Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 519 To The Middle Stage!

Chapter 519 To The Middle Stage!

"A madman?" Charlotte repeated, not too sure what Raze was getting at. In her missions, she didn't deal with too many Pagna warriors in a confrontational way. She was more on the support side, like when she had arrived at the same city when they had first met Raze. Even the incident that followed after with the deaths of the warriors wasn't something she was accustomed to.

"Hmm, a disguise. Should we have brought disguises as well?" Anna thought as she looked at Raze.

They had now gotten too close to the staircase for the guards not to notice them; a group of four walking was cause for concern to anybody.

In the meantime, Harbour hid behind the others, not wanting to show his face.

"Hey, don't come any closer, state your reason for—"

Before the man could even speak, Raze had dashed forward using one of the descending steps and slashed his Ghost blade right through his throat, killing him in one hit.

He then moved to the other before they could react and stabbed them right through the stomach, holding onto the back of their head and throwing the person to the ground behind them.

Just like that, Raze had killed two of the guards, and he had started his fight against the Lethal Bite Clan.

After dealing with the two of them, he started to make his way up the staircase, continuing to head to the top.

"AHHH he just killed the Lethal Bite Clan guards!" one of the citizens that were in the nearby square shouted.

"What is happening? Is someone attacking the Lethal Bite clan?"

"That's crazy, who would do such a thing, and in broad daylight!"

Raze continued to go up the stairs, and not knowing what else to do, the others had chosen just to follow him, from behind.

Harbour, in particular, was looking at what Raze had done.

'The guards, they were just initial stage warriors. Even with my strength, I could have done the same thing to them, but to do things with such conviction, with no worry and hesitation?' Harbour thought. 'He almost has a stronger resolve than me, the person who asked him to deal with the clan.'

'I have to ready myself; this is only the beginning and things will get a lot worse from here.'

The staircase was a long one, and due to the scene that Raze had caused from below, the guards from the clan that were spread around the city had gotten word of what had happened.

They had arrived at the scene, and could see the suspects moving up the stairs. Immediately, they decided to run after them.

As one of them leapt up, Charlotte gathered both of her hands and thrust them forward. The power of the wind pushed him in the center and caused the man to fall.

His body hit the stairs, and he was falling back down.

One of the warriors had dived forward thrusting the blade, but Anna had hit him by his wrist so hard that he dropped the dagger onto the floor.

Right after that, she kicked the man in the chest. It was a powerful kick that sent the man falling right down to the bottom of the stairs and crashing into the other guard members.

All of these people were easy for them to deal with because they were all initial stage warriors.

As three more were running up, that's when Harbour had turned around to face them, stretching out his hand, his fist covered in Qi, and he was unleashing it, revealing it behind him.

For a moment, the men coming to attack had stopped as they were covered in sweat, and realized who was in front of them.

"Today is the day the Lethal Bite Clan will fall," Harbour announced. "You guards, you only do what you are told. A lot of you have no loyalty towards the clan."

"If you wish to live, then I suggest you turn around, otherwise you will have to face my fist."

Seeing who was in front of them and knowing full well what had occurred, they could only imagine that this was revenge. Harbour was getting revenge on the clan for killing his family and kicking him out of the clan.

"What do we do?" One of the guards asked. "We aren't strong enough to take him out!"

"But he's just a washed-up ex-member, he doesn't even have the strength to punish us anymore! If we get rid of him, surely we will be promoted and rewarded with riches!"

One of the men was convinced by these words and thrust his sword. Harbour decided to meet this head-on as he threw out a fist.

When his fist touched the sword, it started to shatter, breaking, and the fist continued hitting the man right in the skull.

A crack was heard, and the man continued to tumble down the stairs; when he had fallen to the very bottom, his body was unmoving.

He was dead.

"I have told you all my intentions… the Lethal Bite Clan will fall today, and anyone who still claims to be a part of it… will perish," Harbour's words, his great strength, had convinced the guards to back away.

No longer were they giving chase, and they were close to the top of the staircase.

Two guards had run out from the door well, and Raze had swung his sword, hitting their swords, but the great strength of his Qi had pushed them off the sides, causing them to fall as well.

Finally, they had reached the top platform, and they could see the building ahead of them. It was far larger than they thought.

Almost like a castle with multiple winding rooms and different areas.

"Let's split up," Raze suggested. "You, look for Bargo and Ivor, as well as that no-name. They might know more about this whole thing; we need them alive."

"I'm guessing you have a good idea where they might be, so guide them," Raze was speaking to Harbour.

"Wait, you're going to go on your own, but I wanted to help you," Charlotte said.

"Splitting up and leading the people inside will help me," Raze answered. "When you're done, just go to the place where you hear the most noise."

The others wanted to argue, but in the first place, this was Raze's idea to attack the way he was attacking. It was clear he didn't want them with him.

The group nodded, and Harbour had a few words.

"Watch out if you meet Niang; he's a frail old man from the looks of things, but I have no doubt he will have a few tricks up his sleeve.

"If you can, leave him alive so I can see him suffer myself," Harbour said.

"I can't promise," Raze answered.

With that, the three of them went off, trying to go around the side of the large building.

While Raze looked at the large door to the front entrance of the place and continued walking forward.

'With them gone, I can fight with everything I have and use my Dark Magic, and I can absorb as many people as I want… it's time to become a middle-stage warrior.'
