[The Boss Annihilation Battle is Up, LOL]
Author: Oh Wow C
(Screen shot of a score showing 1:2)
In the end, CO wins, right?
From the moment I lost in the brawl, it was set that CO would win no matter how much Baekseol struggles, LOL.
Round 2, they won using advantageous terrain and penalties, but in the end, they got wrecked in Round 3, haha.
Even if they get lucky and win in the Boss Annihilation Battle, they’ll probably get stomped again in the relay battle, haha.

─Yeah, no, yeah, no, yeah, no, yeah, no.
─CO! CO! CO! CO! CO! CO!
─As expected, Choco can’t win, right?
└So, what about Death in Round 2?
└In Rounds 1 and 3, Choco won, though.
└Fact: The one who ultimately wins is CO.
└Yep, Baekseol will now smash in Rounds 4 and 5, just wait and see.
└LOL
─Choco already has 3 victories… It’s indescribable.
└Already stacking karma.
└For real, it’s not even over yet, why are we counting our chickens?
└? Is it not over?
└This game busted out when they already lost Round 1, what’s up with that, LOL, what a mess.
└LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO
─So why isn’t Lily showing up?!
└For real, Lily, turn on the broadcast;
└I want to see Lily.
└Lily is next to me right now, so stop looking for her, please;;
└She’s watching the broadcast with me, why do you keep bothering me?
└Geez.
─Lily is in the stadium, I’m betting everything on it.
└Lol, dumb.
└This guy has been acting like this from the start.
└No, I’m serious;;
└So what Boss monster shows up?
[?????? Damn, “Lily” appears as a Boss LOL]

The Hungry Copycat appeared as a monster in the Boss Annihilation Battle, but Lily took it down.
Looks like it’s measured at the lower level, like the expected lower level monster, but doesn’t this mean Lily remembers the Copycat?

