"Run away!" Screams of pain and fear could be heard throughout the entire base as Reign and Wolf started their slaughter. The enemy was caught off guard, they had never expected somebody to actually be able to get inside their base.
With the base still functioning normally, the members of the organization all believed that the leader was still alive and that something must have happened that made him and the others unable to return right away.
The elder made sure to calm everyone down after 3 days had passed since the battle of Doncaster. The leader had personally told him that if he was to die, the base would change and that he and the others would sense the change right away.
After that happened, he would be able to claim the base for himself and move it to a different area, ensuring that the organization would survive.
It was unfortunate that even the plan that the leader had made was destroyed by Reign who had captured his soul. Not only did he folly his plans, but he was also using the leader's soul to actually get inside the base, something none of them had expected.
"How did they get inside?!"
"We can't get out, the entrance has still not shown itself!"
"What the hell is happening, weren't we the only ones that could enter the base, how did this happen?!"
The members of the organization shouted in panic as Reign and Wolf walked through the streets of the base calmly, killing anyone that they came across.
They were forcing the members to back away and slowly pushing them to a corner, which was actually the main building of the base. Reign and Wolf were going easy, they didn't wish to damage the base too much, but from what they saw, their worries were for naught as the building was actually much more durable than they ever imagined.
Their attacks barely left a mark on them and Wolf's flames couldn't do anything to them either.
"Incredible, just how did the leader gain access to this place, not to mention that it was from before the system's arrival." Reign said as he touched the walls of a building next to him.
"We knew that the ancient civilizations of Earth had mana available to them, but I never expected something like this was actually possible to create back then, just how powerful were they?" Wolf asked as he used his flames to set ablaze the streets and kill anyone who was hiding.
He had done so for a while now, using his flames in order to block the path of those that would try to go around to escape. With his flames baring the other paths, the enemy was forced to move as Wolf and Reign wished them to, forcing them all toward the main building of the base.
"In, get in!" The final elder shouted at the entrance of the main building as tens of members entered the building through its large open gate.
"Quickly, we can't wait for too long, otherwise they will arrive here!" The elder said as more and more people arrived, only for him to grit his teeth at the sight of Reign and Wolf who were calmly and slowly advancing toward them.
"Close the gate!" The elder suddenly shouted as he moved back before using his power to push back those that wanted to enter.
His power was enough to push everyone back by a couple of meters, and even though they tried to run toward the gate and arrive on time, the 4-meter-tall gate closed before they were able to do so.
"Elder, there are over 40 people left, please reconsider!" One member said as he stared at the elder with his fists clenched. An expression of panic was present on his face as he begged the elder to open the gate and let the other enter, only to be met with the elder's firm refusal.
"I understand your pain, but it is too late, if we are to open the gate now, they will enter and slaughter us all, this is the only way we can survive." The elder said with a calm, yet regretful voice as he put his hand on the shoulder of the young man whose face was covered in tears.
His two friends were out there, two friends with whom he had gone through many challenges and difficulties, people that he would give his life for, and yet he was unable to do anything to save them.
Outside the gate, the members of the organization crowded in front of the gate, banging on the gate and begging them to open it and let them in. Many were hugging each other, knowing their end was near.
"He's in, isn't he?" One man asked another who nodded his head with a smile.
"At least one of us will survive." The man said as the two took out a sword each and stared at Wolf and Reign who were climbing the stairs that led to the gate.
40 meters, that was the distance that separated the members from the two, a distance that even they could cover in seconds.
"Please, let us in, please!" People screamed as they looked back, only to be met with the faces of Reign and Wolf who were not bothered by their behavior at the very least.
"Does any of this make your memories come back?" Wolf asked the soul who was silent, looking around and observing all the splendid buildings that were present.
"Yes, this place especially, I think I have been here before." The soul said as it stared ahead at the main building and the gate that was barring their way in.
"Should I use my flames?" Wolf asked Reign who shook his head before taking out his swords.
"Look, there are still some that haven't given up, they deserve a proper death, at the very least." Reign said as Wolf nodded and stopped walking while Reign continued.
"I am the leader of Doncaster, the town you have attacked!" Reign suddenly shouted as he slowly climbed up.
"Your elders are dead, your leader has also been eliminated, and you are all that is left!"
"I will give you a chance, however." Reign suddenly said calmly as he stared into the eyes of those that had drawn their weapons and were staring at him.
"Those that can survive one attack of mine will be spared and allowed to leave."
"One, one attack?" One member said shakingly as he gulped.
"Yes, and I will not be using any skills, just a normal attack, survive that, and I will let you go." Reign said before spreading out his arms and continuing to climb forward.
"So, let us begin." Reign said as he sped up, only to be met with two men that had jumped at him from above.
"You said nothing about attacking you, however!"
"Don't blame us for using this opportunity!"
Reign smiled slightly at the two that used skills immediately and slashed down at him with their swords.
'Mid-grade Tier III, both of them.' Reign commented in his head as the attacks neared him.
One green sword was covered in wind and one that had turned completely black as a figure of a minotaur appeared behind the man, slashing down with its axe.
Five monsters suddenly appeared around Reign right before the attacks landed, attacking him from all sides immediately.
'Attacking me was only the diversion, huh?'
"Good plan, unfortunately for you, you're too slow." Reign said as he jumped up and slashed with his swords, destroying the two skills and cutting their swords in half. The two landed on the ground and stared ahead, a smile blooming on each of their faces.
"Ah, it seems we really were too hasty."
"Yes, a bit too hasty indeed." The second man replied as a thin line appeared on their throats before blood started flowing out from it.
'Make sure to survive, brother.' The two thought as they fell down, their eyes glued to the gate that their friend had managed to pass through.
The monsters suddenly stopped, only to be burned by Wolf's flames and turned to ashes.
"Alright, next." Reign said as he continued forward, scaring everybody to their core. The two that attacked him were the most powerful amongst them all, and even their skills had been destroyed by a single slash of Reign's sword.
"Please, please spare me, I will do whatever you want!" One man suddenly said as he fell down to his knees and begged Reign, only for the latter to scoff and cut his head off.
"There will be no such thing, the only way to survive is to defend against an attack." Reign said before continuing to attack the members ahead, killing each one in a single hit.
Those that fought back were killed quickly, with a slit throat or a stab to the heart while those that continued cowering were cut in half or beheaded. Reign would respect those that overcame their fears and defended, and made sure to keep their bodies intact as a sign of respect.
