Dark Magus Returns-Novel

The specially made mirrors were really impressive, displaying everything on the screen. Not only did they show everything for the viewers to see, but depending on how close they were, they were able to hear what was being said as well.

This was part of the reason why many had support for Brack. They could feel his pain as he was fighting; they could tell that he had something important.

Yet, that still didn't change the outcome; it just made them aware of his reason for fighting. Out of everyone there, Raze had also heard everything as well.

When looking at Brack, talking about the protection of his family, it had reminded him of someone. While watching him desperately fight, with his face disfigured and full of blood, one ncto mind.

'Jake…' Raze thought.

Images flashed in Raze's head, of a particular person who had been by his side, similar to that of Sabrina, and an image flashed back to when he had received a book from Charlotte as well, with the nJake Dove written on it.

'I never had a loving family growing up, I had no idea what that felt like, but I have been loved, and know what it's like to fight for those you care about.'

Raze looked at his hands, and for a moment he saw them both covered in blood. When he looked on the ground, an image of Sabrina. When he blinked, it changed to a man covered in a thick deep green blazer, his eyes weak and looking back at him.

Then when looking at the fight, the situation, it was causing a wave of feelings to cover Raze. At first, Brack seemed just like those in the Behemoth Clan, only caring about power.

However, it was clear there was a reason why Brack needed that power. When Brack returned and heard the news from Sha Mo, it was all the reaction he needed.

Him no longer being in the clan felt like it was the end for him, and more importantly, the end for his family.

In that moment, Raze had reached out his hand, catching him before he fell, and decided to be his lifeline.

'If there was someone back then that could have done this for you as well… maybe you wouldn't have had to go through everything you had.' Raze thought.

"If you need somewhere, then the Crimson Crane are always looking for talented people like you," Raze said.

The words had just left his mouth, words that he wished he could have perhaps said to someone he had called his friend, Jake, in the past. A way to protect him, a place for him to be in.

At that moment, Brack looked up, and for a moment, there was hope in his eyes when he looked at Raze. Maybe his family wouldn't be doomed.

He had heard of the great feat the Crimson Crane were able to produce against the Behemoth Clan. They were in no way small by any means.

If they could protect themselves from the Behemoth Clan, then being part of them would protect him and his family from anyone.

However, there was one person that would get in his way. The floor around Sha Mo's feet was dark red. His visual Qi was seeping out of the ground and creeping his way to Raze.

Before it got within a meter of him, Raze had unleashed his Qi as well out of his body, creating a type of barrier stopping it from getting any closer to him.

The warriors in the room, not just the students, were feeling pretty sick, and that included the Light Faction warrior that was looking after them.

'Is there stype of infighting within the Demonic Faction?' The Light Faction warrior thought. 'Although that is expected due to their nature. It's what makes them so strong at the stime, but what's so hard to believe is how the participating student is standing up to one of the Clan Heads.'

Raze looked up directly at Sha Mo's eyes. This was the person that had tried to kill him twice, just because he simply hadn't gotten his way.

It was safe to say that Raze didn't like this person he saw in front of him. He hated people who forced people into positions after telling them no.

"What do you think you're doing, I have just kicked someone out of my clan, and then you reach out your hand like stype of savior, and in front ofno less." Sha Mo asked.

"Am I not allowed to do so? As you said, he is no longer part of your clan, he and I are free to do as we wish." Raze replied.

"And yet you chose to do it right now, you are playing a foolish game, kid, that could very well get you killed!" As Sha Mo finished his sentence, his Qi power raised and pushed past the barrier Raze had made with his own Qi.

It moved closer to him, but ultimately stopped as a sword was placed down into the ground.

"Do not be foolish, Sha Mo," Lince said, as he held onto the sword calmly. "We are not in the Demonic Faction territory; if you want to act, then do so when we get back, but now is not the right time, and not right now."

"And you, 'Jake.' Do you even have the authority in the first place to do such a thing? Don't give other people false hope if you can't do things yourself; your leader isn't currently here." Lince explained.

Although Alba was with them, she was sitting in the stands. However, Raze was sure Alba would listen to him, now that they were in charge of Flendon town; they did need all the strength they could get.

Still, it was a matter to be resolved for later; for now, Raze had done as he wanted to.

Brack could now firmly stand, having regained sof his energy, and he said a few words as he went to sit down in one of the seats.

"Thanks," Brack said, not looking Raze in the face, and softly.

Sha Mo and Raze exchanged glances for a few moments before Raze decided to move to the other side.

'The leader of the Lost Clan, his power seems strong, and not lesser than that of Sha Mo.' Raze thought. 'He also runs the intelligence unit… from what I have seen, Lince seems to be the person who can be reasoned with the most and one of the most valuable positions in the Demonic Faction.'

"The last match of the first round will now begin! A matchup that many have been waiting for, Liam, against our very own, Hannah!" The announcer mentioned.

Hannah and Liam took to the center of the stage; for the Light Faction, there was a lot riding on this fight since Hannah was the only contestant that was left from the Light Faction.

'Finally, I've been using this system non-stop!' Liam thought. 'Now, it's tfor the world to look at me!'

In the crowd itself, Anna was paying very close attention to the student named Liam.

'I have to confirm in this fight whether he has the system or not. If he does, I need to do everything in my power to get that one-eyed to speak.'
