I Can Copy Curses

"Be ready. When your Burst Mode comes to an end, so will your life."

Grey Orion's voice reached his ears when he witnessed other conditions.

Turning around, Orion focused on his clone and contemplated his next course of action.

'Will I have to sacrifice another one of my curses?'

With how strong his clone was, he knew he probably wouldn't stand a chance against him. The strength the infinite energy inside his clone provided was too much for him to handle.

That led him to once again consider using the power of Burst Mode, but he wasn't willing to sacrifice any of his curses now. He had already lost one of his strongest curses; he couldn't afford any more losses.

However, what use was saving his curses if he wasn't around to use them?

At the end, he came to a conclusion and so did his Burst Mode.

"It's time we start."

Grey Orion found control over his body back.

"So, what are you going to do? Surrender yourself? Sacrificing another one of our curses? Or a bitter fight till the end?"

Orion sighed and said,

"A bitter fight till the end."

As he said that, his right arm transformed into flames while his left one froze in frost.

Meanwhile, golden lightning began to weave around his body and form a layer of armour of pure lightning around his body.

This protected his chest and legs. His two hands were his weapons; they didn't need any protection.

At the same time, a wave of negative emotions hit him in the head. It was more intense and painful than ever since he had used four of his curses in Curse Transformation Mode. But he only gritted his teeth and endured it. He didn't let those emotions affect him—he couldn't afford that right now.

"Woo! Using three curses in Cure Transformation mode? It seems I have underestimated myself very much. Also, I was ready for another one of your sacrifices of curses but it seems you have something else in mind."

Grey Orion sneered. He was ready for another one of his sneak attacks, but he was surprised to see his original go another way.

Orion didn't say anything and silently endured the negative emotions inside his head. He had used four of his curses in Curse Transformation mode, unlike what his clone believed. Berserk Body was one of the four.

On the other hand, he had activated all his other curses and they were in standby mode, ready to be used by him at a moment's notice.

With his right hand, he condensed a lightning sword and held it in his hand. His sword, which he got from killing the third guardian, was too weak for the current situation.

"Alright, since you are prepared, Let's start this."

Condensing a lightning sword in his hand, his clone teleported and slashed the sword at him.

Orion slashed back his sword at him. He wanted to see the difference between their strengths before he could execute his plan.

As a golden sword and a grey sword collided, the ground beneath them was instantly destroyed. Orion felt his muscles aching as he bore the full brunt of his clone's attack.

"Hahaha, good."

Grey Orion laughed and increased his force even more.

As a result, Orion was thrown backward but he teleported from there midway, appeared at the back of his clone and swung his sword.

Clang!—

However, when his sword touched the back of his clone, a sound of metal colliding with metal sounded.

At the last possible moment, where his sword was about to hit his back, a film of lightning covered that part, resulting in his sword being blocked.

Seeing that, Orion quickly teleported back and at the exact moment, huge ice spears grew out of his clone's back. If he were even a second late in retreating, those ice spears would have penetrated his body.

"What are you trying to achieve here? You know you won't be able to defeat me," Grey Orion asked, looking at Orion.

Orion smiled mysteriously. "Can't you guess? You are me after all."

Grey Orion frowned and didn't think about anything. Since he would need to exhaust Orion physically and mentally, he would focus on that.

"You are weak like the rest of them." He shook his head in pity and swung his sword at his side randomly.

Seeing that, Orion quickly held his own sword in defence position before his clone teleported in front of him.

Their swords collided and unlike last time, Orion was immediately blown away.

But as his body was in mid-air and blasting through the ground, Grey Orion appeared again and swung his sword.

Orion's eyes could only see the sky and the ground he was tumbling through. He quickly teleported himself to the sky when his eyes caught sight of it, thereby dodging his clone's attack.

Up there, he quickly conjured about a hundred ice spears and rained them down towards his clone on the ground.

The clone sneered, seeing that, and only punched the incoming spears.

A shockwave was released from that punch that shattered all the incoming spears and sent them back towards Orion.

At the same time, his own right hand burst into grey flames and above Orion, a sun appeared.

Orion cursed, almost seeing the size of the sun. It was almost like the big island they were on, burning with white, greyish flames.

He quickly teleported to the ground, dodging the shattered ice fragments and looked at Grey Orion.

"You are going to kill them all." He shouted at him, and sweat covered his whole face due to the intent heat.

"Do you think I care?" His clone sneered at him.

Orion frowned.

"I know I care and you also do."

Grey Orion gritted his teeth at his words.

"Yeah, I care about them. I cared about every one of them since I am literally you. But some things require the toughest of choices, and I won't hesitate to make them, just like you didn't hesitate before you killed me."

Orion frowned and looked towards Astral and others. He only saw despair in their eyes.

The clones surprisingly stopped attacking them, which gave them a moment of respite but this moment of calmness for them had turned into nothing but their darkest nightmare.

"Orion, can you do anything about that?" Erick asked, looking at the sky.

Orion didn't say anything, still thinking about how to safely defuse the sun that was slowly approaching them. If he were alone, he could escape through teleportation, but he wasn't.

Elyn walked over to Orion and Erick. Astral's limit time was over, and he was barely holding his own against his clone. Now that his clone had stopped attacking, he lay against the tree as his family members attended to his injuries.

"I heard what you two were talking about a moment ago about how the clone would cease to exist if the original were to die," Elyn said as soon as she came in front of Orion.

Orion's mood became worse as she heard her.

"So?"

Elyn narrowed her eyes at him.

"What if we kill you? Then wouldn't your clone die too and at that time that freaking black sun would slowly dissipate into nothingness?"

However, the moment she finished speaking, a lightning sword was placed beside her neck as Orion appeared behind her.

"Before you do that, I will make sure your head rolls first."
