Chapter 481 Fight For Yourself

With everything that had occurred, all of the second-year students that belonged to the Red Headband group were allowed to return. This was thanks to Amir’s convincing words to Murkel.

No one quite knew what he had said that day, but he had managed to calm down the principal into making a decision. Not only that, the students were only asked very simple questions about the events that had occurred, and they weren’t really probing either.

The students themselves didn’t want to ask about it because it felt like they had gotten away with murder for the situation they were in.

Although it wasn’t all bells and whistles for the group. The second years were to stay in the main academy. They weren’t allowed to interact with any of the other students or teachers other than those that had been assigned to them in the main academy.

They also weren’t allowed to leave but would still be given regular training. Rather than like students, they felt like prisoners.

As for the area they would train in, it was an area of the academy they hadn’t been in before. Little did they know that the academy had more than one area that was filled with beasts for the students to take part in assessments in.

An area similar to the one located at the back of the academy that led to the land of flog. There were also two more areas to the side that had a forest filled with the same type of beasts.

These were smaller, and apparently were a place where the teachers themselves would use to train if they were learning techniques. The openness of the area was ideal for them, since there was less risk of them damaging things than in the actual academy itself.

Currently, the second-year students were training away, but they had split up because they all had their own individuals that were helping them, things that Murkel the principal was aware of.

He believed that the only person that was currently training the students was the Vice-principal. With the principal being the head of a clan, he was busy with a number of other matters and even had to leave the academy from time to time, so things were left to the Vice-principal, which allowed him to do some things.

In the forest, in one open area, Gunther was present. He had both of his swords out filled with Qi, and looking ahead of him, he was staring at his opponent who was huffing and panting and had parts of his clothes ripped up.

“You would have died four times already if I was taking this seriously, you need to fight as if your life is on the line because it is on the line,” Gunther said.

“Are you just trying to piss me off more!” Mada shouted back. “You don’t say this crap when Ricktor is fighting against you.”

Currently sitting on the ground and cultivating was Ricktor. He was taking a break.

“That’s because you and him are two different people, and the way you two fight is different, the only thing you two have in common is that you’re young masters with the privilege of being one, so shut up and fight!” Gunther claimed.

The two main disciples had been training with Gunther, who had been pushing them more than he would have done if they were any other students. Coming from the same place as them being a main disciple, he thought he was best to guide them.

In the same forest, in another area, there were three Red Headband students standing next to each other, Tinson, Violet, and Joe. These three were listening intently as they stared at their teacher wearing a black mask covering the bottom part of his face.

“The fighting that I will be teaching you might not seem the strongest, but I assure you, in every clan, it has its uses. You are lucky in a way that you are from the Dark Faction because although I am a wanderer, my skills are most suited to those that have the morals of the Dark Faction,” Cronker explained from the Crimson Crane.

He had remained absent from the fight with the principal because he had quickly analyzed that his assassination-type skills would be useless in the particular situation. With everything going on, he was sure that the Crimson Crane were safe but would have difficulties meeting him.

So in the meantime, he wanted to do his part. These three students had been neglected compared to the rest because they weren’t as strong as the others. It had reminded Cronker a bit of his past, so he took them under his wing for now, teaching them the same techniques and skills that he knew.

Lastly, in the forest, there was the final group. Amir was standing there in the center, there appeared to be no one around him apart from the trees in his sight. That’s when the first rustling could be heard, and Safa had come out from the bushes and charged at full strength with her spear.

She shoved it forward, and Amir had avoided the strike by lifting his leg up in the air. As he threw it down, though, the large leg had hit something solid, and it wasn’t Safa. Instead, Simyon was there with his two hands held up, his feet digging into the ground, and he was baring his teeth as he took on the large leg had hit something solid, and it wasn’t Safa. Instead, Simyon was there with his two hands held up, his feet digging pain.

Safa went to strike again as she shoved her spear forward towards his stomach. It looked as if a large amount of Qi was about to emerge from him, but that was when a blade could be seen floating in the air.

Grabbing onto the blade and swinging both swords, Liam was there and had gone to strike right at the back of Amir’s head.

Moving his leg off from Simyon, he lifted his other leg and performed a sweeping kick in the air. Its strength had hit Safa’s spear, and it had crashed into Liam’s blade, at least he thought it had.

Although his leg had hit the blade, it had hit nothing but the blade, and instead with the other sword, Liam had quickly done a first strike swiping his blade right across the Vice-principal’s stomach, it was a clean hit.

