Chapter 153: Starting with the weakest guy
[Demon of Fate is successfully extracted!]
Following which, David felt a slight jerk in his head, as if something important was taken away from his body.
[Please carefully decide your clone's facial appearance!]
In the next moment, a window which allowed him to reshape the clone's appearance appeared in front of him, with its help he could fully customize its appearance.
It was similar to the character creation window from popular games.
"Hmm! Hair color red, handsomeness max, charisma max, a nine-inch weiner, nice."
David carefully navigated through the window, and it took him almost half an hour before he was done.
As soon as he clicked on finish!
A bright white light flashed in his room, almost blinding him for a moment.
When he was finally able to see again, in front of him stood an extremely handsome young man with long red hair neatly tied together in a ponytail. The man's facial features were sharp, with a chiseled chin and piercing eyes that seemed to look directly into your soul.
Dressed in a casual white sweatshirt, even when he simply stood there, David found it difficult to ignore his presence.
"Cough! What is your name?" David asked while looking at the man standing in front of him curiously.
Although the redheaded guy was David's clone, he had a mind of his own, capable of carrying out orders on its own without David needing to micro-manage his every action.
David could also feel a mental link that seemed to connect him directly with the clone. If David wanted, he could take control of the clone's body anytime he wanted.
"My name?" The redhead clone pointed a finger at himself and spoke in a confused voice as if not understanding what David was talking about.

"Yeah, your name," David repeated his question again while looking at the clone with interest.
Wondering how the clone would answer his question.
Along with Crystallization of life, a copy of basic memories was also transferred to the clone.
So it wouldn't be difficult for the clone to come up with a name for himself.
And indeed, after hearing David's words once again, the clone seemed to fall into a dazed state for a moment, and after a moment, clarity returned to his eyes.
"You can call me Azaroth," the clone answered in a deep voice after thinking for a moment.
"Welcome, Azaroth," David smiled after hearing his words.
Time continued to pass, and a week passed in the blink of an eye.
The Nightblade city was filled with heated discussion. The atmosphere inside the city was feverish as everyone excitedly discussed the changes in the Blood Moon forest.
Out of nowhere, the Dimension gate leading to the Spiritual Space of Bloodmoon Ancestor had suddenly appeared.
This was no laughing matter, as he was one of the strongest cultivators to ever walk on Green Heaven World. His contribution to world development was immense.
These days the Nightblade City was packed with people. It wasn't difficult to find a Nascent Soul expert in the streets.
"Do I really have to dress in this lousy shirt?" Lucas spoke while looking at the sweatshirt that he was wearing.
He was dressed in a white sweatshirt with the words 'Bank of Eternal Origin' engraved on the back.
"Yeah, and do your best," David said while looking at the huge illusory screen in mid-air.
Not just him, at this time the eyes of everyone present were on the screen.
From time to time, the cultivators would point their hands towards the screens and discuss loudly.
"The lady from the Green Heaven household is about to reach the fifth stage," an old man loudly exclaimed.
His shout attracted the attention of everyone present, and all of their eyes were focused on a petite figure in the center.
A young woman using her small fist valiantly crushed the head of a man.
"Tch! She is really a monster," after witnessing this scene, someone exclaimed in shock.
David was also attracted by the sudden exclamation, but he gave it a look and didn't say anything.
Beside him was his whole gang, including Ruby.
"Alright! Let's start with the weakest guy," David spoke with a serious face. The next moment he pointed his finger at Lucas and said, "Lucas, you go first and try to do your best."
"What do you mean by the weakest?" Lucas suddenly said and questioned the validity of David's words, but at this time his gaze landed on the people staying beside David, and he fell silent.
"Yeah, you dimwit, get moving," Borrito also decided to kick Lucas when he was down.
"Weak and stupid, what a perfect combination." After saying those words, Borrito turned his head away.
Lucas almost exploded after hearing the arrogant duck's words and said while grinding his teeth in anger, "Why don't you go first? You are clearly the weakest in the group."
"Pft! Not only a weakling but also a trash talker…" Borrito spoke with disdain in his small beady eyes; however, before the arrogant duck could continue speaking, it suddenly fell silent.
A fair, tender hand forcefully closed its mouth.
"Mr. Lucas, do your best, we are depending on you," Mary spoke from the sidelines; everyone ignored the duck who was struggling to free himself from her clutches.
Lucas rubbed the back of his head and didn't know what to say.
"Yeah, do your best," At this time, Sebastian also encouraged him from the side.
In the end, Lucas nodded seriously.
After some time, Lucas walked into the dimensional gate leading to Blood Moon Ancestor's spiritual space.
"Ok, I am going, wish me luck." Lucas followed the long line of people that were already waiting for their turn.
And after waiting for half an hour, finally, it was Lucas' turn. As soon as he stepped on the Dimensional gate, his body disappeared.
Lucas felt the world around him twist and turn, and for a moment, due to the disorientation, he was forced to close his eyes.
And in the next moment, Lucas could tell he was in a completely different place.
A huge hall made of insanely expensive material appeared in view.
However, before he could examine anything.
A calm voice filled the hall, "Prepare yourself, the first stage will begin in five minutes."
Lucas was already prepared, so he wasn't surprised.
Five minutes of time passed in the blink of an eye.
Suddenly, five figures dressed in black armor appeared in front of Lucas, each with the same cultivation as that of him at the Golden Core Realm rank 3.
"I bet he won't be able to reach the second stage," After finally freeing himself from Mary's clutches, Borrito commented while looking at a floating screen which displayed Lucas standing alone in the huge hall.
He seemed slightly nervous as he faced the five opponents.
"Shut up and watch quietly, you are going to be next," At this, Mary spoke.
"Hell no! Young master is not going to fight anyone," Borrito immediately shook his head, clearly not interested in fighting.
"What, you don't want to learn three-star formation anymore?" Mary immediately spoke in a lazy voice.
Borrito immediately looked up to see if she was being serious, "When did I say I don't want to learn formations…"
Suddenly he stopped midway as if to understand something, "Fine, I will go next."
"Good boy!" Mary patted Borrito's head while smiling.
David looked at this scene with a clueless expression on his face; these days, Borrito spent more time with Mary than him.
Unlike before, where he would follow David around like a newborn chick.
David shook his head and focused on Lucas' fight.
However, suddenly he was interrupted by a blue flashing window.
[Regretfully! You lost one of your clients today. However, the Bank of Eternal Origin can never suffer a loss.
Even if he died, the client will have to pay back somehow; therefore, his soul was captured. You now have the following options; keep in mind that you can only choose one.
1 - Extract Client's Crystallization of Life (Fire Furnace, Grade - Uncommon)
2 - Extract Aron's memories from his birth till his death.
3 - Any item that the client owned in his lifetime.
4 - Do Nothing, let the compound interest do its thing and decide again when the Client dies in his next life.
Please note, as capturing the soul and imprisoning it requires a large amount of mana, because of which you only have twenty hours left to make a choice.]
David first looked at the screen to see if the fight was going to end. However, it appeared Lucas could still last for some time.
He once again focused back on the window in front of him.
This was someone that he vaguely remembered.
Considering everything for a moment, David decided to choose the second option.
He was interested in this option because the guy's crystallization of life looked interesting.
Just after he made his choice, a rush of information suddenly filled his head; David felt as if he had lived a completely different life in a moment.
