Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 619 Show Them Your Power

”So, whatʼs the plan, boss?” Liam shouted out.

Just like the Light Faction, the Dark Faction students had gathered in a circular formation around the beast that was rising around the center.

Seeing this, even more boos had come from the crowd.

”Theyʼre just going to copy the Light Faction!” frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

”Figures, thatʼs what those dirty pigs at the Dark Faction would do.”

”Hey, donʼt say that, thatʼs not fair to the pigs, these guys are even lower than pigs.”

”Even if they do copy, do they really think theyʼll be able to do the same thing as the Light Faction? That would be impossible,” Bubble said, observing the situation.

Anna felt the same way. What they had witnessed the Light Faction do, it had to be trained for, and she doubted the other academies would train for such things.

”Weʼve been ordered by the Principal,” Safa said as she pulled out her spear. ”To not worry about how long it takes, but to show the others up and show them our strength!”

In the Dark Faction, people were also noticing that Safa, the female of the group, was taking charge rather than Ricktor or Mada.

Not just that, but there was meaning behind the message. They knew that more points were to be awarded for how quickly the beast would be dealt with.

This event was a time trial to see who could defeat the beast quickest. The Principalʼs order was essentially to not worry about how long it takes, but to show them what weʼve got.

The chains had been unleashed from the beast, and it immediately screamed into the air in anger. It then started to look around at who to go for.

That was until Simyon spread his legs out and put two fists by his side, and unleashed a large amount of Qi flowing from his body.

The beast, recognizing this, quickly turned its head to Simyon and started to charge right at him. It ran as fast as it could with its mighty size and force.

Yet Simyon stood there still. The Qi was still wild all over his body until the head of the beast was approaching. Moving his hand out, the Qi that was fluctuating wildly around Simyonʼs body condensed down, and he covered his head with both his arms in a cross shape.

The beastʼs large body crashed into Simyon, and the contestants flinched as they expected the young boy to go flying.

When they looked back down on the ground, instead they could see that Simyon had only moved a meter or so back in the ground. He had completely taken the hit, and there wasnʼt even a scratch on his body.

If anything, the beastʼs head had flung back and ricocheted as if it had hit a giant boulder.

”Whatʼs with the kidʼs body!” Bubble commented ecstatically. ”That is a level five beast, what took three Light Faction students, one boy was able to deflect the attack on his own!”

Simyonʼs body was now at the Unique grade; it was just as strong as a level five beast. Sure, he could have avoided the hit or tried to attack, but this was his way of showing off his skills.

”Now itʼs time for you two, go!” Safa ordered. She still hadnʼt moved from her spot, and she felt like there was no reason for her to; she was watching everything from a birdʼs eye view of what was to happen.

”Do you think we couldnʼt have figured that out ourselves?” Mada said as he was running forward; his visual Qi was flowing, a trail of water was appearing behind him.

”You like to complain; I thought you would have been used to her by now,” Ricktor said as he ran forward with a sword in his hand as well, an erupting power exploding behind him as well.

Both of them then jumped up in the air at the same time, Mada swinging his leg right at the beastʼs head, and Ricktor swinging his sword.

Both of them attacked the beast at the same time with their massive amount of strength, and the beastʼs entire body was lifted up into the air.

It was flying and about to come crashing into the side of the coliseum wall, that was until the warriors standing on the edge had pushed back with their powerful Qi, causing the large beast to move toward the center again and fall on the front of its body.

”Those two… theyʼre incredibly powerful attacks,” Lince said, clearly surprised. ”What the Light Faction did was impressive, but on an individual scale, they never showed power like this.”

”Itʼs almost as if theyʼre trying to tell us, at any point in time, just one of these students would have been enough to deal with the beast on their own.”

”And do you think we couldnʼt?” Mantis had spoken for the first time in a while, seemingly annoyed by the comment.

What Lince had also noticed was that Raze was smiling at this fact. What could the reason be? Maybe it was because they were strong opponents, or there was something else.

ʼThese guys, all of them, have been training hard, incredibly hard, and I havenʼt even seen everything they can do yet,ʼ Raze thought.

At that moment, he almost felt like a proud father seeing those around him growing and walking on their own two feet.

They were clearly going to grow into warriors that wouldnʼt need him protecting them.

The beast was getting up from the floor; it wasnʼt done yet, and due to none of the Dark Faction members continuously attacking the beast, it also meant they were taking longer.

Each person was just waiting to show what they had, and now the crowd was quite excited to see who was going to show their power next.

When the beast stood on its two feet, thatʼs when a third person had come running up. A boy with an eyepatch on his eye and red hair.

He jumped up into the air, coming from behind the beastʼs neck. Then with his hand, he covered his sword.

Watching all of this, that was when people were starting to realize something.

”Wait a moment, doesnʼt this look familiar?”

”No, it canʼt be,” some of them said, with their mouths left open, as they saw the next move.

With the sword shrouded in Qi, Liam then did a quick slash right behind the neck of the beast. Blood splattered out aiming towards his face, but he swung the sword, hitting the blood, before landing on the ground, and the beast falling to the floor, and to its death.

The crowd was stunned into silence at that moment. Because what they had just witnessed was a moment of déjà vu.

Someone from the Dark Faction had eliminated the beast in the same way as that from the Light Faction, but it wasnʼt just similar.

It was near enough to the same technique that Hannah had used… how was it even possible? How could someone from the Dark Faction know such techniques?

In the entirety of the crowd, there was one person that knew the answer.

”He… Iʼm sure of it, he has the system, but why does he have the system? Is he part of the Red Fortis? What is his relation to them?” Anna said.
