Is this really a Game?!

"Well, that about does it." Reign said as he made his way toward the giant tree, his footsteps however stopped as he turned around and stared at the knight who was still standing, the large hole he had received after Reign's attack was starting to heal with slow speed, but it was healing.

"Ohhh come on man, you can't defeat me, just stop." Reign said as he jumped high in the air before pointing both of his swords down at the knight. The figure of the Kirin appeared around him as it roared before swooping down on the knight. The Kirin's powerful horns pierced through the knight with ease and completely ripped both of its arms off.

The knight however simply shook violently from the blow before getting back up. A vine stretched out from where its right arm was and grabbed the spear it used.

"Bruh." Reign watched the knight without blinking before going on a rampage. Most of the skills he had were used and soon the knight was left in pieces. The various body parts however still tried to repair themselves and reattach but Reign didn't care at this point.

"Greenie, watch over him, if the body gets repaired more just smash it apart ok?" Reign turned around as Greenie gave him a thumbs up. Slowly he made his way toward the tree that started shaking violently, the branches that were left on the tree suddenly twisted before piercing toward Reign.

Reign quickly used his lightning and dodged the attack while still moving forward and getting closer to the tree. His two swords slashed the branches apart as he did so while the lightning would shock the branches a bit and stop them from attacking him immediately after that.

Reign had no idea what he was supposed to do, even if the tree wasn't trying to kill him, it would still have been impossible to transport something like that back into the territory as it was simply too big for him and Greenie to carry. Perhaps he would need to get the other groups over here to help out with that, but even then, there was no way to go through the portal with the tree which meant they would need to pass through many areas before coming to Doncaster.

'There has to be something, Eldar said that I can use the tree to improve the strength of my own, which means that there is definitely something I can do, perhaps there's something like a power source there, maybe a mana core or something inside the tree?' Reign thought to himself as he continued dodging the attacks from the tree, tens of branches from the tree were speeding toward him with murderous intent.

Even though Reign's own speed was much higher compared to theirs, the sheer number of branches was enough to block off any path and escape routes, with each step that Reign took he would need to fiercely evade and attack the branches that were seemingly never-ending. The branches blocked off the sky above Reign as they came crashing down on him, each of them was pointed and incredibly sharp and each time Reign dodged an attack, the branches would pierce deeply inside the ground.

"Let's try this." Reign said as he smirked at the branches that were coming at him. He stopped for a moment as lightning suddenly exploded around him, the branches were all hit and suddenly stopped, the larger ones didn't stop, but their movement was no longer the same as before as the lightning was still effective on them.

The [ Discharge ] skill was one that Reign didn't use that often because it wouldn't deal large damage to powerful enemies, it was still quite effective on stunning them or making them draw some distance, however. Seeing as how the lightning from his swords was able to shock the branches and make them stop made Reign try this skill out, the end result was quite satisfactory.

Reign immediately zoomed past the encirclement that the branches had formed, more of them came after him but it was already too late. The only problem Reign had was the fact that he was previously surrounded by the branches, after managing to get past that it wouldn't be that easy to make him slow down again.

[Severing Light and Darkness ]

An X-shaped sword light was sent from Reign, all the branches in its path were mercilessly cut down and destroyed before the attack managed to land on the giant tree. The tree shook violently as an x-shaped mark was left on its trunk. The cut was deep but the tree was still standing as it would take much more to take down its huge frame.

The branches started attacking Reign even more erratically after the blow and soon he had a nasty expression on his face.

"Alright, if that's how you want to play it, then I'll make sure to cut every single branch you have and leave you naked before figuring out how to do this, I'm pretty sure I don't need all of you after all." Lightning exploded from Reign as his new sword started shining brightly as the lightning around Reign intensified. An incredible amount of mana was being released by Reign who suddenly turned into a blur as he held nothing back at this point.

Branch after branch were cut as none could even come close to catching Reign. Lightning exploded at places from time to time as Reign made sure to hurl his lightning spears and send lightning arcs at the branches in order to stun them before cutting them apart.

Even though the tree had an incredible regeneration, it was still slower compared to Reign's incredible attacks. He soon arrived at the tree and started cutting off the branches from the base, both of his swords were coated by intense mana before lightning was applied to them. The mana coating, coupled with the lightning suddenly formed a kind of bond, and soon the mana that coated the sword no longer looked like a sword, in fact, it resembled a saw.

"Nothing better than a saw to cut off branches after all." Reign smiled viciously as he started cutting the tree apart. Each of his attacks made the tree shake and even the whole forest could feel that something was going on. Of course, nobody dared come close as the explosions and intense mana coming from the place were enough to scare anyone off.

Reign started laughing intensely as he slashed apart the branches of the tree. Each swing was able to either cut off a thinner branch or go deep inside a thicker one. The saw-like mana that coated his swords worked perfectly against the branches, even when Reign's sword would get stuck deep inside a thick branch, he would be able to quickly get the swords out or continue cutting it further thanks to that.

Greenie on the other hand was doing what Reign tasked him with, each time the knight managed to regenerate a part of his body, Greenie would quickly destroy it with his bare hands, or by stomping it.

"This tree is definitely tricky, maybe even a normal Tier I fighter would have to flee in the end after the knight and branches attacked together." Said Greenie as he stomped another body part of the knight. The power behind the branches and knight wasn't that large and any Tier I combatant could deal with it, it was the constant regeneration and the sheer quantity of the branches that was hard to overcome. Even with Reign's lightning-fast speed he still needed a lot of time in order to take it down.

Slowly but surely, however, the branches were getting cut off and there were fewer of them. The tree could regenerate some, but they were always thinner compared to before and would easily get cut off by Reign who was on a rampage right now. The knight as well was slowly dying, his regeneration speed was becoming slower and slower and soon he was no more.

Greenie didn't know if the knight simply died from regenerating too much or if the tree had decided to abandon him and focus more on Reign and trying to capture him, but no matter the reason, the battle was slowly coming to an end.

There were only about 1/5 of the branches left and they no longer posed a real threat to Reign. He was still however set on cutting them all off before trying to figure out how to take the tree and fuse it with his own.

The tree was no longer shaking, perhaps because it no longer had any power to do so, or maybe because it was exhausted and knew that there was no longer anything it could do to stop Reign. The tree itself was an anomaly in the area, the powers it could exhibit were way above anything in the forest, but now it had met someone that was even more powerful than it was.

As the swords were swung down, the final branch of the tree was cut off, Reign was breathing heavily, but his mouth was curled up in a smile.

"Time to finish this up huh?"
