The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 794: Doppelganger King

Cain glanced at the small boy, who was looking at him with terror, but he felt no sympathy. The Doppelganger King was one of the last remnants of The Organization, and there was only one fate for those individuals.

”If you donʼt resist and give access to all your knowledge, I will make it painless. Otherwise, I will go through your soul and find what I need, making it excruciatingly painful.”

The Doppelganger King had lived for thousands of years, and thanks to his position as one of the Dark Kings of The Organization, even Sector Dukes did not dare to utter his name lightly. He had grown more than accustomed to the respect and fear in the eyes of anyone who gazed at him upon learning his true identity.

Yet now, the only things he saw in the eyes of the Scarlet King were coldness and boredom, as if even speaking to him was loathsome.

Although the man knew the tales of the Scarlet King and had seen records of his overwhelming power, the rage in his heart overcame his rational mind, and his Essence Wave began to rise as his form changed. The body of the young boy began to fade, and his figure changed over and over again, from a young woman to an old man, even becoming all sorts of domestic animals.

Changing forms was not a complicated task, and there were many spells capable of such power. However, they all left flaws, and those with high enough power could see them. Yet, every time the Doppelganger King changed, every cell of his new body carried on the process, and it reached the point that even Cain had to admit the ability was nothing short of flawless.

In the end, the Doppelganger King adopted his true, horrible form. He resembled a burned corpse with rotten skin that seemed to fall off at any second. Given this appearance, it was no wonder he worked so hard to become others.

”¡BOOM!”

A blast of Essence Wave emerged from the Dark King as he stared at Cain, but the young man only shook his head.

”The Shadow King was the spymaster of The Organization, but she always came second to you regarding disguises and infiltration tactics. However, when it comes to battle power and fighting skill, you came last of all the Dark King, even beneath the Mirage King.”

The Doppelganger King only showed coldness and killing intent as he heard the Scarlet Kingʼs disparagement, and he seemed determined to fight.

”Ahh, you are so weak that you cannot even tell my true body from a space-time afterimage.”

This time, Cainʼs voice did not come from the figure in the sky but from behind the Doppelganger King, making the terror in the eyes of this one explode. Before the Dark King could even make a move, a hand grabbed the back of his head and blasted him into the ground.

”BOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM!”

Cain slammed the Doppelganger Kingʼs head into the ground with so much strength that it generated a kinetic explosion, leveling the area around them and pulverizing the mountain range near them.

The Doppelganger Kingʼs brain trembled inside his skull as cracks formed around this one. The Scarlet Kingʼs hand was too strong and heavy, and that was far from the worst part.

A current of Essence Wave charged with the power of space-time, and a simply immense Ego Wave began to charge into his body and soul sea. The power of the Scarlet King paralyzed the energy inside the Doppelganger King, so the man could not even kill himself.

More and more fear appeared in the Doppelganger King as he felt his body and mind shutting down, and before long, the light in his eyes faded. He was still conscious, but there was only darkness around him, as Cain had severed his senses and body.

Being trapped in a dark prison, unable to see, hear, listen, or even feel anything. There was only darkness and loneliness. It was a horrible experience and just about to get worse for the Doppelganger King.

After ensuring the seal on the Doppelganger King was complete, Cain began to focus on his Space-Time Eye. Before long, a gray force covered his right hand. Around that force, everything seemed to move faster, at first just a little bit, but as Cain funneled more energy, the effect grew stronger.

Eventually, after consuming nearly a third of his energy pool, the gray forceʼs effect grew dozens of times more potent. Of course, it was not really speeding up the flow of time, as Cain was still far from reaching that realm.

However, if applied to a warriorʼs body, it could allow them to move much faster and have the same effect on the mind. Cain put his hand on the Doppelganger Kingʼs head and infused the power of the gray force into this oneʼs brain.

The Doppelganger Kingʼs body began to twitch as his speed of thought accelerated. Every second in that dark prison void of feeling became a minute, and the gray force would last several days.

”A year in that dark prison should be enough to break him.”

Cain did not show anything as he uttered those words and sent the Doppelganger King into the [Samsara Arsenal Module]ʼs First Layer. He wanted the knowledge inside the Dark King but did not want to kill him to obtain it. Thatʼs why he planned to break his will and then try to hypnotize him. It would not be easy, but it was worth the shot.

”After I kill the Doppelganger King, I would have reduced the number of Dark Kings to only two, the Void King and the Mirage King.”

A complicated smile appeared on Cainʼs face as he uttered those words. There was a time when the Dark Kings were the epitome of darkness and danger in the world for him, and just facing one of them was equal to an epic saga worthy of legends. Yet, now, the only thing he needed to do to kill them was find them.
