Earth's Greatest Magus

"Let's quickly finish this!" Said one of the bat bloodline magus in an irritated.

As the four half-blood magus came to her, Klea took a deep breath and calmed herself.

Being the last one standing while the others laid helplessly on the ground, even Magister Griffith himself was heavily wounded, was more than enough for Klea to know she could not escape this disaster. At least not through sheer strength, so she decided to use her wits instead.

"Wait! Stop!"

Her words however only sparked a wicked chuckle.

"Just relax, girl. This will all be quick, I'll make sure of that."

Seeing they were still walking towards her, completely ignoring her words, Klea decided to shout one word she was sure would get a response.

"Khaoos!"

The four Bat bloodline magus looked at her in confusion as the word had absolutely no meaning to them. But on the other hand, it managed to catch the female grand magus' full interest, as Klea could see her flying towards her.

"What do you know about Khaos?"

Seeing the other party act just as he hoped, Klea inwardly heaved a sigh of relief. Still, she understood that whatever she did from this point would literally decide her fate, hence she took a breath and looked at the grand magus before saying, "I know where it is and I can help you get it."

Zenonia glanced at Klea, and in an instant the latter could feel a crushing pressure being exerted on her. Luckily, due to her talent as a spirit reader, she managed to maintain her focus and control herself, albeit barely.

Gritting her teeth through the agonizing sensation, she looked the grand magus in the eye. "I want you to let them go, you have nothing to gain from killing them… Let them live and you will have my help." She said as confidently as she could.

Her thought of offering this kind of exchange to the female grand magus since Khaos was on the other side of the galaxy, she could try to slip away when the opportunity arose. Moreover, saving Anas and Sigurd might have added a chance to warn the people outside what happened and stop the attack. It's a fair trade.

However, Zenonia merely gave a small smile as she said, "I know where it is and I will get it myself."

As if she had expected such a response, Klea quickly replied in a calm tone that showed her confidence. "My apology, Elder, if I'm wrong, but even if you know exactly where it is, you will still need me to get it without the Nephilim faction getting in your way."

Noticing how the grand magus' expression twisted slightly, Klea realized her guess was right on point. Even so, her outward facade still held the confident demeanor she had put on from the start of this conversation.

Looking at the other party, she added an argument that strengthened her importance in this deal.

"With me, a native of the planet, I can help you get it as soon as I return. On the other hand, kill my friends, kill me, and you will never get it… because my man Emery will stop you at all cost!"

Even though she had a smile on her face, Grand Magus Zenonia still appeared as intimidating as ever as she said in an amused tone, "You are a smart little girl, aren't you? Unfortunately, things have changed."

The female grand magus slowly raised her finger and pointed it towards Klea, "I once thought I could use you to force the boy to do my bidding, but after today… that's no longer necessary. After all, in a few weeks, your planet and all around it would be mine."

Klea had her mouth wide open when she heard the grand magus. She was completely shocked, because she realized those words indirectly told about what was actually going to happen today.

As her mind was filled with a swirl of horrific thoughts, Klea didn't realize the darkness energy had gathered on Zenonia's finger that was pointing at her. She quickly tried to move her body when she realized it, but by then it was already too late, a beam of dark energy shot towards her at breakneck speed.

Swwiissshhh—

Needless to say the dark beam was a lethal attack. Alas, there was nothing Klea could do but watch as it got closer and closer, aiming to reap her life.

Spllaaattt!

Blood splattered into the air, yet Klea didn't feel any pain in her body. For that reason she immediately realized the blood wasn't hers, it belonged to Anas, the Kaleos Noble. He had blocked an attack for her again, but this time without a lifesaving item on him.

Even though the dark beam pierced through his body, casting a glaring hole as blood profusely gushed out, his action saved Klea from the attack.

"Why... why... must you do this?"

Another friend lay dying on her arm, blood gushing out from his mouth, Anas was unable to answer, but there was a certain look in his eyes that made her understand.

The young man of the Kaleos faction had been having feelings towards her for quite a while.

Klea uses her healing spell to try to save Anas's life, but she could see it dwindling by the second.

"You stupid fool…"

The female grand magus stopped for a second, looking a little surprised by the act of sacrifice. But a moment later, once again, she was ready for her second shot and this time she was going to make sure nothing got in the way.

Just as she was about to fire her spell, however, Zenonia's face experienced a shift as she suddenly felt a sharp fluctuation of energy coming from behind her. She immediately abandoned her attempt to take Klea's life to turn around.

There, Magister Griffith was hovering in the air. Thunder sparked all over his body, and his eyes brightened and shone in a purple haze.

"Zenonia! We are not done! Leave them alone! Fight me!"

His hands were brought together in front of his chest as a powerful ball of lightning lay there, getting bigger and bigger with every passing moment, ready to be thrown.

Zenonia calmly said to Klea, "Look… at least you successfully gave him time to recover," before flashing a smile at Magister Griffith as she shook her head and said, "You should have stayed down."
