Is this really a Game?!

"You\'re telling me that not only did these bastards get more points than us, but even these weirdos too, no, there\'s no freaking way!" His angry voice could be heard again as he stared at the blonde-haired man.

"Oh, so you\'re not satisfied with the result?" The blonde-haired man smiles warmly as he slowly approaches the man and his team.

"Fuck no I\'m not, you better re-do this shit or something, there\'s no way I and my men lost to them!"

"I see, so you want everyone to go through the challenge again because you think you were somehow wronged?"

"Of course, I do, and don\'t you try to scare us, I know that you people that were summoned here can\'t attack or kill us!" The leader of the Berserkers shouts as he walks closer to the blonde-haired man, his face was flushed with anger as it shone with a red color.

"That\'s right, there had to be some sort of trick those guys played!" One of the Berserkers says as they all get riled up.

"Yeah, that\'s right!"

"Boss is right, there\'s no way we lost to those guys!"

"Hmm, so because you and those idiots behind you were weak you would not only inconvenience me but also everyone here." The blonde-haired man stops for a moment as he seizes up the leader with a bored gaze, "How idiotic."

"What?!" The leader widens his eyes as he looks at the man, he suddenly points at him before continuing, "Listen to me you fu-"

Swish

"Aarrghh!" The leader suddenly screams out in pain as his arm was cut off, nobody was able to see what had happened, not even Reign was able to follow the movement of the blonde-haired man.

"Be silent you ant." The man suddenly says with an angry look on his face as he looks at the leader of the Berserkers and his men who now had a frightened look on their faces.

"My arm, you bastard!" The leader of the Berserkers shouts in pain as he holds what remained of his arm, it was a clean-cut, right at the elbow. A huge amount of blood was gushing out while the leader was looking at it with a shocked face.

"We can\'t attack or kill you?" The blonde-haired man suddenly asks as he looks at the leader with a bored look, "You misunderstand, most will not do anything simply because they don\'t want to get penalized by the system, I, on the other hand, don\'t care about it, especially when it comes to trash such as you guys, you bore me, disappear."

With a wave of his hand all of the Berserkers, except for the leader suddenly stopped moving completely, a couple of seconds later they all exploded. A rain of blood showered the players that were close to them while bits of flesh and organs were scattered around the mountaintop, the leader felt cold sweat drench his back as he looked behind him. None of his men survived.

"N-no, impossible, y-you weren\'t supposed to be able to do that, n-no, p-please." The leader stutters as he looks at the blonde-haired man, he was the leader of territory and nobody dared to talk back to him there, even some of the people that were summoned to help them out would never even touch him, no matter what he did.

To suddenly see all of his men die with a simple swipe of the blonde-haired man\'s arm was terrifying. Before the blonde-haired man could do anything however a portal was made behind the leader as a 2m tall man stepped out of it. The man wore rough leather armor that barely covered his upper body, his bulging muscles were on full display as he looked at the blonde-haired man.

"Drayce." The tall man says as he nods to the blonde-haired man who smiles in response.

"So you were the one responsible for these guys, no wonder they were this cocky."

"I merely followed the rules, unlike you."

"Well, your \'rules\' made them an eyesore, so I decided to clean them up a bit." Drayce says as he smiles brightly at the tall man, "Since you\'re here, it means you have a complaint?"

"Aganor, you\'re here, this, this piece of-"

"Silence." The tall man looks murderously at the leader as the latter suddenly stops as fear overtakes his body.

"I have no complaints, I was thinking of doing the same, to be honest, I just came to get this one, I\'ll deal with him."

"Oh, well color me surprised, by deal with him do you mean?"

"Yes."

"Ohh, let me watch, I haven\'t seen that be done for so long."

"Suit yourself."

"Alright, I just need to finish up here, don\'t start without me," Drayce says as he twirls around like a schoolgirl that got a new phone. His bright smile and innocent look were a stark contrast to all the blood and flesh around him, looking at him now, everyone was frightened as they remembered that this person was not human at all.

The tall man, Aganor picked up the leader of the Berserkers before stepping through the portal and disappearing.

"Anyway guys, since the Berserkers are out I have to congratulate this team, you\'re in the top 5." Drayce suddenly looks at the Blood Angels as they smile at him sheepishly.

"Anyway, I guess it\'s time for some rewards huh, well, since this is the first and the easiest challenge the rewards are honestly nothing special, of course in the future it won\'t be so."

Drayce smiles as he looks at everyone.

"The next challenge and each that follows it will no longer save you from death, so looking at what happened here, I expect quite a good number of you to die if you enter the next challenge with the same mindset."

A couple of players gulped in fear, those were the ones that got killed even while being alert of their surroundings, some of them never even knew what happened or what killed them as their eyes suddenly closed before being opened here at the mountain top. Hearing that they will really die in the following challenges was a frightful thing, nobody wanted to die after all.

"As for our 1st ranked team, since you guys managed to climb up the mountain before the end of the challenge, you got a special opportunity." Hearing Drayce\'s words, everyone glanced at Reign and the others, the teams that barely survived in the forest smiled embarrassingly, they thought they were pretty strong before, but compared to Reign and the others they were nothing more than cannon fodder.

The leader of the Ice Angels stared at Reign after hearing Drayce, as she and her team also had the same idea as them and tried to climb the mountain, she knew exactly how difficult it was and how powerful the enemies were on it were. Learning that another group had done something that even she deemed too dangerous was a slight blow to her pride.

Reign suddenly turned his head around and their eyes met, with a slight smile Reign waved at her before turning his head back and looking at Drayce. The girl simply continued looking at him for a couple of seconds longer before sitting down on a rock and switching her sight to Drayce.

"The opportunity is simple, you get to fight me." Drayce suddenly says as he theatrically twirls around.

"Huh?" All seven of them simultaneously ask as they look at the man in front of them.

"What?" Drayce asks with a confused face.

"We were thinking more of a bonus reward you see, not a suicide quest," Shadow tells him with a calm face as the latter scratches the back of his head.

"I\'m afraid I really can\'t give any bonus reward, but come on, it\'s just a little fight, it\'ll be fun, I promise I won\'t kill anyone, I like you guys."

"I would rather not use the opportunity." Shadow answers with a straight face.

"Yeah me neither." Laura backs him up as she looks at Drayce with apprehension.

"Alright, alright, it\'s not a fight per se, it\'s more than a spar, since I can\'t give you rewards, I can give you pointers as I said before, it\'s not like I\'m gonna try to kill any of you or anything, oh and also, you can\'t say no."

"Yes, we can!" Shadow shouts at Drayce as the latter smiles at him before shaking his head a bit, "Nope."

"You f-sabadgnlas."

"I have no idea what you said."

"It\'s alright, he does this sometimes." Reign suddenly says before getting up, "Are there any rules for the spar?"

Drayce suddenly looks at him before a wide smile appears on his face.
