Erend, Billy, and Adrien stood on the three Magic circles that had been prepared for them.
There was a kind of strange sensation that they felt when they set foot in that one-meter diameter circle.
Yes, the circle is not very big. Aurdis and Saeldir made it as small as possible but still fit their bodies.
That's because this room is not wide enough to make a circle bigger than this.
And the three of them should each have their own circle.
"We will start," Saeldir said.
Aurdis and Saeldir stretched their arms forward.
Silver light came out of their bodies.
Then another green light appeared from the Magic circle at the feet of the three of them.
The green light grew until it finally enveloped the bodies of the three of them.
There was a cold and cool sensation that they felt. They felt as if they were in the middle of a forest.
They could even smell the faint aroma of fresh grass wafting into their noses.
The process lasted for approximately one minute. After that, the greenish light shrank and disappeared.
Together with the green light, the magic circle under the feet of the three of them also disappeared. Absorbed into their bodies.
"It's done," Aurdis said.
The three of them looked around but saw no change.
"Where are the clones?" Erend asked representing the confusion of his friends that have the same confused look on their faces.
"We need a few minutes before the clones appeared to do their job. But we can go now," Saeldir answered while taking his cloth bag.
"Are we leaving now?" Billy asked with a confused face.
"Yes. Those clones will appear in this house and replace you to doing whatever you have to do," Saeldir said. "So now let's go and waste no time."
"Are you sure that the clones will work properly?" he asked.
"Of course. The clone will be exactly like you," this time it was Aurdis who answered. "It's not only your bodies that are similar. But your character and thoughts will also be the same."
Adrien nodded. "Fine, I'll believe you."
Seeing what the Elves can do, Adrien, Billy, and Erend won't argue too long.
If they said it with absolute certainty, it meant that they would indeed create extraordinary results.
Adrien, Erend, and Billy also took their prepared items. Of course, there won't be much to take with them on this trip.
The three of them carried minimal weapons such as daggers and pistols.
They also brought some flashbangs, smoke grenades, and stun grenades just in case things got worse than they expected.
After everything was settled, they left the house.
Erend didn't lock the door of his house because he knew their clones would show up inside soon.
"I'll drive first. After that we'll take turns," Adrien said.
The car started running on the asphalt road.
It wasn't too late at night but the dark clouds were already hanging overhead covering the moonlight. Making the night looks darker than it should be.
The dark atmosphere drove them to a secret facility to carry out this dangerous mission.
A few minutes after they left, the three clones that had been created by Saeldir and Aurdis appeared in the house.
The three clones appeared right above where Erend, Billy, and Adrien had been standing.

Annie walked towards the practice room with a pounding chest.
'Of course, Steve wants revenge.'
She knew that Steve would not just let his defeat at that time pass like that. This time, he would definitely give his revenge.
Annie felt anxious. But that doesn't mean she's afraid.
In fact, Annie actually felt that this kind of training was necessary.
Previously, she always felt fear haunting her every time she wanted to do something.
Especially when she gets this Magic power. Annie had always been afraid to use it for fear of hurting someone or destroying things.
However, Conrad said that it was the feeling of fear that made it difficult for her to control her Magic.
And at last, after training for days and nights, she managed to overcome her fear and take better control of her Magic.
And Annie knows that in order to make her Magic control even better, she must continue to train it by fighting with Steve.
Annie doesn't care about the result even if she loses or wins.
The important thing was, she was able to gain experience from fighting Steve.
When she walked into the practice room, Annie saw that Steve was already inside and waiting for her.
He stood in the middle of the large indoor court while facing the other way. He had taken off his shirt and was only wearing pants.
"You're coming," Steve said.
Annie entered and closed the door. "Of course."
She walked closer to Steve. But soon Annie's brow creased. Her eyes move to look at the surrounding.
'What is this?'
Annie felt something strange in this room. Like pressure that made her chest feel a little tight.
Annie turned to look around. To find something that made her feel that strange feeling.
"Let's get started right away."
Steve turned to Annie. Immediately she saw the grin on Steve's face.
'Did it come from him?' she thought.
Annie walked closer to Steve. That strange feeling is now gone.
All that was left was the growing feeling of anxiety in Annie's heart.
Annie was sure that what she felt earlier came from Magic. And she had never felt this feeling before when she was outside.
It wasn't until she went inside and met Steve that the feelings kicked in.
It was enough to make her think that Steve was the cause of that strange feeling.
Even though the strange feeling had disappeared now, Annie's bad feeling still hadn't disappeared.
"Have you been doing anything lately?" she asked.
"What do you mean?" Steve asked back with a confused expression.
Annie stared at him silently. She realized that Steve wouldn't say anything if he had indeed done something with his Magic.
