Earth's Greatest Magus-Novel

"Gone? She's gone!?" Emery asked in disbelief.

He simply couldn't believe it. His fear did come true as he was still too late despite everything.

"Where is she? Where did she go?"

Unfortunately for him, the answer he received from the Sword Saint was nothing but a shake of his head. It was clear the latter had no idea where Klea had gone.

Emery wanted to ask more, but quickly backtracked when he saw people approaching them with killing intent. A group of several dark elf warriors were ferociously charging towards them with their curved swords brandished.

However, they seemed to be hit from the back as their bodies suddenly launched forward. Not wasting this golden opportunity, when the dark elf warriors lost their balance, both Emery and Olivier drew their swords and immediately attacked, killing most of them without mercy.

Distraught by the news of Klea's disappearance, Emery raised one of his arms, took out his [Blade Claw], and cast his gravity spell [Attraction], to pull one of the heavily wounded elves to him.

Spllaaaaattt!

His claw pierced deeply into the dark elf's chest. While slowly draining the life of his prey, Emery gazed at him in rage,

"Where are you sending them?!" His blade pierced deeper as he shouted again, "Answer my question!!"

Alas, the only response he received from the elf was a wicked smile unwilling to say anything, forcing Emery to decapitate his head,

Splaaaatttt!

Emery could only scream in agony as his wolf-savage nature was about to consume him.

Meanwhile, another figure was approaching the two from the direction the dark elf warriors had come from.

The other party, who was the owner of the weapon embedded on the backs of some of the dark elf warriors, was someone both of them immediately recognized. The widely known Nephilim protégé, Eeshoo Nephilim.

As he walked towards the two, he spoke words that seemed to be directed at Emery.

"Calm down! Stop thinking about your friends and focus on helping stop this madness. The alliance will definitely help you get that information for you afterward." He then added, "So if you're really worried, you just need to make sure this matter gets sorted out as soon as possible."

Eeshoo's words, while appearing cold-hearted, managed to wake Emery up as he quickly took a deep breath to calm himself. The former was correct, there was nothing he could do at this point but blindly search for Klea while the elves were still wreaking havoc.

Emery regained his composure, while Olivier stepped forward and spoke to the two. "The Headmaster Staff, we need to seize it as quickly as possible so we can stop the recall spell. Maybe then we can use it to reverse the spell."

It was a rather simple solution, one Olivier had heard of in the time dilation he had experienced. However, they were too late to stop the disaster on that alternate timeline. But now, they might have a chance.

What Olivier suggested was of course not for them, mere acolytes, joining the battle of the grand magus. Instead, knowing Emery had just arrived with three powerful half-blood elders as reinforcement, the Sword Saint suggested that Emery tell them to focus on trying to obtain the staff.

Since the plan made perfect sense, it didn't take long for Emery to agree.

"Alright!"

Without wasting any more time, Emery cast [Blink] and made his way toward where the elders were fighting.

His journey was not easy, as he had to make sure not to receive stray attacks. What's more, it required him to use his strongest defensive spell [Aegis of Void] to just get near the elders. Fortunately, he managed to do what he needed to do in the end.

After he got the message delivered, the three bloodline elders immediately left the enemy they were fighting and charged toward the possessed Mahinder. Once the three joined the fray, the stalemate was broken as the other four grand magus were finally able to get the advantage they needed, at the same time, the battle escalated once again.

Kaboommm! Kabooommm! Kaboommm!

Ear-deafening blasts once again rocked the academy as countless spells clashed against each other, painting a scene as if the apocalypse had come to this place. If it weren't for the arena barrier and the fact that some of the magus and grand magus were fighting in the air instead of the ground, the Grand Hall would have been blown to smithereens already.

However, that didn't mean their battle had no effect.

In fact, the cataclysmic aftermath of their battle managed to create huge cracks in the barrier surrounding the arena, allowing several elves to pass through as they ferociously started attacking the crowd of civilians.

Emery, along with Olivier and Eeshoo, stood their ground as they fought against the incoming dark elf warriors, whose numbers seemed to only grow rapidly by the seconds. At the same time, they could only helplessly watch as more and more acolytes were being teleported away.

As he continued to fight the elves, Emery realized each of the non-magus dark elves was much stronger than any saint-level warriors he had ever met, which led him to believe these elves were veteran warriors.

However, it was clear the other side was even more shocked than they were. Even though they had seen the monsters on the battlefield at the frontline, these elves couldn't fathom the existence of three acolytes who were able to deal with so many of them.

They were fighting against three of the strongest acolytes in the academy, maybe even the whole universe.

Energy's with his [Shadow Edge], Olivier with his [Sonic Thrust], and Eeshoo using his [Heaven Drill Blades]

All three were powerful skills, and each was critical to stop and kill the incoming elves.

Howwwwwlll!

With his Twilight Transformation, Emery was able to fight three elves at the same time. Thanks to the overwhelming support provided by Eeshoo through his spirit weapons, the three were swiftly taken care of. Olivier, on the other hand, was able to hold down one of the magus-level elves by himself.

But even with their efforts, more and more elves chased after the fleeing crowd. Seeing that, Emery cast his spell and summoned an army of Jade Warriors, which he ordered to help contain the elves while keeping the crowds from danger as they fled.

"They just keep coming!" The Nephilim prince lost his calm as he sent several of his Soaring Shuttle to ambush a dark elf warrior Emery was fighting. Alas, even when the elf fell down, another quickly replaced his position. The elves continued to come as if they were endless.

"There are too many of them, they've surrounded us!"
