Then he look at the Doppelganger, as the later look back at him. After a brief moment of that stand off, both Shin and the Doppelganger suddenly disappeared from their current positions, and reappeared at the middle of those spots. Shin is ducking forward as he pulled the [Yamato] out from its sheath, before swinging it leftwards. 'Class Fighting Style: Quick Draw' Shing! At the same time, the Doppelganger throw a downward slash with the sword on its left hand, together with a powerful force 'Copied Skill: Destructive Slash' Clang!

After failing to hit his mark, Shin immediately take a single step forward with his left foot before turning his body towards his right and throwing forward sword thrust at it. Cling! Shin's sword was deflected by the Doppelganger's sword when he throw that sword thrust. After that, the Doppelganger swing the sword on its left hand, targeting Shin's back. The Doppelganger's counter is perfectly timed to react, but Shin calmly responded at it. He is holding the sheath of his sword with his left hand in a reverse handgrip manner. Then he tightens his grip on the sword-sheath as he move his left arm backwards and positioning the sheath diagonally at his back, planning to block the incoming sword strike. 'Dual-Wielding Style: Sheath Wielding: Defend' Clang! (-10 876) The sword strike was quite powerful so Shin have taken some damage, but that damage is quite minimal with his current HP. He use the force the came from that sword strike to move slightly forward, before throwing a back kick at the abdomen of the Doppelganger. Pak -15 672 Shin seize that small window to do a rotating jump in the air as he throwing a downwards slash at the Doppelganger. 'Extra Skill: Falling Lightblade' The Doppelganger raise its left arm before holding the sword on its left hand in front of it in a horizontal manner, tying to block the incoming slash. Clang! The Doppelganger took another backward step when it received the downward slash. Shin on the other hand continue is assault. He use the [Yamato] to throw a diagonal slash at the Doppelganger. Then it was followed by a horizontal cut and a vertical chop. 'Self-Created Skill: Triple Slash' Then the Doppelganger use each of its sword to throw a three consecutive slashes of its own to counter Shin's sword strikes.' Copied Skill: Triple Slash' Clang! Clang! Clang! Each of Shin's strikes is stronger than the other because of the 'Yin-Yang Tiwst' Combat Technique, and the Doppelganger already knew about it, so it didn't let Shin to acuminate more force for his next attacks. The Doppelganger transformed into a stick of crimson light as it move backwards and putting up some distance away from Shin. 'Copied Skill: Moonlight Steps' Swoosh! But how can Shin let the Doppelganger get away just like that? He transform into a stick of bluish-white light and charges forward, chasing after the later. 'Slayer Skill: Moonlight Steps' Swoosh!

But before their swords collides with each other, Shin suddenly flicked his left wrist, making for the [Piercing Thorn] to change its trajectory. Pssk! -86 998 The [Piercing Thorn] pierced through the left chest of the Doppelganger but it failed to hit the target heart. Eh!? No, the Doppelganger have no heart to be targeted to begin with, so the expected bonus effect of the 'Heart Seeker' skill didn't come in effect. Then both of the swords of the Doppelganger suddenly release a threatening crimson glow. Shin immediately pulled the [Piercing Thorn] from the Doppelganger's chest and jumped backwards to put some distance away from the Doppelganger. And that is the time when the Doppelganger throw a simultaneous diagonal slash with each of its sword on its front, sending a crimson cross shaped sword Qi towards Shin's direction. 'Copied Skill: Eclipse Cross' Meanwhile, Shin jump upwards before kicking the air below him to let him gone higher and dodging the incoming cross shaped sword Qi. 'Legacy Skill: Mondi's Jump' Pa! Then Shin use another kick in the air to let himself to descend on the ground with a greater speed. Pa! Swoosh! At the same time, both of Shin's sword suddenly release a purple glow before he swing them diagonally on his front, and sending a purple cross shaped sword Qi at the Doppelganger. 'Combined Skill: Eclipse Cross' Then the sword on the Doppelganger's right hand suddenly release another crimson glow. After that, the Doppelganger swing its sword in an lower-right to upper-left diagonal motion, sending a straight crimson sword wave at Shin's direction. 'Copied Skill: Eclipse Slash' Boom! Shin's cross shaped sword Qi was immediately destroyed by the crimson sword wave because the Doppelganger's stats is a lot higher than Shin. Then that crimson sword wave continue flying towards Shin but with a less power in it. Shin formed a purple barrier around him to block the incoming sword wave while falling towards the ground. 'Slayer Skill: Eclipse Pulse' Bang! Crack! Crack! The purple barrier around Shin show a lot of cracks on its surface when it was hit by the crimson sword wave, but it still managed to survive the attack. Then Shin successfully landed on the ground, four meters away from the Doppelganger. After that, Shin immediately swing the [Yamato] rightwards, making for the purple barrier around him to be detonated and sending a circular sword wave that extends in all direction. 'Slayer Skill: Eclipse Counter' Bang! Swoosh! And the Doppelganger failed to dodge circular sword wave because it was gotten off guard by Shin's actions. -274 892 After that, Shin suddenly disappeared at the Doppelganger's sight and reappeared right in front of the later. 'Basic Combat Technique: Vanishing Steps' Then Shin quickly use the [Piercing Thorn] to throw a six consecutive stabs at the Doppelganger while it is still regaining its balance. 'Extra Skill: Multiple Stabs' But due to the Doppelganger having the 'Ultra Instincts' Personal Trait, it still manage to use its swords to block three of the stabs. Sha! -23 999 Clang! Clang! Sha!

