Basred nodded his head upon seeing the attack that Reign had used against the kobold. The dragonized kobold in front of them was not as powerful as an average dragonized kobold usually would be.
As a being that had the blood of a dragon inside of him, a dragonized kobold not only had an incredible defense, one that was almost unmatched by other beings of his own realm, but it could fly fast, could use dragonic flames, and was able to use magic to a degree.
The one they were fighting had incredible defense, but it was still a bit off compared to how it was supposed to be. It could fly, but it hadn't used a breath attack yet, and it didn't use magic at all, it was merely fighting by using its body.
Reign's attack had done some damage, but that was far from enough to defeat the kobold. Basred was more than its match, but after seeing how many monsters there were, and thanks to the fact that there was only one Tier V, he was confident that the rest of the group wouldn't face any difficulties with Siggurd with them, so he was taking it slowly.
'I don't know what their evolution challenge is, but if they can pass it and evolve soon, we might be able to actually take down a region or two and regain some territory.' Basred thought as he clenched his hand into a fist.
'With that, we will not only have a larger territory with us, but we will be able to have more powerful combatants, after many years, we might finally be able to make our comeback!'
That was the main reason Basred was taking things slowly and was letting Reign fight the kobold and gain some experience from it.
After all, with each Tier that a person went up, the difference in power became larger, but the fighting style that one would have would have to adapt as well.
All Tier V beings were much more durable than those below them, and their immense power allowed them to do crazy things. If Basred wasn't controlling himself when using his ability, he would be able to deal damage to the entire floor, which would kill all the Tier III monsters, but it would hurt his own people as well.
Siggurd, for example, could use his gravity in ways he hadn't shown before. If he went all out, then creating a powerful gravitational force in one place that would start pulling everything in and crushing it in a manner similar to a black hole could appear, killing everything in a 400-meter radius that wasn't a Tier V being.
If he was to do it near a hill, for example, he could destroy the entire hill with relative ease.
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm After all, Tier IV was only the entry to the Warrior realm, while Tier V was the middle of the Warrior Realm, which was where people would finally be able to bring out the full power of their abilities, while Tier VI was where one was able to bring the destructive power and control over their abilities to a new level, the most powerful amongst them being capable of leveling an entire town by themselves.
Basred wanted Reign, as well as Laura, to gain some experience with fighting against Tier V beings so that after they evolved, they could help them defeat the demons.
He knew that they wouldn't be able to stay for long after evolving, but they would be able to stay here for a couple of days, which would be enough to take down a territory or two.
"Come on, he's not that strong, you need to move around and make sure to not allow him to grab you," Basred told Reign who was dodging the kobold's attacks before glancing to the side as a couple of kobold mages appeared.
"Humph!" Basred snorted in annoyance before using a sonic wave.
Suddenly, the area in front of him was distorted as the wave made its way to the kobolds in an instant. The hard rocks of the underground all cracked as the kobolds were suddenly pulverized, turning into nothing but a mist of blood.
The sonic wave continued forward, killing any kobold that was in front of it before dissipating some 240 meters from Basred. In total, that one attack killed 60 kobolds, and it looked like Basred had barely used any power for it.
Reign glanced at Basred with his eyes wide open as the kobold did the same, but his eyes turned bloodshot in anger as he suddenly took a deep breath.
"Oh, so you can use a breath attack, huh?" Basred asked as the kobold suddenly opened his mouth, from which fire came out, heading straight at Basred who used his sonic barrier again.
The powerful flames actually started damaging the rocks as the ones around Basred started melting after a couple of seconds.
Reign sighed as he walked over to the kobold.
"You really never learn, huh?" Reign asked as he placed his hand on the kobold's shoulder before suddenly jumping up and using his sword to stab the monster through the eye.
The kobold screamed in pain as he started thrashing around with Reign still on his back. His flames went everywhere around the two, killing many kobolds who were too late to dodge them.
Reign clenched his other hand before stabbing the kobold from the side, right where the liver was. Of course, that was where the liver was for humans, as a monster, the kobold might have a different placement of organs compared to them.
Of course, that was not the reason why Reign was stabbing him there, it was simply because that was where he hit the kobold with the fourth sword, and where the scales had been penetrated.
His sword entered through the wound, causing the kobold to trash even more as Reign held him tightly before pulling his sword out and stabbing again, and again, and again.
The kobold finally spread out his wings, which pushed Reign back slightly before flying up and suddenly crashing to the ground. He was aiming to crush Reign, but Reign quickly let go of his sword that was still embedded in the kobold's eye before kicking off his body and landing on the ground.
The kobold managed to turn and spread his wings in order to stop his descent before staring at Reign and using his breath attack again.
Reign chuckled as he didn't move, which made Basred a bit nervous.
'This kid, has he lost his mind?!'
Reign suddenly opened his mouth and fired a beam of lightning at the kobold before it was able to spew out his flames. The lightning beam was only about 2 meters away from it when its flames erupted forward and met with the beam.
The two breath attacks collided as neither one of the two stopped using them, they poured more and more mana into their attack in order to overwhelm the opponent, but neither side was winning.
The main reason for that was because his breath attack was spread out. He was able to breathe out flames that would be launched forward and compared to the lightning roar, which was a breath attack was much denser and compact, it was unable to push it back.
The kobold's breath attack covered a larger area, it was as fast and powerful as Reign's, but the main difference was that as a Tier V being, his breath attack should be faster and more powerful, not equal to Reign's attack.
After a couple of seconds, both parties stopped as they couldn't use the breath attack for too long.
Reign smirked at the kobold who felt insulted that a being that was obviously weaker than him was able to force him to a draw. He roared before charging at Reign again, the sword still on his head.
As the kobold was flying at Reign, the sword suddenly moved.
It pushed forward, causing the kobold some pain as Reign manipulated it from a distance.
He was smiling as he saw how the kobold suddenly changed its course.
Basred was watching the entire thing and was dumbfounded by what he was seeing.
'Even if the kobold is weaker than an average Tier V, he's still a Tier V being, a Tier IV shouldn't be able to fight against it in such a way!'
'This kid, what the hell is he, to actually possess such power as a Tier IV being?!'
Basred, without even noticing it himself, flashed a smile as he looked over at Reign. His fists were clenched and he was feeling excited.
'With this kid helping us, I'm sure of it, I'm sure we can fight back against the demons.'
'I had almost lost hope, to think a person such as him would actually exist, and to think he would appear here for his evolution.'
Basred's face suddenly turned solemn.
'We have to make sure to forge a relationship with him, with Laura a member of his party, I'm certain that in the near future, they will be able to come back and help us.'
'If the rest of their team arrives, of which I have heard great things, I'm sure that we will be able to take back our planet!'
