Earth's Greatest Magus-Novel



It took another half day before the repair process was complete and the teleportation portal could be used once again. By then, it had already been five days since Annara was supposedly captured by the group of enforcers.

The situation where he was stuck in the pirate base, and then the issue regarding the Raven faction that unexpectedly appeared; Emery was so overwhelmed with problem after problem that his mind just completely overlooked her situation.

A frown appeared on his face. "I really hope nothing bad happens to her…"

Knowing the gist of the situation, Thrax said "You said you have a problem with the Golden City's authorities?" the Thracian then gave him a strange smile as he said, "Then I guess you're really lucky… Our friend is member of the enforcers."

"...Our friend?" Emery asked, clearly confused as to what he meant.

"What? You didn't know?" Thrax asked back, surprise evident in his voice. "It's Chumo.. He decides to join Gerri, become part of his enforcer team."

"....What?!"

As it turned out, Chumo had sent Thrax a message two months ago, asking about how he could join the frontline. But then, a week later he apparently met Gerri the Violent Flame, leading him to join the ranks of enforcer instead.

This was of course an amazing piece of news for Emery. Not only that now he finally managed to find where Chumo is, he might also be able to help Annara out of the situation she was in.

Emery walked out of the Terra Palace and was planning to go to the portal gate together with Thrax, his steps filled with a much lighter mood after knowing that his friends were alright, when he was stopped in his tracks by a red-haired woman.

Even before she made a sound, Emery already knew what she wanted. With a slight chuckle, he crossed his hands saying, "I thought you still haven't recovered from your injuries..."

Hearing those words, she stared at him with a sharp gaze as she said, "I already feel fine. Would you like to test it?

Shaking his head, Emery chuckled slightly and said, "No, no.. It's fine. You can tag along, Morgana."

On the other hand, the Thracian looked bewildered at such a sight. As his gaze landed on Morgana, he slowly raised his palm and counted on his fingers while saying, "Four… Five..? How many women do you have now?!"

Ignoring the bulky man, Emery introduced Morgana to Thrax. He definitely seemed very surprised to learn that she was from Earth as well.

"For real?! Damn!" He slowly inched closer to Emery and then whispered, "You even have a girl willing to chase you this far, man.. You truly are a Master!"

Once again, Emery ignored the Thracian's words as he used his [Shapeshift] ability, turning into Evan Valerious, and entered the portal gate. When they opened their eyes again, the three of them had arrived at Golden City.

Since Thrax had become a citizen of the Magus Alliance for the past four years, he seemed much more confident walking around the huge city as he led the group through the packed streets Apparently other than his barbarous way of fighting, the gladiator has become much more civilized.

Along the way, Emery encountered some interesting stalls of snacks, and to escape from any trouble from her,  he was forced to buy some.

Eventually, the three of them arrived in front of the Magus Alliance building, and to Emery's surprise, he noticed that the place looked much quieter compared to when he had come the last time. 

It seemed that the rumors that the Magus Alliance's presence in the Golden City had dwindled since the Magus Academy was closed had some truth to it.

"Hello, we're looking for Enforcer Gerri," Thrax said as they came into the reception.

However, the staff offered a different enforcer who was available because apparently Gerri's team was currently busy on the field. Unwilling to waste time, Emery told the staff that he was actually the man's family and asked for where they were.

As the task Gerri and his team had taken on was a simple robbery case in the Golden City, the three of them were given the information.

Without further ado, Emery and Thrax went to the location where the group should be in high spirits. Their eyes lit up when they saw Gerri in his gray enforcement uniform standing among the people in the street.

"That uniform doesn't suit your personality, Enforcer Gerri."

Hearing his name being called, the young man turned his head to see a large, familiar figure speaking. A slight smile appeared on his face as he said, "Ahh.. It's you Thrax. What are you doing here?"

"Wow.. Is that really how you greet an old friend? Are you not excited to see me after so long?!"

"Yeah.. yeah.. I am happy to see you, Thrax… but as you can see, I am just too busy…"

Thrax looked disappointed by the lukewarm response and then said, "I came bringing a surprise for you. So come here!"

With his power, the Thracian forcefully pulled the man out of his duty, dragging him to one of the quiet alleys. "Wow! This is not cool!"

Gerri looked like he was about to curse when he suddenly saw a figure whose face had changed to that of someone he knew. For a moment, he couldn't believe what his eyes were seeing.

"You… it's you…."Googlᴇ search NoᴠelFɪre.net

The young man was stunned, speechless for seconds to the point of his eyes turning watery.

"It's really you… isn't it?"

Without even waiting for a response, Gerri jumped and hugged the figure tightly as he screamed hysterically. "My friend…!! You are alive!!" 

It was such a heartwarming sight, except for Thrax who looked annoyed at the difference in treatment.

"Why can't he do that to me too…?"

But then the next second, a shadowy figure came charging into the alley. Seeing such a suspicious masked figure, Morgana quickly stepped in and stood in the path with her half-transformed claws.

CLANK!!!

"Morgana, don't worry. He's a friend," said Emery as he walked towards the man.

Even only by looking at the eyes beyond the mask, Emery know who he was, as he gaze at the figure, memory started to return to him and said.

"Chumo, it's me."

The masked man quickly dropped his knives when he saw Emery's face. There was clear disbelief on his face, but then looking at Thrax and Gerri, he finally smiled.
