SSS SKILL: DUPLICATE

Edgar returned to the Philippines in the evening, and then in the morning, he told Melody that he had learned a healing skill and could treat her illness and scar.

Melody is silent for a while, then she starts talking.

"Before you left, you told me of the threat that exists outside of Earth. I feel my concept getting stronger while my vision remains like this. Like you, I have people to protect. You told me that I could become one of the strongest on Earth. I want to gain that power. I don't want to lose them, the people that help me keep on living," said Melody.

Edgar smiles. He is surprised by her growth.

"I understand, but your scar can still be removed," said Edgar.

Melody nods.

"Boss! Are you going to heal Sis' scar?" asked Seanlu, who is listening from the side.

"Yes," answered Edgar.

Seanlu feels happy. He also treats Melody as his older sister. It's been a week since Edgar spread aura and magic cultivation. Seanlu also reached the first stage of aura. Before Edgar left, he trained them to fight for a few days. Seanlu and Melody work together in the illusion space to fight a magic beast. If not for her, he could have been torn to pieces many times by magic beasts. If they die in the illusion space, they will experience headaches. They need to recover before they can enter the illusion space again. Edgar prepared a magic chamber that contains the illusion dust. There are two magic chambers in the underground hall. There are two buttons: one is for training the skill, and the other is for combat.

Edgar let Melody lie on the sofa. He cast magic, and then very thin needles made up of light elements formed. He manipulated them and punctured the nerves around the scar. He lifts the sofa with magic. He took out a scalpel from his storage space and clad it with his aura. His concept clad the edge, then he swiftly cut and removed the scar. To heal a scar using healing magic, it has to be removed first so the tissue can regenerate.

He cast healing magic, then the wound started to heal, and the tissues are regenerating.

The procedure is very fast.

Edgar dispersed the needles, which turned into golden lights.

Seanlu looks at Melody with an astonished face and says,"Sister, you are a lot more beautiful!"

Melody just smiles. She no longer cares too much if she has a scar or not. The world is in danger. Beautiful or not, everyone might perish. She cares more about getting stronger.

After training, he took Melody back to the orphanage. The orphanage looks a lot better. Edgar contracted a construction company to expand the orphanage. There are now more playgrounds for children. The orphanage became a lot more comfortable for children to live in.

Sister Lora and the children are surprised when they saw Melody. Edgar said that he has a friend who knows healing magic and asked him to heal the scar. Sister Lora holds Edgar's hand and asks with hope if his friend can heal Melody's eyes. Edgar shakes his head. Sister Lora looks sad, but Melody consoles her. She chose to stay blind to get the power that could protect them.

Edgar drives toward Seanlu's home.

"Boss, is the concept so powerful that sister Melody is willing to not treat her eyes to better develop her concept?" asked Seanlu.

"Of course, did you not experience her concept? The illusion looks so real. When she attacks, even experienced fighters will have difficulty identifying what is real and not real attack. A weak attack might be strong, a strong attack might be fake. Her application of illusion has many possibilities. Your master also reached that stage, trained diligently, believed in yourself. You have the talent for martial arts," said Edgar.

"Y-yes, boss," said Seanlu.

Edgar smiles at Seanlu, who lacks confidence.

"The will of the kid hasn't been honed yet," thought Edgar.

"When can you have your driver's license? I will buy you a car and give you money. Go make a convenience store. Just let them supervise it. Don't let your parents work hard anymore. You now have the power to give them a good life," said Edgar.

Seanlu's eyes turned watery. He is very grateful to Edgar. His life changed a lot when he met him. He wiped his tears.

"B-But how can I explain where I got the money, boss? I am still hiding that I became a hyperbeing," said Seanlu.

"Simple, I will give you a rare medicinal plant, and you will sell it. Just say that you will go to a mountain with friends and return home with the medicinal plant that I will give you. It's a common reason but so effective," said Edgar.

"Is it really that simple, boss?" asked Seanlu with an astonished face.

Edgar smiled and said, "Trust me, it will work."

Seanlu did what Edgar had said, and his parents had shocking expressions. They accompanied him to sell it to a popular store, and they suddenly became rich. They franchise a convenience store in a good location. Seanlu is now able to focus more on his training.

In one evening, Edgar is standing on the balcony while looking at the sky with beautiful full moon and dense stars.

"It's been almost a month since I spread aura and magic cultivation. It is almost time to assemble the hidden dragon guards. People with good talent should have achieved success in aura and magic cultivation. I can test their character with illusion," thought Edgar.

One week has passed.

Seanlu is standing in front of the school gate. His hair is swaying as the wind blows. His eyes no longer look the same. His eyes look sharp. The look of a timid boy is no longer there.

He entered the school and then walks toward his classroom, where some arrogant boys are waiting for him.

Today, everyone will see a new Seanlu.
