Elden Ring: Atai vows to have a perfect ending

With the help of Knox Swordsman?

In short, I got rid of the Fallen Eagle Zombie Legion that swarmed like hornets, and the Knox Swordsman did not even launch an attack. He watched me run to the other side of the continent in the underground fake starry sky.

From there you can find the entrance to the core area of ​​the "Eternal City" Noklongn - the Realm of Night.

——What a good person!

I am filled with gratitude, but what I have to deal with now is probably an extremely ferocious boss battle!

In the hot-blooded fighting series, facing oneself is an extremely classic topic, and it is also an indispensable difficulty for the protagonists on their road to growth! Naruto, Bleach, FATE... and in special effects, it is even more common, such as Tiga, Gaia, and Dragon Knight Mask, and there are countless of them.

And now, the opponent I am about to challenge is myself!

Ok?

You asked me why I took off my clothes and pants while explaining, and even put my weapons into the blessed backpack?

Well, I can only say, don't worry about the details~

After taking off everything I could from my body, even putting items like the fire pot and throwing knives into my backpack, I continued walking forward with a swagger.

The spacious and tranquil ruins before my eyes looked like an ancient Greek temple, with stone pillars standing all around. At the end of the temple there was a bust sculpture that resembled a 2.5-foot-tall prisoner.

——Oh, sorry, it seems that the prison master won the resurrection match.

Then, let’s fight! Brother Teardrop!

As if in response to the call from the bottom of my heart, a ray of light seemed to fall in the vast starry sky, or as if a drop of tear fell, and a cloud of light silver-gray smoke rose on the ground.

In a blink of an eye, a pervert who looked exactly like me, naked and wearing only a loincloth, walked out of the smoke.

Hahahaha, it’s true!

——The Replica Teardrop will completely copy the person who comes to challenge it, so in the game, this monster can be said to be the strongest monster, or the weakest monster~

——You can fight the Valkyrie in the eighth round alone, and as for the lower round, it will be like now, with bare hands, and then be chased and beaten by the ashes summoned by A-Tu.

However, I have no intention of summoning the three ghost wolves, so don't accuse me of cheating, Brother Teardrop~

"Ola!" When the other party seemed to be a little confused about his unarmed appearance, I had already rushed forward and punched directly into the face of the teardrop imitation.

——It is worthy of being the greatest masterpiece of the Knox people. The feeling of a punch is almost the same as that of a real person!

The opponent staggered and stepped back. Just as he stood firm, I raised my fist and pressed forward.

Teardrop immediately raised his fist. Did he want to fight me?

But, it’s useless!

I watched the direction of the opponent's fist, leaned down to avoid Teardrop's straight punch, and then turned the fist-raising movement into a bear-like grapple. After wrapping my arms around Teardrop's waist, I quickly got behind the opponent, then lifted him up with all my strength and fell backwards.

This is a German arch bridge fall!

——If a normal person were to receive this blow, even if he didn’t lie on the ground and call 120 for emergency assistance, he would still feel dizzy.

But what I didn't expect was that as soon as I stood up, Teardrop kicked me in the face.

I had to cross my hands in front of me to block, and at the same time I stepped back. Tear took this opportunity to regain his balance and rushed towards me.

——This action of slightly opening his arms, does this guy want to fight back, to fight back with a bridge throw?

——How could I let you succeed?

I put my arms in front of me to defend myself and kicked the teardrops that were rushing towards me.

After seeing that the opponent was repelled by me, I immediately took advantage of the victory and pursued him. I secretly gathered the rune on my legs, accelerated my pace and moved forward, aiming at the chin of my face and threw a right hook, and then quickly followed up with a left lower hook.

——These two are deadly moves in boxing. If you are not careful in guarding against them, they can cause dizziness.

As for me, I had no defense at all and took two heavy punches.

But he acted as if nothing had happened and even attacked me on the chin with his backhand, forcing me to step back.

——It seems that the Mimic Teardrop only takes on the appearance of a human, but the weaknesses of the human body are completely ineffective against it.

It's time to change your mindset.

I used the small steps in boxing to dodge several rounds of attacks from the opponent. Then I found the moment when Teardrop retracted his fist and gathered strength, stepped forward quickly, and attacked with both fists alternately.

Pegasus Meteor Fist!

Euler! Euler! Euler! Euler——

Teardrop was obviously caught off guard, but after taking a few hits, this guy actually withstood my fierce punches and fought back in the same way!

Big wood! Big wood! Big wood! Wooden big——

——Damn, the same stand, can’t break the trick, right?

But the physical strength of the Simulated Teardrop was like unlimited, and this guy must have no sense of pain! I only felt his fist getting harder and harder, and I gradually couldn't clench my fist, so I quickly pulled back.

Just because of this cowardice, Teardrop seized the opportunity.

He actually imitated my boxing steps and unexpectedly followed me.

I subconsciously punched him in the face, trying to force the tears away.

But I saw this guy's body flash and he actually slipped under my arm.

--not good!

By the time I reacted, my waist was already embraced by the hands that imitated the teardrop!

——Don’t let him lift you up!

I subconsciously hooked my left foot back and wrapped it around the opponent's left foot. At the same time, I grabbed Teardrop's hands with both hands and started twisting them hard.

I can only say that it was a good thing that my moves were not professional in themselves. After all, I was just imitating the impressions from movies and TV shows. And after Teardrop imitated it further, he even drew the tiger as a cat.

We both hesitated for a while, but Teardrop still forced me back and held me up.

At the moment I was thrown backwards, I forcibly broke away from the opponent's grip. I was just thrown out and rolled twice on the ground. Fortunately, I was not seriously injured.

In addition, I finally understood why the Nox swordsman let me come so easily.

The teardrop's learning ability should not be underestimated.

——Add to that its ability to receive bodies without feeling pain, and its advantage of being similar in appearance to a human body but actually different, I'm afraid the other party let me come here on purpose, wanting the replica teardrop to constantly imitate and learn from the faded ones who come to challenge it, and finally have the true power to become the king!

Right now, if I continue to fight, I will be the one who suffers.

Sighing, I stood up.

The Kengan competition has come to an end. From now on, let me fight alone with real weapons.

I waved my hand and summoned the Kalia Knight Suit and Night Starfire from the blessing backpack. However, the last blessing point was in front of the square guarded by the Fallen Eagle Legion, so it would take some time to get there.

And the fellow with the imitation teardrop, just like a robot, once again raised his fist and rushed towards me.

I quickly pulled away, not wanting to continue with him.

After a while, golden light descended from the sky. After feeling the real Night Starfire in my hand, I turned around, wiped the blade with blood, and swung the Night Starfire with all my strength.

Combat skill - blood slash.

As a clone, I was totally unprepared for this blow and was chopped off, collapsing on the ground.

The other person stretched out his hand towards me seemingly weakly, and then silver-grey smoke rose from his body again.

——Just one strike, and it was solved?! It seems that I did a lot of damage with my fists before, although it's not visible.

——However, it was a very exciting battle. Farewell, another me.

...Wait, I have already given my acceptance speech in my mind, why isn’t the opponent’s rune converging towards me?

Difficult, isn't it?!

I swallowed my saliva involuntarily, and then I saw a figure reappear in the silver-grey mist.
