Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1428

Chapter 1428 - Solus and the Family (Part 2)

Leegaain had actually failed to consider the Griffon-Dragon Lith hypothesis and it made him shudder.

A being capable of using both Origin Flames and Life Maelstrom would have been a potential threat to the balance.​​

"We must call Tyris and inform her immediately!" Salaark activated the mind link between them before Leegaain could stop her.

"Don’t! I- We-"

"Salaark, to what I owe the p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e of- Mogar almighty! I can never unsee that!" Tyris didn’t like the image of her best friends stark n.a.k.e.d and covered in sweat that popped in front of her eyes.

"Stop being such a prude. We’ve seen each other n.a.k.e.d plenty of times." Salaark laughed her a.s.s off.

"While bathing in thermal springs, not while exchanging fluids! What’s Leegaain doing there and n.a.k.e.d at that?" Tyris asked.

"Well, you see, when a man and a woman like each other-" Salaark made a circle with the index and thumb of her left hand while bringing the index of the right inside of it, but Tyris cut off the conversation before the Overlord could finish her sentence.

Village of Lutia, Lith’s house, after the end of the dinner.

Despite their boastful claims, the kids fell asleep before the grown-ups were done clearing up the table. Between the pleasant warmth of the fireplace and the softness of the fur of their magical beast friends, tiredness closed their eyes without them even noticing.

"Is it safe to leave the kids alone?" Rena bit her lower lip out of stress.

"Since when are they alone? One magical beast in each bedroom, three Phoenixes, one Abomination wolf-thingy, and three squads of the Queen’s corps stand guard outside 24/7." Lith said with a scoff.

"Even Balkor would rather kill himself than try to attack us here."

Everyone felt reassured by those words, remembering how much those godlike creatures seemed to care for the children.

The last dimensional door led them in front of the clearing in the Trawn woods where the mana geyser waited for its master.

"Guys, this is where I fought the Wither alongside Protector and the other Kings of the woods." He said to explain why the vegetation was so thin and only young trees grew there.

Even after years from the fight, there wasn’t enough food to sustain wildlife, making the area as empty and silent as a natural graveyard.

"This is terrifying, but how is it related to Kamila?" Rena asked.

Lith took off his stone ring, showing it for a second to his family before throwing it on the ground. The ruined Tower of Menadion rose up slowly, taking the appearance of the four-story building that Kamila had seen just a few days back.

Everyone stared at it in awe and amazement, almost too stunned to notice that someone among them didn’t share their feelings.

Almost.