Pak! -15 252 The Doppelganger failed to react at Shin's simple kick one again and stumble backwards and fall on its butt. 'I really like this new battle style from the system.' thought Shin to himself before releasing the 'Conviction Form' the 'Mondi's Style' and returning the [Piercing Thorn] into its sheath form. Then he swiftly put the [Yamato] on its sheath before taking a sword drawing stance. The Doppelganger is currently sitting on the ground so it can't block or dodge the incoming strike. All it can do is to activate its remaining defensive skill. A sword Qi enfold its body, protecting it from any harm. 'Copied Skill: Swordsman Resolve' Shin sneered at the Doppelganger and said. "Heh, Idi*t." Then Shin jump forward before spinning in the air and throwing a powerful kick at the Doppelganger's head with his left leg. Pak! The kick didn't deal any damage because of the five second damage immunity of the 'Swordsman Resolve' Skill, but that kick is enough to knock the Doppelganger on the ground. Then Shin put some distance away from the Doppelganger to wait for the ten second duration of the 'Swordsman Resolve' to come to an end. Naturally, the Doppelganger will chase after Shin during this time. But the later is quite skilled at running and dodging. And when the ten second duration was up, Shin finally start his counterattack. Shin skillfully dodge the Doppelganger sword strikes and hop backwards while secretly channeling the power of the Sun on his sheathed sword. And when the Doppelganger chase after him, Shin quickly pulled the sword from its sheath and swing it at the Doppelganger. Shing! When the Doppelganger saw that sword draw, it immediately cross its two swords to block the incoming sword strike. But unfortunately for it, it is not an ordinary sword draw, because a blazing sword Qi was release right after Shin swing the sword. 'Class Fighting Style: Solar Flare' Bang! -1 276 416 -2 400(Burning Damage) That massive damage make the make the the Doppelganger to become enrage. It jumped out the blazing flame, and planning to attack Shin. But when the Doppelganger jumped forward, another crescent sword wave greeted it. And this time it is a sword Qi with a chilling aura. 'Slayer Skill: Half-Moon Slash' -110 162(Frozen) Because of the combo was executed too fast, the Doppelganger was hit by the chilling sword Qi and was frozen in place. Then Shin take advantage of that time to throw another flaming sword Qi at the frozen Doppelganger. 'Extra Skill: Flame Burst' -96 396 -2 400(Burning Damage) BOOM!!!! -200 000(Opposing Element Explosion) Then Shin immediately sheath his sword once again and channels the power of the Moon on it. After that he jump a little forward and get near at the raging flame caused by the explosion. At the same time, the Doppelganger already learned its lesson and didn't blindly jump forward. Instead, it move backwards to get out from the flames. Unfortunately, Shin already predicted that, and that is why he move closer to the raging flames. After that, he quickly pulled the [Yamato] out from its sheath and swing it rightwards, sending a crescent chilling sword Qi towards the raging flames. 'Class Fighting Style: Lunar Flash' Shing! Doppelganger's senses are being hindered because of the raging flames around it. And so, it failed to dodge or block the incoming ice-cold sword Qi. Bang! -1 394 963(Frozen) Then the raging flames were immediately removed and replaced by a cold ice on the ground. At the same time, the Doppelganger was frozen once again. Shin quickly sheath his sword for another time before dashing forward and sliding at the frozen floor. And when he arrived in front of the Doppelganger, Shin immediately pulled the sword once again and slash it the later's frozen body. 