Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1192

Chapter 1192 A Worried Parent Part 2

Lochra’s tier five Spirit Magic spell, Silver Spire, created a thick, tall barrier that not only dispersed the impact by spinning at high speed, but it also absorbed the shockwave, sending it right back to its caster.

The spear slowly pierced through the shields like a drill through a wall while the sudden blow from her own spell threw Solus off balance. She quickly recovered, unleashing a tier five spell against the spear.

’That barrier offers her great protection, but as long as she keeps it up, she can’t attack either.’ Solus thought as Stormnado created a whirlwind filled with darkness magic that engulfed the construct.

The spell both altered the trajectory of the spear and corroded it, reducing its power.

"Thanks for your help, child." Silverwing twirled his hand, making the spear spin so fast that it altered Stormnado’s momentum, sending it through the shields and against Lith.

"You should have known that your own magic can’t harm neither you nor your spells, but the same isn’t true for hi-" She choked on her words when the spell passed through Lith as well, without doing him any harm.

"You should have listened to me earlier. I told you that we are as one." Solus said. "If you really care for me, then stop this madness. You could become our mentor, teach us what we need and work with us to find a cure to my condition."

"And give away my knowledge to someone I don’t know, don’t trust, and who could potentially hold you hostage forever? No thanks." Silverwing acted cool, but her mind was in disarray.

’This makes no sense. When Epphy told me about their fusion, I thought she referred to the tower’s battle form. Artifacts can hurt their owners. I’ve killed lots of mages on their own blade, why is the tower so different now?’ She thought.

Solus noticed her confusion and exploited it to switch to close quarter combat. Each one of her fists hit the barrier with the strength of a collapsing building, filling the Silver Spire with cracks.

’Even if I had access to a real mana geyser, my combat experience is insignificant compared to that of the First Magus.’ Solus thought. ’My only option is to beat her with raw strength, playing as dirty as I can.’

"You’ll never crack my barrier before- Oh, crap." For a moment, Silverwing had forgotten they were still inside the tower.

Solus could do more than just draw power from it. The room was shrinking so that the wall pressed against the Spirit Magic barrier from all sides but the front, where Solus kept hammering at it with the speed of a gatling gun and the strength of a titan.

Lochra had to use her full focus to keep the barrier intact while not letting the spear fade away.

’If I get caught by that flurry of fists, I can kiss my internal organs goodbye. I don’t want to hurt Epphy nor reveal her existence to the rest of Mogar, otherwise she won’t have a moment of peace. Luckily, I only need to hold out until my spear hits the target.’ She thought.

Alas, she was right. Despite Solus’s best effort, the hard-light construct had slowed down, but never stopped its movements. She could sense through her mystical senses the construct getting closer and closer to Lith.

Her eyes burned with golden mana as she turned her distress into a fury that gave more strength and speed to her onslaught. The whole tower started to hum with power as Solus’s feelings flooded every part of her being.
