Dark Magus Returns



Raze took the small device. It looked like something from Alterian, so he was quite familiar with it. It was something that needed to be inputted into a technological device, beyond the means of what they had in Pagna.

If he went to the Alter base, they might have something he could use, or maybe Amir would have something that could help as well.

The thing was, as Raze held it in his hand, he thought back to when he first arrived in Pagna. He had almost forgotten how he joined Alter in the first place, or the reason for him being in such a place.

'Right, the random deaths that were occurring. That was what brought me to the Lethal Bite Clan. In the end, that matter seemed to be something else, but there were a lot of similarities. It was how I met Anna as well.

'But I almost forgot that there were those after my life, and Safa's as well, and I never figured out the reason behind it.'

Raze was sitting there, looking at the device in his hand. Himmy hadn't found anything, but maybe if he had a look at what was on it himself, he would find something.

After all, there were times, like with the messages left behind by the old Dark Faction founder, that Raze understood when others hadn't.

'When finding out about the groups, I originally thought the Bonum Society was behind it, but it seems they are unrelated to the matter, and Amir didn't know me or Safa.'

'There's a chance it could be Alter. They're a large enough organization to have those doing things that not even the higher-ups know, but it would make no sense to put Himmy on the case then.'

There was a chance the information Himmy found could unlock what the bloody woman was that traveled with him. Or how she came to be attached to the body, and just what the original Raze's body was trying to do.

"Thank you for all of this. I'm guessing this means you will no longer be part of Alter?" Raze asked.

"After they locked me up and tried to kill me, of course not," Himmy said. "Only a fool would go back to them. I've traveled around the continent long enough, and I know how to keep my head down."

"You can stay here if you want," Raze said. "I can't offer ultimate protection over you all the time, and I don't know who is part of Alter and who is not, but it should be quite a safe place."

Himmy was thinking about it for a while, twiddling his fingers, and ready to give an answer until the door burst open, and a female with a red headband entered.

"I'm sorry to disturb you, Raze!" Violet said.

Another one of the ex-students that were now part of Cronker and his special assassination group.

"I have received word that a group from Alter was discovered in the outer area of the academy, near the Perfect Noodle shop," Violet informed.

"Perfect Noodle shop?" Raze repeated, trying to think if he had even seen such a place.

"Wait, they're here already?" Himmy said, surprised. "That was faster than I expected, but maybe we can buy some time, try to delay them, give them some false information, and lead them elsewhere."

Violet started to rapidly blink, as she hadn't quite finished her report.

"Unfortunately, that won't be possible," Violet said. "You see, there has been a confrontation in the noodle shop involving the group from Alter."

"They were able to confirm they were from Alter due to the devices they held." Violet then reached into her inner pocket and pulled out the strange flattened device. Immediately upon seeing this, Himmy stood up from his seat.

"That's an emergency signaler... and it's already been activated."

Violet didn't say more, as it seemed Himmy already knew the dire situation they were in.

"What does that mean?" Raze asked.

"This is what I was worried about," Himmy said. "It was best not to engage with the Alter team and try to find a way to delay them while figuring out another plan of attack."

"That has sent a signal stating that there is nothing the Alter squads sent here can do. They've been found out, and the mission is compromised. Leaving Alter with no choice but to send a Deleter here."

"I don't know how long you have, but soon they'll be here, and they will do as their name states-they will delete the entire academy from existence as if it was never here in the first place."

Although Himmy was startled, Raze was not. Even after hearing how devastating these Deleters could be for a while now-their strength-it sounded like the Divine warriors or like how the Grand Magus were described in Alterian.

Rather than wiping out clans, though, the Grand Magus were said to have the power to eliminate entire countries.

"If you want my advice, it's to take everyone you care about and get away from here," Himmy said. "It's too much of a risk at this growing stage."

"It's okay," Raze said, standing up. "You said before that it was impossible to take on Alter, these Deleters, and the Light Faction at the same time. So this is a perfect situation for us." "This is a chance for us to take on one of these Deleters completely on our own. In my eyes, if Alter is foolish enough to send just one person to take us out, then they're making a big mistake. Let's take this chance and turn it into an opportunity."

Himmy knew he could no longer say more, and who knew-maybe Raze could pull it off with the rest of his powerful group.

That was when, right by Violet's side, another student named Joe appeared, sweat running through his entire body.

"I have an urgent message that has been delivered by Rayna concerning the Demonic Faction!" Joe shouted. "It seems the Behemoth Clan has decided to attack the town of

Flendon!"