The first one that they had managed after the fight. Thankfully, Amir’s Qi was still far stronger, and was able to block the hit.

“That was good,” Amir commented. “I think that is the first hit you have successfully landed. Your teamwork is great, and Liam, you have improved immensely each time we go through this. Now, instead of working together, you will need to try and improve your individual strength.”

Before going on one by one though, Safa had a question on her mind. “About Raze…”

Before she could say anything else, Amir interrupted her. “I have told you not to mention that name. I already assume he is alive; when you will meet him again I do not know, but all of you have to rely on your own strength.”

Safa seemed a little down by this, but that’s when Simyon thought he could ask a question, one that wasn’t about Raze.

“And Dame… did you ever manage to find his body?” Simyon asked.

Amir shook his head to that one. “There was no trace of him whatsoever; it appears the principal’s Qi had gotten rid of him completely. It is best if you think of him as dead.”
Chapter 482 It’s Impossible, The Dark Magus Is Dead?

Inside the tunnel, crystals were lodged into the side of the wall lighting up the area. The cave was wide, allowing for a large number of people as well as supplies to go through the area.

What somewhat came as a surprise was it didn’t include the watch of guards or those belonging to one family or the other. Inside there were only those travelling, making it act more like a neutral zone more than anything.

The Alter group were peacefully making their way through the area, somewhat looking back at what had just happened.

“My heart felt like it was going to jump out of my throat.” Tanya held her chest. “We already had a number of worries, with the weapons we were carrying and being outsiders, and I don’t know if you noticed but he looked at our emblems a lot longer than the others.”

“I did notice that.” Marcus said, holding up the emblem himself. He had seen the real thing a few times, but to his eye he couldn’t tell the difference. “Whatever the reason, whether these are real or fake, they let us through, and we aren’t planning to return to the place.”

“You’re going to say no next time right?” Ponyo asked. “I mean, I understand why we had to agree this time, but we’ve kind of done our service. In the first place, I use Dark Qi, so I was always worried every time I fought.”

“They should think about it a bit more. When they do these things, we have been sent away so we’ve done our duty, a new team can deal with the Demonic Faction if need be.”

That’s when Marcus turned to look at Raze who was trodding along the back, walking with Barlan, although the two of them had been silent, not saying anything.

In Raze’s head he was making several plans, of how things could go once he reached the Lethal Bite Clan base, and what would happen onward from there when he was passed on from there.

“Unfortunately for you, we are just escorting you.” Marcus claimed. “Who knows, maybe Himmy and the rest of your group will be called to head to the Demonic Faction, so even though you have been here, you might have to return.”

“I thank you for helping me out, when the time comes, then I will deal with the situation.” Raze answered politely and shortly.

He was quite pleased that his time was coming to an end with the current group. Further, the matter where they had their disagreements, Raze felt like it was only a matter of time until they found out his identity, or that he would have a clash with them, and the time wasn’t right.

He hadn’t gained new found strength, learned about Alter, or gained more items either.

Barlan raised his hand and clicked his fingers, when he did there was no sound heard. Raze knew what this meant immediately, he had used the silence spell and now wanted to speak to him without the others hearing.

“I wanted to talk to you about the pills that you had given me.” Barlan explained. “They might have saved me back there, and saved a lot of people because of their power, but you never mentioned to me about a drawback when using them.”

“I didn’t?” Raze replied. He honestly wasn’t expecting Barlan to be using them so soon, and if he told him the effects he just thought that maybe there would be more questions he needed to answer.

“You’re quite the trouble maker aren’t you. Anyway, I wanted to warn you about these pills. You see, the drawback, I don’t know if you know, but most potions that are created don’t have a drawback.”

“They just do what is intended to do with the materials that have been used. Enough power is drawn from them, but this isn’t the case when items or portions are enchanted with Dark Magic.”

“We were informed of this by Enaxx. If that is the case it means the pills that you handed me are cursed pills. Now these ones aren’t so much of a problem, but you never know what items will be a problem.”

“If you can help it, I would avoid items that are made by the Dark Magus.”

“These items are made by the Dark Magus?” Raze asked while turning his head away. He was afraid he might be making an expression that he couldn’t hide. He could feel the corner of his cheeks rising a bit.

“Yeah, I mean the Alchemist Dark Magus in Pagna, with the markings and stuff, I put two and two together, and I have a suspicion that it might be the actual Dark Magus as well.”

