Picking up Girls With My System

Chapter 472 Fight Against a Clone

Chapter 472 Fight Against a Clone

They stared at the upcoming figure from a distance, not believing their eyes. How was that possible? It was something with Arthur's exact appearance.

That should be impossible!

"What's that?" Myla said, retreating a few steps.

She knew damn well how powerful Arthur was. Could that clone have a similar strength? If so, then that was an enormous problem.

Arthur stared at his other self, noticing some strange things. First, the clothes that clone wore were different. He thought about his sister who had the Phoenix Bloodline as well.

Were those the clothes from that place? Also, his hair was that of a deep red. It wasn't black, but it was close to it. Like red-wine.

"Myla," Arthur said "Stay here for a while. Let me handle this."

Arthur left the cave, meeting up with his clone outside. He was expecting a fight to instantly broke out, but the clone actually spoke!

"You're Arthur Neel, right?"

Neel was the surname of his sister, Beatrice. Arthur still did not know what was happening! He was an ordinary person from Earth who ended up being a mighty dragon called Placidusax, yet he was someone with the Phoenix Bloodline. How could he be all of that at the same time?

"Correct. And who are you?" Arthur asked.

"A personification of the Phoenix. This is a trial, after all. If you win against me, you'll go to the next level. Are you prepared?"

"You bet!"

Arthur would not back down after going that far. A blood aura formed around his body, similar to a living being. It was one of the many powers he had from the Blood Monarch, as he was focusing more on that.

The clone dashed toward him, creating a fire sword to use it against Arthur! Arthur did the same, creating a sword of blood. The speed of both was astonishing, and Myla, who watched everything from afar, could not follow their movements.

That made her realize how weak she was when compared to Arthur, and now the clone. They were on a completely different realm of power.

But the clone, no matter how powerful it was, it still lacked when facing Arthur. Since the first sword clash, it was the clone who retreated, while Arthur remained unmoved like a tall mountain.

With more and more clashes, the difference in power became clear. The clone did not have the power to face against Arthur. And Arthur was only using the power of his body, and not his necromancy spells, blood spells, or even his unique dragon attacks.

The clone stopped using only body power and instead, tossed a massive fireball. It was so hot even Myla, who was far from the fight, felt the heat.

But Arthur? That was child's play against him. He could stay and it wouldn't damage him because of his Dragon Fire Body. But instead of staying still, he activated his devouring skill!

The mouth of a dragon appeared before him, eating the fire ball like it was a snack.

"Impossible," the clone said, "Only the legendary dragon could eat this…"

Legendary dragon? Arthur got even more confused. He knew the clone was referring to Placidusax, but at that point, Arthur was certain the Phoenix was an even more powerful creature.

Why was it so surprised? Or was Placidusax even greater? There were so many things Arthur did not have the answer for.

"Impossible? Not for me!"

Arthur vanished and appeared right in front of the clone. He did not attack using the blood sword, no, but clenched his fists, punching the clone's guts. His power was his strongest point, and considering his massive status, it was too much for the clone to handle.

It went flying, destroying all the trees along the way, creating a massive hole in the ground. The clone did not move anymore.

"Did he win?" Myla thought.

Then, their surrounding area changed. They were no longer inside a forest, but inside a type of coliseum.

"Great. More fights, like always," Arthur said as he moved closer to Myla.

He waited a few seconds, realizing nothing was coming their way.

"The trial is probably giving us some time to rest. Let's rest, then."

The clone wasn't that strong, but Arthur had his power locked, so if the level of the enemies increased while his own remained the same, then that would get troublesome.

"What was that talk between you two? I heard something about a legendary dragon or something."

"Correct. I am a legendary dragon."

"…"

"What's a dragon?" Myla asked.

"Imagine a massive lizard the size of your planet with wings, black scales, that devours planets to get stronger. That's me."

"…"

"Maybe you are that, but you increased your mighty, right? There's no way you are the size of a planet, and that you eat planets."

"How did you know?" Arthur said, giving her a thumbs up, "I actually made me smaller not to make you feel like an ant."

"…"

Myla's world shifted so much in just a few days she spent with Arthur. First she got to know Arthur was not an old man but a handsome youth. Then she got to know his power was just way beyond hers, and now he was actually a creature the size of planets?

Only a few number of people would have the mind to take that information and not freak out. Myla was freaking out, but because she was in a trial she had to overcome, she tried her best to keep it cool.

They remained inside that coliseum, resting for a while, that until a statue came flying from the sky! The impact created a massive hole in the ground.

Arthur stared at the statue, and he could already tell that statue alone was more powerful than the clone he fought moments ago.

But then, more and more statues came from the sky, stopping in the coliseum. The total was around 8, and all of them had a different type of weapons.

They were made of stone, and were massive, around 5 meters of height. Their eyes were red like fiery flames, and the moment they saw Arthur and Myla, they walked toward them, making the ground tremble with each step.
