Chapter 871: The Strongest Unknown Clan
There were even a few Pagna wanderers that had just come for a visit who were willing to help. Knowing the severity of the situation, the brave warriors decided that they needed to do what they could to try and get the students out of the academy.
Heading right through the large open front door, they finally entered the courtyard. Skyler, with around thirty helpers, had entered, and they had immediately stopped.
Skyler looked up ahead where he caught eyes with Zon in the distance; as for everyone else, they were looking at the mess of the courtyard.
Blood was smeared across the ground, and some students were clearly crawling for the exit but hadn\'t made it. There were so many young people that had been killed.
"Come on, we have to work quickly!" the old man physician said. "We have to focus on those that can be saved first. After that, we can figure out what to do with the others. In this situation, it\'s important-every second counts!"
The helpers agreed and quickly rushed off in different directions, trying to find which students they could help. It didn\'t take them long to discover that there was an even greater mess inside the academy buildings.
The unfortunate problem that the physicians were finding was that there were so few that could be helped. Each person they did find was a celebration.
Bandages were used, and herbs were delivered. The warriors were clearing out the Red Headband building, which had the fewest number of students, and were using it as a place of treatment.
All the students that were being treated were being held up in one place. As things were working out, that was when Skyler looked at Zon.
He rushed forward.
"Zon, is everything alright? Is the enemy still here? Is there something we need to look out for, or that I should warn the others?"
In the middle of Skyler\'s run, Zon, who was standing out on the courtyard, had suddenly disappeared. He just vanished right in front of his eyes.
Skyler\'s footsteps had stopped for a moment.
"Where did he go?" Skyler mumbled to himself.
"The person responsible for all of this has been dealt with," Zon said.
Skyler turned around, and Zon was right behind him. It was strange; he knew Zon could do impressive things and was an incredibly strong fighter, but to move like that, to move so fast...
No, it didn\'t seem like Zon had moved at all in Skyler\'s eyes, almost as if he had instantly appeared behind him.
"The device seems easy enough to use; it could benefit me greatly," Zon said to himself. "He was dealt with, so it\'s over, this horror is over?" Skyler said as he looked at the entire situation, wondering just who or what could have done all of this-more importantly, why. "How did this even happen? Wasn\'t the Dark Magus meant to be at the academy? Why did it get like this?" Skyler asked, angry.
In some ways, he looked up to the Dark Magus. That was why he had come to the academy, to challenge him. A new leader, a new start. Yet, he wasn\'t even able to protect the students of all people in the academy, and in the end, Zon was the one that had to protect them.
"The Dark Magus was here; this was an enemy that no one was able to handle properly," Zon said. "He is not the one to be blamed. After I arrived, he has gone on an important task."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"The ones that you should be blaming and directing your anger towards are those that sent these people in the first place. Besides..."
Zon stopped himself from going further. He didn\'t want to tell Skyler that those they had fought in the shop that day, it was because of their actions that the Deleter was sent from Alter, and the deaths were partly their fault.
Skyler was still filled with anger, with the sight in front of him. He had already been through the academy, and he couldn\'t even imagine what it would be like if a situation like this had occurred while he was at the academy.
"Sir, mister, we would like to say thank you!"
"Yes, sir, thank you so much for getting rid of that guy!"
Skyler turned around to look at the voices, and that\'s when he could see around twenty to thirty students who had rushed over that were perfectly fine.
The students were the ones that had been hiding behind the flooring, which they were using for cover. Those that were with Amir, who had headed back into the academy to call on more help from the other teachers for the entire situation at hand.
"Yeah, I thought we were all goners... I thought nothing could stop him and those strange powers and everything."
Some of the students were teary-eyed, some felt exhausted as the adrenaline that was running through their bodies was starting to disappear.
"How were you able to beat that guy? What Clan are you from?"
"Yeah, tell us what clan you\'re from. I\'m sure our parents would be appreciative and would love to hand you some gifts!"
The students were also wondering for themselves. They did wish to get stronger, and seeing what Zon had done, maybe there was a chance to help them grow so they wouldn\'t be in the same fearful situation as they were in this time.
The question that had been asked, Skyler was curious about it as well, so he leaned in, hoping to find out an answer.
\'Maybe I\'ll learn the secret to his strength!\'
"What Clan?" Zon repeated. "I\'m not from any clan; I\'m a chef at the Perfect Noodle shop." The expression on everyone\'s face dropped. What did Zon even mean by saying he was a chef?
In the Demonic Faction, in a particular cave, sparks ignited, and appearing in the area from the ground, Raze had finally made it.
As he stood up in the cave, he placed his hand on his chest.
\'My mana heart... it\'s reacting... and my ring as well...\'
Raze remembered the moments before teleporting to the Demonic Faction. Due to all the deaths that had occurred from the students, even though he wasn\'t responsible for them, for some reason, the strange Dark Magic energy had all formed, and with it, it had entered into Raze\'s mana heart.
His Dark Magic had grown, and it was still pulsating through his body.
"I have to go to Flendon!"
