Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 1013: Forever In Debt

With the large beast ripping up a chunk of the island, Raze and the others believed that they had to be near something. Whether it would be the Golden Globe itself, or something that would help lead them to the Golden Globe, honestly they didn’t really know, but they decided to progress within the same vicinity and general area they were in.

The ones leading up ahead were Lince and Raze who were quickly using their foot techniques and other skills to try and locate what was around them. Raze was relying more so on Lince’s skills than his own.

If he was able to use his magic maybe he would have some type of edge, but he was pretty clueless on the island. Still, there was something that was bothering him and it was the people that were on their tail since they had been here.

”So what’s the deal with them, are they working with us?” Raze eventually asked.

”Right, we had a run-in with someone, someone incredibly powerful, they didn’t seem to be from any of the factions,” Lince explained. ”So at the time it made more sense for us to create an alliance.”

Raze looked at the condition of them all, and they all seemed to be in relatively good condition, making Raze believe whoever they had run into, they had dealt with, or were at least able to deal with them.

”Which is why we have agreed to go to the Golden Globe together, when or after we find the item, that is another matter altogether. As those from the Light Faction, I don’t think we have to worry about them till we find the item,” Lince answered and then looked back again, at another two that were joining them.

”And what’s the deal with those that you brought?”

”Them,” Raze said, referring to Krynic and Impress. ”I met them with a large group of Light Faction warriors. I agreed to let them be as long as they helped lead me to the item, and they seem to have led me in the right direction.”

”But if you’re worried about them helping the other Light Faction members, then you don’t have to worry too much. The two of them are incredibly weak, they struggled greatly with a few beasts.”

Lince had to turn his head to get a second look at the two individuals, to see if he was the one who had made the mistake, but he was sure of it. With his position within the Demonic Faction, he had been in charge of gathering information and from his information he was sure that the woman was Impress, an Elder from their Dawnblade Clan.

As for the other, it was Krynic, the strongest spear user from the Aurora clan. No one on Pagna in their right minds would refer to the two of them as weak… yet Raze had done so.

’He isn’t the type to be bragging about his strength? Is he mistaken about something? No it can’t be… could it?’

Zon had extracted the crystal from the beast’s body. Any remnants of blood had disappeared, evaporating from it. The crystal itself wasn’t hot, yet for some reason the blood was gone, as if it wasn’t allowed to touch a thing of such beauty.

Never before had Zon faced such a powerful beast, and noting its strange powers he was sure that the power stone within it was invaluable in more ways than one.

”With the beast’s dead body here, and all the chaos that had occurred, I doubt there will be any beasts that will come near by. The probability of an attack taking place is 2 percent. I will take those chances.”

Holding the crystal, Zon started to move it toward his chest. As he did the strange black suit started to slowly ripple away, showing his bare skin, and after, his bare skin started to open up mechanically.

Zon reached in and pulled out a large cylinder object that was encased in glass and red in colour. As he pulled it out from his body, the glow had disappeared right after he threw it on the floor.

”I can’t believe I would throw something so valuable away. There were wars fought over such a thing, but I’m sure I’m doing the right thing.”

After that, Zon then placed the crystal inside, and from the inside of his chest metallic objects started to move until it attached itself around the crystal. The chest cavity of Zon started to close, and something strange was happening.

”ARGHH!” Zon screamed as he fell to his knees, and the rest of his black suit started to ripple off revealing his naked body. His body was flicking as it would ripple the suit on and off constantly.

”AHHH!” Zon screamed and a pulse exploded out from his body, a yellow coloured substance exploded out in a small five-meter radiance from where he was and his eyes glowed for a moment.

With heavy breathing, his black suit started to recover, rippling back all over his body and covering him from head to toe, up to the top of his neck, only revealing his face to the others.

Finally, the last change could be seen as parts of his suit started to light up. The small circular oval cups over his suit as well as the strange lines that would connect them. All of them lit up with a bright yellow energy.

Zon then stood up and looked at the change on his body.

”The suit’s changed its color… this is the first in a long time, a very long time.”

”Who would have thought, here of all places, that a stronger energy source would be found for the system and suit.”

Zon started to think about how some people had thought the name of the Red Fortis army was because of the red energy that would glow through their suits. Little did people know that the original color of the suits was a dull white color.

The colours represented how strong the energy was being used to power the suits, and so far there had been nothing beyond that of red, and now Zon had discovered it.

”I truly am in your debt, Raze. You have no idea.”
