Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 702  Fellow Observers

When Liam felt the pain on the back of his neck, memories flashed in his head. He remembered feeling something similar when he thought his life was on the line. The only difference was that he was in another dimension at the time, and that's when Zon had come to save him and implemented the system into him.

The two of them didn't talk much; they didn't say a lot to each other at all, so Liam didn't really know much about him. However, when he felt the pain in his neck again, he could guess what was happening, and this time, with the system, he had been given a hint with the distress signal that had been sent.

He didn't count on it, but when he saw the back of Zon and the arm that had fallen onto the floor, he was sure it was the same person as before.

'Last time he took out that strong Lethal Bite Clan member, and this time he's done the same to the Tulip Clan member as well. Who is this person, and how are they so strong?' Liam started to think. 'I'm guessing that this guy and that woman from before, both of them are from the same place, but if we all have the same thing, if we all have this system, then why is he so much stronger than us?'

A powerful middle-stage warrior had been killed in a simple and easy fashion. It was such a shocking feat that Lulu, who had just lost her sister, had fallen to her knees.

"How can someone like this exist?" Lulu asked, tears rolling down both of her cheeks. She had no will to fight anymore. Nor did she have the energy after passing it all on to her fallen sister. With all the Qi she had given her, she should have been in the high levels of a middle-stage warrior. Possibly even a low-level stage 9, which would still be the peak of the middle stage. And yet she had been killed just like that.

Zon, with the sword still held in his hand, began to walk forward, and he eventually stopped just short of Lulu, who was on the ground. She looked up and stared Zon in the face. She made a note of his strange appearance, one that didn't look like a Pagna warrior. With everything she had seen, she had come to a conclusion that only made sense to her.

"Are you from the Divine Realm?" she asked.

Zon lifted his sword and placed it by her neck.

"The limits of your world are not placed on someone like me. Those rules don't apply. Unfortunately, if I was to let you live, you would do everything in your power to come back and get revenge. I've seen it happen time and time again and been used as the tool for other people's vengeance. I will end the cycle here."

Effortlessly, Zon moved the blade, and it went right through, causing one more head to fall to the ground.

With that, a person who wasn't even involved in the fight to begin with had caused it to end. Turning around, Zon then went up to Liam, who was on the floor. With a single hand, he lifted him and placed him over his shoulder.

"You got hit pretty badly. I can tell because your arm hasn't healed; it will be a while before it's back to normal," Zon explained. "Thanks for saving me… again," Liam said as if he were embarrassed. "I had an idea that this would happen. Business seemed to revolve around you, and I feel like the fact that there is a lot of danger around you means I made the right call."

Jumping from his position, Zon had gone up high in the air and landed right in front of Anna. She was still on the floor, badly hurt. Just like with Liam, Zon placed his sword away by his side, then went and picked her up as well and placed her over his shoulder.

"I didn't expect to see you here of all places," Zon said.

"Same for you… I'm finding it hard to believe. You have a lot of explaining to do," Anna said.

"I imagine it's the same for you as well."

Zon was then looking around the arena, deciding where to go, and Liam was taking a peek at the others that were still fighting as well.

"Are you going to help them… my friends?" Liam asked.

"No," Zon replied, and jumped up in the air again, holding onto the two of them.

Eventually, they landed, but this time, rather than on the arena ground, they were in the arena stands, and they weren't just anywhere—they were around ten meters away from the Light Faction who were also watching everything unfold.

Hannah and Beatrix were a bit taken aback. They had no idea of the strength of this person, and now he had just landed right in front of them.

After looking at them for a few moments and placing both Anna and Liam down in the stands, they eased their guard a little when he looked away.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"I think this is quite an interesting spot for us. The two of you need time to heal; you were hurt really badly. Anyone down there could take you out of this fight in an instant. So we will just observe for now," Zon answered.

"There's no need for you to protect us," Anna said. "We can look after ourselves. I think you should help them."

"Help who exactly?" Zon replied. "I am not a person fighting for one side or the other. I am just someone who has more uses for one side compared to the other. I don't even know the current situation or why it is the way it is. I got involved because of him. Besides, this place is too dangerous even for me, so if things go wrong, we need to back out."

Anna remembered multiple times when Zon would say those words. When they appeared, their entire group in the past was in for an extremely tough fight. Always when those words were spoken, it meant bad news, but it made her question who Zon saw that made him think this way.
