Chapter 12 Cloning everything 100% perfectly
Delete all four Trisses first!
Then!
Summon new Trisses:
Triss 1: 5% (with Skill LV.1)
Triss 2: 100% (with Skill LV.20)
Triss 3: 100% (with Skill LV.40)
Triss 4: 500% (with Skill LV.500)
Triss 5: 500% (with Skill LV.500)
Triss 6: 5% (with Skill LV.500)
Triss 7: 500% (with Skill LV.500)
Poof, poof, poof!
Checked the total maximum power used for [Doppelganger] LV.500:
2210% out of 2500%.
Then, used [Perfect Shapeshift]:
Triss 1: [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.100
Triss 2: [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.100
Triss 3: [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.99
Triss 4: [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.10
Triss 5: [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.100
Triss 6: [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.500
Triss 7: [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.500
Geng: HP-6
Flop, flop, flop, flop!
There it is! Just like what happened with the first two doppelgangers. The maximum power left for my [Doppelganger] dropped from 2210% to just 600%!
That means Triss 1, 2, 5, 6, and 7, with [Perfect Shapeshift] at LV.100 or 500, made those fake Trisses "become" real Trisses—completely separate entities! It's like the fake bodies were erased or vanished entirely.
But for those using [Perfect Shapeshift] below LV.100—like Triss 3 and 4—they're still just fake bodies that changed appearance! And when they took off their clothes, the same logic from earlier applied: those clothes count as another doppelganger, just with different stats.
Triss 3, created at 100%, used [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.99, which "pulls" 90% of the real Triss's abilities, making her effectively 190% strong!
Triss 4, created at 500%, used [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.10, which pulls 10% of the real Triss's abilities, making her 510% strong, as expected.
Alright, now let's look at the other five bodies!! The thing I'm most excited about? Yup, you guessed it, everyone—the clothes! That's right, the clothes they took off and piled up! They've become real clothes!!! No MP needed to maintain them at all!
Triss 1 (5%), Triss 2 (100%), and Triss 5 (500%), transformed with [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.100, have completely become Triss, age 10, LV.18, for real. And I'm using those bodies right now! Plus, all the items on them belong to her too!
Geng: HP-6
Yup, exactly!
I had Triss 1, 2, and 5 dig into their pants pockets and pull out a crumpled sandwich and three 1-Zen coins from each. All three bodies together gave me three crumpled sandwiches and 9 Zen!!!
"Heh heh heh! Hahaha!!!" x4
My real self and the three Triss bodies burst out laughing in unison.
This is awesome! With this, I can clone everything 100% perfectly—even memories and knowledge! (Though I'll try not to read them unless I have to; it's too much clutter for my brain.) Hmm, but if I had to guess, I probably can't clone otherworlders, otherworlder items, or otherworlder powers, right? Even when I copy and shapeshift myself, it's just the physical body of someone from this world…
Oh, but here's the disappointing yet kinda cool part: no matter how strong or weak the original doppelganger body was, [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.100 turns it into Triss LV.18, with no extra bonuses or anything. Even though the skill says it pulls 100% of the target's abilities at LV.100! So, it's like fake bodies of the same tier are stronger with [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.10-99 than LV.100.
But it makes sense… LV.100 literally makes you become something else, so the fake body gets destroyed or vanishes without carrying over any stats.
And finally, Triss 6 and 7…
My LV.500 skill has something super interesting! In terms of strength %, Triss 6 is 504%, and Triss 7 is 900%!? To put it simply, [Perfect Shapeshift] LV.500 not only pulls 500% of the real Triss's stats but also adds 80% of the fake Triss's stats!? (How do you even calculate that!?)
And that's not all!
The shirt with 1 defense normally? For Triss 6, it's 5 defense, and for Triss 7, it's 9! Plus, the fabric's texture and feel are way better—super durable, even if it looks as crappy as the original!
This is cheat-level cloning with boosted stats!
And finally, the crumpled sandwich and three 1-Zen coins in both of their pockets…
Yup, just the same crumpled sandwich and 1-Zen coins…
Kinda disappointing, but whatever—this is already amazing!! Time for Operation Money Printer!!!!!
Alright, testing's done! Strip all the stuff off, pile it up, and toss it into [Item Box], Box 1!
Then delete all the Triss bodies… Wait.
Damn it… How do I get rid of them!? Right now, those five bodies have become Triss—or rather, me! Completely!
Tried having Triss 1 pinch Triss 2's cheek!
"Ow!"
Triss 2 yelped in pain…
Noooo! Even if their thoughts and feelings belong to Triss 2 and aren't shared with me, I can't just kill bodies that have their own consciousness!!
"I don't wanna die!"
"Don't wanna die either!"
"I don't wanna die, damn it!"
Ugh, I had the Triss that's me speak the true feelings of Triss (me) from the heart, and yup, that's how it is…
I totally forgot to think about this!! Another screw-up, huh!?
And then, out of nowhere, that creepy scene from Chapter 10 happened again! I'm losing control of that body's thoughts!?
"Huh!? Whoa… Something's weird here!"
Suddenly, that body's thoughts split off from my real self's thoughts!!!
Nooooooooo!!! Even if it's a fake body, NO!
Damn it, I'm screwed! The fake (real) body doesn't want to be violated either!! It's not just because it'd creep me out—I can handle my own feelings. But Miss Melt, who's always worried about me, would get mocked so bad by those 99 other goddesses! How do I save this fake body discreetly!?
Geng: HP-6 … HP+3
