Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 845: Chaos Strikes The Academy

The normal setup of the headband students in the academy was present, with the Yellow Headband students and the Blue Headband studentsʼ areas breaking off from the main

courtyard.

They were also conducting their lessons outside in the main courtyard, following a similar lesson when they heard explosions in the distance.

”What is going on?” the students asked.

”Probably just one of the students doing a bit too much,” the teacher of the Yellow Headbands said. ”The other teachers nearby can handle the problem.”

There were three Yellow Headband teachers giving the students tips and overseeing them. They were spread out among the courtyard. As they were going through their lessons, the doors burst wide open, and they could see a few Red Headband students charging in, falling to the floor.

Some of their clothes were covered in blood.

”Close the damned door behind us, quickly, donʼt let him in!” the Red Headband student shouted.

The other two were quick to get on their feet and closed the door behind them. As they were shutting it, they could see students running toward them, but they still closed it shut anyway and decided to stay by the door.

Soon, loud bangs were heard on the door.

”No, please let us in, let us in!” the students screamed.

Not only did they scream, but they were soon using their Qi to try and attack the door, but equally, the students on the other side who were holding the door were using Qi to push it back as well.

”What is going on?” one of the teachers asked. ”How dare you not open the door to your fellow students? What do you think youʼre doing?”

”You donʼt understand!” one of the Red Headband students said. ”Thereʼs an intruder. He killed Teacher Ren! Heʼs killing all the students. He has this item thatʼs throwing small metal balls, killing everyone. We canʼt let him in! Otherwise, everyone will die!”

The teacher could see that the student had clearly gone through something. There was blood on his clothes, and another had a wound on his body. It didnʼt appear to be from a sword, yet they were so frightened that they were ignoring the pain.

”If there really is someone attacking the academy students, then even more reason why we have to let them in. We canʼt just let students stay out there. Move aside, both of you, or Iʼll deal with you myself.”

The students gulped and listened to their teacherʼs words. The moment they moved aside, the doors swung open, and a group of students, about five or so, ran in.

The doors were shut behind them, and just like the students from before, they quickly shut the door and held it closed.

”Where is the rest of your class? Where are the rest of them?” the teacher asked.

”Iʼm not sure. We all ran in different directions. Some werenʼt even able to escape,” one of the female students explained. ”I saw some running to the main academy and to the Blue Headband students... ahh, there was so much blood, so much blood.”

The teacher was trying to grasp what was going on and what the best course of action would be. If there was a large-scale attack, he should have seen multiple people, but from the sound of things, there was only a single person.

”Iʼll head to the main academy and inform Principal Amir. He will deal with the situation. The rest of you stay put, and let the teachers do all the worrying.”

Just as he was about to head to the gate door, clapping noises could be heard. The teacher turned around and saw a strange man.

Immediately, the Red Headband students fell to their knees in shock.

”Itʼs him... itʼs him... get away from him!” the female student screamed.

The teacher was still unable to comprehend what was happening and was getting ready to act when a loud bang was heard, and no longer could his mind process anything as he fell to the floor.

”Another one deleted from the world of Pagna,” Scar said. ”You know, he was a good teacher. Maybe if I had someone like him, I wouldnʼt have ended up the way I am.”

Scar disappeared from where he was, and with the students looking around, they could see he was now right next to one of the other teachers in the courtyard. A bang noise went off, and Scar disappeared again.

”Behind you, sir!” a student shouted, but it was too late.

The same bang noise was heard, and now none of the teachers were left alive. Just like that, moving around each area, there was a person who was able to take out a large number of them.

The loud sound of bangs continued, and even more students were startled than before. A repeat of what had occurred at the Red Headband area was now happening at the Yellow Headband area, and soon the same thing would happen at the Blue Headband area.

As students scattered across the main large courtyard, some of them still bleeding, they headed into the main building. However, the majority of them, after seeing their teachers fail to protect them, felt it was useless.

No one could defeat this person who was using tools, possibly artifacts, that they had never seen before, so they decided to exit out of the main academy area.

”The wall is just up ahead. We can hide out in the main town!” one of the students shouted. ”He wonʼt be able to find all of us, and we can just escape.”

There were around fifty or so students running toward the main exit. It looked to be a hundred meters up ahead. Usually, a distance they could cover in less than ten seconds, but it felt so long to them, and before they knew it, the strange man had appeared in front of them once

more.

”There are too many of you to deal with just handguns. Letʼs switch to something a bit faster,” Scar said, as the handguns disappeared from his hands, and now he was holding two larger weapons, known as Uzis. ”I might be able to go home before dinner at this rate.”
