‘This is no joke.’

The cooldown is longer than the duration, so it may not be as consistently effective as the Child of Darkness, but its short-term destructive power will be incomparably superior to that of the Child of Darkness.

Of course, this is a story when the skill ‘Alter Ego’ is such an ‘Alter Ego’.

It may be a skill with a completely different concept from what he is thinking about.

Soo Hyuk closed his skill window. He came out of the auction house then headed to the warp gate.

The reason he came to the Middle World was not just because of the auction house.

Soo Hyuk was thinking of going to the tower. He had two reasons to go there.

First, he was in order to read ‘What is illusion magic’ in Matab library.

And second, it was because of the essences. There are many special items in the tower. Void essence or dragon essence may also be present.

Soo Hyuk arrived at the warp gate and immediately went to the tower.

‘I will check it first.’

After arriving at Matab, he headed to the poison magic tower first.

Is it because the chimera crisis isn’t over yet? At the entrance to the Poison Tower, a lot of people were coming and going, regardless of users and NPCs.

Soo Hyuk passed them and quickly went up to the 4th floor where Pavian’s room was.

‘Where did they go?’

Soo Hyuk looked puzzled on the 4th floor. It was because there were no people in sight who would normally be guarding the entrance on the 4th floor.

He just moved forward and headed to Pavian’s room.

*Knock*

“Master it’s me.”

Soon, he arrived at the door and said after knocking.

“?”

But there was no reaction from inside.

*Knock*

“Master?”

He said once again after knocking.

‘Where have you been?’

There was no response as well. It seemed that Pavian was absent.

It was then.

“Soo Hyuk?”

Hearing the call, Soo Hyuk turned back.

“Ah, Vice Master.”

Soo Hyuk could see that the owner of that voice was the tower vice master Kale. 

“Are you here to see the tower master?”

Kale smiled and asked.

“Yes.”

“Now, the tower master has left for Assos mountains.” 

“Assos Mountains?”

“Yes, the tail of Black Moon, behind this Chimera incident, has been caught. He left to check it out himself.”

Kayle nodded and continued.

“Oh, when will he come back?”

“Sigh”

Kale sighed and thought for a moment before continuing.

“I do not know. He didn’t set a deadline, but because it’s an unexplored area…”

He discovered that they were hiding in Assos Mountains but hadn’t caught them yet.

Moreover, the Assos Mountains were unexplored areas. Danger lurks in there, and it would take quite a long time to find the black moon hiding there.

“I see.”

Soo Hyuk nodded at Kale’s words and thought.

‘Should I tell Kale then?’

He doesn’t have to tell Pavian. He can just ask Kale.

“Vice Maser.”

After thinking, he called Kale.

“I have something to tell you.”

“Let’s go to the room!”

Kale took the lead and headed to his room while interrupting Soo Hyuk’s words.

Soo Hyuk followed, and they soon reached the room.

“What do you want to say?”

After arriving in the room, Kale asked.

“Are there any dragon essences in the tower?”

Soo Hyuk went straight to the point at Kale’s words.

“A dragon’s essence?”

Kale asked again. Then he nodded his head and continued.

“The essence of a gold dragon is coming from the Empire soon, but…”

Soo Hyuk was pleased with his words.

“Do you need it?”

Kale looked at Soo Hyuk’s expression and asked.

If Soo Hyuk answered that he needed it, he was going to give him the Gold Dragon Essence. Pavian has already given an order not to spare support for Soo Hyuk.

In addition, during this Chimera incident, the poison tower has benefited greatly thanks to Soo Hyuk. Not only did the finances increase tremendously, but it also formed friendly relations with many places.

There was no reason not to support him. Even if they didn’t have it, they had to try to buy it.

“Yes.”

Soo Hyuk nodded.

“I’ll give it to you as soon as it arrives.”

Kale replied right away. And Soo Hyuk couldn’t help but be surprised.

‘So easy?’

What was the dragon’s essence? It was a legendary item.

It is a very valuable item not only for users but also for NPCs. But they gave it out so easily?

“By the way, may I ask what you are going to use it for?”

Soo Hyuk came to his senses at that question and replied.

“I’m going to use it to make a piece of equipment.”

Specifically, ‘Void’. But he couldn’t mention that.

“When will it arrive?”

He asked about the essence in order to change the topic and solve his curiosity.

“I think it will take about five days.”

“Then can I get it in 5 days?”

“Yes. Shall we prepare?”

“Yes! please.”

“All right.”

Kale nodded his head.

“I…”

And Soo Hyuk blurred his words and entered the second main point. He didn’t only need dragon essences; he also needed the void essence.

“?”

Kale was puzzled as Soo Hyuk continued.

“Do you know what the essence of the void is?” 

And he couldn’t help but be embarrassed by Kale’s subsequent reaction. It was because Kale’s soft expression, which was full of puzzlement, hardened in an instant.

