Dohyuk’s body divided into two. Soon, two Dohyuks were standing on the ground.

“…Huh?” Chanyul grimaced.

Double.

It was a skill that every strong man knew. Once upon a time, it was an infamous skill that everyone sought back in the days, but…

“Cut that bullsh*t, you son of a b*tch.”

Chanyul gritted his teeth. Double was a trap.

It was a skill that no one could master.

Chanyul felt humiliated as the enemy how had much lower stats was trying to use such a skill against him. His storm grew in power.

“I’ll tear you apart.”

As Chanyul threatened him, Dohyuk saw the grass on the ground dissipate from where Chanyul was standing. It was as if they had burned up instantly.

Giwon had already informed him of this Divine Power.

If the attack reached Dohyuk, anything the wind touched would disappear, regardless of the damage. There was no exception to this, and the only way to avoid it was to dodge the attack itself.

Dohyuk moved first. Instead of letting Dohyuk charge at him, Chanyul attacked the Dohyuk that was standing still. If one was moving, it would be hard for Dohyuk to control the other body.

“Hah!”

Chanyul attacked.

…

“Is it enough?”

“…”

“….Ugh!!”

Both of them had different looks on their face, but Yuri and Giwon finally reached one answer.

Give up.

After they were given the message to stay back and not join the fight, both of them reacted the same way. They tried to bust out of the dome to join Dohyuk, but they couldn’t.

When they tried, the dome moved and removed the exit entirely.

“I thought you two were the most loyal to him,” Blass said.

Yuri scoffed, “I am loyal to Dohyuk, not to Iron Man.”

She would’ve said a few more sarcastic words, but she instead flung backward and sprawled on the ground. She was out of Stamina.

She and Giwon were fighting against Blass up until now to make him open the exit again. But they failed miserably.

“You’re like monster… but since when you were so loyal to our boss anyway?”

“No, I’m not doing this because he ordered me.”

“What?”

“Yoo Dohyuk never told me to stop you two from going out. It’s my will that’s blocking you both.”

Yuri frowned and turned to Giwon who also looked at her. Something was strange. They actually weren’t outright revolting when they heard they were not allowed to join the fight. They too knew what kind of impossible things Dohyuk had achieved until now. Naturally, they believed in him.

Yet, it didn’t feel right to stay behind the dome and wait until everything was over, and there was a possibility that things might go wrong somewhere. That’s when Blass blocked them.

“Why?” Giwon asked carefully.

“You two are the ones who do not believe the most.”

“Didn’t you just tell us that we trust him the most?”

Yuri asked in objection, but Blass shook his head.

“No, what I mean is, you two do not believe that all of you have become strong.”

Before they can react, Blass continued, “There will be others fighting out there. It’s probably not only Dohyuk that’s fighting.”

“What…”

“They’ll die out there.”

Both of them were shocked to hear that. There were no other people within the city. They too were being taught by Blass, but both of them just thought it was to ease people’s minds, rather than have them actually help in a fight.

“It’s much better for Dohyuk to fight alone… it’s nonsense. They’ll get in the way. They don’t even have stats…”

Yuri began rambling and Giwon felt the same way. They were not like Dohyuk. That’s when Giwon thought, ‘Wait… There might be something else.’

They didn’t know everything that had been taught in this dome. Recently, it was difficult for people to watch other people in different training sessions. The city was now functioning as a real city and people were too busy with doing what they needed to do to live. That’s why… even Giwon himself was busy with writing the laws and keeping order that he couldn’t spare time to even meet with Dohyuk. He often met Yuri only because she was similar in power.

Yuri also guessed the same thing, but that didn’t mean that they reached a different answer.

“Look, you still cannot believe it. You have more experience and knowledge than anyone here, but because of that, you are blind. You just need to think that the others have gotten half of what you had achieved… wait.”

Blass then stopped.

“Both of you can’t even clearly see how strong you have become.”

“You’re underestimating me and the smart-bo…”

“Fifty percent.” Blass then added, “That was the amount of power that I used to fight you two. According to your master, that was about twice as powerful as Jung Ilgyu from five months ago.”

“…”

“…”

Two of them became doubtful. Twice that of Jung Ilgyu? That meant they each just fought against Jung Ilgyu. Of course, they lost, but ut they thought Blass was only downsizing his power to match them.

“It’s not the first time I dueled you two, but it was the best. It seems you two became serious because you were worried about your master’s safety. Even if you guys didn’t realize it.”

After all, they only lost to Blass by a slight difference.

“Just one.”

He broke the silence.

“There was a genius out of all the people and his talent exceeds both of yours. He is probably within those people Yoo Dohyuk sent out to fight. He had made me train the people with a battle formation with the genius at the center.”

Even when it was only training, Blass had to use 30% of his power to fight against them.

“It’s still risky to use it in a real battle.”

“…Then.” Giwon spoke up after his initial shock. “You fight him in a real-life battle with Dohyuk then?”

“Everyday. At least ten times…”

“Then him… how…”

Yuri was silent as she also realized what Giwon was trying to ask.

“How powerful is he compared to you?”

Blass didn’t answer. To be honest, he hadn’t been completely honest towards Dohyuk in regards to this topic.

Chanyul’s leg did not move. Instead, his arm moved horizontally — the chakram blade fired a wave of wind, but Dohyuk simply squatted to dodge it. He wasn’t just being fast. It was a move that was done after reading Chanyul’s movements. But even then, the attack was so fast that part of Dohyuk’s hair had turned into dust.

Chanyul was already preparing for the next attack.

‘Die.’

The second wave of attacks shot out. Before the attack touched Dohyuk, he disappeared.

“…?!”

Chanyul panicked. Then he turned right. A Dohyuk was standing there.

‘W-what?!’

‘Was it the one that went to the right side a while ago? But when did he get all the way here?’

Dohyuk then twisted his body to kick. Whatever trick he used, it didn’t’ matter. He was still too slow for Chanyul. His chakram tore through the air to slice Dohyuk into two.

Sure, his body did divide into two. But it divided before the chakram hit.

And with that, Dohyuk divided into two as the chakram shot past him.

That’s when Chanyul realized what Dohyuk had done. He had combined himself back into one when he appeared on Chanyul’s right. And then-

There was the twisting kick from one Dohyuk.

And the Dohyuk on the left was also using the same kick.

The attack that Dohyuk created was unleashed upon the ‘poor strong man’.
