Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 518 Iʼm A Mad Man

?Raze had gotten all the answers he needed, and he had even made the resolve to act before all of this; now he was ready to get rid of one of the thorns in his side that had been bothering him for a long time.

ʼEven after death, your whole clan has given me too many troubles, I need to pull the plant out by its roots,ʼ Raze thought to himself.

As his hand reached out to the door handle, Harbour, who was still coming around and trying to figure things out, shouted out.

”Wait, are you heading there right now, in the morning while the sun is still out? Whatʼs your plan, how are you going to take them out?” Harbour asked.

”Thatʼs for me to worry about.” The door was then opened, and Harbour had immediately got out of his bed, touching the side of his head.

”Then, Iʼm coming with you. If youʼre doing this whole thing just for my sake, then I should at least come with you and do what I can,” Harbour exclaimed.

It was naive of Harbour to think that Raze would do something solely for him. This man was a stranger; if it werenʼt for the fact that it aligned with many of his goals, he wouldnʼt be doing this at all.

”Fine, but you have no say in what I do or how I do it.”

When Raze gave that answer, for a second, Charlotte looked at Himmy for a moment before she had decided herself.

”Raze… Iʼll support you on this as well,” Charlotte said. ”Youʼre going up against an entire clan. Even if theyʼre in a weakened state, itʼs going to be hard to do on your own.”

”I know youʼre strong, but if Iʼm there, I still think I might be able to help you.”

Charlotte, a mage who was older than Raze, for some reason, since meeting him, she had been drawn to him and what he could do.

She wanted to see just how Raze exactly was going to pull this off. Right now, it was almost as if she was about to witness a Grand Magus going into battle.

Mages would sell part of their soul to witness such a thing, and she had the same feeling right now.

”Charlotte, how are you exactly meant to help him when youʼre not a warrior yourself?” Himmy asked.

”Rules are meant to be broken, right? Thatʼs what you say at times,” Charlotte answered.

Himmy let out a big sigh, feeling that his words were now being used against him. He took out his weapon and placed it on the table.

”Look, Iʼm not like the rest of you. I have nothing special, so all I can do is investigate matters and keep Alter from going after you guys if you cause a mess. I only have this weapon, and Iʼve got no bullets, so Iʼm practically useless.”

”Just donʼt go dying on me.”

Charlotte smiled in response, but then felt the presence of Anna coming up from behind her.

”Are you joining up as well?” Himmy asked.

”If I had complete control of this task with no consequences, then from the beginning I would have gone straight to the Lethal Bite Clan base and asked their leader for answers.”

”These three, they all have a different goal on their mind. I will make sure we find out whether or not the Clan is behind the other incidents.”

For some reason, knowing that Anna was going with them as well settled Himmyʼs heart slightly. He knew that she would save Charlotte if things got too bad.

”Alright then, Iʼm turning a blind eye to all of this. So you better get the job done, and if you die, Iʼll go down to hell myself and kill you again for putting me in this position.”

There were no more words to be said, and Raze had already left the room. Harbour followed, and the other two had also decided to follow.

A small group of four was now heading to the Lethal Bite Clan.

ʼRaze, what makes you so confident that you can take on an entire clan yourself? I saw some of your power… but are you even stronger than that? Just what happened to you? Who are you? Is it possible that you are actually a Divine warrior yourself?ʼ

ʼPerhaps the fact that you are a mage from Alterian was a lie in the first place, and the deaths in your town were the same as what was happening here. Either way, Alter will have an incredibly large interest in you after this.ʼ

Walking through the stone city, Raze was just walking as if it was any other day, but he had the large building in sight, above the grand staircase.

As they were getting closer and closer, Harbour, who was starting to sober up, was continuously asking the same question.

”So whatʼs the plan? How are we going to get into the base? Are we going to try to sneak in, disguise ourselves as those from Alter asking for another mission, or are we going to try to find out where Bargo and the other warriors are hidden?” Harbour asked.

Right now, the group was walking a straight path, and they could see the staircase in front of them, along with two guards that stood by either end.

They were getting more and more worried that Raze was just going to walk in.

”Do you want me to tell you what Iʼve learned about you Pagna warriors, especially those in the higher clans?” Raze asked. ”Itʼs the fact that you are all arrogant and overestimate yourselves.”

”If we were to sneak in and attack the leader, once he started struggling, the whole clan would come to save him.”

”But if we attack from the front and get rid of you one by one, theyʼll think whoever attacked from the front like so…” Stopping his speech there, Raze wiped his hand in front of his face, and an iron mask appeared on him.

It was the same mask he had used when entering the dimension in the Demonic Faction to hide his identity, an iron mask with his black hair. It was enough.

”Theyʼll think Iʼm just a mad man,” Raze answered.
