"Grandpa help!" Shouted the little girl that was held by the crab monster.
"An Awakening! Please help my granddaughter!" He shouted.
He could see with his eyes what were the classes that the person's clones were. He was shocked at what transpired. Now he knew that they have a chance to fight and save his daughter.
Monk!
Elementalist!
Swordsman!
Illusionist!
Lifestealer!
Berserker!
"Oh my, this classes could become S class in the future! Please I beg you! Save my granddaughter!" He wailed in great despair.
The clones were still Awakening and then their expression changed to someone else's. Still, their levels were still at Level 1 so it will be a tough fight. The clones immediately changed what they wear into their class based one.
"Oh? What are you staring at? You know I have a hostage right?" The crab monster shouted.
"Hmm?" The swordsman slashed his clippers and then let go of the girl.
The Monk immediately dashed and kicked him on the chest.
Uhugh!!!
The crab monster puked blood and his chest that was as hard as iron cracked. He slammed on the dirt several times until he was grabbed on the back by another monster. An Octopus humanoid that has a octopus head and body of a buff human.
"Hmm, it seems you have a little bit of a trouble," he said to him as he patted his shoulder.
"Help us damn it! Where did you go?" The crab monster shouted in annoyance. This teammate of his was having leisure while they were fighting for their lives.
"Hmm, don't worry, I will finish them all in a jiffy." He said proudly.
Boom!
The Elementalist fired flame blast that made the octopus to cover his face with his arms.
"Damn, let me finish talking first!" He shouted in anger.
"Shush, you talk too much, I can cook you myself before you can finish talking," Elementalist Xin said to him while having ice spikes made.
"Okay, fair enough!" He shouted.
Xin fired ice spikes to him and then struck his chest with earth spikes. Making him thrown to the air.
The beetle humanoid immediately helped and the Berserker and Lifestealer acted. They attacked and smashed the enemy with their two handed swords.
Meanwhile....
Xin went to find his other clone and saw that he was bloody. Though he seemed fine. He has glowing hands that healed the wounds he had.
"You're a Healer?" Xin asked.
"Yes I guess. Let me heal Xian first."
"Sure!"
The two went to Xian and his mother and healed the two. Xian broke her arms but Xin healed her. His mother has a small cut on her neck but she was healed.
Xin then saw that the battle has commenced. He saw that his clones all have their own powers.
"What? They have their own powers?" Xin was dumbstruck.
He finally saw the System having a notification.
[Cloning skill has awakened for the second time]
[A new skill was granted]
[Skill Clone Mimicry was granted]
[You can temporarily copy the clone's class for a designated time.]
Upon his surprise, he did not thought that he could still be granted with a skill. Though more skills would be honestly be better for him. Accessing his clone skills would be very very helpful.
The fight was still brewing and the girl was saved. Making the old man to thank him.
Swordsman Xin attacked with his slashes that made the limbs of the crab to get dismembered. Though even with his attacks, the crab humanoid regenerated his limbs. Soon after, the Monk decided to use his skill Shock pulse. A strong shock pulse that was emitted from the attacks.
He opened his palms and then dashed towards him. He smashed him with his palm several times until it became faster and faster. Dealing internal shock inside his body.
Ughug!
The crab vomited blood the second time. Making him kneel on his knees. The swordsman immediately dashed and slashed it's head off. Making it slam it's headless body on the ground.
The octopus humanoid attacked and punched the Illusionist Xin and it disappeared like a smoke. The Illusionist Xin then made him get hallucinations and the Elementalist fired him with fire pillar. Scorching him to death and embers was all that was left.
The beetle attacked the two and they smashed their weapons on him. Battering his hard shell and sparks were made. The Berserker used his berserk mode and then the Lifestealer used blood control. Controlling the enemy's blood to stop his attacks and then the Berserker slashed and slashed him on his body.
The enemy used his skill Toughening and then Berserker Xin used Rage skill that cleaved his armor like a butter.
They soon finished with their own enemies and Xin finally rested. The old man thanked him himself and then bowed slightly.
"I thanked you for saving my granddaughter. I am indebted to you. By the way, are that all your clones?" He asked.
"Yes?" Xin replied.
"But they have their own class!" He was in utter disbelief.
"Yes? Why? I don't know why myself!" Xin was also confused.
"Ah I see, you are strong and defeated the Villains. I commend you!"
"Nah, it was pure luck and based on a quantity fight. I fought the enemies 2 vs. 1 and so it was on my advantage. Surely, if I fought them 1 vs. 1 then I will surely lose,"
"Hmm, well it doesn't matter. But please, I invite you to the Awakening Halls to awaken your other clones. That would be reassessing your combat potential and Hero rank." He said to him.
"Ah yes, I will in another time. For now, I will assist the room transfer of my mother." Xin said to him.
"Ah yes, she has mana disease?" he asked with curiosity.
"Yes," Xin replied.
"I can help you cure your mother. As a thank you gift for my benefactor!" He exclaimed.
Xin was surprised. But still, he wanted to repay him in any way he can.
"Yes, just help me get this loan from you. I will still repay it," Xin smiled and was happy. His mother would awaken at last.
"Yes, I will wait for you there. By the way, I am Niko Asterisk, the Founder of Hero association." He said with eyes closed and offered a handshake.
"What!?" Xin nearly stammered and gulped his saliva.
