The Two Armies
(Tsuki POV)
I looked at my small army of Aniue clones with satisfaction. If you wanted an army, why would you settle for anything less than the best?
I even created all of them with as close to Aniue's likeness as possible too, the only issue was that they did not have their own ego nor the same power level of Aniue's of course.
Still, in terms of physical looks and strength, they were at least comparable enough~
I'm just not sure how well they would perform against those Origin Wielders since they only possess minor Divine powers that I have gifted them, so they would be about the strength of those World Gods I believe.
But oh well, I can make tons of them with a thought so if I can't beat them in quality, I'll just do it with quantity!
Plus… Ehehe… I can have some of them cuddle me while I'm at it~
I looked up at the Aniue clone I specifically made with that in mind, the clone standing at rigid attention while waiting for my orders.
Deciding to throw caution to the wind, I jumped right into the Aniue clone's embrace, burying my face in his chest and rubbing my nose on it.
Mmm… Hmmm… Eh?
I pulled back and looked at the clone weirdly.
He definitely is Aniue's clone that I made for sure but… The feeling is somehow really different from Aniue…
Is this a problem where I was unable to replicate Aniue's aura or something?
Nnggh… This is quite vexing if that was the case… I thought I had it figured out since Aniue was also able to split himself into multiple bodies and all of them feel just like himself even when there's so many of him.
So what is missing?
Maybe… His smell?
I leaned forward and gave the clone's body a sniff.
Hmm… That certainly might be something that is missing, I will have to try it again after thoroughly sniffing the real Aniue later.
Meanwhile, I went ahead to check how the rest of the clones were doing and found them all engaged in a fight with a single Origin Wielder.
This particular Origin Wielder did not look human especially when he's standing at over eight feet tall with horns on his head.
Nevertheless, my clone army of Aniue charged at him without any fear, avoiding all the reality altering attacks he was throwing at them while attacking him from all sides.
A few of the clones may have been defeated in the process but more of them always took their place to continue their attacks.
That Origin Wielder was putting up quite a fight since this had been going on for at least twenty minutes or so already.
I watched the fight for a while more before something shot out of the sky and blew the Origin Wielder's torso apart, causing him to fall on his knees even as his body started to knit back together.
He tried to turn around to see who was the attacker, only to have a giant, metallic looking spear stab through his chest.
He gave out a wail of pain before the spear blew apart, generating a miniature black hole that obliterated that Origin Wielder alongside a few of my Aniue clones.
I scowled as a giant robot fell from the sky in a three point landing before straightening up, its size at least two to three times of that Origin Wielder from before.
If I had to describe it, it was basically a mecha Aniue, or more precisely, a mecha suit with a stylised version of Aniue's face as its head.
The chest opened up and seated inside the cockpit was none other than the self proclaimed little sister of Aniue's.
She looked at me smugly, "Ahahaha! What do you think of my Mecha Onii-sama?! Much more impressive than your clones, doesn't it?! It even has shoulder mounted Annihilator rocket launchers, wrist mounted Decimator cannons and can even fire lasers from the eyes!!"
I rolled my eyes at her, "It's an abomination, that's what it is. I bet Aniue is rolling around in agony right now."
"Wahaha! Say what you want! But what good are those clones?! With this Mecha Onii-sama, I can be inside of him! Can you do that with your clones?!"
I rolled my eyes, "Please, that thing doesn't even remotely resemble the real Aniue. That thing is no better than some giant robot that you pasted Aniue's picture on."
"Hmph, you're just jealous you didn't think of as good of an idea like mine! Can you be completely encapsulated by Onii-sama with your little clones?!"
I ordered a few of the clones to come up and hug me from all sides, wrapping me up in an Aniue cocoon.
"Yes I can~"
That girl rolled her eyes, "Come on. You dare to lecture me about creating a robot that doesn't look like Onii-sama when you've taken your own creative liberties with your clones too! Since when did Onii-sama have such muscular arms?!"
I scoffed at her, "Hmph, don't you understand the meaning of aesthetics? I am simply making Aniue appear even better while maintaining faithfulness to the source material unlike you!"
"That's a load of bullshit! My Mecha Onii-sama is better than your little fake Onii-sama!"
"No, no. Clearly you are the one mistaken here. Look, my Aniue clones could take on an Origin Wielder head on and win while yours needed to rely on cowardly tactics like surprise attacks to get the job done. Obviously my creation of Aniue is much superior than yours."
"Hmmmmph!! I only saw that you were struggling with him, that's why I came to help! My Mecha Onii-sama can fight any opponent head on, these Origin Wielders are all just pieces of cake for us!!"
"Hmmmmph! You think you can take on more of these Origin Wielders than mine can?"
"Hmmmmph! That's exactly what I'm saying!"
"Hmmmmph! Let's compete then!! Let's see who gets the most opponents defeated using their version of Aniue! The loser has to admit that their version of Aniue is the superior one!!"
"Hmmmmph! You're on! I'm going to win anyway!!"
Without waiting for me, she sat back down in the cockpit and the mecha's chest closed up. The machine then rumbled for a moment before shooting up into the sky, joining an entire armada of flying Aniue mechas that had been hovering above this entire time.
No time to lose!! I have to start my massacre or I will lose to that fake little sister!!
I will not give her more excuses to claim that she is better than me!
