White Online

Doppelgänger moved across the room, smashing his fists into the frightened-looking players. As he left behind a crying group of players, he moved over to Alice with a sickening grin.

However, before he could reach her, Amour launched forward, and slashed with the crimson-bladed axe. Before it could reach Doppelgänger, an invisible wall appeared, and stopped the axe like it was held by invisible strings.

Doppelgänger turned to Amour with a grin, and snapped his fingers. The ceiling fell, and landed on top of him, burying him like an ancient mummy.

He then turned to Alice, and saw the frightened expression on her young maiden's face. With one step, he was already standing in front of her, and then his right hand turned into a steel spear.

''Whoo!'' with a cry of joy, Doppelgänger stabbed the spear forward, and it approached Alice's face.

''Eh...'' Alice's face froze, then recalled memories of her early days in White Online. The whole room looked like it was frozen. The steel spear stopped moving, Doppelgänger unfazed grin stayed still, and she could see Diana screaming along with Amour.

As she dropped her gaze, her hand was the only thing that moved in the frozen time. Then, she pressed it against Doppelgänger's torso, and whispered,

''Divine Magic, A Force.''

Boom! The time started again moving, and Doppelgänger's face froze as fresh blood gushed out of his mouth. However, the blood was... transparent, like it was made from the same material as a mirror...

He flew through the room like a person who had lost control of an airplane. Then, he crashed into the rocky wall, and got deeply buried inside. Near the ceiling, holographic screen appeared, showing that the Boss had lost health slightly.

Everyone turned to Alice. Millions of eyes saw a beautiful young maiden, gasping for air. However, in their eyes, she looked immensely powerful. She was the first one, in their opinion, who had injured Underlord even slightly!

''W-what was that...'' she looked at her trembling hands. It was like someone froze the air, helping her to do that.

In one of the watching rooms, God Zeus, and Shiva frowned. They realized something.

''She... doesn't realize she did that by herself.'' Zeus said and turned to Shiva who chuckled.

''Yeah, she is already at level of Grand Priestess, isn't she?'' Shiva rubbed his cheek with a chuckle.

''Then, how does she not know?''

''The interface doesn't show?''

''Hmm, it should show...''

Shiva dryly chuckled, and gave his theory, ''Maybe she is this powerful as an ordinary Priestess.''

''Impossible...'' Zeus wanted to say, but this Whitelock family was giving him the creeps. Isaac, the first player to defeat God, and now his little sister, a player who could use the power of time without special class.

''Priest class is strange.'' Shiva said, and shrugged, ''I always thought it was strange. It is a class that allows you to communicate with Gods, and borrow power from them.''

''Borrow power needs to go on two-ways. The priest can't borrow power if God doesn't allow it so.''

Shiva, and Zeus turned to each other, their eyes widening.

''There is only one God with time-related powers...'' Zeus gulped, ''My father... Chronos, a Primordial God, allowed human to borrow his powers?''

''So, he chose her... but why?''

...

Doppelgänger jumped out of the wall with disheveled hair. He looked at Alice with creased brows. Then, he launched forward, and slammed his fist into her cheek. Bam! With her head twisted to the side, Alice fell to the ground in agonizing pain. It was like a car hit her.

However, she couldn't let any sound out as all the air left her lungs. Only tears flew as she hugged her body.

''Shit.'' Doppelgänger patted the dust off his clothing, then turned back to Alice, and as he was about to kick, his body froze.

He spun around in a hurry, and saw a ginger-haired man looking at him with no emotion. Amour climbed out of the debris, and with Diana, angrily attacked Doppelgänger. He effortlessly backhanded Diana, shoving her to the side, and blocked Amour's rageful strike.

However, Doppelgänger couldn't properly concentrate as Zachary's gaze was locked at him. It was like a God looking down at human.

Then, a voice rang in his ears, ''Who might you be... you aren't Underlord.''

Doppelgänger gritted his teeth, grabbed Amour's face, and threw him away. Then, he lunged toward Zachary, and shouted, ''Quiet!''

Zachary suddenly felt like his body was being crushed inside down. Doppelgänger swiped his hand left, and right, then counterclockwise. The invisible walls engulfed the ginger-haired man, and it looked it was trying to crush a watermelon.

''Oooofff!'' Zachary had hard time breathing, and could tell that Doppelgänger was trying to kill him. Then, his gaze turned degree colder as he suddenly vanished, and under astonished expressions of others, he appeared before the reality warper, and smirked, ''Surprise!''

Doppelgänger grabbed Zachary's face, trying to crush it. However, the ginger-haired man's face disappeared along with his entire body. Then, the entire room turned dark with a starry sky. It was like he was floating in the night sky.

''Where?!'' he looked around the night sky, but couldn't see his opponent anywhere. Then, the stars exploded around him, and pushed him out of that realm.

The spectators watched as Doppelgänger's body seemed to have been hurt by something, and then was sent flying. As he crashed on the wall, Zachary appeared beside him, grabbed him by his hair, and slammed him into the ground.

''Ugh... what the heck are you?!'' Doppelgänger extended his hand toward Zachary, but then again, everything turned dark. He could hear a chilly voice in his mind, almost making his eardrums explode.

''I am Zachary... the Legacy Carrier of Nyx, the Primordial Goddess of Night, and while the Underlord has absolute control of Reality, I have absolute control of Creation.''

Doppelgänger's eyes widened, then his head exploded. Everyone's jaw dropped as, in their eyes, the undefeated Underlord, suddenly died, and disappeared.

Zachary watched as the Doppelgänger disappeared, and shook his head, ''Quite weak. Underlord is stronger, and I kind of want to fight him.''

In one of the watching rooms, Shiva facepalmed, ''There was another monster like him? Damn, my great round was ruined!''
