Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 1607: Space Fight

Karat faction was not just the founding family of the Golden City. It was also the biggest and most prestigious among all the factions living in the city. In fact, it wouldnʼt be an exaggeration to say that they were the absolute rulers of the prosperous city.

The middle-aged man with long brown hair who stood in front of the woman – a peak Full Moon magus – quickly stepped forward to shield her from the two. He drew a luxurious sword that glowed as he said, ”Put down your weapon and explain yourself right now!”

Faced with such a situation, Emery and Armand couldnʼt help but turn their heads towards the two Raven magus, Ante and Hellast. However, it seemed that they were also shocked and unable to make up their minds.

Before anyone could say anything, their attention was drawn to a bright light that suddenly came from behind them, which was immediately followed by a tremor that could be felt in the space.

The two Raven mages could only reveal helpless smiles when they saw their master Cyrus making his way towards them with the spirit soul of the Full Moon magus he fought earlier. Meanwhile, an angry scream rang out from the long-haired man.

”You killed him?! You dare to kill a member of the Karat faction!? You deserve to die!!”

Since he had just arrived, there was a moment of confusion before the Raven faction master finally seemed to have realized what was going on.

The man let out a maniacal snicker. Staring at the pair of man and woman, Cyrus crushed the spirit soul as he coldly said, ”No witnesses! Kill them both!”

It was a logical choice, but it seemed that the man didnʼt know who Tessa was. Unfortunately, before Emery could say anything Cyrus had taken action.

The man led the assault by casting a Tier 6 thunder spell [Rampant Lightning]. Erratic streams of powerful lightning rapidly spread across the entire ship, destroying the ship apart from inside and instantly killing the two saint-level Karat warriors who steered the ship.

After that, the battle took place in outer space.

Not a single word could be said in the dark void, hence there was basically no room for negotiation as the battle between the two sides kicked off.

Since they were in the advantageous numbers of five against two, with a hand signal, Cyrus ordered everyone to attack at the same time, not giving the two a chance to retaliate because he couldnʼt afford them to escape.

The first thought that came to Emeryʼs mind was to jump in the middle and stop the fight from erupting. However, it was clear that neither side would be able to compromise.

The Full Moon magus of the Karat faction looked as if he was ready to fight to the death to protect the woman, which meant it was still uncertain that the Raven faction would end up victorious.

After all, no one could say for sure they could survive against a determined Full Moon magus.

That was why, so as not to get caught up in the clash between the two giants, Emery decided to move to the side. There, he could properly observe the situation and wait for the right opportunity.

On the other hand, Armand seemed eager for an achievement as he decided to send out his glowing daggers after seeing Magus Ante charge towards the battle brandishing his lightning spear.

The long-haired Karatʼs Magus swung his sword in a graceful motion, deflecting Anteʼs spear and all of Armandʼs daggers with ease. At the same time, his eyes vigilantly watched Emery and Hellast who both had moved to the sides surrounding the two of them.

But of course, most of his attention was placed on Magus Cyrus who appeared to be recharging his thunder power.

Seeing an opportunity, Hellast darted towards Tessa from behind, and this was enough to distract the Karat swordsman.

At the same time, Cyrus joined the fray at full power. Bringing his hands together, sparks of lightning appeared as he separated them before quickly coalescing into a massive crackling blade. In the next second, his figure disappeared and shot towards the magus swordsman.

Distracted by Hellastʼs action, the Karat magus was forced to parry. He swung his sword as fast as lightning, forming a mirage of hundred swords to greet the massive blade. Alas, even though his attack was powerful, it still wasnʼt enough to completely stop Cyrusʼ attack.

BAMMM!!!

A huge explosion occurred as the swordsman found himself knocked backwards. But even though he lost the clash, he didnʼt receive much damage as apparently his high-tier sword was able to deal with the destructive lightning inflicted by Cyrusʼ attack. 𝖗𝘼Nȯ฿ËṤ

As much as Emery would love to see a more impressive sword fight, he unfortunately didnʼt have much time because the effect of the [Space Walk Potion] would wear off in a few minutes.

He needed to settle the fight quickly.

When he saw the Karat swordsman separated from Tessa by a considerable distance due to the previous clash, Emery immediately cast [Light Wing] and soared through space at a blinding speed. His figure quickly appeared before the woman, whereupon he punched her in the stomach before she could even react.

Thanks to his battle power, his punch was enough to instantly knock Tessa into a semi-unconscious. Of course, the swordsman immediately charged at him when he realized such an act. Unfortunately for him, Emery was faster as he pulled out the [Moon Dagger] and placed it on her neck.

With just one opportune move and a simple gesture, Emery was able to end the battle with the Karat mage letting go of his sword, a sign of surrender.

Seeing this, the Raven faction master had a wide smile on his face. He was about to sentence the two to death when Emery quickly raised his hand and shook his head. His insistence elicited a raised eyebrow from the man.

This time, Cyrus was fortunately willing to listen. After they grabbed the cargo they were here for, they quickly brought the two captives into their ship.

Finally, now that they got a good look at them, more precisely the female magus, Cyrus finally realized who she was.

Terra Karat, one of the descendants of the Old Devil, Supreme Magus Rosin Karat.

Upon realizing that, Cyrus and the others turned pale. ”Our faction is doomed.”
