137: Encountering Ethan Frost's Clone

Just then, a series of notifications popped up in front of Evan, issued by the spirit of the monster tower.

"The third challenge of the trial has been completed!" the notifications read. "You may now proceed to the fourth challenge or ascend directly to the 7th floor of the tower."

Just then, a portal appeared in the middle of the arena.

Evan wasted no time and stepped into the portal, transporting himself back to the backroom, where he readied himself to take on the fourth ancestor by abusing the power of his amulet to recover his strength and stamina. He pushed open the bright white door with red stripes and stepped into the arena, where the next challenger awaited him.

'He seems awfully familiar.' 

Evan couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity with the opponent that stood before him in the arena. Although his features were slightly immature, highlighting his young age, Evan could recognize him immediately.
