"Shanai!" the bearded man shouted, conjuring a semi-transparent straight knife in his hand and throwing it at the still-dazed hot girl.

Shana instinctively took the knife, then quickly realized her captain's intention.

"Fight back!"

Shana gave a soft shout and suddenly swung her hand while gripping the knife.

Suddenly, several more Shana appeared around Ekaren.

Aikalen looked up and quickly glanced around.

'Including the main body, there are twelve in total. It's a clone-type ability, but it's unclear whether they have a physical form.'

These clones have just appeared and haven't started attacking yet.

Ekaren then randomly stabbed one of the clones with his spear.

The clone was pierced by the spear and pinned to the wall. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, it turned to ashes and disappeared.

Meanwhile, the other clones also seemed to be affected, their expressions turning uncomfortable.

'It has a physical form, so it doesn't seem to be the type to deceive.'

While thinking about these clones, Ekaren launched an attack.

With a gentle lift of his hand, Aikalen sent many pixelated bones piercing out of the ground, relentlessly attacking and harassing the clone.

His gaze, however, was fixed on the blonde woman holding the blood-stained ribbon.

'Their captain went so far as to lie to cover for her getting this thing; that bloodstain is definitely not simple.'

Another younger, burly man, Aka, picked up a dumbbell from the side and swung it at Aikaren.

The loud banging came the instant he swung his hand, as if he had hit thin air.

The bones protecting the wall behind Aikaren flickered slightly, clearly indicating that they had been attacked.

'His attack was meant for me, but he didn't know that in this state, my body was ethereal and untouchable.'
