Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 973: A Transfer Of Power



Unlocking what had happened with her brother, that was the reason why Safa had pushed herself into this situation. Why she had gone further than originally intended. She had somewhat learned the truth already from one of the Rylon Religion members, but she couldn't quite believe it.

Raze, her brother, was part of the religious cult, and he had agreed to sacrifice their whole family? What for—to summon a Divine being from above, and then take their power to be delivered to another figure known as the Sun God.

Not only did the ritual sound ridiculous and unbelievable, but the reason for her brother doing such actions sounded ridiculous as well. When trapped in the magic circle she thought back again and again to those times.

How was her brother? Was he angry at their parents for never living a life of luxury, for never having a single day with no food in his belly? The more she thought about it, the more she remembered the times she saw resentment on his face.

Although he would always face Safa with a smile, there was something behind the smile. The reason she was having all of these thoughts was because she knew with her god eyes that the energy that she was looking at from above, that was making its way down towards Charlotte, was the power of a Divine being.

'If this is true, then maybe everything my brother did... it was true as well. I hate to say it, I hate to even think it, but taking the lives of our mother and father... maybe him disappearing from this world was the right thing for him, and for him to be replaced by Raze.' She hated that she thought this way and her heart ached when she did.

Yet she had to accept this reality as she looked up at the Divine being that was in the room, which was a cloud of mist in her eyes, that was forming a shape of a person. No one else in the room could see the person's presence.

'Just like what we had heard from Bargo and the others. A Divine being summoned from sacrifice—it has happened again and might be what my brother originally tried to perform, but with what the Divine being was saying before, is it trying to help us in this situation? Should I try and accept it?'

The Divine being's form was being pulled closer to Charlotte; there was a clear resistance from its part.

'If I enter this body, then my life will be taken away,' the strange voice said. 'Maybe most would have no idea what this is, but I can read the formations that are present on the ground; I know what is going to happen to me.'

With these thoughts in its mind, it didn't even let Safa have a choice. It started to lift its hand and the strange energy started to swirl around the room. As it went past the others it felt like gusts of wind hit their faces yet no part of their bodies would move, like if it were wind.

'The energy—he's not gathering it around me... I thought he would be,' Safa realized.

When the energy swirled around the room, it condensed to a certain place, and it was the rubble that was left on the floor-the small pieces of rubble from the statue's original size before magic was embedded into it.

They rolled across the floor until they had reached the magical transformation, going past Carl with no bother.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Carl had no idea what was going on, only believing that the ritual was a success and that maybe he would be getting two Divine beings. The rubble continued to move until it leapt up and touched Safa's body.

'This is a good powerful item. It was the power of many powerful beings, I can tell. With its power added to yours, it should be able to allow you to face most in this world.'

The rubble started to form around Safa's skin; it grew in size until it covered her body completely. She looked to be a statue frozen in place. Slowly though, the rubble started to melt away—at least in appearance it did-instead it was being absorbed into her skin and the power was being transferred inside of her.

The moment the absorption was complete, her dantian that held her Qi smashed to pieces, and blood spewed out from her mouth. She hurled over, staring at the ground, more blood dripping from her mouth.

"SAFA!" Simyon shouted. His body still hadn't healed and he ran straight past the others; it was only a moment later that he had been hit by Carl and was knocked back through the air in the direction he had come from.

Meanwhile, Safa could see that the large energy that was above had dissipated. A lot of power had already disappeared from this individual, but she was now far more concerned about her own condition that she was in.

'Your body was weaker than I thought. The power can't combine with you, as there is too large of a difference between the two of you. At this rate you will end up dead. I only have one thing that I can do myself. I have to heal you.

"I have already decided that I will try not to survive. I know there is a chance that all of us will perish if I do. So instead, I wish for you to get punishment on my behalf!"

The energy started to come towards Safa instead of Charlotte and then willingly went in her body. It was going right through her eyes, and every single open pore that was in her body.

'I told you, don't resist and just accept my power. I won't take presence anywhere in your body. I have decided to sacrifice myself. Save yourself, save your friends, and heed my warning... never go to the Divine realm, avoid it at all costs.'
