Reincarnated Into A Human?

Killer stood up from the ground. With his mask broken, there was no longer any need to continue wearing it. He ripped off the remainder of the mask and threw it to the ground.

Jack started to laugh out loud.

"Looks like you hid your real strength this whole time!" Jack said.

Killer was currently ranked second in the academy while Jack was number one. Although their positions seemed close on the leader board, in reality to the academy, the two were very far apart in terms of power. In the few matches they had with each other, Jack would come out as the clear winner.

But right now, Killer had shown Jack skills he had never seen before.

Ray was currently injured quite badly; his fanged boar armour had been completely destroyed by the blowback from the spear and his whole body was damaged. The mana Ray used would take a while to come regenerate so all he could do was use his normal amount of Ki.

He was currently facing 5 opponents at the same time while damaged and with no chest armour. The 5 Ray was currently facing weren't as strong as the leader. If Ray had to face all 6 of them at the same time it would have been a big struggle.

Ray thought to himself it was lucky that Jack was here and keeping the leader busy. Although Jack originally came here looking for trouble, he was now helping Ray greatly. Ray would owe the man one in the future.

Ray was currently demonstrating amazing footwork avoiding his opponents' strikes, blending in with the shadows and then attacking them from behind. Ray was doing just enough to keep them all busy and not get hurt back.

The black sash knight skills truly came in handy at night time and at a time like this. What Ray needed more than anything right now was time. His mana would eventually return and in doing so would allow him to take out these small fries.

Killer pulled out a small glass test tube. The glass tube had a purple liquid flowing inside of it. Killer took a quick glance at Jack before deciding the drink the purple liquid. Jack thought nothing of it and thought it was most likely a healing potion created by alchemy.

There were many types of potions created using beast crystals and rare plants. Although none was as useful as mages' healing magic, some of them had special effects such as not allowing the user to feel pain and giving the user confidence. Other than that, they didn't really do much.

Jack went charging in towards Killer hoping to finish him off with one more strike.

Despite his current engagement with the 5 red masked men, Ray had been taking quick glances from the corner of his eye to spectate the two battle. When he saw the purple liquid, he had a bad feeling. As soon as Killer took the purple liquid his aura changed.

It got three times as strong and not only that, it went from yellow to a purple mix. It was the shadow plague.

"Wait!" Ray shouted at Jack.

Jack heard Ray shout from the other side of the arena. He was wondering what Ray was so worried about.

Jack continued to charge in. He knew that Killer wasn't able to hurt his body so what did he have to worry about.

As he got closer, he though his instincts were telling him to back away. At the last second, Jack decided to jump back. A swing from Killers spear managed to scratch the surface of Jack's skin causing him to bleed.

For the first time in a long time, Jack was shedding blood.

Ray was struggling to think of what to do. The opponents right now were too strong for Noir to fight, and Jack might attack the beast thinking it was on the enemy's side.

Ray had gained 5 mana points back in total. It wasn't enough to take out the 5 and Killer but he needed to do something fast.

Suddenly, Ray's mana points dropped down to 0. His gauntlets started to turn a slight ice blue chill colour. Frost was starting to form on parts of the gloves.

A red masked man swung his blade at Ray. Ray then grabbed the blade. Ice started to form surrounding the whole blade and then *SNAP* the blade broke in half. Ray punched the man in the stomach.

Ray had currently used the rest of his mana points to infuse the Ice attribute into his weapons.

The situation between Killer and Jack was now reversed. Jack was doing his best to avoid each and every strike. Luckily for him, his weapon was very durable, managing to block the spear. The attacks that Jack wasn't able to block started to leave cuts on his skin.

Slowly Jack was starting to get worn down.

"Not so strong now are you Jack!" Killer berated.

Jack was enraged by the comment. He wasn't used to being on the defensive in a fight and it wasn't really working for him. He then chose to attack back. With each strike Jack threw it was returned with a stab by the spear.

After 5 minutes of this, Jack had punctures all over his body. Blood was oozing out from him from all over.

"I'm amazed you can still stand, but this is the end."

Killer gathered his Ki for one last strike aiming straight for Jack's head. The attack was too fast for Jack to move.

When the blade was about to pierce his head, a hand reached out and grabbed the spear.

"How did you…!" Killer was shocked to see Ray come over here.

Killer looked at his men to the side and could see they all had been beaten. While Jack was busy fighting, Ray managed to defeat the five men using the ice attribute. He knew he wouldn't have enough strength after but that didn't matter.

Ray had the skill Mana Drain. He then went over to each of the five men on the ground and started to absorb their mana. Ray not only got his mana back, but he was able to nearly double his original mana pool.

The spear started to freeze; Killer quickly pulled it back. Jack started to collapse and as he was just about to hit the floor, he landed on a soft furry body. Noir had been summoned and took Jack to the edge of the arena.

"Now it's my turn!"
