Swordsman Xin and Rogue Xin arrived at the entrance of the Tomb. Having located the imprint of Xin original made him make haste on travelling.
Forest was just traversed and he strode below its canopy. But there's no helping it as he was in the race of time. Making him travel in the shortest amount of time.
Sadly, Original didn't leave some teleportation rune to him and so it would save a lot of hassle to just teleport beside him.
Entering the hideout, he saw bodies were scattered all over the place. Paintings from ancient times were what orchestrated the place but he has no time for leisure to sight-seeing them. While in a hurry, he heard a banging sound was being made.
Threading carefully, Rogue Xin activated his passive skill [Sneak]. It would be activated once he would use the skill and its mastery can be further improved with more usage of the skill. Further moving inside without a trace of sound made him confident without being detected.
[Sneak]–a passive skill of Rogues to travel silently while undetectable. While crouching and stepping silently, the noise was also decreased as the skill was getting stronger. Can be used first to be undetected and the other skills can be used afterwards. Shadows can use the skill [Sneak] too like the other skills of the original.
Swordsman Xin just followed him in his sneak as he did not want to alert enemies
Just as they entered the spacious room, they saw lesser devils were scattered all over the place. The floor was dug and was destroyed. Caved-in with cracks here and there. Geography was in a mess and all was in chaos. Making him think that original was in a hurry to resort to such schemes.
Several steps from the room stood a door and rumbling sounds were heard. Making him take a peek and saw numerous cultists in the process. Sun Xin as well as another Xin was inside. Making a fuss just to stop the enemy brother's unsealing.
Roaring silhouettes were seen by the two battling each other in the process. Watching from the sidelines, he saw that Druid Xin was battling some kind of Demon general on the process. Something nostalgic when he remembered their past battles in the past.
Just as he observed, he carefully sneaked inside as he saw that the Demon Lord was unsealing the seal while he was left undisturbed. Making the Swordsman Xin and Rogue Xin to bite their lower lips in annoyance. Just as he was sneaking, he can feel the rumblings of the battles of the two gigantic beings.
While using the Rogue job class to sneak and was using [Sneak] and [Shadow cloak] in succession, he carefully throds into the shadows of the corner of th walls. Breathing carefully not to alert anyone on the process, he was able to take a peek at the ritual that was currently transpiring in front of him.
Eager to halt what was happening, he planned to stop them himself. Just as he was thinking of his plans, it would be a difficult task to be executed.
Just looking at the pulsating seal made him gulp dry his saliva. Just as he was looking at it, he can feel the race of time that he was left with.
'Seriously? What is the original's doing right now?' He asked himself.
He immediately saw that the seal was weakening with every pulse that was made. Ushering himself to hurry up and do what he needed to do. Upon seeing the altar, he slowly moved towards the one who was unsealing the one who was inside. He bolted with all his strength and dashed towards the one on the culprit.
Equipping his daggers, he used his skill [Flicker] while having the [Shadow cloak] still active on him. Wanting to use his skill [Reverse slash] on the person. Gritting his teeth, he prepared for the worst. He was left unguarded while he was on the seal and so, he grabbed the opportunity to attack him.
It was so disturbing to see that he was looking vulnerable in that manner. Disturbing yet tempting, maybe traps were all over but nothing could go wrong if he will avoid them. If he will kill him, it would make him become his body's host and usurp his soul. So making only enough damage for him to be distracted and stop the unsealing would suffice and was enough task for him to do. For such a Clone as him.
His servants were all below and were in a trance as they were bathing in his presence. Making them shout his name while doing his unsealing on the process.
Rogue Xin bolted towards him and prepared to [Reverse slash] him. It was then, he saw that while closing his eyes, he was grinning. It was then he immediately stared in his direction, making him jolt and back out halfway. Spikes emerged from his footing and assaulted Rogue Xin mid-air. It was not too late when he rotated and evaded them while mid-air.
He tapped the spikes with his hands and pushed himself away from him. Making him escape in hair's breathe and then rotated towards the platform.
Immediately, cultists saw him after his [Flicker] has disappeared. Making him revealed to the enemies while being covered with shadows.
"Tsk!" Rogue Xin could only smirk in disgust.
"Protect our Lord! Apprehend him!" Shouted one of the cultists.
While Swordsman Xin was assessing the situation, enemies approached in terribly fast pacing. Making Swordsman Xin to conjure his sword in a hurry.
[Conjure sword]
[Conjure armor]
Two skills were immediately made and his body was covered with armor. A red armor with metallic plates was what appeared. His armor glistened with a cold aura that was like smoking ice, chilled into negative degrees and was freshly brought out.
Sword was still on his sheath and he was gripping the handle of the sword, eyes closed while crouching. His enemies approached without reserve and they were flooding in all directions. Swordsman Xin inhaled deeply and then breathed out. Enemies were in all directions and their shouts vibrated inside his ears. Halting his breathing, he focused on everything he has and then opened his eyes.
[Draw slash]
[Draw slash]
It was an instant skill that happened in split second. Streaks of light were emitted and passed through the enemies' bodies. Making them touch their bodies in a halt while perceiving what just happened.
