DARK MAGUS RETURNS

From the Empire, Heino had moved back to the Alter base and was causing big waves of movement from within the group.

First, he was using his power of disguising himself as the Emperor, which he had been doing for a number of years to get the regular citizens to head to the Alter base as well.

It was mainly the army and generals’ commanders where from there he would give them a few things.

One was powerful artifacts that would allow them to change the tide of any war, the other was a set of instructions that were seemingly on behalf of the Emperor.

In the same light, Heino had asked Kawk, Cicle, and Impress to do the same. To gather the strongest warriors of the Light Faction, and send them to the Alter base, where he would present to them, the same.

In his office, Heino was placing his hand by both sides of his head, and there was one more in the room with him, Red.

“You look like any second now you’re going to pull out your hair,” Red commented. “What’s going on? Is it the moving of all these groups that you have been running behind the scenes this entire time?

“I don’t understand it either, why are you suddenly giving out all of the artifacts that we have been gathering for so long. I thought you were always afraid they would be used against you.”

Heino let out a big sigh before answering.

“When there is a common enemy at hand, they will focus on using those items for me. At the same time, they are unaware of what we have ourselves.

“If we had them these powerful items they will think two things. First, that this is just a taste of what we have to offer, and they don’t wish to bite the hand that feeds them if they wish to get more.

“The second thing, if we are willing to give away items like these, then what possible items could we have ourselves. These will be the deterrents that keep them steady for now.”

“Right, right,” Red answered. “Besides that you always have us Deleters that can keep them in line, but what I was asking was more, why are you moving now. With having the Golden Globe, it’s only a matter of time before he heads to the other side and helps the others right?

“It’s not like we’re going to war or anything.”

There was then silence for a few moments, before Heino took a ring off his finger and placed it down on the table in front of him.

“This ring, is a life gem. A small part of a person’s magic core is used to make this ring, and as long as it shines a bright blue colour, it means the magic core of the person it’s linked to is still alive.”

“But, the gem’s colour is red, and it’s not shining brightly,” Red repeated, and as he said those words, he realized something.

He first thought the ring had belonged to Heino and was linked to his magic core, but that would have been stupid. If he was dead, he was dead, why would he need a stupid ring to tell him he had perished.

“Garlon, this ring was linked to Garlon,” Heino repeated as he picked it up and started to twirl it around my finger.

“Did you know he was a powerful mage, one of the strongest I had met. Even if he wasn’t a nine-star mage, due to his utilisation of space magic and other powers he could catch any mage off guard.

“If no one could get the job done then I would trust Garlon to do it. When thinking about this mission I thought about sending you.

“The reason I didn’t, is because I put more trust in Garlon getting the job than you.”

“Ouch,” Red immediately said holding his hand near his chest. “Well that hurt, you didn’t have to say it like that.”

Heino knew he didn’t hurt Red’s feelings, he didn’t care about these things, and Red knew why he couldn’t be trusted as much as Garlon who was Heino’s loyal lapdog.

“If Garlon has perished do you know what that means?” Heino asked. “It means that all of the Deleters that I have sent are most likely gone, each one of them has failed their task.

“This Dark Magus, I’m starting to understand why the Grand Magus had feared him so much. If he was able to do something like this.”

“Right,” Red answered. “He certainly was an interesting individual, I feel like if we were born under the same star then maybe the two of us could have been friends.”

“Funny you say that, for I believe the same thing,” Heino replied. “Either way, this is why I am preparing. The attack failed, and we know the Dark Magus wants the golden globe at all costs.

“If he’s working with the Bonum society, then they also know that it will take a while for us before we can use the Golden Globe.

“This is the only window they have. They will use every single little bit of power they have to come at us, and we need to be ready. We can’t underestimate them, which is why I’m prepared to use every power we have, and every artifact we have as well.”

Heino started to think, to wish that he had tried to solve the matter with the Dark Magus before, but due to the chain of events it was next to impossible.

They didn’t even know that he was working with Alter for a while, and that was the real kicker to them all.

“And let me ask you, what about that Enaxx guy that came, where is he, and can’t you use him?”

“Enaxx?” Heino asked. “I have no idea, but he’ll come when we need him, he might just be exploring the thrills of Pagna right now.”
