Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1564

Chapter 1564 - Discoveries And Plans (Part 2)

Solus blushed at the thought of how many times she had let amazement and magical theory-crafting distract her from a fight. It had happened even back when she had faced the King of Kolga alone.

"It's an interesting plan. The staff would provide Solus with enough world energy to let her keep her human body and to make up for her faulty core thanks to her tower half converting the world energy into her own mana." Salaark said.

"Yet unless Mogar got turned upside down while I wasn't paying attention, world energy is comprised of six elements and you only have three Balor eyes."

"I know." Lith nodded. "That's why my project involves cutting three white mana crystals the size of an apple and enchanting them so as to amplify one of the elements that I lack to make up for the missing Balor eyes."

Lith had gotten a blue, a red, and a black eye from Trouble's corpse. He projected the hologram of three magical gemstones respectively orange, yellow, and silver…

"Brilliant! The eyes of a Balor naturally draw the world energy, creating an imbalance that the altered white crystals can exploit to further enhance their elemental output!" Salaark gave Lith an applause and ruffled his hair.

"Yet this raises a question. You've been here for half a month and I know about the Eye of Kolga you keep hidden in the basement. Why didn't you craft this Sage Staff already?"

"Well, because before we had this conversation, it was just a theory. I had no idea if my plan would work and I couldn't afford to waste the only Yggdrasill staff and the three Balor's eyes I have." Lith replied.

"Why didn't you ask me earlier, then? Like back when I taught you Menadion's Forgemastery technique?" She asked.

"It's not like I'm in a rush." Lith sighed. "I'm barely past the deep violet and I have no experience using the technique you showed me nor those that I obtained from the Council during Urgamakka's test.

"First, I need to use my Abyssal Gaze to at least reach the halfway violet core. Second, I must get used to that power. Only then can I attempt to craft the Sage Staff. And that is if Solus doesn't prefer waiting until I reach the bright violet so that I can give her a top-grade weapon."

"Aren't you forgetting about something? Or better, someone?" Salaark pointed at herself. "Failure or success doesn't matter when you have a lovely, genius, gorgeous Grandma who can bring everything back to its unaltered state. Creation Magic, remember?"

"Really?" Lith and Solus said in amazement.

He remembered the Guardian's offer about recycling his materials, but he had assumed it was limited to their initial deal. Back at his arrival, Salaark had only granted him the privilege of restoring metals for him to practice and to get used to working on rare elements like the Davross.

"Of course. I already do the same for Tyris and your Grandpa. Not even a Guardian would have so much Davross to craft a Royal Fortress armor every time there was a magical breakthrough." Salaark shrugged.

"Just craft to your heart content. The moment your abilities improve, all you need to do is to come here and I'll dismantle any of your creations back into their original materials."

"Thank you!" Both Lith and Solus hugged the Guardian, wishing to run straight to their Forge before remembering about Tista. "But that will have to wait. Until Tista is back on her feet, I can't afford to divert too much power from her bedside."

"A wise choice. Is there anything else you need my help for?" Salaark asked.

"Actually yes." Lith nodded.

"My bloodline ability to conjure Demons is powerful, but it requires too much energy on my side. Since the Demons' power depends on my own, their usefulness in battle is limited to when I can use Invigoration or I'm near to a mana geyser." _{freёwebnovel.com}
