Ding!
[You gained 500000 Divine Power]
[The [Doppelganger (A)] Divine Ability has Ranked up to S Rank]
[You acquired [Fragment of Divinity of Alter Ego]
Oh, this isn't even the trial rewards.
When I walked outside the room, I received a sizable reward not from the trial rewards, which had yet to be given out, but this was actually the power I gained by absorbing my Alter Ego.
Incredible… so he held so much power within him.
"Could this be because the Alter Ego was made out with the power of the Frost Tower?" I wondered.
[It is certainly a possibility. It was very powerful. You're truly lucky it never engaged in a fight, it was strong enough to be a big challenge if you fought]
"Wait, what?! So they can fight?"
[Certainly, but there might be some conditions to trigger a fight, perhaps responding badly to their words, or something… But it appears you resolved things masterfully peacefully]
"Huh, so it is like that, eh?" I sighed.
[More importantly, you're back to one million Divine Power, Drake]
"I know, pretty good, huh? I need a bit more and I could actually get to Rank Up once more…" I said with a smirk. "Being Rank 7 Peak Stage is surely a huge boost in power, right?"
[It will be. But I remend Ranking Up only when you have more Divine Power accumulated, to not end with nothing]
"You're right…"
As I said that, I looked into my Status.

Aside from the gains in Divine Power, my Doppelganger Ability had gone up to S Rank out of nowhere, gaining even more power now. My Clones now shared even more % of my total strength and making more Doppelganger would cost less Divine Power as well.
And not only that, but I even got yet another Divinity Fragment. The last one I had was that of Blood, which I got from the leftover divine power left by Ruby's Pendant powers when they activated by her bloodline, teleporting her away.
This one fragment is "Alter Ego" whatever that even means.
"System, can I fuse Divinity Fragments together?"
[Calculating…]
[Yes, it should be possible]
[Create a Divinity by fusing the [Divine Fragment of Blood] and the [Divinity Fragment of Alter Ego]?]
"Huh, so I can actually do this… Does it costs Divine Power?"
[There is no cost]
"Huh…"
[However, fusing these two fragments might only create an inferior Divinity, if you can gather more fragments, a stronger one might be born from fusing such fragments…]
"Yeah, I guess as much. Well, let's leave it for later then."
As I walked outside the room, I quickly found everybody else in the room we were some minutes ago. I had only received a single call from Charlotte who needed assistance, but the rest all had managed to handle their challenge trials alone.
The moment I walked outside, Benladann ran to my side and hugged me tightly. I felt slightly surprised by the suddenness of the situation, but I embraced her back without asking why she hugged me suddenly. I was merely guessing, but I could tell she might had gone through something very hard. These trials are harsh and might had probably hurt her feelings.
"Are you alright?" I asked worriedly.
"Yeah… I just… I learned things I never thought I knew about." Benladann said.
"Things you never thought you knew about?" I wondered.
"I… Well… We can discuss this later." Said Benladann, smiling slightly faintly, as Miranda appeared at her side.
"Yeah, let's leave the heavy stuff after everyone gathers, we'll have a break after this, right?" She wondered.
"Ah, yeah… We'll do. I was thinking in taking a good break." I said.
As we spoke, more people appeared one after the other, until everyone showed up. Some seemed just the same as they entered, others seemed melancholic and filled with sorrowful expressions, and some others seemed to be in silence. I saw Charlotte and Yuki looking tired but slightly happy.
"Are you all done?" I wondered. "Yeah, everybody is here… It does seem to be the case… Tower, we are done."
Suddenly, a big message made out of magic particles emerged before our eyes, flashing with words.
[The Trial has been pleted]
[The Path towards Trial 3-3 has been opened]
[Now face the last challenge, which not even the creator of the tower was able to defeat]
"What? Not even the Venerable?" Asked Hector while looking like he had just cried a lot.
"This is… how can we even plete such a challenge?" Asked Kraxka.
"Something not even the Venerable is capable of acplishing?" Wondered Larzak.
"Aren't Venerables unparalleled in their Eras? What was there that the Frost Queen was incapable of defeating?" Rakasha asked slightly grumpily.
"Ugh, this sucks, I already went a lot of shit. I want to go back to bed, Drake!" Yuki plained.
"Yuki, don't be like that, we are already here. We must oblige with our duty…" Charlotte said.
"Guys, calm down. I don't have any plans in moving forward right now. In fact, I was thinking in camping here and take the next ten hours to rest. Let's have a meal and then everybody can go to sleep as much as you want before we go to the next trial. The time dilation here should be enough for time in here to go fast enough for us to be able to easily take it easy after the second trial."
I quickly calmed down my large group, as they all seemed to agree. They began taking out their things, sitting down, some began sharing food while others were just resting while putting their backs over the walls. Everyone was rather exhausted. I decided to quickly begin making some food to lift their spirits for a bit.
