Chapter 85: In the Darkness
" So loud, do those fools leave some monsters in this Dungeon or something? "
" I thought they said that the monsters in this Territory Dungeon are dead? "
" Guess, they were wrong... "
" Useless, little insects. " the person says.
" Am I right, Trazer? " he says to Richard Trazer.
" Of course, my lord... "
" After all, the men we hired are simply from the Hunter Guilds that we managed to take into our cause, my lord. "
" So of course, they must be not as powerful as what you expect from them. " Richard explains which made the lord sigh.
" *Sigh* Dammit I told you to just hire the Upper-Rank echelon Hunters, not like those disposable ones. "
" Just look at them, they're probably dead in just hours. " he says as he had low hopes for his 'hired men.'
" But what about Doom, he's outside, isn't he? your Harbinger of Wreckoning? " Richard asks.
" Oh yes, he's there, thank goodness... "
" No wonder, some of those disposable ones somewhat survive," he says to Richard as he then closes his eyes while still covering himself in the dark.
" *sigh* "

" It's so nice to meet both of you here," he says as he looks behind him.
" Lord? " Richard asks.
" Behind you. " a voice says, as it then rushes out using <Sonic Step> and punches Investigator Richard off, immediately.
" No... way, You... " Richard suddenly felt numb after the damage and after he sees the one who did this to him.
" Yep, it's me... "
" Stay silent for me please and don't even try to tell Franklin if you wake up again. " Duncan orders him as Richard then falls down.
" You really feared Frank Spike, so much didn't you? " he says to Duncan, asking him if Franklin Spike really scares him so much.
" Well, knowing him, he would be the one who causes much trouble if he fights me. "
" But thankfully..., " Duncan says as from above comes fire raining down towards the person covered in Darkness.
" I'm not alone, this time. " Duncan says as Agniz comes down, slashes down using her fiery blade as she fiery slashes the person in dark.
" [Agni Magic: Agni Burst]!!! " she slashes down her fire, imbued in her [Scarlett Bloodburn Sword].
" How's that!? "
" Do you like the fire that I give you right now!? "
" I've spent so much honing this technique after you mistakenly reveal yourself back then. "
" You should've kept your existence secret, or else I will find you and burn you. "
" You who had been corrupting the Warblade Guild beyond the dark! "
" Now die! " Agniz says as her sword sets up the fiery blaze of her burning blood, for the scarlet menace is now preparing to cut the man's body both sliced and fried while Duncan watches her and immediately uses his Magic Spell to help her do the work more.
< Endless Swirl, Tornado Typhoon >
"( I hope this Tornado would prevent him from running away during his burning or even let him use his Dark Magic, in the process. )"
"( Using my Tornado's highspeed wind flow, I calculated that the wind will contain Agniz's fire, constantly making it whirlwind around and cook that asshole inside it. )" Duncan thinks as he knew that by theory, this should work.
"( Let's test the theory, shall we? )" Duncan says as he combines his Tornado Typhoon with Agniz's fiery burst, combining the magic into a.
[ Magic Combination: Tornado Toaster ]
" To think I would find you this very day, to think that I will find who has been destroying our guild for many years! " Agniz laughs for she can feel her blood boiling in joy.
" This is such a great ecstasy, for no joy could sate all of my stress since then during Ardun's rule. "
" All of those years of disgrace that he brought to our Guild, insulting our guild's very existence as the Guildmaster. "
" Now, as the new Guildmaster of the Warblade Guild, I vow that on this day, I will burn away those who try to intervene with our guild's activities! "
" Just like now! " Agniz shouts in extreme happiness.
" I see, how very interesting of you... " the man says as he is still unsliced somehow.
Seeing that, both Agniz and Duncan were shocked as they never thought that the man will survive the toasting fire tornado they made.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm" Dammit, Agniz get out of there! " Duncan shouts as he can see the mane drawing his magic out from his left hand, the magic known to be the most ancient magic one couldn't have in modern times, the Dark Magic.
" [Dark Magic, Tenebris Virga] " the man then shoots at Agniz, giving a hole in her left waist as she dodged it mid-air.
" Agniz! " Duncan shouts as he then stops his spell, turning down the Tornado Toaster away in order to catch Agniz using his Sonic Step.
" Oh my, it seems you're still as fast as you were in the past, aren't you my friend? " he says as Duncan leaps before him and saves Agniz whose left waist has been holed by the man.
"( Shit, even the Health Potion inside my <Dimensional Pouch> could not heal this wound. )"
"( Dammit, we're too full on ourselves. )" Duncan says as he then decides to take the offensive.
[ Air Fang Bullet ]
[ Air Fang Barrier ]
Using the two magic, Duncan tries to make the man busy while he deals with the wounded Agniz.
" Dammit, even I didn't expect him to survive this... "
" I thought that giving him no openings would make us succeed in killing him, for good. "
" But instead, it cost us greater than anticipated. " Duncan says as he still needs Agniz's fire while dealing with the man.
" Dammit, my wind magic won't work against his darkness. "
" If I want to make the darkness disappear, I need some light to disperse it which could only be found in some elemental magic that has a light inside it, such as thunder and fire. " Duncan says he then decides to just give the Health Potion from his <Dimensional Pouch> in order to heal Agniz despite half of her waist being destroyed just in one attack.
" Oh. how very unfortunate Duncan. "
" You must be thinking that with this new ally of yours, you could correct your last mistake of fighting back then, didn't you? "
" Coming to me alone which made you fail miserably. "
" Shut up! "
" [Air Slash]!!!! " Duncan draws it out immediately in his peak of anger.
