Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 58 You do magic?

A nine-star mage was the pinnacle of being a mage; they had the power to change and shape nations, and in a way, it sounded a lot like the deity Pagna warriors. With Raze having been one himself, he knew immediately what this was.

'This is... she's using magic, there's no doubt about this'" Raze thought. 'But I thought magic didn't exist in this world? I'm certain it doesn't, yet she is using it right here and now. Wait, let's try to think about this.'

'Before they had sent the rest of the Clan members out, was it because they didn't want them to see what was going to happen? So that means there's a chance that, just like me, these guys are keeping it a secret.'

'I should have known, if there was a way for me to come to this world, then it meant there's a good chance for others to do so as well!'

Now knowing what the situation was, Raze was trying to figure out how to use this information to get out of the pickle he was now in. When mages were fighting against others, it was knowledge and experience that allowed one to win the fight.

'The girl, she's using light magic, and using a skill that allows her to find out the truth,' Raze realized. 'That means she has to be planning to look into my memories!'

If she saw what happened, then everything would be clear, but what Raze was unsure about was just how much of his memories she would see. Would she see the memories of the body that he was in at the moment? If that was the case, he didn't mind so much, but if she was able to see memories beyond that, the memories of the life Raze lived while he was the Dark Magus, there was no chance that she would let him live.

'I can still use magic myself, but if she's a light magic user, it will be very hard to best her with my dark magic.'

It was bad for a mage to just learn one element because one attribute could best another. Dark Magic was strong against Lightning, while Lightning was strong against Light, while Light was strong against Dark.

'There's also that other man to consider as well, if he's in the room, he can most likely use magic as well. I'm not confident I could beat these two, especially with all the other Pagna warriors as well. There's only one way I can get out of this.'

Taking in a big slow breath, Raze had to be ready, he had to be ready for the next outcome because he wasn't sure that this would work.

"Wait!" Raze shouted. "Are you guys, are you from Alterian?"

Immediately, the glow around Charlotte's eyes started to fade. She had yet to use her spell, but her hands were already going down to her side, with her mouth wide open, she could only say a few words. "No way."

"Hahaha, this is splendid!" Himmy said, with a voice and a face full of joy. "It looks like we've managed to solve one of our problems, and they have come right to us."

"Wait, that means you guys are really from Alterian as well. So that really is magic that she was using?" Raze asked.

All of the words that Raze was saying were putting two big smiles on his interrogators' faces, and it looked like he had managed to get out of a tense situation, at least for now.

"This isn't the best situation for us to meet, but it looks like we have no choice. The truth is we have been looking for you," Himmy explained, and he gestured with his hand for them to come forward. He raised his eyebrows towards the door, making Raze even more sure that this was a secret that was not meant to be heard by the ears of others.

Stepping a few steps closer, now each of them were only a couple of meters away from each other. Raze still didn't want to get too close because he had cuffs on and was at a disadvantage. Just because someone was from the same world as him, it didn't make them friends automatically.

Yet, he couldn't help but feel a strange stare from Charlotte's eyes.

"What do you mean you were looking for me, how did you know I was here?" Raze asked.

The book he had used, as far as he knew, was the only one in existence. No mages had discovered a sign of human life, but maybe that was because they had no way to return.

"First, before I answer your question I want to make something clear," Himmy stated. "Everything we are to tell you is to be kept a secret. This is for you and the sake of Pagna itself. Trust me, if word ever gets out about us, then not only will our organization be after you but probably the whole of Pagna."

Raze never had any intention of telling anyone about his magic. After all, it was his advantage over the other warriors that existed in this world, or at least that's what he thought anyway.

"First, I'll answer your question. What you just saw Charlotte use was indeed magic, and it is something that is not used in this world. It comes from the world of Alterian."

"Are you a mage as well?" Charlotte asked with big, wide eyes. "You have to be, right? You're not just from Alterian, you have to be a mage to realize that I was using magic!"

It was clear that Charlotte was overly excited to be meeting someone like her, but why was her reaction so different compared to Himmy's? Maybe it just wasn't an everyday occurrence that they would meet someone from the same world.

"As for me, I'm not a mage, I'm a detective," Himmy said, as he reached into his brown overcoat and pulled out a wallet that folded out, showing a badge with an ID number. It was something that Raze had never seen before.

The badge or wallet didn't help Raze at all either, as they were things he had never seen before.

"I can see the confusion on your face. That's right, you two may be from Alterian, but I'm from a different world altogether."
