Is this really a Game?!

Swish

Another soldier hits the ground as an arrow embeds itself deep into his chest. The whole battlefield had completely transformed, the ground could barely be seen from the hundreds of corpses that littered it. Streams of blood flew across the battlefield as the surviving soldiers had to step on the bodies of their fallen comrades in order to move. Soon they would be cut down as well, joining their comrades in the afterlife.

Reign had caused mayhem in the army, his incredible speed made him neigh impossible to hit, his attacks too fast to dodge or block, and his strength too powerful to survive the attack. Each attack of his took a life, any skill he used killed multiple soldiers who were simply too weak to stand against Reign and his overwhelming power.

The battlefield was transformed into something similar to hell itself, the mangled bodies piled atop each other as blood flew from their dead bodies. The visible parts of the ground were red as it had soaked in the blood of the hundreds of dead soldiers. In mere minutes the battle was over, Lieara stood near Reign, her body covered in blood as the body-fitting armor clung tightly to her. Her curves were accentuated as her beautiful face looked coldly at the corpses surrounding her.

"He was my prey." Lieara suddenly commented.

"Huh?" Reign simply acted dumb, his face showing confusion as if he didn't understand what she meant.

"That guy, one of the vice-leaders, he was my prey!" Lieara shouted slightly after staring at Reign, she was still relatively calm and even if she was furious she would never dare to truly shout at Reign, his power was something all of them had witnessed and it was evident that he was deserving of being considered one of the three strongest fighters below the first evolution in the kingdom.

She would have a tough time fighting either Yufan or Sios alone and would perhaps even die when fighting them, but Reign not only fought both at the same time but even managed to kill them. Hundreds of soldiers were slaughtered by Reign after he had destroyed the defensive array, he first focused on killing the vice-leader and the elite troops that were together with him, after that he simply hunted down and killed as many soldiers as he could while arrows and many different attacks from the soldiers came raining down on the battlefield.

He wasn't really bothered by the attacks, his speed made him almost impossible to hit when it came to normal soldiers and even if an attack did land on him, in the state he was it wouldn't do much damage.

"I see, well I have to apologize for taking your prey, I simply wanted to get this battle over as fast as possible." Reign smiled apologetically at Lieara before suddenly appearing in front of her, before she could do anything Reign had taken her hand and placed a sword there. The sword was the one that Yufan had previously used, the rank A scimitar.

"What is this?" Lieara suddenly asked Reign before taking her hand back, contrary to what many would think there was no blushing or any kind of flustered behavior coming from her. She was one of the strongest people in the kingdom and came from a relatively strong noble house, ever since she was little she had many suitors lining up to try and woo her. Instead of doing what most noble ladies do, however, Lieara decided to become a soldier, all of her family members were against it, but thanks to the incredibly high potential that Lieara showed, she was quickly accepted by the army and trained to become a powerful figure.

It didn't take her long, right now she was merely 25 years old and she was already considered to be amongst the strongest in the whole kingdom, many believed that in the future she would also go through the first evolution and become one of the area's powerhouses.

"My apology, even though it isn't the best amongst the same rank, it's still a good weapon, I believe this should be enough for an apology right?" Reign merely smiles in response.

"Hmph, alright." Lieara takes the sword before it disappears. She had a ring on her finger, a spatial ring to be more exact, by using that it was much easier for her to carry stuff around. Of course, the spatial ring she had wasn't anything great, the space inside of it was about 2.4 meters in width and height.

"Let's go, don't bother moving the corpses, Raigon will deal with that now." Lieara turned around and started walking toward the fortification, even though the battle was finished the gates that once blocked the army from retreating were still there and it seemed that there was something that they were going to do.

Reign merely followed after Lieara with a curious look, glancing a couple of times at her behind. Lieara was well aware of it but didn't say anything. After a while, the two had arrived back at the fortification, upon going up the wall Reign could see that everybody was there. Dain had his hand healed previously by one of the healers and it was now back to normal. As Reign and Lieara arrived Raigon smiled brightly before motioning for them to come closer.

"Ah my friend, that was quite a display of power." Raigon smiled brightly at Reign while speaking, it wasn't fake as Raigon truly felt happy because their kingdom had managed to get another powerful figure. Even though Reign wasn't powerful enough to help them win the war right away, he would still be of great help and could shift the tide of battle a bit by killing the top combatants of the coalition.

"Are you going to clean them up, I would prefer if you hurry, the place already stinks." Lieara suddenly says before sitting down on a chair and looking at the battlefield. The battlefield was the same as it was previously, the soldiers didn't even bother taking the armors and weapons from the corpses, only the highest graded ones were looted. Reign felt that it was weird, even though the kingdom was powerful, it still wouldn't hurt to get over 2 000 good quality armors for their troops right?

He had questions, but he decided not to ask any of them, something was going on and he had a suspicion that his questions would get answered soon. And soon they did, after Lieara spoke up Raigon simply asked Reign to sit down and watch. Raigon got on top of the wall and took out a small device, with each flick of his finger the device lit up while the surrounding area vibrated slightly.

Even though Reign had no idea what the device was he knew that it had to be something powerful as he could feel powerful mana being released from the surroundings with each flick of Raigon's fingers. After about 5 seconds Raigon stopped moving, the circular device in his hand started floating in the air as it shone brightly, soon the same started happening on the battlefield.

The ground started shining an ominous purple light, even the mountains of corpses weren't enough to fully cover the light as it intensified in brightness. After a couple of seconds something happened, the ground suddenly became mushy and the corpses slowly started sinking into it, with each passing second more and more corpses were gone from the battlefield as the ground seemingly swallowed them all up.

In a matter of 2 minutes, the battlefield was once again empty, with no corpses, no holes, and deep cuts from the previous battle, nothing was left. Just as Reign thought he had seen everything the ground started shining once again. The center suddenly turned mushy as the ground expelled all the armors and weapons that were once used by the enemy soldiers, there was no blood on them as they looked sparkly clean.

Reign was amazed, to have something like this was life-saving, not only could the army immediately rest after a battle but it was a lot easier to get all the loot after it has been magically stripped from the enemies. That however was not the only thing that this device and power were able to do.

Reign wasn't completely certain of it, but he believed that there was a massive array across not only the battlefield but under the fortification as well. The array was what Raigon had used in order to do what he had just done and it could definitely do more than simply clean the battlefield.

The powerful mana that Reign could feel was definitely able to do a lot more than simply clean, not to mention that he could feel something else, it felt like the array didn't only take the bodies of the fallen, it felt like it took their very soul as well.

As previously stated Reign was for some reason very sensitive to demons and souls, even though even a first evolution combatant wouldn't be able to feel a thing, perhaps even stronger people wouldn't be, Reign felt it immediately and with relative ease. The power he felt from deep underground made him realize that even he wouldn't be able to survive an attack formed by something like that. It was probably a countermeasure that Raigon had prepared in case a first evolution combatant attacked them.
