Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1561

Chapter 1561 - Saving The Wrong Side (Part 1)

"Why not?" The female goblin looked at Protector's group with spite and envy. "If not for the Harmonizer, I would have already grown old and died. Now, instead, I'm smarter and more powerful than I would have ever been as a fallen goblin.

"Who cares about a few runts? As long as I'm alive I can always have more!" The goblin used her words to mess with their heads and cast earth magic to take them down with a surprise attack.

The walls, the ground, and the ceiling around the group of invaders bloated like a bubble before exploding into countless razor-sharp shards, attacking them from every side.

'How conceited! It's easy for those who that belong to perfect races to talk like that.' She thought. 'I can't let them ruin my life. If I kill the intruders, maybe the Lord will reward me with a superior Harmonizer, like he did with Rhona.'

Unfortunately for her, none of them trusted a goblin farther than they can throw her and had been on guard all along. They had already seen reverted goblins use true magic and there was no reason to think that the one in front of them was any different…

Protector slipped his hand under her neck and squeezed it hard enough to make it almost impossible to breathe while a simple air barrier sent all the rock shards to crash against an empty wall.

"What does this Lord look like?" Protector asked while fiddling with the collar's clasp, threatening to open it.

"He always changes his appearance. The last time he looked like an old man with golden eyes. All I know is that his name is Ajatar and he is the Lord of this region." The goblin wheezed for air with each word she spoke.

"That's bullsh*t. Master Ajatar never had the time to do something like this." Morok spat on the ground in disgust at those accusations. "On top of that, he would have never sent us here if this was really his doing."

"Agreed." Ryman nodded. "Clearly this guy must have used Ajatar's name so to shift the blame in the case their experiments got exposed. I wouldn't be surprised if they even left something to incriminate your master with the Council."

"One last question. Does the Lord have their private quarters here and is there some place where he forbade you to go?"

The goblin hesitated and Protector released his grip while also opening the clasp.

Without the collar, the goblin's body reverted to its fallen state, with translucent skin, a bloated belly, and oversized eyes yet she didn't die.

The transformation seemed to be painful, but the creature didn't care. She just took the metal ring and put it back around her neck, shivering in pleasure as she regained her unfallen appearance.

"It's just as I thought. We cannot trust a word she said." Protector said while looking at the bloodlust and madness that shone in the goblin's eyes no matter what form she took. "The Harmonizers fix a monster's body, not their mind.

"These creatures are too dangerous to be allowed to live and their treachery cannot be underestimated." Ice shards pierced the goblin's head, double tapping her just to stay on the safe side.

The corpse quickly reverted to that of a fallen goblin. Without a mana flow, the magic of the collar had stopped working.

"You can leave the room if you want. I'll put the specimens out of their misery." Protector said to Quylla while pointing at the creatures chained to the walls.

"Can't we just remove the collars and try to heal them?" She asked.

Killing a monster in the heat of the battle to save her life was one thing, killing defenseless creatures in cold blood was another.

"And then what? Even if they somehow regained their sanity, they would still be dangerous creatures that are a threat to every living being. Waiting for monsters to kill someone before getting rid of them is just stupid." Morok said.

She choked on her words as the artifacts started to crumble soon after their wearer was dead, before Quylla or one of the others could store them inside a dimensional item. _{frёewebnoѵēl.com}
