Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 841: Challenging A Monster



The flash of light blinded the entire group that was surrounded by the magic circle. They all felt a tingling sensation through their bodies as they could see nothing in front of them. As the light began to fade, suddenly new scenery appeared around them.

They were now in a dimly lit cave and were quite cramped inside.

"That felt strange, really strange," Mada said.

"Did it? I thought it felt kind of nice," Ricktor answered.

Mada just gave him an uncomfortable look, wondering how anyone could like that feeling. Then again, he remembered Ricktor was always strange compared to the rest.

"It always amazes me, honestly," Kizer said. "How a human can do something like this? How can the things in our body just move us around like that?"

"I guess that's why they call it magic," Lily replied.

"Enough talking, you guys!" Alba said. "Remember what Raze said, we need to head to the town of Flendon straight away."

The group moved to the exit and away from the spot where they had entered, but upon looking behind them, they were a little worried. Raze should only be a few moments, maybe minutes, behind them.

"I can stay behind," Cronker said. "I'm the fastest, so I'll be able to catch up as soon as he arrives to give you peace of mind."

"No," Rayna said. "Because you are the fastest, you should head to Flendon first. You could save a large number of lives. I want to wait for Raze too... but waiting will do nothing."

"I'll stay," Dame replied. "I'm pretty fast on my feet as well. The rest of you go, it'll be fine. I'm just as fast as Raze, so don't be surprised if the two of us get to Flendon before you. Now, no questions-just scram."

Rayna didn't say anything else, and neither did Safa or Alba. They all left at that instant, heading to the town of Flendon.

While Dame waited in the cave, he began tapping his foot impatiently on the floor. The taps grew louder and louder.

"Raze, you should be here by now. Has something happened to you?" Dame said to himself. "But that's impossible, right? We were all there with you in the room. Nothing could have happened to you."

"But then why aren't you here? It's not like I can just head back to the academy and help you out... come on, Raze... come on."

Dame felt useless, unable to help Raze, but the fact that several minutes had already passed and there was still no sign of him weighed heavily on his mind. Several times now, Dame had seen Raze push himself too far.

Even when he did, he would move from one task to the next. If he had pushed himself again in a troubling situation and arrived here, he might need Dame's help to get him to Flendon, depending on his condition.

If he had to, Dame would even force him not to go if there was any risk of Raze losing his life.

At the town of Flendon, the guards standing at the north gate were doing everything in their power not to turn and run. They hadn't realized that some at the back had already done just that.

In front of them, they could see the true might of the Behemoth Clan. All its members were about a hundred meters away from them, and if the full force were to charge at once, they couldn't even imagine being able to defend against such an attack.

The only reason some of them stayed and held their ground was because a young warrior had jumped out in front of them and screamed at the top of his lungs, challenging the others to a duel.

"Come on!" Brack shouted. "The Behemoth Clan is one of the three major clans in the Demonic Faction. Right now, everyone knows you'd win a battle with the numbers you have. The people behind us aren't even warriors from a clan."

"Isn't it embarrassing to use your numbers to take over a town? Why don't you prove that you're one of the three major clans not just because of your size but because of your strength as well?"

Brack was shaking inside, his entire body betraying his fear, and he couldn't believe the words coming out of his mouth.

Sha Mo's large size and frame came to the forefront as he looked at Brack.

"What words to be spoken by someone who literally abandoned our clan," Sha Mo stated. "So this is where you ran off to in the end, and now you challenge us when you couldn't even hack it in the Behemoth Clan! Ha!"

The single loud laugh, filled with Qi, forced Brack's feet to skid slightly across the sand, and it was just from the sound of his voice.

On the wall itself, Fixteen, Yarlston, and Lince, who were watching everything, couldn't believe what was happening.

"If he turned around and ran right now, I don't think anyone would blame him," Fixteen said, and the other two nearby thought the same.

"That doesn't change anything!" Brack said. "My words are still true. The Dark Magus and the Crimson Crane aren't here. So why bring such a large number of people? You're using all your power to wipe out an ant!"

"Maybe the Behemoth Clan has no strong warriors, which is why you won't accept my duel!" Brack shouted again.

Sha Mo was quite surprised. No one would dare speak to him in such a way in the Behemoth Clan, certainly not a student. And now, because a person was on the other side, they felt free to talk like that.

"Very well," Sha Mo said, but that's when another figure with long black hair tied in a ponytail jumped out in front.

The person was tall but not large like Sha Mo, who looked like a descendant of a giant.

"I am Umonke, one of the pillars of the Behemoth Clan. It would be an insult if the Clan Head accepted this duel. You said there is no one strong in the Behemoth Clan, so I will take you on." Umonke turned and bowed to Sha Mo, jumping into position and landing around ten meters away from Brack.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
