Chapter 438 A Dark Mage
Chapter 438 A Dark Mage
He had been avoiding strike after strike that were coming his way, and when the Dark Magus was hit, a panic was settling in him. It was more than just a task that had been given to him by his leader, but he felt like he had a responsibility.
And then, crazy occurrences had started, people dying left and right and himself being pushed. There was a lot that had been playing on his mind, all up till this point, where Raze\'s eyes were now open.
"Your eyes." Were some of the first words that had come out of Raze\'s mouth, as he lifted his upper body off the ground. "They\'re watery, it seems like you\'ve been through a lot."
Raze could remember what had happened just before, his head and mind were clear. He had passed out. After using the Cursed Qi pill and then several Qi pills after that, his mind couldn\'t take it anymore to the point it had completely given out on him.
He remembered summoning the Crimson Crane, so it wasn\'t such a surprise that he could see Reno, but why were his eyes watery?
That was an answer that even Reno couldn\'t quite answer himself. Maybe it was everything the group were going through, or the responsibility he had, which was now lifted off his shoulders.
Besides, even if the Dark Magus was awake, what could he do? After all, he was just one person. A person who could do the same things as the others, and in Reno\'s mind, he couldn\'t get out the worry that Alba had.
What if the Dark Magus was just a normal person compared to all of these that were different to them, someone who was on the run. The fact was, now that Raze was awake, it wouldn\'t change much.
Standing up from where he was, Raze was looking at the situation, trying to observe as much of it as he could.
\'The Crimson Crane, they are fighting with mages, and the Vice-principal is here as well, it looks like he\'s been hurt.\' Raze\'s eyes were set on the man standing next to him and the glow coming off his body.
He was surprised to see something like that, and knew instantly what it was as well.
\'The mage, they\'ve performed a breakthrough. Which means they are quite skilled.\'
With everything the way it was, and him trying to analyze everything, he had come to a conclusion.
\'Things have become a lot worse than I ever expected. The mages are here, but I don\'t seem to be their target. The one thing that I know for sure, is that the Crimson Crane must have done a good job protecting me from all of this.\'
Looking at the mages as well, Raze was familiar with the large golden I that was on their hoods and clothing. It made him tense up for a few moments but he thought there was something more important at hand.
"You have protected me and all of the Crimson Crane has protected me well." Raze stated.
Reno started to wipe his tears away. He never realized before, but for some reason the Dark Magus\' words right now, they were so soothing to him, and were quite calming. A confidence was building up in him.
He wanted to mention about the strange ghost that had protected him but thought it wasn\'t the right time for now as he used his sleeve to continue wiping his tears.
"We tried… but now we\'re in this situation. I\'m sorry, I need to do my best to help them." Reno answered, as he started to gather his own Qi.
He had been out of the fight for a long time.
"It\'s okay." Raze said. "I owe you a favor, and I always pay back my favors. I\'ll get rid of them, I\'ll get rid of them all for you."
Some of the mages that were close by hadn\'t moved in. They were still a little worried after noticing what had happened before, but they couldn\'t help but laugh at the outlandish claim this mysterious white-haired man had made.
"You get rid of us all, good luck with that!" The mage held out his hand, and fired out a quick and sharp fire spell. It left and the flame came directly at Raze.
Seeing this, Raze lifted his hand, and Dark Magic started to swirl into the palm of his hand. With his hand, he caught the fireball of magic. Slowly the darkness was eating at the fireball and when Raze clenched his hand into a fist the fireball had completely disappeared just like that.
The mages seeing what had just happened, were looking at each other in disbelief, they were stunned and shocked.
They had frozen in place and their skin was turning slightly paler.
\'What\'s going on?\' Alba thought, as she took a step back from the squad leader she had been going against. \'Why are they acting that way. Sure he stopped their spell, but many of us can, and surely that\'s something that they can do as well.\'
That\'s when she heard a word coming off from the squad leader in front of her.
"That\'s… Dark Magic, he knows Dark Magic."
To Alba, and the rest of the Crimson Crane they just saw everything in one boat, as all types of magic and had no clue why seeing someone use Dark Magic was so surprising.
Lifting his hand up, Raze then pointed it toward one of the mages.
"Dark Pulse!"
A beam of energy went out, slicing right through its head. The mage\'s body fell to the floor dead on the ground.
"I guess this is your first time, fighting against a Dark Mage, right?" Raze said.
