SSS SKILL: DUPLICATE

A while ago, at the headquarters of PHA, the vice president of the association was notified of the emergency in Quezon City. The president is in a broken world, so the vice president is taking over the command. The headquarters is in the south, where there are more restricted areas.

Owen, the vice president, is in a monitoring room. A big screen is floating over a hologram screen on the ground. There are many monitors in the room. Below them are touch-screen keyboards and mouse. In front of the monitors are officers in official attire and wearing an earpiece with a mic. On the big screen in the hologram is an alert level 3 mark in Quezon City.

"Have you notified the branch of the Poison Guild in Quezon City?" Owen asked an officer.

"Yes, sir, but they said that their equipment is under maintenance. According to them, it will take time before they can help," said the officer with sweat on his face as he stares at the alert level 3 on the screen.

"Damn Tivac! Damn Poison Guild! They only have self-interest in their minds! Have you communicated with the air force?" Owen asked another officer.

"Yes, sir! The helicopters are ready. They will take high-level hyperbeings to the site!" answered an officer. All the other officers are still communicating and calling for help.

"What did the scientist say?! Why is there an immediate world's burst?!" asked Owen.

"They are still studying it, sir, since this is the first time that it happened," said another officer.

"Give me a view of what is happening there right now!" Owen ordered.

The officers operate the computers, then screens appear in the hologram, and many videos are shown. An officer enlarged a particular screen, which shows the video of Susan, who is fighting alone. More orcs came out of the portal. The hearts of everyone are very heavy as they look at the screen.

"Su," softly said a female officer in the corner with short brown hair. She has watery eyes as she looks at the screen. Susan is her younger sister. Susan did not join the PHA because she wanted to join her friend, who invited her to a guild established by her friend's sister.

When Merryl and Robert arrived, they felt relieved. They even cheered when Robert was blowing away the orcs. When more hyperbeings arrived, they thought the area was already safe, but more Tier 2 orcs went out of the portal, and they worked together against the hyperbeings. People on the road already went away, but the people in the buildings are still there. The hyperbeings are trying to move the fights away from the buildings. They are having more injuries. Everyone in the room has watery eyes.

VROOOM! A rushing red and black motorbike is caught by a screen, which catches everyone's attention. They don't know why, but hope is ignited in their hearts as they look at the rider, and they are not mistaken.

A magic circle appears in front of the motorbike.

The motorbike went straight to the magic circle and disappeared. It went to Edgar's storage space.

Edgar flew into the air. A magic circle flashed on his hand. Fire element gathers in his left hand and forms a bow.

Oscar's eyes follow the figure of Edgar. He has a feeling that Edgar will be a legendary figure, and he seems to have the urge to follow in the footsteps of that man.

LIFE DETECTION

The positions of orcs and hyperbeings appear in Edgar's mind.

He aims his bow at the sky. He pulled the string made of fire element. Threads of fire element gather and rotate until they form three arrows. Threads of white aura rotate at the tip of three arrows. As the threads of aura rotate, three big orange magic circles appear in the air, then they move and shrink toward the tip of three arrows. Edgar shot the arrows into the sky.

ART OF ARCHERY: HOMING ARROWS

The three arrows went in three different directions in the sky. Threads of fire are rotating on the arrows. An arrow reached a target area first. It started falling down, then the magic circle at its tip suddenly expanded. The arrow went down at the magic circle, then many fire arrows suddenly came out of the circle and rapidly fly down from the sky. Their tip is clad in white aura. The arrows curve and go straight to orcs.

"Ahhhh!" The orcs scream. Many orcs are killed.

The other two arrows in the sky also reached their target and attacked the orcs causing more screams to appear.

Edgar keeps flying.

There are two Tier 2 orcs in front of him and a severely injured hyperbeing. The Tier 1 orcs around them are dead. Tier 2 were able to block the arrows.

Edgar steps on earth.

Boom! He suddenly accelerates toward the orcs.

The tier 2 orcs are startled and did not have time to cast magic, so they raise their club.

Edgar steps on earth in the air. He moves his feet closer to his body. His right hand is holding his sword with rotating threads of fire.

Boom! He charges down from the air and swings his sword.

Wenng! The orc's head is flying in the air. Behind his headless body is Edgar with flashing lightning on his body.

The other tier 2 orc is shocked. His comrade is dead and his enemy is in front of him.

Boom! The cement cracked as Edgar suddenly dashed, then he slashed his sword.

The orc wanted to swing his club, but it was too late. He stopped moving, then his body separated into left and right.

A big bottle with a health potion came out of Edgar's storage space. He opens the cap with magic, and he controls the potion to move above the hyperbeing. The potion burst into red lights and fell on the hyperbeing. The hyperbeing's condition rapidly began to improve.

Edgar immediately flew when the potion burst.

Robert is breathing heavily as blood leaks from his mouth. His clothes are already tainted with a lot of blood. He is guarding an injured hyperbeing. His right arm is raising a shield. His left arm is hanging on his left side with flowing blood and his left forehead is also bleeding. The fire arrows gave him breathing space, but the threat is not eliminated. There are four Tier 2 orcs looking at him with killing intent. They recovered from shock, and they want to kill Robert and the other hyperbeing before the human that cast the powerful skill arrived.
