After returning to Gold Coast City, the doppelganger only felt refreshed after a joyous occasion. He did not need to sleep for the whole day.
“I feel better now. This Otherworld creature test is stable.”
After returning to the store, the doppelganger saw a girl with a cane pacing at the door of the store. The doppelganger frowned slightly and walked over.
“Do you have something you need?”
“That… that, are you Mr. Constantine?”
The doppelganger nodded, and the girl quickly took out a copy of the commission from her pocket.
“I’m here to execute the commission.”
The doppelganger recalled the commission he had previously entrusted to the Adventurers’ Association. He thought that no one would accept it, but he did not expect that someone would come just a few hours after he left.
‘There must be brave men under the heavy reward?’
“That, that, can we begin?”
The little girl seemed to be a little impatient. The doppelganger nodded and the little girl waved the cane in her hand and began to explain to the doppelganger how to build a stone wall.
“To build a stone wall, you must first learn earth magic and let your body feel the power of the earth. Then, you can use the power of the earth to build a stone wall, just like this!”
The little girl’s body suddenly emitted a faint light, and her finger pointed to the ground.
“Earth Spirit, please build a stone wall!”
The next second, a stone wall about a centimeter long appeared in front of the doppelganger. The doppelganger nodded. He naturally did not have magic power, but that did not mean that he would not learn.
He discovered from the energy circulation in the little girl’s body that magic and spirit power was not much different. In other words, he could use magic to circulate energy and use spirit power to duplicate magic.
“I see.”
The doppelganger nodded and the energy in his body surged. He suddenly pointed at the ground and a tiny bolt of lightning struck the ground.
Immediately after, a stone wall that was more than a meter tall surged up from the ground. When the little girl saw the stone wall, her jaw almost fell off.
Although she had been a Mage Apprentice for five years, she had trained stone wall magic for three years and was already at the pinnacle of perfection. However, she had never seen a genius who could learn the stone wall magic with just one look.
‘Magic seems to be quite simple.’
As the doppelganger thought, he waved his hand to make the stone wall disappear.
“Hmm, this magic can be considered learned. Where do I stamp when the commission is completed?”
The girl immediately took out the commission form and the seal from her pocket.
After covering the seal, the girl let out a long breath and bowed to express her gratitude to the doppelganger.
“Mr. Constantine, thank you so much for your request. My tuition fees for next semester were still seven gold coins short.”
“It’s fine. I also know how hard it is to learn magic. Since you’ve completed it, go back and rest. It’s already very late.”
The doppelganger watched the girl run back to the tavern and sighed with pity.
“Although I didn’t spend much money, I earned it myself. Forget it, I’ll go back to sleep. As expected, I prefer a big, fluffy bed. Hmm… I might as well buy two blankets or something tomorrow.”
Just as the doppelganger returned to the second floor of the shop and was about to sleep, a B1 Battle Droid walked over with a simple projection communicator. This was a small prop that all B1 Battle Droids were equipped with.
“Commander.”
John’s figure appeared in the projection device. The doppelganger looked at John and yawned.
“What’s wrong, John?”
“We killed a group of wild boars of unknown species at the Watchtower. We found crystals in the body of the wild boars. I don’t know if we should throw it away, so I came to ask you.”
As the B1 Battle Droid spoke, it put the crystal image on the projector.
[Fire Crystal]
[Effect: It can ignite raging flames and disperse a portion of enemies and wild beasts. It is a super good item for traveling outside of home.]
“They killed a group of wild boars that condensed Fire Crystals? Hmm… It’s fine. You guys bleed the wild boars, peel off their skin, remove their heads, cut off their four legs and meat, and hang them on a rope to make bacon. Send someone to bring the Fire Crystal over.”
“Yes, I understand. I’ll make the wild boars into bacon. I hope Commander will have a good rest.”
After a night, the doppelganger woke up from his dream. He rubbed his neck in a slightly comfortable manner.
“Yesterday, I kept dreaming about the Mariana Trench. It felt like I was being squeezed. I don’t know what’s going on, but I had a dream because I saw it in the day? No, that’s not right. I saw that in the middle of the night. Forget it, let’s not dwell on these useless things. In six days, the creatures of the Otherworld are going to invade. I have to think about whether there’s any other way to stop those guys.”
“Commander.”
A B1 Battle Droid who was guarding the shop stood at the entrance of the second floor.
“John sent someone to deliver the Fire Crystals.”
“Ah, right, I almost forgot. Yesterday, that guy brought people to kill a herd of wild boars. The Fire Crystals were taken from those wild boars.”
The doppelganger quickly stood up, changed his clothes, and walked to the first floor. The B1 Battle Droid who was holding the Fire Crystals handed a bag to the doppelganger.
“Alright, thank you for your hard work. Go back to the Watchtower and tell John to bring the team back to the manor in three days. We won’t stay here for a while. There’s something important that needs your attention.”
“Roger roger.”
Seeing that the B1 Battle Droid left quickly, the doppelganger turned to look at the remaining five B1 Battle Droids in the shop.
“This shop will be closed for a few days after another four days. You guys should also make some preparations. Don’t panic when the time comes.”
“Roger roger.”
“Commander, are we going back to the manor too?”
“Yes, because something is going to invade the manor. We have to go back and make preparations.”
The B1 Battle Droids looked at each other and took out their blaster guns from their backs.
“We will listen to the Commander’s orders.”
“Don’t be so nervous. Let’s take care of the things in front of us first. It’s time to open the shop.”
The door opened, and dozens of customers poured into the shop. Most of them were poor people from Gold Coast City. Four B1 Battle Droids started to maintain order, and the remaining one continued to stand at the cashier to collect money.
Seeing the customers lined up in an orderly manner, the doppelganger nodded and walked up to the second floor. With a twist of space, the doppelganger returned to the manor.
“These two skills are getting more and more familiar.”
The doppelganger’s eyes were slightly absent-minded. Following that, Cole sat up from the bed. The two of them stood there and looked at themselves.
“The control of the doppelganger is more complicated. Although I have B-class spiritual power, it still feels a little blocked.”
From the doppelganger’s hands, Cole received all the rewards from his trip to the Otherworld.
“Although these things are not bad, I prefer the bottomless Mariana Trench, haha..”
