Is this really a Game?!

Chapter 580 Taking An Elevator

"That would be all of them, only you are left." Reign said as he stood in front of the elder whose hands were broken. The man had used all of his power to summon multiple peak Tier III monsters in order to at least stall Reign, but none managed to survive for long.

Reign then simply broke the man's hands as the latter tried attacking him before staring at him.

"You bastard, even if you kill us all, as long as the base is connected to the leader, you won't be able to take it over, even if you were to kill him." The elder said with a crazed smile on his face as he stared at Reign.

"And what do you think you are doing with that young man, let him go or kill him, none of us here will ever join you!" The elder said as he glanced at the young man who was shackled.

He had woken up after a couple of seconds, but he couldn't do a thing as his mana was completely suppressed by the chains and cuffs.

"Oh, that guy, the one that your leader chose to be his replacement body?" Reign asked the elder who nodded before his eyes opened wide in shock.

"Yeah, I did notice some irregularities with his soul when he attacked me, it's actually quite simple to figure it out, I did think that your boss planned something like that, he did try to escape with his soul at the end of the battle, so I knew that he definitely had the plan to get a new body, seems like it was this one." Reign said casually before Wolf started walking towards them.

"Sorry, but your leader is truly gone, I got his soul, and I will soon take this base as well, never again will your organization rise in this world." Reign said in a low voice before furious shouts reverberated through the hall.

"How dare you speak like that of my master you bastard!"

"He would never do such a thing, he was always good to us, making sure we were safe and teaching us all that he knew about the different ways to use mana and improve ourselves!"

"You will never be able to sway me with your lies, never!" The young man shouted furiously as he heard Reign's words about him being a new body that the leader planned on taking over.

"That's right, you can lie all you want, you demon, but you will never make us believe your words, never!" The elder shouted with zeal, fully aware that Reign was right, but simply not wanting to let the young man find out the truth, after all, even if Reign knew about the leader wanting to use the young man's body for himself, there was no saying if he could stop him from doing so, perhaps in the future, there might be a chance for the organization to rise once again.

"I know what you are thinking about." Reign said in a low voice as he looked at the elder with a smile.

"You can forget about it, you'll meet your leader in mere moments." Reign said before beheading the elder and capturing his soul, but not taking it into his consciousness.

Reign had taken the souls of all the people they had killed. They were their enemies, so why not take their souls and make them useful in the future?

He knew just how powerful souls could be after using hundreds of them in order to ruin the leader's plans and seal him inside Wolf's sword.

As the elder's soul floated close to Reign, it started shouting at him before suddenly going silent after Wolf came near them. The soul stared at the sword before it started shaking.

It had seen the soul of its leader, but the soul was different. The leader didn't recognize him, nor did he act like he usually did. Reign had used his powers to suppress the elder's soul so that the latter wouldn't be able to speak, before taking him into his consciousness.

"What, what did you do to him?" The elder asked in a low voice as Reign smirked before allowing not only the elder but all the members that were captured by him to see the final moments of their leader.

Reign could do many things inside his consciousness, amongst them was the ability to allow the souls to see some of his memories.

Upon seeing how Reign had used hundreds of souls to attack their leader and damage his soul before sealing him into the sword, the souls all stayed silent. They were also able to see just how their leader was now behaving, with his soul severely damaged, he was no better than a child.

They knew that there was nothing that he would be able to do in the future. He was firmly held by Reign, and there was no chance that he would ever be able to escape from Reign's control.

Even the connection that the leader had with the base was not secure now, with how weak the soul was, the members and the elder were certain that it would take Reign only a bit to break it before taking over the base.

"You don't believe me, that is fine, you'll find out the truth sooner or later," Reign told the young man who was staring at him with hatred in his eyes.

Everyone he knew was gone, killed by the man that was nonchalantly standing in the hall of the main building. He was powerless to do a single thing, he could not fight against someone like him, he already knew that, he already tried to do so.

"Why are you keeping me alive?" The young man asked Reign who looked at him before turning around and making his way deeper inside the building.

"I'm interested in your powers, and the many seals that have been placed on your soul, you may not know about it, but somebody has done some extensive work on it." Reign said before Wolf grabbed the young man and placed him over his shoulder.

"Let's go, it's time to take over this base." Reign said as they made their way toward a platform that was located deeper inside the building.

Reign and Wolf stood on the platform, but nothing happened.

"This should be an elevator, right?" Wolf asked Reign who nodded before pointing at his sword.

"It seems our friend has once again come to a problem, even this little elevator is tough for him to activate, ccc, I truly did expect more from him." Reign said before the soul of the leader started spewing curses at him.

"Of course, I can activate it you moron, it's as easy as moving my hands, I was just lost in my thought, hmph!" The soul said before the elevator started shining and moving up.

"What, who are you talking about, what friend, and how did you activate this?!" The young man asked Reign with a hostile tone while the latter shook his head with a smile on his face.

"Not now, you'll learn soon enough who we are talking about." Reign said to the young man while the soul of the dead leader stared at the young man from inside the sword, confused as to why the young man was so familiar to him.

As they slowly got up and neared the highest point inside the base, which was where the control center, the place where the leader was usually found, was located Reign and Wolf stared up as they could sense a powerful barrier barring them from entry.

"It seems he even blocked this place just in case," Wolf said as Reign nodded at him.

"Yup, let's break it." Reign said as the two of them smiled. Wolf dropped the young man down to the ground before grabbing his sword and slashing upward while Reign did the same.

Lightning and flames shoot up, mixing together before reaching the barrier and smashing against them. Cracks appeared, but the barrier was still not destroyed. After all, the leader knew that his enemies were Tier IV and that if he was gone and they were able to get here, he would need a barrier that was powerful enough to block a couple of hits before the elevator smashed against it, killing anyone who was on it.

"I see, the barrier is not that powerful, but if we wait for too long we get squished, if we use too much power when breaking it, we deal immense damage to what is beyond it, potentially wasting our chance of taking over this base," Reign said with a smirk, surprised that the leader had thought so much ahead.

"Alright, don't use too much mana, we can't have this trip here be for nothing, make sure not to damage the things that are behind the barrier." Reign said as he started pouring mana into his swords while Wolf did the same.

They would not use their abilities, as they could potentially damage the inside of the building.
