As soon as Raze said the word "Attack," the creatures made from his dark magic all started to move. With no real form but fighting figures, the Behemoth Clan members were confused about what to do.
Some tried to attack the strange presence, their weapons going through them. Others attempted to ignore them but ended up getting hurt.
After these strange creatures would get hit by the sword, the Dark Magic within them would practically explode, hurting several of them in the area.
Seeing this, the clan members were at a loss of what to do.
The army felt like they were fighting against ghosts, yet those entities could certainly do them harm while they were unable to do anything else.
Seeing all of the creations, the Crimson Crane members were left there, amazed. It was the first time they had seen one person doing so much in a grand battle.
"The powers the Dark Magus has been showing us, they seem to just keep growing day by day," Reno claimed.
"I guess it wasn't just me that thought that then. He is far stronger than when we first met him, and those strange powers he had like that of the Light Faction Elder… they're growing as well," Kizer commented.
The real thought on the Crimson Crane's mind was just how could this even be possible. Even the most talented individuals in the world of Pagna never showed this much growth.
"What are you all doing!" Alba shouted. "We know the effects of the pill he has just taken; this is our chance now… this is our chance to strike back and send them away!"
The Crimson Crane members smiled as they heard this; it was time to give them payback while they were distracted with what was going on.

Raze, who was on top of the rooftop, picked up his sword and swung it several times, creating images of more deadly creatures appearing.
Mainly dark wolves would come off from his swing and hit certain areas, hurting multiple of the men. With everything that was happening, something natural had occurred with them all.
It was fear. With the pillars gone and the great attack from this individual they didn't understand, the thought was creeping into their minds.
Over half of them had already been defeated, and if this continued, all of them could very well die.
It was an uncommon feeling for those in the Demonic Faction, in the Behemoth Clan. But at times, charging in knowing that one would die in war, with that resolve, was fine, because they knew what they were expecting.
Now, they were experiencing the fear of the unknown, and bit by bit, more and more from the Behemoth Clan started to retreat, until the full force was seen running away.
"The Behemoth Clan… they're no longer attacking, they're retreating!" One of the warriors said, lifting his sword, blood marks on his clothes and a grave wound on the top of his head, but he didn't care.
The people behind him had tears of joy as the sight unfolded in front of them.
"We did it, we defeated the Behemoth Clan, we did it!" They continued to cheer loudly.
"No, it wasn't just us, the Crimson Crane and the Dark Magus, it was because of them two that we did it, that we protected everyone!"
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})Huge cheers that shook the entire town were heard, chanting the Crimson Crane and the Dark Magus's names, echoing until the public and the town hall could hear what was going on.
Coming out from their hiding spots, coming out from the town hall, in the distance, they could see the smiles of the men that had fought hard.
There was also one person who had just witnessed everything, every fiber in his body was shaking after all that he had seen in the battle.
"Quickly!" Bubble shouted. "Get me sheets of paper and plenty of ink; I have to write down everything that I saw!"
Like a madman, Bubble started to write the events, every detail of what he had seen, including the great shield, pills, magical powers, and more.
The issue was, the more he was writing it down, the more far-
fetched everything sounded. It was as if he was writing some type of fantasy novel, exaggerating the truth.
The people, they would never believe the words that were written here, and they would think of it as an exaggeration. It would hit his reputation as a valid news outlet.
Taking a deep breath, in the end, he had to make a decision, to report the matter in a way that the people could take in, that the people could understand, and report on the facts of what had occurred that day.
The Dark Magus can create not just Qi pills but items as well.
The people in Flendon took up arms, and thanks to the Qi pills and support of the Crimson Crane, they managed to fight back against the Behemoth Clan.

It all failed because everyone had underestimated the strength of the Dark Magus.
The Behemoth Clan had not only lost a battle but had also lost two of the strongest members of the Clan.
There was so much more that Bubble wanted to report, but the world wasn't ready for it yet. As more people got information bit by bit, then Bubble could start informing everyone of what was happening.
Even now, he was looking at the equipment that he was using.
"There is still a lot that this world knows nothing about… and I will reveal everything out there to everyone," Bubble claimed. "Release the report!"
The news from Bubble's outlets reached every faction, every inch of the content, as people spread the news of what had occurred.
There was infighting in the Demonic Faction, and out of that infighting, an incredibly strong figure had appeared.
One of those that had read the report had the biggest smile on his face. In the depths of his clan's base, Belil had a wide grin on his face.
"Haha, Sha Mo had sent more people than I thought he would… honestly, if I knew what was going to happen, I would have sent one of my sons to protect them!" Belil claimed.
"Yet, despite that, his two pillars were killed, and we all know what will happen once the pillars are destroyed, the whole thing will come crashing down with just a little push."
"Both Rayna and the Dark Magus have done splendidly. I should reward them for everything that has occurred!" Laughter continued from Belil as he wondered just how would Sha Mo react to all of this now.
What would become of the Behemoth Clan? Regardless, all of that would have to wait because there was no more time left; the Martial Arts Tournament, where all three factions would meet, had arrived.
