Chapter 369 The Reason for My Name
A strange feeling was felt with Raze as he stood on his feet. His body, the Qi inside of him, it was still that of the 6th stage. His body had gotten rid of many impurities and should have been beyond that of normal human capabilities.
However, due to the injury he had received around his throat, he now had trouble with his breathing, and trouble speaking. Every breath he took, there was major pain, and the amount of oxygen that would get into his body was limited.
It was causing strange actions to occur in his body. Due to him struggling to breathe, it was hard for him to even focus on his Qi around his body. He had yet to even try using one of his skills, which he imagined would be extremely difficult.
Right now, they were all following the teachers along with the Vice Principal out of the underground facilities. They had expected the students to be relatively weak so the teachers were going to take it in turns bringing the students up.
With them having eaten already, they had enough energy to rise up by themselves, everyone had gone to the top, apart from Raze and Dame.
Amir looked at the two for the moment.
"If you need a hand, I can help." Amir asked.
"Ah, do you feel a bit guilty now, the fact that you weren't able to stop a clan head from doing this to a fellow student." Dame retorted. He was beyond annoyed at what happened before. With everything happening, things weren't quite going to plan.
While the two were talking to each other, Raze decided to go ahead, and rather than jump on the side of the rocks all the way to the top, instead he reached out, and started to pull himself up, one rock at a time.
It was a strange site, because it didn't look like that of a Pagna warrior. It was as if a regular person was scaling the wall. Still, even for a regular person to scale such a wall would take a large amount of skill and strength, and he was heading up there himself.
While Amir was looking at Raze, ready to catch him if he fell at a moment's notice. Dame quickly looked around and found the statue. He was a bit worried that the others would have seen it when they had come in, but thankfully the magic had stopped being used in the statue.
It had returned to its smaller form, and now Dame could just pick it up and take it along with him.
"I believe his larynx, something is wrong with it, it had to be Feebie's doing. She didn't outright break his cultivation so he could never use it again, but instead decided to do something more painful." Ricktor explained.
"Do you think he'll be okay then? Will he still be able to do what he wanted or thought to do?" Mada replied.
"Who knows, I'm pretty sure the Clan Head knew what she was doing, but I also think they have no idea what type of person Raze is. Let me ask you a question, how the heck did he get so much food down in that place?" Ricktor asked.
Now that they were out of the place, and Mada thought about it, wouldn't it have been impossible. There was no way out, and no one would help a no name like him by sneaking the food in.
"Your line of thinking is right, somehow, Raze managed to do the impossible. So when it comes to him, I don't want to say that it's impossible." Ricktor answered.
Just then, the long bridge that headed to the academy was in sight. They were returning after a long time, and what was in store for them, they had no idea.
"Hey, Safa, you healed your voice with your light magic right?" Liam whispered. "Then, can't you heal your brother's throat as well."
Safa remembered the look in his eyes back then. That was the first thing that was on her mind.
"He... didn't want me to."
Both Simyon and Liam were shocked by this. Why wouldn't Raze want his throat healed?
Raze, walking at the back, was carefully breathing, he was straining to put his Qi into his legs with each step.
'Using my Qi is more difficult, the breaths I take are harder. Everything that I learned as a Pagna warrior is around ten times harder with the way I am now! But, I'm going to use this, I'm going to learn how to fight like this.'
'Learn to train, and push myself to the limit, with the way my body is! You might have thought you crippled me, but I'm going to use this damned curse you think you've placed on me, and turn it back on you. The people of Pagna will learn why the name Dark Magus was feared in all of Alterian.'
