Dark Magus Returns-Novel

Chapter 411 The Mystery Man

The other members of the Crimson Crane had been there the whole time; after all, all of them including Raze himself had come into this dimension through the same portal.

Their reason for hiding in the first place was all because Raze had asked them to. He wanted to talk to Feebie and try to find out more about this Noctis Clan, the original Dark Faction group.

In the end, it looked like he wasn't going to get an answer, and when his life was on the line, Alba had stepped in.

However, the others didn't move. For one, they could see that Alba on her own had the situation under control and didn't need their help.

The other reason was that they needed Feebie and them to be in the right position. If all of them had appeared at once, there was a good chance that Feebie would know she wouldn't be able to win the fight.

And if she decided that her best option was to escape, they would lose the element of surprise in taking down the rest of the Pagna Academy.

Out from the river, standing by the side of Alba was Cronker, and his black clothing was soaking wet.

"Hiding in the river wasn't the best idea," Cronker commented.

"I told you so," Alba replied.

"Yes, but it was the most unexpected place," Cronker answered with his face turning slightly red, luckily hidden behind his mask.

The rest of the Crimson Crane members had practically formed a circle around Feebie. It wasn't a complete circle, but there was enough distance between each one of them to cover the area in case of an escape.

"Hey, did you hear what they said?" Froma commented, holding out her bow.

"Yeah, she's the clan head, and she was planning on killing a student," Llily replied. "Honestly, I don't really know what's going on here from what we heard, but it's clear the Dark Magus is in trouble."

They were all listening in on the conversation Raze had. What had become a big surprise to them was the fact that Raze was a student.

The legendary Dark Magus that was being sought after by the biggest clans in the Demonic Faction was just a student at an academy.

They were imagining the look on the Clan Head's faces when they found that out.

Still, they assumed the Dark Magus must have done something for it all to play out like this.

"Haha, haha!" Feebie started to laugh out loud, placing her hand on her face. "This has to be all a dream, the members of the Lethal Bite Clan dealt with, the whole of the Crimson Crane Clan now here in front of me, to deal with this situation.

"It has to be a dream."

"Is… she okay?" Violet asked, staying close to Dame and the others down below.

"I think she's having a breakdown," Dame answered. "The fact that Royo, her right-hand man was defeated, although the clan is still large in number, now with the way it is, it will never be the same again."

"The Lethal Bite Clan has lost a lot of power, all for what, because she was chasing revenge on a single student, and that student was a no-name with no clan."

"If it was any other situation, or going up against one of the other clans, she could accept it, and expect it, but this situation, it was something she never expected to happen, something she was confident in and now it resulted in this. Accepting defeat, when not expected and to someone who has never experienced it, is a hard thing to do."

Feebie, seeing the situation as it was, was coming to a small realization and felt like she needed to get out of there.

She saw an empty spot to her right and ran full force ahead. In doing so, though, Lilly, the spear user, had dived in front and twirled it in the air before slamming it down in the sand, pushing a large gust of wind toward her.

"I am the Lethal Bite Clan Head, did you think I was so weak that I can't take care of one person!" Feebie shouted.

Charging forward though, an arrow came from one of the rooftops. She sensed its power and used her fist to spin and knock the arrow away.

At the same time, though, Lilly had charged forward and thrust the spear, hitting her right in the stomach.

It had shoved her right back, her feet skidding through the sand until she was back in the position she was before. It had hurt, but not as hard as the hit she had gotten from Alba.

Looking up at the rooftop, she could see the bow and arrow user who had struck her.

"I think you might have forgotten something, we are the Crimson Crane, this is our entire clan," Alba stated. "As you said, our clan is small, but we are stronger than your typical clan when working together and we cover each other's backs."

"Escape is impossible, I think you should make this less tiring for ourselves and just give up."

However, Feebie refused to give up, and jumping from her position, she decided to head in another direction this time.

It was Tilon who was present, and he held up his shield, blocking the two large fists that had hit him.

It took everything just to block the attack, and he could even feel slight pain. However, Kizer, who was close by, had quickly come from the side and struck her.

She had blocked with her hands, but her body went flying again, before she had even crashed into a building, this time, Elvlin with her glaive, lifted it up and struck her right in the stomach, sending her to the ground.

'This fight, it's extremely different from the Light Faction Elder,' Raze thought. 'I didn't notice it back then, but the Crimson Crane are all really strong warriors.

'The reason they struggled was because they were dealing with the Elder's Lightning magic, which they didn't understand.

'Magic plus Pagna skills make the whole Pagna warrior stage thing unreliable but here it's quite accurate. Many middle stage warriors against a single one.

'Although I wonder how they would fare if they were to go up against the Neverfall Clan Head.'Googlᴇ search novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.nᴇt

The image in Raze's mind still hadn't disappeared from what Belil was able to do. The entire city practically being blown away.

It was quite likely that Murkel, the Dark Faction Academy Principal, would be in the same position as well.

The group by the side continued to watch Feebie struggle; she was fighting desperately, and they were also seeing the Crimson Crane use a number of unique and interesting skills.

Skills and techniques they hadn't seen before. Since they had mostly been limited to Dark Faction and Clan skills, it was the first time they were witnessing so many open Wanderer skills that could be picked up.

They were learning a lot just from watching the fight go on, but there was one person in particular that was learning more than the others, as he was taking in all of the information.

"You're catching all of this, right?" Liam asked.

[Affirmative, I am analyzing all of the techniques and skills being used and will store it in your database. Lesser versions of the skills will be made that are suited to your body.]

"Thank you," Liam replied.

"Did you say something?" Simyon commented.

"Ah, just thanking us for being able to see all of this, it's amazing to see what we might become in the future."
