Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 489 Expand The Dark Guild



In the world of Alterian, in the underground living areas that divided the two people, there was an abandoned site. A building that was once large and grand and had its time above ground, had sunken below.

A path had been built on top of it, blocking them from seeing the above apart from the view at times when drains, among other things, would be opened up.

In the destroyed large building, a regular meeting that was to occur was going to take place, as two people started to approach the destroyed building, carefully stepping around the flooded wooden planks on the ground.

When reaching the center, neither of them said anything as they waited patiently. They looked at the center area in front of them, which had been cleared.

One of the hooded figures, Kelly, noticed that things had changed since the last time she had been here. The center area where the Dark Spirit would appear, the broken and torn-up items had been removed.

Since only the two of them would arrive here to meet, she had a good idea of who had done such a thing.

‘Is this the way he shows his devotion to the Dark Magus, by making an area for the Dark Spirit to summon easier?’ Kelly thought.

It was the meeting day that the spirit said he would come again and again, but Kelly was deep in thought after the last meeting she had with the Dark Spirit. The things that happened at the Academy had practically changed her life in more ways than the Dark Spirit could perhaps imagine.

At school, many people were starting to acknowledge her. No more did they treat her as someone who wasn’t deserving to be there and waved and said hi. She had even received a few gifts from some of the students.

It was no doubt because those that day, who had seen the power of the Dark Spirit for a split second, or seen how friendly he was with the others, wanted to get close to him.

The thing was, no one knew who he really was, and Kelly was almost certain.

‘That Dark Spirit… I don’t think it’s just a spirit or creation of the Dark Magus, but could very well be the Dark Magus itself, maybe something that even has the memories of the Dark Magus.’

‘I should keep this theory to myself though, who knows how he will act if he finds out.’

Already the actions of the other man were starting to worry her. She could see him tapping his foot on the ground at first. It was getting faster by the second; once in a while, he would even kick the dirt underneath his feet.

Right now, he was pacing back and forth in the same area, and was mumbling to himself, giving out a few exasperated grunts. Finally, when over an hour had passed from the usual meeting time, he couldn’t take it anymore.

“What is going on here!” Harvey shouted. “Where is the Spirit? Why hasn’t it arrived!”

“We don’t know much about the Spirit,” Kelly answered. “Only that it carries the will of the Dark Magus. It is quite possible that for whatever reason, they are unable to come at this time.

“I think it might be best that the two of us focus on our current goals that he has handed to us.”

The words from Kelly seemed to have calmed down Harvey a little as he stopped pacing back and forth, but there was still clearly the air of disappointment over his head. She felt like it was right to keep the theory she had in her head.

“I see, you are right. We don’t know the circumstances that might have occurred. The Dark Spirit could be trying to spread the ideology even further and increasing its strength. I’m sure you felt it last time, the Dark Spirit’s magic power seemed to be growing,” Harvey added.

Judging by the extent of what Kelly had seen it do, she had to agree.

“Did the Dark Spirit mention anything to you last time, since you spent quite some time with it?” Harvey asked.

“It did not,” Kelly answered, but she was thinking about the last words spoken to her. Telling her, if there was a chance for her to try and get out of the situation she was in, being involved in all of this mess, that she should get out.”

“The Dark Spirit seemed to have gotten whatever it was that was needed but told me to continue on with my goal.”

“And how is that proceeding?” Harvey asked.

“Difficult,” Kelly answered. “There are certain situations, but I think things will be cleared up in a week or so, and I will be able to get an answer. And how is your task proceeding, with finding out about the Grand Magus?”

Harvey turned away and spat on the ground; the question had aggravated him. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novᴇl(ꜰ)ire.ɴet

“It’s the same for me, I’m stuck currently. I have a lot of eyes that are watching me at the moment so I have to be careful, very careful.”

With that, Kelly thought the meeting would be over. They had spoken, and it didn’t seem like the Dark Magus was going to turn up, but that’s when Harvey threw something over to her.

It glided through the air, and she managed to catch it. When she looked at what it was, there was an address on a street. It had been a while since she had gotten one of these cards.

“There is another task that the Dark Spirit gave us, the creation and the expansion of the Dark Guild. I have still been looking for members, and there have been reports and hints around this person in particular.”

“I told you before, there are eyes on me. You should head over quickly, before others get wind of this. I have delayed the information for now.”

From time to time, Harvey would ask Kelly to go and recruit members to the guild. Some refused to join, others found comfort in becoming part of a group, but ultimately they would lose their life or get caught.

Leaving only the two of them left. Sometimes Harvey didn’t even ask Kelly for help and just went himself, but when this happened, or when Harvey would mention it, most of the time the person wouldn’t arrive at a meeting.

And that’s for the ones Kelly knew about. Since Harvey was loyal to the Dark Spirit and wished to expand the group, it would be better for her to try to convince others to join them.

She wanted to complain about this; she, after all, had her studies to attend. She had to focus on school, and lastly, there was the extreme issue at hand of getting caught. If it happened, her entire life would be over.

Not to mention, most of the time she would meet others that knew Dark Magic, their first interaction wouldn’t be a friendly one, as their instinct was to attack any strangers approaching them.

“Don’t fail this!” Harvey said, as he was already leaving the place. “The expansion of the Dark Guild is an important one, and the day we come out of the shadows will be the day the sun disappears.”
