The World Serpent

Persia found her sight illuminated with a silver light. She sighed as she waited for the silver light to dim. As seconds passed, Persia slowly felt different, which meant she got teleported into a new place. She wondered what kind of place she got teleported it as the Realm of Skirmish probably got completed. If the Realm still found itself unfinished, Persia would have sent a complaint against the thing that threw them into the rite.

The silver light finally disappeared as Persia began looking around. She furrowed her eyebrows as she found herself in a strange situation. Persia got surrounded by Eternal Darkness, which blocked her sight. She couldn't feel or hear anything other than the void. Persia had a confused expression plastered on her face as she didn't know what she was supposed to do. 'Where am I?' Persia thought to herself as she continued looking around the area.

'Darkness, Nothing but Darkness." Persia thought as everything around her was black. The Floor she stood on was black. She didn't know if there was a ceiling or a wall as there was only darkness, which was annoying. The Cold tried to invade her body, but fortunately, Persia noticed something different with her body. Her body was in full power, which meant that she was free from being weak.

'Though why is my full strength back?' Persia thought to herself as she was curious about her current power. The fact that her full strength was back can only mean one thing. It meant that Persia would have to fight against an opponent that might be equal or better than her in a duel. With such thoughts within Persia's mind, Her Expression got colder as she prepared herself.

*Persia, The Heir of the World Serpent. You have competed in the Realm of Skirmish and will now complete the Second Realm. The Realm of Duel will make you fight against an Opponent Equal to you and knows you best. You will fight against your Fate. Your Victory will depend if you can win against it.* The Ancient Distorted Voice echoed as Persia found herself in silence.

Persia didn't have anything to say as she remembered something about Fighting against Fate. She didn't know when she said it, but Persia then remembered a time when she found herself dead under Fate. She had a deep hatred against such a word which made her wonder where her hatred's origin was. 'It must be from my memories.' Persia concluded as her desire to complete the Rites got stronger.

"I'll take any of your challenges," Persia spoke with a calm yet cold voice. It didn't reply though a Mirror fell from the Dark Skies. Persia looked up as she wondered where the Mirror materialized. She shook her head and turned her gaze towards the Mirror. Her Golden Amber Eyes glowed as she walked towards the Mirror. Does she need to enter through it? Persia wondered as she tried to test such a theory.

Persia found herself hitting the glass as she tried to enter through the Mirror. She found herself disappointed as she felt annoyed. She began walking around the Mirror as she checked every nook and cranny. She then stopped walking and gazed upon the Mirror. She saw herself staring at herself. She was quite beautiful as her Long Silver White Hair and Golden Amber Eyes finally got fully revealed in front of her.

She stared at it as she shook her head in disappointment. Persia turned her head sidewards as she looked at the endless darkness. Though, what Persia never noticed was her Reflection not changing. It stayed and began moving. It had a creepy smile plastered on its face as Persia stopped looking in the other direction and turned her head towards her Reflection.

"Hmm... Strange." Persia muttered to herself as she decided to move her face. Then she found herself in disbelief. The Reflection in front of her didn't follow her. It then gave her a realization. The Reflection of Persia smiled as Persia quickly retreated and hopped back. She looked at the Reflection, who was still smiling as it slowly stepped out of the Mirror.

"Who are you?" Persia asked with a cold voice as her Sword materialized in front of her. The Sword's name was Azathot as it got made by the skill with the same name. She pointed it towards the Reflection and asked once again. "Who are you?" The Reflection didn't say anything as it continued smiling. It then created a Sword that was similar to Azathot as it answered with a distorted voice.

"I'm you."

When the Reflection answered, Persia started her charge as she disappeared from her spot and stabbed the Reflection with her Sword. Though unfortunately, the Sword broke apart as Persia stared at the Reflection in shock. 'Pierce Nullification.' Persia thought to herself as she retreated once again. She never thought that she would fight against an Opponent with Pierce Nullification.

"Tsk..." Persia clicked her tongue as she created an Energy Ball. She threw the ball towards the Reflection as it exploded. A bright light illuminated as a shockwave echoed. The shockwave then passed through Persia as she heard a thunderous sound echoing through her ears. *BOOM!!!* She felt a strong wind as she saw a Mushroom Cloud form in front of her.

Persia wasn't the type that would wait for her enemies, so she threw more energy balls towards the Reflection. Numerous bright lights illuminated as shockwaves formed everywhere. A dozen thunderous sounds kept echoing as Persia looked at the distance. She squinted her eyes as she could see a dark figure smiling. The Reflection then spoke with a calm voice. "Are you done?"

Persia gritted her teeth as she began running towards the Reflection. She formed a Giant Flying Island and threw it towards the Reflection. The Giant Flying Island propelled itself towards the Reflection as the Reflection swung its Sword towards the Giant Island. The Giant Flying Island found itself split in half as it fell in two different directions.

