Is this really a Game?!

Chapter 101 Fighting Raegan

Reign and Raegan collide, the sword hits the steel-like finger and sparks actually come out from the collision. Lightning erupts everywhere around them as Reign continues with his frenzy of attacks with a wild smile on his face.

Raegan was smiling too, it was as if he had found an interesting toy to play with. None of the three people that came with him knew what he was thinking, fighting a mortal, one that even initiated the attack? That was completely different than what most would do, even if the mortal in question had the mark of Zeus.

Reign and Raegan's eyes meet and they both show joy in what was happening.

A couple of minutes ago.

Kristy and Aurroth were still approaching Tank and Beast while Reign was staring straight ahead at Raegan who was looking at the city. He didn't know why but he wanted to fight this man, he knew it would be pointless, the difference between their power was probably greater than he could even imagine.

And yet, he wanted to fight.

( Fight. )

The voice from before speaks to him again. This was the first time since he had destroyed the puppeteer's soul. He was already beginning to think it was just his imagination back than, but the voice was real, for some reason every word the voice said resonated from deep inside him.

( Just a high-tier ###, what are you scared of Reign, fight him.)

The ethereal voice was encouraging him to follow his emotions, something Reign rarely did as he always tried to remain rational in any kind of situation.

( What are you scared of, you are a n#######, we are fearless, we are warriors that destroy everything in our path!)

The voice suddenly turns angry as Reign's thoughts become known to it. Suddenly Reign could no longer see the dungeon, his party, and the people that had just approached him.

The image in front of him was blurry as if he was looking at something with his eyes half-closed. He was sure of one thing, he was looking at a battlefield, a huge battlefield where mountains of corpses and rivers of blood could be seen.

It was hell.

? Soldiers could be seen fighting everywhere, on the ground, in the air, there were even explosions happening far away from the battlefield as colorful lines could be seen far above him. There were even battles in space.

"Where am I," Reign asks as he tries to look around but finds himself incapable of doing anything but looking. His body suddenly moves, no, it was not his body, he was actually looking through the eyes of someone else.

The person slowly gets up, his body was badly damaged and blood could be seen flowing from his arms that were in front. He slowly moves forward, limping towards a part of the battlefield.

Suddenly

There was a huge amount of mana exploding from the ground near the soldier. A stream of white and black was piercing straight up towards the void. The wind blows and the mountains of corpses get blown away, the blood was blown as well and now there was a blood rain that was falling down on everyone.

The battle had stopped, everyone was looking at the place of the mana explosion. There was a man there, Reign was sure of it. The soldier he was in couldn't see the man clearly though, but Reign had a weird feeling of familiarity with the blurry figure in the distance.

Tens of figures come down from the void and stop in the air above the man. Hovering above him some angrily shout at him while others show a defensive posture, clearly aiming to save the man from the enemies.

With a swipe of his hand, a wave of mana was shot at the enemies. The mana was a mixture of black and white and it was clear the people were alarmed by it. Before they could do anything it arrives and it easily kills a couple of them. With blinding speed, the man was now behind them.

Punches, kicks, even hand chops were used by the man. Each hit carried an enormous amount of power behind it and nobody was able to defend themselves against him. In mere seconds all the enemies were dead, their bodies slowly falling down to the ground.

Reign was looking at all of this with shock on his face. The man's actions looked simple and without effort but he was clearly able to see the ground and the heavens themselves changing with every hit. Huge holes were made in the ground from his punches. Clouds were blown away every time he kicked and gorges were made with every swing of his hand.

The whole battlefield had changed, soldiers could be seen on their knees with eyes full of disbelief while others were cheering, it seems that the battle was won.

Reign feels drowsy suddenly and slowly starts closing his eyes. The last thing he was able to see was the man looking down on him. He could swear that he smiled at him.

There was something else as well.

The man clearly wasn't human, he couldn't have been.

There were wings on his back.

Reign regains himself and sees that he was still in the dungeon. Beast and Tank were talking with the two that had come to them.

