God of Systems: Maker of Heroes and Villains

Chapter 255 Clones, But Different

Meanwhile, somewhere in Seraphina's divine palace.

Emma was silently resting with her eyes closed until she sensed a foreign presence, a presence that was familiar but fairly different too.

'Keith?' she thought and opened her eyes to see Seraphina running out of her small house. The two of them turned to look in the direction at which they felt the presence.

As if on cue, two extremely familiar people appeared out of thin air.

"Wha?" Emma blurted out as she saw herself and Keith standing side by side. Both of them wore completely black clothes while her "clone" had some extremely revealing clothes on which embarrassed her even though she herself wasn't wearing it.

She stared at them with a frown on her face, but before she could ask or say something, the Keith in front of her spoke.

"Look at this… the great author-turned-goddess is right here but she doesn't even know how she got here." he said and sneered, "Welp anyways, I kinda broke some rules in my universe so I got thrown in here…"

He then extended his hand towards her, "Join me Snow… and we'll rule this whole world together."

Emma looked at him cautiously and shook her head, "Don't wanna… I don't like the vibe you're giving me…"

'Hmm, I can't read his mind and nor can I check his genetic data… is it because he's from another world?' she thought to herself, but while she did, her clone grinned.

"Are you wondering why you can't read minds and stuff? That's because we're from a different universe and you, my dear… only have control over this one. Just join us obediently, I assure you that Keith here will take good care of you and we… will take good care of him."

"This is mind fuckery!" Emma cried out as the cogs in her mind turned, "If this whole different universe shit has restrictions, then doesn't that mean that you have no fucking control over this one? Since it's mine?"

Hearing this, the two look-alikes' expressions turned serious.

Keith snapped his fingers and a huge army of almost a hundred thousand undeads popped up behind him.

"If you're not going to come willingly, then I'll have to take you by force!" he yelled and pointed at her, "Get that bitch!"

Seeing this, Emma glared at the two of them, "It's not going to be so easy, you bastards! Sera, run away! Now!"

Seraphina shook her head but before she could do a thing, she found herself in a completely different place, a familiar place in fact.

"Sister?"

Back at Seraphina's divine palace, Emma glared at the two who were in front of her. Both of them were struggling to break out of an invisible prison that restricted their movements.

"Welcome to my universe, bitches." she said as she walked towards her counterpart and lifted her chin up with her index finger, "Wow, I really am pretty cute. I mean, I've taken a look at myself in the mirrors but dang the real thing really hits different. If only Keith would-"

"I know you like him and yet, he refuses to be with you and instead he went for two weak bitches. Your universe's Keith is a fucking pussy. Mine is better, so just come and join us. He'll give you everything you want, be it affection, attention or pleasure." the clone said as she tried to move her face away from the finger.

"He's an idiot for not being able to figure out your feelings for him. He's a naive donkey, the kind of protagonist I hate the most!"

Emma stared at her clone and took a step backwards, "I see, it looks like this Keith and my Keith are completely different people, yet very similar. They just have different ideologies and ways of doing things." she said and looked at Keith who was in front of her, and the other Keith who belonged to her universe though her godly senses.

She walked towards the Keith in front of her and sneered, "You already knew that she liked you so you decided to use her for your own personal strength… even though you particularly weren't attracted to her.

There's no way you can actually fall in love and STAY in love with a girl whom you can't meet often… actually scratch that, were you guys even able to meet each other more than thrice in the first three years?

The Keith I know isn't the type of person to commit unless he actually sees himself with me in the future. Especially when he's got a bad experience in his past life with his wife."

"What do you mean a bad experience with my wife? I killed that bitch and her new husband after a year or two of careful planning. On top of that, I don't care about appearances as long as my bitch is dedicated to me and is willing to do anything for me." he spat and looked at the other Emma.

"Tell me snow, you're my bitch aren't you?"

"Yes I am…" she muttered, her voice lower than usual.

Emma stared at Keith and her clone before nodding to herself, "I see, I was wrong. You're very different from Keith… he's not the kind of person to take advantage of someone's feelings and manipulate them into emotional dependency. You're a pure narcissist… "

Keith grinned and shook his head, "I'm not different. I'm just him who has taken a different path." he said and then, he suddenly screamed, "SNOW! NOW!!!"

***********

Keith leisurely read a story while his daughter was on the verge of drifting off to sleep. He saw her struggling to stay awake so she could listen more, but was unable to fight it off and finally closed her eyes.

He continued to read the book for five more minutes before stopping. He then placed the book on the bedside table and left the room to join Amelia for the night.

"Well, you took a bit long tonight." she said as she untied the simple knot that was keeping her silk robe on her body. Keith nodded as the robe slid down and used up most of his remaining mental energy on Vincent.

The kid had failed his mission and was currently imprisoned in Duke Hector Sambo's prison. Keith finally gave up on him due to this and his main goal was go get his money's worth from Vincent.

He upgraded Vincent's last skill which needed an upgrade, the Draconic Twister Throw that was under the Throw Skill tree. It reached SS grade and needed one more, but Keith had almost run out of his mental energy, so he simply stopped and spent some nice time with Amelia.

A few minutes later, Amelia panted heavily and whispered, "Good night… I've never seen a man who can do this every fucking day."

"Magic! Anyways, night night and sweet dreams." Keith said with a grin and patted her head while she slept on top of him. With half of his mental energy restored, he spent a good chunk of it on getting the skill to SSS grade.

He then used the rest of it on healing Alpha and Beta who had been getting into fights with the wolves as a part of their training.

Just as he was about to sleep, he heard a voice in his head and a system screen popped up in front of him.

"Urgent! Take a look at the system, we need to talk."

'Hmm? Urgent huh?' he thought as he focused his attention on the system screen.

[I think I finally know a little more about how both of us got here… me as a goddess and you as a regular human with the potential to become a god.]

[There's a being above us… someone who's actually creating universes and stuff and it looks like this being simply wants to watch the results of it's creation. Unfortunately, I don't know the details and this is just a… sort of a speculation on my end.]

[A few minutes ago, I met clones of me and you. I wouldn't say that they're clones but they do look exactly like us and they have the same abilities as us. My clone having the power of reality manipulation and your clone having the power of systems.]

Keith stared at the last message for two whole seconds before he finally came to his senses. He pushed Amelia gently to the side and immediately put on his clothes, "Something urgent came up and I need some time alone. I'll be back in… I don't really know."

"Okay, take care." Amelia said and waved her hand while Keith returned the gesture before leaving the room.

He rushed out of the mansion and began to walk along the streets of the town before he went back to his system screen.

'This… I don't know how to feel about this but I guess it'll be cool to meet myself? Nah it'll probably feel weird but oh well, let's see how it goes.' Keith thought optimistically since he did not have any details about the clones.

[It's not- I mean, they're different from us even though they look the same. I just escaped after a huge fight with them and I've used up most of my power to lock my clone in a curse.]

[There's a lot I wish to say but this is going to take a while… so get ready. Your counterpart.. I mean clone, is… let's say a person who has no moral boundaries. Maybe he does but it's safe to say that he's an evil man.]
