Chereads / The Architect [Solo Leveling] / Chapter 84 - Concrete Replica

Chapter 84 - Concrete Replica

The creature stood tall and straight like a guardian. From what he could see, it wasn't the strongest in that Abyss but it seemed to be the strongest one that Jin Woo currently had access to.

"What are those?" Gunhee asked surprisely calm unlike the many in the room.

Even as he spoke more and more of these shadowy soul creatures arose from the ground. Even high-level summoners had problems keeping two or three summons and he could do about fifty without problems.

"My summons, I call them Shadows" Jin Woo explained with a smile.

Silence reigned throughout the room as they all examined and compared themselves to the creatures he just summoned. They were S-ranks at the lowest but even so, these creatures were on par with them.

Fighting Jin Woo would mean fighting against god knows how many S-ranks he could summon. Everyone watched with such a similar thought in mind but Steve, on the other hand, continued to stare deeper into the abyss.

He didn't want to believe that Jin Woo was one of those Monarchs… Creating Judy and studying the Gate had made him come to the conclusion that there were many more like Baran out there.

Of course, he couldn't state their alignment hence why he had yet to attack Jin Woo but at the same time, looking at the young boy before him, he could also tell fully well that he had no idea what his power was.

This was the burden of knowledge, the Ignorant really had no idea how blissful it was.

"Impressive," Gunhee said after a while.

"Do they happen to have any other types of abilities?" Henry asked 

"That one can use magic" Jin Woo answered as he pointed towards a massive shadow.

Looking at it carefully, the creature looked like some form of Orc Shaman. No, it was once an Orc Shaman and a really powerful one at that…. The amount of soul energy and mana, Steve could feel from it put it on par with the S-ranks here but considering how necromancy works… it may have been of a lesser rank before.

"That's a very versatile power, you are basically a true one-man army…. Can you like transfer your consciousness from one of them to another to like to pass on messages or something?" Steve asked curiously.

He decided to let it all be, if Jin Woo truly was one of the Monarchs then he would beat him as well just as he had done to Baran. It would not be easy but nothing good ever comes easily.

"Okay thank you, sir, Mr Grant, what about you?" the young man called out after writing down some things… he seemed a little too calm for someone who just saw a twenty-year-old summon ten S-ranks.

"Sure," Steve said before gently stumping on the ground.

As soon as he did so, everyone saw a small portion of the earth rumpled up, seeing this, the group immediately gave way as they tried to avoid whatever it was that was coming out.

The rumpled earth grew larger and larger, it was as though it wasn't solid concrete anymore but some form of mud or something. From this 'mud' they all saw some beings rise. 

It was them.

"What?" 

Steve heard several screams of shock as a smile formed on his face, before him now stood about seven people. He had created an exact copy of everyone in the room.
