Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 868: The Whole Deleters

For a moment, Scar was allowing his body to freely flow through the air. He had already switched out his sniper rifle, but right now in his hands, there was nothing.

As he let the wind drag onto his body, he was thinking of the situation he was in.

'In all my time since I have been in Pagna, I've never met such a person,' Scar thought. 'To catch a sniper bullet with just their fingers. Even the top Pagna warriors would struggle with that.'

'A mage would have to cast some pretty big fancy spell to get rid of it, but the man in front of me hasn't even moved. Just what is this person?'

Scar started to think back to all of the missions he had been given even before he had become a Deleter, trying to think if there was ever anyone he had come across like this.

No one had come to mind, at least not on his missions, but he did remember seeing one person.

At one point, Henio had called a meeting between the Deleters. All five of them had gathered in a single room in front of the head of Alter.

The strongest forces that Alter had were gathered in one room. The room was similar to the one Scar had his assessment in; it was vast in size but mostly empty.

Apart from what looked like a giant clock's mechanism in the back, a swinging pendulum going side to side.

Out of those in the room, Scar recognized Garlock from his assessment. The longest-serving Deleter and also the first to obtain the title and the role.

As for the others, he might have caught their faces now and again, but he didn't know them by name. Other than Garlock, most of the Deleters were secretive.

It seemed to come with the job.

"Since we have recently had a new member join the team, I would like you all to introduce yourselves. Although it is rare for more than one Deleter to be called on a task, there is no doubt in my mind that there may come a situation where all of you will need to work together, so please go ahead."

The first person to step forward was a man with round glasses and curly hair that stuck up on his head. There was the image of the person being somewhat of a mad scientist type.

If anything, out of all of them, Scar felt like they were the least intimidating.

"My name is Kush, I am from Alterian, but unlike these, I'm not a mage. I'm a researcher, but rather than looking into the field of magic, I used to look into beast crystals and other dimensions," Kush said as he went back.

Although Kush didn't look intimidating, Scar was sure that he was strong. After all, all Deleters needed a certain level of power to become one.

The next to step up was the large mage Garlock, with his neatly swept-back hair and round shoulders. He didn't exactly give off the image of a mage, but he was certainly one.

"The First Deleter of Alter, I was close to also being one of the founding members of Alter along with Henio. If any of you have any issues with your mission or think they will bring you trouble, then feel free to come to me," Garlock said.

"We can do that?" Scar whispered.

"Garlock is quite accommodating when it comes to these things," the only female Deleter in the room said, standing next to him. "There come times when others are more suited for certain missions.

"The Programmers don't really know how to utilize the Deleters well. They only know what's best to get the goal sorted. So sometimes it's best for us to decide amongst each other who will be best for big missions."

In the middle of the two talking to one another, another of the individuals walked forward. Their footsteps were heavy as if their boots weighed a ton each.

The man had dark pupils, and his black hair was swept back, reaching his neck. Out of all those there, it was this man that looked the most menacing.

"I am known as Red. I am from the world of Tronzo," Red declared.

"Tronzo? I've never heard of an otherworlder from there," Scar said.

"It's not a surprise," Red replied, hearing Scar despite them being a distance away and him only speaking a whisper. "There is only one in the squads that I know of that is from the same world as me."

"And they aren't even aware that I am here either. I am a member of the Red Fortis Army. "As a newcomer, I have a piece of advice for you. If you ever come across another one from Tronzo, it would be best if you let me handle the task."

Scar was a bit taken aback by the sudden request. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

"Is it because you are from the same world, that you wish to know about them?" Scar said, as that was quite understandable.

However, Red laughed as he walked back to his position.

"It's not that. I read your file; I know your skill set and how you fight. If you were ever to meet someone from Tronzo, especially someone from the Red Fortis Army, you would have a difficult time facing them."

"I'm not saying you're weak, it's just not a good match-up."

Scar smiled back at Red, but he was clenching his jaw on the inside. He felt offended.

'It must be because I'm the new Deleter he thinks so little of me. Of course, he has no idea what I've done or what I'm capable of. No one would think someone from my world could take on mages either, and before I was even given artifacts from this world, I was able to deal with

them.'

'This guy is just too big-headed, thinking about those from his world.'

Finally, it was time for the last Deleter to walk forward. Judging by the thin piece of flowy cloth she was wearing, Scar could already guess that she was a Pagna warrior.

There were quite a few in the group of Alter, but he found it surprising that there would be a Deleter that was one. After all, Deleters were those with the power to eliminate entire clans, even those at the very top.

So if she was a Pagna warrior, shouldn't she have been a well-known one?

"My name is Shay!" the woman said, placing her fist into the palm of her hand and giving a bow to the others. "I am a Pagna warrior, and the last remaining person from the Noctis Clan."
