Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 1077: The Deletersʼ Power

Both Rayna and Dame were quite stunned with what they were hearing. The Noctis Clan was an infamous clan because it was the clan that the Dark Faction founder had founded. They had grown the Dark Faction to what it was today.

However, they had major issues in the past. After the founder disappeared, it appeared as though the members were targeted. They were killed one by one, and with them, their

techniques had disappeared.

Their techniques were powerful, and for those who had lived a long life, and knew a lot about the Dark Faction, they could recognize them the moment they were used. Which was why they had recognized the skills Raze had used as well back then.

It was also a lie that Dame told himself when he had entered the academy, claiming he was a member of the Noctis Clan. It gave him safe passage for a while, explained why he was powerful, no one knew about him, and why he needed to hide his name.

Now to find out that there really was a member of the Noctis Clan. They thought they would have heard of it by now.

”I know what youʼre thinking, it hasnʼt been outright confirmed, but I have seen the moves the Dark Magus has used, and the descriptions from people from all over,” Bubble continued. ”There is no doubt in my mind that this person is from the Noctis Clan.”

”Also, I believe that there, the only warrior that is from Alter, which is a Deleter. With those techniques, she is quite powerful.”

”She?” Rayna asked. ”So this Deleter that uses the skills is a woman?”

”Correct.” Bubble said. ”It seems that some men pay more attention when itʼs a beauty kicking their asses. At least thatʼs what Iʼve heard anyway. There is one more detail that I should mention, and itʼs the fact that this person wears an iron helmet when they fight.” ”It looks quite similar to what the empireʼs soldiers would wear. Metallic all over, with a feather sticking out from the top on either side, and the ridge blocking the nose.”

”So no one has even seen this womanʼs face, and they are already calling her a beauty?” Rayna scoffed.

”Imagination. Some things you can just tell without the need to look further.”

Dame was starting to daydream about the woman in his head, as he stared into the open space, and before he knew it, he was smiling in the air.

”Itʼs been so long because of these damn gauntlets...” Dame muttered.

”What the heck are you thinking about?” Rayna asked as she kicked her brotherʼs shin.

”I was thinking why someone from the Noctis Clan would be helping Alter of all things, and what benefit they would have. Surely they would have had to have been close with the founder and knew a lot of their troubles they were going through,” Dame lied, trying to take the subject in a different direction to his real thoughts.

”That is an answer that perhaps only she will know, but I have seen many things over the years so it doesnʼt surprise me,” Bubble answered. ”Well, apart from one person, the Dark Magus always seems to surprise me.”

”Alright, alright, can we stop talking about the mysterious woman, you said enough about her. Iʼm sure the helmet isnʼt just some fashion accessory either. It has to be an artifact from Alter, so we need to be careful of that. What about the last Deleter then, any information on them?”

Bubble started to think for a while. As he said before, it was hard for him to know what was just strong members, who was part of Alter, and what. He had ideas and threads he could pull at, but he was sorting the information in his head.

That person turned out to be just a wanderer, or that person was part of this group and clan. The tricky thing with Alter was, they also had people that worked for the large clans and were in high positions.

It was the same for Amir who was part of the group in disguise, working as a double agent. Although Bubble didnʼt know this.

”Thereʼs one person that I think fits the bill. A mystery figure that seemingly had come out of nowhere one day. Judging from what I know now, I think they might be an otherworlder, perhaps from the same place as the Dark Magus.”

This fact had pulled in Rayna and Dame more. This was the type of information they were looking for.

”One time, the Light Faction were dealing with a troublesome portal outbreak that had occurred. It wasnʼt the level of beasts that flooded into Pagna, but the amount of beasts. The nearby village had completely been destroyed, and the beasts were moving towards the center of the continent.”

”They were passing village by village, but there was a rumor that one person had stopped them. A man appeared with round glasses and curly hair. They said that he had the power to move mountains, that he also had the ability to create his own army.”

”Create his own army, what does that mean?” Rayna asked.

”I have no idea. From the sound of things, the moving mountains is similar to moving the ground and such. This is why I suspect they are like the Dark Magus with being able to control elements. The other factor is that the individual is said to use a staff.”

”Not the same type that Pagna warriors use, I should add. This staff was rounded at the top and wasnʼt one used in physical combat. Iʼm afraid though, based on this information, I can only assume they were a Deleter.”

”They have only been seen in the Light Faction, and donʼt appear to be linked to any of the other clans. Along with the strange power and what they were able to do, I think that is your last Deleter,” Bubble explained.

It was a lot for Rayna to think about, but she had the information she needed. ”I think itʼs best if we spread the appearance and skills that they can use to everyone around us. If they notice anything, they can alert us,” Rayna said to Dame, who nodded and went to open the door of

the carriage.

”Right, Iʼll make sure the message is out there. This time, we will be ready for them, Rayna, be safe, if our brothers give you any trouble, remember you have a place to come back to. The Neverfall Clan isnʼt your only home.”

Rayna gave a sweet smile as she closed the door, and headed for the Neverfall Clan. She wished for one thing though, that she could have at least seen Raze before she headed to the Clan, there was something she wanted to say to him, but no one knew where he was at the

moment.
