Is this really a Game?!

Chapter 313 Yufan And The Phantom



As the battle continued Reign could feel as if something was wrong, his opponent was definitely not slacking off and that was obvious to Reign, but something still bothered him, he just couldn't figure out what exactly it was.

The leader suddenly stopped, his sword still pointing at Reign while a smile bloomed on his face.

"You're strong." He told Reign as he looked at him with a passionate gaze, one could easily mistake the man's gaze for a perverted one, but Reign knew that he was only excited because of their battle, nothing else.

"You're not half-bad yourself."

"My name is Yufan human, how about you?"

"Reign."

"Nice to meet you Reign, I hope you can entertain me more!" Yufan shouted as he charged at Reign once again, the dark-red mana around him danced wildly as its shape suddenly changed. No longer was it simply covering Yufan's body as the mana actually formed a shape of a person above him, compared to Yufan however the person-shaped mana above him was a bit larger and wielded a hammer in his hands.

With the inclusion of the phantom figure above Yufan, the fight became a lot more dangerous. Not only was Yufan himself a powerful fighter, but the phantom figure was able to perfectly synchronize and help him, each of their attacks was different and Reign could barely hang on when faced with the onslaught of attacks.

The phantom was slow but each of the attacks was immensely powerful, to top it off each time the hammer hit something the mana would explode in a violent fashion and even Reign had to be wary of it. His speed advantage was almost non-existent thanks to the phantom and Yufan working together.

Matters became even worse when the phantom suddenly detached itself from Yufan and attacked Reign by itself. When the two were connected it was still hard to fight against them, but with the two of them fighting individually the pressure on Reign had increased.

The phantom had slow but incredibly powerful attacks, by itself it wouldn't be a big threat to Reign who could dismantle it thanks to his superiority in speed, but with Yufan attacking him constantly he simply didn't have a chance to do so. As Yufan and Reign clashed the phantom attacked Reign from behind, just when Reign was about to dodge the attack his eyes widened in shock as he felt that his leg was grabbed by something.

Looking down he was able to see the dark red mana from Yufan enveloping his left leg, he quickly channeled his mana in order to break free but it was too late as the hammer came from the left. Reign positioned his two swords in an attempt to block it but the attack proved too much for Reign who was sent flying back, even the dark-red mana that enveloped Reign's leg was destroyed thanks to the powerful attack.

Of course, Yufan didn't sit idle during the time as he made sure to attack Reign as well, right after the hammer had connected with his two swords, Yufan had slashed down in an attempt to cut off Reign's head. Thankfully the powerful skill from Reign's armor was able to block the attack but even with that he still suffered some injuries.

His left shoulder was bleeding and he could feel that his internal organs were a bit damaged thanks to the power of the phantom figure. The two enemies of course didn't wait and immediately charged at him, only to be forced to dodge as two powerful black and white lighting spears were suddenly launched their way.

Yufan was able to dodge the attack completely but the same couldn't be said for the phantom whose shoulder was pierced by the spear, the lightning that lingered on its body made moving even harder. Thanks to the power of the spear its left arm had lost most of its power and the phantom could barely use it now.

Of course, that wasn't even the worst thing for Yufan as he could feel the intense pressure coming from Reign, it wasn't only him as the whole battlefield felt as if breathing had become harder because of the intense pressure that Reign had released.

Black and white lightning enveloped Reign's body as he stared at Yufan with anger, he truly didn't expect his opponent to suddenly change the whole battle with one skill, it was Reign's own fault however as he wanted to fight against the man without truly using everything he had.

He didn't think that Yufan could use his dark-red mana after summoning the phantom and he paid dearly for it, not only did Yufan come close to killing him, but the blow from the phantom was enough to hurt him badly, if not for Reign using his [ Mana Coating ] in order to fully envelop his swords and hands with mana in order to mitigate as much damage as he could, the result from the attack could have been much worse.

Reign had stopped playing around now and in a blink of an eye, he was already in front of Yufan who was barely able to respond to his movement. Even though it was one of the early skills that he had created, the [ Lightning Charge ] was still the absolute best skill when it came to boosting his speed, even the skill that evolved from it, the [ Lightning Body ] wasn't able to boost him up that much.

The brief confrontation lasted for only 2 seconds before Reign was forced to go back as Yufan had suddenly recalled his phantom who quickly exploded after getting close to Reign. The explosion wasn't powerful and it wouldn't do much to Reign, but it was as if multiple alarms had been set off in his subconsciousness the moment he saw the phantom explode.

The mana still lingered in the air and Reign understood what would have happened if he stayed there. The explosion was more of a distraction, it was actually the mana that formed the phantom that was the true danger as it would probably attack the enemy before the latter could understand what had happened. Perhaps Yufan could also use it in order to envelop the enemy and then set the mana to explode.

The sheer thought of that happening set shivers down Reign's spine. Retreating at that moment was definitely the right call as he could see the dark-red mana suddenly moving through the air as it returned to Yufan. However the mana didn't return back inside of him, more and more mana was being released by Yufan whose whole body was suddenly enveloped by it as if it was a suit of armor.

The pressure coming from him was also increased as Reign could feel that his opponent had become stronger.

"I wasn't wrong, you are really strong," Yufan said before breaking into hysteric laughter. The mana covering him was also changing as one could see that it was condensing and becoming darker. In a couple of seconds, one could only see a black figure on the battlefield in front of Reign, the mana that covered him had condensed until the layer around him was only about 2 millimeters thick, of course, that didn't mean it was weak, it was the complete opposite as not only had the defense of Yufan increased by a large margin, the boost he was given thanks to the mana and his offensive capabilities had also gone through a big change.

Yufan suddenly moved, a 1-meter deep pit was left on the ground he previously stood on. Even though his speed was still not at the same level as Reign, he was much closer compared to before, not to mention that both his offense and defense were above Reign right now.

The two clashed and Reign could immediately feel his arms getting a bit numb from the collision. The incredible power that Yufan now possessed was truly overwhelming, well, it was to most.

Reign immediately activated all of the buff-type of skills that he had, suddenly his speed increased while he could perceive everything around him much clearer, he had, of course, used the only two skills he had which would buff him, the [ Lightning Movement ] and the [ Magic Swordsman Heart ], the latter would increase his perception and would allow him to have a clear head no matter what happened, it was incredibly beneficial even before when it was simply called [ Swordsman Heart ], but after going through the trials and choosing a different class Reign was able to evolve it to what it was now, other than giving the same buffs as the previous skill, it also gave him better control over mana.
