A couple of minutes before the gate started moving.
"Hey, so are you going to open this thing or not?" Wolf asked the soul who waved him off.
"Don't disturb me, I'm thinking."
"This little bastard," Wolf said as he stared at the soul with an annoyed expression. The soul had not done a single thing ever since he put it close to the gate, and it was still simply staring at the gate without doing a thing.
"Let it be, he is probably trying to open it, just can't figure out how." Reign said out loud, making sure that the soul would be able to hear him.
"What, what did you just say, you brown-haired bastard?!" The soul shouted out as it stared at Reign who was smiling at it.
'Wolf was right, you just gotta aim at its pride, with that, it will try to do whatever you want.' Reign said to himself before chuckling.
"What, I merely told Wolf to give you a break, you've been trying hard, and I can see that you're struggling, maybe a small break would do you good."
"I mean, this gate is probably above your abilities, but don't worry, we never expected you to be able to open it anyway." Reign said as he shrugged his shoulders while staring at the soul who was staring back in anger.
"You bastard, who told you I can't open this thing, I can open it in a moment, I was just thinking something, I'm not useless like the two of you!" The soul said before turning around and moving its arms in a weird manner.
"You were right, with its soul so heavily damaged, it became similar to a kid, you just need to tease it a bit, and it will do its best to prove you wrong," Reign told Wolf in a low voice, making sure that the soul would not hear him this time.
"Even before being defeated by us, the leader was a proud person, that pride is still there, only that it is even stronger, which makes it easy to be manipulated in such a way," Wolf said with a smile on his face, happy that he was right about the leader.
He and Reign had discussed it before, and after talking a bit with the soul the past couple of days, Wolf was able to figure out how the soul behaved and why it did some things. He and Reign had already suspected that its behavior had changed thanks to all the damage it sustained against Reign, and it had started acting like a kid, not like an adult.
With all of that in mind, the two decided to try something out. Wolf would act as an annoyed guy that would urge the soul to open the gate, while Reign would be the sarcastic one, completely underestimating the power the soul had over the base.
With the soul's great hatred for Reign, it would definitely do whatever it could to prove him wrong, and in a manner of seconds, it did prove him wrong.
A click was heard before the gate suddenly started opening. It was slow, incredibly slow, and the creaking sound it produced was enough to make the elder and the other members inside scared senseless.
"Go back, we need to get further inside before it opens!" The elder said as he turned around, only for him and all the others to suddenly stop as two incredibly powerful auras exploded out from the inside, forcing them all to be covered in a cold sweat and their bodies to shake in fear.
"Sorry, but we won't allow you to do something like that." Reign said as a small portion of his face was visible through the opening.
The elder slowly turned around before suddenly being sent flying back as Reign's sword penetrated through his stomach. The sword continued forward, carrying the body of the elder with it.
It stabbed two more people and flew for about 10 meters before falling down on the ground with all three of them.
As everybody stared at the elder who was heavily injured so easily in horror, the gate opened up further, allowing Reign to enter before Wolf followed after him.
"Not bad, you're still alive." Reign said before extending his hand and aiming at his sword, causing it to shake before it flew back to him.
'Neat little trick, Eisenhorn is truly a genius to actually be able to not only learn but teach others something like this so easily.' Reign thought to himself as he held his sword. Summoning a sword, or any weapon, back was something that Eisenhorn had taught him after they had managed to take Riplas back.
Even though they had only a small period of time left before Reign would go back, Eisenhorn was still able to teach him the basics of controlling a weapon after it left your hands, and with Reign's talent, he was able to quickly pick it up and learn the trick.
With the elder down on the ground, the other members were all scared senseless, including the direct disciple of their leader. They all started shaking while the elder made his way up from the ground with difficulty.
Reign's power was overwhelming, and none of them had any hopes of being able to go against him.
"Well, should we do the same as before?" Reign asked himself out loud before taking out his second sword.
"One attack, you need to survive one attack of mine and you will be free to go." Reign said with a smile before walking toward them.
"Come on, you can even attack me." Reign said as the members gulped while a couple of them took deep breaths, steeling themselves and getting ready to do just what Reign had said.
If all of them were to attack him at once, then there might be some chance of survival after all.
What they didn't know was that there was no chance for any of them to survive. Reign would honor his word and let them go, but he never said anything about Wolf, who was right behind him.
Him letting them go didn't mean that Wolf would do the same, and even though Reign heavily doubted that anyone would be able to survive an attack from him, they would still be killed by Wolf who was behind him.
Reign was not going to allow any of the people present in the base to live, they were enemies, and he was certain that if the opponent had managed to take over Doncaster, they would also do a similar thing.
With two swords in his hands, Reign walked forward before stopping and smirking as a young man jumped above everyone else and attacked him.
A Peak Tier III monster was right next to him, and together, the two attacked Reign with their full strength.
The young man held a spear that he trusted down at Reign with full force, forcing a spiral of dark energy to go around the spear. The monster was simply plummeting down at Reign, intending to smash him into the ground.
"Hmmm, well that's new, I haven't seen this kind of energy before." Reign commented before suddenly disappearing.
He appeared next to the young man who was in the air, with incredible speed, Reign cut the monster in half before attacking the young man. He knocked away his spear with his sword before hitting him in the forehead with the pommel of his sword, causing his head to be knocked back and his consciousness to fade.
Reign then grabbed the young man by his arm before throwing him at Wolf.
ραпdα Йᴏνêl(сòm) "Yo, put some chains over him, I'm interested in that weird energy that he had used." Reign said as Wolf nodded before grabbing the barely conscious young man by the head and slamming him down to the ground.
The young man was knocked unconscious immediately, and Wolf then proceeded to put mana-restraining chains over him before putting a pair of mana-draining cuffs on him.
As for Reign, he was surrounded by multiple enemies as soon as he threw the young man down to the ground. They had all decided to attack him at that moment as it would be much harder for him to defend against their attacks if he was in the air.
Reign applauded them, congratulating them on being brave enough to attack him and using the perfect opportunity to do so.
Many skills were used and launched toward Reign, only to be destroyed by his swords. To be more specific, no attack managed to even touch his swords as Reign had sent a sword light at each one, the sword light was powerful enough to not only destroy the attack but to continue forward and kill the one that had launched it as well.
In mere seconds, all of those that had attacked Reign were killed while the ones below stared in fear as Reign fell down and landed on the ground before charging at them as well. None would be allowed to leave the building alive.
