Chapter 380 Is This the Great Plan?
In the world of Pagna, a few times, Raze had been in this situation now. He was met with a dead body, one that he had no intention of killing, and he needed to sort out the issue at hand.
"Clearing the bodies itself is not a problem, but if I come out of this room, and the Redhead band teacher sees that they aren't with me, he's likely to investigate, and I can't just say their bodies disappeared."
Slowly though, as he went through the options, a plan was forming in his head. He had already had a plan in place, and with two plans going hand in hand to deal with this situation, it was perfect.
As if he was in his research days, a grin appeared on his face as he had figured out a breakthrough. He would call himself a genius for having come up with this plan, that was until the door was heard unlocking.
Time was up. In this situation, Raze could only react to what was to come. However, when the door opened, it quickly closed behind, and a slight relief had overcome him.
"May the heavens cry! Damn it, Raze, I had an image of what to walk into when I opened the door, but I didn't quite think it would be this," Dame commented.
He had been keeping an eye on things, and when the Red instructor seemed to be busy, he quickly decided to sneak in, but he had his suspicions that something might have happened when he heard no noise and the amount of time that had passed.
If he entered and the physicians were there, he could have simply just stated that he had come to visit a fellow student. Now, he was staring at three dead bodies.
"And to think that they would call you a cripple, and you just took out three guys like that!"
The horrors were starting to enter Dame's head as he was thinking about how to deal with this situation now. If Raze was at full strength, he wouldn't worry so much, but just from his breathing, he could tell he wasn't healed.
"I hope you have a plan?" Dame asked.
To which Raze nodded.
Not hearing what the plan was certainly left Dame a little uncomfortable. In the middle of their conversation, though, the door behind them was heard opening again. At that moment, Dame had jumped back. He didn't know what to do. Should he hide, try to clear the dead bodies in the room?
When the door opened up, they could see that it was the Redhead band instructor. Naturally, as the full view of what was in the room came to his eyes, the dead bodies stood out to him.
"What is going on he—" Before the instructor could finish his sentence, there was a brief period of pain. It was almost instant, as the life had left his eyes. He managed to look down and noticed the hole in his chest before he collapsed onto the floor.
The Redhead band instructor was now dead as well, making a total of four bodies that were in the room.
"Crap!" Dame shouted in a hushed voice. "I hope this wasn't your plan, to just kill everyone up here. Is that what you plan to do, with each person that comes up here, just surprise them with a magic blast?
"I mean that might work with these guys, but you can't just keep doing this until the principal enters the room!"
Dame quickly shut the door and dragged the body, leaving a trail of blood on the wooden floor. He had to move it so nobody else would see it, but it was impossible to hide four bodies.
"Now when the instructor doesn't return, what is going to happen if the students get suspicious? I guess this does one thing, it buys us more time until someone finds out about it," Dame said, thinking that this might have really been Raze's plan.
The truth was, this wasn't his plan at all. He just needed to react fast; otherwise, the teacher would have ruined his plan. Either way, it didn't matter because with his plan, even if there were ten dead bodies, no one would be suspicious of a single thing.
Raze went up to the door and exited out of the room. There was no communication between him and Dame, but he knew he needed to stay in the room while the other was away.
'I hope he's not thinking that I'm going to do the same. Everyone who enters this room that's not him, to just kill them on sight?' In a way, Dame had to prepare himself for that possibility.
A few moments later, and the door was heard opening again. Dame had activated his special gauntlets to allow him to unleash a large Qi blast and kill his opponent on the spot.
Entering through the door was Raze, and with him, there was one more that followed—Safa. When she entered the room, she covered her mouth up immediately.
She was stood there stunned, as Raze had turned to the door. She had seen her fair share of death now. What had occurred at the temple, what had occurred in the underground cave.
It wasn't the dead bodies that scared her, but the fact that the person who had produced the dead bodies.
"What are you planning to do, Raze? You don't expect me to bring the dead back to life, do you? That's not possible. I managed to go through most of the 2-star spells you gave me, but there was no such mention of something like that in them."
Raze shook his head, and instead of trying to explain to her, it was easier for him to just do. He walked past the bodies and then went to a usual spot, a spot that Safa was familiar with.
Right there, he started to draw on the ground. It was a magic circle, the same magic circle that Safa had been practicing, tethering her magic with.
"You want me to keep practicing my magic?" Safa asked.
It was then that Raze started to pull out the raw level 3 crystals, and there was more than one. She knew what this meant, it was the same when she had reached the 2-star level.
"Do you want me to try and become a 3-star mage right now?" Safa asked.
She was still confused with what was going on but assumed that maybe there was a 3-star spell that could help them out of this situation. So she quickly got to work.
She did the same thing as before, gathering the light magic, breaking down the crystals, and adding the energy around her heart, the core. Finally, she felt it expanding, it was breaking through, and not just one, but a few pulses of energy were being sent out.
Even Dame could feel it; he could feel the power of Mana. It was quite similar to Qi, yet not really the same. It was fresher, energy that resided outside of the body.
"What is the point of all this, though? Is he just trying to get Safa to grow stronger?" Dame asked out loud, but he soon got his answer.
Sparks started to appear right where Safa was, the sparks in the air were large in size. They continued, again and again, until it had formed, creating a large portal in the room.
Straight out from the portal, a large black-skinned claw had come out.
"It's... a portal break!"
