Chapter 401 Side Story Chapter 21 – Doppelganger (7)
Doppelganger (7)
“Hihihi”
I was so happy that I smiled involuntarily.
Crumble.
A small and short sound
A small noise generated by the preparatory action of moving the lower body’s center of gravity and swinging the upper body using it as the axis of rotation.
The sound of rubbing small pieces of soil and stones between the stone floor and heavy boots.
The weak human friend would be able to hear this noise, but would not be able to respond.
But I am different.
Even with such a garbage-like body, I was able to show better movements.
“Ike.”
As soon as I bent my knees, the Knight’s sword passed over my head with a stinging sound.
Soon after
Bang!
The Knight struck the stone wall.
Hey, hitting a stone wall with a hammer wouldn’t make that kind of noise.
I doubt that that friend is human.
“Hihihi.”
A few steps back
As soon as he stepped back, debris poured over the spot.
The Knight glared at me and licked his mouth.
Well, is it quiz time?
Looking at that mouth shape… ‘Were you a doppelganger?’ he would have asked such questions.
“Yeah, I’m a doppelganger.”
The Knight cleared his throat and lowered his voice.
It was in vain.
“Isn’t it fun? It’ll make you feel a little out of breath, but don’t worry too much. It’s not toxic. It’s just a paralytic that makes it hard to talk.”
So why do you take what others give you and eat it straight away?
No matter how unvigilant you were when I was distributing snacks at every meal every day, you should have been vigilant on the last day.
Isn’t it?
“Arhan!”
A voice was heard calling the Knight’s name from beyond the wall.
He must have heard the Knight’s sword hitting the wall.
Apparently, the Knights are at the forefront of the rescue team.
“What’s going on! Are you okay?!”
It was an urgent call.
As if the Knight wanted to answer, he worked hard to clear his throat, but in the end, he couldn’t make a sound.
I told you not to.
It wasn’t just the Knight.
The Paladin and Wizard naively ate the plums I gave them.
In the case of two people using spells, they would be far more lethal than a Knight.
“Arhan!”
“Paladin, are you inside?!”
Voices kept coming through the wall, but no one answered.
A murmur began, and the murmur soon became chaos.
I burst into a laugh.
I had no choice but to.
Things were going as our Adventurer friend had planned.
What should I do for this wonderful friend?
Would you like to visit your hometown?
[Kill me… ]
“Hihihihi”
Cute
You want me to kill you?
Did you not know that it has been a few days since you died?
Contrary to the wishes of this Adventurer friend, I will not let his self-consciousness disappear.
Why would you throw away such a useful guy?
Manipulating the memory to fit the situation and bringing it to the fore will give him a head start on trying to somehow survive.
For my sake.
[…just kill me]
Oh man, the memory of your hometown friend seems to cause a bit of a shock.
Don’t worry about it.
Those memories will soon be forgotten.
Would you rather be proud of yourself for tricking the mercenary?
[Devil…….]
Aww, you are a cute friend!
How can you be so cute!
Smart and stupid friend!
While the Adventurer’s friends entertained me, the Knight and the Paladin seemed to have made up their minds.
They grabbed their weapons and started running towards me.
“Answer me! Arhan! Are you okay?!”
A cry for an answer continued from beyond the wall.
Our talkative Knight couldn’t answer anything.
He was just approaching me with an unspoken shout.
* * *
There was a feeling of as if I had a foreign body in my neck.
It felt as if I had swallowed a wet cotton ball that got stuck in my throat.
“Hihihi.”
Then I heard laughter next to me.
It was such a sinister laugh.
The Knight reflexively swung his sword.
The Adventurer evaded the sword as if he had expected it and increased his distance.
There was a clear difference from the movements the Adventurer had shown during that time.
Only then did the Knight know the answer.
The Adventurer was the doppelganger.
He was taken aback by the lack of voice he had, but fortunately, he was not poisoned.
The Knight and the party exchanged opinions silently with their eyes.
It was already what they expected.
When the rescue team arrives, the doppelganger has no way to survive.
At the very last minute, the doppelganger was expected to show up, and it turned out exactly as expected.
So, as originally planned, all they had to do was fight the doppelganger and hold on until the rescue team arrived.
There seemed to be no problem except that it was the Adventurer who first came up with this plan.
The Knight, Paladin, and Wizard swallowed their anxiety and raised their weapons towards the doppelganger.
So the battle began.
The battle was tense.
Although the doppelganger’s identity was revealed, he did not reveal his demonic form.
He maintained the appearance of an Adventurer.
Of course, he was showing a different level of movement than the Adventurer, but he could not overcome the limitations of the Adventurer’s body.
The Knight and Paladin maintained the line, and the Wizard checked the movement of the doppelganger from behind.
The three’s stance was solid, and it looked like they could hold out long enough until the rescue team arrived.
The problem was rather with the rescue team.
“Damn it, what are you doing!”
“Get away. Now we’ll take the lead and break through.”
The rescue team behind the wall was confused.
