Dark Magus Returns - Chapter 401: Let Me Speak!
In the sandy dimension, Feebie was looking at the trail of blood on the ground. She noticed the general direction it had headed in.
Although Raze had somehow managed to escape, she still had an idea of where he might have gone.
'That one is full of dirty tricks,' Feebie thought to herself. 'He might even be able to do even more than this. Why would someone like him come to the Dark Faction Academy?'
Feebie stood up straight, wasting no time as she ran through the desert area. She had gone out of the civilized buildings and was now scouting out.
Once in a while, she would bounce on the ground a couple of times, pushing the sand away before jumping up high in the air.
Here she had a wider view and was looking to see if she could spot Raze anywhere. She continued to do this, searching in several areas.
'The sand, it will have covered up the traces of more blood. I only know the general direction he went in, but he could have changed where he went after that as well.'
'This is going to be quite difficult to search for him.'
At the same time, the one thing she didn't want him to do was escape, so with her search, she was making sure she still had an eye on the original area, seeing if Raze had gone past, so she had to move forward a bit at a time.
'The kid also knew the Noctis Clan skills as well. Is that why he's come to the academy, maybe to get revenge, but that still doesn't explain the strange powers he had either,' she thought to herself.
Her keen eyes were still gazing over everything, but she was clearly deep in thought about Raze's true identity and his true power.
'He couldn't have just learned the Noctis Clan skills himself. Someone had to have taught him, but there should be no one left alive in the Noctis Clan.
'If I can, the best thing to do would be to take him alive. I need to bring him to Murkel and inform him about what is going on.
'I'll just tell Murkel that he needs to leave the pleasure of working with him to me.'
When Feebie landed in the sand this time, the ground started to rumble underneath her feet. Before she knew it, appearing out of the sand above her was a giant sandworm. It had several different sections of its body, a wide-opening mouth that had razor-sharp teeth continuing through the rest of its body.
As it jumped over her, the shadow was cast, and she widened her feet.
"All of you, get away, you're not the one that I want!" Feebie jumped up in the air, and with her fist, she punched the giant worm. Its body bent inward before it was sent up further into the sky, almost touching the clouds. It started to fall back down, and when landing in the sand, blood was pouring out from its mouth.
'This search is more annoying than I thought, and it's just making my blood boil even more. When I see that White Dragon, I might not be able to contain my own anger.'
Continuing to search through the sand, she started to think about the others as well. Those that she had sent from the Lethal Bite Clan.
'Royo is on the move as well. He should be done with his task fairly quickly. I told him once he had finished off his target, to come meet me here.'
'Some time has passed now, but I didn't see him enter through the portal. Is it possible that he ran into some trouble?'
She started to shake her head at this thought.
'Royo might even be stronger than me; it would be impossible for any of the students, even if they were all together, to give him trouble.'
'The only thing I can think of is him.'
The image of the Vice Principal had now entered Feebie's mind.
'If he wasn't there back then, then we wouldn't have had to go through all of this. I would have been able to kill Raze right there and then! Is it possible he protected him, knowing that he is someone from the Noctis Clan?'
So many thoughts were running through her head. For a while now, things felt a bit strange, and she wondered if it was the students' doing.
Everything hadn't been going their way from the start, from when he had arrived.
Just up ahead, she soon saw another camp of sorts from those that lived here before. It looked similar to the other area.
With sandstone buildings, large green trees, and this one even had a river that seemed to run through one of the pathways. It looked quite shallow.
'If I was a little rat like him, then I would choose a place like this to hide where I would have cover.'
Walking through the place, Feebie was keeping an ear out, trying to see if she could hear anything, a sound, a breath.
"You're here, right?" Feebie shouted, her voice echoing and bouncing off the nearby buildings. "I know you're here, you little rat."
"They may call you the White Dragon, but I know you're nothing like a dragon, you're just a stinking rat, who bears its teeth and strikes using dirty tricks!"
Tensing her fist, she threw it out to the building right next to her. The whole structure exploded, with piles of large sandstone going flying off in the distance.
The entire building apart from the base of the structure was no more.
"I guess if I was you, I wouldn't come out either. I mean if you did, this is exactly what would happen to you," Feebie claimed.
She was waiting for a reply, for something, but again, there was no answer, so she stood there and let out a big sigh.
"You know, there is an easy way to force yourself out. I killed a few beasts on the way here. If I continue to do so, a dimension boss will appear. If I beat it and leave this area, how long do you think you can survive in here?
"After a certain amount of time, the portal will close up, and you will be trapped in this world. Oh, and by the way. I have sent some of my Clan to deal with every single one of the other students.
"I'm pretty sure by now, all of them are dead."
Feebie smirked, and right then, she could hear the sound of heavy wheezing.
She immediately turned around, and when she did, she could see Raze standing right by the shallow river, in the center path, looking at her.
"Finally, the rat has come out, but why, why didn't you just keep on hiding? Is it because of what I said about your friends?"
Raze looked at Feebie; his cultivation was still out, his Mana, it was next to nonexistent. What could he do in this situation?
Placing his hand on his throat, Raze grabbed it slightly harder, allowing him to speak a few words.
"I… want… to… talk," Raze finally said.
