Dark Magus Returns
chapter-596

Anna stood there without the cloth on her body, yet she wasn't completely bare. A strange, tight-fitting material was on her body. It was shiny, making it appear as if it was made from a type of metal. Yet it couldn't have been such a material due to how flexible it was on her body. At the same time, it was a dark grey in color.

On the strange material that clung to her body there were lines and circles that were glowing red in areas, such as the shoulder, her elbow, and her wrist. All of these areas were now glowing bright red. The appearance reminded Raze of when he had first seen Zon, yet it was also slightly different at the same time.

"I'll help out, but I don't think I'll be able to fight like this for long… I'm not like him," Anna said.

Finishing her sentence, she rushed forward; a trail of red glow lingered in the air, and she was moving even faster than that of Yanin from the Behemoth Clan.

She rushed forward and jumped, clenched her fist and threw it right at the head of the hammer. The red glow on her body ignited furiously; she was like a bright star in front of Yanin.

The great force had pushed Yanin back despite his Qi, causing him to stumble; the moment she landed on the ground, she ignited again and went for his legs, hitting him constantly each time.

Yanin had lifted his hammer, trying to take the force of the hits, his body swaying slightly side to side from Anna's punches.

He then swung it on the floor, hitting the ground but managed to hit nothing but just destroy rows of houses in one direction.

"Yanin!" Rayna shouted as she had gathered strength once again and used this distraction to her advantage, throwing out her spear and hitting him right in the stomach.

His legs felt weak, and using this moment, Anna had come from above and slammed him with two fists above his head, sending him buckling to the ground.

"You are not welcome in my town; you will be a warning to Sha Mo, that he should have never underestimated us!"

Lifting up the spear, the top of it bashed onto the top of Yanin's head again, hitting it into the ground.

This only further angered him, and the Qi around his body started to grow larger and larger.

When Anna came back to attack and delivered a strong hit on his shoulder, he no longer stumbled to the side. She quickly moved, trying to make another hit, but the red glow in her armor was starting to fade.

While Anna's power was getting weaker, Yanin's power was growing stronger.

"A mere alchemist, the daughter of a declining clan, and a stranger, will not bring me down!" Yanin yelled, standing on his feet; his strong Qi aura pushed Anna away, her energy fading, and Rayna blocked herself while focusing to try not to get consumed by the rampant Qi.

It was the most Qi she had felt in a battle. He had been fighting for a while, injured by all of their attacks including the Dark Magus's, yet he still had this much Qi.

However, as Rayna looked at Yanin, she could feel an even more fierce buildup of Qi. Looking on the floor, the dirt was moving away from her and toward Yanin, turning around, a force had been building up far stronger than she could have imagined.

"Ten Descending Steps!" Raze had rushed forward after completing the build-up of the Ten Descending Steps; the Qi had accumulated, and the two women had done enough to buy him time to build up the steps.

It was the largest issue with the steps, how long they took to build up. At the same time, Raze had the sword by his side, the Ghost Blade.

It was glowing fiercely bright, and looked several times larger due to the buildup of Qi, and around the guard of the sword, Dark Magic was swirling around.

"Magic Void Pulse Formation!" Raze shouted, and dashed forward.

He moved like a beam of light. Bursting from his feet, the bursting of magic and Qi from behind pushed him forward, and the sword had gone right through Yanin.

Raze was now past Yanin's body, and left behind him, there was a trail of blood on the ground. Following the trail of blood on the floor, there now was an entire missing leg where Yanin stood.

With only one leg, Yanin was in the middle of falling, and Raze wasn't done yet.

His sword started to wrap around, and moving in again, he swung the sword in a snake-like shape.

"Shadow Bind Formation!"

Visual Qi along with magic restricted his body, holding him in place.

However, Raze was sweating, his chest felt like it was in incredible pain. He felt like he would collapse at any moment and had to switch to the Light Lux Sword in his hand.

In the middle of switching, he fell to his knees.

'Not enough… not yet,' Raze thought.

Lifting his head though, he could see that Rayna had run up one of the buildings on the side, she jumped in the air, and started to spin her spear in the air rapidly.

The Qi was flowing through her entire body, and she swung it down, hitting the end right on top of Yanin's head.

A loud bang like explosion went off; wind from the attack blew several of the roofs nearby, and at the same time, Yanin's body was swaying, until he fell to the ground.

Yanin, one of the pillars of the Behemoth Clan, had been defeated by three individuals the world had yet to really know of.

At the same time, one of the small circling plates had seen everything. It had witnessed everything that had been used including the non-Pagna techniques, as well as a person that didn't even seem like they were from this world.

What was he to do now, how would he report this, how would anyone believe the words he wrote down without having witnessed it himself?

He was stuck in a situation he never believed he would be, and now what was to be the result of Yanin… why did Raze want him alive?

After allowing the sword to do a little bit of its work, Raze had to dig the sword into the ground to help lift himself up.

He had pushed himself beyond what he had expected, even using the strongest moves. The enemies were becoming more difficult to deal with, and perhaps if he didn't have the Lux and Ghost swords, this fight would have been a loss.

Walking over, he looked at Anna, who had collapsed along with Rayna, both of them somewhat lying on the floor with their upper bodies leaning up, looking at Yanin.

"You two did well; you helped me out more than you think," Raze said.

"You were the one that made our job harder by telling us to keep him alive, so now do what you need to do," Anna said.

Thinking that he would absorb him, however, Raze instead pulled out a piece of chalk and started to draw a magic circle underneath his body.

"This man will become the catalyst for my first experiment!" Raze said with a deep smile.