“Really!” Raze asked with his voice, and his head still pointed away, trying not to make eye contact.

“It sounds like you’re holding in your laughter a bit.” Barlan complained, sounding a bit annoyed. “Think about it, it’s not outside the realm of possibility. Mages come here from Alterian all the time, and what if the Dark Magus came here?”

“He might be selling his cursed pills to try and make a move and take over all of Pagna, if that is the case, then I have to report this to Alter as soon as possible.”

Taking in a deep breath, Raze needed to calm himself, it was hard to hear someone talking about himself when he was that person and was really right there, but the last line by Barlan he needed to avoid that.

“There is one hole in your idea though.” Raze said, facing him this time. “You probably don’t know this, because you came here a lot earlier than I, but just before I came here there was news, the Dark Magus is dead.”

Instantly, Barlan had stopped in his footsteps and was just staring ahead. It was words that he couldn’t believe. He was part of the Glory Guild. Him along with Enaxx were given the task to take out the Dark Magus.

At some point, Barlan thought he might be able to return, and in doing so he could help them take out the Dark Magus.

“You can’t be serious, how did it happen, who was responsible for taking out the Dark Magus, which of the Grand Magus did it.” Barlan asked.

Raze had continued to walk up ahead trying to catch up with the gorup as he gave his answer.

“It was all of the Grand Magus. It was stated that they were all there that day, to face a single target, and they had successfully defeated him together.” Raze answered.

Since he hadn’t heard the reports himself, and only knew that he was here and not in Alterian, he had to make something up that he thought they would report. It was the truth that all five were there, but the Grand Magus would never report the fact that Raze had killed himself.

“I see, I guess that’s the only way they could take out such a foe. Regardless, I think you should still be careful of the pills and this person. It could be someone following in his footsteps who has been sent here.” Barlan informed.

After finishing their conversation, they continued through the cave, and could finally see the bright light at the end of the tunnel, shining in their eyes.

“It’s time.” Raze said.
Chapter 483 From One To Another

Exiting from the other side, the group along with several others had a far easier time compared to when trying to leave the Demonic Faction. All of those that had come from the Demonic Faction would be sent towards the left side.

Here they had entered a grand building where a group of people would have to wait for a while. The building itself was a structure that was amazing for one’s eyes. The flooring was made of a special type of marble while having carvings on the floor of several different names.

To the left and right, there were large paned colored windows. They could see the outside and the general public walking through the street, but due to the colored windows, it looked different.

On top of that, even the ceiling was impressive, having large paintings that covered it from end to end. The paintings themselves mostly looked like battles. There was often one person going up against many.

Inside the building, there were large benches where one could wait before they were allowed to leave the room. Around him, there were multiple members of the Lethal Bite Clan.

They had the same Pagna clothing as most, but rather than having their sleeves go up to their wrists, they were cut slightly short, between the elbow and wrist, coming halfway down the forearm.

‘It’s good, I walked past a few of the members, and it appears as if none of them noticed what I looked like. At the first assessment event, there was only the Lethal Bite Clan head that was there as well as some merchants.’

“I still have to be careful, but in terms of just the Lethal Bite Clan members, I don’t have to worry so much.”

A few basic questions were asked, but it all seemed more like a following of a procedure. For two factions going against each other. They seemed to have trust in the other side doing the necessary checks.

If anything, it more so looked like they were just keeping a tally of how many people were entering and leaving. What Raze did notice though was, just like the Demonic Faction, the Dark Faction was strict before sending people off to the other side as well.

“We hope you all enjoy your time here at the Dark Faction, and stay out of trouble,” one of the men said at the front as he pushed open the two large arching doors.

For the second time, light had beamed in their faces as they had a first look into the city, that was where the base of one of the top clans in the Dark Faction belonged to.

Immediately, Raze was quite impressed by the architecture he could see. It was more similar to the last city but did have a different feeling to it.

Most of the floor was paved with smaller individual stones on the ground, and they had wide winding spaces for one to walk. Most of the structures were a type of beige color, and close to one another.

Once in a while, a large structure could be seen with statues that had been carved in the front of them along with pillars, but what stood out above the city entirely was that in the distance there was a sight that could be seen no matter where in the city one was.

‘Is that the Lethal Bite Clan base?’ Raze thought.

Almost like a pyramid in the center of the city, there were large staircases that led up to a site that was taller than any of the surrounding buildings. Just like the other larger structures, this too had grand giant pillars in front of it, and the space of the room inside, one could only imagine.

