Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 541 A Stinging Dark Pain!

The nagging feeling that Elvlin had since she had seen their attacker had finally become clear, but she was wondering if it was better if she never realized who this person was in the first place.

After a direct clash with the young man, and him saying her name, she knew for sure, this was the Dark Magus. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

”Da-”

”Donʼt say my name,” Raze instantly stopped her from doing so. There were people watching and next to no one had put things together.

There were those in the room that knew him as Raze Cromwell, there were those that thought he was the White Dragon, and he even had the name the Dark Magus. On top of that, in the Demonic Faction, he was known as a real demon after taking out a large number of the Behemoth Clan.

Not a single person had put together that all of these people were a single person, not yet and he wanted to keep it that way for the time being.

”But Elvlin, I assume you have been tasked with a mission of sorts, if itʼs not one of the Crimson Crane, then I suggest you tell everyone else to back away,” Raze stated.

The other wanderers had yet to strike again. After seeing the clash with Elvlin and her hesitation they waited.

They could tell from the power she was the strongest and they were also confident now, that with her they could complete this mission, but if for whatever reason she decided to turn away from it then she would fail.

ʼThis is the Dark Magus, but how!ʼ Elvlin thought in her head. She had remembered the last time she had seen him fight. She was unable to witness much of what he had done when going up against Feebie the Lethal Bite Clan leader but she had a good idea of his strength.

ʼHe was an initial stage warrior, with strange powers, but he hasnʼt even used strange powers during this fight. The Qi energy he is using now is that of a middle stage warrior. So how did he manage to get so strong that he could do all of this?ʼ

ʼHe is definitely stronger than me now if we were to go head to head on our own. He might be the youngest middle stage warrior out there as well… but there could be one explanation for all of his strength at the moment.ʼ

Elvlinʼs eyes were now glued onto the glowing sword that Raze had held. She could feel its power and with the mission paying so much to each individual it had to do something.

Could the Dark Magus have gotten so strong in a short amount of time, or was the more likely scenario that the sword was the reason for his strength, if that was the case.

”Hey, it looks like thereʼs some history between you and this person!” Neon stated. ”We need to know, are you going to fight him or not. This guy is clearly too strong for us to take him out on our own, but I think we have a good chance if you go into this thing wholeheartedly.”

The other wanderers agreed, but it was only if Elvlin was going to take part in the fight, if not then they would back down.

Once again, her eyes were glued onto the sword.

ʼTheyʼre right, if we take him out here, I can get the Lux Sword for myself. The reward doesnʼt matter too much from the church with the sword and going back to the clan, I can have the other Crimson Crane members protect me.ʼ

ʼThis will help increase the clanʼs strength.ʼ

”Raze if I remember correctly,” Elvlin called out. ”The sword in your hand, is the Lux Sword, itʼs a sword that doesnʼt belong to you which is why we have been requested to take it back. So if you donʼt mind, then can you give the sword to us.”

Elvlin was hoping since the two of them were in the same clan, there was a chance that maybe Raze would agree and just hand the sword over.

”The way you just spoke to me,” Raze replied as he held out the sword and pointed it to Elvlin. ”I sense that If I donʼt decide to give you the sword, youʼre going to try force it out of my hand?”

Elvlinʼs eyebrows furrowed as she held the glaive tighter. She had helped the Dark Magus a few times already, even though they didnʼt know him that much.

She had practically risked her life for him on the orders of Alba, and this man didnʼt want to do one little favor for her.

”Attack!” Elvlin ordered, as she rushed forward ahead of everyone else, and performed a sweeping attack.

Raze swung his sword as well, matching it, stopping the large glaive from hitting him just by his feet. He was pushing back and thatʼs when he could see the others coming towards him as well.

While blocking the attack from Elvlin, he could see several coming at him, and lifting up his hand the edge of his fingertips started to spark.

”Do you think he needs help now?” Harbour asked.

”Thereʼs no need,” Anna answered. ”Iʼve sensed a whole change in his demeanor, it seems heʼs done taking it easy.”

Right out from Razeʼs hand a bolt of blue lightning came out and hit Neonʼs body. It shocked next to him touching Axe as well.

The only attack that managed to hit him then were the chains from the other Wanderers, but it bounced off his blazer like all of the other attacks before.

ʼThere it is, that strange power that he can use!ʼ Elvlin thought. ʼThatʼs what I was worried about, but If I can keep him busy, then they will be able to attack again. I know he has strange powers so I can look out for it.ʼ

Scraping the glaive across the floor, Elvlin then lifted and bashed her glaive from above, Raze carefully blocked the attacks, but they didnʼt stop there and he was continuing to stop the heavy attacks.

Even with his newfound middle stage, he was having some kind of trouble. After all, this was one of the members of the Crimson Crane.

As the attacks continued though, Raze was getting more frustrated and he felt another chain come towards him. Although he knew that his blazer would protect him he decided to grab it.

As soon as he did, the chain started to freeze. Each lock was covered in ice and growing fast.

Elvlin was coming in again for another strike, and Qi energy started to wrap around the sword, intertwining.

ʼFirst formation, Shadow Bind!ʼ Dashing forward Raze, hit away the glaive, and continued to swing. Visual Qi started to swirl around Elvlin until it completely covered her body. It restrained around her and was holding her tight, even with her strength she was finding it hard to break free.

ʼOh thatʼs very interesting, since the Shadow Bind skill uses Qi as well, the binding has gotten stronger now Iʼm at the middle stage.ʼ

However, his face wasnʼt one full of smiles, as he looked at the fellow Crimson Crane member.

”One of the things I hate more than anything in this world.. is betrayal.. and you were going to kill me for this sword.”
