The duplicate went on to rescue the others. It was very crucial on his part to rescue the students of his original. Bearing the copy of the soul of Joan, he can feel the same worry and fear of losing them.
Not a single wasted moment was made so he teleported to their locations. He first arrived at Ben and Gladden. Having seen the two of them almost surrendering their lives but they were rescued by Joan's Rogue [Shadow clone].
Duelling the ghoul but it was in disadvantaged. Only making cuts on it and the ghoul seemed to regenerate. Having been able to fulfil its purpose to buy time made Joan's duplicate to be glad.
Even more so, he will be punished if the students were dead. With the clones split into four. It made also their vitality, defence, and durability to be split into four..
Now imagine a thousand of them. It will also split its health to a thousand. A very limitless skill to be exact. It has full of potential but Joan's skill [Shadow clone] was very advanced for his current self. Also forcing himself to do it.
But Joan's duplication was able to pull it off due to him just being a duplicate. Not minding himself but the fulfilment of his purpose was his priority.
Even though that skill was having limitless potential, it also has a great setback as you have to maintain the clones with your willpower.
Joan as the original was on the verge of collapsing with great willpower exhausted. At that moment, he duplicated himself as small willpower was still left on him.
Even though it was hasty, Joan's duplicate managed to regain willpower as he rested a bit. Saving it up for that moment where he made the [Shadow clones].
With him being able to fulfil the first task of saving one team of his original's team, he regained some of his willpower.
He saw that the other students were looking at both of his Rogue's [Shadow clone] and him.
They were struck with great questions in their minds. Who was the one who saves them? And who was the one that arrived?
Joan's duplicate then moved towards them and healed Ben and Gladden with his skill [Heal].
"Who are you? And Who is the real one from the both of you? Who is the real master?" Ben said while wracking his brain.
Joan's duplicate then smiled at the both of them.
"There are neither from the both of us. We are just a clone and a duplicate. From what you see, that is the [Shadow clone] of my Rogue class and I am the duplicate of your master. Let us stop this first. Let us hurry to your master's side. He was sleeping and he passed out," The duplicate said then made teleportation runes below them.
"Whoa! What is this!? Are you perhaps a Mage?" Gladden said hesitantly.
He just smirked at his question and then replied with a nod.
They soon teleported with the [Shadow clone]. Leaving the monster on the ground. Being full of wounds.
Joan's duplicate sent them to where their master was being taken care of by Kendrick and Eman.
They soon were reunited and Joan's duplicate soon teleported again.
Ben and Gladden soon approached the two and they talked.
"Hey, what is happening? There are no monsters in this forest but we encountered ghoul just a while back there." Ben said to Kendrick.
"We met a ghoul too! If not for master's duplicate, we are dead by now!" Kendrick said to the two of them.
"Our master is a multi-class! He was a mage then he became a Rogue then used [Heal]! Did he perhaps hides it all this time?" Eman said to the two of them, being dumbstruck.
"Yeah, maybe. We will soon find out if we ask him. But first, we should wait for him to wake up." Kendrick said to them.
The clone then flinched as a ghoul arrived. Dripping blood on its mouth.
"Protect our master," Said Kendrick who blocked his sleeping master then the Rogue then went to the front.
The other students picked up their bows while Ben and Gladden were weaponless.
Kendrick and Eman stared at the both of them with piercing looks.
Seemingly disgusted with their carelessness.
"What? We didn't know that we will live!? The bow was our last concern!" Shouted Ben.
Kendrick can only shake his head.
"That's why you two will die if you will not be rescued with our master's duplicate. You should reflect on that. Now let's set aside this, shall we? We have an enemy to attend to." Kendrick said then prepared his bow. Knocking the arrow on its side and draws the bowstring.
Preparing to fire at the enemy in case the Shadow clone was overwhelmed. Even though they prepared for the worst, the Shadow clone isn't something to be underestimated.
He conjured a dagger by his skill [Conjure dagger]. Handling the daggers in-between his fingers and throws them to the enemy.
Eight daggers were launched towards the enemy and landed on its tough skin. One on the shoulder, one on the face, one on the eye and others on its chest. Some were in the arms and biceps.
Screaming in pain, the monster grabbed the ones in its eyes. Some were grabbed and pulled while blood oozing out of its wounds.
Even though it was painful, the monster healed its wound almost instantly.
Not wasting its time, the Shadow clone jumped in the air with the use of his skill [After image]. Leaving his clone in the front of the enemy and he propelled up in the air.
Sitting on the branch of the tree up above them.
Using [Shadow cloak] while in the darkness. He was crouching like a tiger, ready to attack anytime.
[Shadow cloak]–making his body being covered with shadow. Having a small burst of movement speed and damage when attacking the enemy.
[After image]–making the Rogue turn invisible and leaving an image of a clone. Making the clone become smoke when attacked.
The enemy attacked the clone by slashing it with its claws. After its attack, it gushed out smoke and blinded his opponent. Having the chance, the clone didn't waste its time and dived downwards.
Conjuring dagger and used its skill [Reverse slash]. Aiming at the nape of the enemy while on its fours. Slashing it with his conjured dagger.
[Reverse slash]–a skill that was making a critical strike towards the enemy by gripping the dagger in reverse and slashing it with full force.
The clone dived into the smoke while knowing its position and location. It hits its nape that was so tough but with the inertia and the gravity, that made the slash greater than its original effects.
Beheading the enemy even with just a dagger. The smoke cleared out and the creature was headless. Blood gushed out of the neck of the creature and Kendrick fired his arrow to the creature. Hitting it on the chest.
"Take that! Hahaha!" Kendrick bellowed while smiling worriedly. Sweat trickled the face and he was smiling.
Immediately, the others arrived by teleportation. Ian and John, Sebastian and Mark, and last Robert and Alex. They arrived running towards the others who went hugging Kendrick and others.
"Hey, guys! You are all alive! I am very happy to see you again!" Alex said while in tears.
"Hey don't cry! You will tarnish master's dignity! We are the hunters of our village. At least be brave and harden your hearts!" Kendrick reprimanded.
Alex soon was hicking up. Wanting to stop his tears.
Just they were talking, Joan opened his eyes.
"Why are you all so loud, I am sleeping here. My dream was forcefully cut." Joan said while rubbing his head.
"Gosh, My head hurts!" Joan said to them while twitching.
"Master!" They all chorused.