( Did you see it, we are invincible, fight him, stop fighting against yourself and what you are, just fight that man.)

Reign was full of fighting spirit after seeing the scene on the battlefield. Looking straight towards the man he was contemplating whether or not he should try it.

"I can feel your gaze y'know?" There was suddenly a different voice in his head. With shock Reign sees the man smiling at him.

"Just simple telepathy dear boy." Raegan's voice echoes inside his head again.

"You can do it you know, attack me I mean." Reign widens his eyes as he hears the words. The man sighs after seeing his reaction.

"Your battle intent was quite obvious boy, but that's exactly why I find you interesting, why are you so intent on fighting me, you do know that the gulf separating us is enormous right?"

Reign nods to the man as he listens.

"And yet you still wish to fight me, why?" Raegan again asks while Reign simply shrugs his shoulders in response, he truly didn't know why he wished to fight him so much. Raegan smiles at him in response before turning to the side and facing him.

"Then do it, boy, let me see what exactly you can do." Reign's smile deepens as he suddenly bursts into action.

"Don't do anything." Raegan's voice was heard in Kristy's head together with the other two, they were perplexed by his words before they sensed a mana fluctuation and Reign speeding past them to attack him.

And now they were fighting. Reign was feeling full of mana as he used his lightning body to its fullest. His body was coated with lighting as his hair was standing up. Jumping in the air he suddenly creates a spear of lightning in his left hand before throwing it at Raegan who simply cranks his neck sideways and lets it pass by him. The spear explodes in a violent fashion in the air behind him as he had already cast a huge barrier around them as to not alarm the hobgoblins in the distance.

More lightning spears were thrown soon. Lightning bullets were often as well while Reign was constantly switching from short-range to long-range attacks.

Raegan was simply defending and smiling all this time, sometimes he would wave his arm to push Reign away before flicking his fingers and launching small invisible projectiles at him. Reign was able to dodge and block all of them with no big difficulty.

Suddenly Raegan's eyes widen a bit as he meets Reign's gaze. Reign's eyes were now white and black respectfully.

His right eye was white and shined so brilliantly that it could blind a normal person immediately while his left eye was like a black hole, hungrily devouring everything in front of it.

"Impossible," Raegan whispers and disappears from the spot. Immediately he was in front of Reign, staring deeply at his eyes. Reign was caught off guard and tried to jump back and create some distance between them, but Raegan quickly grabbed him by his throat and lifts him up.

"Boy, what are you?" Raegan asks him in wonder while still looking into his eyes.

"Reign!" Wolf and the others quickly move towards Reign before they suddenly stop. Aurroth was looking straight at them.

"Don't interfere, you're friend will be alright." Wolf and the others don't calm down at all after hearing his words and struggle to move as an invisible pressure was bearing down on them.

"W-what do you mean?" Reign asks Raegan with difficulty.

"You know exactly what I mean boy, I recognize these eyes, but it should be impossible, there should be no-"

"I would appreciate it if you stop speaking and leave little Rae."

A voice was heard behind him suddenly. Raegan widens his eyes in shock as he looks around himself.

Gray.

Desolate.

Still.

That was how he would describe his surroundings right now. Time had stopped, even for the three that came with him, that should be impossible.

"I should have known it was you." Raegan smiles bitterly as he tries to stop himself from shaking. Fear could be seen in his eyes as he tries his all to stay calm.

"Why are you here, why is this boy-"

"It seems my words don't have much meaning to you now huh?"

Suddenly Raegan feels excruciating pain in his head, he felt as if someone was hitting his brain with a hammer.

"Leave little Rae, and don't speak about what happened here to no one, otherwise I will have to visit you again."

The voice disappears suddenly as time starts flowing again. Raegan calms himself down and lets go of Reign.

"Control yourself, next time boy, it seems you are still in the beginning phase, don't listen to the thing inside of you alright?" Raegan smiles at the now-shocked Reign before disappearing with the others with a wave of his arm.
