Is this really a Game?!

Chapter 96 Demon Ogre

The ogre smiled as horns could be seen on the top of his head, the transformation was complete and now it was time to fight.

Ranzur breaks out at a speed much faster than before. In mere seconds he gets to Greenie who was clutching his hammer tightly. Swinging his sword he collides with Greenie's hammer, his strength was slightly weaker compared to before, but that was nothing compared to the speed Ranzur had gained, with a swift movement he follows up his attack with his other sword, constantly pressuring Greenie with his rapid attacks.

Swish

Tank had thrown his shield towards the ogre again, with a snort Ranzur simply swings back to deflect it, the impact creates an explosion but it does nothing except force Ranzur's arm to swing backward. Using the momentum of the explosion Ranzur spins in place and launches an incredibly fast and deadly attack at Greenie's unprotected side.

Bam

Greenie used his Shattering fist again in an effort to defend against the attack, the tactic miraculously works as the mana sword breaks, but he doesn't get let off easily as there was a gash on his hand now. With a smile, Ranzur simply creates another sword before continuing to attack Greenie.

"To think that there would be a day when I struggle to fight against some fledging in a newly awakened planet, know this little one, had I been at my full strength you would already be dead." Ranzur swings his swords left and right as he fights against Greenie and Tank who was behind him.

Showing great fighting instinct and reflexes he manages to block every single attack thrown at him while at the same time counter-attacking them both. Both sides were giving it their all with their attacks while not using skills before a good chance showed itself.

Tank suddenly rushes at Ranzur as a red bull materializes around him, with great speed and power he gets to the purple-skinned ogre.

Ranzur constricts his eyes and clutches both of his swords before launching a skill of his own. Even though Tank's charge wasn't that dangerous to him it was disruptive, a moment of hesitation would leave him open for Greenie's attack.

"Demon Wave!"

Ranzur swings both of his swords simultaneously as two wave-like blade lights get launched at Tank. The two attacks collide and the ground around them immediately gets blown away from the impact.

Tank was stopped by the attack and was still struggling to get through, the blade lights were different from Greenie's crescent kick or Wolf's flame slash, instead of dissipating after the collision they instead were still in place, the waveform was the main reason why.

The two waves were going in opposite directions, being connected with mana they were taking turns in attacking and defending. As one moves forward the other one backs away in a synchronized fashion.

While Tank was struggling with the waves Ranzur had already turned around to face the attacking Greenie. Crescent kick, shattering punch, dominating slash, all of these skills were used in an orderly fashion, the timing on the attacks was near perfect and Ranzur had no time to rest as he needed to defend attack after attack, skill after skill.

"Good job young one, but still not enough." With a praising voice Ranzur says and suddenly crushes one of his swords with a clench of his hand.

"Demonic Bullet."

Forming a fist with his now free hand Ranzur gets low into a horse stance, his hand was down at his hip and with a swift motion, he launches it forward. The punch rotates midway and a sonic boom could be heard as it ruptures the sound barrier.

The Demonic Bullet was one skill that a low amount of people could master, simply because of its high requirement but little advantages. The skill focuses on the user channeling all of his mana at his fist before manipulating it into a spiral that went around the fist. By launching the fist and rotating it in an opposite direction the mana will explode suddenly and the worst scenario would be for your hand to explode into pieces.

Done correctly however the explosion will act as a sort of thruster that will propel the fist forward with great power and speed. Ranzur is one of the few that managed to fully master the skill in his prime and even gained some reputation in the universe from it. However that was many centuries ago and the now old ogre was not even a tenth of what he used to be, the somewhat famous Demon Fist Ranzur was simply an old man waiting for his death after being defeated and captured.

Greenie crossed his hands immediately after seeing the old ogre start the attack, the punch connected with his hammer and the enormous power it carried launched Greenie tens of meters backward. Falling to the ground he slides before rolling around until the force was gone and he came to a stop.

