The two clashed multiple times as the soldiers on both sides were only able to see blurs them, both of the men were far more powerful than other people of their own level were. The powered-up Yufan had incredible defense and even though Reign managed to slash him a couple of times he was unable to deal any significant damage to the man.

The feeling of being in danger was still present as Reign was a bit uncomfortable during the fight, previously he thought that the reason he felt that way was that Yufan didn't go all out and that it was because of the phantom but now he understood that it wasn't so.

On the other parts of the battlefield, the fights were going pretty much the same, the two vice-leaders fought against Lieara and Dain and Ilas and so far they were equally matched. The elite troop under Lieara was fighting against the strongest combatants of the army while simultaneously making sure that they couldn't destroy the pillars.

Ilas was still hidden from the enemy as he continued stalking him and trying to find the perfect opportunity to assassinate him, even though he still hadn't done a thing, his mere presence was enough to disturb the opponent and make sure that he couldn't focus completely on Dain and the ballistae that were continuously launching arrows at him. Of course, it wasn't all perfect as Dain's fingers had already started bleeding a bit, the huge bow and arrows weren't the weapon he always used because they simply needed a lot of strength in order to be efficient with it, Dain however lacked the strength and he could only use it while being on the wall, far away from the enemy and any disturbance.

Ilas knew that they didn't have much more time and that he needed to act soon, otherwise, Dain would be unable to continue the fight, and killing the enemy in front of him would be almost impossible.

Lieara was also having a tough time, the opponent facing her was actually a bit weaker than her, but his skill with the spear was incredible and she simply wasn't able to find any loopholes in his attacks to exploit. Lieara was a powerful combatant on her own and her skill with the halberd was great, unfortunately, the divide between her and the spearman was simply a large one when it came to sheer proficiency. So far neither had truly gone all out, they were trying to force the other in a disadvantageous position and force them to show their full power before responding, which, of course, made the battle into a slugfest.

Going back to Reign, he was currently surrounded by tens of magic missiles, suddenly all of them flew toward Yufan who did his best to dodge them, of course, thanks to the sheer number he was unable to dodge all of them, but the ones that did hit him were unable to deal any significant damage to him.

The damage however was still there, thanks to the missiles exploding upon impact the blunt force of the explosion was still able to do some damage to his mana armor. Compared to normal armors, the one Yufan had created using his mana was able to absorb a lot of damage and nullify it, treating it like a normal armor that was weak to blunt damage would be a great mistake.

The giant scimitar in Yufan's hand was also completely coated in the red mana, of course, compared to Yufan it wasn't the same as the mana was thinner and actually made the blade sharper while of course boosting its durability. With the boost he had received, Yufan was able to fight against Reign on even terms, of course, Reign hadn't still gone truly all out as he not only didn't use any of his weapon skills, but the mark he had acquired from Zeus was still not activated either.

Even though he knew he could instantly turn the tide of the battle with any of those things he still choose not to, first of all, he didn't know what kind of danger was lurking on the battlefield and he wasn't about to show any of his trump cards to his enemy without being certain that he could kill him. Secondly, even though the battle was currently quite even between the two, Reign was still confident that he could win, not only did Yufan lack any long-range attacks, but he was also incapable of injuring Reign as the latter was simply faster than him.

There was also a small detail that Reign had managed to spot during the battle, each time he managed to hit Yufan the armor would ripple in an attempt to distribute the damage and completely nullify it, but the mana that he sensed made it clear that that was not the only thing happening there as each time he landed a hit he was able to sense that less mana was present in the armor.

Of course, that was something that was possible only thanks to Reign's incredibly high mana sensitivity, even before he managed to level up his mana organ he was more sensitive to mana compared to the others, whether the reason for that was because of his Rank S ability or the still mysterious ability that he couldn't figure out, he didn't know.

There was also the case with his race, since he wasn't truly human then maybe that was the reason he was so sensitive to mana, not only mana, Reign could feel other things as well, back when they first entered the warehouse and fought against the elites there, he was immediately able to sense that something was wrong with Laura, he immediately felt a sense of disgust after seeing her, but the disgust wasn't aimed at her but the thing that was controlling her.

That was also one of the main reasons he lost control for a short period of time when Shadow had managed to incapacitate Laura, his very being had a great hatred for demons. Even when fighting against Aethion he was able to feel that the power hidden inside of him was getting restless, he didn't know if it was because Aethion was controlling the dead or because of his powerful soul skills. He tried asking Aethion if he knew anything about that but the old man simply shook his head in denial, Reign could feel that the geezer was not being completely honest but he decided to leave it be.

The lives of the two were now intertwined and he knew that the latter wouldn't do something that would hurt him. It was unfortunate that he was unable to talk to Aethion for quite some time now, he thought that the old man was simply keeping quiet for some time, but after looking into his consciousness he was able to see that Aethion was currently in a deep sleep, when that exactly happened and why, he didn't know, but he would, of course, find out after the latter woke up as he knew that Aethion's soul wasn't in danger of dissipating.

Yufan suddenly charged at Reign again, during the course of the battle the man was unable to deal any kind of damage to Reign, only back when he and the phantom were able to take Reign by surprise was any damage dealt. His now pitch-black scimitar cut through the air as Yufan suddenly accelerated and arrived right in front of Reign who simply looked at him with a calm and arrogant expression.

Reign quickly did a front flip and dodged the sideway slash from Yufan, he was right behind Yufan who was now wide open, while in the air Reign quickly slashed at the wide-open back of his opponent before landing on the ground. He quickly ducked as Yufan had turned around and swung his scimitar from the left, Reign twisted his body and immediately slashed at his opponent's legs a couple of times before lunging past Yufan who had raised his sword in the air and was bringing it down on Reign.

Once again Reign had found himself behind Yufan and continued the onslaught, even though Yufan had managed to fight Reign evenly for a period of time, it was obvious that compared to Reign he simply didn't have enough mana or stamina to fight a drawn-out battle for long periods of time.

His speed had dropped a bit and his whole demeanor had changed, the once calm and collected Yufan was obviously tired and panicked now, the longer the battle continued the more of a disadvantage he would have against Reign. He knew that he needed to do something quickly otherwise he would definitely lose.

Suddenly Yufan took his scimitar and plunged it into his stomach, the action caught Reign off guard as he never imagined his opponent would ever do something like this.

"You really are fcking strong, but it ends now!" Yufan suddenly shouted as he drew the sword out of his body, an incredible killing intent once again appeared as it covered the whole battlefield. Reign who was at the center of it felt it the most and even he was unable to shrug it off like before.

Yufan simply smiled at Reign who widened his eyes in shock as he felt someone had appeared behind him, he quickly turned around and managed to block an incredibly thin sword that was coming at his throat, upon seeing the person who had attacked him however he widened his eyes once again in disbelief.

"Shadow?!"
