Earth's Greatest Magus Chapter 1879  Oculus Magus

"ARGHH!!! You!! You dare!! You are helping the elves!" The dark magus's furious accusation reverberated through the chamber, his voice seething with anger and indignation.

Ery's response was a slight, sardonic smile that danced upon his lips. "Ahh, don't be a crybaby; your arm will grow back in a minute... But if you don't tell what's going on," he continued, his voice dripping with threat, "I will cut more parts." He raised his gleaming blade nacingly, the glint of danger unmistakable in his eyes.

The tension in the room hung palpably in the air as Ery's demand for answers intensified. In response to Ery's actions, the other mbers of the Oculus faction magus reacted swiftly. They began to encircle him, forming a tight-knit defensive periter. Their intent was becoming increasingly evident, and Ery remained vigilant, wary of their every move.

"Huh... acting so tough... this one's not really a Nephilim, just rcenaries," one of the magus said to their companions in hushed tones.

"Don't underestimate him; he has the golden mark, a top 100 rank" another magus cautioned, their voice tinged with a hint of wariness. Ery sighed, assessing the situation with a keen eye. He had encountered one full moon magus and six half-moon magus. It was clear that these individuals had access to information about him, yet they either possessed unwavering confidence or arrogance that clouded their judgnt. With the situation escalating and their aggression becoming apparent, Ery realized it was ti for a more formal introduction.

"Kill him!!" The order from one of the Oculus faction magus echoed through the chamber with a chilling finality. In response, all seven dark magus imdiately activated their faction's unique speciality – a transformation that cloaked their bodies in a dark and distinctive armor, their forms adorned with patches of the mysterious material that exuded aura of darkness. This transformation not only granted them formidable protection but also enhanced the power of their spells with the dark elent.

Sensing the imminent threat and the killing intent of the dark magus, the high elf who had been Ery's captive, spoke up urgently, "Release , and I will help you fight." Ery, confident in his abilities but intrigued by the high elf's intention he decided to accept the offer.

At the sa ti he released the elf, the dark magus started their attack.

Ery and the high elf found themselves beset by a barrage of combined darkness spells: dark lightning, dark flas, and swirling dark clouds filled with malevolent winds. The onslaught was relentless, but Ery had a strategic plan in mind. He focused on playing a defensive role, channeling his nature magic to conjure roots and stone barriers to shield himself from the onslaught, all the while closely observing how the high elf would handle the situation.

Despite being only a half-moon elf, the high elf's abilities proved to be impressive. Swiftly, he ford multiple icy-cold energy rings, using them to both defend against the incoming dark spells and launch counterattacks. His control and proficiency in ice elents was precise and efficient, making him a formidable force in the battle.

Ery continued to maintain his defensive posture, recognizing that the labyrinthine structure was on the verge of shifting once again. Just monts before it did, Ery seized the opportunity to unleash his new skill once again. both light and nature energy coursed through his [Gentle sword], transforming it into a radiant energy blade full of the power of nature.

[Nature Edge]

The unexpected power surge caught two of the dark magus off guard, breaking through their defenses and inflicting severe wounds.

"He's strong!!" one of the dark magus exclaid in astonishnt. Ery's attack, not only wounded the two dark magus but also created a path through the encirclent. Simultaneously, the labyrinthine structure began its shifting motion once more, opening and closing new path for them.

To Ery's surprise, the high elf did not seize the opportunity to escape. Instead, he remained resolute, prepared to engage the dark magus for a second round of combat. Ery couldn't help muttering to himself, "Huh... is he a fool or what."

As the structure shifted around them, the skirmish briefly ca to a halt. Both sides seed to be probing, uncertain whether another party would join the fray. When no reinforcents appeared, Ery took the initiative once again, addressing the dark magus, "Are you sure you want to do this?" The high elf's response was unwavering, as they launched another attack, refusing to entertain any conversation or truce. The battle raged on, as the dark magus and the high elf unleashing their powers with fierce determination.

Ery, however, had seen enough. Realizing it was ti to reveal his true capabilities, he invoked his special skill, [Void Mist], an ability that disrupted his opponents' senses and spirit readings. The Oculus faction magus reacted with shock as they began to understand the deception that had been played on them.

"He's a space magic user!!" the full moon dark magus exclaid in realization, their voices filled with alarm. But by the ti they had figured it out, it was already too late. Within the mist, Ery charged with incredible speed and precision. His sharp blades found their targets one by one, and screams of terror filled the chamber.

When the [Void Mist] finally dissipated, only one wounded full moon dark magus remained hovering in the air, the rest having been reduced to lifeless corpses scattered across the ground.

"You... what are you!!" the lone survivor stamred in fear and disbelief, his voice quaking.

Ery paid no heed to the trembling magus. Instead, he turned his attention to the high elf, who now wore a different expression. Ery's voice was firm and resolute as he addressed the high elf, "This is the last ti I am going to ask. Tell what's going on."

The high elf's expression shifted. With a sigh, he finally acquiesced, "It appears you really are not part of them. Alright, I will tell you." Before the high elf could begin sharing the long-awaited answers, the dark magus unleashed a surge of power that seed to transcend his previous abilities. His body was almost entirely encased in a formidable dark armor, radiating an aura of power that exceeded his earlier displays.

Bolstered by his profound mastery of fire elents, the dark magus streaked toward the high elf like a blazing cot, determined to strike him down. The high elf desperately attempted to defend himself by creating multiple massive ice rings as barriers, but the dark magus's assault shattered each one with ease.

Just as the dark magus was about to make contact with the high elf, Ery [blink] placed him directly in the path of the oncoming attack. With both of his swords charged, He unleashed [Dao Edge], a cross slash of imnse power. The collision of the two mighty forces resulted in a cataclysmic burst of energy that not only shattered the dark magus's attack but also cleaved his body into four separate pieces.

The chamber was filled with the grueso aftermath of the battle. Ery took a deep breath, turned his attention to the high elf, and remarked, "That's very rude of him... Now, what were you saying?"
