Dark Magus Returns

340  Strongest Attack (Part 2)

The Eighth Descending Step was performed, as Raze’s body was spinning down towards his opponent. All of the build-up of the steps of Qi was ready to be unleashed.

“Magic Eclipse Strike!” Raze unleashed the large strike from above his head with the spinning, and a giant black slash had appeared from his sword.

It immediately crashed into the giant plant, and the area sank by a few inches into the ground. The large attack was still on top of the beast, until the ground around sunk even further in, slicing the beast completely in half.

The shockwave from the attack of magic and Qi was unleashed, blowing air out to all of those who were close.

And finally, floating down, landing in the crater on top of the dead beast’s body was Raze. Who quickly fell to his knee.

He had done it; he had produced a large enough strike to take out a level 4 beast in one go. The Descending Steps needed preparation time.

Fighting against a human, he could use them to avoid the blows and strikes. Fighting against a beast, it was a different matter altogether, since they could avoid the hits as they wanted.

The strongest sword technique he knew was the Eclipse Strike, the second formation in the Dark Edge Sword Arts. Combined with his newfound magical power.

“I’ve never seen anything like this, someone defeating a Dimension Boss just like that. Especially one with such healing capabilities,” Graft said out loud.

The image of the strike was still in his head. How much power it had, how much pressure he felt from the Qi alone.

Being a wanderer who specialized in the Demonic Faction, he knew those steps; they were the Descending Steps, but it was the first time he had seen eight steps used in a row like that. historical

He thought he would never be able to witness such a thing.

‘That guy, he might be a really high-ranking member of Alter. If that is the case, he had every right to get rid of me.’ Graft thought, and he was now thankful that he hadn’t done it.

To perform everything Raze had just done, to even use this move, including the Descending Steps he needed, power that he didn’t have. Qi and Mana that he had already used up, leaving him no choice but to use the Qi pills.

As the creator of the Qi pills though, Raze knew the drawback of using two of them in succession like so and the problem that they would cause.

Raze stood there for a moment on top of the beast. The effects of the pills had yet to wear off.

‘Well, this is going to hurt.’

A jolt was felt around Raze’s heart, a feeling he had felt before. The absence of all of his mana, disappearing from him.

At the same time, he then felt a stabbing pain right in his stomach, as all of the Qi disappeared from his body.

Nearly all of the warmth that he had from his blood, from his power, all of it was quickly disappearing. Yet the worst was yet to come.

“Arghh! My head feels like it’s being split in half… was taking two of those pills too much!” Raze thought to himself.

The special cursed Qi pills wouldn’t work if one tried to use two of them in a row. One could use a Qi pill to restore their mana from 0 to what they were before.

However, if they were to use it a second time, it would have no effect, giving the user no mana. Instead, the body would try to react to the substance and instead, force pain on the user.

It was like squeezing a bottle that had already run out of water.

If the user naturally restored their Qi, then used the Qi pill again, that would be fine and would work.

Another method would be to use regular pills to restore one’s Qi. This worked as well.

All of this to do with Qi was the same way it worked with one’s mana as well.

Raze had noticed something with the cursed pills though. Originally, they were there to restore mana, not Qi.

With the Pagna warriors, it worked in restoring their Qi. With mages, it worked with restoring their mana.

Was there a way to restore both? He had a theory, and that was taking two of the pills at once.

If he had done this, it couldn’t restore what was already full, and an overflow would occur, then restoring his Qi after.

His plan had worked, only he had a fear. That this would cause the same pain as when one would try to take a cursed Qi pill right after already taking one.

And he seemed to be right, only the pain was much more than he expected.

He knew the pain would stop eventually, but right now, the pain was close to being unbearable, to the point where he felt like he would do anything to get out of this pain.

“Are you okay?” Alba and Froma asked as they had come rushing to Raze’s side. They could tell something was wrong, seriously wrong.

What could they do though, they had no idea.

“This is because you let him take out the Dimension Boss on his own!” Froma complained. “If we had helped, maybe he wouldn’t have pushed himself too far.”

Alba certainly thought the Dark Magus had done that. The attack she had witnessed was one a top-level Middle stage Pagna warrior could only produce.

The whole landscape had changed, and they were sunk in at least two meters further down than the surface level before.

Eventually though, Raze stopped screaming. The pain was going away. He still felt exhausted though, but at least the pain had stopped.

When looking up, he noticed the tanned girl in front of him, and the small red-rose-cheeked girl.

“What are you guys doing here, were you spying on me?” Raze asked.
