Both of our domains of ice captured a different piece of ice. Mine was a clear white with hints of a bluish tint, while he was a dark blue, possibly representing the coldest of nights. It had stars and glimpses of yellow flashes as it poured out beneath the throne he was on. 

Two sides of the throne hall erupted with two overwhelming concentrates of freezing ice, but mine slowly dwindled down, allowing him to overwhelm the rest with one big push… yet, mine didn't really dwindle down and instead concentrated into my daggers now pushing into his ice reinforced forearm. 

"Y-You bitch…" He muttered, pushing his throne world to engulf me from every angle. It pierced into my neck, my shoulders, and my triceps and then wormed its way down my back. It caused me to bleed exponentially while I pushed as hard as I could. 

"ARGHHHHH!" I screamed, blood streaming from my eyes, and then… KSH. A dagger of dark blue ice pierced through my head, ramming straight through my brain and coming out the other side. Everything went black. 

"What an idiot…" A voice cackled from afar, and as the Quincy looked down from his throne, he felt my double lighten and then drift away into a gust of snow. "My new skill that I acquired from obtaining the blessing of a demon god. It unlocked a new path in the runes on my back… [Ghostly Double of Past Fates]."

"What a shit and long name… couldn't you have shortened it down." 

"Wu shut the hell up for a second and let me have my moment," I sighed, glancing down at the woman who was still tied up. But despite being completely restricted, she was just chilling on the floor, staring up at the ceiling and kicking her legs back and forth. 

"Go, go, go! I'm rooting for you!" She exclaimed with sparkling eyes, seeing my sniper of flesh completely wrap around my arm. It had already charged up the entire time the snow elf was fighting my double, and after letting out a long sigh, I leaned forward to offset some of the recoil. 

BOOOOOOOOOM 

A beam of blood-red light split the elf's head in half. It was as simple as that. And as his body fell limp on the throne, a trail of frozen ice suddenly ran down the lip of the seat. It rolled and slid until it reached the floor. 

"Welp, guess you aren't evolving," Wu shrugged with a cheeky smile, but clearly, she didn't realize what was truly happening as I looked past the throne and saw two pale white hands begin to clap.

"Nah, that was just a clone. I guess we were both thinking of the same thing… hmph… you're pretty good," The same sly voice echoed across the room, and as our little display of ice and power fizzled back into the mana within the air, I released Wu from her chains and readied myself to fight again. 

"Hey, boost me with a few support buffs. I doubt I can win against this guy…." 

"Well, it's good that you know your place, but I have no intention of fighting you anymore. I've gauged your power and tenacity… and I can see why my lord is so interested in you. So, I have no interest in battling again. Feel free to come at me, but… I doubt you'll survive."

All of a sudden, that arrogant tone of his also shifted to his eyes, but it was deserved. He was so much more powerful than that clone I had fought. And yes, I did also have my own clone, but that practically mimicked my own power. It's a skill used to gauge the power of an opponent with my own real power… and I still struggled against him. 

"Tch… alright, fine. So, do you want to hear out my deal, or are you just going to kick me out?" I sighed, relaxing my body and deactivating all of the skills I had ready. Wu did the same, reluctantly, of course, but in the end still followed my own actions. 

"No, I'll hear out your deal. If I'm unsatisfied, I will, of course, alter the deal, and if you don't like that, then… I guess there will be no deal." 

"Okay, well, I want your tear, of course. But in exchange for that, I will give you an item sought out by many… what do you think? I'm sure you'd like it." 

"Then show it to me before I lose interest… Come on, chop-chop." 

Slowly, I opened up my magic ring and obtained a singular item that somebody like him would love to have. I mean, well, Orion probably could have used it better, but I fear that he will use it too well. He's strong… way too strong, and if I gave him, a sly person, this item, then once we return to the surface, I'm sure so much chaos would ensue that the world will implode in on itself. 

"Oh… that's from the auction. I took a glimpse into the stash, but I didn't realize somebody like you would obtain it… hmmmm… it's pretty good… The Ring of Melting Hearts." 

"Hey, when did you acquire that," Wu asked as she walked right next to me while keeping an eye on the elf who slowly approached me. His eyes were locked onto the ring, but just before he could reach out and grab it, presumably to get a better look at it, I pulled it away. 

"Decide on the deal, and then you can touch it," I muttered before turning to Wu. "When we were at the warehouse, I slaughtered the auctioneer. It seems he was using this to try and sway the opinion of people in his favor… and I mean, it worked… pretty well, so I'd say it's real." 

"Then let me take a look," The elf snarled, reaching for it again, but I quickly took a step back, holding the ring away from him. He attempted to snatch it from my hand like a child, but I kept it away until he began to get really agitated. "I have to confirm if it's real." 

"Then, if you steal it from me, you better give me something as payment."

"Uh huh… yeah, whatever, you can have my tear. It's not that special to me anyway… in fact, I could have bought this ring myself, y'know. But, I'm wondering… why did the auctioneer have it on himself when it was supposed to be given to the buyer-" 

"He died," I quickly responded before tossing the ring to him. He immediately caught it and then shrugged at my words. "What? Did you expect something else? Practically every single person who attended that auction was injured or straight up died…." 

"Oh… that's a shame…" 

He didn't care. He just didn't know what to say as he inspected the ring, which would allow him to control the minds of others. By slipping thoughts into somebody else's brain, the wielder of this ring can manipulate somebody to the highest degree with almost zero to no drawbacks… It was the most underrated item at that auction. 

As soon as he finished inspecting it, he smiled before a singular tear dripped from his eye. So, quickly, I took out a small glass vial and handed it to him. He looked a bit confused but also disgusted as this made me seem like some kind of pervert who had a fetish with tears or something. 

"Just take the goddamn vial," I groaned, so eventually, the elf grabbed it from me and slid it against his face until the tear dripped into it. 

Finally, I had the last piece that I needed for my evolution, and I just couldn't wait to show it to Orion. I bet he is going to go crazy at the thought of what evolution I'll get and possibly a new class that will help me progress even further down in this hell hole.

"Thank you. It's been nice making a deal with you," I smiled before quickly taking Wu out of the palace. I wanted to evolve as soon as possible, even if it meant not giving the Quincy a proper goodbye.
