Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 794: One Mystery solved

The Dark Magus, Raze Cromwell, was an old man when he perished-he was 76 years old, and his body was already deteriorating quicker than most.

There were perhaps countless reasons for this.

For the last ten of his years, he had spent them as the Dark Magus. Perhaps during that time, he had put his body through too much with the countless experiments, especially those revolving around Dark Magic.

Another reason could have been the countless fights he had with the Grand Magus.

The Magus title, in the first place, was only referred to those at the very top. The Dark Magus had gotten his name because, in a way, even the public had to admit that he was worthy of standing side by side with them, only he was on the other side.

The side of evil, or the bad, compared to the Grand Magus.

"Anyway, let's get ready to head to the meeting place, and remember what I asked you before. "I want you to do research on the mages that went missing as much as possible."

Regardless, it was clear he had the same strength as them because the Dark Magus had been in countless battles against them.

And there was one person whom Raze had fought against more than any of the other mages, and that was Enaxx.

There was a deep grudge that was held between the two, but Raze's hatred for the Grand Magus was almost equal among all of them, with the exception of one individual.

So it wasn't as if Raze was constantly going after Enaxx. It was just due to his position in the Grand Magus of being the most open, he was the easiest to target.

"I know you have your suspicions," Raze said as he looked at Kelly. "About who I really am, and let's just say you are correct."

"Then you will understand."

Kelly was rapidly blinking-she knew the Dark Spirit was hinting around the idea, but the theory Kelly had was that the Dark Spirit, although not looking like the Dark Magus that she knew, was the Dark Magus.

"You mean, it's you, it's really you!" Kelly said.

"I stated if, and as you can tell, things are different," Raze replied.

"But you're growing your power, right? Compared to the first time when you appeared in front of us, you were able to gather more energy."

"After I met with Sophie and saw the state she was in, I realized that you could be in any state. In fact, it wouldn't be far-fetched to say that you could even be in any body!"

Raze had a feeling that this girl was quite clever. Even in the academy, she was the type of student that Raze would have taken a careful eye over and would have loved to see what she would grow into.

Right now, he could tell that Kelly was extremely excited about her theory more likely being true.

"I fought with the Grand Magus countless times, and I fought with Enaxx the most. I had pushed him to the point where he used this special trait of his."

"And I'm telling you now, with his trait, if he was the strongest mage in terms of his powers, his special trait would easily make him the strongest in the world."

"But in terms of magic, he greatly lacks behind the others."

Hearing these words, now the Dark Spirit was no longer denying being the Dark Magus. Kelly was curious about what had come for him to be this way, why he had lied to them about being the Dark Spirit instead of just saying he was the Dark Magus.

But she also believed that if he needed to, he would tell her, and he had already informed her in a roundabout way.

"Still, I don't know his full power. I pushed him far enough for him to use his special trait, but never got him to reveal his breakthrough. Perhaps it was too big of a risk, like what happened to Bronk."

"And whenever the two of us would fight, he could always rely on the fact that one of the others would soon come."

Although the Dark Magus might have earned the title to stand toe to toe with the Grand Magus, he could never fight multiple of them at once.

If he got back to Alterian, Raze had to come up with a plan to try and take them out one at a time.

It was also because of his many fights that Raze knew, with his current strength, he wouldn't be able to go up against Enaxx even now.

With his magic and Pagna skills, he would be able to survive, but beating the other person was another thing altogether.

"So then, what is Enaxx's trait? Do you think he used it to kill the reporter? Harvey seems to think so," Kelly asked.

"That... sure, I'll tell you," Raze said, as he went on to explain Enaxx's trait in detail to Kelly, and Sophie was there listening.

Raze thought there was no harm. These people had done more for him than he thought. They were acting for him at the risk of their lives, just like some initiates he knew in Pagna as well.

A task that he once was forced to do on his own, in this strange set of circumstances, he had found those who were helping him, so giving them some information would be fine.

"I can't believe it," Kelly said with her mouth wide open. "I didn't know such a thing was possible... if he can do that, then the number of spells, the... I can see why you said he had the potential to be the strongest in the world now."

"Nafob Alok, his name was also on some of the files that had Dark Magic on them that me and Harvey found.

"And see if there's any link to Bofan Kilikola."

Kelly nodded along, but she stopped for a moment as she realized something.

"I think I might have found your link already. It might be a coincidence, but I'm sure that the two people you're looking into are the same person.

"Bofan backwards is Nafob."

It was the confirmation that Raze was looking for-that the Dark Faction founder was someone from Alterian, and now that he knew both names he went by, he was sure he would find this man, and with it, the location of the Golden Globe.
