The three Elders left as swiftly as they arrived.
Joseph stared at his avatar, and likewise. His avatar also stared at him.
"Are you really me?"
The avatar asked.
What? My avatar is asking if he is me? What does he mean by that? Joseph knitted his eyebrows, but he suppressed his curiosity as he said.
"Yes, you are me. You are my avatar to be exact."
The avatar revealed a meaningful smile.
"Heh, so I am you, and you are me... But I refuse to accept such arrangements. I refuse to be you! I refuse to be someone as weak as you!" The avatar suddenly roared in anger and rushed at Joseph's direction.
What the fuck?!
Joseph inwardly cursed, but his trained reflexes reacted and he managed to withdraw his Rapier of Grandeur and Beauty in time.
"Parry!"
Bang!
A fierce explosion rang out.
The avatar's attack didn't even manage to reach Joseph for it was stopped by an invisible wall.
