Chapter 748 Raze's Last Gamble
Chapter 748 Raze\'s Last Gamble
\'What is it?\' Zon thought. \'What is it that you are still hiding that you think can change the outcome of this entire fight?\'
Murkel was extremely confident. So far, the only person that seemed to have enough strength to take him on, the mysterious student in front of him, seemed to be out of options, which meant he had won this fight.
"You were a good test, young one. I thought that I might have needed people with me to go against the other factions, but your strength has given me confidence that I can take on the rest of the factions," Murkel claimed.
Beatrix looked over to Ricar when he said those words. She was wondering if he was going to step in. Although what this Raze person had shown was impressive, it was hard to say if it was any less than what Ricar could perform or do.
However, that was also the issue. Maybe she would put the two of them at a similar level, and they saw the results of that already. They needed someone much stronger than that. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"We can\'t get involved," Ricar replied. "The moment this fight is over, the moment that young student\'s life is taken away, we need to leave this place. We will gather all of the Light Faction and inform them of what has happened, and prepare a full-on assault."
"Will we be able to run away?" Hannah asked.
It was hard to tell with the personality they had seen with Murkel so far. Whether he was someone that would hunt and chase down every single person who was in the area, who had witnessed what had occurred, or if he was so confident in his strength that someday he was going to take over all of the Light Factions that he didn\'t mind survivors getting away.
"Look around us," Ricar commented. "The faces of those are all allies of this individual named Raze. As soon as his life is lost, it appears that they are ready to jump in and attempt to take this person down, no matter what."
Hannah looked around and knew he was right. Those from the Demonic Faction, those that were hybrids, the students in the Dark Faction, and the Crimson Crane that summoned.
She started to wonder what this person below had done for all of them, to get them all willing to sacrifice their lives like that, for just one person.
Back at the arena, Raze lifted up his hands, and a Dark Pulse came shooting out from one palm. It hit Murkel in the shoulder, disintegrating and barely even moving his body slightly.

Back at the arena, Raze lifted up his hands, and a Dark Pulse came shooting out from one palm. It hit Murkel in the shoulder, disintegrating and barely even moving his body slightly.
"What was the point of even doing that?" Murkel asked as he started to step forward. Walking forward, another Dark Pulse went off, hitting the top of his forehead cleanly, but once again, it dispersed, not doing anything to his body.
"I\'ve got good aim," Raze said. "If that attack was stronger, you would be dead by now." Raze had a large smile on his face; he was almost laughing.
"I guess this is the reaction of some," Murkel said, continuing to walk calmly forward toward Raze. "The reaction of those who know that their life is going to be at a loss."
Raze smirked at the comment, but it wasn\'t for reasons that some might think. Those words, he remembered saying to others once, being in a similar position. Naturally, with his infamy as the Dark Magus, many were after his life.
Some working for the Grand Magus, others looking for fame, and those just wishing for money or revenge. Because his path was a brutal one, those that perhaps shouldn\'t have gotten hurt, had been hurt along the way.
"I was just getting some frustration out of me," Raze answered. "I have to admit it\'s really annoying that I was unable to beat you, even though I used up everything I had."
"What a talented individual," Murkel said, his face starting to change. The red skin was folding away, and it was almost as if his real human face was breaking through the skin.
"You were incredibly skilled, to even show an ounce of talent that Bofan could achieve, and on top of that what you were able to do now, and at the academy at your age. Finally, to admit when you have lost. I am saddened that I have to be the one that has to stunt your growth. If I was you, I would be frustrated as well, never knowing what I could have become."
Raze then lifted his head up, looking directly at Murkel, the pain running through his body was starting to come to an end, the effects of the cursed Qi pill were coming to an end.
"I think you have it wrong," Raze replied. "Firstly, I am not a child, secondly, I\'m not upset because of that. I\'m upset because losing to you means that I\'m not ready to face them, and I\'m a little impatient when it comes to these things."
"Them?" Murkel said, confused. Because from this person\'s words it was almost as if he was saying that there were those that were even stronger than him that this young student was after, or maybe even stronger, but that would be impossible.
"Your words are those of a person that is truly delusional," Murkel said.
"Right, you find it hard to imagine that in this world there is anyone greater than you, but that\'s not the case at all, and I will show you," Raze said as he placed both of his hands together and his Dark magic was forming again. "I am a person that doesn\'t usually take risks, but it doesn\'t mean I never take risks."
"After all, I am who I am today because of the risks I took, and right now, I will take another risk."
As Raze pulled his hands away, in one hand he held what looked like a large cup; it was a chalice.
In the arena, Alba had a smile on her face.
"It\'s as I thought, if it works, this whole fight can be turned around."
