Dark Magus Returns

Raze was left a bit speechless by the sudden ask of the question. He had been wondering for a while now when Anna would ask him what she needed to.

And he had wondered for a few reasons as to why Anna hadn’t called him out for his lying when he had met up with Himmy.

Out of all times, why did she think now was the perfect time?

“I can give you an answer to your question,” Anna said, even though no one had spoken a word. “To put it simply, we have finished with all our tasks.

“There is nothing left for us to focus on, and right now Himmy is currently not here.”

This had answered one of Raze’s questions. Anna was also wary of Himmy. If there was one person that they needed to keep their secrets from, it felt like Himmy was the man.

Charlotte hadn’t said anything to him, and neither had Anna, so Raze needed to make sure.

“So what you said before is true, you can tell when we’re lying then,” Raze said with his hand on his chin, deep in thought.

“Wait, what!” Charlotte shouted. “You can tell when we’re lying? I never knew this. I knew you could do other things, but tell when we’re lying…”

“I can tell more than that,” Anna answered. “I can look at the finer details of a person, the rise in body temperature, heart beat, and pick up on usual cues. Which is why I can tell that you were flirting with Raze earlier.”

Charlotte’s face went red once again. “We weren’t flirting, I think you need to check if your head is alright or not!” Charlotte exclaimed as she grumpily started to put away all of the documents they looked at back into their boxes.

This was something between the two of them, so she would make it appear as if she wasn’t interested even though her ears were tingling and listening.

Anna noticed this, but she didn’t care as she went to look at Raze again.

“Now please state to me, what is it that you know about my kind, or what experience have you had in the past,” Anna asked.

“Before that, can you tell me why you don’t wish for Himmy to know about this? This might affect both of us, and affect me in a negative way, so I think I deserve to know,” Raze answered.

Anna was looking Raze up and down constantly, her eyelids weren’t even closing as she looked at Raze not wanting to miss a single part of the reaction.

“That is because I am part of Alter now,” Anna answered. “Although we all have a degree of freedom in the group, ultimately we are part of Alter.”

“My search for those of my kind is a personal interest of mine and doesn’t seem to be anything that Alter is interested in. There is a chance that Alter may see that I care about my own personal goals more than Alter, and I believe that will be bad.”

“I am happy to speak about this with you and Charlotte because I can tell both of your characters. Right now, you were honest when you asked this question, as for Charlotte, she will never say something if there is a chance it will harm someone she likes.”

“And it appears that she likes both me and you, so she won’t tell a word of this to Himmy.”

Even though Charlotte wasn’t looking at the two directly, her ears were burning red as she heard these words. She was meant to be the current leader of the two, and she was being treated like this.

What Raze had learned from this was how he and Anna might have not been too different. They had their own goals and were just part of Alter to achieve them.

What was worrying him slightly was how from the way Anna was speaking, she was afraid of Alter, that’s why she kept things a secret.

He had seen her strength, and he was sure he hadn’t seen the full extent of it either.

“I promised that I would give you an answer, and it seems like you know what I want to keep away from Himmy and Alter as well. So I will tell you,” Raze answered. “However, the answer I give you, it might not please you.”

Anna nodded as she was ready to hear anything related to the matter. “I am a person you can trust, at least in terms of keeping my mouth shut,” Anna stated.

“I have met a person that is like you, like you assumed. It was while I was at the academy. However, it was a coincidence meeting and even till this day I have no idea why he appeared before me.”

“Also, I am not sure if he is in Pagna or not. Because while I was at the academy, I had met him in another Dimension, it was through a portal exploration.”

Raze could see these words had disheartened Anna quite a bit. It was the first time he had even seen a large change in her facial expression.

If Raze had seen him in another dimension then Anna’s goal of finding one like her in Pagna wasn’t going to be the case.

“Can you at least explain to me, who the person you met is, the details of him?” Anna asked.

“The man had a robotic suit covering his entire body. It seemed to be made out of amethyst material. Over his body there were several sources of red energy circles.”

Each time Raze was saying more words, Anna’s eyes were starting to light up more and more. It was clear that she knew the person that he was describing.

“The man, he didn’t tell me why he appeared in front of me, but mentioned his name, as Zon Grain,” Raze answered, remembering his name well due to the impression he had made.

“Zon Grain,” Anna replied, as a single tear from her left eye had dropped. “So he was alive.”
