I was woken up by the smell that came into the room from down stairs I have no idea how my senses was this good, but the smell of food woke me up faster than I could expect since I really only been eating dried food since the trip to the island and to now.
Getting up and noticing that I am practically drooling cause of the smell of cooked vegetables and meat in the air.
Before I could even thing much of the matter I noticed I was dressed already and in the tavern area where they are serving food eyeing the kitchen with great effort.
*Coughs*
Trying to control herself better and act like she was waiting on service, and just tried to get the attention of the Inn Attendant lady at the counter.
“OH, How may I help you young lady?” Inn Lady
“Food…..” Jona
Before she could even finished her stomach growled as if it was protesting making her embarresed on the inside but decided to keep her poker face active as to not blush, but it didn’t keep Rose from laughing and rolling around in her mind calling her super cute between laughs and the attempt to catch her breath.
“Yes we are serving food may I get you some? But I am sorry since the lack of supplies here all we can do is give a single bowl of vegetable stew and bread.” Inn Lady
“The stew has meat?” Jona
“Yes… it does but it’s also best to not ask where it came from” Inn Lady
“Okay… want” Jona
The Inn lady just nodded and went back to the kitchen while she herself made her way to an empty table to sit and keep her ears open for any gossip or interesting topics in this place.
If this… is anything like the stories I read I should be able to figure some stuff out a little of what’s going on around these parts though it might just be me being to over thoughtful on their usefulness…
Since most of them were just talking about monsters they’ve killed, where to stay away from if you didn’t have any sort of sneaking ability because of the army there looking for some long lost princess…..
…..
……
………
I sure hope that isn’t me.
Anyhow as to describe how me and Rose could do this cloning and knew it would work is practically simple boredom one day with nothing to do.
{Flashback}
“I have kicked your ass a bit too much as is. I know you can come in here anytime you want during meditation.” Rose
She sighed and then looked back at me with a blade in her hand as if she wanted to fight a lot more than matching the same moves over and over.
“Why not try to change your class?” Jona
“Well I would if I knew how too… inside this place isn’t like we have the gems right?” Rose
“This place is a type of Domain spell similar to illusions, but mostly a dream state inside the mind that’s why we can talk to each other. Other words a mind trick where I trick my mind into believing into reality of this” Jona
Rose seemed to understand and thought of the class change of her own and gem with a dancer appeared in front of her and shined brightly when she grabbed it and the air around her changed as if she herself seemed to be more beautiful than normal.
“Jona, I am going to try to act a bit it’s off the stories and crazy people to see if I can get it down, cause in battle if you can get your enemies to flinch and show fear you will have the upper hand” Rose
Then she just calmed her breath before smiling like any classical yandere from a anime I loved
I could swear I seen a demon behind her making me wanting to back up a little bit, but what was the creepiest was how she laughed making it echo inside this place before walking towards me humming a song in between giggles.
“Oh deary~ let me see how pretty your face can be without that mask of skin~” Rose
And she came up close to me making me make a mistake before I rose my guard she had already kicked me in the gut sending me flying with a loud cough feeling like blood is coming up my throat.
“Oh my~ did that hurt?” Rose
She was already at my ear blowing in it with that same smile before kicking me in the side throwing me even farther away hitting one of the recent trees we made to make this place more lively.
“ku ku ku~ Come on now little one, scream for me~” Rose
She is totally getting into this, and I personally think she’s going too far with it but then she seemingly kicked me in the head in the next moment and I blanked out.
…..
……..

