Chapter 134: Blackout

After Henry duplicated himself into two, he felt that his vision had suddenly shifted. Currently, he felt that he could see things from two different perspectives. At the same time, he felt that he could transfer his main consciousness into any of the two.

Currently, he felt that he had full control over the two. But, he still felt that there was a possibility of focusing his consciousness in one body. After that happened, the other body was going to move according to the commands that he was going to give.

Nevertheless, Henry did not shift his consciousness since he wanted to have full control over the two. He didn’t think that he was going to have the time to start giving commands while at the same time moving on his own.

With the two having taken on the roles that they were going to play, Henry moved. One of them charged towards the clone with the sword. As for the other one, it attacked the second clone.

With this division, there was balance that was brought back. But, unlike where one of the clones was weaker, Henry obviously held a great advantage.

At the same time, although Henry had divided the way that he was going to fight, he really didn’t have an absolute target. For that reason, his attacks were random in that, the clone could not predict them at all.

In no time, the two clones that previously seemed indestructible suddenly began suffering injuries. Purple blood began spewing out of the wounds that had been inflicted by Henry.

The clone who didn’t have much time to deal with Henry was completely overwhelmed. There was not even a single attack that had caused any considerable damage on Henry.

The thing that completely dumbfounded the clone was the fact that, after Henry duplicated himself, he duplicated everything about himself. It was not just the fact that both the two had the same combat power, but, even the skills and the equipment that they were possessing were the same.

Henry had thought that he would need to put in a lot more effort to ensure that he destroyed the clone. But, he never expected that just after a minute or so, the clone stopped moving. It was as if he had been frozen in place by something.

Henry did not waste the chance that he had been given. At that moment, he used the skill that he had been saving to wait for the best chance to attack. And, now was just the chance that he was waiting for.

Ignoring the furious gaze that he was receiving from the clone, Henry activated the skill, power surge. At the same time, he also activated mountain splinter, increasing the sharpness of the sword by two times.

It was also during this time that Henry also thought of something else. At the same time that he activated the two skills, he activated yet another skill, and that was, sword rain.

A large number of swords formed in the air. Each and every one of them emitted a very huge destructive power and sharpness that gave one a feeling of getting cut just from looking at them.

At this moment, Henry felt that the energy in his body was about to be depleted. But, he didn’t care about that. Instead, he launched the swords towards the clone.

Although it seemed that it was taking a long time, everything happened in just a matter of a few seconds.

The clone that was targeted was not given a chance of saying anything before the rain of swords drained it. Several holes were pierced through the clone, completely obliterating the lifeforce within it.

"I’ll remember this humiliation. In the future, we will meet again and I swear that..." as if by killing one of the clones, the other regained some freedom, he looked at Henry and stated with hatred clear in his eyes.

At this moment, the clone had realized that Henry had completely destroyed the plan that they were having, putting them at a slight disadvantage. But, that was not something that he cared about the most.

Just the fact that, he, a supreme being that was respected in the dark race, had actually failed to take care of a single human brat and had ended up losing a clone in the end. This kind of humiliation was not something that he was willing to take while lying down.

But, before the clone could finish the villain line that he was planning to say, the body simply dissipated into the air as if it never existed in the first place.

Henry didn’t care about the fact that the clone had become his enemy. At the end of the day, it was a fight for domination. So, they had to clash against each other until the winner was decided upon.

After this was completed, Henry did not forget about the necromancer that was watching everything from the side. He took a step forward, wanting to kill the necromancer with a single attack.

But, he had not moved for a good distance before he suddenly felt dizziness hitting him. At the same time, there was a splitting headache that appeared out of nowhere.

Although Henry was trying to hold on, he felt that his body was losing strength at a speed that he could not manage to handle.

Plop!

He fell onto the ground and felt his vision darkening. At that time, Henry could feel that he was going to pass out. But, he could not understand the reason why that was happening, and why it did not wait until he finished the remaining enemy.

He was not the only one as even the other duplicate of himself was experiencing the same thing. He was sharing his consciousness between the two bodies.

Knowing that if he passed out just like this, his life would be at stake, Henry retrieved his consciousness from one of the duplicates. Then, he gave the other party the command that he should protect the main body.

But, even before the command could be fully transmitted, the duplicate that Henry was trying to give the commands dissipated. Henry was stunned. He wanted to do something but, he felt the weight of his eyelids increasing.

Then without warning, Henry passed out, being left helpless in front of the necromancer. However, before he lost his consciousness completely, a screen appeared in front of him and a voice echoed in his mind. But, he could not read and neither could he comprehend the words that were said as he was completely out.

As for the necromancer, he had been observing the battlefield all this while. He knew that the clone would not last for the entire time but, it was going to disappear after about three hours. So, he had to be present to receive the commands on how he was supposed to progress.

However, as the battle progressed, he realized that the bad thing that he had not been wanting to happen happened. The clone that he had summoned was at a disadvantage after Henry merged with the elf.

Then, the battle went on until the clone froze in place. It was at that time that the necromancer realized something.

The clone was not supposed to use skills that consumed a lot of energy. But since Henry was too strong, he had no choice.

However by doing that, he had reduced the time that he was supposed to stay here to only a few minutes. And, despite the risk that he had taken, Henry still possessed another skill that was just like the one that the clone possessed.

Then, other than the fact that the clone was then overwhelmed by Henry, the time for the clone to stay here ended. And with that, his movements froze. Henry took advantage of this and dealt with the main clone.

With the death of the main clone and the end of the time that the clone was supposed to be in this world, the other clone simply dissipated.

The necromancer saw that Henry was looking at him and felt his scalp tingle. Without hesitation, he turned around to escape. He knew that if even the clone was dealt with, then he was nothing in front of Henry.

However, after he moved for some distance and was about to activate the skill that allowed him to turn into a dark cloud of smoke, he suddenly noticed something strange from the corner of his eyes.

Henry was wobbling as if he was going to fall at any time. All the powerful aura that was surrounding him disappeared.

Of course, the necromancer thought that this was just a trick that was being played by Henry. But in the end, he suddenly saw that Henry had fallen onto the ground.

’Could it be that he overused the skills and he cannot handle the overload?’ The necromancer thought to himself as he observed Henry that had passed out. After about a minute and there was no movement from Henry, the necromancer took a step forward and approached cautiously.

At the same time, he was ready to retreat at any time in case Henry suddenly woke up.

After he arrived close to enough, he realized that there were no movements from him at all. Thinking that he was so lucky, the necromancer looked at Henry and sneered, "Heh! You caused me to lose a lot by failing to complete the initial stage of our plan, and even forced me to use precious resources. But now, it seems that by killing you, I would be able to raise my head once more."

After saying that, with a broad smile on his ugly face that made him even more ugly, he raised the scythe that he was holding and swung it at Henry’s neck. He was not willing to repeat the mistake of the clone, and decided that he had to end Henry since he had the chance.
