Earth's Greatest Magus-Novel



As the masked enforcer's words reached their ears, Gerri's eyes scanned Annara's figure from head to toe in disbelief.

"Annara? Is that really you!?" Gerri questioned full of surprise.

Annara was irritated. It appeared that she truly revealed too much of her powers. Coupled with the fact that she was found here at this place, it might not be that difficult to guess her identity for someone who knew her well enough.

At this thought, she looked at the masked enforcer with curiosity. Who was he, for him to recognize her so quickly?

Unable to escape and having her identity revealed, she ultimately took off her disguise and looked at Gerri, showing him a full display of her true face.

"It really is you!"

Donning a familiar smile on her face, Annara once again tried to talk her way out of the situation.

"You're the captain, aren't you, Gerri? What about letting me go for old time's sake?"

While she was asking for a way out, her tone was more like suggesting a solution than pleading.

And her smile worked quite like a charm. A nostalgic smile that displayed the happiness of reuniting with an old acquaintance formed on Gerri's face. Still, it didn't seem as if he was going to relent anytime soon.

"Unfortunately, I cannot do so. I am an enforcer now, I have a law to uphold!"

"Seriously, Gerri. You know, if it wasn't for my help, all of you wouldn't have been able to escape that elven planet."

This time, Gerri had a slightly confused expression and his smile faded as he said, "Is that what happened? What I remembered was that you used us to escape from your own trouble, and once we were no longer useful, you abandoned us."

"That's not what happened!" Annara quickly retorted.

However, she was given no time to explain. At this moment, the masked enforcer behind her pulled out a dagger and aimed it at her neck.

"Many have suffered because of you. I… you will pay for you crime!!"

The masked enforcer immediately used a buff skill, one that increased his battle power extensively, before he swiftly dashed at her with a dagger in each hand.

Annara did not consider a mere new moon magus as a threat, so she simply parried the dagger blades and observed the man.

"Who are you?! You sure talk big for such a weakling!"

She was about to attempt to tear off his mask when the man unexpectedly screamed with rage and received another boost in power. This time, he was able to push her back after putting more strength into the daggers.

Annara was surprised for a moment, and with it came a faint smile on her face.

"Now that's more like it…"

But before she could finish her words, an identical masked man, a clone figure swiftly swung his daggers from behind her.

Annara's pupils constricted as she hurriedly threw a back kick to deflect the man's attack. The moment she swiftly moved away from her initial position, yet another identical masked man stabbed his dagger at where her leg previously swung.

It was here that she realized there were not just three, but four identical masked men, all gripping daggers and glaring at her with rage.

Annara smiled. No wonder he figured out her identity so easily.

She took a deep breath and cast the powerful Tier 5 [Hellfire Breath] at her surroundings, pushing all the enforcers encircling her. At the same time, she took out her main weapon, a dark whip.

With a sharp swing, Annara forced the masked enforcers back even further and simultaneously cracked his mask, revealing the familiar face of the person she and Emery were looking for.

"Chumo, it really is you!" Annara shouted with a bright smile.

However, she soon realized why the young man wore a mask. The right side of his face was wrinkled like a withering old man with bloodshot red eyes.

This was a face Annara was deeply familiar with, one she would find at any Nightwalker, the creature made by her previous master experiment.

Apart from that, the sight of the previously calm and quiet young man with rage, which puzzled her.

"Why are you so angry at me? You should be thanking me for what I did to…" she subconsciously spoke and abruptly stopped. She didn't know if she should talk about Emery here.

On the other side, Chumo had no intention of talking as he aggressively attacked her once again.

Despite only being a new moon magus, Chumo had his unique ability and monstrous strength. His clones weren't just shadows, they were as real and almost as strong as the real person. Furthermore, they could even utilize the [Eye of Raven], which seemingly allowed them to predict Annara's moves.

When Annara found an opening to counter, Gerri jumped in with his flaming fist at her. What was previously a one-on-one battle quickly turned into a two-on-one, with the other magus enforcers guarding the perimeter to make sure that Annara could not escape.

The two's strengths didn't exactly overwhelm her, but it was certainly capable of suppressing her. Whenever Chumo showed an opening where she could strike back, fire spells would shoot at her and force her to change her movement trajectory.

This synergy of theirs would even force her to reveal an opening at times, which made it annoyingly difficult for her.

"Arghh! Seriously, why are you two being like this!?"

The battle lasted more than an hour. More than once, Annara secretly hoped that Emery would come and rescue her. With just a show of his face, he would definitely be able to pull her out of this predicament. 

But even as her energy was getting exhausted, not a trace of him showed up. In the split second she lost focus, Chumo swiftly restrained her with his silver needle, piercing her important meridian points. forcing her down to her knees.

Gerri was out of breath as he chained the Bat half-blood. This chapter is updated by novelenglish.net . Firᴇ

"Annara Vermont you are under arrest for your crime, i will take you to golden city to wait for your trial"

After he ordered his men to check for the second intruder, Gerri turned his attention back to the woman on the ground.

"Let's not waste both of our time; who did you come here with?"

In response, Annara only looked at him with a secretive smile.

Now that she was captured, there was no point in revealing Emery's identity. She could only hope for Emery to save her as soon as possible.

'He owes me so much… he better come save me!'
