Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 203 Light Faction Trouble

Out from the ruins, multiple men dressed in the same white clothing had come out. They were appearing behind the pillars in the distance, coming from around the corner and even emerging from sections of the large pyramid.

There were several holes along each large step of the pyramid that would allow one to enter, and more and more people were starting to pour out. By the time they were coming towards them, there were already around thirty or so.

Immediately, Reno rushed to the side.

'I need to try to get rid of them as silently as possible,' Reno thought, as he avoided the sword strike of one man and then shoved his fingers into the mouth of another.

As he did so, the man started almost immediately foaming at the mouth before falling to the floor.

Still, he had to pull back, as he jumped and stayed by the hooded man's side. He could see two men approaching him, and with a stepping motion of his fist and then swinging it out, a wave of dark green physical Qi went out, hitting several of the other men.

As it did, they weren't swept off their feet, but instead, something came over them that made them almost instantly fall to the floor.

'This man, he's able to take out those that are just as strong as Ricktor in a couple of sweeping motions and single hits! He really is impressive,' Raze thought.

He was starting to understand why many were respecting him around the city and had treated him with respect. He was most likely a high-ranking clan member or maybe even a master. contemporary romance

Still, Raze was now dealing with two warriors himself who had swung their swords towards him. He managed to use the descending steps to just move out of the way and strike against the swords, but he was finding it hard to get a good hit on them, only deflecting their attacks and pushing them back.

Reno was keeping an eye on him because now that he knew his true strength, he felt like he needed to protect him, since it was his fault that they were in this situation in the first place.

'Damn, I thought he was a martial arts master, but he was only at the second stage!' Reno thought as he continued to avoid the sword strikes and even caught two of them with his hands, then swirled them around and thrust them so they stabbed their own users in the stomach.

'This guy, he didn't even know much about Alchemist, so I just thought he was someone who concentrated on martial arts. But I guess that's not the case either; he's just an ordinary warrior, and I took him to a place like this!'

What was worrying Reno was that even though they were defeating more from the Light Faction, it would cause one or two problems. He was a member of the Crimson Crane, a neutral group that wasn't meant to get involved in others' affairs. If he took out too many from the Light Faction, they could very well ruin their status as a neutral group.

The second issue was that, judging by the techniques this man was also clearly from the Demonic Faction. His original plan was that if they were to be spotted by someone, the two of them would just run away. But how could they? Now he realized why he was running so slowly before as well. It was because he was running at the normal speed for a second-stage Pagna warrior. His original plan of them ditching would be impossible; they would catch up in a heartbeat.

Even now, the hooded man was struggling with two third-stage Pagna warriors on his own.

Due to the panic in the situation, Reno was oblivious to the fact that what Raze was doing was actually very impressive. Since he was only a stage 2 warrior, how was he dealing with two at the same time?

'If I get to the top, I might be able to use that ability to shroud a field over the rest. It will make them sick, and then I can get out of here. I just have to get to the top of that Pyramid.'

"Hey, stay close to me and stay behind me; otherwise, you might start to feel a bit ill!" Reno shouted.

Seeing how strong Reno was, Raze listened to him carefully, knowing they were in a tight bind. He did as he was told, staying behind him and looking at his back.

Once he was ready, they were on the move, and as Reno charged forward, there was a glowing green color emanating from his fingertips.

'It's that visual Qi, but just on the outside of his body?' Raze noticed. 'It's the first time I've seen such a thing. To be honest, it almost acts the same way as magic. The Qi looks to have some type of special trait as well.'

With every person that was coming close to the two of them, Reno would waft his hand next to their face or touch their skin. In doing so, they almost fell ill, foamed at the mouth, or just outright fell to the ground in an instant.

From the look of their bodies, it looked like they were poisoned.

'That's it, is that why he told me to stay behind him? Does his Qi have some type of special poison trait?' Raze thought.

For a poison to have that much effect, the Qi had to be incredibly strong, but more so, it had to work in the way it did. Raze imagined that the poison Qi would have to be in his body as well. He couldn't imagine the trouble and the things he must have gone through. His body might even be in pain right now.

Staying behind, they continued to head to the top, and Reno's plan was ready. When they got to the top, he would use a technique that allowed him to cover his Poison Qi in the whole area. With it, the two of them could then escape. As they were on the last few steps, Reno jumped up, and Raze followed. He then turned around while in the air, pulled Raze to the side, and threw him onto the top of the Pyramid.

Meanwhile, he struck the air, leaving a large mass of green visual Qi that hit all of their pursuers and made them fall to the floor. When Reno landed, he could see that Raze had a soft landing and was on top of the large platform, but he soon froze as he saw what was at the top.

"Am I imagining things, or is that guy bad news?" Reno said.

Standing on top of the pillar was a man with white-colored hair to go with his light-colored robes. They were more elegant than any of the others they had met so far, and even the man looked more like he was in his fifties with his facial hair.

Right next to him, though, on the ground, tied up and being held down by several metal chains and balls, was a woman dressed all in black. She had several cuts all over her, was covered in blood, and judging by her body, it looked like she hadn't slept in a few days.

It looked like she was lucky to be alive or was being kept just on the edge for some reason.

"Oh, have a couple of heroes come to save you? I thought someone would have taken the bait! I guess it's time the Light Faction got rid of the Demonic Faction!" The man stated.

Just from looking at him, Reno already knew he was bad news because the man in front of them was a middle-stage warrior.
