Greatest Legacy of the Magus Universe-Chapter 364 Terror

?Seeing Adam walk toward them with an evil grin on his face, Atkin and Nara couldn't help but tremble in fear and involuntarily retreat a few steps.

Something about the youth's presence caused their hearts to be gripped by terror.

Furthermore, when they gazed at the white flower pattern in his jet-black eyes, the fear in their hearts magnified exponentially.

Before they or the Rank 1 Magi near the suite's entrance could even make a move, Adam raised his hand and performed a simple hand sign.

Then, the white lotus pattern in his eyes lit up with a glorious light.

The couple couldn't help but squint their eyes. This otherwordly light was too bright for them.

When the light receded and they opened their eyes again, they realized nothing had changed.

Nara couldn't help but force a nervous laugh, "Ha-Hahaha! You're nothing! Nothing!"

Atkin on the other hand had an extremely solemn expression on his face. He looked around in fear, wondering if he was inside yet another illusion.

Had his senses deceived him?

Or was this reality?

He couldn't tell.

Finally, he understood why Slade had escaped without a shred of hesitation. A Magus who majored in the School of Illusion was simply a force to be reckoned with.

Not to mention, Adam was a Rank 2 Magus!

Nara glanced at her husband and screamed in panic, "W-What are you waiting for?! Help me kill him!"

The next moment, she conjured a sword from her storage artifact and dashed toward the youth in a frenzy, her eyes flashing with a deranged light.

Seeing this, Atkin shouted nervously, "Nara, wait!"

However, it was already too late.

Adam's lips curled up into a smirk and he muttered a single word.

"Come."

The following moment, Adam's shadow seemed to have come alive. It squirmed on the ground, reaching upward.

Before anyone knew what was happening, his shadow had already covered the entire suite.

"Ahhhh!" Nara screamed in fear as she watched Adam's shadow drown the room. "What is this?! Shadow Magic?!"

Atkin was the same. He looked around in horror. Adam's shadow had covered the floor. He was now afraid even to take a single step.

Adam didn't give the couple a moment of respite. He waved his hand in an upward motion.

Following that, countless dark tendrils emerged from his shadow!

These tendrils had fear-inducing eyes with crimson pupils growing on their grotesque surfaces. These frightening eyes blinked a couple of times and then all gazed at the couple.

Seeing all the crimson eyes stare at them malevolently, Atkni and Nara's bodies shuddered. Everywhere they looked, they found these eyes staring right back at them.

Their bodies froze in absolute horror and they couldn't even think straight, forget casting a spell. They had never felt such fear in all their lives.

The dark tendrils slowly slithered their way toward the couple, and in but a few moments, they had completely surrounded them.

Atkin and Nara had their backs against each other as they helplessly glanced at the waves of tendrils slowly approaching them from all sides.

"W-What do we do?!" Nara had completely broken down at this point. Tears streamed down her eyes and she shrieked, "I don't wanna die! No, no, no, I don't wanna die!"

Atkin, on the other hand, was so horror-stricken that he couldn't even speak. Suddenly, his eyes filled with hope and he started screaming, "Merlin, wait, wait! I'll give you everything! Money, women, you name it! N-Name your price!"

A cold voice that seemed to originate from all around them suddenly spoke, "Too late for that."

The next moment, the wave of dark tendrils completely submerged the couple. Some coiled around their legs, others coiled around their arms and torso, while a few even slid inside Atkin and Nara's mouths, choking them.

Their bodies writhed in pain and agony as they felt the cold touch of death slowly gripping their necks.

Crimson eyes and black tendrils.

That was the last thing they witnessed before their eyes rolled back and they lost consciousness.

…

The Rank 1 Magi who were blocking the entrance of the private suite were completely thunderstruck by what they had just witnessed.

After Roy died and Slade teleported away from this place with the help of a magic scroll, they saw Adam slowly walk toward the owners of this establishment.

Then, they saw Adam raise his hand and perform a simple hand gesture.

Following that, the scene that took place caused the Rank 1 Magi to not believe their eyes. They saw Atkin and Nara suddenly look around them in terror.

Even though there was absolutely nothing or no one around them, they acted as if they had been surrounded by enemies on all sides.

Meanwhile, Adam just silently stood before them.

Within a few moments, Atkin and Nara were standing with their backs against each other. And then, their bodies started to convulse and they fell to the ground.

It was almost as if someone was pressing them to the ground and choking them.

Yet there was no one.

The couple's bodies intensely jerked for about a minute before they lost consciousness and motionlessly lay on the ground.

From the beginning to the end, all Adam did was simply perform a hand motion. But this simple gesture had brought to life the couple's darkest nightmares.

This was the terror of the School of Illusion.

Rank 2 Spell: Chimerical!

With this spell, Adam had crafted an illusion that took root directly inside the couple's minds. This spell included the sensation of sight, sound, and even touch.

While the target was under this spell, they perceived the illusion to be extremely real. They begin to justify any illogical outcomes that came from interacting with the illusion.

The target became so convinced that the illusion was real that their brain tricked them into taking damage from the illusion.

In Atkin and Nara's case, they saw the tendrils pinning them to the ground and choking them. As a result, their brains tricked them into feeling suffocated and gasping for air.

Subsequently, they lost consciousness.

Blood trickled down Adam's eyes, yet he remained steadfast. He hadn't killed the couple yet. He wouldn't give them such an easy death.

The youth turned around and glanced at the dozens of Rank 1 Magi who were frozen in absolute horror. His eyes then landed on Cade, the keeper of this establishment.

He raised his hand and pointed his finger at him.

"Your turn."
