Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 621 - Together

Right now, the magus was giving Emery and his friends some space, so they could converse with just the five of them.

Klea and the others were at a loss on how they should react. All of them knew about the fact that Emery had some kind of secret regarding his meteoric-like strength, but this was the first time they really gained knowledge of it.

An ancient existence called Primordial Wisp which was in solitary stage; that's the name the Magus Universe had bestowed to the source of power Emery had. A kind of power that is strong enough to make a Grand Magus level individual to go crazy over.

The five of them were silent. It seemed neither of them would open their mouths until they had finished trying to process the new information they had just heard.

"So… this.. Being.. has been on Earth all this time..?"

Emery shook his head at that. "No… Remember about the incident in our first year?"

He reminded them that the event was, in fact, involved the enemy of mankind. The elves hence it was better for all of them to keep this information to themself.

Emery couldn't help but worry that there was something even problematic behind the source where Khaos came from.

Meanwhile, Klea could be seen busy tinkering with the holographic cube that is currently hovering above her palm. Her eyes glazed as her mind searched for the information that they all wanted to know.

"I can't seem to find anything notable regarding Primordial Wisp in the academy database. However, here it is stated that it was considered as the being that brought evolution to the universe.." Klea drawled her words as a thoughtful expression appeared on her face.

"I wonder what this means.." She added as an indistinct glint passed over her eyes.

On the other hand, Thrax looked a little irritated because he couldn't really keep up with the situation.

"What are you guys worrying about? If one enemy comes, then we fight them. If one hundred arrive, then we shall fight them fearlessly. If one million-"

Julian quickly interrupted the Thracian "Yeah.. yeah.. We understand there, champ!"

Emery then noticed that Chumo looked a little restless than usual. He was guessing knowing the fact about grand magus Zenoia worried him even more. He, after all, spent a lot of his time at the Darkness Institute.

Understanding the situation, Emery closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened them again, a determined yet pained look flashed across them. He said

"It's probably for the best if you guys take your distance with me.." Emery said in a calm voice. "I really hate if you guys are troubled later just because of your association with me."

Thrax immediately became annoyed by Emery's words, but it was Klea who beat everyone and was the one who scolded him.

"You!" Klea said loudly. "Did you still not get it? It's no longer just about you Emery!. As long as it still exists on Earth, this isn't just your problem. It is Earth's problem. Our problem." "So stop facing this on your own!" Klea exploded, not in anger but in annoyance.

She took a deep breath and then added "You should share this burden with us, that's why we are here!'

Even though she was scolding him, Emery surprisingly felt his emotions being lifted up as he heard those harsh yet truthful words. He himself knew that it was wrong for him to bear all of this responsibility alone. Even so, he still insisted.

Letting a small inaudible sigh, Emery firmed his determination and said, "I'm really sorry guys… I will definitely try my best to deal with this matter as soon as possible."

"See? You are only thinking about yourself again?!" Klea scoffed. "Huh! You really can't be helped!" She turned her head away from Emery, annoyed by the latter's attitude.

Julian decided to intervene. "Alright, we all know that the situation about Emery is dire, but we have a lot on our plate. So I think we should do this one problem at a time." With serious determination, he continued. "At first, we should focus on the upcoming game and make sure Emery passes level five no matter what it takes."

"Huh, Roman! I thought that you had another team to suck up with!" Thrax mocked. "So you want to join us now.. Huh, shameless!!"

The others saw Julian's face gradually turn red. It was clear that the latter tried his best to handle Thrax's strings of curses.

Taking a deep breath to calm his almost exploding temper, Julian spoke. "Yes.. The truth is I was asked by the Harlights to join their team. I even tried to convince Klea to join the Kaleos team.."

The Thracian quickly became angry when he heard what Julian said, but Emery immediately gave the former a look as he wanted Julian to finish what he had to say.

"Yes. As I said, I'm thinking about the big picture. Now that we know that our planet is in such a dire situation: the Nephilims and that Grand Magus Zenonia, then we are also in dire need of allies!"

"Don't you get it?! Earth was just a tiny little planet that could be crushed by any of them."

A serious expression could be seen on Julian's face as he spoke his next words.

"So yes. It's true that I curry favor with those families and I'm not going to deny that. But I did all that because I was trying to get their support or whatever could give us better leverage against what will be waiting for us in the near future."

He then turned to Thrax and stared at the latter straight in the eyes as he said, "Do you think it's easy to bow your head to someone like them..? Do you really think I enjoy doing those things?!!"

Emery quickly approached Julian who turned emotional and grabbed his shoulder. Thrax, on the other hand, surprisingly remained silent and didn't reply to the latter as he usually did.

After making sure his Roman friend was fine, Emery asked softly. "So what do you think we should do? Should we each go to a different team?"

Emery's words quickly made Chumo tense up, but he relaxed when he saw Julian shaking his head.

"No… We should be in one team for this game."

Emery was surprised by that. He couldn't hold himself from asking.

"Why?"

Julian glanced at Emery, looking at the latter as if he was an idiot.

"What else do you think Emery? With you going to privilege class, this will probably be the last time we fight together as a team, so we should make the best out of it.!"

He then turned to others and said, "Our friend here belongs to the privileged class. So let's give him the best goodbye gift by making a memorable record in the game. What do you guys think?"

Thrax immediately lunged for Julian and embraced his shoulders. "My man!! That's more like it!"

Julian could only smile helplessly as his body was rocked back and forth by the Thracian's hug.

Emery looked at the only girl in the group waiting for her answer.

Noticing the look given to her, she said, "Of course I'm in. Without me, you guys will not pass even level one!"

The group burst into laughter with Klea's arrogant remarks.

Meanwhile, Chumo sneakily turned his head to the side. Without anyone realizing it, Chumo was moved by the situation.

Julian's helpless smile, Thrax's rambunctious laugh, Klea's proud smirk, and Chumo's heartwarming tear; A beautiful smile bloomed on his face as Emery looked at the four people around him and thought this might be one of the moments they would remember for the rest of his life.