Persia disappeared as she reappeared right beside the Reflection. She then formed an Energy Ball with the power of a dozen thousand Energy Balls with the Combination of her Dangerous Poison. She threw it towards the face of the Reflection as it exploded. A bright light illuminated Persia's sight as she found herself falling. She looked towards the direction of the Reflection and saw the Reflection with a bloodied face.

Though unfortunately, the Reflection quickly regenerated without any problems. Persia retreated as she watched the Reflection from afar. "Is that what all you can do, Me?" The Reflection asked while waving its Sword. It mocked Persia as it began pointing its Sword towards her. "You should be creative." The Reflection disappeared from its spot. Persia then started looking around with her World Eye.

It then reappeared on top of Persia as it manipulated the Space around her. In an instant, the Space between the two shrinks, and the Reflection instantly appeared in front of Persia. "How's that?" The Reflection smirked as it activated its hellfire in front of Persia's face. Persia's body began to burn as she found herself in a strange pain. She quickly retreated and looked at the Reflection with a Serious expression. It was the first time she found herself damaged.

"The Element of Space and Hellfire," Persia muttered as she remembered the description of the Hellfire Skill. She sighed as she almost forgot of such skill. It was a Skill that could burn one's mind and spirit. The Two things she lacked defensive skills. The fact that the Reflection could see her weakness without any problems was a severe problem, but it could also be an advantage.

"Let's fight impersonator," Persia spoke with a calm voice as she disappeared from her spot. She manipulated the Element of Time as everything around her stopped. She then controlled the Element of Space which made her instantly teleport right next to the Reflection. She then used her Energy Ball with the Combination of Hellfire. She used her Augmentation and finally used her last skill.

Persia folded the Space through the Reflection as she forced her hand with the Hell Energy Ball through it. She then retreated as a Giant Explosion of Hellfire began. The Folded Space got punctured by Persia's hand, which resulted in her hand traveling on light speed through the Reflection. The Result was clear as Persia looked at her Reflection with a smile plastered on her face.

Persia landed on the Dark Floor without any problems as she turned her gaze towards the Reflection. The Hellfire Explosion slowly faded as the Figure of the Reflection finally revealed itself. The Reflection had a hole on her body as she slowly looked down upon her body. The Reflection smiled as it looked towards Persia. "That was a good fight."

The Reflection spoke with a calm voice as Persia stared at it with her Golden Amber Eyes. The Dark Floor where the Reflection stood opened as the Reflection slowly found itself falling. Though before it could fall into the darkness. It felt a hand grabbing it. It looked towards the pale hand and noticed Persia helping it. "Why are you helping me?" The Reflection asked with a Curious voice as Persia didn't answer and pulled the Reflection out of the darkness.

The Reflection's body started healing as the Reflection silently stood while staring at Persia.

Persia calmly stood as she turned her head towards the Reflection and asked. "Why would I destroy you?" Hearing the words of Persia, The Reflection found itself confused. Does it need to provoke Persia more? Before the Reflection could answer its question, Persia already spoke with a soothing voice. "That wouldn't work."

The Reflection sighed as it decided to stop and look at the Dark Skies. It lay on the Dark Floor as it began thinking of the fight. It knew what it got created for, and it wanted to fulfill the reason for its creation. The Reflection was simply something created by a Mirror that would be too expensive that even the Gods wouldn't touch it. The Mirror was named Reflection as it Reflected the Things in front of it with a full copy.

If it reflected a World, It would create a full copy of the World it reflected. It was an Artifact beyond Artifacts. It was a Treasure beyond Treasures. A God would even have a full Copy if it tried to get reflected by the Mirror. It was a Dangerous Mirror though it got used for a test. The Reflection looked at Persia, who was gazing at the Dark Skies. They couldn't see anything but darkness, but it was also peaceful and silent.

"Why didn't you kill me to complete the Realm of Duel, Me?" The Reflection asked as it turned its gaze towards Persia. It was like Persia's doppelganger looking at the Original Persia, which was a strange sight. Persia looked at the Reflection with her Golden Amber Eyes and answered with a calm voice. "I don't want to." The Reflection was quite confused about Persia's answer.

It didn't know what to say as it continued looking at the Original Persia. "You are quite lucky to be free." The Reflection spoke with a calm voice as Persia looked at the Reflection and replied. "You aren't?" The Reflection chuckled as it shook its head and answered. "I'm not free. I'm simply a Reflection of you. Nothing but a Doppelganger that has a mission to make its original realized important things about life."

"Well, that was rather interesting, Me. It seems that it's time for you to leave." The Reflection smiled as Persia found herself surrounded by the bright silver light. She looked at her pale arms engulfed by the bright light and looked at the Reflection. "An Interesting Conversation with the Original. Hahaha!!!" The Reflection began laughing.

Though, The Reflection felt a hand grabbing its arm. It looked towards the hand, and it was Persia's hand. "What are you trying to do, Me? I must stay here as I completed the Mission on why I got created." The Reflection tried to take Persia's hand away. But unfortunately for the Reflection, Persia's hand was too hard to take off.. The bright light engulfed the two of them, and they disappeared from their spot.
