Is this really a Game?!

The two giant monsters started fighting as the crocodile was enraged by the sudden appearance of the mass of flesh that was called a Doomgarg, a monster with demon blood that could cast powerful illusions whilst having the ability to incorporate the flesh and bones of its victims with its true body that was deep inside the mass of flesh it was covered in.

The ground squirms as the crocodile\'s giant body charged toward the Doomgarg, destroying the flesh beneath its feet. Suddenly tens of fleshy tentacles and bone spikes shot up from the ground as the monster tried its best to stop the crocodile before it could get close to its body and deal some heavy damage.

The thick tentacles quickly wrapped around the crocodile, only for most of them to get ripped apart by the crocodile whose charge continued, the bone spikes that the monster had summoned broke when getting colliding against the powerful skin of the crocodile who simply ignored them, some managed to pierce through its skin and draw blood, but the wounds were not even close to being serious enough for it to even consider them.

The whole field turned into a battlefield, the fleshly ground being completely controlled by the Doomgarg who was using it to its fullest and relentlessly attacking the crocodile who seemingly didn\'t care for any injuries it might get.

In its enraged state, the crocodile truly didn\'t care for any injuries, it only wished to catch and rip apart the creature that dared steal something from it. Upon seeing the Doomgarg who suddenly appeared in front of it, the crocodile of course believed that it was the monster that did everything and switched its anger at it.

The Doomgarg on the other hand was caught off guard, it was simply minding its own business, chilling and waiting for some monsters to get into its field so that it would use its powers to catch them and eat them when out of the blue, a giant crocodile that was as powerful as itself suddenly came inside its field and attacked it.

It could feel the intense anger the crocodile had and it immediately retaliated, even though it didn\'t wish to fight such a powerful monster, it wasn\'t going to let itself get bullied and attacked out of the blue like that.

The crocodile continued with its charge as more and more injuries pilled up on its body, thanks to how huge it was, however, they did little to slow it down, and soon it was in front of the Doomgarg whose body had completely changed.

The mass of flesh had disappeared and in its stead was an armored monster that now looked like a combination of a human and a monster. Thick bones were visible on the outside as they completely covered the monster that stood on four legs and had six arms.

The arms and legs were also fully armored, except for the feet and hands that were left alone and had thick tendrils for feet and toes. The tendrils were each shaped differently as some looked like drills while others were more similar to fingers.

As the crocodile arrived, the now 8-meter-tall Doomgarg met its charge. The four legs buckled down as the monster used its six arms to grab the crocodile by its giant head and stop it from biting it.

The field also changed as the fleshy ground retracted and moved toward the two monsters, leaving black soil visible to Reign and the others. The more of the ground retracted, the thicker the vines and bone spikes became and soon they were able to deal more damage to the crocodile compared to before.

The crocodile growled angrily as it used its long tail to deliver a fierce attack on the vines and bone spikes that were below and around it. The vines were immediately ripped apart from the fierce blow of the crocodile while the bone spikes were broken apart.

The Doomgarg held the head of the crocodile with full force as it tried its best not to let go of the monster and let it have more mobility. The tendrils that made up the finger quickly started working as well as the drill-like ones quickly started spinning and tried to pierce through the crocodile\'s head.

The powerful drills slowly made their way inside as the tough skin of the crocodile got pierced through by them, only for the Doomgarg to suddenly let go and jump to the side as a white beam was released from the crocodile\'s mouth.

The ground in front of the crocodile and the area some 120 meters in front of it was suddenly frozen by the beam of frost it had launched from its mouth. Even though the Doomgarg had tried to escape the beam, it was still a bit too slow as one of its legs and two of its arms were completely frozen and couldn\'t even move.

The bone armor that the Doomgarg had used to defend itself was almost completely useless when faced with such an attack and it had no choice but to discard the arms and legs, making them fall down and break into pieces.

But as fast as the Doomgarg had discarded his limbs, new ones grew right away and the tough bone armor immediately covered them as well. The Doomgarg shrunk a bit from doing so, but it was obvious that it didn\'t cost it much to replace the limbs.

The crocodile growled once again as frost started coming out from its body, freezing the nearby ground and tentacles. The Doomgarg however unleashed a terrifying roar as its body started glowing a dark red color. The flesh from the ground all returned to it, making its body now stand at 12 meters high.

Five large eyes could be seen on the monster\'s face that had no other features on it. The eyes all started glowing the same dark red color as the crocodile and the Doomgarg stared at each other.

Suddenly.

The crocodile turned to the side and unleashed another beam of frost before starting to thrash around and fight a seemingly invisible enemy while the Doomgarg stood and merely spectated.

"Huh, what the hell is the croc doing?" Shadow asked as he watched the battle with a confused expression on his face.

"An illusion!" Suddenly shouted Laura as Reign and Wolf nodded.

"Yes, it seems like it can also cast an illusion to its enemies, right now the crocodile is probably thinking that it\'s fighting the Doomgarg, while in reality it\'s simply thrashing around and expending its mana and energy." Reign said whilst putting his hand on his chin.

Since the battle had started, the Doomgarg had stopped using its illusionary power, and thus everybody was able to see what was happening in the field. The powerful frost attack that the crocodile had released previously made their skin crawl as they knew that they would be gone had it hit them.

The Doomgarg was no worse as its powerful body and illusions were able to confuse even the giant croc and make it fight the bare air around it. Both of the monsters were clearly way above what the group could handle and even if they went all out they could at most kill one of them, but not without anyone dying.

The battle continued for the next 2 hours, the Doomgarg wasn\'t able to sustain its illusion at all times, one thing that Reign and the others had noticed was that the monster needed to stay completely still while its illusion was cast.

Any movement and the illusion would be lifted, of course, the croc itself was also nothing to scoff at as the powerful frost power it had made it an incredibly powerful opponent for both melee fighters and long-range fighters.

Multiple times did the crocodile use its frost attack on a wide scale and hit the Doomgarg, dispelling the illusion and forcing the monster to fight. Both of the monsters went all out and battled it out with nothing to spare.

After two hours, the whole area was destroyed, the ground, trees, and rocks that were around the field were all either frozen or smashed to pieces.

The crocodile\'s head was disfigured as the Doomgarg had used four of its arms and combined them into something similar to a sledgehammer before smashing it down to the croc\'s head multiple times.

One of the crocs legs was gone, cut away by the Doomgarg while another one was smashed to pieces. Its tail was bloodied and a lot of its scales were gone.

The Doomgarg didn\'t fare much better, however. It was now only 3 meters tall and its mighty arms and legs were almost completely gone. It was now standing on two legs and only one out of the original six arms was present.

The thick bone armor was almost completely gone, smashed apart by the crocodile during their battle. Both of the monsters barely had any mana left and were now fighting purely with physical strength.

"Alright guys, you ready to do this?" Reign asked the others as they all smiled ferociously as they watched the two monsters fighting.
