Is this really a Game?!

Next were the gloves and there was no debate about who should get them. The defense present on them was incredible, with the downside being that there was no skill that could be used from the gloves. Even so, having a defense of 100 points was something that not even Tank\'s Rank A \'Rocky Armor\' had and it would definitely be helpful for him in the future.

"Now, what should we do with this thing?" Reign suddenly asks as he stares at the blood-red glaive on the table. As if responding to the gazes of Reign and the others the glaive continues to emit intense killing intent that soon fills the room. To say that the glaive was powerful would be an understatement, not only did it have more attacking power than Wolf\'s sword, but the longer you fought the more powerful it became.

It was similar to the [ Berserk Sword ] that Reign got in the first dungeon, of course, the sword was only a Rank D and it would only get a slight boost during a fight. Since this was the only skill that the glaive had, Reign and the others could already imagine the kind of boost it might have during a prolonged battle, of course, the risk of losing your mind while using the weapon was truly too risky and nobody wanted to try it out.

Even Reign whose mind was seemingly protected by his mysterious second ability wasn\'t willing to use the weapon, of course since it was incredibly powerful it would be a waste to just let it rot. Reign and the others put it back in the inventory before going downstairs to the training area.

The players were already down and were currently sparring with one another, after seeing Reign and the others they thought that the training session which was postponed for the day was going to be started, but after finding out that they were simply going to test some weapons they stood aside and eagerly awaited the spectacle.

Wolf was the first one up, he took out his sword and stood in front of a big steel dummy, Reign had previously spent 200 S coins in order to buy the dummy, it boasted incredible defensive power and they couldn\'t leave a scratch on it with their normal attacks, the system boasted that no creature under the first evolution could damage it with normal attacks.

It was a weird statement and it was only later when they inquired with Eldar that they found out what the first evolution was. Level 50 is the stepping point for evolution, monsters could evolve before of course, but level 50 is when a true evolution starts and it was a huge change. While the monsters can evolve and change their race previously, the first evolution from level 50 is when their whole being was changed to a different level, it didn\'t mean that monsters would change their race, it was a much more subtle but powerful form of evolution where they were finally unlocking their potential.

It was the same for every single race in the universe, the genetic code hidden deep inside of everyone would activate and they would start changing from the inside. Those that were unfortunate enough not to unlock their innate ability before level 50 would finally unlock it after that, not only would they become stronger but their souls would change. Monsters that reached level 50 had higher intelligence compared to the lower-leveled ones and were much more dangerous.

That is the reason why it was called the first evolution, even though monsters had the ability to evolve before that. It was simply because their whole being, body, and soul would go under a great change that was in most cases not even visible.

Wolf takes out his sword and slashes with all of his might towards the dummy.

Clang!

As expected, not even a mark was left on the dummy, Wolf\'s hands shook violently from the powerful blow before he stabilized. He takes a deep breath and channels mana towards his armor, the black armor responds with a slight vibration before the red lines seemingly come alive. The red lines shine and start moving along the armor as an incredible power was being let out by them, Reign and the others who were standing a couple of meters behind Wolf were able to feel the just how intense and powerful the chaotic energy hidden in the armor was while even the other players who were more than 10 meters away trembled slightly after feeling it.

With a shout, Wolf suddenly slashes towards the steel dummy again, an incredibly thin layer of energy was coating his sword as it neared the dummy.

Skrrrrrreee!

The sound of Wolf\'s sword scraping the metal dummy could be heard throughout the underground training facility. The uncomfortable noise forced everyone to put their hands on top of their ears for a moment before looking at the dummy again.

It was still standing, but contrary to before there was a visible cut on its exterior, it was barely cut but compared to earlier it was a great change. One should know that even after Reign attacked the dummy with his katana and slashed it over 10 times there was still nothing on it, for the chaotic energy to give Wolf\'s sword the ability to cut it with a normal attack was a testament to how powerful it truly was.

"So, what do you think?" Reign suddenly asks Wolf who was seemingly lost in his own thoughts.

"It\'s powerful alright, but it seems I can only use it for about 1 minute before it runs out, I don\'t know how fast it can recharge though," Wolf says before coming back to Reign and the others, his armor was back to normal as the red lines didn\'t move.

Reign nods at him before stepping forward, it was his turn now, the only thing he wanted to test was just how powerful the killing intent in the glaive was, amongst all of them he was the one that had the highest defense against soul attacks and the like, Laura was right below him as her mind was strengthened after her ordeal and possession.

Reign takes out the glaive and a thick killing intent immediately covered the training grounds. The trainees started shaking a bit as they stared at the glaive with fear, they could suddenly see a river of blood flowing from the glaive as it neared them. Suddenly a figure came in front of them as the river of blood disappeared, it was a hallucination, the killing intent from the glaive was so powerful that it made them hallucinate for a moment and if not for Laura coming in front of them in order to mitigate the killing intent they would perhaps have passed out by now.

They all trembled slightly after the realization, they were far away from Reign and still, they were able to feel such a thick killing intent, how powerful was it for Reign who was holding the weapon?

The answer was that it was difficult, even for Reign who had such a high resistance towards soul-based attacks and effects thanks to his willpower stat and his ability, he still needed some time before he could even move. The killing intent that the glaive let out was above anything he had felt before, just by holding this glaive he was being compelled to go out and start killing people.

People, monsters, gods, it didn\'t matter what it was, the glaive simply wanted to see slaughter being committed. After 10 seconds Reign was already covered in a cold sweat, but he was finally able to move and act normally, of course, he knew that this was only the beginning, the longer one fought the stronger the effect of the glaive, perhaps the killing intent and the corruption would become twice if not even thrice as powerful as it was now.

Reign knew one thing, he couldn\'t let anyone use this weapon, it was simply too dangerous. Even when having it in the inventory Reign was still concerned that something may happen, that was just how powerful of an effect it had. Reign holds the glaive with both hands before swinging it down on the dummy.

Clang!

The sound of metal colliding with metal was heard as there was no evident damage to the dummy, upon closer inspection, however, Reign could see a thin scratch that had appeared on it.
