Is this really a Game?!

Chapter 700 Reign And Laura Explore The Planet Together

?

"What the hell, why are you here?!" Reign asked Laura who was thinking of the same thing. None of them had ever before been sent to the same planet for the evolution challenge, and none of them expected to be sent to the same planet either.

"Well, I have already been here twice, so the better question to ask is why you were sent here?" Laura asked as Reign blinked.

"Wait, you've already been here before, so … this is the demon-infested planet?"

"Yes, the soil, the fire that you can sometimes see spewing out from the cracks, the lack of any vegetation, and the heat is the same as the planet I had been to before, not to mention the two suns that you can see."

Right after Laura had finished talking, Reign looked up, and lo and behold, there were two suns high up in the sky, but, something was off about one of them.

It was red.

And the feeling Reign had when looking at it was weird, he felt incredibly uncomfortable, as well as a bit angry.

"That appeared only after demons had taken over much of the territory, the planet used to have only one sun, but now, the demonic star had appeared as well, and that was why the temperature is so high all the time." Laura said with a sigh before walking forward.

"I guess we should find a good vantage point in order to check where we are first, right?"

"Yeah, let's do that." Reign said absent-mindedly as he was thinking of why the system would send him here.

From what he had learned, all Nephilims seemed to hate demons, and he as well had a strong innate hate of them, each time he saw one, he would immediately go for the kill, not sparing the demon at all.

He didn't know why the system brought him here, but it was definitely because of the demons. His race had a strong connection with demons, well, it was a strong dislike, a hatred for demons more than a sort of connection. 

He walked forward with Laura for a couple of minutes, neither one of them uttering a single word as they looked around. Laura had reminded him to be wary of his surroundings as there was no way for her to guess where they were right now, and what they might come across.

The demons ruled most of the planet with an iron fist, and the rare human havens did their best to fight them back but were failing at doing so thanks to the fact they had fewer numbers, as well as fewer top combatants compared to the demons.

Hell, if the demons truly wanted to, Laura was certain that they could have conquered the planet by now as they had multiple beings that were a realm above the strongest humanity had, but they rarely showed themselves for some reason.

The most powerful demons on the planet were Tier VI, and even though they didn't know how many of them were present, so far, only a handful had ever been seen, and each time they appeared, carnage followed.

Humanity here had some Tier V combatants and they acted as the leaders of the regions. The demons had more Tier V combatants, and since it had been a while since Laura had last come here, there was no saying whether humanity had managed to defend all their regions or not, and whether more of the demons had reached Tier VI.

Of course, humanity had three people who were peak Tier V, and they might have even managed to reach Tier VI by now, but that was a difficult thing to do and there was no saying whether or not they had managed to do so.

Laura and Reign walked for minutes before seeing a hill nearby. They immediately walked over to the hill, and during this time, Reign was absent-minded while Laura was quite nervous for some reason.

She had been here twice, formed strong bonds with some of the people here, and fought side-by-side with them. She had a reputation here, but none of that was why she was nervous. 

This was the first time she and Reign were alone during a mission, but that didn't matter either. Laura did have a favorable impression of Reign, and you could say she did have a crush on him, but she wasn't in love with him or anything like that, so spending time alone with him, although a bit awkward for Laura, was not enough to make her so nervous.I think you should take a look at

The main reason was because of the stories she had told to the inhabitants of the planet, and she was praying that they wouldn't arrive at the same region she had been to twice right now.

As they climbed atop the hill, both Laura and Reign lay down on the ground and looked around the area. It was a wasteland around them, but there were some demons that they could see in the distance. From what Reign could sense, they shouldn't be powerful as the more powerful a being, the stronger a sense he could get when they weren't purposely hiding their auras.

Of course, that wasn't hard to do, but Reign would also gain a feeling whenever he sensed beings, and the stronger the feeling, the more dangerous and powerful the enemy was. Not to mention the fact that he was very sensitive to demons and could actually sense them from further away compared to other beings.

Reign and Laura glanced at each other before making their way toward one of the groups that were closest to them. They were both hiding their auras and making sure that the demons wouldn't sense them before getting close to the group.

Upon coming close, Laura's eyes widened as her anger grew. She actually lost control over her mana for a moment, allowing it to release outside and alert the demons who quickly stared in their direction.

"Tch." Reign clicked his tongue as lightning appeared around him. He quickly charged at the group of demons who were only able to see a blur and lightning before he arrived. He took out his sword and slashed at one of them, decapitating the demon in an instant before punching another in the stomach and forcing him to fall down on the ground.

In seconds, the group of 5 demons was defeated, and Laura quickly came to him while other groups of demons who were nearby started running away after sensing the dangerous mana that had appeared from Reign.

"I understand why you lost control, and I know that the sight was not a pretty one, but you have been here twice already so you must have known such things happen, as well as seen some similar things, so you need to make sure to control yourself." Reign said as he looked at Laura before putting a hand on her shoulder.

"I'm not saying this because I'm angry or anything, but because if the enemy was more powerful, your previous actions would have placed us in danger, not to mention that if you are alone, such things could spell your end, alright." Laura bit her lower lip in frustration before nodding at Reign.

He was right, she had seen such things before, and sometimes, she lost her cool, just like she did now.

But the sight was just too much for her at this moment. She was thinking a lot about what to do if they reached the same region she had always been to, she was thinking of why the system sent her and Reign together, and much more, and then she was the horrible sight.

There weren't only demons present in the group, but two humans, two girls to be more specific, as well.

Both were naked, their bodies covered in bruises and cuts as the demons had started ravaging them in the open, not caring about a single thing. The sight infuriated Laura, which was why she lost control.

Reign had to admit, he had almost lost his cool as well.

"Hey, are you two okay?" Reign asked the two girls who were staring blankly at the corpses of the demons, as well as the two demons who Reign had left alive in order to interrogate them.

The two flinched as they heard Reign's voice, and upon looking up, they saw Reign and Laura who were both looking at them with concern in their eyes.

"Here, take these, you shouldn't be walking like this," Laura said as she took out some clothes from her inventory and gave it to the girls Reign looked to the side before grabbing the two demons and going a bit away with them.

"So, I'm going to ask you some questions, and you will answer me, alright?" Reign asked the two demons with a cold smile before taking out his swords.

"Of course, you don't need to answer me, I can get any answer from your soul if I want to." Reign said as he plunged both swords into the legs of the demons, causing them to grunt in pain as they stared at Reign with hatred.

"Ah, the strong and silent type, ay?"
