Chapter 232: Fourth Child of Calamity II
[Somewhere]
Just as he asked this, the other copy of himself suddenly talked
"You could call me fake since I'm just a copy of your persona of your wants" he said
"Alright! Let me add another question... . .why did you do this?' asked Kaido as he grew a bit angry form being toyed around by this so called perfect world that made him feel the life full of joy
But the question that was returned to him, suddenly broke his anger
"But! Isn't this what you wanted?"
As this was asked of him, Kaido in turn looked towards Ayame's grave as he felt the feeling of longing
"This world was meant for Espers, the one world you always sought for, a world where Espers are regarded not as dangerous but a respectable being like a normal human" added by the fake Kaido
"The world only meant for you"
After hearing that Kaido slowly shook his head as he put up another question
"This world... . . It's my world isn't it?"
"Absolutely"
"The people I met in the past was this body's own memory?"
"Exactly"
"Meaning the world where I am now with those three calamities, isn't my world"
"Of course"
"This girl... Ayame... . . Was the girl I loved and liked right?"
"Yes, apparently your heart supposed to belong only to her"
Hearing that Kaido became even more curious
"Supposed?"
"Yup! Currently on your state of actual time, your head belong to two people each a girl from different world"
Hearing that Kaido suddenly walked up to him as he asked
"Are you saying that my body's memory also somehow in someway fell in love with someone from this other world?" He asked loudly
"Well yeah, the reason why is because you felt Ayame in her, at one point you could see her in the woman's silhoutte, at some point your heart surely fell in love but wouldn't recognize it cause of your feelings from that girl in the grave"
"This is... . ."
"Crazy? but it's true"
With that Kaido for some reason couldn't held it in as he begun to laugh
"Tell me... . . Will I remember everything that happened here?"
"Both yes and no since I can only retrieve a fragment of your memory, but surely you will recover after some kind of memorial process" said the fake Kaido as he circled the him
"He... Hehehehahahaha! I see... . . So what's your aim? You haven't told me yet about your aim" stated Kaido as he felt a dangerous presence from the fake copy of himself
"Hoh? Your quick-witted I admire how you suddenly get over these feelings I made you feel, but can you show a little bit of consideration? I obviously put up a lot of work just to fabricate this fake world for you" said the fake Kaido
"No need, I have no need to show some kind of emotions from this fake world, and since you created this world to my liking, I can already guess that the reality was cruel and somehow different, am I right?" Asked Kaido as he started cracking his bones as if readying himself for a fight
"Your smart"
At those word Kaido suddenly sent boulders after boulders towards the fake him, but for some reason the fake him stood there unscathed from those crashes
"I see that this attacks don't do damage to you, are you some kind of an entity? Why are you messing with my brain? You should know I hate people who toys me" growled Kaido as he sent another huge boulder 20x the size that the previous boulder he sent
But nonetheless the fake Kaido still appeared beside him
"You should know that doing that will be meaningless right? After all the terrain and me are just something made up from the deepest wants and desire you wanted, meaning the foreign entity here is you" said the fake Kaido
With a quick reaction Kaido immediately held out his hand to his side and took a hold of his neck as he put the fake copy of himself into a choke hold
"Choking me is useless since I don't need air to breath, you and me are the same person, as long as your alive, I'm alive so everything that your doing just to kill me is useless" scowled by the fake Kaido
Just as he said that, the fake Kaido suddenly disappeared from his grip and reappeared behind him
"I am you, you are me... . . It's as simple as that"
Hearing that Kaido finally backed down as he realized that he can't kill this fake copy of himself and only wish for it's extermination
"Let me guess, by showing me all this things that I wanted, you intend to fulfill my wants from this and make me satisfied right?" Asks Kaido
"Yup!"
"After that I would be willing so much to follow that woman through and die together with her in this fake world right?"
"Yes!"
"After that you intend to take over my body and cause any kind of destruction upon the world as if it was your own, but it won't be easy cause your going to be pinned down by three beings who have surpassed these trials that you implemented in me and I presume that such method was done to them the exact thing that your doing to me right?"
"....."
When Kaido ask that, the fake copy of himself suddenly went silent as if Kaido actually hit the mark
"You intend to take over my body and use me, but I won't let you, since my body is my own, you... . . Stay out of this, it's my life my body, if you can't accept this then we have a problem here right?" Asked Kaido
Hearing that the fake copy simply took a short walk as he circled some of the tombstone as he said
"Your sure about that? I know for sure you have figured out that I can't win against you in your own domain, your way of thinking and your though process is quite dangerous, but I'm telling you as for your own good, if you go through this... . . You will die" said the fake Kaido
"I'm fully aware that I'm going to die, all of us are going to end up in that state in one point or another, but by then my body is my own" said Kaido
After that exchange both the fake copy and the original Kaido, laughed togather as if two friends meeting with each other on a holiday
After a good laugh that seemed evil by the way they acted it out, the fake Kaido suddenly talked
"So you intend to take in the darkness itself? Have you given up on light attribute?"
