For a while now, Gunther had been on the search for the Dark Magus. It was all due to the reward offered by the Crimson Crane, a powerful clan of wanderers that belonged to no faction. The reward was a high-level power stone, one that Gunther hoped could push him into the middle stages. This was why he was doing everything he could to find the Dark Magus.
During his spare time, he would ask those who came and went by the academy, talk to merchants, and read the newspapers spread around the local towns. Yet, he had heard nothing about this person.
This begged the question: why was the Crimson Crane, such a well-respected Clan, looking for a person that no one knew about? It was a request seemingly out of nowhere. The person was clearly unknown but had to be special at the same time.