It reminded Raze of the academy in a way, if it was up high and floating in the air.

“Will you look at that!” Marcus said with a noticed face and his arms wide open. “It looks like you were waiting for us. Where are the flowers?”

Marcus had seen a particular individual who could be spotted out a good distance away due to the large hat and his trench coat, and by his side wearing a beret hat was the one that would always follow the large man.

Himmy and Charlotte.

“You know flowers are more difficult to get here,” Himmy replied back. “I am happy to see that you are here.”

“Happy to see that I’m here, or happy to see that we helped out your squad member!” Marcus claimed, as he looked toward Raze.

Stepping forward, Raze could confirm that this was indeed Himmy and Charlotte. It had taken him longer than he had thought, but he was back in the Dark Faction, and he was now with Alter.

“Look, you owe me one for this,” Marcus said.

“Why? Did he cause you any trouble?” Charlotte asked. “I thought you were heading back anyway, so taking one extra with you shouldn’t be considered a favor, right.”

Marcus was wondering how to handle that because Raze didn’t really bring any trouble, nearly everything they would have had to face either way. Apart from a particular incident.

“You owe me one,” Marcus just said, looking at Himmy again. “It was nice being with you kid; you are a little green behind the ears but after a few months with the group, I’m interested in seeing what you will become.”

It was time for the two groups to split up, and before that Raze wanted to say a couple of words to the others. First, he had approached Barlan.

“You are a righteous mage who has his own morals; I hope you stick to it,” Raze said.

Barlan gave a nod in response.

“Right now, you are a master of the water element; I suggest you learn the lightning element as well, and learn a few combination spells, if you combine the two together, you will be ahead of most mages you will come across.”

Before Barlan could even say anything, a little offended that someone younger than him had given him advice, Raze had moved on to Shing.

“Thank you for what you did for me. If there is something you need from me in the future, I will be happy to help you.”

Shing responded with a smile, and with that, the two groups parted ways, waving at each other. Marcus and his group weren’t going to spend time in the city as they needed to head to the Alter base to give a report.

Whether Barlan would report his suspicions or not, Raze was unsure, but he had done all he could from his end, and in the first place, he wanted people to be aware of his name. He just didn’t expect to have another problem other than Alter and the Grand Magus to worry about so soon.

After the other two had disappeared, Charlotte and Himmy started to walk off, and appeared to be heading down the streets to a certain location.

“Raze, I never expected to visit you here of all places!” Charlotte said, her voice relatively cheery. “But for you to end up in the Demonic Faction, crazy things must have happened, right.”

“Right,” Himmy added. “Let’s skip all the small talk; why don’t you explain to us how this all happened, how did you end up in the Demonic Faction, and why aren’t you at the academy?”
Chapter 484 The First Mission Of Alter

Planning had been occupying Raze’s mind for a while now. He was constantly thinking about the next step, so he was pretty prepared for Himmy to ask this question. If anything, if the question wasn’t asked about how he ended up in the Demonic Faction, then he would have found it even stranger.

“There was an incident at the academy,” Raze answered.

“No, shit, Sherlock,” Himmy commented as he lifted his hand to his mouth and pulled out a small brown stick. There was nothing on the stick itself nor at either end, but Raze had seen him do this a few times. Now he just had a prop in his hand instead.

“Stop using phrases that no one understands,” Charlotte complained, giving Himmy a small kick on his shin that must have still hurt, but Himmy acted as if it did nothing. “What he means is, we can see that you’re not at the academy, so what exactly had occurred?”

“There was an assessment,” Raze answered, one where they placed students underground to fight against each other. They gave us no food, no water, and made us kill each other, and some students were so hungry they resorted to eating each other.”

“I was in a situation where it was life or death, so I used my magic to try and get out of there. In doing so, I ended up in the Demonic Faction, and I was stuck there. The item you gave me, belonging to Alter, I had used that and got in contact with the other Alter team belonging to Marcus, and that’s how I ended up in the current situation.”

The group decided to stop in the middle of the street. There was a shop that had a few seats on the outside. Himmy took a seat and gave a few coins, to which the owner brought out a few sticks of meat for them to eat.

A plate was passed over, and the three of them slowly started to eat what was given to them. While Charlotte was eating her stick, she lifted her hand to cover her mouth. It was quite clear that she didn’t want Raze looking at her, so he turned his head away.

