Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 18: The World of Pagna



Chapter 18: The World of Pagna

The name “Pagna warriors” had come about in a simple way. It was because the world of martial arts that they lived in was called Pagna. It was a world that was split into three continents with small areas of sea between them.

One of the continents, known as the east continent, solely belonged to the clans in the Light faction, and the biggest empire in Pagna also resided there, boasting the largest military force.

The west continent had two factions: the dark and the demonic faction. The Dark faction clans were mostly based in the south, with the demonic faction based in the north.

Then there was the final continent, the north continent. It was uninhabited land, or at least that was the theory. There was no map that dictated how big, what shape or size the place was, but by all of the factions as well as the locals, it was deemed a place impossible to explore.

The seas nearby were treacherous. Whirlpools surrounded the land, lightning would strike on the surface, and the waves were impossible to sail through for any ship.

This was the current world of Pagna. Somewhere on the massive continents, there was one place in particular that was special, a place which belonged to the Neverfall Clan. The place was known as the Abyssal Pinnacle.

It was an ancient, inverted mountain. Instead of rising from the earth, it delved deep in, forming a spiraling abyss. Legends once stated that a demon had fallen from the sky and upon impact had created the place.

Over centuries, the Neverfall clan has used it as their base, and returning to the base was none other than Dame and his group. They were currently walking down a spiraling staircase that went deeper into the clan’s base.

The base was split into different levels. On the upper levels, pathways were carved into the side of the walls. The lower members lived and trained here, and as they cultivated and grew their powers, they were allowed to head to the lower levels.

“Sir, where are you going?” Fixteen asked.

Fixteen was Dame’s right-hand man. The two of them had been together since they were young and were around the same age. They had even attended the Pagna academy together. If there was anyone that Dame trusted, it was him. 𝓷𝒪𝑽𝑬𝓁𝑛𝔢xt.𝒸𝑜𝐦

“I mean, aren’t we going to inform the master of our return, or the fact that we ran into Beatrix Highborn? If she finds out who you are, it could cause us a big headache,” Fixteen said.

“We barely managed to escape with our lives,” Kirk said, patting the sweat on the top of his large bald head. The Abyss also got hotter as one went further down.

“Don’t you see? That’s what’s not important right now,” Dame smiled. “Carlson’s leg is completely fine. They actually managed to heal the infection of a beast! Something that only middle stage warriors are able to do.”

“Okay?” Fixteen said as he was trying to climb down the stairs faster to catch up to Dame who was speeding off ahead.

“Doesn’t that just mean he’s a middle stage warrior?” Fixteen said. “Although that is impressive, I still don’t understand why you are acting this way. It’s not as if you’ve never seen a middle stage warrior before.”

Stopping in his tracks, Dame turned around with his fists by his hips. The look was the same as a parent that was disappointed in the actions of their child.

“Have you ever seen him before?” Dame asked. “Don’t you think we would have known someone if they were at the middle stage and looked that young? The whole world would have known of him, and there’s one thing that you probably missed.”

Dame tapped the side of his nose and had a large smirk on his face.

“That kid… he had next to no Qi. That’s why the pill worked on him so well.”

All of the faces in the group had dropped.

“No Qi?” Carlson said. “That’s impossible, otherwise, how would he have been able to heal my leg.”

“Exactly!” Dame said, as he continued to hurry down the stairs, and the others had to follow to try to listen to his explanation. “Not only did he have no Qi, but he was able to survive an attack from Beatrix and to finish it all off, he healed your leg.

“It’s as clear as day; what he used were powers that aren’t from our world.”

The others didn’t say anything because they thought what Dame was suggesting was crazy talk. How long had they been using the portals to travel to other realms, to other worlds and dungeons, yet none of them ever had signs of human life, and not humans that looked like them.

What were the chances that they would be the ones to discover this? This was something that would have at least been revealed by one of the Deity stage Warriors.

Eventually, after the group went deeper into the inverted mountain, they came across what was known as the Abyssal library. It was a vast cavern filled with ancient scrolls, tomes, and books.

In here, there were forbidden techniques, rituals, and the clan’s secrets. Some of the scrolls and books were said to whisper to only those that they felt worthy of hearing their words.

“So what are we doing in the Clan’s library then?” Fixteen asked. “That you so desperately had to get to before going to the master.”

“Don’t you remember what I said?” Dame replied, as he was scanning the bookshelves, looking for something in particular.

“The Dark Magus is one that is not from our world. Which means they have extreme knowledge, possibly items and more that we don’t have here. This world is about give and take, and judging by how he reacted, he is also one that believes in this concept.

“If we give him a few things, then I’m sure there are things that we can get in return from him. It’s quite possible he could be the one that could change our entire clan forever, and the status quo that has existed for a long time will finally break.”

Just then, Dame had found what he was looking for and pulled out a book.

“You can’t be serious!” Kirk said, looking around. “That’s one of our clan’s techniques. We aren’t allowed to teach that to outsiders. If someone finds out what you did… you could be executed!”

“Relax yourself,” Dame said. “Think of the big picture, think of what we could get in return from him. The Dark Magus will be our biggest helper and the start of a change in our world.”
