Dark Magus Returns
Dark Magus Returns - Chapter 420: Every one want's the Dark Magus

Bubble and his workers had checked the whole tower to see what damage had been left. Nearly every guard looked to have been dealt with swiftly.

There was next to no damage at all done to the tower. Which was strange because for one to be able to finish off another so easily, it meant there needed to be a large difference in power between the two.

What Bubble did find out through his investigation was the fact that quite a few people from the tower as well as his other means of work had been asked the same questions.

They had even paid his factories where he would print the newspapers out to spread across the town and city, asking them the same thing, for information on the Dark Magus.

Finally, after a tiring few hours of trying to get things back to normal, Bubble had returned to his seat.

"The Crimson Crane missing, several mysterious groups asking me about the Dark Magus, but at least with the other groups, I knew who they were, those two old men, I had no idea who they were!" Bubble complained.

"Based on their power, do you think they might have come from a different realm?" Charles, one of Bubble's closest assistants, asked.

"You mean, those two, you think they were Divine stage beings?" Bubble scratched his head. "We would have to look into it if they were."

"But then that begs the question right, why would Divine stage beings be looking for the Dark Magus? Is there some fight going on above?"

"Have they realized that the items he creates will even help them? Or maybe they just see large potential and are trying to get a head start."

Thinking about it more, if Bubble wanted to look into it, he would have to try and find out about the Divine beings that had transcended into the upper realm recently.

However, recently for something like that could be several hundreds of years. As it took a long time for one to reach the Divine Stage.

"The Dark Magus, the Dark Magus, everyone wants to know about the Dark Magus, heck even I want to know about the Dark Magus, who is he!" Bubble shouted.

At that moment, the doors, which had just been fixed, were slammed open again. They didn't quite come off their hinges, but they did hit the wall.

"Tell me what you know about the Dark Magus!" a voice immediately said.

To which Bubble just slapped his head and dragged his hands until his eyes nearly fell out. However, ignoring the request, he started to look at the person.

This time, the visitor was someone that he did know. "Rayna, from the Neverfall Clan, what are you doing here?"

"I believe I already made that clear, I want to know what you know about the Dark Magus," Rayna asked.

"Look," Bubble sighed. "I only know what I've already published, that and the fact that the Crimson Crane is currently missing somewhere."

"The Crimson Crane is missing?" Rayna replied.

This was information that Bubble hadn't revealed to anyone yet because he didn't know if it was related to the Dark Magus or not.

"Listen, I don't care what you know about the Dark Magus," Rayna stated. "What I really came here to tell you was anything you do know about the Dark Magus, you need to stop reporting on it instantly."

"I want you to keep a tight lip on everything. Or if you do find any information that it comes through me first."

Bubble never intended to step on any clan's toes. So he was careful to reveal only certain information that would sell well but not reveal any big secrets.

The way Rayna was talking to him now, it felt like it was a request, similar to what other clans have made of him in the past.

"I'm sorry, but that might not be something I can do, even if it's a request from the Neverfall Clan," Bubble answered.

"What!" Rayna replied back, clenching her teeth.

"Look, there have already been so many groups asking me about the Dark Magus, including the Behemoth Clan."

"All of them I'm sure will go to great lengths just to get information from me. Besides, you warriors have your groups already, those that gather secret information."

"You all will know more about it than me. Keeping a public news reporter quiet isn't going to do anything, and the way I'm feeling right now, if I kept anything I knew about the Dark Magus, then I would be dead in a heartbeat."

Rayna's anger started to calm down, the more she thought about it. Knowing full well that Bubble was right.

There was still news about the Dark Magus though, that no one knew. About how she was to marry him, and he was soon to join the Neverfall clan.

"You said the Crimson Crane was missing, was the Dark Magus with them?" Rayna asked.

"I don't know, they were last seen at the usual place. That's truthfully all I know, that, and some white-haired young man had visited just before they disappeared," Bubble answered.

Rayna's eyes had widened at that moment. She had seen the real Raze and what he looked like. The description, there weren't many that would look like him, and it seemed to match.

'Did he have something to do with their disappearance, is something going on, and he didn't tell me about it, his future wife!' She thought.

The reaction from Rayna, it also didn't go unnoticed; he could tell that she knew something, and it had something to do with the young white-haired man.

"A lot of dangerous people are after the Dark Magus Rayna," Bubble stated. "I know he's part of the Crimson Crane, and they managed to protect him well so far.

"But I'm not sure how much more they can protect him. The interest in him is rising; I think it might grow to even more than just the Demonic Faction.

"He will need a lot more than the Crimson Crane to protect him."

Rayna turned around, having received as much information as she needed. She was on the search now. 'More protection than the Crimson Crane, well, if he becomes my partner, then he will have the Neverfall Clan protecting him as well.'