"Given up? More like were incompatible in some ways more than one" said Kaido
"I see... . . So you felt like your more compatible with me?"
"Not compatible but more like you'll be quite useful to me"
"Useful... . . I see so you treat me as a tool"
"Of course, as long as you serve your purpose and as long as I win, your just a tool that will make me powerful through and through" said Kaido
Hearing that the fake Kaido once again gave him a hysterical laugh as he held up his hair and stared at the original Kaido
"By the way when you succeed in going back to your world and bring the whole organization down, are you doing it for justice?" Asked by the fake Kaido
Hearing that Kaido suddenly walked up towards him and smiled evilly
"Justice? Heck with that! What justice ever done to me? I'm doing this cause I want to, if I take down that organization, I'm pretty sure that some government people will try to protect it and by then I'll be regarded as a dangerous person in that world with a large bounty on my head" said Kaido
After that he turned around and talked
"If your asking me if I'm afraid then I'm sorry but all I feel is excitement, I just wanted to see their faces on how they grovel at my feet begging for their lives only to realize it was futile"
At that mention Kaido suddenly looked out unto the whole view of the city and spread out his arm
"This world, I'll shape the world into my own liking a world which accepted Espers like me, a world where the government is under my thumb, and if I'm bored of all of this... Then I could just make a makeshift problem"
Hearing that the fake Kaido seemed swept up by the moment as he smiled and laughed beside him
"Your crazy! Your gonna make the whole world be your enemy, whether the normal people or the Espers, your literally making them hate you" said the fake copy with a sly grin
"Hate me? They do just that if they can harm me, if they try to take dirty means to get to me, then they should know that I'll be willing to do that too, they're not fighting a hero of Justice, they're fighting villain who can do what they do"
With that he once again came forward and stared down at the humans from below
"As long as the world satisfies me then I won't do a thing and even live out modestly, but if I'm through and bored of all of this then they can't blame me if I suddenly went on a mass destructive killing spree just to relieve my boredom"
"Your... . . Your treating the world as if it's your playground"
"That's the benefit of being the top of the food chain, you fear nothing"
Hearing all of this the fake Kaido felt something as if wanting to see the world that he will create himself
"I see... . . You! Your rotten to the core, the scariest thing other than people who do dirty jobs are the people who manipulate others to do their bidding, the people who are cunning, cause in the world of darkness those people are mostly the masterminds... . . Are you one of them?" Asked by the fake Kaido
"I'll try, but don't put too much faith in me" replied Kaido
"I see... . . Then I'll leave it all to you"
"Is that so? Then perhaps I'll be reborn as a child of calamity? What's the trial all about?" Asked Kaido as he felt that the trial was useless
"The trial was supposed to play with your emotions, showing you what your heart desires that was so real that it will make you acknowledge it as a reality and only to find it in the end as a fake"
"....."
"Can you imagine the sorrow those people will feel when they realize that what they experienced was fake? By that time people will become emotionally unstable this makes it easier for us to take over causing such phenomena such as rampage"
"....."
"You on the other hand protected your mind well by questioning things all the way, but at some point you almost fell for the illusion by stating that you feel comfortable right?"
Hearing that Kaido was speechless as this thing was a fact
"But either way you passed after all only few people have such high resistance to mental attack such as you, a guy from another world... . . Just show me how you will shape the world" said by the fake Kaido as black wild Mana suddenly crept out of him and assaulted Kaido body as if forcing its way in
"Don't worry! I'm just readjusting your body composition to be compatible with slight magic so you won't die"
Soon Kaido's bones started cracking as his once skin which was a slight brownish suddenly turned pale, his red eyes seemed slightly tinted with black, and his hair which has a tinge of white due to stress suddenly hued with pure blackness
His aura also changed from something dangerous to suddenly ominous aura that can kill people with low mental resistance
Slowly but surely he was changing, but the process was so painful that Kaido eventually knelt down in pain
He could feel every muscles in his body being reformed as it goes into repeated destruction and regeneration, soon he started spewing out blood not only to his mouth but also to every pore in his body such as eyes, ears, skin, fingers and many more
Soon at the end of the process his vision suddenly went dark with few words resounded into the darkness
"I'll leave it all to you"
With that everything went silent
**********
[Black Pool, Demon Continent]
Rising up towards the surface Kaido who was finally reformed and reconstructed to be compatible with darkness attribute slowly but surely opened his eyes causing his red eyes to flash bright from the darkness that was surrounding him
With his newly black aura, and figure as if reborn, he finally managed to gain additional strength and some fragments of his memory, whole also didn't know just how much he has grown
As he rose up from the pool, a smile suddenly crept at the corner of his lips as he said
"I'm back
