Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 145 Winning at all costs



Chapter 145 Winning at all costs

Dame made sure he had heard Raze's words right when he had asked the question and he was trying to figure out what he was implying. Some might have thought he just meant whether or not Dame could take on the others all by himself.

Being three stages above all of them, Dame would have no trouble if he were to use his full strength, but that would raise eyebrows and would put him in a difficult situation. Yet, if he just narrowly beat them all, it would still somewhat have the same effect, putting him in trouble.

Yet, the way Raze spoke, he wasn't asking for Dame's help in that way.

'It's just as I thought, that guy he's adamant to fulfill his task on his own, no matter what. He's going to take out these guys on his own, with his own strength and he isn't going to care how he's going to do it.'

The first thing that came to Dame's mind was the Dark Magus' strange power. Perhaps he was going to use strong powerful items that he had created, or special Qi pills to strengthen himself and defeat them all.

The question that had been asked then, was whether or not Dame could protect him from all of those around him. From all of the onlookers, the principal as well as the five disciple leaders.

'Most of them I could probably hold off, I still have the gauntlets he gave me as well, but the principal will be a tricky one and with all of them at the same time. Maybe, I could hold them all off just long enough for Raze to create a portal…but even then.'

"You're asking me to do something crazy you know!" Dame said as he swung his arm, and knocked Sherry's arm that was wielding the sword away. Right behind her following up was Ricktor, who was becoming quicker and quicker on the attack.

Dame had to place both of his hands together, and swirled his Qi around defusing the power of the attack before it reached his hands and grabbed the tip of the sword quickly throwing that to one side as well.

"But I guess I was crazy as well for following you in here, so we should at least stick together for now. You do whatever it is you want to do."

Having his answer, Raze had shifted away from Dame and now was looking at Mada in the second half of the fighting arena floor. There were a few marks on the ground from the fighting, but what he needed to do was finish this fight fast, before Lisa could recover and join in on the fight.

Raze could see Mada coming in the same way as he had done before, jumping from side to side heading straight for him.

'I was a little worried about doing this because of what Dame and Gunther said, but in this situation, we will just have to deal with the consequences after, and who knows? Maybe those guys will step in and help me out!'

Mada had dashed right at Raze, and at the right time, he performed the next skill.

'The third descending step!' Raze thought in his head, as the image of the book appeared.

Right then and there the Qi had gathered in his legs and he jumped in the air backwards performing a type of back flip. The swipe from Mada's sword had completely missed, and he was only able to react slightly in time to seeing a foot almost hit his face.

He leant back and the strike missed, but following up from the foot was Raze's sword. Mada went to avoid that as well leaning back further.

'I was only just able to avoid that. What is this, is it a technique? I've never seen someone spin backwards so fast?' Mada thought.

It was quite clear some type of technique had been used because the rotation that had been used compared to a regular back flip wasn't normal.

Carefully having avoided the sword though, Mada felt a stinging pain right across his face. Touching it with his finger he could see a bit of red.

'Blood… did he cut me?'

Mada had a single cut, right down the center of his face drawn like a line. It was fairly shallow but enough to draw blood and cause the warrior discomfort.

'But I avoided the strike, how did he cut me?' Mada thought. 'And with a blunt wooden sword.'

The moment Raze had landed, what went best with the third descending step was none other than the fourth descending step. As soon as he landed on the ground with both feet, the continuous Qi flowed and exploded. The floor tiles underneath his feet slightly broke, and Raze came right at Mada like a rocket.

Before Mada could even do anything else, Raze had slashed his sword right against the chest of Mada, and a long cut across his body appeared, blood spattering across the ground and in the air.

"Ah!" Mada groaned as he moved backward, using his hand on his wound with the blood soaking through it. Unlike the last cut, this one was fairly deep. Shocked by what was happening, Mada had somewhat stumbled.

Watching from the side, Charlotte's eyes had bulged open, and Himmy had noticed that she had gone rather quiet, even though the one she was rooting for was winning.

'I wasn't so sure of it before, but I'm sure of it now. Raze… he's using wind magic on his sword, to make it just as sharp as a real sword. That's how he's cutting all of the students. Is he trying to make our job difficult? What if there was another Alterian among those that are here?' Charlotte thought.

In terms of magic though, Raze wasn't done yet. He had gotten the blood he needed off the sword, and oddly, with his free hand, he then proceeded to rip his upper shirt off, revealing his pale but well-toned body.

With the upper half of his uniform, he then threw it in the air between him and Mada.

'At this angle, the clan leaders won't be able to see clearly.' Raze then used the second descending step.

The Qi blasted off the back of his foot, causing him to leap forward and cover the distance between the two quickly. With his fist ready, the clothing had wrapped around his fist.

"This is for trying to kill me, you f*ck!" Raze shouted.

Underneath his shirt, where his arm was covered, dark magic started to swirl around. It was activating. Along with the Qi of the second step, right now, a devastating power was growing.

Mada managed to swing his sword in time.

'Flowing strike!' Producing an attack of his own.

The moment the fist and the sword hit though, the sword snapped in half, and the fist had hit Mada right in the stomach.

Mada's eyes looked as if they were about to bulge out of his head, and immediately all the air and blood had come out of his mouth. Before he knew it, he was flying through the air. He had gone right past Ricktor and Sherry and continued back, until he had fallen and crashed right off the stage, landing right at the clan leaders' feet.

They looked down at the bloodied and injured Mada, who still was unable to breathe properly from the strike, and Raze, who had his fist held out, and a hole through his shirt that had covered his attack.

At that moment, a thought had entered Murkel's head.

'This kid… is dangerous!'
