Raze had stayed in the park for quite a while, listening to the conversation of the teenage mages until they had eventually left, and now the night sky was out.
No one had co to sit next to him, maybe because of the aura he was giving off. One could feel a disturbance in the air if they ca close.
As for what Raze had been doing the entire ti while he was there, he had his mind occupied in deep thought. He was thinking about what the teenagers had spoken about and was imagining himself going up against soone who knew Dark Magic.
'This is extrely difficult to imagine, I haven't t anyone that was able to use Dark Magic before, so whatever I am imagining isn't a realistic way for to counter. Because of the variables that are involved.'
His mind was occupied with the teenagers' argunts, who were questioning what would happen to Alterian if there was ever a high star Dark mage? If a lower star Dark Mage can defeat higher star tiers than them, then wouldn't a Dark Mage be the strongest mage there was in existence?
'If I really wanted to get to the bottom of this case then the best thing to do would be to do so research into Dark Magic… but how would I even do that, and is that even allowed?'
'It's a taboo to learn Dark Magic, but to study about it surely that's a different matter.'
Raze thought about it so more. If he wanted to find out about Dark Magic, there wouldn't be a lot he could do. There were the restricted books in the librarys held in the Central Mage academy, but that was sowhere he couldn't go.
The other option would be to talk to those that had learned Dark Magic as well. Figure out how they ca across it. However, those people were quite scary to Raze. They had gone off the deep end, desperate to learn it to cause damage to others.
Involving himself with them, he just imagined that there would be another article waiting to be written about him if he was found out.
"I guess I should just forget about it. It's a stupid thing to think about in the first place. There will never be an 8-star Dark Mage," Raze said as he stood up.
That was when he had truly noticed that the sky was now black. With what ti it was, he thought he should hurry ho.
'It will be a first that she is back before ,' Raze thought. 'I don't want to worry her.'
Making his way back, Raze had arrived at their apartnt room and he noticed sothing. At the front door, there were a few painted words.
It was the sa profanity that was written, aid at him since the incident in red paint. He had suspected that it was soone from the apartnt since this continued, soone wanting them to leave.
However, Sabrina had stood her ground, shouting back at them. They were all friendly with them one day, and then turned on them the next. The reason why Raze noticed it, was because he hadn't seen it in a long ti.
'Usually, every ti Sabrina cos back, she cleans it away with her magic. She thought I didn't notice, but I'm quite sensitive to mana,' Raze thought.
Opening the door he didn't think much of it. As he walked inside, that was until he could see that there were no shoes in the entrance. Taking his own off, he started to walk into the apartnt.
"Sabrina!" Raze shouted. "Sabrina, are you here!"
Raze looked in the kitchen, the living room, he even gave a small knock on the toilet door, before opening it, yet there was no one.
"Well, she might be out with her friends after work, I'll just send her a ssage to see if everything is okay." Raze did that and continued on his day,
Usually, by this ti he would treat himself to a drink, but for once, with his mind full of thoughts of Dark Magic, and Sabrina not being ho at the usual ti, he had decided to leave it.
'She hasn't read my ssage.' Raze checked his phone and decided to give a call instead.
It was unusual, Sabrina would often reply back, or even let him know in advance if she had sothing. When calling, the phone didn't even ring out. This was almost an impossibility.
The phones in Alterian ran on mana, as long as it was on a person they could always have it working. Sure there was a chance that she might have lost it, but there were many other things that were strange.
The day she lost her phone she had co ho later than usual? And not even inford him beforehand like she usually would do. It was already extrely late.
With this in mind, Raze had decided to write out a note. Just in case Sabrina ca back while he was out so she wouldn't worry like him, and he headed out the door in search of her.
In his mind, Sabrina would be seen between their apartnt and her work, it was a fifteen-minute walk. Going through the area, Raze went into every shop he could see on the way, he took a glance to see if there was anyone he could see.
"Is there sothing I could help you with, sir, a seat perhaps?"
"No, I'm just looking for soone," Raze answered. "You haven't seen a woman here have you, light brown hair, usually wearing a light-colored jacket thing, the one with the wrap that you can tighten the waist."
Raze was never good at fashion; he had no clue what the words were for the type of jackets, not like his wife.
"There are a lot of people that co here, but I can't rember anyone like that."
After getting his answer, he continued going into every shop, asking the sa question. At tis there would be those that matched their description, but they weren't the person he was looking for.
Suddenly in the situation he was in, his anxiety wasn't hitting him. He was talking to others which he hadn't done in years, and it was because there was sothing more important at stake for him.
In one of the restaurants he had entered Raze was even sure soone had recognized him and was whispering but he didn't care as he continued forward, but he had failed.
"Arghh, it hurts, it hurts!" a voice was heard.
It was from one of the local parks. A place where kids would ride magical devices.
Going over to the noise, Raze was ready to look anywhere right now, even the whole country.
He was considering even flying up in the air and searching even though there were rules about that. When he entered the park, he could see kids were gathered around one of the kids.
They had had an accident on one of the rails, and their leg was twisted. When Raze pushed through the crowd he heard a soft voice.
"Don't worry, this will heal up all good and well. There won't be any pain or scar."
When the woman was done, she stood up and turned around and now her face was directly looking back at Raze.
"Sabrina, here you are, you're here!" he said as he quickly hugged her tightly. He then pulled her away and was holding her,
"Is everything okay, are you alright?" Raze asked.
"I'm fine… but… I'm sorry." Sabrina said, touching her head. "Who are you?"
