Is this really a Game?!

629 Light and Darkness Collide, Explosion Ensues



With the sword aimed straight at his neck, the demon grunted in anger before suddenly going down to his knees. Reign's sword grazed his forehead and opened up a gash on it as well as cutting a part of the demon's horn, but the latter didn't care about it.

With such grievous injuries, the demon knew that it had to do something fast in order to survive. His mace was too slow while his other arm was injured, which meant he couldn't attack with either one of them.

The demon then decided to do what he had previously done. Channeling his demonic energy to his head, his horns turned slightly purple as he headbutted Reign straight in the stomach, making him slide back and grunt in pain. The armor Reign had on deformed slightly from the blow while the demon quickly charged at him and lunged, aiming to hit Reign with his horns once again.

Reign dodged the blow, only to be hit by the mace from the side as he was focused on the horns a bit too much. Reign spit some blood from the blow that was aimed straight at his ribs before slashing down with his sword and cutting the demon's body once again.

The two clashed once more as the demon immediately went for the headbutt while Reign tried to stab him with his sword. Neither one wanted to withdraw their attacks, even though they knew it would be fatal if they were hit by the latter.

Reign suddenly let go of both of his swords before grabbing the horns of the demon. The mace went around his body and did little to no damage thanks to Reign manipulating the head of the demon and placing it right next to him before putting his left arm around his neck.

He quickly grabbed his left hand with the right one before pulling to the side, making the demon growl as the veins on his neck bulged. The demon quickly let go of the mace and grabbed Reign around the waist before using his full strength to hug as tightly as possible, making the metal armor deform and screech.

Both Reign and the demon had bloodthirsty looks on their faces as they went red, but the demon knew that Reign would come out victorious if things continued in this way. He suddenly used his strength and lifted Reign off the ground before slamming him down with full force, making the ground beneath them shake.

The ground around them dented by about half a meter as Reign spat out some blood on the demon's head which he was still holding, but in a different position now. As the demon had lifted him from the ground, Reign knew exactly what the latter was going to do.

He then shifted his body slightly and now, he was holding the demon in a guillotine, with both of his hands locked together. He used his full strength, as well as all the mana he could muster as his arms started glowing, one white, the other one black. His legs were wrapped around the demon's body and it was clear that Reign was not going to let go.

The demon could feel that he was losing strength and that his neck was about to break, so he tried to get out of the position, only to suddenly succeed as Reign let go off him. The demon stared down at Reign in confusion and bewilderment before his eyes opened wide as Reign grabbed his head with both arms.

One fully charged with the power of light, the other with darkness. As Reign allowed the two powers to get out of his arms, they collided, with the demon's head being between them. A collision of two opposing forces was something that would end up with destruction, in this case, a large explosion that injured Reign while it completely destroyed the demon's head.

The explosion had destroyed the armor that covered his arms and left both of them injured, but Reign was still fine, his body was mostly okay from the explosion as the demon's body took the brunt of it, as one could see thanks to the fact his head was gone, his shoulders were blasted away with his two arms being launched in the air while the chest had opened completely, showing the mess that was the inside of the demon's body after the explosion took place.

Reign pushed the body to the side before panting. He didn't wait and used his wings to fly toward one of M'azgara's monsters and grab him before making his way over to the armies that were still locked in battle.

"Defend me, and also kill as many demons as you can." Reign said as he suddenly landed before falling flat on his back as the transformation ended. This time, he was able to use the transformation for longer thanks to the fact it was not his first time, and because he had grown stronger than before.

Still, it was a relatively short period of time that passed since he had transformed, it was just that the speed at which he and the demon had moved was so high that they did quite a lot during that short period of time.

With him on the ground, the demons all stared at him and charged as Lyle landed on the left side of the army. The only two beings present were him and the monster, which was enough. The monster roared before charging at the demon and starting a slaughter while Reign slowly got up on his knees and closed his eyes.

He slowly started recovering, he didn't need much, just a little bit of mana and soul power and he could easily deal with the demons that were trying to attack him, but until then, he had to rely on the monster he brought over here.

The players so Reign and started making their way over there. They knew that he was now weaker than before and could be seriously injured if not even killed by the demons, but thanks to the monster that Reign brought over, they knew that he was not in danger, at least not right now.

A couple of teams made their way over to him, but they didn't move fast as they knew that Reign would be angry if they suddenly diverted their focus to him and stopped fighting as there would definitely be more casualties that way.

They made three teams of 10 people that slowly made their way over to Reign. Their numbers were not high enough to fight against the army, but with a Tier IV monster present, they could rest at ease as it was destroying any demons that tried to get to Reign.

The most powerful demons in the army were locked in battle against the peak and high-grade Tier III combatants of the army, which meant that there were very few high-grade Tier III demons present in the army that were free to attack Reign, and the rest were simply unable to fight against the monster that was guarding Reign.

Of course, even ants could kill an elephant if their numbers were large enough, and the monster was starting to get injured, but it would take quite some time for it to be defeated by the army, not to mention the fact that M'azgara could create another such monster pretty much immediately after the battle as she would gain a ton of nutrients from the corpses of the demons, so the monster living or dying was completely unimportant.

Reign meditated and slowly gathered his strength as the monster was ripping the demons apart until he suddenly opened his eyes as multiple missile-like attacks were launched at him from the back of the army.

The demon casters had grouped up and used their joint strength to prepare powerful spells that they launched at Reign. Thanks to the fact that none of them was a peak or high-grade Tier III demon, the joint spells they cast only had destructive power between high-grade and peak Tier III, but with Reign being injured and weak, it was enough to deal heavy damage.

Or so they thought.

Reign simply extended his left arm and opened his palm at the attacks while a black hole appeared on his palm. As soon as the attacks neared him, they were drawn to the hole and disappeared inside of it, without being able to do a single thing to him.

The attacks that were missed exploded around Reign and made a cloud of dust appear around him, but did little to no damage to him.

As the dust settled, the demons could see Reign on his knees, his eyes closed once again while no damage was visible on his body. The sight made them shocked, as they believed that their strength was enough to at least do some damage.

They didn't falter, however, and continued casting more spells. Reign was seemingly unbothered, but in his mind, he was hoping the three teams he had seen would come over soon as he didn't know just how many times he could use the black hole to defend himself before depleting his mana completely.

He barely had the strength to even stand, which was why he was doing his best to conserve his strength and mana by merely kneeling down and meditating, doing his best to recover as much as he could.
