Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 168 One too many

From the looks of things, the snakes seemed to be using the outpost as some type of nest. They were coming from all over the large base, and were intertwined around many of the objects. One of the large snakes had swirled its body around a tower wrapping around it. From there it was opening its mouth and firing out ice blasts towards them. Seeing this, Dame was quite happy to throw his fists a couple of times in the air, when doing so, Qi blasts would come out of his fist and hit the ice blasts dead on. It exploded the attack causing small shards to be sent outward all over the ground but didn't touch the two of them at all. "Haha, I really missed using these, I only got to use them once, and it's been a while. If I can't use my chicken, then I need to at least use the thing that's causing my chick to be out of action!" Dame said. The outpost was placed next to a small hill that led to a cave, and from the looks of things, more and more snakes were crawling out from the hole as they got rid of them. With his magic and sword skills, at most Raze was finding that he could deal with three of the snakes at once, but he had to have an immense amount of concentration. He had to avoid their spit attacks and their bites. Using his sword to attack one head on, and then use his spells to fend off one or two of them. Thanks to Dame, and him being able to see this, he would keep the rest of them busy only allowing one to slip past him once Raze had dealt with one of them. It was a good thing that he was on this trip as well. Raze jumped up, and struck the head of one of the snakes before it would open its mouth. While in the air, two snakes went ahead to bite him. With his hand, Raze fired out the Dark Pulse at one hitting it in the mouth. Then just before the other struck him, he used the eighth descending step to spin his body. While doing this he added his wind magic to his sword. When the snake went to bite him, his wind magic was cutting the snake's mouth to bits. Finally, Raze landed on the ground, and then with two hands out, both of them facing the side snakes, he fired out the Dark Pulse again, finishing them off. It was a flashy display to say the least but slowly Raze was getting the hang of it, his heart was beating fast and the rush of energy was returning to him. 'I'm starting to remember what it was Iike when I had to fight in those dimensions. Back then I had to fight on my own, and most of the time I would have to employ an aggro technique. '

'Hitting one of the beasts and leading them away to then blast them with my magic from the distance, but this has given me a chance to excel in my skills. To combine my Pagna warriors strengths along with my magic.' It was a powerful feeling that Raze was experiencing right now. At the entrance of the barrack's, Gunther, Simyon, Safa and Liam had caught it all. They were witnessing everything that was happening right now, and they couldn't believe their eyes. They were seeing the spells being used, the swordsman ship, and even Pink taking out the large snakes as if they were nothing but balloons, one by one. "Who are these two people really, and what is that strange beam stuff coming out of his hands!" Liam said out loud. It was quite clear that 'Pink' was not a normal student, and Raze was using powers they had never seen before. "Come on, you two know him right, and you're related to him, what's that strange power that he's using?" Liam asked again. "I… I want it.. I want to use it as well."

Simyon didn't know what to say, he knew that Raze magic was meant to be a secret and now everyone was here to view it, but even he was starstruck by what he was seeing. He had seen some of Raze's magic before but not it being used like this. 'Raze just how strong have you gotten, or was this something you could always do?' "Did you know about this?" Gunther asked, his hand was still shaking. "Did you know that your friend could do this?" Simyon didn't answer, and was looking at Safa, at least she had an excuse as to why she couldn't answer, so these awkward situations seemed like they would always have to fall into his hands. "Don't worry your silence is an answer. It seems you special friend has a lot of secrets." Gunther started to chuckle to himself. "They should all just count the lives lucky that they ran into me. I'm not too bothered about who you are or what powers you use." "As long as they let me in on their little secrets." Gunther winked. It was lucky for them, and SImyon did feel that way. Gunther certainly seemed to be the best person to catch them in that act. "Are you sure you're related to Mada?" Liam asked. "The two of you are just so different, maybe it's because one of you came from the left ball and the other from the right?" "Seriously man?" Simyon asked. "What is it with you and balls, do you have some type of fetish?" "Hey, I'm just speaking my truth." Liam replied.

Rather than getting involved, the group continued to watch the amazing spectacle mainly focusing on Raze because the colours and powers they were seeing him do, it was truly magical and was drawing them in. With their eyes fixed ahead of them though, they were unaware of the large bulge moving through the snow heading towards them from behind.

Thanks to the tag team performance from Dame and Raze, both of them were having no trouble. For Dame in the first place, this level of dimension was something he could take on with ease. It was somewhat unfair of him to be here which is why he was happy to take a back seat as well, and soon the number of snakes that were coming out were starting to lessen. There was still the snake that had wrapped itself around the tower, and around four more that were surrounding them. 'The numbers have reduced by quite a bit, in total have we taken out around fifty or so?' Dame thought. 'That's quite a high number, and it means a lot of crystals as well. This is our own little gold mine, and is much better than the dimension the Light Faction had, it would be nice to keep this.'

"If that's the case I better warn him. Hey!" Dame shouted out. "Try not to kill any more beasts and just injure them so they can't attack us!" "Huh!" Raze said performing the two step shift he avoided a bite and the snake crashed into the snow behind him, throwing it in the air. He swung his sword at the same time, hitting it by its side. "If we take out any more of these guys, I'm a little worried that the dungeon boss might come out!" Dame shouted. It was at that moment, that at the entrance of the barracks one of the snakes had appeared from the snow. "CRAAPP!" Liam shouted at the top of his lungs. His voice was so loud that both Dame and Raze turned to have a look. "Simyon, and Safa, what are them two doing here?"

'That's the teacher as well, that can't be good.' Dame thought. The moment the large snake appeared though, Gunther pulled out his sword and swung it up. The vision of water appeared, it was visual Qi. It looked like a wave had split into two, and so had the snake. It was killed with a single swing, the blood falling and dying the snow beneath them. As soon as he had killed the snake though, the whole ground started to rumble. Immediately the other snakes that were near Dame and Raze scurried away, and even the one in the tower moved away. The rumbling sound was growing larger and was coming from the cave entrance. "What is that?" Raze asked. Crashing through the cave hole, a large scale body had appeared, but it wasn't just from one of the holes, several more had crashed and cracked through the hill. In total three giant holes had been made in the hill, and at the end of them were three large heads all of them slightly different in colour. They were around four times bigger than that of the snakes they had been fighting, they were towering in the air, swaying left to right. The shadow cast by the three of them nearly covered the entire outpost they were in. And soon, all six of their eyes, two from each head of the giant snakes, looked down at those below. "It's… the dungeon boss." Dame muttered.
