Is this really a Game?!

The entire hall, well, the walls of the hall, had been neatly cut through as well. The defensive array placed here was enough to allow even peak Tier IV combatants to fight without having to worry too much about destroying the entire place, but when a being whose strength surpasses Tier IV attacks with full strength, even the array was unable to withstand it.

The entire floor started rumbling as the ceiling started falling down. The immense storm of mana made cracks appear before the ceiling broke into pieces and crashed down, forcing everybody to stop fighting in order to dodge the debris and not get crushed.

The floor cracked as well thanks to the debris, and soon, some parts of the floor caved in before being crushed, turning the once spacious hall into one filled with cement and steel armature that had been used to build the ceiling.

Wolf and the others dodged the debris that they could dodge while simultaneously destroying the ones that were impossible to be dodged. Tank had even used his shield to block some of the debris before pushing it away.

The enemy did the same thing, but instead of all of them grouping together in order to defend themselves more easily, the remaining 'heads' all grouped together while the others grouped up as well, dividing their strength.

When the situation came under control, Wolf and the others immediately took notice and took the opportunity that was in front of them. With their enemies divided, they quickly attacked the second group which was weaker.

The 'heads' weren't too far away, but Tank, Wolf, and some of the others stood between them and the rest before clashing against them. Their goal was to stop them from reinforcing the enemy so that their friends who were behind could defeat them quickly before coming over here to help them out.

"Your boss is finished, you should just give up!" Aelrinder shouted at the enemy as he stabbed with his spear. The enemy was indeed interested in simply surrendering. They had seen for themselves just how tyrannical Reign's strength was in his Nephilim form and knew that they couldn't defend against such a powerful opponent.

"No, the boss is still alive, she will take care of that man, you guys hang on, we're coming to help you!" One of the heads shouted before clashing against Wolf and being pushed back slightly.

Wolf glanced at the man with some interest as he could sense that he was fully certain that the Butcher was alive.

'Is it some sort of skill?'

Behind all of them, right where the pillar of mana once stood, Reign dropped a large piece of the ceiling that had crashed down at him. He was still in his transformed state, but the clock was ticking and he knew that he didn't have a lot of time left before the transformation ended.

He was still flying with the help of his wings and stared down, trying to locate Amanda in order to deal the finishing blow and end the battle once and for all, but he couldn't find her.

"Be careful boy, she's not dead yet."

'I know, I saw her move right before my attack, she should have been able to dodge the attack completely, but I'm certain that she is injured, if not from my attack, then from being forced to stop the evolution, the mana storm, or the debris that fell down on her.' Reign said as he nodded his head while continuously scanning the area in order to locate Amanda, only to suddenly move to the side.

Bam!

A giant tentacle suddenly slammed down on the position he had previously been in before pulling back into the body of Amanda.

When Reign saw her, he was shocked as she no longer looked like she did before, hell, she didn't look human at all.

Her entire body had changed into a 3-meter tall and 1-meter wide gray, humanoid goo monster. Her head was no longer connected to her neck but was right in the middle of the monster's stomach. Black lines could be seen on the gray goo that continuously dropped down on the floor from the body of the monster before crawling back to the body and being assimilated into it.

"How dare you do that to me?!" Amanda yelled out in frustration, but her voice was no longer the same either. It was distorted, filled with rage but also a weird tone that Reign couldn't truly comprehend.

"What the hell happened to her?" Reign softly asked as Aethion shook his head.

'It seems like she was never fully human, she managed to assimilate this monster, but she failed to fully fuse with it, during the evolution, it seems your soul attacks were enough to destabilize her and allow the monster to take control, well, most of the control."

[ Abomination Amanda ]

Reign used his [ Inspect ] skill and managed to see the name of Amanda above her head. Previously, when he tried to use his skill, nothing showed up as Amanda was a higher level than him and had higher stats, but now, he could see the name, but that was all.

Her stats were still hidden from him, as was everything else.

'So it was an abomination, the poor girl was probably attacked by it in the past and managed to somehow gain an advantage during the assimilation process and had taken control of the monster, that is probably how she was able to build those machines, her mental state had probably changed as well at that time." Aethion softly said before shaking his head once again.

"The abomination has managed to take over, it will definitely not allow her to take control again, she is as good as a dead boy, but she is still dangerous, be careful." 

"I know, I can sense her energy, instead of being weakened after failing the evolution, she's even more powerful now, just how the hell did that happen?"

"Could be a partial evolution, or it could be the abomination using everything it has in order to face you right now, after all, it knows that it needs to defeat you to survive, so it will do whatever needs to be done to kill you." 

Reign nodded his head before flapping his wings and charging at the Abomination whose stomach suddenly rippled before spikes were launched at Reign. Each of the spikes was 10cm long and about an inch thick, and there were tens of them.

Reign quickly stopped before clutching his swords. He started swinging and deflecting the spikes, but some managed to pass next to his swords and graze him, leaving some small wounds on his body.

Reign quickly flapped his wings and went up as the Abomination continued launching its spikes at him, following him closely. The spikes would travel more than a hundred meters away before suddenly stopping and returning to the Abomination while Reign was doing his best to outfly them.

Suddenly, he found himself right above the Abomination, and upon seeing a chance, Reign gritted his teeth before placing one of his swords in the sheath. He quickly assumed a low stance, which seemed quite weird as he was mid-air, before grasping the sword and disappearing from sight.

Lightning was left in his wake, making a line of lightning from the air above the Abomination and ending at it. A large gash appeared on the Abomination as Amanda's face was seemingly cut in half, but the gray goo simply gushed in the cut, making it seem like it never existed.

Reign was now behind the Abomination, and he wasn't about to let it have any rest. He quickly started swinging his swords, and instead of using lightning, he poured his darkness into both of them.

Each swing of his sword would create a wound on the body of the Abomination, and each wound was made by darkness energy, a kind of force that destroyed everything it touched, making the parts that were cut completely gone from the Abomination's body.

"Smart choice master, with darkness energy, you can completely annihilate the parts that you touched, making the overall body of the Abomination smaller and smaller," Jared said from the side as he stared with great interest.

Reign suddenly jumped up before flapping his wings and appearing to the side of the Abomination that had just turned around and continued swinging his swords. The Abomination suddenly roared as over a hundred spikes were expelled from its body, some of them hitting Reign.

Two of them had stabbed deep inside of him, one spike stabbing his shoulder, and another stabbing his leg. Reign simply clenched his teeth before pouring as much mana as he could in a short period of time before slashing down at the Abomination, cutting it in half.

The two pieces immediately reconnected, but Reign's actions were slowly starting to pay off as he was able to notice that the body of the Abomination was smaller than before, not to mention that its movement was becoming more and more sluggish.
