They realized that if this continued, they would lose.

Almost simultaneously, everyone turned their gaze to Milica's doppelganger, who had been watching the couple with a smile the entire time, ignoring Liam and Eulalia.

She had long lost interest in the two of them and seemed to know in advance what the outcome would be.

The gaze of those around her could not distract her from her thoughts.

It was only when Alois and Nemo, seeing that Milica's doppelganger was not paying attention to them, decided to intervene, that she finally took her eyes off the couple and said:

— That's enough! Come back! — she commanded the two "Perfect Doppelgangers", who by this time had already completely exhausted Liam and Eulalia.

The winner was already a foregone conclusion.

The doppelgangers, without objecting, obeyed her order and returned to their places in the building.

"You, you and you!" said Milica's doppelganger, pointing at Nemo, Idan and Arabel. "Follow me! The rest stay here!"

With these words, she entered the building through the ajar door, which by this time had already returned to its place.

Nemo, Idan, and Arabel exchanged glances. It was a complete surprise to them. They did not expect at all that events would take such a turn.

Alois, Eulalia, and Liam also started to worry. Especially Eulalia, as the oldest among them, was worried about her younger comrades.

However, the barrier was still in place, and they couldn't retreat.

"It's going to be okay, Senior. Rest and wait here," Arabel told Eulalia and followed Idan and Nemo. Idan and Nemo nodded to Liam and Alois in silence and headed towards the building.

The trio cautiously approached the slightly ajar door, but at that moment it abruptly swung open, startling them.

When they stepped back, startled, not only the door, but the entire building creaked, as if laughing at them.

The trio's right eye twitched when they realized that they were really being laughed at.

After crossing the threshold, they froze in place, and goosebumps ran through their bodies, as they clearly felt several dozen gazes staring at them at once.

They were looked at from all sides, from all angles.

It was incredibly uncomfortable to stand there under the gaze of so many hidden creatures.

"This way!" they suddenly heard the voice of Milica's doppelganger coming from behind the ajar door that led to another room.

After listening to her words, the three of them, under the gazes of so many creatures, headed towards where the voice came from.

Upon entering, they found that Milica's doppelganger was sitting at the table, and an animal resembling a small black kitten with large golden eyes was comfortably sitting on her lap, which was staring at them with its curious gaze.

She ran her gaze over all three of them, and then fixed it on Nemo and did not take her gaze off him.

Milica's doppelganger also noticed this and gently stroked her head.

And then something unexpected happened that amazed all three of them. The little kitten, without taking his eyes off, began to transform into a little black wolf cub right in front of their eyes.

"Idan! It seems to me that this is the very being I'm thinking of...", Arabel did not have time to finish her thought, as Idan immediately confirmed her words.:

"Yes, this is exactly the unique creature that Nemo must tame."

Both of them did not take their eyes off the wolf cub.

The purpose of their mission was so close, but at the same time far away.

She was sitting right on the lap of the strongest being in this Forbidden Zone.

And how does the System think they should help Nemo tame her?
