Chapter 335 The Intense Battle Continues

Name:Is this really a Game?! Author:
The battle between Reign and the three raged on, the more time passed the more wounds could be seen on Reign's body, even though they were all small cuts and bruises, they would surely start affecting him later on.

Reign thought of what to do next, should he continue fighting like this, or should he perhaps use one of his three trump cards. Even though he was managing to barely defend himself against the crazy barrage of attacks that the three men sent his way if things continued this way he might get seriously injured before having the chance to attack the king.

As the wounds piled up, Reign decided that it was enough, if he continued this way then he would simply become too damaged and weak when the time came to attack the king. The mark on his body suddenly started shining and the three men immediately jumped back as a great amount of lightning suddenly burst out of Reign.

The amount of power the mark gave him wasn't low, in the beginning, he had no idea how to use it or what it was even for. Every time the mark was activated it was by chance, the same went for all the others. It was only later that when they managed to get higher control over mana and their abilities that they were able to sense the power of the mark and tap into it every time they willed it.

The battle immediately took a turn after Reign used his mark, not only was his lightning more powerful now, but his mana was also denser and more powerful, thus allowing him to not only strengthen his body further and more effectively, but he was also able to deal more damage with not only his normal attacks but his skills as well.

[ Severing, Sword One ]

Reign immediately launched an attack at Gardo who had jumped further and was still in the air, the timing of the attack was almost perfect and it left Gardo with no choice but to block the attack with his giant hammer and be blown away.

With one enemy being sent away, Reign was able to focus on the other two. Idrel was the one that was the most annoying enemy to fight amongst the three thanks to his weird vines and area of control skills. With that in mind, Reign attacked Luin first, the reasoning was quite simple, during the whole battle it was Luin that was pretty much the weak link. With his ability pretty much being negated by Reign's own ability which was still hidden from him and remained a mystery.

Even the attacks that Luin would launch from time to time wouldn't do much to Reign, but it had to be known that most of the wounds he suffered came from Luin. With that in mind, he was quite eager to take care of the young man who continued being a nuisance.

Of course, that was mostly a feint. Reign wasn't considering killing any of the three yet and he was even conserving some power as he didn't want them to know just how powerful he was yet. That would also help when it came to attacking and killing the king later in the fight.

Luin quickly used his sword to meet Reign's attack, even though his weapon skill gave him a boost together with the armor he had, he was still unable to fully block Reign's attack which was simply too fast for him. After exchanging about 20 hits, Luin had already suffered a couple of cuts before Reign switched it up and kicked the young man with a roundhouse kick to the left side of Luin's body.

The kick, powered by the lightning that coiled around Reign, was not only incredibly fast, but also packed quite some power behind it. Luin was immediately sent flying away and only managed to land after about 10 meters. He held the left side of his body as he winced. The kick not only made him go flying, but he could also feel that it might have cracked a rib or two. Luckily it seemed that nothing was broken and he would be fine after a couple of seconds.

Idrel arrived the moment Reign had kicked Luin away, of course, Reign had already noticed that and that was actually the primary reason as to why he decided to kick the man. Not only would Idrel's appearance complicate things, but he might even force Reign to use a bit more power if he joined forces with Luin and Gardo who were currently running over.

Vines immediately sprung up from the ground in an attempt to bind Reign. The attempt however was useless, Reign was completely covered in lightning now and it was also denser and more powerful compared to before. The vines would simply get annihilated by the powerful lightning before managing to do anything.

Thanks to that, Idrel was forced to change his tactic. Trying to overwhelm Reign with almost a hundred vines was no longer a viable tactic when all the vines now did was get destroyed from simply touching him. Instead, he used his ability and cut down the number of vines to about 15, all of them were darker in color and thicker compared to before. The new vines, thanks to being strengthened were tougher compared to the ones that Idrel previously used and could ignore Reign's lightning to an extent.

Fwoosh

Suddenly a shadow could be seen approaching Reign with great speed, as Reign looked up he could see Gardo crashing down on him. That was one of Gardo's skills, it was quite similar to Tank's [ Wrecking Ball ] skill where most of his mana would suddenly be channeled to his legs which would allow him to jump incredibly high before crashing down on his opponent.

Contrary to Tank, however, Gardo didn't have an ability that made his body so tough and in turn, he would simply jump incredibly high before bringing his giant hammer down on the opponent, smashing anything in his way.

Reign immediately dodge the attack, even though Luin had sent several sword lights at him and Idrel used his vines to their fullest in order to block him, it was all for naught as Reign's speed made him almost impossible to contain.

Gardo crashed down on the ground, his hammer hit the ground as a large dent was suddenly made, the area about 3 meters around Gardo was pushed down by about 5cm and many cracks could be seen coming from the point of impact.

The power behind such an attack was something that even Reign wouldn't dare take lightly. Even with the mark activated and his power being boosted he wasn't confident about taking on such a powerful attack head-on. His strength stat is quite high for someone that should specialize in speed, but compared to someone whose ability complemented his strength, he was simply not a match.

As they continued fighting the situation on the top of the wall continued to be one of pure carnage. Thanks to the boost from Raigon's array, Lieara, Dain, Ilas and the other soldiers were all able to take on the enemy elites, of course, the boost only made them about even and it was still an incredibly tough fight.

Raigon had even joined the fight with the power of his array, acting in a similar manner to the Judge he was able to manipulate the mana from the array and form weapons that would be launched at the enemy. Thanks to him the battle was in their favor, but many had still died.

Lieara was still fighting the leader of the army, originally he was stronger than her by a bit, but thanks to the boost she was able to get an edge over him. She was spotlessly clean as the purple mana coating her didn't allow any blood to fall on her, the top of the wall however was covered in blood that flew down to the battlefield and the inside of their territory.

As they fought however something changed. An incredibly dense and powerful wave of mana suddenly appeared and washed over all of them, even Reign and the three stopped fighting for a moment before looking back at one area of the battlefield which was considered to be a zone of death that nobody dared enter.

The ground was filled with pits and holes, there were even some large cuts that seemed to go deep inside the ground. The walls of the gorge were no batter as there were even some parts that had cracked. All of that was of course from the battle between the Judge and the king. Neither of the two was reserving any strength and have been fighting with all of their power for some time.

The Judge had a broken arm that dangled lifelessly while the king had some blood seeping out from the corner of his mouth. It was evident that the Judge was still the one that had the disadvantage, but after suffering an injury and being forced to spill blood, the king had decided to use his weapon skill and end this whole thing.
