Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 789 Breakthrough!



789  Breakthrough!

When a breakthrough is used, a tremendous amount of mana is released by the mage. It activates all of the magic circles surrounding one’s heart. The power manifests depending on what type of person one is.

Not everyone’s breakthrough is the same, but some can be similar. The mass amount of energy released will be based on what type of affinity the magic circle has. In this case, Bronk’s was Ice magic, which was why the whole room had gotten chillier, and everything was now covered in frost.

‘A six-star mage doing a breakthrough—I was hoping he didn’t know how to do that,’ Kelly thought. ‘I think this is going to be a lot harder than Harvey thought.’

As the magic started to settle, Kelly could see Bronk standing there, different from before. His whole body was covered in ice. It almost looked like armor, a knight in light blue, covered from head to toe, apart from his eyes.

“Ice armor? That’s a pretty lame breakthrough if you ask me!” Harvey jumped to the side, and he controlled his puppet to do the same. Then, from both sides, they both fired beams of dark energy.

It hit Bronk’s body cleanly, but the magic just disintegrated into nothing. Then, when Bronk lifted his hand, a sword began to form. Bronk lifted the ice sword above his head and swung it down through the air.

The attack let out a large trail of ice on the floor. Harvey tried to move away, but his feet had frozen.

“Damn it, the file didn’t say anything about him being a magic swordsman.”

“You Dark Mages will be executed by the Glory Guild!” Bronk shouted as he charged forward. The Dark Puppet moved, swinging its arms like tentacles through the air.

Bronk was swift as he swung his sword, freezing the tentacles and getting rid of part of the puppet bit by bit.

Quickly, Kelly moved over, and with her hands heated up with Fire magic, she placed them on Harvey’s leg. Saʀch* Th NovelFull.net website on Ggl to access chapters of nvels early and in the highest quality.

“This might hurt a little,” Kelly said.

“Do you think I have time for that!” Harvey stated. As soon as his feet were back to normal, he charged forward, encasing his hand with Earth magic.

The Dark Puppet practically leaped onto Bronk, and as it was stabbed in the center, its body was turning to ice.

Harvey jumped forward and bashed Bronk from the side with the heavy fist, shifting his feet but not breaking the ice. Instead, it was Harvey’s arm that was now covered in ice. Thankfully, it was just the part he had covered in Earth magic.

“Everything that touches this armor will be frozen,” Bronk said. Even the ground beneath his feet where he stepped was frozen with Ice magic.

“You know Fire magic, right? Just use whatever you’ve got, use everything, or we won’t live through this!” Harvey shouted.

His puppet was on the verge of destruction, but with it so close to Bronk, he knew what to do. He controlled it to dive onto Bronk one more time.

While Kelly, staying far back, started to fire fireball after fireball.

‘I can’t break through, I don’t know how, I never learned how to, but I can do this.’

With one hand, Kelly started to use Fire magic, and with the other, she used wind, making a devastating combo that blasted out a tunnel of flames toward Bronk. For a moment, he couldn’t do anything as the puppet was using its body, bashing it against Bronk, not caring if it was frozen or not.

Harvey looked like he had lost his mind as he was just forming giant rocks and throwing them in Bronk’s direction.

“Keep firing those flames, young one! Don’t let up, just keep going!” Harvey ordered.

But then, the puppet was destroyed, and Harvey felt a great pain around his chest. He fell to his knees. The distraction had caused Kelly to run to his side, checking if he was okay.

“Are you alright?” Kelly asked.

“My puppet,” Harvey said, knowing full well it had been destroyed, but even then, he wouldn’t have had the energy to control it anymore either.

“Of course, he’s not alright,” Bronk answered, stepping through the flames. His ice armor was still on his body, but it appeared to be falling off, disappearing into the wind.

“A breakthrough uses an incredibly large amount of mana; it practically breaks the magic circle. Time is needed for it to be mended again. He used his breakthrough for far too long, which means currently he can’t use any magic, and I doubt your three-star spells will do any harm to me.”

Bronk no longer had the armor on his body, but he still had the ice sword in his hand. He was ready to strike but noticed the smile on Harvey’s face.

“Aren’t you in the same position as us then?” Harvey asked. “After all, you are using your breakthrough as well. Did you force your armor away so you could linger onto your power just a little longer? Because that’s going to work against you.”

Kelly fired a fireball out of the palm of her hand. It was the only thing she could do—a quick magic attack while her opponent didn’t expect anything.

Bronk lifted the sword and sliced the fireball in half, making it disappear into nothing but particles of frost falling to the floor.

“Even now, his power… it’s a lot stronger than mine,” Kelly thought.

It was over. Their first mission as the Dark Guild had come to an end. They had failed. She started to think, when the Dark Spirit would return, would he be upset that they were gone?

Surprised that they had been foolish enough to do something like this? Would it be too much to hope to see him appear now?

“Meoooow!”

“Was that a cat?” Bronk turned around and saw a cat flying right at his stomach, its paws covered in Dark magic. The moment it touched Bronk’s skin, it pulsated, and a shockwave of magic was sent out, sending Bronk flying through the air and crashing into the kitchen.

Harvey turned his head to see Bronk unmoving, blood dripping down from his head, and then he turned back to the cat.

“Let’s hope he’s still alive.”
