Is this really a Game?!



Basred stared at the kobold who got up from the ground. Some of his scales had fallen down as blood started flowing out of his body, drenching his black scales in them and making him look extremely menacing.

"A Tier V." The kobold said in a calm voice as he took a deep breath.

He stared at Basred before his wings unfurled, but instead of taking off and flying, something else happened.

His wings suddenly started shaking, they started warping before suddenly, they burst.

The wings fell down on the ground as they were replaced by new wings.

"Dammit, there was no split personality, he just managed to awaken his powers completely!" Basred said as he suddenly used his sonic waves and attacked the kobold who disappeared from the spot as he took flight.

His new wings were larger than his old ones, they were sharper as well as they looked like they were made out of metal.

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm He zoomed through the air and made his way to Reign who narrowed his eyes and clenched both of his swords as lightning enveloped him.

'His speed is incredible, I might be able to reach it if I transform, but for now, I can only hope to increase it to the point of being able to keep up with the bastard in my normal state.' Reign thought as both light and darkness appeared around him as well.

The light and darkness converged at Reign as his lightning formed an armor while they formed two ethereal wings, one made out of pure darkness, the other out of pure light.

He moved forward and took flight as well, shocking both Basred and the kobold.

'As I thought, using the two abilities to form wings uses way too much mana!' Reign complained in his head as he charged at the kobold.

He had thought about using his abilities in such a way for a while, with him being able to form an armor out of lightning, he realized that he could create almost anything with his abilities. He could create swords made out of light, darkness, or lightning, he could make other forms of armor pieces and weapons as well, but they weren't as powerful as real items, so the best way to use his abilities was still the same as before.

Instead of making a sword, coating his sword in a layer of lightning, light, or darkness worked better and made it more powerful, the same went for the armor and so on.

Wings, however, were different.

They were entirely made out of mana and cost a lot of mana each second to be sustained, but they allowed him to fly and boosted his speed. Compared to his wings that would appear when he transformed, they didn't give him as much speed, and they were quite fragile as one could destroy them with one strong attack.

Still, for a situation like this one, when he and Basred were dealing with a monster that was very fast and could fly, this was the best solution.

He flew forward, and the kobold did the same as both of them gained even more speed before clashing.

Reign had used his [ Lightning Lance ] ability again, but he had used it twice, creating two lances made out of lightning before boosting them with a little bit of his light and darkness, turning one into a lance of white lightning, while the other one was made out of black lightning.

The two lances clashed against the kobold's powerful claws, and they broke as Reign was sent flying back.

He, however, never expected to win in a clash against a Tier V being, his only goal was to make the kobold stop for an instant, which he had managed to do. 

Suddenly, a barrier made out of sonic waves appeared around the kobold as more and more sonic waves appeared around him as Basred had extended his arm, placing his palm over the kobold before closing it, which signaled the start of the attack.

Sonic waves suddenly started bombarding the kobold from all sides as he quickly placed his arms close to his body and brought his knees up before covering his front with his wings, turning into a ball that floated in the air.

The sonic waves stopped him from falling as they came from every single direction, and each time they struck the kobold, his body would heavily shake as some blood would start coming out of it.

Thanks to the waves, even the blood was unable to fall down to the ground as it was blasted from all sides, splashing on the kobold each time as soon enough, the black ball in the air turned into a red one from all the blood that had been spilled before being launched at the kobold.

The skill only stopped after some 30 seconds, during which Reign stared at the sonic barrier with fear. This was the first time he had seen such a skill, one that made it impossible for an enemy to defend against or break.

He imagined himself instead of the kobold in the barrier and realized that he would fare the same as the kobold did. The attacks were relentless, the sonic waves were incredibly fast and dealt a lot of damage.

No, he wouldn't fare the same, he would probably die before even 20 seconds passed.

The power that Basred displayed made Reign realize just how powerful a true Tier V was, not a battle suit that was made by a civilization that was unable to become powerful as quickly as others, or a kobold that possessed enough strength to be barely called a Tier V.

Basred had been a Tier V combatant for a long time, and not only did he have a lot of fighting experience, but he was much more proficient at controlling mana than most. 

His control over mana was higher than some Tier VI combatants, and that was something that was true for most of the Tier Vs that led the human regions on the planet.

They had all been stuck at Tier V for a long time, so the only thing they were able to do was hone their skills and improve themselves in other ways instead of leveling up and getting more stats.

Every single one of them was a mid-grade Tier V, and unfortunately, none had managed to reach the high grade. Nobody knew why, it was as if something was blocking them from doing so, and that had been the case for a long time now.

Still, that allowed Basred to completely overpower the low-grade Tier V kobold after thirty seconds were up and he lifted the sonic barriers, the red ball fell down to the ground, as did all the blood.

The kobold crashed to the ground and lay down on his back as a puddle of blood appeared around him. He groaned before getting up from the ground and staring at Basred with a fearful face. He wanted to move, but his legs were shaking from the damage he took.

His entire body had been damaged quite a lot by Basred's skill, and he was unable to even move properly.

"It seems like they're almost finished on their end as well." Basred suddenly said as he glanced to the side, to which Reign nodded as he saw how there were only about 60 kobolds left, and they were all trying to run away while the members of the group were chasing after them.

They were monsters after all, so there was nothing bad about killing every single one of them.

"Just who are you?" The dragonized kobold asked with a tired voice as he stared at Basred who chuckled.

"Just people who are very interested in something below, but you don't need to know more, after all, this is it for you," Basred said as he snapped his fingers, creating another sonic wave that hit the kobold from above, forcing him to fall face-first on the ground.

The kobold placed his hands on the ground and started getting up, only to be hit with another wave, and then another, and another.

"I guess I shouldn't do this, you deserve a faster death," Basred said before taking a deep breath and then exhaling slowly.

He took another deep breath as the kobold tried getting up, but was forced to be on his knees and stare at Basred weakly.

Basred opened his eyes and looked at the kobold before opening his mouth and forming a circle with it. Suddenly, he exhaled sharply.

Reign only saw a blur.

The kobold was hit instantly, his body being launched back and embedded in the wall that was made out of the hard rock that had cracked from the blow.

[ Sonic wave, speed 10x ]

Basred launched a wave so fast, that only a good second after the attack ended, did Reign hear a loud explosion from the front, which was the sonic barrier being broken.

The kobold's body was broken in pieces, his face was no longer the same as even the skull was broken. It only took an instant for the kobold to die without even knowing what had hit him.
