Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 220 God Eyes

Chapter 220 God Eyes

The laughter continued to echo in Raze's mind, but the words that had come out of his mouth could be heard by all. Seeing what happened to Safa, both Liam and Simyon felt like he was a bit heartless in his reaction, only reacting at the tail end, and now he was shouting words.

"Shut up!" Raze shouted again. "Are you taunting me because I couldn't save the people back then? Do you think the same thing is going to happen again?"

Thinking about it, Raze remembered reading a few medical books. What some mages had done in certain situations. He knelt down on his knees, spread on either side of her, and then lifted both of his hands.

Soon, his eyes started to glow a light blue, and then, running up and down his arm, his magic activated, but it wasn't a type of magic the others could see before. Coming off from his clothing were small blue sparks that were going off in different directions.

"Hey, hey, hey!" Liam said, holding onto Simyon. "Is he trying to make sure she's dead or something? Why is he using some strange lightning powers?"

The currents were running up and down his arm, and then he placed it on her chest. The electric pulsated from his hand, shocking Safa's body, concentrated towards the chest, towards her heart.

Her body lifted around an inch off the ground, but there was still nothing.

'I remember reading medical studies. There were those who were able to use their lightning ability to reset the rhythm of the heart if it was abnormal. In rare cases, though, if a person's heart has stopped, chest compressions are the best thing. With the power of the lightning pulse, and compressing at the same time, I will make her heart beat again!'

Raze left both of his hands right on her chest, and the lightning started to pulse into a steady rhythm. The shocks weren't as big as the one from before, but Raze was making his own rhythm to match that of a natural heartbeat.

He had to be careful, use too much magic and it would just damage her heart again. "You have to live, you have to! I didn't give you the name Cromwell so you could die!" Raze said, and Safa's fingers began to twitch.

Raze did one more shock, and then he stopped, as he could hear it, and feel it through her body, it was pulsating again. It was slowly getting into a rhythm, and it came back strong. Opening her eyes, and mouth, a large gasp of air was let into her body, and she started to breathe in and out several times.

Slowly, Raze got off from her, he was covered in sweat over his head as he looked at her and wiped his chin.

'You're not laughing now, are you,' Raze thought to himself.

The two boys had tears of joy as they called out Safa's name, and almost grabbed her, but they realized that she probably needed some space and time, since she had somewhat come back from the dead.

Looking at Safa, Raze was somewhat worried that she would just collapse again at any moment, but she seemed to be going strong, and just before he let go, he made sure that everything was in order.

'Safa... was incredibly lucky,' Raze thought. 'I didn't realize that her Qi would react like that, to a magic circle being made around her heart. Is it some type of self-defense mechanism that Qi has? For it to attack the user?'

'I'm not too sure if this is something that will happen to everyone who has both. The fact that I was able to learn both might be the order of things, but regardless, those who have Qi already can't learn magic.'

'It only worked out for Safa because she was actually dead. With her body dead, her Qi wasn't activating to defend herself. So the magic circle around her heart could form with no interference, and then the fact she was making a light magic core as well. It allowed me to use it to heal her heart.'

'If it was any other type of magic, then her heart wouldn't have healed either. Thankfully, I did everything I could to keep her alive.'

Slowly getting up off the ground, Safa sat gently on the bed. If there was one thing that had come out of this, it was the fact that the guys weren't in a rush to learn magic anytime soon after what had happened.

When she finally looked to have regained a bit of color, Raze walked over to her.

"We had quite a little scare there, but everything is okay now," Raze replied. "It was a success; you managed to learn Light magic."

"Are you sure it's okay?" Simyon asked. "Like if she uses magic, the same thing is not going to happen?"

"It shouldn't," Raze answered. "It was just during the process of making what we call a magic core. It's similar to when you make in the dantian to get to the first stage. For some reason, the two seemed to disturb each other, but now she should be just like me."

"Let me know when you're ready to try."

Just as Raze was about to turn away, Safa reached out and grabbed his hand. She started to nod several times. She was telling him that she was ready now.

"You just came back from the land of the dead, and you already want to do this... very well," Raze answered. "The energy you felt that was inside you, you should be able to remember that feeling. You need to link it up with the energy outside the world of the same type."

"Unlike Qi, which comes from within, mana is the energy controlled on the outside. You can only control so much energy before your mana core is unable to handle any more and will need rest to regenerate.

"What I want you to do is focus on the same energy you felt inside you and capture that energy outside."

The process of what was actually happening and how to control it were two different things, but either way, it was just to help one grasp the concept of using magic, and from the look of things, Safa was grasping it quickly as she felt a glow in her fingers.

She also felt her core reacting as well.

"I won't teach you any spells for now. We don't want to overcomplicate things, but there is a step before even learning spells. The gathering of different affinities of magic. You need to gather certain amounts and in the right areas to use spells.

"For now, what I want you to try and do is gather the magic and direct it towards your eyes."

Breathing in slowly, Safa was doing the same thing again. She took in a deep breath, and soon the glow was appearing around her eyes, and not just that, but the color of her eyes was changing slightly. The outside of the iris, it was turning into a pale, almost white color.

Soon, she could see a number of different things. She could see the light energy in the air, strands being attracted to her. She could also see different colors on the two boys, but then her eyes landed right on Raze, and her whole hand was starting to shake.

"The color of your eyes... you... you have received god eyes," Raze said. He noticed her lips quivering, and even her eyes shaking. If she had god eyes, he realized what she must have been seeing right now.

Safa could see dark energy that was completely surrounding Raze, it was all over him, surrounding the entire side of the room. It was floating about like a spaceless void, and not just that, but the energy felt extremely angry, full of emotion.

Slowly, it was starting to move, and as it did, it was destroying everything around it, the space, the light magic, and every type of energy she could see.

'The god eyes allow the user to see mana in a more pure form. Right now, she can see all of the deaths that I have caused in order to increase my Dark magic attribute.'

Raze had a pretty good idea about what she was seeing right now, but his imagination was wrong, because Safa couldn't just see the lives he had taken in this life, but in his past one as well. Almost a giant shadow was forming over his back.

"Don't look into it too much," Raze commented. "Or you'll be consumed by it."

Out from the shadow, as Raze spoke, almost a giant hand with deadly claws was reaching out at her. Whatever this was, it clearly didn't like her.
