Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1331

Chapter 1331 - Domination (Part 3)

"I see. That’s a great technique that only a Tyrant can use, but it’s incomplete and dangerous. Without Domination, every time you use Tyrannical Eye, only a part of the energy signature infused within an absorbed spell gets cleansed while the rest builds up in your body, causing mana poisoning." Faluel said.

"It’s like dirtying your clothes and then wash them under a waterfall without using soap. No matter how strong the flow is, stains will always remain. Lith?"

"I wasn’t able to develop a technique of my own so I simply combined my elemental mastery with your meditation techniques to achieve the best next thing to Domination. Yet I can only use it on my own spells or on a weak enemy’s spells." He said.

"That’s because just like Glemos, I taught you an ineffective technique. It was only meant to help you control your abilities and perceive the elements so that opening the rest of your eyes would come naturally to you.

"Unlike Glemos, however, my technique didn’t endanger your life nor did it make you dependent on me for your long-term survival." The Hydra said.

’The next time I meet Glemos at the Council, I’m going to kick his a.s.s.’ She actually thought.

"First, Lith and I developed our technique together so I’m in the same situation as him. Second, why did both of you teach an ineffectual method to control the elements?" Solus asked.

"Because Domination is the secret behind the survival of all of our species. If it leaks out, it wouldn’t compromise just our lives but those of every single Hydra and Tyrant out there.

"It makes up for my inability to fly and my lack of Origin Flames while for Tyrants it makes them unstoppable war machines even though their body is barely bigger than that of a human." Faluel said.

"Once Domination is used, we can’t afford to leave a living witness unless we can disguise it as elemental mastery. That’s why the elders of all species capable of using Domination teach their youths faulty techniques.

"Our purpose is to keep our whelps from using Domination by instinct during a stressful situation and throw its secrets into the gutter. Yet now I’m forced to teach you the real deal because those techniques only work at the early stages of development of our species.

"Otherwise, you will not be able to control your abilities when you reach the sixth eye. If that happens during a fight, the consequences might be disastrous." Faluel invited them to follow her lead and to sit down on the stone floor.

"Domination is akin to controlling your mana flow. It requires finesse, not strength. So far, all of you have just overpowered foreign spells with your mana whereas true Domination requires barely more mana than elemental mastery but much greater focus."

"The first exercise-"

"Wait, aren’t you going to cleanse me from all that elemental crap first? I wouldn’t mind you getting rid of the tracking spell either." Morok cut her short.

"That will be your homework. It will serve as practice and as an incentive to not interrupt me anymore. I’m not Ajatar, one more word and I’ll beat you so hard that you’ll black out until our second lesson." Faluel snarled.

Controlling the golems to train the others required six of her heads, leaving Faluel only one to both teach a demanding discipline like Domination without hurting them and use Lifestream from time to time to recover her strength.

The effort put a huge strain on her mind and made her cranky.

"As for the tracking spell, the only way to get rid of it safely is triggering it. Do you want your father to come here?"

"No." Morok sighed.
