Chapter 132: Meanwhile, in the Forest of Doppelgangers part 3

Thanks to the coordinated work of the three doppelgangers, they were able to easily and quickly elude their pursuers without being noticed.

Idan and Arabelʼs doppelgängers acted by choosing the weakest groups of opponents first, while Eulaliaʼs doppleganger provided cover.

The three creatures, dubbed ”Perfect Doppelgangers” by locals and outsiders, were considered the most powerful creatures in this Forbidden Zone.

They were feared, and legends were made about them, but there was one indisputable statement that was not in doubt: ”Ideal Doppelgangers” are not able to leave the central layer.

Today, this claim has been refuted.

The three ”Perfect Doppelgangers” broke free from the shackles of the central layer, invaded the middle layer, and wreaked havoc among the locals and outsiders who came to this Forbidden Area in order to ambush their masters.

Within a few hours, the trio of Doppelgangers successfully neutralized several small groups consisting of representatives of the ”Silver” and ”Golden” ranks. At the same time, they deliberately avoided collisions with representatives of the ”Platinum” and ”Diamond” ranks.

If a meeting with the latter became inevitable, Eva, Eulaliaʼs Doppelganger, intervened and helped the other two members of the group successfully avoid a collision.

Panic and chaos reigned among a group of locals and outsiders.

Eva was amazed to discover that two of her close friends, who are also ”Perfect Doppelgangers,” had undergone significant changes after signing contracts. Right in front of her eyes, this couple was performing actions that she couldnʼt even comprehend.

As one of the ”Perfect Doppelgangers,” Eva was well aware of the limits of her abilities in the field of imitating and copying other beings.

However, ever since these two had arrived in this place, they had never once used their abilities to imitate and copy others, almost always remaining in the guise of their masters. It was only during their escape that they took on the appearance of small creatures from their collections collected in this Forbidden Zone.

These two, like their masters, possessed the power of the ”Silver” rank, but at the same time they could cross the boundaries of ranks and fight with creatures of the ”Golden” rank. In the previous encounter with their masters, they were not capable of such a thing.

What was especially remarkable to Eve was how the two of them moved and fought—synchronously, without mistakes, and with amazing fluidity. Sometimes, one of them would explode with force while the other retreated, and when the enemy targeted the weaker one, the latter would explode with force, as if they were deliberately creating a trap for their opponents.

However, Eva knew that their masters had demonstrated a similar ability. It was thanks to this sudden burst of power that the two were defeated. It seems that after signing the contract, they acquired the same skill as their masters.

In light of the growing number of victims among the participants of the ”Silver” and ”Gold” ranks, the leaders who tried to stop the violators, but failed, decided to withdraw all groups in order to minimize losses.

The survivors were overcome with panic and fear. They were relieved by the decision to recall all the bands and were finally able to breathe freely.

The leaders, who were in a difficult position and unable to handle the situation, could only curse the couple.

Having gathered together, all the powerful beings began to discuss further actions, but then the one who was connected to Limboʼs Mind received information that shocked everyone present. Even the Diamond-ranked creatures were startled and a little scared.

Limboʼs mind finally realized that those who were attacking them were not aliens, but ”Perfect Doppelgangers” masquerading as aliens.

Moreover, these Doppelgangers were originally part of the Forbidden Zone, but the aliens somehow managed to subdue them and turn them into their subordinate Doppelgangers, who, like themselves, became Anomalies beyond the control of the rules of this world.

Finally, everyone realized the gravity of the situation. Everyone knew that ”Perfect Doppelgangers” are able to copy their opponent almost perfectly. This suggested that those who attacked them, eliminating the weak, had not actually even started serious action yet. After all, the power of the ”Silver” rank had been emanating from the attackers all this time.

But what happens if they copy someone of the ”Golden” or ”Platinum” rank? What if they try to copy someone of the ”Diamond” rank?

A shiver ran down everyoneʼs spine. It was a disaster.

While the leaders, realizing the gravity of the situation, tried to find a way out of the current situation, the perpetrators of the incident gathered together.

Eva looked at her companions in surprise, who still had a strange, satisfied smile on their faces. She was a little jealous of them. She also wanted to have fun and enjoy life to the fullest. But she was instructed by her master to just support the two of them for a while, and after that period ends, step back and return to her master.

And that deadline was inexorably approaching.

Idan and Arabelʼs doppelgangers fully tasted the charm of the game and were filled with joy. And this joy of theirs was passed on to their masters through their contract.

By virtue of this contract, they have become ”Anomalies” beyond the control of the rules of this world. For them, killing locals and outsiders had no meaning and did not entail any consequences in the form of punishment. Their connection to the masters also provided them with the protection provided by the contract between Limboʼs Mind and Milica.

However, the most remarkable aspect that the two acquired was their unique pair bond, which united them like Idan and Arabel. This allowed them to gain a simplified version of their unique abilities, ”Exchange of Stats”, which allowed them to exchange power, and ”Swap”, which allowed the doppelgangers to swap places.

It was thanks to this connection that the two could so skillfully and synchronously fight against a superior opponent in both numbers and rank. They mostly used the ability to exchange thoughts and exchange power, still without resorting to the ”Swap” ability.

Although they had become stronger, their maximum rank was limited to two ranks. It follows that if they copy the appearance and abilities of a Diamond-ranked creature, their rank will be Platinum, not Diamond. Along with the rank, the strength of the copied abilities of the target will decrease.

However, this restriction did not cause them much distress, as it was mostly offset by the acquisition of the amazing abilities of their masters.

Time passed inexorably, and there was less and less time to play.

Deciding to make one last sortie before Eva left, they headed towards the enemy camp.

In the depths of the Central Layer of the Forbidden Layer, Geminia, watching the antics of her race, couldnʼt help but sigh.

These children were too rebellious.

The building, disagreeing with her opinion, began to shake.

They were all jealous of the three of them, wanting the same thing.

Geminia just shook her head.

”The day will come when you all get what you want, you just have to wait a bit. Is it okay?” Geminia said with concern, and the house, as if agreeing with her, swayed slightly.

Sierra was rapidly approaching the first city, dragging Idan and Arabel with her. All this time, Idan and Arabel could clearly feel the emotions of their contracted counterparts, and it caused them strange feelings.

They were almost overwhelmed with joy, mixed with some kind of madness. It was an unusual feeling for Arabel, but Idan, who had absorbed so much of the energy of madness, knew it.

Both realized that they had signed a contract with two madmen, and began to think about how to subdue these two doppelgangers and make them a little docile.
