Dark Magus Returns-Novel

Unlike before, Raze didn't go out every day in search of trying to get to the bottom of his case. A lot of thad passed, and Ibarin's position as the Principal of the Academy just got cemented more and more.

Raze had kept up with all of the news of the academy at least, and big changes were happening to the academy and himself as mages were getting recognized more and more for their power.

More focus was being placed at the academy. The reason why Raze didn't step out of the doors was in case he would go mad trying to search for something again, he was afraid that maybe he would act out, and use his magic to harm others for the sake of his goal.

Yet today was just one of those days, a report with Ibarin conducting an interview had con, and in order to clear his mind, he had decided to step into the outside world.

It was a sunny day, the skies were clear blue with few clouds in sight. For a moment, Raze had to cover his eyes, he had been cooped up inside for such a long tthat it startled him.

Beginning his walk down the street, he had his hood up over his head. With his hood down, not as many people would recognize him anymore.

Since he hadn't been in the news or was an important figure in the TV scene for long anyway, not many would remember what he looked like.

For him though, it had beca habit, and it was as if he was hiding from everything, a protective wall to avoid all the problems.

As he walked down the street, he looked at people talking in the coffee shops, groups huddled together glancing at him and whispering words to each other.

'Are they talking about me… did they recognize who I was… but it wasn't me, I didn't do it… I didn't do it, I was set up!' Raze thought in his head.

The images of those talking around, they were turning dark, smiles on their faces as they surrounded, pointing and laughing at him.

Quickly, Raze needed to quicken his pace as he got out of the busy city area, and went over to a more quiet part of the city.

A local park built in the center of a building. It was gated, allowing him to go inside he could see people playing with their pets, and sitting on the benches.

'It's still hard forto go outside.' Raze thought as he took in a few deep breaths.

Another reason why he didn't go out as much was because of this. Raze couldn't hear the others but his mind would go rampant with thoughts.

He assumed the worst, assumed what they would think about him, and what they were talking about. Even if he was able to apply for a job, his heart would race and he could get far too tensed up thinking about what they would think about.

Walking forward, Raze had found an empty bench and decided to take a seat. It lit up slightly when he sat down and a cooling effect was emitted from the bench.

It was filled with magic, cooling him on the summer day. For a moment he felt a little at peace, but it was only for these few moments.

"Hey, did you hear what happened today, they found a person practicing Dark Magic!"

"I did hear! They say two officers were killed, and they were 3-star mages as well!"

Not too far from where Raze was, he could see a group of teenagers talking to one another. They were sitting in the grass discussing the latest news.

Since he could hear what they were talking about, he didn't get the sfeeling as before, but Raze didn't dare look their way, and just continued listening to their conversation.

"Yeah, I heard that the mage wasn't that strong, yet he managed to fend off a police squad, is it because he was using Dark Magic?"

The conversation continued between the kids, and Raze was listening to it in and out.

He knew the answer because Dark Magic was taboo, not even talented mages knew of its capabilities or how to handle it.

Essentially those who practiced Dark Magic had the upper hand because other mages didn't know what the spells were capable of.

A lot of mage battles, one needed research into the magic and prior battles. Even himself hadn't researched a lot into Dark Magic.

'I wonder if I was to go against a Dark Mage, what I would do to battle against one.' Raze started to think, trying to keep his mind occupied off of things.

Although he was a pacifist when it cto using magic to battle, he still didn't let that stop his imagination. Just like a kid after watching their favorite battle shows.

After looking into things the other day, Sabrina had made a call to her team, asking if she could visit one of the warehouses they made deliveries to.

The warehouse in question belonged to Idore. It wasn't exactly her department but she was in a high enough position to request going along with one of the teams.

They were visiting, hoping to talk about a trade of crafted items to be embedded into the clothing to make them more powerful.

Things like buttons, markings, and so on. Right now, she was in the warehouse that was busy moving a number of products and was heading out to the team.

"Sabrina, are you coming? I thought you were interested in the talks," one of the other team heads asked.

With that, Sabrina was now on her own in the warehouse. Here she could see by the doors there were talented mages that were standing there.

High-level mages that didn't look like typical workers. Then there were regular workers and magic workers helping with the movement of equipment.

'Well, if I was to take a guess at where somewhere like this would hide something, then it would have to be….'

Looking around she could see one door that didn't lead to the outside, and two guards were standing there.

Not a single person moved in and out.

While blending in by looking around with her head, she moved closer to the two guards that were keeping an eye on her.

As she got close, she cast a spell, whipping her finger away. The Light Magic entered both of their eyes and they soon started to feel sleepy, almost instantly.

'I'm a talented 7-star mage, my magic can get through most of the others as my mana overwhelms them.'

Quickly with a little bit of Ice Magic she froze their feet and part of their back to make them appear as if they were still standing guard.

Right after that, she placed her ear against the wall. She couldn't hear others on the other side and gave it a slight push.

Entering through the door, she closed it behind her, and continued to look in the place.

It was a separate room filled with wooden crates. There were no markings on the crates as for what the items were.

"Why would they separate these items from the others?" Sabrina thought.

Walking over, she went to the wooden crate and propped open the top, pushing the lid slightly off, and she could soon see what was inside. She didn't even have to touch the items.

She could tell, it was illegal magic inhaling items, and there were hundreds of them.

'Raze was right…' Sabrina thought. 'If I can just get the police to chere, and we can get the people involved, this will clear him of all the crimes they accused him of.'

'We might not be able to link it to Ibarin, but we can at least clear his name.'

Not wanting to do more, she placed the lid back on, trying to make it appear as if she had never been here. After all, she didn't want to be found out and then they clear the place before they were even able to run an investigation.

Turning around though, she crashed right into someone.

"What.." Were the only words that cout of Sabrina's mouth.

"You are not meant to be in here," the voice said.

'How did I not sense him, I was using magic the whole time… and why is he here… why is Idore himself in this Warehouse!' Sabrina thought.
