"Equip Ronin Job ss!" Joan shouted at them.


    "Oh geez," Joan said as he felt troubled.


    It was a great battle to confront this person as they were both equal. There was also a possibility that Joan original was stronger by few leaps of power due to him being corrupted. However, he was not in his sharpest mind currently and was battling them in pure rage.


    Thinking that his skill-wielding capability will be lowered if it was the case but it was only Joan duplicate''s hunch and it wille to lightter on if it was true. The former was his wish though, that he was not in his best mind to face him.


    "Equip Ronin Job ss," Joan duplicate said calmly.


    [Conjure katana]


    Both of them shouted at the same time.. Holding their swords with their greatest grip. Gritting their teeth too for a battle they will face head-on.


    Now that the two equipped their job sses, they dashed together confronting each other. Joan shouted in pure rage while Joan duplicate narrowed his eyes. Focused his mind to the limits and sharpened his re at Joan. With his enemy''s eyes were glowing in red, his was cold andposed. Inhaling cold air then slowly releasing from his mouth.


    Joan dashed and he hurled the dust. Joan duplicate approached him and prepared to draw his sword. Joan too prepared to sh him. In a sh, the two used their skills [Draw sh]. Streaks of lights appeared after their swords sh. Sparks were made in a sh and they sheathed their swords.


    The two of them made a shallow wound on their shoulders. A single sh was made and the two of them bled on the process.


    It was due to their hastiness that they forgot to use their armour. The two of them thought that it would be okay to reserve the armour just in case. But their enemies were both their equals. Making them turn serious. Joan duplicate bit his lips as he felt that what he wished was not the reality after all. Joan bears the sharpness of his sane and sober mind. It was just fueled by anger and it made him stronger than before. With an intent to kill the two of them. Even Isaias will not be spared in his wrath. Wanting Joan duplicate to end him quickly.


    As the two of them realized how serious their enemies were, they used their skills [Conjure armour]. Both at the same time were smiling at each other.


    "Well, well, I thought that I will be facing a dumb Joan. But here we are facing a tough one. Prepare yourself original! I will defeat you!" Joan duplicate then shouted with all he got and dashed towards him.


    His de was on his side held with both his hands and Joan original was holding his katana in his front. Vertical on his stand and was held tight. Ready to sh anytime with him. Looking at his enemy, he didn''t respond to any of his remarks. Only smirked at him as he didn''t recognise him in the first ce. Making Joan question him in his mind about what he was talking about.


    Joan duplicate dashed towards him and in an instant, Joan dashed towards him. In moment''s notice, their swords shed. Sparks flung left and right as their swords shed. Joan and duplicate didn''t waste any of their strength for unnecessary movements. Strength and speed were disyed with their prowess.


    Joan shed with a double diagonal sh, making Joan duplicate to block left and right with his sword. Joan duplicate then ducked and made a rising diagonal sh. Joan ducked too as fast as he could. In an instant, Joan''s helmet was shed but it just brushed past it. A spark flew by and Joan grinned. Joan duplicate''s sh failed and so he was delighted by it. Making him grin in the process.


    Just as he saw that his sh failed, he immediately retreated by making a step back. He made his attempt to evade Joan''s next possible attack to him. Even more so, Joan didn''t waste the precious chance for dealing a number with him. Just as he moved his feet, he was pierced with Joan''s reddish eyes. A re ready to kill anytime without hesitation. A grin was on the side of his mouth. Making Joan grit his teeth.


    [Multi sh]


    Joan used the skill towards Joan duplicate. Joan duplicate can only smile wryly on his demeanour.


    [Multi sh]


    Joan duplicate also used the skill. Making them sh with each other''s swords.


    ng! ng! Ping!


    All happened in a sh. Isaias can only see their after image, their movements were very fast to his eyes to see. Due to the skill''s burst of speed, their shing swords were only what Isaias can see.


    [Hilt trust]


    Joan dashed towards Joan duplicate then used the skill. Hitting him with the hilt of the sword while being unsheathed. Joan duplicate saw the skill and recognized it. He immediately stepped back but Joan was faster as he used the skill firsthand.


    [Hilt trust]–a skill of Ronin that involves the katana to be in the sheath. Drawing the sword and hitting the enemy on the sr plexus with the hilt of the sword. Making the enemy stunned for several seconds that depends on the damage of the skill. Greater damage means a longer duration of the stun. There will be a small dash upon using the skill for a higher hit rate chance of the skill.


    Upon his trust, Joan duplicate was shocked and perplexed. It was a skill of master rank Ronins. Thus making him jerk a bit. But still, he stopped his movements and stand straight. Waited for the hilt to hit him but this time around, he smiled.


    Joan trusted his hilt towards him and then Joan was hit in his stomach. Joan duplicate''s air inside his lungs left him. Still, he smiled afterwards, making Joan wonder why. To his surprise, Joan duplicate blocked his sword''s hilt with his sword handle. A small mishap on the sword handle angle will make him stagger to the pain in the sr plexus. This skill was very devastating to the enemy. It can cause extreme pain that will make you hinder breathing.


    Just as Joan saw that he was outsmarted, he immediately retreated, Joan duplicate smirked as he realized that this Joan in his front knew the skill but not the original''s battle instinct.


    It would be a very hard battle to win if Joan''s battle instinct was there with him. Luckily, he has those characteristics as he was a perfect clone. Thinking about it, Joan duplicate smirked.


    [elerate]


    Joan duplicate used the skill to further increase his movement speed and attack speed. He dashed towards Joan and while his sword was still on his sheath, he draws it and used the skill [Draw sh]. With the help of [elerate], his [Draw sh] was faster than normal.


    But Joan was not also just standing there to be shed. He also used the skill [elerate] and then used his skill [Multi sh]. With its cooldown has been reset, he used the skill without problems. With two skills shed, it will be a hard battle to be fought.


    Joan duplicate shed Joan with his draw sh while Joan used multi sh on him and shed him several times. The draw sh made a sessful hit on Joan as it has the fastest burst of speedpared to multi sh.


    Swish!


    Joan duplicate then tried to block all his multi sh. With iting his way, he blocked one sh with his sword. It was so fast that he managed to block a sh aimed at his neck.


    ''Damn, this fe sure wanted me dead.'' He muttered in his mind.


    Another sh was made but Joan duplicate''s [Multi sh] was avable for the taking.


    [Multi sh]


    Both of them shed and flickered on the process.


    Prrriiiinngggg!!!


    Their swords sparked on the process that sent a chill on Isaias'' spine. Thinking that these two were not something of the ordinary.


    Ping! Ping! ng! Ping! Ping!