{Pov: Rose)
As you already know I am Rose, but before that I couldn’t move anything at all my body was just stuck no life, and really nothing but darkness with no reason to move on, and it went on like that for what seemed enternity but then a major shock of pain that was really impossible for me to describe came over me leaving me with nothing but fear of what’s going on.
When I finally came to after probably the pain being too much for me to even handle… there was someone moving my body, but I couldn’t speak to her either but she seemed to be slightly smart… by her thoughts of hers she was already doubting the people here, and not trusting them at all.
When I could finally talk to her she was having a nightmare according to her memories and one that was too hard for me to describe myself, but I had the feeling of just wanting to protect this small person that even though she was inside my body, she might even be younger than me.
Stolen story; please report.
I ended up talking to her after that dream, though she’s a bit weird even though I am here she keep taking to herself throughout it all taking it up on herself and acting rashly.
And when we got to the point to where I first was mad at her and beat her up while making it up to her.
The second time is me trying to act the part of one of her favorite characters with my own twist, but I know I over did it with the last kick to the head, I had thought since it’s a dream plane one can’t get knocked out.
But what happened next scared me more than my acting because she got up seemingly blank minded with none of her old self inside her and eyes of a dead killer….
The next think I knew I was being thrown in the air without her even touching me like she herself was just using pure power to fight me while fighting close to me leaving me no way to defend myself.
I really regret acting like that but it was a lesson she needed… if someone that was really that way were to fight her… without me being able to help her she would lose , I know how kind hearted she really is, maybe a little childish but she acts the way she does on the outside to avoid being hurt, I can see that by her memories.
I could only cry at my foolishness for scaring her like that, but she slammed me down to the ground with such force even the power I can’t see or feel like she is using some sort of hidden arm to throw me around like a rag doll… but the moment she let up I could only do one thing and hug her tightly trying to get her to come back to herself.
“Jona! Wake up! I know you’re in there!” Rose
I know it isn’t really going to happen but I know if this is as cliché as it seems this might work…. But real life is never the same cause the next moment she just threw me off as the darkness that she drove away before when I first got mad at her started closing in on this space even more like it was alive on its own.
But I guess luck was on my own side because she vanished and the place went back to normal as I had known she really had feeling asleep.
‘you.. shouldn’t of knocked me out like that’ Jona
What seemed like a few hours she seemed mad at me making a comment like she didn’t even remember what she did.
“Do you even remember anything after that?” Rose
‘huh? There is nothing to remember when your knocked out you know… I can’t be inside that place unless I am meditating other so when I actually sleep it’s impossible’ Jona
So it’s true the girl doesn’t know what she did or what happened…
“I only did what I did to get you ready for the future if you ran into an enemy like that” Rose
‘Well you should only do that on moderation… and on enemies not me it was scary as hell’ Jona
I couldn’t help myself but smile happily at her and giggle, yes this girl is more of a child then I am, and I swear to you gods above I would do anything in my power to keep this girl safe.
“So what about the clones?” Rose
‘Clones?’ Jona
Dear god, is this girl brain dead?
“The move to your Kunoichi class maybe we can use it to let me take over one of them as a temporary body to help you in special cases.” Rose
‘oh…. OH! Yeah we can do that, but since I don’t know how to activate them yet it would be a bit hard….’ Jona
…. Really? And as many books she read? She can’t activate them? Maybe she is just really brain dead at the moment or the type that really doesn’t think too often…. Well the important stuff anyhow… she even kept just scanning through the books she was told to read… without much care…
“Just act like one of your story characters and how they used the skills.” Rose
Then she seemed to understand and closed her eyes cause I couldn’t see the outside world anymore since we share senses, and started moving her hands as if in an absent minded motion making symbols fast similar to what you see in a famous idiot out of one of her animes and her words that came out was a bit utterly different then what I’d expect.
{Perfect clone}
And over 200 of her spiritual energy was taken though only minor bit of mana was taken making it a bit confusing since mana recovers a lot faster than her spiritual energy leaving her with almost none left though she tends to train it by using it she can make it slowly increase or so we hope.
And to make matters worse I know she is using too much spiritual power to make it then it is actually needed but I am sure… if she used too little our connection might also be lower.
The clone itself was an exact replica of her except for the eyes being a different color, that even confused her.
‘now what?’ Jona
“Let me try something” Rose
I then concentrated my being like you would see in animes and imaged myself being inside the body of the clone and the next thing I knew I could control the body as if it was my own, but I can still feel that I was inside Jona’s head I was just connected to the body and able to move it.
“What was with the ‘perfect clone’ move?” Rose
That really was no need to add the world perfect right?
“Well I figured with my knowledge of the human body…. I could make a clone that was exactly the same as a human with all the knowledge making it more than just a clone.” Jona
She seemed to look down a bit since she has had a habit of letting her guard down with just me, so I can see her face had turned red so she’s just trying to hide it a bit.
Cute…..
“Well should we try different moves?” Rose
She nodded and by the end of the day we figured out how to use all of the moves she had and the ‘Blackmoon Dance’ was really something since it could it was better with a clone so it with both of us was able to make it into a waltz of blades.
So… I wonder what my status is?

Well that’s a bit over powered? But a few skills are locked… meaning I can’t use them cause of being a clone… too bad…
But I do wonder what ‘Path’ is…
PathPath is a set of footwork that is only used by the forgotten Royal Family of Flames.
The dungeon it self has sense been sealed keeping the demons from spawning out too much, but sadly there
has been too many of them that has released on that day and is still raiding villages too today.
This Path art comes in three different skills:
Forgotten Seal: is an art where you seal the movements of your enemies in a small time frame depending on it's level
the air around the target seems to hold them steal for a small time frame kinda similar to a time stop ability, but this skill
is forgotten for a reason. The only ones able to use this is the people of royal blood, if anyone else was to try they would end
up frozen as well. Making this skill pretty useless to anyone else.
Forbidden Art: As it is said it is forbidden even the Royal family didn't use this one unless it was the last resort, it is like trading ones life
for power, and if it didn't kill the user even Royality would be unable to fight anymore, and would be weaker then a commoner with no power.
This art it self brings the life force of the user into a storm of blades around the user cutting and killing anything in a thirty metter radious.
Unknown Seal: this is an Art that is even forgotten, no one not even the Royal family has been able to unlock it's secrets.
Well… I guess I won’t be using thoughs skills for a while since all of them seem to be iffy….. but the rest is pretty self explanatory since they are out of the game since the three dances buff allies while fighting and hurting the enemies, Fire increases moral and str, Blades increases speed and sharpness of a blade, demons takes away the feel of pain making them like demons on the battlefield, while Requiem of Angels it self even though it’s locked I know what it does, it is a healing dance where everyone in the radious will be healed of any wound, at the cost of the users health and mana, but it would never kill the user just make them really tired.
Elemental stance is similar to a martial arts except it uses the elements that dance along with your blade. And the rest is pretty much explanatory right???

{End of flashback/ POV: Jona}
Well that was a good breakfast….
“Why are you here?” Jona
There is a woman in front of me with a hood on eyeing me like I am some treasure they must have.
