“——I have an idea!”“What?”In a few moments, they exchanged blows with each of their opponents, Magi and Kira regrouped as they stepped back from the fight. Their opponents Toru and the Scissor Twins kept on advancing, preventing them from running away. “Where are you going?”Slowly taking each step forward, Toru would utter as he waved his blade, stretched his arms, and casually gazed at Magi. His eyes were laser-focused on him, cracking his neck as they kept on slowly advancing. “I'll use my Gravity Magic in several ways, but I'll need your help. You have to——”“I already know. Just go.”“——Why did I even ask?”Scoffing at her question, Kira would regret trying to tell him the plan. If he said he already knows, he already knew it. There was no doubt about that.“Hmm... Be on your guard, kids. You don't mess with adults like them.”Toru would see Magi move forward, ahead of Kira as if they had a plan. It was obvious after they talked to each other that even if briefly. “Hmph! S
After the Scissor Twins were left behind after Toru's demise, Magi would begin to wonder where Cian had been after he left with Teresa after she was wounded. Cian promised to come back after he had brought Teresa back to the headquarters, but he was yet to return to the already finished battle. "Where did he—" Just as Magi was to ask, a figure dashing in a flame-like form would arrive, it was Cian in his Phantom Drive. "I'm sorry, I'm late!"He apologized, bowing a bit as he slowly began to realize the results of their battle. He was able to see the defeated twin kneeling before Magi, their eyes drowned out by their own tears. While Toru was nowhere to be seen. "Did you guys—?"Cian would ask as he looked at both of them, and only Magi would nod, affirming his thoughts that Toru had been defeated. "I see."There were no words needed to relay the facts, all he needed was a simple confirmation. "Let's go. Now that the tournament is canceled, all kinds of attacks like this will ha
Magi and Cian made their way through the winding streets of the northern part of the city, their footsteps echoing on the cobblestone. It was a quiet and peaceful part of town, far removed from the chaos and violence that plagued the rest of the city.As they approached the Oracle's house, they could see the overgrown garden and the small, dilapidated building that housed the powerful seer."Are you sure this is the right place?" Cian asked, his voice laced with uncertainty. "It doesn't exactly look like the home of someone who can peer into the future.""That's because she's not like most people," Magi replied, his voice low. "Kyoumi is a powerful and mysterious figure, but she's also known to be unstable and unreliable. We have to be careful when dealing with her."Cian nodded, his expression serious. They had to be careful, but they also needed answers. They couldn't afford to be too cautious.As they approached the door, they could hear the sound of soft chanting coming from insid
—Stopped at the front door, Leonis had arrived in Moonblight, going straight to the house of the oracle. "Yes, I gave them a divination," Kyoumi said, her voice thoughtful. "But I'm afraid I can't share the details with you. Their divination must remain private, for their own safety.""I understand," Leonis said, his voice sincere. "I'm just worried about them. They're my friends, and I want to make sure they're okay. Is there anything you can tell me?"Kyoumi hesitated for a moment before finally sighing. "I can tell you that their past is shrouded in mystery," she said, her voice low. "There is something blocking me from seeing it, something beyond my understanding. It's as if their past is being hidden from view, deliberately."Leonis's brow furrowed at Kyoumi's words. "That's strange," he said, his voice thoughtful. "I've never heard of anything like that before. Do you have any idea what could be causing it?"Kyoumi shook her head. "I don't know," she said, her voiceheavy with
"Our next move would have to be decisive. Right now, we've been able to deal a blow to the Black Skull's roster. They attacked us and ended up losing. Yuuta and Yuuri were sent to Teresa's supervision after they said they didn't want to go back, now that they failed more than twice. Either we wait for them to recover, or we strike now."Days later in the headquarters, the Red Trackers once again took the liberty to regroup. Everyone was present."I know I've been out for some time but isn't this too random? We can't forget that they are allied with the Viper's Venom, not to mention that they hired people from Pandemonium?"Evan would voice his thoughts, finally being able to contribute to the party. He had been busy with the hospital as more injured patients came in, it was certain that it was the organization's doing as they were all contestants in the tournament. "That's exactly why we need to strike now," Magi said, determination in his voice. "We can't let them recover and come
With Clint knocked unconscious, Nel was the only one facing Magi and Cian. However, Magi was beginning to feel his magic feeling ripped out of his body. The residual Ice Magic was still there and was trying to impose the debt of using such an ability.“——Ngh.” He groaned. He could feel his joints being frozen once more. He didn't know that there would be residuals of his former magic, an effect that he had overlooked.“Are you alright? Did he get you?” Cian asked as his voice was laced with worry. “No. Don't mind me. I'll set the portals, you can do your thing. You know how our new style goes.”Holding his chest, Magi would bear with the pain, trying to shake it off. “Just in case you guys are forgetting, I'm not alone.” As the twins conversed, Nel would call out as reinforcement arrived.They were armed with Grants that seemed to be different than the last, with all of them having the same appearance. “——What are those?!” Cian was clueless about those intimidating weapons. They
“Tch. She's not here either!” A man's voice would grunt upon the impact of his sword hitting the bone, his blade cutting through the body of the enemy.Vincent struggled to pull the blade out of the fallen enemy, seething with bloodlust as he looked for the head of it all.[That makes it the third base we have cleared so far. There are always only countless lowly lackeys awaiting us in the next. By now, Rosa could have been alerted of our attacks, we must rush and attack the next! Don't let her escape!]Violet and her sentries relayed the message to everyone as most of her robots were on the ground, defeated, and some had won by chance. It was her countless lifeless machines that became her army, losing nothing but a few parts in exchange for the enemies.“But where the hell are those two——?!” Vincent would flail his sword, whipping out the blood that it was covered in. “On your left.” Magi casually said in the earpiece that had trouble transmitting, cutting off here and there before
Sandworms. Their names might sound harmless, yet it is one of the monsters that live in the desert outside of cities. The Sandworms are fearsome creatures that lurked in the scorching desert sands. With no eyes to guide them, they relied on the vibrations in the ground to navigate their way through the barren wasteland. Their thick, indestructible hides made them immune to almost all forms of magic, allowing them to withstand the extreme temperatures of their environment. They were swift and agile, using their powerful jaws to vacuum up the sand in front of them and propel themselves forward. They were a formidable foe, feared by all who dared to brave the desert.Yet, there was no other than the three who were aware of that."Come on, Magi, don't push yourself!" Sabrine shouted as she swerved the bike, narrowly avoiding the Sandworm's attack. The sand behind them was churned up, the creature's mouth sucking up the grains as it chased after them."I have to try!" Magi shouted back
