Chapter 548 An Awkward Conversation

Alba was stunned for a moment as she looked at Rayna. She had to pinch herself on her arm just to check if she was seeing things.

She had only met with Rayna a few months ago, and it was the first meeting between the two. Honestly, she was surprised back then, and to constantly run into a person like this was quite shocking.

"Wait, you know if you're found here, what will happen to you? The Dark Faction will be after you, they could kidnap you and ask the Demonic Faction all sorts of demands," Alba said, already looking over her shoulder.

"It's not anything to worry about," Rayna replied. "Besides, the Dark Faction are fools if they think like that; they should know that the Demonic Faction clans don't care for hostages no matter who they are."

"If we are captured by the enemy side, then that is just our fault and our situation to get out of."

Alba let out a nervous chuckle. She had only been in the Dark Faction for a short while, but she had already forgotten how crazy the Demonic Faction members were compared to the other two factions.

"Anyway, what is the reason that you want to find the Dark Magus so bad?" Tilon asked as he placed the shield on his back.

Tilon was getting a little nervous because he wanted the Dark Magus to make his shield next. The last thing he wanted was for him to be swept off his feet somewhere before it was his turn.

When the question was asked, Rayna could feel her face starting to warm up slightly. "It's a... it's a personal and important matter!" Rayna claimed. "I did a lot to find out where your members were. You were the only active Crimson Crane members, so do you mind telling me where the Dark Magus is?"

Both Alba and Tilon looked at each other. With them having already made so many enemies, Alba thought it was a good opportunity to start earning some favors as well.

"We actually don't know where he is, but we might be able to help you find him. If I were to take a guess, he's most likely in the Dark Faction at the moment," Alba answered.

Tilon's shoulders shrugged down as he heard this, but Alba gave him a quick pat on the back. "Don't worry, we'll turn in these powerstones for some rare materials to the Moon Shield Clan."

"Then when we meet the Dark Magus, he can make your shield as we go to him."

Tilon's face lit up in an instant, and now oddly the three of them were traveling together.

In the city where the Lethal Bite Clan resided, there were no more problems from their neighbors of the Demonic Faction. No more attacks occurred, and the city could now focus on rebuilding itself.

"What this means for all of you is you are free to do as you wish. I know all of you have your own things going on, so take a break, spread your wings, and when I need to come find you, me and Charlotte will come just as we did before," Himmy answered.

A part of Raze was a bit disappointed. He was hoping that he would have been able to go to Alter to receive a few items or knowledge about a few things.

Yet it seemed that right now, it wasn't the right time for that. Which made him think, what should he do now?

After Himmy had said everything, it was time for the group to say their goodbyes. If the others were wandering aimlessly he didn't want to be a part of that, so the group decided to split up.

With that, Raze thought it was best for him to get supplies as he decided his next move to another city.

'My strength, is it enough to take on the principal? If it's not, I could focus on increasing my strength further and go for another one of the Dark Faction Clans, or I could enter a dimension to get a crystal and try to increase my magic.'

As Raze continued to walk though, he noticed that there was someone by his side, who had been following him.

"And what is it that you want?" Raze asked.

"Nothing, just to stay by your side," Anna explained. "I have no tasks so I can focus on finding my own kind. You met with Zon once, so maybe if I stick with you, there is a chance that I can meet with Zon again."

Raze hadn't been with Anna for long, but he knew one thing about her already, it was that she was quite stubborn and it would be nearly impossible for him to get rid of her.

"I will be doing my own matters that might not fit in with Alter's, everything you see with me, you are not to report," Raze immediately said.

"Of course, we are off the job and I would say the same for me," Anna replied.

With the two of them walking in the middle of the street, a particular trio had walked past them, and one of them took a second look, and moved directly in front of Raze.

"Wait... is it you... is that you?"

When Raze looked at who was in front of him, his eyes were glued to the woman.

"Alba..."
