Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1674

"Shouldn't you leave some for the others?" Elina asked.

"Nah, they are still too hard. It's better to erase the evidence of this disaster and prepare a second batch later." Solus replied.

"Isn't it too much right after dinner?" Elina said.

"I promise that I won't touch them, Mom." Solus finished the cookies and stood up. "I'm going to my room if anyone looks for me."

She Warped away, leaving Elina alone and sighing.

"She could have at least walked. It's no wonder that Solus gains weight if she doesn't take a single step after eating a mountain of food."

Solus Warped the tower to Lutia long enough to check that no one had left messages for her before moving to the borders of the Gorgon Empire and calling Nyka.

'Ever since we came to the Desert, I've been too busy to call her. On top of that, regular amulets don't work from this distance so we could only talk through Council amulets when Lith and Kalla were both available.

'I wonder how she's doing.' Solus thought, unaware of Elina's worries.

"Who the heck are you and how did you get your hands on my friend's amulet?" Nyka's joy at the sight of Solus's rune blinking turned into rage when she didn't recognize the person projected in the hologram.

The Vampire had been risen by Kalla with Necromancy just seven years ago, yet her body and mind were those of an adult.

Nyka looked like a young woman in her mid-twenties, around 1.7 meters (5'7") tall with emerald green eyes emphasized by her rosy skin. A vampire was pale only when unable to properly feed and that wasn't her case.

Her raven-black hair looked almost blue and after her Awakening, Nyka had gained yellow and pitch-black streaks typical of the elemental affinities of her species.

She wasn't a stunning beauty, but undeath gave her smooth, delicate features and kept her body lithe. Yet now it also twisted her face with fury as she bared her fangs and he eyes burned like embers.

Nyka was so enraged that her slender fingers grew longer and her red-painted nails became sharp claws.

"I am Solus and this is my amulet, dummy!"

"Lies! She lives in the Kingdom and no regular amulet can reach my position. Also, she looks nothing like you." Nyka replied.

"Tower Warp, remember? I know a lot of mana geysers from the time when Lith worked as a Ranger." Solus suddenly understood how Lith must have felt back when she had failed to recognize him.

Right after she had regained her body, between the shock of the sudden change and the temporary disappearance of their mind link, it had taken him quite some effort to calm her down.

"Okay, you know about the tower and about the Warp, but how do you explain the rest?" Nyka still didn't believe her.

"What rest? I'm finally human again and I wanted to share the good news with you." Solus cursed at her own stupidity, turning into a wisp, then into her energy body, and then into a human again.

"This is amazing! I waited so long for this moment that I'm having a hard time believing it even though I'm seeing you with my own eyes." Nyka lost her feral features, jumping with joy like a child.

"You have no idea how scared I was back when it happened. I had lost all of my powers and I couldn't control-"

"What do you mean, back when it happened? How long have you had your body back?" Nyka cut her short.

"A bit less than a month ago." Solus lowered her gaze in embarrassment.
