Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 776: I'm Keeping You Alive

As the vice leader of the Bonum Society, Olag had been in numerous situations. Not only was he strong, but he had a lot of experience dealing with matters and had been put in plenty of situations where he needed to make quick, snap decisions. When he entered the training room, he thought a few things. Sure, the young man with a scar across his chest was strong, but he could take him on. Even when he was going up against Raze's allies, he was only doing so to see if they were strong enough to trust with the rest of the Bonum Society members.

In truth, he thought that he might be able to go up against the man known as Zon a bit more, and bring out what he wanted from him, but decided it was pointless in the end. Instead, this young person seemed a lot more fun to deal with. Olag was ready to bring out of this young person what everyone saw in him, including that of Amir. While fighting, although Olag was having a lot of fun, there was a thought that crept into the back of his mind constantly.

'Was this person really strong enough to go up against Murkel, the Dark Faction leader, and the one in charge of the academy?'

This was the main thought that was going through Olag's head as Mantis' fist had penetrated his stomach. The person in front of him was strong but too naive. There was still a chance for him to show more, which was why Olag was ready to push him further. That was until he heard the sound of several of his men groaning, and several thuds as if something heavy had hit the floor.

When looking up, Olag could see the man in the blazer, standing there and all of his men on the floor. Not only were the stronger individuals of the Bonum Society on the floor, but Olag's personal party, the ones he would go out with, were also defeated.

There were around ten or so others that had fallen on the floor as well.

"They all were defeated?" Olag said. "But that's impossible."

Olag was strong, and Amir was also strong, but so were many members of the Bonum Society. The feat that this person had just accomplished wasn't something that the two of them could do, at least not so quickly and effortlessly. When looking at the white-haired man, there wasn't a single mark on him, and that's when a thought crossed his mind.

'Did I get the wrong one? Is the person that's right next to me right now... not the one they were talking about?'

Looking up, Olag could then see the white-haired warrior walking towards him calmly with his sword by his side.

"I would advise you to get away from that young man," Raze said as he lifted his sword and then swung it down. A red slash appeared through the air and came out at an incredible speed.

Olag had no choice but to pull himself away from Mantis and move to the side. No longer was he even focused on Mantis, but instead on his own heart rate that was beating incredibly fast.

Looking at the attack that had just missed him, Olag could see a large indent that had been made across the floor and had even cut part of the wall.

'That attack was so fast, and he attacked from so far away as well,' Olag thought. 'He cut through the steel with it. I might be going crazy, but it didn't feel like he used much Qi either.' The panic was starting to set in, but behind that panic, there was a creepy hidden smile. This was more like it, this was more along the lines of what he expected someone to be like, a person that was able to beat Murkel, a person that was to be the head of the Dark Faction.

'I want to test him a bit more. I've only seen a single attack and I didn't even see what he did to the others. The good thing is, it appears as if they're still alive, but I want to see it, I want to see what else he can do before I clear up this misunderstanding!' Olag thought.

It was then that Raze started to swing his sword again and again, performing the Crimson Slash multiple times. Olag quickly needed to move out of the way to avoid the attacks. He could see that each attack was just as dangerous as the last, tearing and ripping through the metal in the area.

The other warriors that had come with him weren't safe either, as all of them were moving away from the attacks that were tearing up the place.

'Just how long can he keep this up for!' Olag thought, but strangely he started to notice something. Now the attacks weren't close to hitting him, and it was the same for the others that were behind him.

Then suddenly, the red Crimson Slashes had stopped. Olag looked at where he was standing. The others that were running behind him were out of breath, and as for the ones that were on the floor, they were the ones part of his group, part of those that had attacked Raze.

It was then that Olag realized a little too late that every one of them was on one side of the room, while the white-haired student was now next to his ally.

Darkness started to come out from Raze's arm, and was beginning to surround the sword. It covered it from top to bottom, until the entire sword was covered black, an eclipsed sword. "You... you missed us on purpose, you planned all of this, to put us all in one place!" Olag asked.

"I know... I was the one that told you all to get away from him..." Raze said as he raised his sword above his head. "But that was the only thing that was keeping you guys alive."
