Chapter 70 - 69

To defend himself from Reif's magic, the troll continuously uses his fist to punch the rock debris coming to harvest his life

A single punch alone already pulverizes these rocks and they were unable to harm him in the slightest

Even though the troll is already heavily injured, its innate constitution along with the help of the Shard of Brilliance enables it to continue moving as if the injuries weren't present

Seeing this, Reif raises his brows before he motioned with his hand. The gravity around the troll multiplied causing his injuries to worsen

His exposed flesh bursts, dying the ground with blood-red color. If that wasn't enough, Reif also puts his fingers together and it was soon covered with a dark energy

The dark aura made the space tremble as if they were afraid of having any contact with that energy

With a vertical slash of his hand, Reif uses yet another magic. The weird thing was that the troll's senses lose the movement of mana from Reif's hand

It was already too late when the troll senses the movement of mana again

The troll did his best to dodge but even then, one of his arms was still severed from his body

A fountain of blood burst out from him. The troll shouted in pain while holding his arm

To have one's limb be severed, just how painful that is?

The only good thing was that it happened in a short period of time. The cut was also extremely clean as if the troll's limb was made from tofu

It can be seen just how strong the magic that Reif uses

His power is really everything that can destroy his things. The one he uses just now was a form of spatial magic

His magic manipulated the space itself to attack his enemy directly even if he was far from them

That was the reason why the troll wasn't able to sense the movement of mana since Reif's magic was moving in a different space

It was an unpredictable magic since the target would only be able to sense it when it was already directly in front of them

If their speed or reaction time was slow, they can only let themselves suffer. Reif's magic can cut through space, what more for their pitiful limbs?

"H-human! H-how dare you!" The troll shouted angrily yet Reif didn't react

Aside from being more stubborn and not dying easily, this troll is not that special. Reif can easily kill him

The man cuts through space again and this time, it wasn't only the trolls' limb that was cut. It was his head!

If that wasn't enough, Reif even sent a crimson beam of lights that exploded upon contact with the troll

Even with the shard of brilliance with his head severed from his neck and was even utterly destroyed, there is zero chance for the troll to continue surviving

Reif descended down from the air as he approached the troll. His gravity magic starts tearing off the troll's carcass one at a time until he found what he was looking for

Just like its name, the shard of brilliance really looks like a shard in a diamond shape and Reif didn't waste any time as he uses the gravity again for the shard to land in his hand

The shard felt warm and sacred. It was brimming with lifeforce. Even thousands of the trolls earlier would not have the same amount of lifeforce that this treasure has

No wonder that his big brother wanted to have this shard badly

Just as Reif was about to leave the crime scene, he suddenly found himself imprisoned inside a barrier

The barrier was transparent but he can still sense them. Not to mention, several men in armor or robes even showed themselves and he can feel their hostility

The armor of these men isn't unfamiliar to him. They were similar to the one that the Paladin he encountered before was wearing

One look alone was enough for Reif to realize that these people are from the church

"Kill him!" A decisive and furious voice rang around. When Reif looked at the source, he saw Nath looking at him angrily

The man that ran away with his tails tuck between his legs came back after his Paladins and Priest arrives

The Priest wearing robes are the ones using magic to maintain the barrier to prevent Reif from escaping while the Paladins with stronger physique starts engaging him in physical combat

Reif looked coldly at Nath before he starts dealing with the enemies around him

A gravity field spreads around, making the Paladin feel as if they were carrying a mountain in their back

Their body feels much heavier than usual, making it harder to exert strength

In a fight against a large number of enemies, their advantage diminishes a lot thanks to Reif's gravity magic

If the enemies were numerous but they were all small fries, the gravity field alone would already take care of most of them

These Priests and Paladins were still not at Nath's level. Since Nath loses on Reif, what can these minions do?

In everyone's eyes, Reif seems to vanish from their sight. When he reappeared, his hand already pierce through one of the Paladins

Despite the hard armor they were wearing, the armor still cave in since Reif's punch also holds the power of gravity

Reif literally uses his fist to poke a hole in the Paladin's stomach but that wasn't all!

A crimson light glowed in the point of contact before a small explosion occurred. It was only a small explosion yet it already obliterated the Paladin's body making the others fearful

"Anyone that will try to kill me would suffer the same fate!"

Reif was hoping that these people would be afraid and stop fighting him. His big brother is still inside the lightless cube, who knows what is happening with Rhash already?

Reif wants to finish this as soon as possible!

To the minions that Nath would gain in the future, Reif's taunt might be effective

However, the current Paladins and Priests were completely loyal to him. Loyal enough that they are willing to sacrifice their lives for him

Thus, no one would back down as much as Reif hated this outcome

"If Big Brother was here, what would he do?" Reif asked to himself

If he was the one inside the lightless cube and his big brother wanted to deal with the enemies as fast as possible, what would he do?

Reif thought about that for a moment before his eyes locked on Nath

All these Paladins and Priests were obeying the Son of God. If Reif dealt with him they should break down, right?

Nath is still far from being healed. Reif injured him too fast that even divine magic wouldn't be able to heal him easily

Since that was the case, it would be easier for Reif to deal with him

With that in mind, Reif moved at rocket speed thanks to his gravity magic. In the next second, he was already in front of Nath with a crimson ball in his palm

The crimson ball exploded in a fan shape area, directly to Nath's face

Reif thought that this was too easy. Even if Nath was injured, isn't this still too easy if he already died?

This outcome was not something that made Reif happy and his gut feelings were true. It would be this easy!

In the next second, Reif's eyes widened in shock. When he looked below him, he saw that Nath's sword was already piercing through his abdomen

Reif cough out a mouthful of blood and he didn't know how Nath could still be alive after being hit in point-blank range but he was soon given some hint

From Reif's peripheral vision, he saw one of the Paladin's heads exploded into pieces, causing him to die

Reif nor the other people around didn't attack that Paladin but he still died. Just what does this mean?

Since he don't have much time to think too much, Reif moved away first while holding his stomach

He was already bleeding heavily due to how deep his wound was. The pain was so severe that Reif wants to pass out

A pure white light was left into his sword wound that starts eating his lifeforce away

How troublesome!

Reif cough out yet another mouthful of blood. He became too complacent. Winning against Nath one time causes him to unconsciously underestimate him

His big brother said that Nath is at his strongest when he has his comrades and Rhash also said before that Reif should not let his guard even if he already saw his enemy dying. Even then, Reif still let his guard down, how embarrassing!

Reif gritted his teeth while moving with the help of gravity. The Paladins used the chance that Nath gave them as they started attacking him relentlessly

Moving this much causes Reif's wound to worsen and the taste of blood never left his mouth now
