Volume 2 Chapter 22 Clone Versus Boss Level Monster Part 10
Clone 4 and Clone 5 was now running in the forest towards to the location of the three other Clone whose in the middle of a fight due to having the skill sprinting both Clone 4 and Clone 5 did not take to long before they reach where Clone 1, Clone 2, and Clone 3. Upon arriving both Clone 4 and Clone 5 saw that Clone 1 inside a wind dome being besiege by a swarm of Slime firing different projectiles at Clone 1's wind dome. Then Clone 2 was moving around while controlling a fire tornado which Clone 4 and Clone 5 know they can't use this kind of spell due to the large amount of mana to make this kind of spell but both of them knew a loophole to bypass this kind of restriction you just need 2 or more people with deep understanding of each others to coordinate with each other to use combination magic but if some people want to do this and not having a deep understanding of each the spell will not work and there is a chance for the spell to blow up killing the spell caster.
But the two of them was not to shock to see this due to being a clone and having a connection to each others they can do this kind of things and have a perfect coordination with each others. But what shock them was the color of the fire tornado was half orange they both knew that casting a complete orange colored fireball was achievable with their mana and their own mana regeneration they can all can cast that spell but if they want to make a fire tornado with two people they need to make the fireball stay in the middle of the tornado which is hard due to it moving even if the caster of the wind tornado try to slow it down so the caster of the fireball needed to control the fireball to stay in the middle of the wind tornado while it move which need concentration and mana to control the fireball and if the caster of the fireball failed to concentrate the wind tornado will be cancel out wasting all of their effort.
After the shock of seeing a half colored orange fire tornado they stop paying attention to Clone 2 and see Clone 3 being encircle by the slime around her but every time a slime try to get close or lunch a projectile to her a magic spell will be fired to block every time some of the slime who pounce at Clone 3 will get there core pierce kill the slime.
Both Clone 4 and Clone 5 got bored at watching Clone 2 and Clone 3 so they start to watch Clone 1 who was now out of her wind dome due to some slime leaving and attacking Clone 2 or Clone 3. They saw Clone 1 pull out her spear in her back and start running toward the horde of slimes. Clone 4 noticed that Clone 1 did not enhance her spear with magic so every time it hit a slime the spear was slowly being corroded by the acid inside the body of the slimes. Clone 4 and start to converse with Clone 5 about the fight.
Clone 4: Did you notice that she did not enhance her spear with magic?
Hearing Clone 4 talk Clone 5 look at her and nods.
Clone 5: Their is a crack in her spear
Clone 4 was stun to hear Clone 5 voice which has a cold tone on it but her attention was pulled when she heard her that there is a crack in Clone 1 spear which she did not notice so after hearing that there is a crack in Clone1 spear Clone 4 then put her focus on the spear while Clone 1 was fighting with it along the way Clone 4 notice that the spear will be broken much faster with Clone 5 telling her that their is a crack on the spear even if she still did not find where the crack is she still trust Clone 5 and with the corrosion the crack will only grow bigger and bigger until the spear can't handle the damage and it will break when the crack has a width of a finger then Clone 4 notice where it was. The crack was in the near the middle of the spear and if she enhance it with magic the spear could at least take more hit from a much powerful enemies than their current level which is not high. So they both continued to watch as how Clone 1 fight when her weapon break she was clearly stock to move the slime take advantage of that and attack her until Clone 1 use magic and Clone 1 was being out class by the earth slime.
Clone 4: Should we help her?
Clone 5: Not yet
After hearing the short reply of Clone 5, Clone 4 was not shock to hear her answer. Clone 1 need experience with close combat while using magic and Clone1 still use a spear or a spike which is made of magic that Alice rarely use so she don't have a memory how to use the spear much Alice only just over power the enemies while using a spear which is one of the hardest to learn how to use. Then they saw Clone 1 make a wind spear they thought that she will use is as a replacement to her broken spear but Clone 1 did something out of their expectation which she throw it toward the earth skill which the earth slime respond on making a earth ball the two magic attack was in a dead lock so they saw the earth slime take advantage of the opportunity to run away which Clone 1 notice the earth slime attempting to run away they heard her shout at the earth slime which stop for a few second and continued to run.
Then they saw her make a Katana made of Blood Magic then she run toward the earth slime then she slash at the body of the earth slime but the katana only cut a shallow part of the earth then they saw the earth slime start to cast earth magic then in the next second she was send flying with a large earth spike to the gut which result in a critical hit but it was not to fatal enough to kill Clone 1.
