Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 483 From One To Another

Exiting from the other side, the group along with several others had a far easier time compared to when trying to leave the Demonic Faction. All of those that had come from the Demonic Faction would be sent towards the left side.

Here they had entered a grand building where a group of people would have to wait for a while. The building itself was a structure that was amazing for oneʼs eyes. The flooring was made of a special type of marble while having carvings on the floor of several different names.

To the left and right, there were large paned colored windows. They could see the outside and the general public walking through the street, but due to the colored windows, it looked different.

On top of that, even the ceiling was impressive, having large paintings that covered it from end to end. The paintings themselves mostly looked like battles. There was often one person going up against many.

Inside the building, there were large benches where one could wait before they were allowed to leave the room. Around him, there were multiple members of the Lethal Bite Clan.

They had the same Pagna clothing as most, but rather than having their sleeves go up to their wrists, they were cut slightly short, between the elbow and wrist, coming halfway down the forearm.

ʼItʼs good, I walked past a few of the members, and it appears as if none of them noticed what I looked like. At the first assessment event, there was only the Lethal Bite Clan head that was there as well as some merchants.ʼ

”I still have to be careful, but in terms of just the Lethal Bite Clan members, I donʼt have to worry so much.”

A few basic questions were asked, but it all seemed more like a following of a procedure. For two factions going against each other. They seemed to have trust in the other side doing the necessary checks.

If anything, it more so looked like they were just keeping a tally of how many people were entering and leaving. What Raze did notice though was, just like the Demonic Faction, the Dark Faction was strict before sending people off to the other side as well.

”We hope you all enjoy your time here at the Dark Faction, and stay out of trouble,” one of the men said at the front as he pushed open the two large arching doors.

For the second time, light had beamed in their faces as they had a first look into the city, that was where the base of one of the top clans in the Dark Faction belonged to.

Immediately, Raze was quite impressed by the architecture he could see. It was more similar to the last city but did have a different feeling to it.

Most of the floor was paved with smaller individual stones on the ground, and they had wide winding spaces for one to walk. Most of the structures were a type of beige color, and close to one another.

Once in a while, a large structure could be seen with statues that had been carved in the front of them along with pillars, but what stood out above the city entirely was that in the distance there was a sight that could be seen no matter where in the city one was.

ʼIs that the Lethal Bite Clan base?ʼ Raze thought.

Almost like a pyramid in the center of the city, there were large staircases that led up to a site that was taller than any of the surrounding buildings. Just like the other larger structures, this too had grand giant pillars in front of it, and the space of the room inside, one could only imagine.

It reminded Raze of the academy in a way, if it was up high and floating in the air.

”Will you look at that!” Marcus said with a noticed face and his arms wide open. ”It looks like you were waiting for us. Where are the flowers?”

Marcus had seen a particular individual who could be spotted out a good distance away due to the large hat and his trench coat, and by his side wearing a beret hat was the one that would always follow the large man.

Himmy and Charlotte.

”You know flowers are more difficult to get here,” Himmy replied back. ”I am happy to see that you are here.”

”Happy to see that Iʼm here, or happy to see that we helped out your squad member!” Marcus claimed, as he looked toward Raze.

Stepping forward, Raze could confirm that this was indeed Himmy and Charlotte. It had taken him longer than he had thought, but he was back in the Dark Faction, and he was now with Alter.

”Look, you owe me one for this,” Marcus said.

”Why? Did he cause you any trouble?” Charlotte asked. ”I thought you were heading back anyway, so taking one extra with you shouldnʼt be considered a favor, right.”

Marcus was wondering how to handle that because Raze didnʼt really bring any trouble, nearly everything they would have had to face either way. Apart from a particular incident.

”You owe me one,” Marcus just said, looking at Himmy again. ”It was nice being with you kid; you are a little green behind the ears but after a few months with the group, Iʼm interested in seeing what you will become.”

It was time for the two groups to split up, and before that Raze wanted to say a couple of words to the others. First, he had approached Barlan.

”You are a righteous mage who has his own morals; I hope you stick to it,” Raze said.

Barlan gave a nod in response.

”Right now, you are a master of the water element; I suggest you learn the lightning element as well, and learn a few combination spells, if you combine the two together, you will be ahead of most mages you will come across.”

Before Barlan could even say anything, a little offended that someone younger than him had given him advice, Raze had moved on to Shing.

”Thank you for what you did for me. If there is something you need from me in the future, I will be happy to help you.”

Shing responded with a smile, and with that, the two groups parted ways, waving at each other. Marcus and his group werenʼt going to spend time in the city as they needed to head to the Alter base to give a report.

Whether Barlan would report his suspicions or not, Raze was unsure, but he had done all he could from his end, and in the first place, he wanted people to be aware of his name. He just didnʼt expect to have another problem other than Alter and the Grand Magus to worry about so soon.

After the other two had disappeared, Charlotte and Himmy started to walk off, and appeared to be heading down the streets to a certain location.

”Raze, I never expected to visit you here of all places!” Charlotte said, her voice relatively cheery. ”But for you to end up in the Demonic Faction, crazy things must have happened, right.”

”Right,” Himmy added. ”Letʼs skip all the small talk; why donʼt you explain to us how this all happened, how did you end up in the Demonic Faction, and why arenʼt you at the academy?”