“Your situation is quite the sh*t one, pardon my French,” Himmy commented. “It seems that the academy has gone to some drastic measures because of the upcoming martial arts tournament. Honestly, I had heard the Erupting Fist Clan was going around to all the clans asking for some type of permission, so now it makes some sense.”

Somewhat, the start of Raze wishing to go against the academy was the assessment, which is why he had used this as a basis.

“I guess there is a real question though, what is the reason you called us? You could have stayed in the Demonic Faction, or maybe lived your life as a wanderer.” Himmy asked.

“I was uncomfortable with the Demonic Faction,” Raze answered. “It still hasn’t been long since I have come to this world. The academy was my way of learning how the Pagna world worked, and now this has happened.”

“Alter is a place with Otherworlders; in a way, it feels like it’s the only place where I can feel safe. I don’t really have anywhere to go, and I was made a squad member.”

Himmy continued to look at Raze as he told his story. There was one thing that was bothering him, and it was the fact that Raze had answered almost immediately, as if he had an answer already ready, and as if he had expected the question to come.

“Your posting as a squad member, I invited you honestly because I thought it would be handy for us to have someone on the inside of the academy for information. Since the clan heads seem to go to the academy once in a while.”

“Are you saying no then?” Raze asked.

“I didn’t say that, just saying the reason why I originally asked you to join the squad,” Himmy answered. “You are a squad member, and I guess you can join our team of investigators, so you can travel with us, and from time to time we will need to head in and report to the main base.”

This was what Raze was hoping for; at the main base of Alter, there would be answers, including maybe how to go to the other side. If all hell broke loose, he still had the item that would allow him to summon a Divine one as well. It was his wild card because he didn’t know what exactly would happen. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

“We currently have a mission now, but in a way, you are somewhat related to this,” Charlotte said nervously, rubbing the back of her head. “We were going to have you come on the team after you completed your time at the academy. You would be stronger then, helping us out. We were hoping the current mission we were on would be completed by then because you’re kind of a suspect.”

Hearing these words, Raze was pretty sure he knew what case they were on because there was only one thing he would be a suspect in.

“You are smart, so I’m sure you have figured it out,” Himmy said. “We actually got changed to another mission. We completed that, and then they put us on the mission again. Do you want to know why?”

“Because the other team that got involved, they were all killed.”

This just confirmed his suspicion. Himmy and Charlotte were investigating the mysterious deaths that had occurred in his town. The one that included his family and himself.

town. The one that included his family and himself.

“I have to ask, has anyone tried to come after your life, or your sister’s?” Himmy asked.

“While at the academy, not really, but that might be because I was in the academy,” Raze answered.

Himmy pulled out a little pad and a long black piece of tool. He started to write on sheets of paper, making small notes, and placed it back in his pocket.

The deaths, with what had happened, Raze thought the special demon that followed him might have something to do with it, but he was thinking that was less likely as well. And then there was a chance the original Raze was behind it, but he hadn’t found out much about the original Raze, as it appeared his sister also didn’t know much.

“I expected as much. Honestly, the reason why we’re here at the moment is because the group that was killed running the investigation was killed right here in this city. So it looks like we are going to be here a while.”

“As for your suspicion, you’re pretty much cleared as a suspect, but remember that you are still a target, so anything could happen. But I would like to welcome you to the group and welcome you to the first mission. The rest of the members are waiting; I’m sure they will be interested in meeting you.”

With what had happened with the last group, Raze was a little worried about meeting the rest of these members, and what might happen the longer he stayed in the Lethal Bite Clan, what would occur.

“I guess if we want to leave this city quickly and head to Alter, I better find out who is behind these deaths as quickly as possible.”
Chapter 485 A New World Arrives

In the center of the Lethal Bite Clan, there was the large building that was placed up high above the grand staircase. Reaching the very top would be easy for Pagna warriors, but regular citizens would have a tough time.

Which was why they hardly saw new people going up and down the staircase, but that wasn’t the case today. People who were nearby walking through the streets pointed at the staircase as they witnessed something odd.

A man, fairly short in size, barely visible, was carrying a round shield on his back that was larger than himself. The image made it look as if a slow-moving turtle was heading up the stairs, as the person used their hands and legs to climb the stairs.

What was odd was how the shield was also placed on his upper back, covering most of the top of his head. Because if the man was to place the shield lower, then it would hit the floor and it would be near impossible for him to move.

