Dark Magus Returns-Chapter 1243: Untouchable (Part 2)

Safa had gathered up her Qi, and light magic to the point of her spear. She had used it and carefully planned her attack. Just in case Heino had some other way of blocking the attack with her hands, she had decided to go for a vital blow.

It had worked. Her spear had broken through a strange barrier. She had felt it, the barrier perhaps was due to the magical blazer he wore and many other mages wore, and then she saw the spear go right through his stomach.

Heino wasn't a Pagna warrior, so an attack that was this powerful—it was bound to do damage. Even if Heino could get out of it all, now they knew with all of them, they were able to hurt him somewhat.

So, why was it—why was it that he was smiling even though the spear had gone through his stomach? Blood was even rising from his mouth, clear that the attack had affected him in some way.

"All of you have no idea what I'm capable of," Heino claimed.

Suddenly, right in front of Safa, she could see a large mass of magic appear. Her god eyes were informing that it was happening all around her, and in the area where she was standing right now.

"GET OUT OF THERE!" Liam shouted, afraid that he wouldn't be able to reach her in time and cut whatever magic was being used.

Then the floor lit up, and the two of them disappeared, their bodies were no longer there. Liam fell to his knees.

"Did I fail again? Did I fail to stop her just like last time?" Liam said to himself.

"Wait, look," Dame said as he appeared by Liam's side. He had transformed back into his Hybrid form. He hadn't used the power of his gauntlets, having not used them so long ago.

There was still a time period left before he could use them again, but he wasn't so sure it would benefit them anyway. Dame placed his hand on Liam's shoulder, then pointed up ahead.

They could see Heino—he had almost teleported from one position to another, back to where he had started when they first saw him. But it wasn't just that. When they looked at him, they could see the wound in his stomach—it had completely healed up, as if it had never been attacked in the first place.

"Stop crying!" Fing shouted, sliding by their side. "Your girlfriend is doing just fine. She's behind us."

Liam turned his head, and it was true. He could see Safa behind them. The position they were in when they first arrived—she wasn't in her special stone form either. She was just her, and even from the look on her face, she appeared to be surprised.

She looked at her hands and immediately activated her god eyes.

'What just happened? I had just pulled the spear out of Heino's body, and then my entire body moved to here. I didn't move myself. I was forced here.'

When using her god eyes, she was trying to confirm something, and that confirmation had made her worst fears come true. The mana and Qi she had just used—all the resolve she had put in when attacking Heino—it had come back to her.

This had given her an inkling to what had occurred. When she looked at Heino, she could see it was the same. It was no illusion. She couldn't tell he had fully healed, but what was worse—the mana that was flowing around Heino—it had returned as well.

"You can tell, can't you?" Heino said as he looked at Safa in the back of the group. "You seem to be smarter than the others, and you have the god eyes. It's rare—but so is a Light Mage—and the combination means you can see through things more clearly.

"So why don't you tell them all what happened, and what's going to happen—that you have no chance of winning this fight?" Heino claimed.

"Safa… tell us," Rayna said as she gripped her hand around her spear. One of the ones she had picked up from the ground. "If we don't know, then we won't be able to figure out a way to beat him."

Safa gulped.

"I think… he was able to reverse the time, for everyone who was within his zone," Safa explained. "The reason why me and Heino moved back to our positions. It's because our bodies' time was reversed to where we were a few minutes ago.

"To when we had no wounds. To when we hadn't used any of our skills."

The group were a little shocked. They knew magic was powerful—but for it to be this powerful? To be able to slow them all down, to freeze large-scale attacks, to bring back those that had been defeated—and now there was this as well.

Heino could send himself back to the past, or a certain zone. It didn't affect anyone else's time, though—other than Safa. Meaning all of the Qi, all of the wounds they had suffered—they were still affected by it.

"If he keeps doing that, how are we meant to kill that guy!" Fing shouted.

Even with obtaining the weapons from the others, it looked as if the biggest threat on the battlefield was Heino. He needed to be dealt with, otherwise he was an individual that could change the tide of the entire war.

Heino's shoulders started to visibly move—shaking up and down—because he still had much more to show.

"These are the moments I live for," Heino claimed.

——

Elsewhere on the battlefield, they were unaware, though. One person was close. Several carriages filled with crystals had evaporated into the air, turning into nothing but particles.

While Raze sat on the floor, his hand on the power stone itself.

Energy constantly flowing through him, and his core circulating.

'I can feel it… I'm about to break into the next Star!'
