Chapter 447 Where To Go Raze?
Raze had listened intently to what Amir was saying. What made him special, or what made him different compared to others.
It was the first time he had heard of such a thing in his life. During his time as a mage himself, there was a time where he thought himself as talented.
He had worked hard and studied magic all by himself, but when joining the world of mages, he realized that he was far behind others.
So he put in more work than anyone else because of his love for magic, the magic that broke him away from his cruel life. He returned the favor by learning everything he could.
Even then, though, it was hard to say it was due to talent that he got to where he was. In the end, he was even unable to surpass the others he needed to.
So he went and resorted to the only thing left, Dark Magic. Sure, some might have said he was talented in Dark Magic, but the truth was, it was just because no one was able to study it as extensively as he could.
It was his way of surpassing and surprising other mages by using Dark Magic. Right now, was the first time he had ever felt like he was different or special compared to others.
'Is it because of the body I am in currently, the body I am in now, is not of Alterian. If I was to answer Amir's question differently, or more correctly the fact would be.'
'I am someone from Pagna, with the knowledge of those from Alterian. If what he said is true, there had to be a reason why I managed to survive. I had no dantian before, and had made a magic core first.'
'Or was it because of the state this body was in the first place. There are too many variables to think about, but it's a good fact to know.'
"You know a lot about Alterian, and it seems Alter as well. I have a few questions to ask myself," Raze stated.
"What are the links between your society and Alterian, and what about Alter as well? Why do some of the items have the marking of Idore the Noble? Why are his mages coming here in the first place, and what do you know of the Dark Faction founder!"
There were so many mysteries and leads that Raze was currently following, going down to try and figure out a way back to Alterian, but even more so, Raze didn't just want to kill and defeat the Grand Magus, he wanted to tear down everything they were doing.
They were involved in this world, in the world of Pagna, he could feel it, and Raze wanted to slowly creep in the fear, getting rid of everything, causing them to panic before eliminating them all.
While thinking this, his fists were tensing relatively hard until his knuckles went white.
"You have a lot of anger in you," Amir answered. "Those questions you are asking, you will know more than I do about that."
"I only know the state of Pagna, my focus is on helping Pagna. You are right, Alter and the Alterians seem to have a connection, what that is or if they are working together it is beyond my scope."
"The Council of the Bonum Society might know more, and I don't think I have to tell you, to talk to them you would have to join the society.
"However, now that you are linked to Alter, I very much doubt they would even let you in through the front door."
Raze couldn't help but scorn at the lack of information. The same with Alterian, all of these groups were holding information at the very top, hiding it from those at the bottom.
They would inform the bottom of just enough to give them a reason as to why to fight. A cover-up to the truth of things.
"Then why not kill me, if I am in Alter and you are in Bonum Society," Raze asked.
"Because I think you will be able to help Pagna. From the way I see it, these mages are slowly invading our world of Pagna, first our dimensions, but what happens when they can freely travel to Pagna?"
"From what I have seen with you, you seem to have a large hatred for the mages. You should know the saying, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, it is more beneficial to keep you alive."
There was no lie to that, it wasn't that Raze wanted to get rid of the mages, just the Grand Mages, and since their two goals aligned for now.
"So this is a good story between you two, and it's really hard for me to follow, but I was wondering, Raze is it, rather than Dark Magus?" Alba asked. "Are you even able to get us out of this place?"
The Crimson Crane had been standing by the side for a while. The conversation, of societies and groups, it was hard for them to follow, and Alba wanted to look into it more as soon as she got back.
"A word of caution," Amir interrupted. "I want to say with your special case I believe you have the potential to grow stronger than the principal, but with the way you are right now, you do not stand a chance."
"If you were to head back to the academy, he will look into matters. The death of the Lethal Bite Clan, it will cause the Dark Faction to be in uproar, and they will need to pin the blame on someone.
"To put it simply, if you go back now, you will die."
The Crimson Crane members couldn't believe it. After they had just witnessed what the Dark Magus was able to do, Amir was still saying that.
Amir himself was strong, and he had seen what the Dark Magus could do, so he was the most likely person to be able to gauge the strength between the two of them.
"I will head back to the academy, and I promise you, I will do everything in my power to make sure that all of your fellow students and friends stay alive. I have some sway over the principal; he will listen to me."
Listening to it, Raze was wondering, was it okay to trust the Vice-principal with such a thing. He had helped them before.
'When… did I start worrying about the others so much.' Raze thought to himself with a slight smile.
"If you don't do as you promise, then you will be added to my hit list as well," Raze said looking directly into Amir's eyes.
It sounded like a light-hearted joke, but Amir could see the conviction through his eyes and his words, he was serious.
"Wait, but if you're not going back to the academy, then where will you go, where can you go?" Alba asked.
Thinking about it, there were a couple of options. Raze could head to the Neverfall Clan. There was Rayna who would look after him along with the Clan head.
He was extremely powerful and would be good protection, but being there would limit him in his investigation.
If he could, right now he still wanted to stay in the Dark Faction, and if that was the case, it only left him one choice.
"I will head to Alter."
