Chapter 205 Not Dying Today
If he was dead anyway, then what use would it be to follow Alter\'s rules to survive? After pushing the two away, one with his swordsmanship and the other with his wind magic, Raze had the time to summon his statue. With it in his hand, he used Dark magic, and dropping it to the ground, it started to grow.
"What is that, did he just summon a statue?" one of the Light Faction warriors said. They were clearly confused, and they were even more startled when they saw it moving.
It charged forward toward one of them, and in doing so, it swung its sword from above. It hit the Light Faction warrior, whose knees nearly buckled. Drawing the sword away, it acted again and slammed its heavy fist on top of its head, sending it to the ground.
This distraction finally gave Raze a chance to use four of the Descending Steps in succession as he went right at the third warrior and swung his sword. With the added strength of the buildt-up of Qi, the Devil\'s swordsmanship strike, and Raze\'s wind magic, it managed to break through, shattering the sword and cutting him right across the chest.
"As I thought, the statue is incredibly strong," Raze thought, looking at it. "It has the blood of all five of the disciples. Ricktor was a third-stage warrior while the rest were at the second stage. With all of them combined together, that statue might be a stage 4 or 5 Pagna warrior, and it has the techniques from all the clans, making it extremely versatile."
With Raze having successfully defeated the two who were dealing with him, he managed to catch the tail end of the fight between two middle-stage warriors. Just from a glance, he knew that his getting directly involved was a bad idea, but looking down at the two injured Light Faction warriors something did cross his mind.
What he was even more surprised about, though, was the large difference between the two. It looked as if Reno was unable to do anything at all.
When Reno was struck back, the statue had caught him, and since Raze needed his ally\'s help, he did what he could in throwing him a pill.
"DM... these are the Dark Magus\' pills that Alba was trying to find. This one looks different from the one that he gave me before. Why does he have so many of these pills? Nothing is making sense."
Regardless, Reno decided to take the pill right there and then. In doing so, he felt an instant rise in his energy, and not just that, but something else was changing in him as well. He moved forward, his footsteps, everything about him, was moving slightly faster compared to before.
When Nabi went to swing the sword down, Reno thrust both of his fists forward in an open palm. Some of his Qi had restored thanks to the pill, but it wasn\'t the only effect. His techniques that would require more Qi, he was able to use them faster than before.
Jumping quickly from the side, Reno delivered a punch, and rather than blocking it with the sword like Nabi had done this entire time, he avoided it by moving his head to the side instead.
\'How can a person improve so much compared to before? He wasn\'t hiding his strength, was he? What is going on?\' Nabi thought.
Nonetheless, he was able to shift to the side and thrust his sword right at Reno. Gathering his Qi to the sword strike, he blocked the attack, and was sent skidding to the side. The powerful Qi still delivered a strong blow, causing him to cough out blood.
"I can move my Qi and my techniques a lot quicker thanks to that pill. The effect of it was more than I thought as well. This Dark Magus person is amazing, but I don\'t think it will be enough."
Reno just needed a few moments to recover as he could see that Nabi was coming after him. But thankfully, a particular person, or thing, stood in his way, as it struck with his fists, a destructive explosive force came out.
Nabi swung his sword in an upward motion, like the curve of the moon, and created a wall of Qi, blocking the strike.
"A doll?" Nabi strangely thought, looking at the stone statue.
However, the doll wouldn\'t be strong enough to defeat him, which was why he was ready to strike again. That was until a strong force could be felt coming from behind. The back of his neck was tingling.
Turning, he could see three lines of strikes heading his way tearing up the ground.
Nabi swung his sword to deflect all three of them.
As he did, the energy dispersed into the air, but powerful shockwaves went off one after the other, when his sword clashed against the strikes. When he looked in the direction of where the attack had come from, he could see it was from the strange hooded man.
Raze was standing there, and he had drawn his ghost sword from his back. The weapon was now slightly glowing red after using his moves.
"This sword... it really does draw more power when Demonic Qi is being used in it."
The moment Raze tried to use a Demonic technique along with the ghost blade, he could feel it being reinforced with a strange power. The sword itself started to glow slightly red as well.
However, as for the reason why he had taken a while to attack, that was because he had decided to do everything he could to give them the chance to win the fight.
On the ground next to Raze, there were two shriveled-up bodies that were completely dried up like prunes.
"Don\'t tell me, did he use the extraction technique on those from the Light Faction?" Reno noticed.
That was exactly what Raze had done. This was a life and death situation, and he could tell with the force of the strikes the Light Faction members were using that they had attempted to kill him. So he needed to gather as much power as he could in this situation.
After drawing their energy, he could feel his Qi rising. With the extra power received from the Light Faction warriors, the new ghost blade, along with using his magic, Raze was able to produce large wind strikes full of power.
"I\'m seriously completely confused with this guy," Reno thought. "I thought he was an alchemist, but he knows nothing about alchemy. I thought he was a martial artist, and then he says he\'s only a stage 2 Pagna warrior.
"So how, how is he able to produce something like Qi strikes out of his body? Is he actually a master martial artist?"
There was something else as well. When using the extraction technique on the Light Faction members, when they had finally passed, Raze had received quite the increase in a certain attribute.
[Dark attribute: 40 >>>> 50]
Although Wind magic was useful for attacking from far away and sharpening one\'s sword, the most destructive type of magic and the one Raze was most powerful in was Dark magic.
Soon, the ghost blade started to change, as Dark magic surrounded the outside of the weapon, giving it a faint dark glow.
"I… won\'t die here." Raze said.
Using the opportunity, Reno quickly jumped away again and this time moved closer to the hooded figure and so did the statue next to him.
\'These guy his attack\'s aren\'t strong but there\'s something about him.\' Reno thought.
From his side, he could see Raze move and quickly he had thrown out a red pill. Catching it, he could see the marking of DM again and this time he took it in immediately.
\'With this many pill\'s I think I\'ve figured out who you are?\' Reno inwardly smiled.
At that moment, Raze pulled out another green Qi pill and consumed it himself, confirming Reno\'s suspicions.
\'You are him! you are the Dark Magus!\'
