Is this really a Game?!

“Shit!” Reign cursed as he wiped off the blood that came out of his mouth, fighting against 2 fighters that were of the same level and similar power as him was truly a difficult thing to do. Of course, if he used all of his trump cards the two men would be dead in mere seconds, but doing so would bring more danger to him in the future as the coalition would definitely find out about it, it wasn’t only the kingdom of Riplas that had spies after all.

However it seemed that Reign wouldn’t be able to kill the two without using at least one of his trump cards, not only were both of the enemies incredibly powerful but there was also the large army and defensive array that they could use in order to escape him, because of his mission he truly didn’t want to let such a situation happen as he didn’t know when he would have the chance to kill two powerful enemies again. Of course for now he would continue fighting like this, even though he was at a slight disadvantage right now, the more time passed the weaker his opponents would be, the only reason they were so powerful right now was that they had used everything they had, at least Reign hoped they did. 𝙚𝙙𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝒎

Contrary to them Reign was only using his ability in order to boost himself, the powerful black and white lightning of course needed a lot of mana in order to be used, but thanks to his powerful mana organ, Reign had more than enough mana to fight against them for some time. He of course also glanced at the other two opponents that were currently busy fighting Lieara, Dain, and Ilas, upon seeing that the battles were still locked in a stalemate he breathed out a sigh of relief, he wouldn’t need to save anybody just yet.

Reign of course only had a brief moment to check on the others before the two enemies arrived. Yufan was once again using the powerful scimitar to send a bloody sword light at Reign while Sios was only visible for a brief moment before Reign lost track of him. He quickly put his katana back in its sheath before using [ Severing, Sword Two ] in order to match the attack of Yufan. The two attacks clash in mid-air as a shockwave once again sweeps the surrounding land, for Reign however the danger had still not passed.

He quickly grabbed his broken sword and turned around in order to block the attack of Sios who had suddenly appeared behind him. Thanks to Reign’s great reflexes and great speed he was able to successfully block the attack before using his katana in order to stab at Sios who quickly withdrew. Of course, Reign wasn’t about to let the man simply disappear again and quickly chased after him, only to be stopped by another attack of Yufan.

Reign grit his teeth as he didn’t stop, he put his faith in his powerful armor and the broken sword which he was using in order to block the attack while still running toward Sios. The attack arrived and Reign was sent flying once again, the difference was that this time it was exactly what he wanted, instead of blocking or dodging the attack, which was what Yufan wanted him to do, he used it to propel himself at Sios who had his eyes opened wide in shock.

Of course, such a tactic didn’t come without any repercussion either, even though Reign had used his sword in order to meet the attack, thanks to him still running he wasn’t able to block it, the sword light had pushed his sword all the way to his back before sending him flying. His back hurt like hell and Reign was sure that if the attack was a bit stronger it could have potentially damaged his spine, but luckily something like that didn’t happen and he only suffered from some bruising and internal injuries, which although were much better than a broken back, were still serious in their own right.

Sios never expected Reign to actually do something as risky as that, the attack from Yufan wasn’t a simple one and he knew how much power was put behind it. Of course, neither of them knew that Reign’s armor would defend against powerful attacks, and luckily for him he still had the skill available.

Thanks to that, and his sword, Reign was able to come out with relatively small injuries, and before Sios could respond to the situation he had already attacked him. His katana transformed into a lightning lance as he stabbed Sios with it, the man hastily tried to dodge the attack and was somewhat successful. Instead of the lance penetrating through his chest, like Reign had intended it to, it had only managed to stab the left side of his torso, even though a large chunk of it was now gone and one could even see Sios’s ribs, the man was still alive and he could continue the fight, albeit not in the same manner as before.

The damage from Reign’s lightning lance had not only managed to leave a large wound on Sios, but the black and white lightning that lingered continued to not only damage him further, but it also gave away his position as well, even if he was to become invisible again Reign would be able to spot him.

Yufan quickly charged at Reign with fury after seeing what had happened, not only did his previous attempt of stopping Reign and helping his comrade fail, but it even allowed for Reign to deliver a surprise attack that almost took Sios’s life. The bloody scimitar fell down on Reign with great power as the latter quickly used his two swords in order to block it, the power behind the attack forced Reign to go down on one knee before managing to stop it. He quickly crossed his two swords and allowed the scimitar to slide down the broken sword.

With his katana now free Reign quickly slashed at the exposed stomach of Yufan, only to deliver a shallow wound that was quickly closed by the mana armor. Even though he didn’t manage to wound Yufan, it was enough as he now knew that the mana armor that covered his body was no longer as powerful as it was before. Such an attack would previously barely do anything but this time he even managed to cut through the mana armor, which meant that the next time he attacked he could very well break through the defense completely and deliver some serious damage to the man.

Sios had already taken out a red flask from a spatial ring he possessed, he quickly drank half of the content of the flask before spraying the rest on the wound he had received. The concoction inside the flask was a health potion of sorts and they always carried a couple with them, even though the health potion wouldn’t immediately close the wound and regenerate the flesh and muscle tissue, it would be enough to stop the bleeding and make the wound less painful during the battle.

Immediately after using the potion, Sios quickly joined the battle once again, his sickle cut through the air with great speed as he had thrown it toward Reign. Even though both of his enemies had become weaker during the battle, it was still incredibly difficult for Reign to fight both of them simultaneously. The two were not only seasoned fighters, but it was obvious that they had also fought side-by-side many times before. Not only were they able to cover each other perfectly with their different fighting styles, but they were also very good at exploiting any openings they might find.

Sios used his chain and sickle to attack Reign from a distance while Yufan was fighting him at close-range. Of course, in order to not be in each other’s way, Yufan and Sios positioned themselves on opposite sides, Yufan attacked Reign from the front while Sios tried his best to stay behind him, occasionally attacking him from left or right as well. The combined efforts of the two slowly started paying off as Reign simply couldn’t block all of the attacks and had started receiving wounds.

Seeing how they were slowly winning, the two further increased their aggression, oblivious to the fact that they were depleting their mana faster and faster while Reign was saving his. Even though he was receiving injuries, it didn’t matter, as long as he could force the two to deplete their mana he would not only be victorious, but he would also be able to kill them both.

On the other hand, the two had slowly started getting slower and slower, even though it was minuscule in the beginning, after a while Reign was clearly able to dodge and block their attacks more effectively, in their eyes it seemed as if Reign was becoming stronger with each passing second, of course, the reality was the opposite. By the time the two had realized that it was already too late.
