"Master! You are awake!

" They said to him.

nJoan felt dumbstruck as he saw them alive. He can't believe what he was seeing.

n

"Wait? You are saved! I didn't expect though! Hahaha,

" Joan said to them. Scratching his head on the process.

nThey were staring at him with a dismayed look. The duplicate can only shake his head then smashed his head with his fist.

n

"Stupid!

" The duplicate shouted when he smacks him.

nA bump of swollen skin emerged from his head. .

n

"You seriously think to underestimate me? You got the nerves! I made all that efforts! And you are just sleeping there. You old man! Ugh, just stop there. Anyways, I completed the task. I will disappear in your command,

" He said then kneeled.

n

"Old man?

" Asked Kendrick. Baffled.

n

"Hahaha, you are so formal. I thought you are my soul?

" Joan asked him.

n

"Nah, after saving them that took almost all of my willpower. Do you know how hard for my brain to maintain four shadow clones?

" He bellowed, scratching his head.

n

"Oh, I see. You need to rest, you are lucky you didn't have a breakdown!

" Joan said to him.

n

"See! My head hurts like hell I might go insane! Lucky enough, I didn't blackout!

" The duplicate was explaining hard to him.

nThey were looking at two Joan's and they were confused who was who. Looking at him who has the same voice and the same clothes even made it worst. Not even thinking that they were both powerful.

n

"Um master, we should get out of this place as soon as possible. I think this place is not safe anymore.

" Kendrick said to Joan.

nHe smiled then faced the duplicate.

n

"You may go now, I am happy that you succeeded in your mission,

" Joan said then snapped his fingers.

nSoon after, the duplicate then turned into dust and went inside Joan. They saw him disappear like he was not there at all. His clothes were the same as him, being made into dust was a first for their sight.

nThey didn't expect to met someone being just a skill of another person. A skill that talks like a person, walks and acts like a person. Even though he was real, the skill was just a skill.

nNot something to be attached at and some kind like a bubble that disappeared as fast it was created.

nThe other students were so dumbstruck as they saw him disappeared. They were staring in blank air and they were utterly silent. Jaws dropping wide and paralysed.

nThey didn't even say their thanks for his bravery to save them all without fail. Not something that can be executed perfectly but he made it.

nThey closed their mouths and inhaled great amounts of air. Relieving their dismayed self and regret.

n

"So he was gone now, well I didn't even say my goodbye to him. Not even saying thanks,

" Kendrick said as he felt lonely.

n

"Silly, you should say your thanks again next time. He didn't die! Just sleeping inside me that is! Or maybe he is me? I don't know? But let us hurry to make out alive here. And I am sorry to hide my skills from all of you. I will explain later on, let us go home now. With my pets as guards of course!

" Joan said to them.

n

"Pets? What pets?

" Asked Ben, confused.

nJoan scratched his head and explained.

n

"You see, I am not in the best condition. The pain in the head of my duplicate is transferred to me as he overexerted himself with his willpower. You can say that his pains and even wounds will be transferred to me after he will disappear. So let us meet my guards!

" Joan said then used his Lycan job class.

n

"Beast call!

" Joan shouted as he cast his skill.

nBeast call–summoning forth the contracted spirit wolves and crows. Maintained by the mana of the user. The crows and spirit wolves regenerate by consuming the mana of the caster.

nFrom where Joan stands, emerged from his shadow; wolves and crows. Standing in his front, were ten wolves. Big enough to be as tall as the kids.

nCrows were numbered ten. Flapping their wings rapidly as they were encircling Joan.

n

"Canine! Your pack is very healthy! I can see you all have grown!

" Joan said to them.

nThe wolves were confused about why they were summoned. Looking at their surroundings first then all looked at their summoner.

nStaring blankly at his stature who was only a kid and managed to call forth ten of them at once in his first try with ten crows as a spare.

nTheir leader of the pack stared at Joan as their new contracted summoner. Revered him as he managed to summon him as well as the others. He went to kneel to Joan and seemingly didn't know Joan at all.

nA white-furred Wolf who was signifying his old age and was still in his prime.

n

"I am Canine! The leader of the pack! I will serve you as well as my pack to follow your bidding!

" Canine said to him.

n

"It seems you didn't recognise me?

" Joan said in disgust.

n

"Ugh? I didn't know what you are talking about master?

" Canine said it in confusion.

n

"I will just summon my skeleton soldiers instead! Maybe they are better?

" Joan said to them.

n

"Necromancer? Wait? Those lines? Are you perhaps Master Joan? Congratulations on your Rebirth!

" Canine seemed to wiggle his tail in excitement.

nOther wolves seemed to hop and cried in a howl.

n

"Master! It's been so long!

" Canine leapt in his arms in great happiness.

n

"Hehehe, So you remembered now, but it was soul transmigration this time. You are in a different world. The world of the God of Angels. Now let us hurry back to the village, I am worried that this place is tainted with evil,

" Joan said to him.

nJoan then rides Canine in the back by hopping and then placed his hunted prize on his back.

n

"Ride the wolves! We will set our destination to the village!

" Joan said to them.

nThe other kids were hesitating as it was their first time doing so. They didn't even know that they can ride something too huge.

nThe wolves then sat on the ground to let them ride. As they ride in them, they set their destination towards the village.

nRunning like a wind without trouble in the forest's geography. Evading trees and outgrown roots, they were like fish in the water.

nJoan was greatly worried about the village. The crows were flying just beside them.

n

"Crows! Scout ahead the way and evade the enemies. Lead the way and guide us!

" Joan shouted at them.

nThey immediately followed his instructions. They evaded the enemy encounters and were travelling in their fastest. Not wanting to collide with ghouls on their way to the village.

nSoon they saw the exit of the forest. Joan's face immediately became pale.

nSmokes that came from their village was seen.

n

"Canine hurry!

" Joan said to him. Heart racing in great distress.