─Whoa.
─What the hell, LOL.
└Difficulty jumped hugely, LOL.
└Damn, you mean the one who copied Lily showed up? Is this real?
└A lower level (actually defeated an upper level too).
└??????
─Wait, I’ve been praying for Lily to show up, and she really did.
└For real, LOL.
└Here she is (as a Boss).
└I can’t take that down; how would I take down Lily?
└No way, right? That Copy wouldn’t still exist, would it?
└“No way” is what gets people…
└Fact: If they bring in the one who copied Lily, everyone there is done for.
└It shouldn’t be that extreme; at that time, Lily hadn’t even advanced, you know.
└Is that so?
└Yeah, Lily did bleed while taking it down, but at the time, she wasn’t that strong. It should be feasible.
└We’ll see, haha.
“Hey… isn’t that it?”
The entrance to the eerie village.
Choco gripped her dual spear tightly and turned to the side.
I tightly gripped my double spear and turned to the side.
‘That thing,’ known better by no one than Leiter and the Sky.
Leiter instinctively laid cubes for the entire team and nodded heavily.
“I think that’s right. It’s the one we fought with Lady Lily.”
“Shit.”
The Hungry Copycat.
It’s the Low-class World Boss that Lily took down upon Leo’s request in a hidden dungeon, and it fought by copying Lily.
With the rankers’ levels and skills rising, taking down a Low-class World Boss shouldn’t be difficult, but the problem is Lily.
It was a boss that they barely managed to defeat just before regular Lily died.
The video of that battle drew quite a bit of attention, spreading across various communities and broadcasters.
“…It’s still the same now.”
The girl was flipping through a book with a static expression.
It’s not yet the appearance of Lily.
“If we hit it quickly, can’t we kill it before it becomes Lady Lily?”
“That’s a bit… No, it might not even turn into Lady Lily in the first place. There’s no Lady Lily here.”
“A Copycat duplicates the abilities and body of living beings it has seen in its lifetime. Since we met Lady Lily, it’s almost certain.”
“…Hmm.”
“And above all, it seems likely to appear.”
‘If it’s Deoen.’
“……”
Choco was deep in thought.
In a boss annihilation battle, life is unlimited.
If you die, you respawn after 3 minutes, and if you take it down faster than the opponent, you win.
The opponent is likely casting spells while we’re pondering this.
Ultimately, time is of the essence, so we need to move quickly.
“First, Sky.”
“Okay.”
“You shoot. Let’s see how it reacts.”
“Got it.”
As Sky extended his hand, blue magical arrows began to form around him.
A battle mage shooting arrows without using a bow.
As the arrows readied to be shot, the girl flipping through the book looked over.
“What are you looking at?”
Fwoosh!
Five arrows were shot.
And they pierced through.
“Huh?”
“Wait?”
“…?”
The girl, bleeding profusely, collapsed to the ground.
The fallen girl trembled as if an electric current was flowing through her.
“What? Is that it? Should I finish it like this…”
“Wait. Something’s off.”
There’s no way this could end so simply.
It was clearly called a Low-class World Boss; there’s no way it would die from a few magical arrows—
“Block it!”
The magical arrows were incoming.
Not blue but arrows bursting with a sinister red energy.
As dozens of arrows poured toward the entire team, Leiter spread his cubes wide to block the arrows.
Crash!
“…Wait, is this going to break?”
“It’s stronger than mine?”
Sky chuckled nervously.
He chuckled.
The arrow shot by Sky was multiple times stronger and fiercely pierced through the cube’s shield as if it had a will of its own.
In the meantime, the girl sprang up, spilling red energy.
Her clothes were soaked with blood, but it seemed her wounds had completely healed as she flipped through the spell book again.
Crackle…!
Dozens of magical arrows were generated behind the girl.
“…If I use my skills wrong, I feel like it’ll all get copied.”
“I can’t just not use them. I’ll clear the path.”
Asa smashed the shield with a thud and took a charging stance.
Choco readied to launch her spear, while Gunner and Sky prepared their ranged attacks.
And finally, as Leiter’s wall was about to completely shatter…
“Here I go!”
“…!”
Boom!!!
Asa’s charge knocked the girl up high into the sky.
In that instant, the connection of the magical arrows broke, causing them all to disappear.
The girl widened her eyes in surprise, and in that moment, Gunner’s shots and arrows pierced her once more.
Meanwhile, Choco had already leaped into the air and launched her spear.
“Die.”
‘Twin Spear Technique ─ Golden Explosion.’
A golden flash pierced the girl’s heart.
Despite the hit, she instantly regenerated but unleashed a golden explosion in return.
A technique that creates an explosion of light upon hitting an enemy.
The girl burst forth as regeneration happened simultaneously.
She keeps bursting. It just doesn’t end.
“What’s going on! Why won’t it stop?!”
“Keep shooting! The area is shrinking!”
The area that was surely regenerating was indeed reducing.
It looked like she was still recovering, but it seemed the recovery was slowing down.
But why did it feel like she wouldn’t die?
‘Why do I feel like I won’t die?’
Bang! Ta-a─ Tee-ing~!
“…Crazy.”
“Shield?”
A dark red shield materialized around the girl. The shield was covered by a red cube’s barrier.
Blocking Gunner and Sky’s shots, the girl reached out and created something.
A pair of twin spears stained red.
The twin spears erupted with a loud noise, bursting into a red flash.
‘Golden Explosion?!’
“Leiter!”
“I got it!”
Leiter swiftly moved the cube to direct it toward the team’s ranged dealers.
Boom! Gunner and Sky barely escaped death.
Meanwhile, Asa, who hadn’t received a single cube, exploded in a red blast and fell into a near-death state.
Though Asa was left like a rag, he immediately restored all his health through ‘Knight Resurrection.’
“…Can you see the way? Even without Lady Lily, this boss is strong.”
“……”
Indeed, this ‘Hungry Copycat’ is strong.
This “Hungry Copycat” is strong.
Almost immortal physical abilities play a part, but the real problem is her ability to haphazardly use techniques from various classes.
Like a one-woman army, she can handle every position of a Boss Monster.
To kill her, you need a powerful one-hit.
“One hit should do it.”
She twists the spear.
In an instant, a sense of fatigue accompanies the surge of magical power, and a storm erupts.
The girl, sensing the crisis, shields herself with a shield fitted with a cube, but it’s useless.
The storm pierced through everything.
■
She opened her eyes.
The young girl, previously called fake, has awakened.
A kind-hearted girl and the bakery daughter, the fake girl who wanted to become Tia has awakened again through a mysterious power.
Her body felt strange.
Her physique was incomparable to before, and in her hand was the hated Book of Spells.
“The book of a demon that identified her as fake.”
She wanted to throw it away immediately, but her instincts warned her.
“Never let go of it.”
“That’s… Lily…”
“I need to kill her before she changes…”
A group of men and women walked toward the girl.
Strong humans.
The strongest, aside from one life form she’d ever seen.
The humans recklessly began their attack.
The girl blocked it.
Using her immortal-like bodily abilities and her copycat skills, she fended them off.
Who on earth are they?
That didn’t matter to the girl.
“Am I fake now?”
It was a question.
But to move beyond that question, she had to survive.
“One hit should do it.”
That woman looks quite strong.
Especially the storm bursting from that spear feels very familiar.
Yes, that thing.
“I’ve seen it somewhere.”
The woman who called her fake. Lily Elbrite.
To resolve this situation, she needs her power.
Swoosh…
As the storm enveloped her body, a memory surfaced.
“That’s not how you use it.”
“You don’t use a spear like that.”
“…! Lily…”
Blue hair fluttered.
Whoosh!!
The storm dissipated.
