"You need to defeat this little one here." Time stated as the slime like monsters suddenly morphed perfectly to become like Adrian.

The body of the slime mimicked Adrian but one can truly see that it is an inferior copy. The slime itself still looked like the color of the slime as Adrian is not a shade of dark brown. Even the equipment that Adrian had is copied perfectly except that it is in a shade of light and dark brown as well.

[You have been copied by an Ultra Mimic Slime.]

[The Ultra Mimic Slime has been enhanced by Time just for this combat.]

==

Monster Name: Ultra Mimic Slime

Monster Tier: Legendary

Monster Species: Ultra Mimic Slime

Monster Race: Slime

Health: 100%

Mana: 100%

Description: A slime that is said to mimic any being that it copies. It is said that it can copy even the exact same spell that the target it mimics will cast. One must be able to be confident in defeating themselves as it will also copy the weakness of the being it copied. Another way to defeat is have it copy another person while one of your party members defeats it using the weakness they know of. Never attack this monster alone as it is said to produce high casualty rate since it has infinite stamina.

"You just need to defeat a copy of yourself." Time stated as it floated away as Adrian and the Ultra Mimic Slime looked at each other to start the battle.

Adrian even brought out his sword armament, but the Ultra Mimic Slime managed to copy it as well. The armament was not like his real one, but it acted completely similar. Adrian knows that his armaments could not be imitated by monsters that can mimic but it seems that the Ultra Mimic Slime is enhanced by Time to do just that. Since they are now in a suspended animation space, Time has complete control over everything that happens and can easily bend the laws of nature as well.

"So, this is the true power of a Time God. They can bend the laws of nature while time is frozen. No wonder they were decided to be killed first by the enemy. The scariest thing is that they were killed even with this ability." Adrian thought as he clashed with the Ultra Mimic Slime a couple of times.

The Ultra Mimic Slime was just like its name as it perfectly copied Adrian's attack and attack patterns to the point that he was getting parried. The Ultra Mimic Slime is not like his inner demons that fought him as they usually have the upper hand. The Ultra Mimic Slime is a perfect copy of him to counter him as it somehow has the preset condition to copy Adrian without a problem as if it has precognition.

"Let us check with these attacks then." Adrian stated as he once again attacked the Ultra Mimic Slime, but he added feints in his attack pattern.

Adrian looked like he was going to attack the head, but he was actually going for the shoulder. He executed this perfectly and even opened his own head to be attacked. If the Ultra Mimic Slime does copy everything then Adrian will know with this. As Adrian changed his sword's path, the Ultra Mimic Slime did as well and did not even go for his vulnerable head. The clash of swords could be heard as Adrian and the Ultra Mimic Slime were once again at odds using the same attack.

He tried another tactic as well by adding two additional feints. Adrian easily added feints into his attack pattern and used the way the Ultra Mimic Slime copied him. As soon as he was about to reach the neck of the Ultra Mimic Slime via his sword, Adrian drops it, and the Ultra Mimic Slime actually did so as well. Without any warning, Adrian made a punch that actually landed on the face of the Ultra Mimic Slime, but he was also punched as well.

"Ouch! Reversal!" Adrian stated as he casted Reversal on himself to heal the wounds he received.

The Ultra Mimic Slime copied what Adrian did as well and healed itself using Reversal perfectly. The fight is once again back to the start as both of them are back to full health. The only difference is that Adrian can now see the dreaded future that awaits him. Unlike him that used mana to heal himself, the Ultra Mimic Slime did not use any.

"That is not fair." Adrian stated as he pointed towards the Ultra Mimic Slime, but the latter also did the same.

The Ultra Mimic Slime copied all of his gestures and mannerisms but never used any resources. This must be another enchantment used by Time to enhance the monster before them. Adrian would have definitely won if the mana of the Ultra Mimic Slime will also be used up whenever it uses spells. Temporal Magic is tricky since being inexperienced will make one use more mana than one will want to.

"That is the test, Equinox. You must defeat a perfect copy of your actions and self that is enhanced by myself." Time stated as it believed that Adrian will never complete this trial.

Time has issued the same rules for every trial, and no one has ever passed this second one. A Legendary Temporal Skill book is something that is already in the realm of gods should they completely master it which is why the second test has such high difficulty. All of the challengers have already conceded and just accepted the Epic tier skill book as a reward because they could not defeat the Ultra Mimic Slime. They could not defeat the copy of themselves despite their determination.

The Ultra Mimic Slime cannot speak which means only the challenger side can quit the battle. Some even tried to prolong the fight by taking time to rest but they all succumbed to mental fatigue. Being inside an area where time is suspended is not healthy for the mind. One would miss all the vises that they do and the hobbies that they are already accustomed of doing. Time believed that such is true even for demons as even they need to be in their usual routine or else they will lose their sanity.

"I think I have an idea. Still, an opportunity like this has never presented itself before. I will gladly us this for training." Adrian stated as his inner battle junkie suddenly flared up. Adrian started attacking the Ultra Mimic Slime once more but this time he was not doing any feints. He was attacking the enemy using his usual attack patterns. Time was frozen in place as he thought that Adrian has finally lost his mind. He could see the demon attacking the Ultra Mimic Slime and uttering 'Oh! So, that is the weakness' while smiling like a crazed battle

maniac.

Of all the challengers that he greeted, Time has never seen anyone that will willingly attack the Ultra Mimic Slime just to see their own weaknesses. A lot of beings prefer to never know their weakness as they fear that knowing it will make others use it as weapons against them. This is his first time seeing another being using an enhanced Ultra Mimic Slime as its training partner. Adrian even used every armament in his possession to test everything.

"Such a shame. If only I could use my soulbounds then I would have tested more." Adrian stated but Time suddenly looked tired looking at him.

"Does this mean that you concede, Equinox?" Time asked as Adrian did not attack the Ultra Mimic Slime for a long time.

"Oh! I was just resting while I congregated the useful data that I got from battling myself. I am not giving up because I have already solved the trial once again." Adrian stated which made Time look at him with interested eyes except he cannot see Time's eyes due to the hood. "Reversal!" Adrian stated as the target for Reversal was the Ultra Mimic Slime.

Just like the Adrian, the Ultra Mimic Slime used Reversal on Adrian. Time though that Adrian was doing something futile, but he did not stop using it on the enemy and he had no thought of stopping. The scene of the two beings reversing time on themselves looked incredibly funny as Adrian walked backwards but that is also the case for the Ultra Mimic Slime. Adrian reversed the time up to the point that the Ultra Mimic Slime was unsummoned from the rift as it returned back to where it came from. Time laughed heartily as someone finally solved the second trial that no one has ever done so before.
