Chapter 1078: A New Base Of Operations
Finishing up the teleporter between the town of Flendon and the Dark Faction academy was quicker than Raze had thought. It was thanks to the help he had with Charlotte. Even though she was only a 3-star mage, she seemed to be quite skilled at magic theory.
It made things easier for Raze as he would only have to explain a few things here and there, and she could pretty much go ahead and get the job done herself from there.
Right after the teleporter had finished, there just needed to be a test, and the person they had chosen was none other than Fixteen to stand in the circle. He had two crystals in his hand, and hadn't quite stepped in.
"Is it really something that I have to test, can't one of you two step in it?" Fixteen asked.
"We can't," Charlotte explained. "The way the spell works is when it detects a particular type of energy, it would activate the circle, but me and Raze had mana flowing through our bodies. It will work with us, but it will use our own Mana rather than the crystals, which is why we called you."
"And with this, is there a chance of failure?" Fixteen asked. "Like what's the worst that can happen to me?"
"Your heart explodes," Charlotte answered with her finger on her lips and a serious look on her face.
"WHAT!"
"I'm kidding. The worst that will happen is it just doesn't work," Charlotte continued.
Fixteen didn't know what to be more afraid of, the fact that Charlotte was joking, or the fact that Raze hadn't said one thing about how things would work.
"Can you guys do me one favor, if something does happen to me, can you make sure Froma is okay?" Fixteen asked.
A strange request, but now that Charlotte thought about it, Froma and Fixteen seemed to be closer together. She even saw Froma walk behind Fixteen several times, despite her being a part of the Crimson Crane and not the Neverfall Clan like Dame was in the past.
She had no clue why this would be, and as for Raze, he hadn't even bothered to pay attention to the whole matter. Taking a deep breath, Fixteen walked in. The circle lit up, and after a couple of minutes, they had witnessed him return.
"I'm all in one piece, my heart didn't explode!" Fixteen said, his hand over his chest.
"I told you it was a joke," Charlotte explained.
With that done, Raze was already heading toward the door.
"Wait Raze, where are you going, what are you doing now?" Fixteen asked. "Not that you can't do as you wish, but you know the situation all over is a bit tense right now for everyone. It feels like we could go to war any second."
"That's because we could go to war any second. It's good they feel that way," Raze answered.
"Right, but you know, whenever you go and disappear somewhere for a while, it always feels like something happens. And like you're not there when we really need you. I think everyone is fine helping you out because it helps us and Pagna, but it's better with you by our side."
"What I need to do is important," Raze answered. "I will be there, I will certainly be back before the funeral and head there with everyone."
Swiftly leaving the room, Raze's first destination was to travel to the special cave that was located near Reptum. There was a small message that Raze had asked of Fixteen when he went to the other side, and that was to ask him to destroy the cave located in the Dark Faction.

Since they were going against Alter, it meant they were going against other mages, and the valuable information left behind by the Dark Faction founder needed to be erased, that was what Raze was doing now as well as he destroyed the cave on the Demonic Faction side.
Shortly after, he was traveling back to the town of Flendon. Raze was quite enjoying his travels because he was getting used to using his Qi to the fullest. With a powerful kick of the ground and his added Wind magic, he could glide across the air with ease.
If he added lightning to his steps, he could quickly cut through the area side to side and even the ground beneath him changed. The power he had, it was quite close to him as a 9-star mage.
One thing was for sure, he was certainly more versatile compared to before. When reaching the town, Raze had traveled to the large lake. Not much had been built around the place, as it had become a path for people to walk around.
Rather than just expanding and building buildings on top of buildings. It became a spot where people could enjoy the scenery and walk around. This wasn't Raze's choice, but the mayor, Yarlston.
Now though, it was the perfect spot for Raze as he stood on the edge. "The most important thing while using the astral projection technique, is to not be disturbed during it, so this will be best for me."
Raze started to walk ahead, and began to walk in the water. As he did, the water started to move, and his body started to drop down, and a bubble was around his head.
'Thanks to all of the Power stones that have been gathered, I have unlocked Water magic, and Earth magic, but I still have yet to get anything with the Fire element or Light element. Although that would be better in Safa's hands at the moment.
'As for special elements, I don't think I'll get my hands on anything like that just from beasts, not simple ones in this dimension anyway.'
When Raze finally sunk down to the bottom of the lake, he stretched out his hands, and started to freeze over part of the walls by his side, creating a large cube for himself. It was gigantic in size, almost like an underwater ice palace.
Then placing both hands on the ground, he started to shift the ice even more, building large structures, squares on top of squares until. Lastly, he built large cylinder-like shapes on top of the square structure that continued all the way until it reached the top.
"That should be good for oxygen as well. Although as a warrior at this stage, I won't need it as much."
Raze walked into the self-made building and was quite proud of his own secret hideout he had created. Now he knew he was in a place that no one would disturb him.
'It's time to head to Alterian. I brought my Blazer with Dark magic from there. Which means I should have no trouble bringing high-grade crystals as well, and creating new items for the rest of the Crimson Crane.' Raze thought.
'I wonder if anything has changed since the last time I was there.'
Little did Raze know that he was in for quite a shock when he returned. Because, his loyal follower, Harvey, had been working overtime, to make things perfect for him.
