Dark Magus Returns



The appearance of the two Dark Guild members was the same as before. The two of them were wearing the dark robes that covered their faces, but their general body structure could be seen.

Raze could tell that these were the same people as before, but as for the two of them, they could tell the same.

They knew that this was the Dark Spirit, but then why did the energy that was overflowing out of him from before no longer feel the same? Now, it felt like they were dealing with another human of all things.

In fact, if they had seen the Dark Spirit like this before, they wouldn't have thought he was a Dark Spirit in the first place.

"You seem a bit different, Dark Spirit," Harvey commented.

"I am getting used to appearing in this world," Raze replied. "As time goes on, I'm sure my power will continue to grow as well, which will be a benefit to us both."

There was no need to give many more details other than that, but if Raze wanted to use these two to help him now and in the future, he had to keep up this somewhat facade of being a Dark Spirit that belonged to the Dark Magus.

He didn't feel too bad about this; after all, the person they were worshiping in the first place was him, but that would be hard for them to believe with a change in appearance and a change of power.

If people knew how weak the Dark Magus was now compared to before, then the dynamics between them might very well change. After all, Raze had no clue as to why these people even worshiped the Dark Magus in the first place.

"From our talk from before, I was wondering how the task has been going," Raze asked.

The two hooded figures looked at each other, wondering which one of them should go first, and in the end, Harvey stepped forward slightly, giving a small bow before answering.

"I have been looking into what the Grand Magus has been doing. I have been gathering information, but right now, it's hard to know what is considered suspicious of their movements, or if there is any dirt on them that we can use."

"The Grand Magus will be good at covering their tracks, so to get information that I believe will be useful to you, I believe we will need more of those on the inside. I think it might be best if we look for more Dark Magic users, those that follow our cause."

"With more eyes in places, I'm sure they will be able to find if they they mess up."

A larger network would come in handy, but there was an issue when groups became large. For one, it was harder to keep an eye on everyone's movements and what they were doing.

The larger the group, the harder they were to control as well. However, was this something he needed to worry about when he wouldn't be here?

"A large group is harder to control. If they are to join the Dark Guild, we need ways to know that they are truly loyal to the cause. Make sure to look into those things before asking them to join," Raze answered.

"Of course," Harvey replied with a smile. He was already doing this, so he was glad to hear that the Dark Spirit felt the same way about these things.

"There is one more thing I wish to inform you," Harvey started to explain. "It seems that the central government is looking into matters involving the Dark Magus. I do not know the reason why, but it does seem strange that they would do so at a time like this."

"For now, they do not know about the Dark Guild, especially since it just includes the two of us, so I doubt it has anything to do with this. I thought it might be best to inform you, since I'm sure you're aware that the Grand Magus have a lot of influence in this world."

When Harvey explained everything he found, he wanted to hide his real identity. The fact that he was in the police force but still gave the information needed to find these things out.

'They are looking into the Dark Magus here on Alterian again. They must have already confirmed my death. No, they knew I died right in front of their eyes,' Raze thought. 'What is more likely is that they are starting to hear of news in Pagna. The likelihood that the two worlds are connected in more ways than I knew is quite high.'

'If reports are coming through, they are looking into whether or not I really died, or had someone take my place. I can already imagine the panic that is going through them. It's making me a little excited,' Raze thought to himself.

Now that Harvey was done with his report, it was Kelly's turn to answer. When she walked forward, she seemed to be playing with her hands, twirling them around before speaking.

"I apologize," Kelly replied. "I have not yet had time to look into your request about mages of the past that might have gone missing. I have been quite distracted, keeping up my appearance in real life, but with more time, I can definitely get you the answers that you need."

This was disappointing to hear, but Raze wasn't so much in a rush for this in the first place. If he found out who the Dark Founder was, he then needed to look into more information and decide what to do from there.

Likely, he needed to find a real way to get to Alterian or a way to increase the time he could spend in Alterian before diving into anything to do with that because now he had his own problems that he needed to deal with on Pagna as well.

"Not to worry, when you have the time, look into that as soon as possible. Instead, I have another request," Raze suggested.

The main reason for his visit was to get the items that he needed from his vault, but it would be quite difficult even if the location was quite close.

"If it's possible, I need a way to head to the Central Mage Academy," Raze requested.

His hiding place, his vault, was in plain sight, at the Main Central Academy.
