Clone
(Ravenger)
“...It seems I cannot escape. I will kill you and kidnap the prince!” (Assaulter)
“Before I kill you, who are you and why are you after the Prince?” (Ravenger)
“...” (Assaulter)
The assaulter stayed still.
“...Hahaha! Fine. I shall grant you my name before your death.” (Assaulter)
The assaulter removed her hood, revealing her white hair.
“I am Clone! One of the 48 Witches!” (Clone)
...What!?
After hearing my past, the one who caused my extinction appeared right in front of my face!?
“...I am Ravenger. The last of the Croklis. I will definitely kill you!” (Ravenger)
Clone’s eyes widen when she heard my reply.
“C-Croklis!? Your kind still exist. I see, I should report this to the others, but if I kill you, I can get my promotion. Alright, die for my promotion!” (Clone)
...I don’t know how strong one of the Witches can be, but I should use all that I have.
“Limit Break - Dominion.” (Ravenger)
Dominion has been activated
Clone unsheathed her daggers dashed towards me.
With one swipe, I shredded Clone.
“Hahaha! I’ve got you now!” (Clone)
Suddenly, I was pierced in the back.
Shit, the one I destroyed must’ve been an illusion.
...Wait. Its not an illusion.
“...A clone!” (Ravenger)
I twisted my body and swiped at the clone behind me.
As I destroyed the clone, a haunting laughter echoed within the mist.
“Hahaha! Find me if you can!” (Clone)
A large number of clones surrounded me.
“Die! Infinity Strike!” (Clone)
“Emotional Control - Anxiety.” (Ravenger)
Emotional Control - Anxiety has been activated
I quickly activated my only defensive ability.
I don’t know how much I can take, but I have to counterattack soon.
I resisted a flurry of jabs, stabs, and slashes as Clone hacked away on me.

Victory and defeat lies on this move.
...Its now or never.
Twister has been activated
I quickly spun around, slashing away at any clones unfortunate enough to fall into my path.
Before long, I destroyed most of the clones.
“Hahaha! You really think I will be defeated that easily?
Clone appeared in front of me as I tried to catch my breath.
“You’re much weaker than the previous generation Croklis. I guess I can have a bit more fun with you!” (Clone)
“...” (Ravenger)
I don’t have a strategy against this guy.
I need to think.
Think.
...Think
...THINK.
...sniff.
I instinctively covered my snout.
...It really stinks in here.
More of Clone surrounded me again.
“...Scent.” (Ravenger)
A new skill has been learnt
ScentPassiveYou have gained the ability to improve your power of smell. You sense of smell will give you a terrain advantage of up to 150%. Can be blocked by a strong smell.
“Hahaha! No matter how many of me you defeat, you will never find me!” (Clone)
“...You stink.” (Ravenger)
“W-What!? How dare you insult me! Infinity Strike!” (Clone)
My Emotional Control is still up.
I used Twister to clear up the clones and moved to another corner.
...sniff.
...There is a strong stink…
...above me.
“...Skyward Slash.” (Ravenger)
I leaped upwards as more clones appeared beneath.
My eyes stared directly at Clone who was hanging on her dagger, which was dug into the wall.
“...Hello.” (Ravenger)
“W-What!?” (Clone)
“Die.” (Ravenger)
“N-Never! Substitution!” (Clone)
As I slashed at the Clone, but she managed to escape before I could strike her down.
“Don’t escape!” (Ravenger)
I slammed down onto the group of Clones, destroying most of them.
“Gah!” (Clone)
The force of my slam pushed Clone against the wall, stunning her.

I charged towards Clone with killing intent.
With one swing, I pierce Clone through the stomach, my claws digging into the wall behind her.
Clone spat out blood at my face.
“Hehehe, I’ve already informed of the other witches of you... We will do everything in our power to make you suffer...” (Clone)
“...Tell them to come at with with full force.” (Ravenger)
“...Haha… You will definitely take those words back.” (Clone)
“...” (Ravenger)
With nothing else to say, I pulled my claws out of her body.
(Ravenger)
As I removed my claws from Clone’s body, she and all her clones disappeared into mist.
Walking out of the treasury, I rejoined with Walter who was sitting on the floor.
“I don’t think royalty should be sitting on the floor.” (Ravenger)
“Ravenger! Are you alright?” (Walter)
“...I need to talk with the King again.” (Ravenger)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Ravenger)
“...So the Witches have returned.” (King)
As Walter and I returned to the throne room, Walter informed his father the events that happened within thirty minutes.
I’m more surprised at how quickly I defeated Clone…
“...So the Witches are back.” (King)
“Yeah.” (Ravenger)
“...As their natural predator, how would you deal with this situation?” (King)
“I’ll hunt them. Simple.” (Ravenger)
The King stayed silent for a moment.
“...They are not as simple as you think. In the first war, they were defeated by your tribe. Now you are the only one left.”
“...I’ll just get stronger.” (Ravenger)
“It would not be enough.” (King)
...This old man is pissing me off.
“...It’ll be enough.” (Ravenger)
“...” (King)
“There’s only 48 of them right? I’ve killed one of them. Only 47 more to go.” (Ravenger)
The King let out a sigh.
“You really are like the legends... Alright. Whenever the war begins, as the King of Haven, I will give you my assistance.” (King)
“...I appreciate it.” (Ravenger)
I turned around and left the throne room.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Ravenger leaves the throne room, a shadowy figure watches as the reptile leaves.
“...Its time.” (???)
The figure leaped out of a hole it created and chanted a spell.
“...Explosion.” (???)
The castle exploded into flames, debris flying everywhere.
That day, this incident was known as “The Castle Ablaze”.

From the Final World
I have lived a long, long time. Longer than the universe knows; longer than any star has seen or traveling light records. My memories; that is all that is left that knows that length, and that which was seen within it. Then again, that is all that ever did. When I am gone, it will be forgotten, a truth and a history lost forever no matter who or what tries to find it. I think that is why I write this now. A record, or a lament, of the most significant being of all time. It is a prideful exaltation of endless triumph, or the dread condemnation of infinite evil. I don’t know which; I shall leave it for others to judge. I could explain further, of course. I could list the sins that have been committed, the deeds that have been done. Yet for now, I believe this is enough. Her story will speak for itself. About the good, and evil, in the heart of a single girl burdened with more than her fair share. And how she reacted to it. So, I will tell her story. Of gods and devils, mortals and monsters, of legends long forgotten and civilizations long turned to dust. And in the end, I hope she knows herself, whether it is salvation, or destruction, she should receive.

... And My Skillet
A long time ago, a child was born under the great blue sky. Many a Dwarf grumbled at the auspicious event, tugging furtively at their beards at this ill omen. A year later as the expedition had begun digging into the virgin hills of their new home, the grumbling of the doughty mountain people rose to a disbelieving furor when the yearling passed over the ritual offerings that would determine his lot in life. Instead, the as of yet unnamed child crawled over to a skillet fresh out of the fire and begun picking at the rock bread, unconcerned with the heat. Shouts turned into laughter, frowns lifted into craggy smiles. Upon placing a handful of the bread into his mouth, the infant’s face grew so grim and stony not even the eldest of the present Dwarves could match him. There was a durable ore within this babe, of that the Lore Keeper was sure. Yumly Ironhand was thus named, the beginning of his great tale immortalized on the rune walls of his clan’s history. “It’s pronounced Yoom Lee and no, rock bread isn’t a misnomer.”
