Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 486 A Weapon From Another World

?Raze hadnʼt run into Zon for a long time. It had been a while now, but he remembered the strange manʼs name and appearance because of one reason: he was immensely powerful.

Raze knew in his state he couldnʼt beat him, and from what he had heard, he had bested both Dame and Gunther, a peak and middle-stage warrior, both together. The reason why he appeared or wanted to meet with Raze wasnʼt clear.

Now right in front of him was Anna, a person that was most likely from the same world.

”Himmy said that she was the only known person from her world. If she finds out that I know something about a strange man, then maybe she will press me for questions. I did meet him in another dimension and not in Pagna.

For now, while I donʼt know what Zon wanted, I will stay quiet about it,” Raze thought.

”Sorry that I am not too shocked,” Raze answered. ”I suspected that there will be otherworlders from my talk with Himmy, and he had warned me beforehand. If anything, I was surprised to see that you look like you do.”

The answer seemed to be acceptable to Anna, as she didnʼt ask for any more details, and instead, Himmy was the one to take the lead from there.

”Alright, thatʼs enough of introductions. I would like to continue with the task that we have been given. We have been chasing the tale of these deaths from clan to clan for a while now with no results, and it seems the other Alter group that replaced us seemed to have gotten somewhere.”

”Wait!” Charlotte said. ”What makes you think that the other group of Alter found out something?”

A smirk appeared on Himmyʼs face as he shook his head in disappointment.

”You have been with me a while and you still donʼt understand. The fact is that we are still alive, and they are dead, means they got further than us. Although my condolences are with the other group, my competitive side is making me feel somewhat sick. You know I was good at my job back in the day, or at least I thought I was.”

Charlotte rolled her eyes. Too many times she would hear Himmy ramble on about the number of cases he had solved, catching mass murderers, and solving cases that no one else could get to the bottom of, but it was just hard for her to grasp that someone could do such things with no magic.

And he hadnʼt gotten to the bottom of this case yet.

”Anna, letʼs go over the details. I imagine you have gathered and downloaded all the information to do with the case and what the other team have reported,” Himmy asked.

”Of course,” she answered.

”Wait, can we talk somewhere more comfortable, maybe somewhere we can sit down?” Charlotte asked.

Immediately, Anna got into a sitting position, and she was soon hovering in the air, as if she was sitting on an invisible chair. It was really impressive she could even keep such a position. It was something not a normal human was able to do.

”You can sit on my lap if your legs are tired; I function quite well as a seat,” Anna stated.

The response from Charlotte was slapping the top of her forehead. She needed to be careful with Anna, who was very straightforward and took things typically like that of a robot.

”Itʼs alright, no one can hear us here anyway,” Charlotte replied.

”Before we continue, what I do want to do is talk about Raze and try to gather more information,” Anna declared while looking his way. She had gotten out of her awkward seating position and was now stood back upright.

”You are the only survivor of these deaths. In a household usually there is not a single survivor. Itʼs quite impressive, but you stated that you knew next to nothing. In order to find those behind this, I believe we need to know the reason they are doing such things, and I have come up with two conclusions.

”The first is a test. The reason why it might have been so hard for us to keep a trail of what is happening is because the killings could be done by a special item. This would also explain how they were able to defeat an Alter team.

”An item that allowed them to kill in such a way, it might be that they are testing such a thing and trying to find out its other uses. That is the first conclusion I have come to.

”As for the second one, I believe that they might be trying to perform a ritual of sorts.”

”A ritual, thatʼs interesting, what makes you say that? From all the deaths we have noticed so far, there hasnʼt been any markings or such at the scene,” Himmy asked.

”In the past, there seems to have been similar cases along Clans. They have attempted things with items and rituals, trying to get those from the Divine realm to come down.

”This is a common trial among the clans. If they are able to get the Divine realm beings down to the regular Pagna realm and still having them obtain full power, then they will have strength in this world and ruin the balance of the realms.

”The sacrifice of multiple people to obtain such a power or make such an item is quite common. As for why they might be after Raze and his sister, it could be because they needed them to be dead to complete the ritual, or they might have seen something they shouldnʼt have.

”Either way, in both of the cases it would make sense for them to go after Razeʼs life. If we take these possibilities, maybe we can find something that will lead us to the next location before they start the killings again.”

Himmy nodded. They were all just theories for now, but while they had nothing, theories were a good thing.

Raze was also taking everything in, and it made him think of a theory himself.

ʼThe clans try to get those from the Divine realm down to Pagna. I guess they mean so in a permanent way. Although I have the item that will allow one to do this, itʼs not permanent and only for a limited amount of time.

ʼBut it makes me wonder, the book I used to transmigrate did something similar, and there is also the spirit following me? What if that spirit is also something from the Divine realm? At the moment, itʼs just something that doesnʼt have the full power to be used?

ʼAm I just a vessel for it, is that why itʼs trying to protect my life, because itʼs the only way it can come down here?ʼ Raze thought.

”Thatʼs the conclusion we can come to with the information we have,” Anna continued. ”There isnʼt much information that you donʼt already know that had been submitted by the new team. They persisted before all details could be passed over.”

”Then I guess that is everything then,” Himmy said, stretching his arms. ”As I suspected, weʼre going to have to head to the crime scene of where the Alter team was killed and try to find something.

”This is going to be a fun first mission for you, Raze, and since it is your first mission, I have something to give to you.” frёewebnoѵēl.com

When Himmy walked over, he reached into his trench coat, and as he did, he pulled out a relatively heavy object and placed it in Razeʼs hands. He didnʼt know what it was before, but he had seen this item several times.

”What you have in your hands right there is something called a gun.”
