I Can Copy Curses

Standing up, Grey Orion looked at Orion with a sneer.

"You wasted Electrostatic Disruption just like that? Just so you could catch me off guard, you used one of your strongest and most versatile curses in Burst Mode? Hahaha, but the results must have disappointed you, haven't they?"

Grey Orion laughed, feeling very pleased that he made the original waste his curse of Electrostatic Disruption. But he felt a tinge of sadness, considering he was Orion too, and Electrostatic Disruption was one of the starting curses that had been with him since the beginning.

Moreover, he would also lose that curse permanently when the effect of Burst Mode wore off, and the worst thing was that he couldn't activate his Electrostatic Disruption now that it was in Burst Mode of the original. In a way, he had already lost that curse.

On the other side, Orion was feeling very sad too. It was his day-to-day curse, and he was very reliant on it. But it would be gone in a few minutes.

The sadness didn't come from the fact that he would lose the curse permanently. Instead, it was because he had wasted the potential of the curse on Grey Orion, thinking he would end him by using the curse in Burst Mode. But it turned out that his clone could never die in this world.

Also, the few minutes of time he had left in the Burst Mode would really be wasted if he couldn't kill Grey Orion, whom he believed he really couldn't.

"It's time you die."

He suddenly heard Grey Orion's voice and saw him teleport in front of him. But he had also been prepared the whole time and used the strength of the Electrostatic Disruption to stop his movement altogether.

He was frozen in space just like Grey Orion had frozen Astral and Elyn, but the force binding Grey Orion was many times stronger than theirs.

"Ah, I forgot. You are nearly invincible for the ten minutes you have in Burst Mode."

Grey Orion sneered at Orion once again.

Orion frowned and contemplated something before he looked at him.

"You want to kill me?"

A crazed look appeared on Grey Orion's face as he heard him.

"Of course. Do you think I will spare you after you almost killed me?"

Orion frowned again and asked:

"Did you forget that if I die, you will also cease to exist?"

Grey Orion became silent. He had almost forgotten about this because of the anger he felt for Orion's decisive attempt to kill him.

Orion, seeing that he had calmed down, asked:

"Why don't we join hands?"

"Join hands?" Grey Orion laughed like a madman. "Hahahahaha, you almost killed me, and you expect me to join hands with you?"

Orion sighed.

"It was you who didn't give me any choice."

Grey Orion shook his head.

"Do you know what is going through my head right now? I want to kill you. I want to kill you. I want to kill you. These words have been echoing inside me like a trumpet, and it won't stop until I do just that."

Orion looked him straight in the eye.

"You will die too."

Grey Orion's face became ugly.

"That's the hesitation I am feeling. If only it wasn't like that. If only I was born as a different entity in your world."

However, at that moment, a voice rang inside his head.

'You can do what you want.'

'WHO?' Grey Orion almost lost it when he heard that voice.

'It doesn't matter who I am. But I can tell you, you can successfully do what you want.'

Grey Orion didn't reply and contemplated. It was his first time hearing someone speak directly inside his head in this world, so he speculated that the one who spoke just now must be the one who had summoned the originals here.

But was what he said true?

'How? Tell me.' He couldn't resist asking that. The temptation of having his own body and meeting with his mother and sister transcended his sense of alertness to that being.

'Did you forget your origin?' The voice sounded once again.

'My origin? Chaos?' He thought.

He was entirely made up of the chaos energy of this world, and it was because of this reason that he was much stronger than Orion. Unlike the human body of the original, his chaos body didn't have any limits and could efficiently utilise the infinite energy of this world and use Orion's curses to the best of his abilities.

But he couldn't understand what that had to do with his goal.

'Yes. Chaos is a very high-level energy, stronger than mana and superior to divine energy. For ages, no one had ever successfully utilised that power, but now look at that—there are two—well, technically one who is wielding that power.'

Grey Orion was surprised to know that there had been none beside them who had used the power of curses, but thinking about it, he felt that it was as it should be. Using chaos energy meant using curses, which only he and his original could do.

'So, how do I do what I want?'

'It's simple. Wear him down and exhaust him mentally and physically, then turn your body into chaos and enter inside him.'

'What do you mean by turning into chaos?'

'You can't possess his body physically since you have to kill him for that, but you can't do that. So, the only option you have is to turn your body into chaos energy, enter his body, and take control.'

'And how do I do that?'

'That's for you to figure out. A piece of advice—you are the culmination of chaos energy, so you just have to return to your source form.'

'At least give me some ideas.'

The voice didn't reply.

'It's gone.'

"So, what have you decided?"

Another voice sounded, but that was in his ear.

It was Orion's voice. He saw that his clone had been contemplating hard about something, so he remained silent and let him do that.

"Yeah, I have indeed come to a decision."

Orion locked eyes with him and asked:

"What is that?"

Grey Orion laughed at him and said,

"To kill you."

Orion frowned.

"You know it won't result in anything."

Grey Orion shook his head.

"Look around for a moment."

Orion frowned and turned to see the battlefield, but what he saw shocked him. Hundreds of human corpses lay there on the sands of the desert, while many were on the outskirts of the forests.

Almost all humans that had come here had lost their lives to their clones, and the only ones remaining were the members of the seven magi families, Hyperion Tower, and that Zenithan guy. They were still relentlessly fighting with their clones.

"Do you like the scene?" Grey Orion asked.

Orion clenched his fists as he saw the corpses of so many people. They came from all parts of the world for the elusive fruits, yet what they got was eternal peace.

"Soon, the others will die. All these clones are using chaos instead of mana, which is infinite here, so the rest of them will die soon."

Orion looked at Astral, Erick, and the others, noting the exhaustion on their faces. In this place of infinite chaos, there was a lack of mana, quite the opposite of the outside world. They had to rely on mana crystals for recovery, but those could only sustain them for so long.

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