Chapter 464 - 464: Trouble in Estel part 17 (2/2)

One of the job of the court magician is to fortify and maintain the Fortress Defense Magic of the castle. Charlotte, having learn from the very best user of this technique (Ash of course), would surely be responsible for upgrading and maintaining the Fortress Defense Magic of the castle, as countless wave of water come pouring down at us

”They're retreating!” [Anjin]

”Which mean something big is coming” [Khamishah]

”Get ready everyone” [Filvisar]

”Right!” [Seo Ah]

Seo Ah whose been riding Birdie all this while isn't affected nearly as much as us on the ground, but she suddenly shout

”Goddess! Protect us!” [Seo Ah]

”Birdie, together with me!” [Jacks]

~Screech~

Sensing that a wave of strong acid on our way, Birdie and I gather around a strong burst of wind mana, and together

”Wind mana zone: Redirection” [Jacks]

I can feel the very weight of water being push outside by our collective effort. Of course, the fake doppelgangers that were hiding behind the barrier of the Fortress Defense Magic were surprised by the sudden gushing of acidic wave that comes and greet them. I just hope that

”First Zerolith, and now both you and Birdie. I feel like I should patent my mana zone technique” [Kucin]

”Now now. Knowledge are meant to be shared” [Filvisar]

”True” [Seo Ah]

”I just hope that the normal people weren't getting wash away by the acid just now” [Jacks]

”Speaking of them, did anyone notice something strange” [Khamishah]

”I do. All I can see and smell all this while are nothing but fake doppelgangers. I can't even find anyone that wasn't a fake doppelganger. Not even a person” [Anjin]

”That's rather worrying” [Khamishah]

”Not only that. There aren't copies of any of the royalties at all” [Filvisar]

”Now that you mentioned it...” [Seo Ah]

So what I observed was indeed correct, and is further verified by Mr Filvisar and Anjin. All I saw right now are the countless number of fake doppelgangers, ranging from maids and butlers to the stronger and deadlier knights. Of course, they gave us all trouble after trouble of moving forward, but by this point, I would have expected to see a copy or two from the royalty. In fact, not seeing a copy of them makes me anxious. I can't help but to get worried about King Estel, Fourth Queen and Fourth Prince Zaidi. They're the one that I hope nothing bad will happen to them

”Mirage mana: Hand of Giant” [Khamishah]

Using her spell couple with her proficiency of neutral mana, she strengthen her right arm and with it, project a powerful blow to this steel door and rip open the door. The Final barricade that is on our way, and here

”Just... What is that thing!?” [Anjin]

”People... Somehow... I can feel someone inside!” [Seo Ah]

”Coming from one of the goddess favourite daughter, that's indeed worrying” [Filvisar]

A flower of sort, that is made out of flesh and organ. Fake doppelgangers keep coming out from there. It wouldn't be a stretch to call it a Doppelganger flowe