The battle continued in the cavity, and the sound of knives resounded.
There was no response to the question about the group’s well-being.
The rescue team was divided into Knight, Templar, Wizard, and Mercenary guilds.
Each faction was wary of each other and began to be hostile to each other.
“Stand back. I warn you.”
“That’s a load of nonsense. Hey guys, take out your knife.”
The Knight was frustrated.
Now is not the time for them to fight over there.
They must not bleed in vain.
If only he could say something.
I am fine, there’s a demon called a doppelganger here and we were all fighting it together.
Not being able to deliver that sentence, the confusion beyond the wall was aggravating.
Kuang-kuang!
The doppelganger was diligently swinging the Adventurer’s short dagger, blocking the weapons of the Knight and Paladin.
Now, the Knight and Paladin, who were leading the battle calmly and dragging time, started to get impatient on the contrary.
That was then.
The doppelganger suddenly screamed.
“Aaakkk!”
What came out of the doppelganger’s mouth was the voice of a mercenary.
The doppelganger cried out in a loud voice.
“It’s a betrayal! These damn bastards! They’re trying to bury us in the dungeon and take possession of the treasure!”
It was the perfect voice of the Mercenary.
His tone and voice, his intonation, and even the vocal range were very similar to those of the Mercenary.
The Mercenary’s voice, mimicked by the doppelganger, echoed through the walls.
The commotion heard from beyond the wall grew explosively.
‘Is this what the doppelganger was aiming for?’
The Knight was later aware of what the doppelganger was aiming for.
Because of this, the party was given paralytic drugs, and it took time until the rescue team arrived.
“It’s a treasure! Here’s the treasure!”
This time it was the voice of the Adventurer.
The two shouts the doppelganger masqueraded were so fatal.
“Look, it’s because of that! They cheated on us! Son of a bitch, kill!”
From beyond the wall.
The sound of knives began to be heard.
Followed by a scream.
“Argh!”
“What are these idiots doing!”
The dungeon expedition consisted of several groups.
And the group that first entered was made up of people representing the group.
All groups were competitive with each other.
They cooperated for a while to clear the road, but in the end they had to fight for the one and only treasure.
It’s a fact that everyone in the group had forgotten about because of the common enemy called the doppelganger.
They were not only a rescue team to rescue the party, but they were also the latter sent by each faction to claim the treasure first.
“Ahh!”
“Are you crazy!”
“Stop! Stop!”
“You betrayed me first! Die!”
Screaming.
Death.
“Argh! Arhan!”
The voices of their colleagues calling for themselves, who could not answer until the end.
‘No… No!’
They wanted to break down that wall and run to their colleagues right away.
I had to stop the meaningless battle and explain all of this.
However.
“Hehehe, where are you going, we were playing together.”
The cursed devil did not give way.
As if ridiculing the Knight, he was constantly keeping a close watch.
The Knight’s sword began to shine.
The sword that illuminates the dark cavity was swung towards the demon.
Quazzik!
The doppelganger hurriedly abandoned the Adventurer’s appearance and pulled out the devil’s arm, but could not stop the Knight’s sword.
The doppelganger, half human and half demon, looked up at his arm and said.
“I still don’t have enough strength. Hihi.”
The devil was muttering, but he didn’t seem to feel any sense of urgency as he looked at his squashed arms.
As the battle continued, the wall exploded with a huge explosion.
Buried in the roar, the screams and the sound of knives from beyond the walls all disappeared.
A strong heat emanated from the collapsed wall.
A Wizard with a long wand.
Burning corpses, visible behind the Wizard walking out.
“No.”
After checking the faces of the corpses, the Knight unwittingly let go of the sword from his grasp.
It was an unrealistic sight.
He finally met his colleagues again, and what he finally encountered was the faces of his colleagues who had become corpses.
All of this felt like a play, not an actual situation.
The wall that broke with the magic of overwhelming power, the one who broke through and appeared was the Wizard’s master who led the Wizards.
The Lord of the Magic Tower had the appearance of a young woman in her twenties who did not match with an elderly man of over 100 years old.
After he sent in his disciple in his own image, he himself came in as the disciple and belonged to the latter group.
He had the same face as the disciple, but there was a completely different atmosphere on the face that showed no emotion.
“Master! That’s a doppelganger!”
The Wizard behind the Paladin shouted to the master.
The Master didn’t even respond to the disciple’s cry.
He just prepared his magic.
A huge magical energy moved and concentrated on the tip of the staff he was holding.
“It’s a precious treasure. Please survive and become my test subject, demon.”
The master said to the doppelganger.
The doppelganger, who had been quietly listening to those words, muttered to himself.
“Yes, that was the perfect plan, friend.”
The doppelganger flicked his fingers as he said so.
At the same time, the floor of the dungeon began to glow.
The Knight felt dazed.
‘… stun trap. The first thing we saw when we were locked up here…… .’
The last card prepared by the Adventurer and the doppelganger.
It was a magic trap.
