Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 1000: The White Haired Demon (Part 1)

chapter 1000: the white haired demon (part 1)



krynic, who was leading the aurora clan, and impress for the dawnblade clan, had laid low after seeing the beast in front of them. seeing how easily it was able to kill the white-furred monkey, they knew taking out the beast itself was going to be a tough task.

the truth was, no matter where they went, they would run into trouble all over the place. so they were just going for the simplest or easiest option. in impress's mind, it was the one that would lead to the least amount of deaths within their fairly large group.

while observing the dangerous beast, though, that was when a particular man appeared. he landed in the center of the open area, which was void of the large trees but still had tall grass and broken branches on the ground.

the beast was off to the side, still munching on the remains of the monkey. the man that stood in the open area appeared out of nowhere. there was almost no noise, no action, no qi felt by impress, and she had almost missed him.

if it wasn't for the fact that the young man had white hair, she might have ignored him altogether.

"there's someone out there, but with that beast, they'll be killed!" was impress's initial thought, until she started to have a good look at the young man in the center.

his appearance wasn't one of their own. it wasn't someone from the light faction. yet, she had a feeling of familiarity when she looked at him.

"are you wondering the same thing as me?" krynic asked, moving from the back of the group over to impress's side. "what is the dark magus doing here?"

it started to click in impress's head. she had seen this man before. it was the dark magus, the student who had taken part in the martial arts tournament from the demonic faction. nearly all of them had been present that day, and his countless performances had burned his image into their heads.

disrupting everything the warriors had solidified over years. so when seeing such a person, it was quite easy to forget about the things that he had done. his legacy was short, but looking at his record, the dark magus was shaping up to have one of the biggest legacies in pagna.

"then, we should stay put," krynic suggested. "the beasts on this island aren't normal. even us top-tier warriors are struggling with them. let him deal with it on his own, and right after, we'll swoop in and take him out."

a worn-out, injured man-either way, with all of them, no matter how strong he was, they should be able to take him out. it was worth the risk to them.

although raze still didn't move, it looked like the beast was ready to act. it turned its head and looked toward raze with its two long heads. one of them was covered in blood due to its sharp teeth.

the heads were moving in a circular motion, as if swirling with the wind, until they opened wide and let out a high-pitched screech. it screamed at the top of its lungs, and both heads moved at the same time.

they were lightning-fast, just like when going against the white-furred monkey. it swung them low, opening its mouths, heading right toward raze.

"i thought beasts had better sense than humans," raze said as he still looked down at the ground. "you should know when you have met someone who's far stronger than you!"

raze turned his head and stared directly at the beast. his eyes were wide open, and he looked straight into the eyes of the beast. in that instant, its mouth stopped along with its heads, dead still.

then, with its large legs, it started to back away.

"what... is going on? the beast-it's not attacking?" krynic asked.
