Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 920  A Fleet Of Ships

The crowd on the shore watched as the large ship sank to the bottom of the lake. It was an unusual sight for them for a few reasons.

For one, battles between kingdoms over territories and such were not something they would usually see unless the fighting had reached the city.

The pact with the warriors had somewhat protected people twofold, as the constant wars that would happen between different kingdoms and empires had pretty much come to a stop as well.

If anything, it always seemed like the kingdoms and the Empire in the Light Faction were trying their best to get on the good side of the Pagna warriors.

These large, monstrous ships that could fire cannons, destroying houses, seemed unstoppable, a feat of human intelligence, yet they had been destroyed just like that—and by their own attack.

"Yeah!" A single man from the crowd cheered at the top of his lungs, saliva dripping from the bottom of his mouth. "With the Dark Magus, no one can mess with us, bitch!"

The crowd on the shore continued to shout, even louder than before, and the insults and words were heard by the other ships.

On the ships themselves, General Re was in shock.

"What just happened? What attacked us? Does the town of Flendon have some type of technology that we're not aware of yet?" General Re asked.

"We're not sure, but the Dark Magus seems to be on the shore. He might be the one behind it!" one of the other men shouted.

"Since they've attacked back, we have no choice. Fire a barrage on the shore! We'll get rid of every single one of them!" General Re ordered.

The men on all the ships had a spark lit in their bellies. They quickly moved, loading the cannons and aiming them perfectly. Then, on each ship, as a hand signal was waved down, several explosive sounds went off one after the other.

Now, not just one large mass of a black ball was coming towards them, but several were seen in the air.

The people who saw this grew slightly worried as they went silent until they saw the Dark Magus float up into the air. The Ghost blade was ready in his hand, placed to his side.

Dark magic swirled around Raze's body, coming out fiercely and wrapping around his entire form until it surrounded the sword and condensed it until it was completely black in color.

"Eclipse Strike!" Raze shouted, swinging his sword vertically.

With Raze's new added Qi power, his increased strength in magic, and his Dark magic's affinity increasing by an incredible amount, the released attack looked as if another sea of darkness had appeared. It spread across all the cannonballs, covering them completely.

The strike continued to travel, disappearing just short of the fleet of ships in the distance. As the attack dissipated into nothing but energy, no cannonballs were seen any longer.

General Re, seeing Raze floating in the air, having performed such a strike, trembled with disbelief.

"It can't be, right? Can it? Were the rumors about him true?"

Raze quickly moved at that moment, and as he flew across the water, part of the lake could be seen splitting slightly apart.

When Raze got close to one of the ships, he swung his sword down.

"Crimson Slash!"

A large red line of Qi and Wind magic was unleashed, cutting the large ship directly in half. It began to sink in the middle as the crew members were thrown into the sea.

Immediately after, Raze rose up, and a mass of Dark magic, a black ball, formed in his hand. He hurled it towards another ship. As it reached its target, the black ball of magic expanded out.

Everything it touched disappeared, including some of the people on board. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

There was too much panic, and the people were unable to strike Raze as he moved too fast. With sword strikes and Dark magic, he was destroying the fleet of ships with ease.

Then, Raze flew up, his hand pointed at the ship General Re was on.

"What… have we done… we've all made a grave mistake," General Re muttered as he saw nothing but darkness. It was the last thing he saw.

Back on the shore, the people of Flendon were witnessing the power themselves. While the brothers stood there, watching in awe.

"Are you going to stop him?" Fing asked.

As they watched, they saw ship after ship sink. In a panic, some of the ships fired their cannons, but they hit nothing, and some had even hit each other.

It was quite clear that the fleet was hopeless in this situation.

"I think it might be a little too late for that," Han replied. "I'm sure, though, Father will like him. He's just like Father in a lot of ways."

Out in the dried, hardened wasteland, Alba and the others had rushed out from the town. They had done so with the intention of meeting the large army heading their way. They wanted to meet them before they reached the town.

It didn't take long, and they could finally see the large group up ahead, around 40,000 troops, as a large chunk of them had broken off, heading in a different direction.

The group stopped around a hundred meters away, and the king stopped with his men as well.

"Okay, remember everyone, we're here to just talk to them," Rayna said. "We need to do whatever we can to convince them not to attack and to head back. Whatever we do, we can't get into a fight with them!" Rayna said, and the others nodded in agreement.

——

Back at the lake, the fighting had come to an end. The large crowd that feared what was going to happen to them, were silent, as there was no longer anything for them to shout about.

Fing and Han watched as Raze flew back towards the shore. Behind him, the entire fleet of ships sent by the Doclet Kingdom had been destroyed.