Blood could be seen on his arms while he was vomiting blood, even though the hammer took a good portion of the attack and absorbed some of it the rest had nearly broken both of his arms while some of his ribs were cracked. The internal damage was not light either as his organs were shaken and he had light internal bleeding.

Climbing back on his feet while leaning on the hammer Greenie looks at Ranzur with bloodshot eyes. Nobody had managed to injure him like this, he felt fury rising up from deep inside of him while the red lines on his body glowed slightly, he was about to pull all the stops and go all out.

Tap

"Good job holding until now Greenie." Greenie turns around and gets surprised as he sees Wolf standing behind him, there was blood on his armor as he had finished his battle recently.

"He is strong." Greenie simply nods in acknowledgment before looking at Ranzur who was staring at Wolf. It would be a lie to say he wasn't surprised to see another human come here, it seemed that one of his team members had fallen.

"Could you defeat him if you went all out?" Another voice could be heard from the left side of Greenie. His eyes light up in joy as he recognizes the voice.

"Master!" Looking at his master who was smiling at him he nods before looking at the bleeding wound on his shoulder. "Master you."

Greenies eyes widen in shock as he feels boundless rage overcome him, somebody had injured his master while he was fighting another enemy, he felt anger at the enemy who he quickly realized was dead, his master had already taken care of it.

"It's alright, it's just a minor wound." Reign lifts his arm up and down to show Greenie that he was alright before walking forward.

"Shadow and Beast should be here quickly, let's take care of the big guy first." With lightning dancing on his sword he runs towards Ranzur who was simply standing there waiting for them.

Tank was also doing nothing, he was no fool, he knew it would be dangerous to fight the ogre by himself, the skill he used previously was already strong enough to completely overpower his charge at the end, forcing him to block the remainder with his shield.

Wolf and Greenie nod and follow Reign. A couple of meters from the ogre Greenie suddenly shouts and starts getting bigger, now that there were more of them he was able to use his Vajra Might to fight against the ogre.

Reign stops in front of the ogre and looks him straight in the eyes before attacking. With lighting covering his body he disappears before colliding with one of Ranzur's swords. The old ogre was shocked by the speed Reign exhibited, he could feel this was not the full extent of the human's power.

"Impossible, a human, even if a seed shouldn't be so strong!" Speed, reflexes, strength, and the manipulation of his ability were top-notch already, something that Ranzur had never seen before. Planets of similar size to Earth were usually just average, even having one or two seeds of hope was above average and their strength definitely didn't grow as fast as this boy's had.

"What are you?!" Ranzur shouts while defending against Reign's lightning-fast attacks, quickly Wolf, Greenie and Tank appear to help him, the combination of so many of them was too much for the ogre who was slowly receiving injuries on his body.

"Honestly, I have no idea myself." Reign calmly replies without stopping his attacks, a glint in his eyes could be seen as he was letting himself go fully at this fight. His swordsmanship had stagnated before coming here, but after fighting against Imris he finally felt it improve again, it was a magical feeling that he could not explain.

Swish

An arrow parts the air as it arrives at the ogre with a green blinding light. Beast had poured an enormous amount of mana into this attack.

"Break!" The ogre suddenly opens his mouth and spits out a ball of mana that collides with the arrow, the collision creates a huge shockwave that makes the battle pause for a moment. Using the situation for his advantage Ranzur quickly attacks Reign who had his eyes closed by the fierce wind blowing in their direction.

Thud

A black shadow suddenly appears in front of his arm and stabs down at it, the stab was harmless but black mana had found its way inside his body and exploded, doing great damage to the ogre's arm.

"Ccc, can't let you do that big guy." Shadow shakes his finger at the hurt ogre while smiling. With a quick movement, he attacks again before everyone else joins in.

Ranzur still had tricks in his sleeve, a couple of skills that managed to damage some of them or break their momentum for a short period of time, but unfortunately, the number of enemies was simply too high in the end and the old ogre chief was down on his knees while Greenie who was back at his normal size was standing above him.
