SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar
Chapter 853 The Return Of Darkness [Pt 2]
The plan was set.
"Karlia, Ciel, Kido, Edward, Emperor Kuzon, Dragon King Z'ark, and I will attack the main base." Neron declared before nodding at me.
My Automatons and Golems were going to handle the surrounding area to ensure that the people were safe, while also doing their best to handle the myriad of security protocols that my malevolent counterpart would have set in motion.
'I'll have to send my big guns to assist them. They're going to have their hands full, after all.'
My Scout Automatons pretty much gave me the laydown of the topography and geography of this world. I could teleport anyone anywhere I wanted. Plus, with my constructs occupying key areas all over, I could switch places with them at any time.
'It's not yet time for me to act. I should save that for later…'
For now, I had to focus on my task of transportation, while the real players dealt with the threat.
"Alright, everyone. Let's begin the mission."

In the massive compound that surrounded the gigantic castle belonging to the Overlord Jared, there stood a group of people, alongside an immense army.
The group comprised of none other than Jared's elite members, and they all stood behind his magnificent form as he watched the humming machine in front of him carry out its task.
The device was a towering structure made of sturdy metal and advanced technology, standing over 100 feet tall. At its core was 'The Matrix Core', a powerful energy source that could generate a beam of intense energy capable of piercing through the atmosphere and beyond.
This was the result of the combined efforts of him, Merlin and the engineer Jane Ursula. It was the main carrier of their ambition, meant to bring their goal to them.
"The time is nearly upon us." Jared whispered, his white hair fluttering as he stared into the swirling dark abyss in the sky.
With every minute, the blot increased in size and the skies around it darkened even more. The dark portal's power spread its influence around the sky, showing how much it was growing.
"Soon, very soon, we will be able to harness this power." Jared smiled.
All they had to do was wait for the portal to become stabilized. Any rash decision now would cause the event horizon to collapse, and all the expended energy they had harvested over the course of so many years would be expended.
'Ever since my death, the Matrix Core has been constantly absorbing energy and compressing it to form this high-density energy.'
They couldn't waste all their efforts and resources, so this project had to be delayed until all the right conditions were met.
'We've finally mapped a coordinate, and the sample of 'Dark Energy' has led us to its source. A world full of it… full of that ultimate power.'
With it, he would finally be able to conquer this world and everything beyond the bounds of his planet. He would conquer any and all forms of Magic, and then, rule the universe.
Those who accepted him would prosper.
Those who rejected him… ah, they would wish they were dead.
"Thank you, Jane." He whispered while glancing at the lovely fairy who stood among his subordinates. "Without you, I would never have made it this far."
The both of them were going to achieve their goals, together.
'And no one is going to stand in our w—'
>VWUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSHHHH!!!<
Before he could complete his statement, a sudden gust of wind and a wave of light appeared a good distance from him and his device.
Blue and white bursts of light danced around the sudden cluster of energy, and a group of people emerged from it.
"I knew you would come." Jared grinned, watching as each Outer made their appearance. He could also see the Midas Emperor and the Dragon King with them.
"It's perfect that you're all gathered in one place. I can just destroy you lot at once."
Still, something seemed slightly off.
While seven was a decent number for their attack, especially when considering their elite nature, he also had to consider something very important.
"Did you really come here without reinforcements? You're outnumbered, you know?"
Behind Jared, other than his Four Generals, were hundreds of thousands of troops. They consisted mainly of Golems, but powerful Mages and Warriors were also among their ranks. All in all, they were over five hundred thousand.
"You're surrounded by my army. They might be inferior to your individual quality, but together, you and your team don't stand a chance."
Of course, he knew Neron would have known that. That was what made him even more confused.
Where were they hiding their soldiers?
"Hey, Jared…" Neron suddenly spoke, causing him to glare at the dark-haired man. "... You talk too much."
The moment he said this, Jared furrowed his brow and broke into a grin. It was just like Neron to get him agitated, but he was too composed to allow that to happen.
'I was asking questions in order to feel them out. However, as expected, Neron has made sure all their lips are shut.'
Whether or not they chose to answer him was inconsequential to his plans, though. In the end, he had an insurmountable advantage.
As much as he knew that Neron must have a backup plan, he was also aware of the limits of the Midas Race and Magic Beasts—both of which seemed to be allies of the Outgroup.
'At the maximum, they should be able to squeeze in two million. The number of sentinels I have surrounding this capital is more than that amount.'
ραпdα- n૦νe|`c,0m The soldiers behind him alone were five hundred thousand, and there were many others around; in the sky, beyond the compound, and even camouflaged.
In the end, they were still outnumbered, no matter what.
Then again, what other outcome was to be expected? This plan had been in the works for so long now. Victory was pretty much inevitable.
"You're not going to stop m—"
>VWUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!<
The moment he said this, Jared suddenly saw a surge of blinding light appear before him. His eyes widened and he suddenly realized…
… Perhaps he was wrong after all.
