Chapter 200: Fighting against himself
The A.I. that controls the clone is perfect—it's as if everything is calculated. It knows exactly which moves to use and when, whether to attack or defend.
And that's its weakness—because it follows a set pattern.
It lacks the instincts and unpredictability of a human who can think outside the system.
Dave could fight it indefinitely as long as he analyzed its methods, predicting its next move. Once he recognized the repetitive patterns, the battle became easier.
From a general point of view, fighting an A.I. that can perfectly mimic your skills is one of the hardest challenges.
Yet, this was what Dave excelled at.
It had already been over 13 minutes since the battle began, but thanks to Madara's passive skill, which allows for infinite stamina as long as one is in combat gave him plenty of time to think and analyze its patterns.
This was the key to survival—never letting your mind go idle.
Even in battle, the moment you stop thinking, you're as good as dead.
Dave exhaled slowly, his grip tightening around his sword. The clone in front of him mirrored his movements perfectly, as if staring into a reflection that could strike back with the same deadly precision.
The battle had already stretched beyond fifteen minutes, an eternity in combat. Every exchange of blows was like a violent chess match, with neither side gaining a decisive advantage.
