Dark Magus Returns

Liam was enjoying the little friendly competition that he was having with Simyon in his head. He had a tally of how many more members of the Rygon Religion he had taken out over his partner. In his mind, it made him a stand-out figure, and he would stand out in Safa's eyes.

So when he saw another man wearing orange, he thought it was his time to shine and rushed off after him. He had become incredibly skilled at duplicating and throwing his swords, taking out his opponents, and he had done the same rushing off after Carl.

Liam was so focused that he didn't even have a chance to look at the condition of the cellar or what was in it, and had just thrown the sword out.

'Even though this attack won't kill him, I'll still count it as an accomplishment over Simyon!' Looking deep down, maybe it was the fact that Simyon had done a better job when it came to taking on Sha Mo.

How he had used his body to protect everyone, where his attacks were useless, whereas right now they were working. There was still a smile on his face as he saw the sword pierce through the strange jar and stab Carl in his stomach.

"What is going on in this place?" Simyon asked.

The main thing he noticed weren't just the dead bodies and foul stench, but how fresh two of the bodies were that were in the room, blood was still dripping out of their bodies.

"Charlotte!" Anna called out, as she had finally found her target as well.

Yet it almost felt like it was too late. The strange magical energy that was kept in the jar had spilled onto the ground and touching the magical formation it had activated it.

"ANNA!" Charlotte wanted to scream, but her voice came out weak. How was she meant to tell Anna to stop the formation?

Regardless it didn't matter, Anna was already charging forward.

'I don't know what's happening but it's not good. I wasn't there to help when Himmy needed me. I have regrets that I didn't spend more time with him when I should have. I have so many regrets that I was too focused on my task. When I lost him it was only then that I realized what I lost.

'I was never really close to Charlotte, but if Himmy asked me to save her, I'm worried that I might have that regret again, when she's right in front of me.

Due to her work with Alter, Anna had come across a few magic formations before. Although activated, it didn't seem to be working straight away, and afraid she would get caught up in the spell, instead she positioned her hand opening up her palm.

A red beam was starting to gather and she fired out toward the floor. She was just going to destroy the formation itself.

Before the red beam hit the floor, a strange glowing white orangish energy had come out and hit the beam instead. It was the same attack that she had experienced before above ground, only this one was far stronger.

The moment it met with the red beam of energy it had consumed it completely and pushed back. It then hit Anna's hand and caused it to be flung back with a large burning sensation going through her body.

Before she knew it, she was lifted off her feet as another beam hit her in stomach and she landed on the ground now staring at the ceiling.

The others looked ahead and could see where the attack had come from. It was from the individual who Liam had attacked.

"He seems a lot stronger than the other ones." Simyon gulped, placing his hand on his beads ready to transform his body.

For the Rygon religion member known as Carl looked incredibly different. There was a glow that was surrounding his entire body, the wound that had been made on his stomach had completely disappeared.

Yet the energy was flowing from all over to the point where the pupils in Carl's eyes could no longer be seen, they were completely white and filled with energy.

When Safa used her god eyes, it was blinding in the cellar; the energy was rampant all over the

room.

"So this is it," Carl said looking at his hand. "This is the energy that we pass on to the sun god. For how long have we passed on this power to him, with us only dipping into this nectar now and again.

"If that container contains this much power, then our god must truly be the strongest individual in existence, we have served him well," Carl said with a smile.

"It's the same stuff that was in those small vials, but it seems the container of the stuff has taken over his body completely. He has an immense amount of power," Safa explained. Carl then looked at the formation that Charlotte was in, and he scorned slightly.

'It's running quite slow. Is it because of the lack of sacrifices, is it not enough to call someone? But this time we have a mage, so there is a good chance that more of the person's power can be drawn down.

'I'll need to get rid of them all.'

Liam was ready with his blades, and Simyon had already activated his lighting body. Safa had drawn out her spear, hoping she could draw some of the energy out of Carl, but it was a long shot due to the large amount of energy, and finally, Anna had gotten back up off the ground, looking at the frightened Charlotte who could feel the formation doing something, incomplete but the fear of a ticking time bomb going off at any moment was causing her to panic.

They all lunged toward Carl but with a smile on his face he had pulled out a silver orb in his hand. It lit up, and exploded.

A bright flash filled everyone's eyes but when it hit them they felt no pain. When the flash disappeared though something very odd had occurred.

Simyon's lighting body was no longer working. Safa couldn't feel the energy going through her spear, and for Liam and Anna both of them had received the same messages from their

system.

[Error, Error, System is unavailable.]

"What just happened?" Simyon asked.

"I think... we might have just lost our powers," Liam answered.
