Dark Magus Returns

Due to the selling of the special pills Raze had made, he was relatively wealthy, but most of his funds were kept with Fixteen who would pass them on once in a while.

He had been the brains behind the operation. Using the Crimson Crane as well as a group of those that he trusted to sell them to specific merchants, rather than directly.

He did this because he knew that the merchants would mark up the price, driving more people to try to find the source material as well.

Because the demand outstripped the supply, he now had a list of customers he could already sell to whenever he wished.

The hardest part was getting his hand on the Dark Magus to get him to even make the items to begin with.

With the funds that they had, though, Fixteen listened to Raze and crates of food were being delivered. They had gone to the next biggest city in order to buy supplies, and they had arrived.

Mayor Yarlston was extremely pleased with this and asked his people in the town hall to go to work, handing out the food.

There were queues waiting to grab what they could of the food. For the first time, many of them were able to eat and still had food left for the future days.

The three of them headed outside and were now standing by the food. They were there just in case any problems occurred and would deal with it themselves.

Many of the town’s people knew that Rayna was from the Neverfall Clan; they had heard who had arrived, so they didn’t dare to try anything.

After all, these were regular citizens in the first place, not Pagna warriors.

“Do you know what you’re doing?” Rayna asked.

The others looked at her, surprised she would ask such a question, then again, she was technically Raze’s wife so she should be able to speak to him as directly as she wanted.

“He’s giving the people food, isn’t this a good thing?” Anna replied. “He just arrived as the new warriors entering this place, and now the people will see him in good favor.”

Fixteen was the one that was shaking his head at that point. “If it was that easy to solve, do you think these people would still be in this situation in the first place?” Fixteen replied. “I actually agree with Rayna’s line of thinking, I didn’t stop you Raze, because I thought you might have some type of plan, but I’m not sure you know how dangerous this is.”

“Dangerous, how could this be dangerous?” Anna asked, looking at the weak people. She imagined even if they were all to fight her at once, she could kill them all in an instant. It wouldn’t even take much effort.

To her, there was no danger at all.

“People are fickle, right now, they will be appreciative of what you have done, but there will be those in the Town House that will think you are just showing off your wealth for one,” Fixteen explained.

“Jealousy is a powerful thing,” Rayna added.

“On top of that, say something happens, where you need these funds yourself, or you are unable to supply these people with food and take it away from them.”

“They will forget about all the good you did, and aim their anger toward you. You will be a point of hatred for them. Someone easy to blame for their situation being bad.”

“You know, people don’t like to see others doing better than them and often want to drag you down to their level. So unless you are planning to look after them like this forever, I don’t think it’s a good idea.”

Honestly, Raze hadn’t thought that much about it. He was no leader of a city, nor a leader of a corporation in his past life; he had no knowledge about this stuff.

To him, it wasn’t going to be such a hard task, because he planned to reform the entire city using his magic. It was what Alterians were able to do, reform things using the energy of Mana, to create a sustainable place.

It would be harder for him to do since he was just one mage and it would be easier if he had more elements along with being a higher star.

After setting up the basics, the people could get to work and be self-sufficient. This might be a city in his name, but he had no intentions of staying in one place either, this was just a safe place for him, and for now.

“I never planned to just give them everything. I just hate to see people hungry, and when I have the means to change it, then I might as well make their lives a little better.”

“If what happens happens, then let them be angry at me, I don’t care about that. Things will be easier for them that way.” Raze answered.

While watching, Mayor Yarlston walked over and gave a bow, thanking Raze for everything he had done. Even he had been sacrificing a lot of funds that were sent to the town in order to provide some sort of relief for the people.

However, the Flesh Clan from before were taking too much of their funds using the basis of protection. It was the first time a Mayor had a clan spend money on them, rather than they providing the money.

“I wish to let the people know of your kindness and make them aware of what you have done,” Yarlston stated. “Which is why I wanted to ask, what clan are you from, what clan has decided to reside in the city of Flendon?”

Rayna and Raze looked at each other. Belil had already stated that she wouldn’t be part of the clan anymore, so they couldn’t use their name.

“You’re part of the Crimson Crane, yes? So I guess this would be a base for the Crimson Crane?” Rayna answered.

Raze had no problem with that; he had agreed to still stay in the Crimson Crane after all. The issue was, could him just being a member really use their name like so?

“I think it might be best if we get in touch with them,” Raze said. “Besides, we need some people that can protect this place, and they have something that they want from me anyway.”

A communication device like that Alter had, but better and worked at a far range. It would be impossible for him to create an entire network, but he could link each individual device using magic.

“You have a way to get in contact with them Rayna? You were with them before,” Raze asked.

“I do, I will let you know that you asked for them, and to come here as soon as possible.”

Meanwhile, somewhere in the Dark Faction the Crimson Crane were walking through one of the many cities, across the hard solid ground flooring.

They had moved here because one, they wanted to stay away from the Behemoth Clan after causing some trouble for them.

The second, was to expand the sales of the Dark Magus’s product now to the Dark Faction as well.

What they were unaware of, was the large news and event that had unfolded. How the Dark Magus had married into the Neverfall Clan.

“Hey, that’s Alba right?” One of the warriors said, looking at her walk past.

“Yeah, it is, what are they doing here, isn’t it confirmed that they are now part of the Demonic Faction?”

Alba had overheard these words, and her heart started to flutter. What were these rumors that were being spread? Were they no longer being considered wanderers?

If that was the case, then the situation for them, now being in the Dark Faction could turn out very bad.

“Yeah, I heard that the Dark Magus was under their protection, and the guy married into the Neverfall Clan. That means the Crimson Crane are now a group under the Neverfall Clan.”

While walking down with Froma by her side, they soon could see a group following them from behind, and soon more warriors started to appear in front of them.

“This isn’t good… this isn’t good at all,” Alba said to herself.
