Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 588 Nothing Is A Coincidence

The large number of members from the Behemoth Clan were slowly making their way to the city. They were walking as if it was just another mission for them.

A few of them were even just looking at each other, casually talking about their day. Others were smiling as they saw the hopelessness in the eyes in front of them.

To them, they were part of the Behemoth Clan, one of the elite clans in the Demonic Faction. A faction where only being the strongest mattered, and the strongest were the ones that dictated what happened in their world.

And it was decided that the Dark Magus, along with anyone who tried to protect them, were to be eliminated.

When the soldiers that had been rounded up by the Crimson Crane could now see the faces of those that were coming to attack them.

One of them had dropped their sword and ran back toward the town hall.

"I can't do this, I'm sorry!" The man shouted.

Shortly after, a few more were doing the same and started to break away, running back.

"Hey, if we don't do something then everyone is going to run away!" Lily said. "If that happens, we will have to fight all 1000 on our own, that's going to be impossible."

There was a limit to their Qi, and although they didn't expect their small army to help them out in a large way, at least they could hold them off or distract them.

"Leave them be, they don't have to get involved in this, it's us that they want!" Fixteen claimed.

"Where's that damned woman?" Anna said as she was looking at the situation. "She is part of the problem, she should be here as well."

After saying those words, Anna was already heading off in the other direction. As for who that woman was referring to, they could guess, because Rayna wasn't here, despite the fact that everyone should have heard by now.

"Where's Raze?" Tilon asked.

"He's probably busy, he said for no one to disturb him, right? That's probably why Rayna still isn't here either, she's probably protecting that door… I'm sure Raze would have felt this, anyone could have."

Fixteen was talking about the mass amount of Qi that was coming out from the army in front of them. So many warriors in one place, all of them using their large amount of Qi, it was making them sick to their stomach before the fight had even started, and it was making more and more of their small army below leave.

Their number of two hundred already dwindled to around 170 and the fight had yet to begin.

However, on that rooftop, there was something happening to one person.

"Hey Kizer… are you… are you okay?" Froma asked.

Kizer's head was faced down, the large sword was being held in one of his hands, and his whole body was shaking. Small noises were coming from his mouth, the rattling of his teeth like that on a cold winter day.

"This power!" Kizer shouted, lifting his head, his eyes were glowing. "I can't take it anymore!"

Right after that, Kizer ran to the edge of the building and jumped. He had done so with such power that the end of the roof's building had caved in.

Now he was in the air, a single man was heading right for the front line of the Behemoth Clan. He held the swords with both hands, and landing on the ground he slammed it right on the floor.

The strike of his sword was like a giant wave, several of the Behemoth Clan members were lifted into the air. While others had been taken out by the large Qi attack.

The entire ground shook from his single strike.

"What was that attack!" Tilon called out. "Was Kizer always that strong!"

"No," Reno answered. "It's not that."

Right after the initial attack, Kizer was seen swinging his sword, large Qi strikes were coming out, knocking waves of people at a time.

He was the member with the strongest attack power of the group, and he was clearly showing why that was.

"It's his weapon… Raze told me… the weapon, it gets stronger based on how many opponents he's going up against, and this is the largest battle we've seen. The power flowing through him must be too much for him to contain right now." Reno explained.

"Damn it!" Tilon said, stomping his foot. "It's the Dark Magus's equipment again." Tears were almost flowing down his face. "If he had made my shield, I would have been able to show something as well."

"Hurry, we can't leave Kizer alone down there, the Crimson Crane, we all must attack!" Alba stated, as she rushed in, jumping down below.

The other members followed while Froma stayed back on the rooftop, drawing her bow and firing out.

The Crimson Crane ran across on the ground, and then when they met with the Behemoth Clan, they clashed right against them. Alba was swift with her sword strikes, taking out those she could in a single strike.

Then blocking hits from all sides, and trying to be aware of the scene in front of them.

Tilon bashed others with his shield while also staying close to Lily so she could cover him with her spear attacking.

Reno had joined the fight, infecting some, and then causing those to infect and spread poison to other nearby users. They were falling to the ground one after the other.

"Archers get ready to attack!" Froma shouted. "They're large in number so you can't miss, and even if you do, at least you'll provide some support.

"Right now the Behemoth Clan is attacking us, if we get through this, think of all the spoils, the weapons on their body, we'll sell them and make this whole town prosper, and if we repel the Behemoth Clan, no clan will dare mess with us!" Froma shouted.

These words had instilled a small dream of hope within the army, and although the Crimson Crane were attacking them well.

Not all were focused on the Crimson Crane, and the other members of the Behemoth Clan, charged ahead. They didn't care if they weren't real Pagna warriors or not.

Those that held up a sword, a shield, or weapon, were enemies that were getting in their way in their eyes.

The Behemoth Clan clashed, punching against the hard shield. The attack was blocked and one of the Shield bearers nearly fell to the floor.

As he skidded to the floor though he felt something strange. A great surge in power was rising in him, it was far more than when he was training with the others.

When the attacker came again, the shield bearer remembered what to do and shoved his shield forward, knocking the warrior back and sending his punch back.

"What the… isn't he a normal citizen, how did he just do that right now?" The Behemoth Clan member thought.

Although a small percentage of power would be transferred to the user, this was proportional to the attack being blocked, allowing the stage 1 warriors to achieve a small breakthrough in that moment.

——

In the city, over where Raze was situated, Rayna was standing by the door. She was tapping her foot away looking in the direction of where the fight was happening, not sure if what she was doing was the right thing.

"Sha Mo wouldn't come himself… so the Crimson Crane, they should be able to handle it." Rayna told herself.

"What are you doing?" Anna asked as she landed on the ground. "Get in there, and tell Raze to get out there and fight, and you join in as well. This is your town, and the regular people are fighting, so you should fight as well."

"No!" Rayna shouted back. "This, he told us to not let anyone inside no matter what. It was a direct order, I'm sure he thought of this as well, that this would happen, we need to listen to him."

Anna was getting angry, of course Raze thought this would happen but because of his order he had no clue what was happening, he could be in some strange meditative state and unaware of everything that was happening on the outside.

"If you don't get out of my way, I'll force you to get out of my way!" Anna said and her fists were starting to glow slightly red.

It was strange, Rayna had never seen this before, and she could feel no rise in Qi.

Just as Anna went to go forward, she felt a large heaviness drop beneath her. She quickly avoided the attack and turned around standing next to Rayna.

"That was good reaction from you."

The man who had just spoken was large in size, almost another Behemoth that looked like they could be Sha Mo's brother.

Sturdy legs like tree trunks, the body of a mountain, and a large beard that covered most of his bottom face. His face was a little on the chubby end compared to Sha Mo's but didn't suit the rest of his body.

The moment Rayna set her eyes on this person, she knew exactly who it was. Her heart started to flutter, she noticed this man.

One of the two pillars of the Behemoth Clan, Yanin the Eater.

"What are you doing here… for Sha Mo to send you here, and why have you come directly here!" Rayna said.

She didn't want to give things away, but why wasn't he in the main part of the battle? The building didn't stand out, and for someone to come just to this location.

"Hahaha!" Yanin laughed. "Did you think it was a coincidence we were attacking now, and that I came here, I know exactly what is happening behind that door!"
