Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 605 The Necroshade Clan

Chapter 605 The Necroshade Clan

??No matter how hard Raze tried to think, he couldn't remember the name Necroshade or the clan itself. Most likely, it was perhaps a name that he had just heard in passing.

"If I can't remember much about them, then it can't be too important, but it's still a clan at the end of the day."

"So you've decided to go with the easiest option, that's a bit boring if you ask me," Kizer commented.

"Easy option is chosen because we need to figure out what's best for Raze, the people, and the entire clan," Fixteen added.

"Wait a second, are Rayna and Fixteen now part of the clan?" Lily asked, suddenly realizing. "I mean, if Raze is part of the clan, and Rayna is now his wife, and these two were abandoned by the Neverfall Clan, have they joined us?"

"We weren't abandoned," Fixteen quickly added. "And... for me, I wouldn't say we are part of the clan. At the moment, we both have similar interests, and that is Raze."

"My loyalty is with Dame, the young master from the Neverfall Clan, who is working with the Dark Magus."

"It's the same for me," Rayna added. "If the clan were to ask me to do something, then I wouldn't comply. Unless it was to help out with Raze, but since we are all involved in this town, our interests just cross paths."

There felt like there was a bit of tension between groups when that was said; even Anna was standing on the side of Rayna.

It made Alba realize something in that moment as well. There were those that were supporting the Dark Magus and Raze, and then the Crimson Crane; they weren't one large group.

"Can we continue with this meeting then and explain why we are going after the Necroshade Clan?" Fixteen said.

He took the silence as a yes and continued.

"Due to the infamy of the Crimson Crane Clan now having reached its peak, if we send a challenge to nearly any one of the other clans, none of them are going to accept a duel; they will simply just refuse."

"So the only option we have is to turn up to the Clan's base and demand a duel to take place. If it doesn't work out, then we only have one choice."

Picking up a painting brush from the table, Fixteen clenched his hand, snapping the brush and revealing its stringly fibers.

"Did you have to break the poor brush?" Lily asked. "We understood your point already." She then let out a sigh.

As well as all of the other members, it felt like after just getting out of one war, they were going into another. Raze also had just defeated those in the Lethal Bite Clan, and now they wanted them to fight again.

"In conclusion, the Necroshade Clan is the weakest of all clans, so with our power, it should be a walk in the park, and I suggested that we only bring a few members; otherwise, they might think we are going to do that from the get-go."

With all that done, four people were selected to head to the Necroshade Clan, and they were traveling by carriage. Inside the carriage itself were Raze, Rayna, and Anna sitting on one side.

Fixteen actually wanted Anna to stay as she was extremely helpful in the building process; she could analyze situations, structures, and had given them advice on how to craft better materials.

Fixteen thought of her as a genius with a giant pool of knowledge, but she insisted that no matter what, she needed to stay by Raze's side.

Then, opposite him, there was Alba, who had brought along Lily, one of the Crimson Crane members who had been against them getting so heavily involved with the Dark Magus.

"I…" Raze spoke and then cleared his throat. "I'm starting to realize that… I'm the only guy here."

"Right, you do seem to have some type of attraction to bring a lot of females to your side," Alba chuckled.

"I'm Raze's wife, it only makes sense, and I'm coming as a representative of the Demonic Faction and the Town of Flendon."

"And I'm the leader of the Crimson Crane, so I had to come," Alba said as well.

As for the other two, they really didn't need to be there. Raze thought, judging from the information he had gathered from Fixteen, if trouble did occur, he could perhaps take care of the place himself. At least he believed he now had the strength to.

Approaching the town, it was more standard looking of the Demonic Faction Clans they had been to.

It was a normal city built in a square formation with high walls to make it harder for invaders to attack. The city had gates where people would enter and exit from, with the gates down 90 percent of the time.

As for the outside walls, they could see standard guards hired from the city, and also many Clan members that were standing clear on the outside in cloth rather than armor, protecting the city.

When the carriage appeared, guards had first approached the carriage.

"We are here on Pagna warrior business; could you please inform the Necroshade Clan that the Crimson Crane Clan has come to visit."

The guard blushed as he looked at Rayna's pretty face and quickly went to inform the men that were part of the Necroshade Clan.

"Oh, so you're part of the Crimson Crane now when it's convenient for you?" Alba commented as she got out of the carriage along with the rest of them.

Raze was starting to slap his forehead with his hand. There was constant bickering between all of the women in the carriage on the way there, including Anna, who just seemed to want to have an argument with everyone.

And it didn't stop now.

"I'm just speaking for simplicity's sake," Rayna added. "Let's not overcomplicate the situation right now, shall we?"

Two guards dressed in dark purple garments came over. These were the members of the Necroshade Clan.

"We have been informed to turn away anyone who comes to our doors! We are not accepting any visitors due to our big journey that will be taking place tomorrow!" The man spoke in a firm voice of confidence.

The Necroshade Clan were a rising clan within the Demonic Faction and had gained great prestige with one of their members taking part in the martial arts tournament.

lights??v?l ??m "Did you inform them who had come to visit?" Alba said, asking again. "I'm sure if we were from the Neverfall Clan, Lost, or Behemoth Clan, your leaders would have come out here rather than giving this type of response."

"It looks like your clan name has done us no favors in the end," Rayna stated.

"This is an important matter; can you at least inform your clan master that the leader of the Crimson Crane has come here herself?" Alba said, placing her hand on her chest and was even standing in a somewhat seductive pose, revealing more of the skin on her leg toward her upper thigh.

The man stared at it for a moment but then shook his head.

"No matter who you are, we will not allow any warriors that aren't from the Necroshade Clan to enter our doors, especially a filthy wander clan that hasn't been recognized by many of the Demonic Clans," the man said once again.

Alba was furious at this point; she was used to the Wanderer clans being brushed aside, after what they had done she thought things would be different.

That was when, though, Raze stepped forward past them.

"We can either do things the easy way, or you will force us to do things the hard way, and if that means fighting against your entire clan, then so be it."

Raze stomped his foot using the first descending step, and a rush of Qi flooded the man, causing him to fall onto the ground and covered in sweat.
