Chapter 524 A Surprise power

??"What are you all doing?" Niang said as he flung his dagger by his side, causing the blood to drop to the floor.

"These people in front of us have taken out most of the Lethal Bite Clan. If we don't deal with them now, then the whole Clan will fall.

"Centuries of history will fade. He's been fighting non-stop; surely he's tired by now. Get them!"

Those standing on stage were shocked that the Elder Connor had just been killed. The oldest member of the clan.

The Clan had already lost so much, and they were struck by what Niang had done, but two things drove them.

One, the fact that the Clan's whole existence was on the line, and the second thing was Niang doing the same thing to them.

They rushed off the stage and quickly went down to the targets below, but they weren't just going to let them attack Raze.

Bargo, although injured, drew his sword and deflected one of the swords. Anna charged forward and grabbed two of them by the wrist, flinging them onto the floor.

Charlotte had even cast a heat spell along with a wind one, causing a vortex of flames to hit one of the warriors in the stomach.

Enough powers and such had already been revealed. The case for hiding the powers was dealt with. Lastly, Harbour had joined the fight, as he gathered his fist and dodged a blow, pulling one of the Elders and hitting them right in the face.

Before they would fall down, he grabbed the Elder again.

"None of you had to go that far; you killed my family, and against one of your own! After everything I did, you guys had no right to decide that!" Harbour shouted.

"Are you saying you wouldn't have done the same?" The elder replied. "If we had found the same type of evidence of Niang, you wouldn't have ordered the same if he had a family."

It was the usual Pagna way. The offense of one person was a whole family's offense. Not just that, but if one were to leave any survivors, then it was always a cause of retaliation.

You had to pull up the whole problem by its roots; otherwise, it would just grow back.

"You lost nothing, while I lost everything!" Harbour shouted, hitting him right in the stomach.

Bargo and Harbour were now back to back, as there were more from the stage, and these were quite skilled warriors unlike the rest that they had come across so far.

"We can handle these; everyone else seems to be holding their own as well. Apart from Ivor," Bargo commented, as Ivor was busy hiding behind the orange-haired girl with magical powers.

He was cheering her on and being a lookout for her, since her senses weren't as sharp, but he wasn't directly getting involved in the fighting himself.

"Do you think that the new guy will be okay?" Harbour asked.

"The leader, he's a middle-stage warrior, and a low one if I'm correct. His strength should be no less than those that had attacked us at the stone manor," Bargo answered. "If that is all he needs to deal with, then that young one will be fine."

"I'm worried though, after everything he had seen us do, and everyone in here, Niang still doesn't look afraid. He might be a weak middle-stage warrior, but I just feel like he has something up his sleeve!" Harbour exclaimed.

Raze looked at Niang's devious smile, and with the sword by his side, he gripped the hilt tight. His Qi was starting to gather and pulsate around the hilt of his weapon.

'If he's a middle-stage warrior, then using just the Dark Edge Sword Arts without the magic should be enough!' Raze thought.

Shifting his feet forward, Raze used the descending step to leap right at his enemy. He had made it from his position almost right up to where Niang was.

"The fourth Dark Edge Sword Arts!"

The Qi was gathered in the hilt of the weapon rather than the blade.

'Let's get this over with, in one hit!' Raze thought.

'The Void Pulse formation!'

Qi pulsated outward from the back of the weapon. The mass amount of power had hit some of the attackers that were dealing with the rest of the group from behind, causing them to fumble.

However, the power of the thrusting attack was dealt with from the front, as Raze's sword had gone right through Niang's chest.

It had pierced right where his heart would be; the sword had broken through, and Niang's face was one of pain.

"With this, the Lethal Bite Clan will fall, and one of the five pillars that hold up the Dark Faction will start to crumble," Raze spoke.

Anna looked over as she twisted another attack and pushed their head into the ground once again.

"Ah right, I forgot, I was meant to interrogate the leader to find out if he was part of the deaths in the other cities as well… it looks like that won't be possible right now," Anna said to herself.

Niang, his face one of pain, soon started to change though to one of smiles.

"You… want to take down the Dark Faction, what grand ambitions you have," Niang managed to speak out.

"Take down," Raze replied to him. "No, that's not exactly right… It seems my enemy has a large force, one that has its eyes everywhere. I don't want to take out the Dark Faction; I want to control it and make it my own."

"Then it seems like our goals are the same, too bad you won't succeed." Niang had a smile on his face, and with his hand, he had reached down quickly to his side.

Raze pulled out the sword from his chest quickly. Something wasn't right; he should have been dead by now, but that wasn't the case.

If stabbing one through the heart wouldn't kill them, then he would just have to go for the head.

As Raze went to strike though, Niang already had his sword in his hand. It was shining brightly, a white glow to it, that hurt his eyes.

Before he knew it, from the tip of the blade, a large beam of energy fired out. It hit Raze instantly, pushing him back, right down to the ground.

His hidden blazer had activated immediately, creating a force field around him; it was blocking the beam of energy from the sword and had eventually stopped.

Niang held the glowing sword in his hand, radiating with power, and as for the wound on his chest. Through the cut cloth, one could see it healing visibly to the eye.

It was as if the wound was never there in the first place.

"You thought you had killed me; did you think your sword, with your strength, could do such a thing?" Niang started to laugh, holding onto the sword.

Harbour, seeing what had occurred, knew he was right, Niang was hiding something.

However, back in the center of the room, Raze was unhurt as well; he was looking to the floor, holding onto his face.

"If it wasn't for the effects of the blazer, that would have been dangerous," Raze looked up, his hand still holding onto his mask.

Half of it had been destroyed by the attack. Letting go and placing his hand by his side, his mask fell onto the floor, revealing his entire face.

"You have a few hidden weapons I see, but you have no idea what I'm capable of," Raze chuckled off his Pagna clothing, and magic covered his body as it was replaced, revealing the finely crafted blazer that had saved him.

"Let's see who has more surprises," Raze smiled.