Eventually, the man had made it to the top, and the guards that were on standby had walked forward. When they had arrived and saw who it was, immediately they bowed down, lowering their heads in front of him.

“We greet the Vice Head of the Moon Shield Clan, Bargo Gunner!” The two guards said in sync.

“Ah yes, yes!” The short man said with a smile, lifting his head. He had a full, healthy beard, and his face was a little red. It would be strange for it to be red from the climb, so it seemed to just be a part of his normal complexion.

“I have been sent here to help you with matters until things are sorted out, but most likely you will not need my help, so if there is a nice place for me to rest, that would be nice,” Bargo said.

After Raze had agreed to continue his journey as part of the group along with Alter, it meant he would be working with others and the rest of Himmy’s group. It did make Raze wonder whether there were other people in Himmy’s group, since he seemed more like a lone warrior.

The group had arrived at an Inn, but rather than heading inside or to a room, instead, they took a step around the side alleyway and were climbing up the staircase that would go around the building. From the look of things, they were heading to the top.

“I need to tell you about these members you are meeting; in truth, there is only one or people in our team. Our team is smaller than most,” Himmy explained. “And honestly, most of the time it’s just me and Charlotte that travel together as I need her expertise to work on a number of jobs requested by the clans.”

“As for this person on our team, she usually works alone, but since this case has been bothering us for a long time, she has been brought on board as well, and she is… what can I say.”

“She is different from us,” Charlotte explained as she stopped at the top of one section of the stairs they had already reached the third level.

“What do you mean different?” Raze asked. “We are all different from each other; do you mean something like Marcus’s group, that maybe she is from another world?”

Himmy’s and Marcus’s world, which Raze still had yet to find the name of. Then there were those from Alterian and those from Pagna. Recently Raze had also learned that there were people like Shing, who was from a place called Earth where people had a single ability which varied by a large amount.

“Is she from Earth?” Raze asked.

“I see you have learned about otherworlders,” Himmy said as he continued to move forward. “She is not from Earth; to be honest, she’s the only one of her kind in Alter that is currently in this world, that is why she is different from the rest of us.”

Since she had gone on missions on her own and was able to survive away from the group, Raze assumed that she had to be strong, but these people from other worlds made him wonder just what power she had.

Finally, the three of them had reached the very top, the rooftop of the building. In the distance at the edge of the building, a female, clad in the Pagna clothing that the locals would wear, had her back turned away from the others.

All Raze could see was her short-cut hair that went a little past her shoulders.

“You know in our world we have a saying, that it’s rude to talk about someone behind their back,” the voice said as she turned around. Raze could finally see her face; she had two large eyeballs, her face was perfectly symmetrical, oddly so.

If anything, Raze could say her face was too perfect, as if it had been altered, and that’s when he could see something, rising up just from the bottom of her neck, a slight red glow.

He had seen this before, and seeing this woman was reminding him of something.

“It is nice to meet you, Raze,” the woman said as she walked forward. In doing so, her footsteps were heavier than usual, enough that Raze could tell the difference as she walked forward.

“My name is Anna,” the woman said as she continued to walk forward, and reached out her hand toward Raze for a handshake.

“It is nice to meet you…” Raze answered; his hand was hesitant to reach out. Although it was easier for him to deal with a woman’s touch, it was still hard; since he had done it with Alba recently, he was about to reach out until the woman spoke.

“It’s okay,” Anna said. “I can tell that you are anxious; your heart rate has increased considerably, and the palms of your hands are sweating slightly. I do not wish to make you uncomfortable; I was just performing a female greeting.”

“This is great!” Charlotte said, bringing both of her hands together. “The two of you are getting along well; I thought that there would be a problem between the two of you, but I guess I didn’t need to worry after all.”

Now closer, Raze could see the glow even more, and when Anna had raised her hand, he could see the red glow coming from just underneath her sleeve as well, and that’s when it had hit him, there was someone that looked somewhat similar.

“The observations that you made… how were you able to do that?” Raze asked.

Anna smiled as she gave her answer.

“That’s because I’m not completely human and part machine. I know your world doesn’t have something like this, so I bet you’re quite surprised.”

When she said these words though, she had analyzed something else.

“Wait… you are surprised, but you don’t seem to be very surprised… have you met my kind before?”

Raze didn’t know how to answer this because it was only a guess. When in another dimension, he had met a man with a metallic suit that was made out of advanced machinery.

He was extremely powerful, but the only thing he knew about him was his name, Zon.
