Dark Magus Returns

Looking at Raze, as he stepped out of the magic circle and walked forward through the large empty building towards the battlefield on the other side, he looked like a completely different person.

His hair was black, covered by an iron mask, and rather than his glowing Ghost blade he held the special Lux Sword that was beaming with light.

Then there was his fancy blazer that stood out even more compared to before, standing there in bright colors. It wasn't something that even many Pagna warriors would wear, but rather those from the Rylon Religion, and that was precisely where Raze had gotten this idea from.

"I have a feeling that Raze has already made up his mind," Anna said as she followed from behind. "I think we're just going to get another show like last time."

The others were inclined to agree, and this was a good thing for Harbour. As soon as Raze opened the door, a flying body came his way.

Immediately he moved to avoid the body, and it continued forward, hitting Anna. She had managed to grab the injured man by the clothing around his chest.

He was already done for, so she threw him on the ground to the side and stepped forward, witnessing the chaos at hand.

The fighting was rough, going on in front of the cave opening on the stone flooring. The wanderers were being overwhelmed, almost backed up into a corner, and there was quite a large number from the Demonic Faction present.

"Let's deal with this situation in a nice way," Raze thought as he slowly walked over to the Wanderer and Demonic Faction clan members that were fighting closest.

Right in front of Raze, one of the wanderers was beyond tired, covered in cuts all over his body. The Demonic Faction member shifted forward, trying to strike with his sword.

Right at that moment, Raze swung the Lux Sword down, hitting the sword into the ground. He then quickly lifted the sword and bashed the man with the side rather than the sharp edge, sending him flying back in the other direction.

Lifting his sword up again, Raze attacked the man next to him, putting more strength this time, breaking his sword completely, and with a fist, Raze hit him from under his chin, lifting the man in the air before dropping him back to the ground.

"Thank you…" the wanderer said to his strange savior, who he could only see a strange mask on his face.

"Who are you!" one of the Demonic Faction clan members shouted, noticing that Raze had taken two of them out.

He then rushed forward, grabbing one right by the face and slammed them into the ground. Swinging his sword at the same time using the flat edge, he swatted two people away, swatting them as if they were flies.

"That man, he has to be a middle-stage warrior, but what is with that uniform!" one of them called out.

It wasn't only the fact that Raze was dealing with his opponents with ease and fairly quickly; his weapon and outfit were attracting a lot of attention.

All of them had questions on their mind; was it possibly one of the other clan leaders, maybe it was someone else.

Seeing all of this, they gathered that there was only one person that was with them that could go against this new foe, and that was Slicer.

Stopping his relentless attacks, Slicer jumped back to reposition himself with the rest of his clan members and turned to look at Raze, pointing his large curved blade at him.

"You have some skill, but you're wearing a ridiculous outfit! Who are you anyway!" Slicer asked.

"Who am I?" Raze lifted the sword into the air, and placed both hands on the sword itself. He had used this strike once before to take out a middle-stage warrior by surprise, and since he had shown a lack of skills, many would be underestimating him.

As he held the sword, rather than encasing itself in his Dark magic, sparks started to cover the whole sword.

'The Dark Edge Sword Arts works best with Dark Magic, but I have also learned how to utilize the skills with some of my other magic. Lightning being the most adaptable, this will be the start of another legend!'

Raze then swung his sword down, performing the second formation Eclipse Strike. A massive amount of energy exploded out from his sword, covering the entire area in front of them.

The range of the attack was too wide for them to avoid, and the attack was slightly blue in color due to the lightning attack.

As it came out of his sword, it hit and consumed every member while the bulk of the strike had gone right through Slicer.

The power of the strike had faded, and now the other wanderers could see the aftermath. At the cave entrance there was a cut now on top of the hole, like a ravine.

As for Slicer, his body was on the floor along with most of the Demonic Faction clan members, but his, in particular, compared to the rest of them, was sliced completely in half.

The others' skin was darkened, some of their bodies were still twitching from the leftover magic, but there was one thing that was clear; they were no longer alive.

Not all of the Demonic Faction clan were caught up in the attack. Those that were fighting against wanderers on the side were still alive, and the initial ones that Raze had hit, were starting to get up from their injuries as well.

After seeing what had just occurred though, they had instantly stopped attacking, and were looking to each other for guidance.

Their clan head, the strongest of them, had just been eliminated, and even more so, it had been done in a single attack.

"Who am I?" Raze shouted in a booming voice. "I am the person who took out the Lethal Bite Clan, and this territory now belongs to me."

"I have the power of this Lux Sword in my hand, I have the power to stop anyone from attacking this territory. If more from the Demonic Faction come, they shall meet my wrath again. I am the Sun Warrior!" Raze shouted.

In some circumstances, Raze would have found what he was saying ridiculous, but in this situation, he knew what he was doing, and he had been following how those from Pagna speak.

"The Sun Warrior, he took down the Lethal Bite clan!"

"Did you see his strength? It has to be true. Now it makes sense how it suddenly fell. Of course, Harbour couldn't do something like that."

A slight pain was felt in Harbour's chest as he heard those words, but he knew they were true.

"The Sun Warrior, we have the Sun Warrior in this city. If that's the case, it might be one worth staying with."

The wanderers had a large smile on their face, meanwhile, the Demonic Faction clan members were starting to head back.

For fear of their life, they were heading toward the cave exit. Seeing this, some of the wanderers wanted to go after them.

"Stop!" Raze shouted after the wanderers. "Let them go, let them spread the name, so they know what is in store for them if they were to try this again."

On that day, just as Raze had predicted, a new legend was spread that day, reaching all areas of the continent of Pagna.
