Erik woke up at dawn. Most of the group was still sleeping, exhausted from their journey, but Mickey and Aaron had already left to start their search of the lab.
"June," Erik called his clone. "Get five Chimaeric Demons ready. We are going to search for the Mirror Centipede."
The clone did as he was asked and came back to the ground floor, followed by his much more powerful brothers.
"Did you rest well?"
"Yes, master."
Erik nodded. "Good. I called you here because I need your help to search for a Mirror Centipede."
Erik didn't tell them about his plans the previous day, given how tired they were. I knew that if he told the clones what he was planning, they would have offered themselves to go search in the middle of the night, which wasn't what Erik needed.
"According to the Blackguards data we got at the Law Gate, there should be some mirror centipedes nearby. I want to make a new power out of it, one that would allow me to scout without you having to rely on you guys."
