Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 795: Creating The Army

Harvey was currently on a work shift after returning. He had been buried deep in paperwork since being assigned the Ashley Case. To his dislike, a statement had already been released, stating it was impossible for Enaxx to commit the crime.

That the rumors about him are false. Since he is a high figure looked up to, there are always those trying to take him down. The news report even showed live footage of Enaxx at another shoot at the time of death.

Whatʼs more, the footage of a person cloaked in a robe was seen entering Ashleyʼs room at the time of her death.

All of this just made it seem like the footage of the person sneaking in was meant to be found, and it was all annoying Harvey the more he looked at the work. The thing was, he knew there was nothing he could do.

When the higher-ups had asked for a statement, he already knew this was going to happen, which was why he had passed the task to his partner who was at the scene. The issue now was, the higher-ups were asking him to come up with a suspect.

ʼThereʼs only one fucking person guilty,ʼ Harvey thought, tapping his pen against his table. He looked out the glass at his fellow workers and was glad he was in his own separate cubicle, otherwise they would have been able to feel the intense rage in the room.

ʼNow theyʼve come here and given me a list of suspects. Those that have written a few bad things about Ashley online, another guest on her show, and fellow colleagues as well as a boyfriend.ʼ

ʼThey want me to pin it on one of these, come up with some fake evidence and close the case.ʼ

The thing was, knowing who it was, Harvey didnʼt want to do it all. Yet the calls didnʼt stop. In order to distract himself from the situation, Harvey closed the file on Ashley and instead another case had appeared.

”The Death of A Glory Guild Commander,” Harvey said to himself as he looked at the report. It was an internal report on the police file, no information had been released about what had occurred, and finding that strange, Harvey looked into it. The good news was, it appeared they had no clue who had done such a thing.

Even more so, they didnʼt really know why. The only thing they could guess was either it was a hire kill, by one of his victims, or revenge personally. Yet, out of all the victims that Bronk dealt with, it was unlikely they could do anything.

They werenʼt strong enough or more skilled than a 6-star mage, and similarly, they didnʼt have the funds to hire someone that would have been able to take care of a 6-star mage, which was why they were stumped.

There was one interesting thing the file did have though, and that was the investigation that was run.

”Experts believe that there have been traces of Dark Magic used, the case has now been passed onto the Cerebus Team.”

The Cerebus Team was one he had seen a few times, and he noticed that these were the ones that dealt with the guilds belonging to the Guild of the Grand Magus and the Grand Magus itself.

Not just that, but if a report or case was moved to the Cerebus Team, then Harvey had no access to any information whatsoever, even at his level.

ʼThere is a Cerebus Guild, and when I looked into it they were linked to one of the Grand Magus as well.ʼ

ʼThey were mostly funded by Gizin, who seemed to be testing out some enhancing products from them. In some cases, they are practically a guild under Gizinʼs control.ʼ

ʼIt could just be the names are similar or there really is a link to this.

ʼAll of the Grand Magus have powerful guilds under their control. Idore with his Noble Guild, the strongest and top Guild in the world.

ʼThen the link with Gizin and the Cerebus Guild. You then have Ibarin and the Mage Academy. Although they arenʼt a guild.ʼ

ʼFrom my knowledge the whole board of the academy is under his thumb. They would be out of a job and lose their prestige if they didnʼt follow him.ʼ

ʼSo there are some of the most powerful mages in there. On top of that, the students, although they might not be loyal to the academy itself, they would do anything to get on his good side. Heʼs a hard variable with how strong his force is.ʼ

ʼThen there is Enaxx and his Glory Guild, someone who seems to take in anyone no matter what their criminal background, all for the sake of having a powerful guild.ʼ

ʼThe reason why the Glory Guild doesnʼt compete with the Noble Guild is because of Idore and his enchanted items leaving them for his very best. Allowing them to be more than just strong mages.ʼ

ʼThen if weʼre looking at strong mages we would have to look at him.ʼ

Minimizing his screen once again, on his desktop there was an image of one of the Grand Magus, with a scarf wrapped around his neck, and strange green eyes that drew people in.

The green eyes of death. ”Trubin, who is rumored to be the strongest mage there is out there. A Grand Magus that is only used in the most extreme of cases.”

”It was because of him, and the show of his power that the whole world was able to accept the Grand Magus as a force in the first place.”

”Heʼs the only one that doesnʼt have a guild.”

While thinking about all of this, Harveyʼs watch started to beep, he could see the time, it was 5:00 PM, it was time for him to clock out of his work for the day.

ʼThe meeting is in two hours, so I have time to drop by... thinking of all of these Grand Magus and their guilds, I need to get rid of one of them, and soon... the one thatʼs annoying me the most right now is Enaxx.ʼ

ʼBut to take out the Glory Guild weʼll need an army, and itʼs a good thing Iʼm creating one.ʼ Harvey said as he stood up and left the office.