'Class Fighting Style: Quick Draw' Shing! And since this is the strongest single target Skill at Shin's arsenal, the damage it dealt is quite stronger than his other 'Class Fighting Style Skills'. Pssk! -2 552 832 Then Shin immediately use the 'Moonlight Steps' to get away from the Doppelganger. BOOM!!! The Doppelganger have gone berserk with its one and a half million remaining HP. Then it suddenly disappeared at its current location and reappeared at Shin's back while swinging its sword downwards. Shin use the 'Sun-Ray Dash' forward to get away from the Doppelganger. But the later immediately chase after him. Shin cancel the 'Sun-Ray Dash' and use the 'Sword Rush' skill to change his direction. Unfortunately, the Doppelganger didn't get tricked by that sudden change of direction and continue chasing after him. Shin tried to use the 'Vanishing Steps' a few times to shake off the Doppelganger, but the later is always able to locked at his location. Left with no choice, Shin is forced to face the berserk Doppelganger head-on. He transformed the sheath of his sword into a semitransparent longsword before holding it a forehand grip manner. 'Legacy Skill: Mondi's Style: Meteor Form' Then Shin suddenly felt that he have gotten some bonus strength that came from his sword. But he is unable to feel it clearly because of the Doppelganger is already upon him. He immediately swing the [Snowstorm Edge] and [Yamato] left and right, deflecting the incoming sword strikes of the Doppelganger. 'Quasi-Epic Combat Technique: Parrying Stance' Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Shin is able to hold his ground firmly from the sword strikes of the Doppelganger. But after some time, he is starting to get some damage as the difference on their stats are starting to show its gap. Then Shin suddenly get an inspiration. He gritted his teeth as he swing his swords more. And every time his swords collides with his opponent's swords, he is trying to absorb some of force from the collision, before using it to supplement his attacks. He is using the 'Yin-Yang Twist' Combat Technique together with the 'Parrying Stance' Combat Technique. And after some time of using those Combat Techniques together against his opponent's attacks, Shin is starting get a hold of it and manage to get the upper hand as he deal some more damage at the Doppelganger. Then a System Notification sounded on Shin's ears, unfortunately he have no time to check what kind of notification is it. BANG! (-50 632) Shin was sent flying backwards after getting hit by a very powerful sword strike cast by the Doppelganger. Then he flip in the air to relieve some force from the impact of that attack. At the same time, he release the 'Meteor Form' of the 'Mondi's Style' and transform the [Snowstorm Edge] back to its sheath form, before Shin put the [Yamato] in it. Ta-Ta! Shin crouch on the ground while holding the sheath of his sword with his left hand while placing his right hand at the hilt of the sword. And that is the time when the when the Doppelganger arrived some distance away from Shin, before swinging both of its sword diagonally, sending a cross shaped crimson sword Qi forward. 'Copied Skill: Eclipse Cross' Shin took a deep breath before sprinting forward. And before he collides with the cross shaped sword Qi, his body suddenly transformed into a stick of bluish-white light that charges forward, and pass through that sword Qi. 'Slayer Skill: Moonlight Steps' As if expecting that, the Doppelganger already release the 'Meteor Fom' of his sword and transform it into a sheath, before putting its other sword on it. Then the Doppelganger transform into a stick of crimson light and dashes forward.Swoosh!When Shin saw that, he retain his current form before accelerating forward as he plan to end this battle on this exchange. 'Basic Combat Technique: Second Drive' Swoosh! And when they are about to brush pass each other, they simultaneously pulled their swords out from their sheaths before slashing it at their opponents. 'Class Fighting Style: Moonlight Splitter' 'Copied Skill: Moonlight Splitter' Shing! Shing! The sword of the Doppelganger is stronger because of its superior stats, but Shin's sword is way faster than the former because he use a crucial skill at the perfect time. 'Advance Combat Technique: Triple Drive' 'Extra Skill: Conversion: INT to AGI' And because the 'Moonlight Splitter' is an AGI base skill, its damage skyrocket and reach a whole new level, especially with Shin's quadruple stats in his Double Berserk Skill state. Splash! -3 396 672(OVERKILL!!!) Level Up! And at that very moment, Shin suddenly entered a weaken state as the side effect of the double berserk skill.
