Chapter 112: Second Phase part 1

’A paper?’ A paper suddenly appears in front of me.

’This must be my restriction’ I start reading what the director is going to take away from me or put on me in this duel, I hope it’s not something problematic.

[Your hand-to-hand combat has been prohibited, using it will result in immediate disqualification]

’…A pretty heavy condition…more simple’ very limiting, I was hoping to test my martial arts in this duel, I throw the paper away and continue looking for my target.

’Maybe going over the top would be better…more without flying it’ll be easy to see me flying’ I climb a tree and observe the area, then I silently jump from one tree to another and repeat the action of observing.

I keep repeating this until I stop a little far from a frozen lake.

’Are those monsters?’ Some kind of white and blue crocodile or alligator is on the frozen surface.

’There shouldn’t be monsters…would that be a condition? Then it has to do with my opponent…’ Soon I see Sakura.

’So she’s my enemy…it’ll be easy…another…another?…ANOTHER ONE?’ Sakura starts appearing, a whole bunch of them appear at once and keep coming.

’Is Sakura’s unique ability cloning? I don’t feel the clones are made of mana…plus I doubt students would know cloning magic…’ Soon the many Sakura clones start killing the monsters in the frozen lake.

’Is this like a Tower Defense?’ I doubt Sakura would waste time killing monsters for no reason, so the monsters must have something to do with her victory condition.

’I’m not going to let her…I need to stop it, but going there could be dangerous’ Each clone is using a different magic, and there are many, it may not be a good idea to go directly.

’I’m going to copy that damn pervert’ I never found out who was the damn pervert that did that to me, destroying my clothes, even though I looked for it during my free time after the end of the first phase.

However, it doesn’t change the fact that the pervert had talent, their attack was very good, at first I thought it was a weapon, but it was just magic, a very powerful light magic.

I don’t know the mold of a perfect weapon, and I don’t exactly know how that unfortunate pervert made the attack, so I’ll just make a standard magic circle, modify it, and create something similar.

I quickly draw a magic circle in the air and start modifying it, putting mana into the light element, quickly the magic circle takes shape, perfect for use.

I activate it and now I have a magic circle that fires compressed light element mana in the form of a bullet.

I soon fire the magic at one of the copies, the clone’s head explodes, spreading blood and brain matter on the ground, the snow and ice don’t do much to hide the scene, in fact they highlight it even more.

’…the clone bleeds? And it doesn’t disappear even after death…what a broken ability…’ it literally means having infinite meat shields, plus a possible army depending on how many clones she can make, and even worse if the clones have the strength of the original.

Unlike weapon, my magic is silent, so Sakura doesn’t know where the attack came from, all the clones quickly look to the sound of where the body fell, the clones are on alert but can’t find anything.

I soon blow the head of another unsuspecting clone with a shot, the scene is very beautiful, I like how the flesh deforms and spreads across the ground, I like it even more because it has the appearance of Sakura.

I’ve always hated how narcissistic she is, and even her unique ability is narcissistic, so I’m going to blow up the faces of all her clones, I’m sure that will make her angry.

The clones quickly start running and hiding in various places, but it’s no use, Sakura doesn’t have enough status to see the speed of my attack, so they don’t know exactly where it’s coming from.

I soon blow the heads of three more clones who thought they were well hidden.

’This…is fun, very fun’ I think as I aim to blow the head of another clone.

The clones use magic to try to defend themselves, but of course Sakura’s weak magic is no match for a shot that goes so fast that even the sound would be left behind.

Also, the compressed mana has absurd impact and penetration power, and fortunately there is not a single real sound, in 1 second the Sakura clone is fine and in the next second it’s painting the ground red.

’These monsters are kind of dumb’ the monsters don’t attack them, they just look and pass by while continuing to walk, but without leaving the perimeter of the frozen lake.

’Maybe if Sakura kills all the monsters she wins? That’s why she’s not running?’ I doubt the original Sakura is among the clones.

’So I should protect the monsters while eliminating as many Sakuras as possible’ I make several replicas of the magic circle, soon I start firing.

…

…

…

“…I think it’s hard” a clone says to me as he kicks the snow and bites the nail of my thumb.

“Who? Who is doing this?” I wonder as I see the vision of the clones, a true bloodbath happened there, someone suddenly started killing my clones.

At first it was just a few dying out of nowhere by what seemed like a headshot, but then suddenly a large number of these shots occurred and more than half of my clones died.

The entire clearing is completely covered with corpses and blood, of course the body will disappear after several hours, but even so it is a hateful sight.

I bite my nail so hard and deep that a little blood comes out.

’Who’s the damn one who’s killing everyone? And why only aim for my head?’ I hate how he’s destroying my image, my beautiful face being deformed by an unknown person fills me with rage.

“They seem to be coming from the North, but too far away for us to see who it is” My clone says, but the expression of my clone is also bad, my clone is also annoyed with the situation.

“Yes…” We don’t know the exact position, we only know that all the shots come from the same direction, but that last attack was weird, how did the shooter fire so many shots at once? And in class they said firearms are weak, is that weak? There’s no way that’s weak.

I generate more clones to replace the dead ones and send them, I need to eliminate all the monsters, my annoying condition prevents me from winning as long as there’s a single monster left alive.

I look at the note again.

[Find and defeat all the monsters in the frozen lake, after the defeat of all the monsters a 20-minute countdown will be active, if you are not defeated in 20 minutes you will be the winner, but the opponent will receive a warning when the countdown starts and will receive a note informing them of what they need to do]

’Who is my opponent?’ This mission is in a way advantageous for me, thanks to my unique ability.

Perfect Cloning – Allows the creation of exact replicas of myself, the replica will obey orders and unlike magic the replica is real, the replica will have 40% to 60% of the user’s power.

With this ability, my chances of victory with these conditions are very high, but it all fell apart quickly, I can’t even find out who my opponent is, nor can I kill the monsters.

I’m well away from the attack area, but even at this rate I won’t even be able to kill the monsters, and worst of all, the duels have a time limit, if I’m not mistaken it’s 12 hours, and if the time runs out I’ll be the loser for being the one who caused the least damage to my opponent.

“Clones can use all the magic they have” I order the clones, in case the clone’s magic runs out it will dissipate, but I need to kill the monsters no matter what.

I take control of one of the clones to see the situation in person.

What I see disgusts me, hundreds to thousands of my replicas litter the ground in a scene that is a true massacre, they were all killed by headshots, making the ground covered in bodies and brain matter.

The blood that has flowed forms a huge pool of blood that now practically covers the surface of the frozen lake.

’Who is this person? Another hero? Maybe a unique sniper ability?…’ I wish Hana was here, she would know what to do.

“Hum?…” Soon my vision is back in my body.

“…instant death…the shooter is not here to play…but I can do this for a long time” the clone I was controlling died, my clones don’t spend mana, in general most unique abilities tend not to spend mana.

What makes them easier to use and with fewer limits, I just hope my opponent is spending all their mana on their attacks.

And so I spend the next half hour constantly sending clones.

“IT’S NOT POSSIBLE” I say as I kick the snow with rage, the floor of the lake is no longer visible, thousands of corpses cover the ground that is covered in blood, the enemy attacker killed so many without stopping that the scene became a mess.

’Does he have infinite mana or something? How is it possible to attack so much without pause…it can’t be another student, can it? I’ve never seen a hero who said they had such a unique ability’

’There are still so many monsters left to kill…what do I do?’

“Hey, any ideas?” I ask the 5 clones I summoned to think with me, I have to come up with an idea fast.
