Earth's Greatest Magus-Novel



Emery felt as if another ember suddenly lit up in his chest. A familiar one filled with the power of darkness. It was a sensation he had not felt in so long ago he couldn't help but get lost in it.

"Are you giving up already?!" Cyrus shouted when he saw Emery standing still, doing nothing with a blank look on his face. 

Receiving no response, he snorted. "It's really not fun anymore… Let's just end this!"

Saying those words, the Raven faction master cast his spell again. This time, an even more powerful one that summoned a thunderstorm in the sky and manifested half a dozen lightning javelins at the same time.

"Die!"

With a wave of his hand, the six lightning javelins shot down and smashed into Emery from various directions, creating one massive violent blast storm that devastated everything in his surroundings.

KABOOMMM!!!

Cyrus had an evil grin on his face as he watched the area in front of his eyes get completely destroyed without any remains.

It was an attack impossible to dodge and too powerful for a young magus to take head on. 

Because of that, when he sensed there were no longer any traces of spirit energy in the area of explosion, the Raven faction master quickly assumed his opponent was dead with his body completely disintegrating into dust.

However, just as he was about to fly north, he caught something in the corner of his eye and was shocked to see what it was. The young man was still alive and somehow had been hovering behind him.

"W-what?! How!?"

Cyrus gritted his teeth as a thought came to his mind. There was only one thing that could explain what happened.

The power capable of warping physical reality. The Law of Space.

"Space magic!"

On the other hand, Emery was as caught off guard as the Raven faction master by the spell he had just cast. Although it took him a few seconds for him to remember using one of his most reliable spells, he was pleasantly surprised when he succeeded in casting it.

[Blink]

After the initial euphoria of regaining his darkness power again, Emery became even more excited. Now he finally had a way to deal with his opponent. But just as he was about to start, the voice of the Khaos Guardian echoed in his mind again.

<5 minutes. That's all I can lend you the power for>

"Then I better get started!" Emery said as he gathered the surge of Khaos energy rising from within him.

HOWLLL!!!

Emery's figure shot towards Cyrus, who responded by releasing yellow lightning and vanishing from his spot. Expecting such an action, he immediately cast a [Blink] which made him reappear before the Raven faction leader.

Seeing that keeping the distance between them was no longer possible, Cyrus braced himself to receive the pair of claws headed his way. On the other hand, Emery went full on the offensive knowing he was now the one holding the initiative.

Combined with his [Light Wing], his figure flickered and maneuvered freely in the sky as he attacked with his claws from angles he normally couldn't do, suppressing and preventing the Raven faction master from throwing any more javelin.

It might be a simple low-tier space magic, but as Emery got used to the power of Khaos again, he managed to cast the [Blink] spell continuously at a much faster speed. It gave him such incredible mobility, allowing him to carry out attacks so erratic that the Full Moon magus couldn't even fathom how to deal with them.

Several flesh wounds appeared on the body as Cyrus was unable to dodge Emery's attack even with his extreme speed. He was completely overwhelmed.

His experience told him this was a lost fight and it was time for him to flee. However, the thought of running away from such a young magus and the consequences that would lead to the destruction of his faction clouded his rational thinking, skewing his judgment.

With that, Cyrus decided to cast one final lightning spell. One that engulfed him with powerful lightning that was close to the creation of a domain.

[Thunderstorm Descent]

This time, Cyrus no longer opted to attack from a distance. He brought his hands together and channeled all of his strength, creating a familiar massive crackling blade that soared into the clouds.

Seeing the same technique the man used to defeat the Karat swordsman, Emery was not so foolish as to fight him head-on. Instead, he mustered the surging Khaos power and funneled it into one specific spell.

A spatial distortion was created right in front of him as Emery shouted in excitement.

"Aegis of Void!" 

KABOOMMM!!!

The blade descended down and created the biggest explosion that blew away the clouds in the area. But when the explosion died down, Emery's figure was still there, looking completely unscathed.

The barrier formed by Khaos' power was more than enough to withstand most of the power of Cyrus' attack, leaving Emery at full power to counter attack, which he did by landing a strike containing all of his strength on his body.

Blood splattered into the air as a silvery half-blood wolf could be seen piercing its six blades into the Full Moon magus' chest. The blow finally consumed all of his opponent's strength and ended the battle.

A few minutes later, on the outskirts of the Terra Kingdom.

Tessa Karat was anxious. 

Even though she had reached the city, she sensed several powerful figures chasing after her. She couldn't help but think about the fate of the man she had left to escape. However, as soon as she saw who they were, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Emery landed on the ground carrying Armand on his shoulders, a large man followed right behind him. She was shocked to see the master of the Raven faction, Cyrus, completely restrained with anti-magic chains on both of his arms.

"I brought the man. You can do whatever you want with him."

Tessa's face was filled with both confusion and awe at how the scene before her eyes could possibly have happened.

"Cyrus Raven, I will take him to Golden City. He will receive judgment there."

However, the captive man laughed as he said, "Don't think you have won yet. Tell me, how are you going to get me there now that my men already took control of this shit town," glancing towards the nearby Terra City.

Those words made Emery enter the city in a haste. He could quickly confirm that there were indeed traces of battle taking place in the area. 

The streets were filled with blood and many of Terra's citizens looked frightened.

He could also feel the battle was still going on, but it was concentrated in the city center.

"Hahahha like I said, you better let me go or my people will burn this city into nothingness," Cyrus said, enjoying what he was seeing. But then, his words abruptly stopped when he saw a mountain of corpses on the street ahead, all dressed in dark blue uniforms, with only a dozen or so left alive, kneeling in front of an armored arm holding a huge glaive.

"No! …how…"

Noticing their arrival, the man casually walked up to Emery and the other.

"Are you here with these people?"
