Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 1016: All In The same Place



Raze, along with the rest of the group following him, had arrived at a place where there were several ruins in the area. Fallen pillars, strange stones scattered in different areas, but there was one place that stood out.

Stones that had been formed into a wide opening that went deep into one of the hill-like structures. It wasn't just the outside but even the ground was paved with the same type of stone, in a dull clay-like color.

It was quite clear that it was the entrance to somewhere.

"Should we go inside then or just stand here staring?" Lince asked.

"It could be a trap... there seem to be a lot of those lately," Beatrix added. "Do you really think that the Golden Globe would be hidden in such an obvious place?"

That was the thought that had been running through many of their minds. Wouldn't it be more hidden?

"I don't think so," Krynic said, speaking up. "Think about those that are on the island, including us. The beasts that were located here, the large monkeys protecting the bridge, and finally the large beast that you faced just now. The item was well protected and not many could make it this far."

While the others were deliberating whether to move forward or not, Raze was already walking through the deep dark tunnel. They felt like they had no choice as they followed behind. "At least if there are any traps they should hit him first," Beatrix mumbled to herself.

While walking in there wasn't much light in the tunnel itself. It was mostly covered in darkness but the group being the skilled warriors they were could travel through the tunnels with relatively ease.

Raze wasn't cautious with his steps, he stood confidently on each tile, but he didn't just run in, just in case there was something. He was gaining more confidence in his body and the strength of it, compared to when he had first come to Pagna.

While the others, seeing that Raze was fine, confidently followed behind him.

Eventually an orange glow could be seen up ahead, and not only that, but a few mobs here and there.

"It looks like someone else has made it before us."

Immediately, Raze leapt from his position, leaping into the large open room. He couldn't let anyone else get their hands on the Golden Globe, and if they had them, he would pry it from their fingers.

As he landed into the open room though, the scene in front of him was not what he had expected. He carefully looked around and was trying to get information about the situation.

The others ran into the room behind him with their weapons drawn.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Who is it, are the other Light Faction members here!" Impress called out.

That's when they all stopped. They could see standing in the center of the room two individuals. They were next to each other, they weren't fighting each other and neither looked hurt.

All they were doing was standing in the center, and everyone in the group had recognized these individuals in the room, but they were focused on different people.

"Come on, you all should come closer!" Red shouted at the group. "This is what you've been looking for, it's here!"

The others didn't know why Red was saying this, but all of those from The Light Faction recognized Red, and so did Lince as well.

"So this is where you ended up after our little scuffle... Raze, we should be careful, and not just at one of them but both of them," Lince warned. Lince's eyes were darting between the two and felt like this might have been the worst situation for the two of them to be in.

Lince had gathered that the man he had met with red hair was most likely from Alter working with the Light Faction, and as for the other individual, that was who Beatrix, Ricar, and himself were more worried about.

The man who claimed he was Mosak was also in the room with the rest of them. Depending on the situation, who knew who was going to be on whose side in the fight, and there was a good chance that Raze and Lince would be ganged up on.

"So that's the infamous Dark Magus!" Red said, clapping his hands together. "He's so young, I thought he would at least look a bit older, but I'm glad that you made it on this island as well. As for you, I have business to deal with you, why don't you come over here and fight me!"

Red was saying these words towards Lince, still upset that their last encounter didn't end up in a scuffle.

"Do you think we're fools?" Lince asked as he was more relaxed before. He was no longer bent over in a fighting stance, and instead he was almost laughing at the situation. "It's quite clear why you're getting us to come over, I think anyone could figure it out."

Krynic leaned over to Impress and covered his mouth with his hand.

"I can't figure out... what's going on."

"They're trapped," Impress answered loudly despite Krynic whispering which had caused his cheeks to turn slightly red. "The two of them, they're not fighting, nor have they moved from the center. The flooring changes where they are. Red's taunts were to get us to move in, so we would be trapped with them."

Judging by the scorn on Red's face, it was the perfect guess. Now the group had to know exactly what they were going to do with the two in front of them, or try to get a better understanding of the situation.

When Lince looked at Raze, he could see he was looking at the other man that stood in the center as well.

"Oh, it's you?" Mosak said, raising an eyebrow. "I didn't expect to see you in a place like this, but I guess you didn't expect to see me here as well."

This was worrying news for those in the Light Faction; they didn't expect Raze to know who this individual was and the next line had shocked them all.

"I guess I didn't really thank you for freeing me before," Mosak said.
