Dark Magus Returns
chapter-833

A meeting was taking place between those now in charge of the Dark Faction, and the person who had called it was one of the most unlikely individuals.

It was Rayna Narfous, from the Neverfall Clan, and also the Dark Magus's current wife.

Although the marriage was just to ensure Belil was off Raze's back in a number of ways, it certainly had its fair share of advantages.

One of them being the gift of a town for them to look after in the Demonic Faction, a place called Flendon Town.

It was known throughout the entire Demonic Faction to belong to both Rayna and Raze, and the last time it was attacked, it had been protected by them along with the Crimson Crane.

Now, a meeting had been called as the town was once again under attack.

Inside the academy, a room set up for the leaders was being used. There were grand chairs set opposite each other in the room with a single chair at the head of the area like a table.

Since no one really cared for formalities and didn't even have official positions, they all just sat where they liked, while Rayna sat at the head of the table.

"Shouldn't that be where Raze sits?" Liam whispered as he took his seat.

"I don't really think he cares about that stuff," Simyon replied. "Let's just get on with whatever is going on."

"I called you all because I just got word that the Behemoth Clan is making moves and they're sending a large force to Flendon Town," Rayna explained.

"The Behemoth Clan, again!" Alba said. "Did they not learn their lesson from last time?"

"Apparently not. Sha Mo has been angry about the whole situation in the Demonic Faction for some time. He has a hatred for the Dark Magus for multiple reasons."

"My guess is the only reason he hasn't attacked is the worry of retaliation from the Neverfall Clan."

"However, my father has never stated that he would get involved if a place was attacked. On top of that, we aren't currently there. On top of that, this time it seems Sha Mo is making a move himself."

After already dealing with a powerful foe in Murkel and those close to him, facing another from the Demonic Faction made the others uncertain.

It was always hard to tell the main clans' true strength, and the Demonic Clans even harder, but it was assumed they were stronger than the other clans. They just lacked men due to how crazy the Demonic Clans seemed compared to other clans.

That was apart from the Behemoth Clan, which was the largest clan in the Demonic Faction. "And what does that have to do with us?" Anna asked. "Right now, Raze is the leader of the Dark Faction. If Sha Mo has a problem with Raze, then he can go against the Dark Faction."

"Although Flendon isn't in the Dark Faction, it is owned by the Dark Magus," Reno said, speaking up. "It's quite clear the only reason they're attacking is because it belongs to the Dark Magus, and they're trying to get a reaction out of Raze."

"Not only that, what about all the people!" Froma said. "Even if Raze isn't there, those people took part in the fight against the Behemoth Clan last time."

"I'm sure Sha Mo isn't going to go easy on any of them. They will lose their lives because of what we did. We have to help them."

Raze was listening to everyone's opinions, but it wasn't just Anna. Even Amir spoke up, thinking it was best for Raze to just stay in the Dark Faction rather than face another large enemy so soon.

"But Flendon was a gift from my father. If we lose it, we could be in his bad books as well!" Rayna pleaded.

While the others were arguing, Raze still didn't say anything, and that was when the outsider decided to speak up as well.

"This isn't as easy as you all think," Himmy said. "There's another issue, which has come at the worst possible time."

All heads turned to Himmy, the person who had come in injured. He had been standing by Raze's side the whole time, so no one had asked why he was involved in the meeting.

"A group from Alter arrived not too long ago. They've sent a message, and at any point in time, a powerful enemy from Alter could be sent here."

"The Behemoth Clan is no small clan, but leave here and there's a chance you lose everything here as well."

This was the true predicament Raze was in-not whether to go or not, but where to go in this situation.

"So what are we going to do, Raze? Speak up, man! Say something, brother!" Liam started shouting.

"Shut up!" Safa said. "Just because it takes you two seconds to make an irrational decision doesn't mean everyone else should. Taking time to think things over is what a sensible person would do."

While everyone was arguing, Himmy walked over to Anna and asked for something. After taking it from her, he wandered over to Raze.

"Do you remember what I gave you when you became an official member?" Himmy asked.

Seeing what was in Himmy's hand, Raze pulled out the same device-it was the small round white object that proved one was a member of Alter.

"If you hand it to me, I can buy some time. You see, these things are also used as tracking devices," Himmy explained.

"Wait, and you're only telling him now?" Safa said.

"I assumed you wanted to keep it to give you a better idea of who to trust, but the situation has changed now," Himmy said. "I will take all of these and move away. They will think we are on the move together and go after me first."

"Will you be okay?" Raze asked.

"I got away from the entire group of Alter. Avoiding one person shouldn't be too difficult," Himmy answered.

"And why would you do this, for me, for us?" Raze asked, still suspicious. He had many people offer a helping hand in the past, only for it to turn out to be false and for their own

gain.

"I do have one favor to ask," Himmy said. "If you find Charlotte, do what you can to protect her... she is a good person, too good for this world, and she seems to have taken a liking to

you."

Himmy then snatched the device out of Raze's hand and immediately headed toward the door.

"It's a promise between men. I know you'll keep it."