‘What’s going on?’

Why is he doing that suddenly?

“Did you say the essence of the void?”

Kale said with a serious expression.

“Yes, do you know it?”

“Yes, but why do you ask about it?”

“Oh…”

Soo Hyuk thought, blurring the end of his words.

‘I don’t think it’s because of the equipment.

When he saw Kale’s reaction, it seemed that he shouldn’t tell the truth.

“I was looking at a book and found it, and I was curious what it was.”

“Ah, that was it.”

At Soo Hyuk’s answer, Kale sighed in relief.

“The essence of the void…”

After sighing in relief, Kale closed his mouth. Then he frowned and continued.

“It is the crystal life.”

“A crystal life?”

“Yeah, 120 years ago there was a madman named Restory.”

Kale began to explain as Soo Hyuk listened.

And when he listened to Kale’s explanation, he couldn’t help but panic. He could see why Kale called the Void Essence the ‘crystal of life’.

In order to create a void essence, the vitality of a living creature must be forcibly removed. It’s also not the only one.

‘6,000 orcs. 3,000 trolls,…?’

Although it was different for each tribe, the minimum number was a thousand. To make one, many lives must die.

“It is forbidden to create, and the ones that had been created are kept in the Great Hall

of the Holy Empire.”

Kale finished his explanation.

‘I see.”

Soo Hyuk nodded his head.

“See you in five days.”

Afterwards, Soo Hyuk told him that he will be here in 5 days and left. He thought as he walked down the stairs to the first floor and to the Matab Tower library.

‘It’s a matter of the void essence.’

The red dragon essence has been acquired. And he will soon receive the gold dragon essence. Meanwhile at Amiletta Treasury there are the silver and blue dragon essences.

Looking around, it seemed that dragon essences could be obtained somehow. But what about the void essence?

He had no way to acquire it.

Even if it wasn’t created, it is forbidden to create them anyway.

If he gets caught trying to create it, all nations including the Holy Empire, will become his enemies.

‘I can’t even rob the great hall.’

Although the essence of the void was stored in the Great Hall of the Holy Empire, it was heavily secured.

‘Sigh.’

Soo Hyuk came to the library while thinking about various things. Then he stopped thinking about it. It can’t be solved by worrying anyway.

“Here you go.”

Soo Hyuk left his proof and went inside. Then he checked the books as he had always done.

‘Not a single book.’

None of the books met the criteria. He returned to his desk with only 1 illusion magic book that sparkled in purple.

Then he immediately began to acquire information about illusion magic.

As with the skill ‘Child of Darkness’, the explanation for the skill ‘Alter Ego’ that did not exist before was added to ‘Illusion magic’.

‘Oh.’

After reading the explanation, he exclaimed inwardly.

‘It’s such a skill!’

The skill ‘Alter Ego’ was that kind of ‘Alter Ego’ that appeared when you opened the Illusion attribute.

‘Huh?’

But then, at the information that came into his sight, he tilted his head.

‘70%?’

Soo Hyuk frowned.

Naturally, the clone didn’t have the same stats as him. There was a penalty.

Beginner 30%, Intermediate 50%, Advanced 70%.

Of course, considering his wisdom, 70% could be said to be a staggering amount.

It was not because of the penalty that Soo Hyuk frowned.

There was another reason for his frown.

‘It can’t get the equipment effect…’

It was because of the equipment. The Alter Ego is not affected by equipment stats. Only pure stats could affect the clone.

‘I don’t get the effect, but if it’s 70%…’

[Wisdom increases significantly.]

Soo Hyuk finished reading the book, then opened the character window while looking at the message.

Level: 502

Experience: 14%

Health: 109400

Mana: 221200

Satiety: 67%

Power: 30

Agility: 19

Stamina: 1088 [544]

Wisdom: 11060 (+1700)

Bonus Stats: 20

Soo Hyuk looked at his wisdom and thought about his skill ‘Alter Ego’. 30% and it can’t get the equipment effect.

The skill ‘Alter Ego’ was currently at the beginner level. And the clone’s stats are determined based on his pure stats.

In other words, not 30% of the 11,000 wisdom, but 30% of the 9300.

It can unleash the power of 2790 Wisdom.

In addition, the fact that it is not affected by equipment that increases the stats.

Means that his magic and the Alter Ego’s magic would show a very big difference in destructive power.

‘Is the duration infinite?’

It is not something that can be maintained indefinitely like ‘child of darkness’.

Soo Hyuk sighed inwardly and got up. Now it was time to return to the 10th Demon World.

A smile gradually spread across Ramos’s lips as he read the letter silently.

After reading the entire letter, the corners of his mouth caught his ear.

“Khahahaha!”

Ramos put down the letter and laughed loudly. Then he got up from his seat and muttered, while his body was shaking with excitement.
