Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1843

Chapter 1843: Brothers at War (Part 1)

Lith's face showed only spite at Orpal, Solus' focus as she deciphered the Sealed Space spell, and Elina's utter despair.

"I‘ve visited the Golden Griffon enough times to draw an accurate map of it.“ The Dead King said. "Vl?th your DoLorean, we can invade it and move so quickly that Thrud won't be able to rearrange the rooms before we Spirit Warp forward.

"While our soldiers slaughter hers, we'll reach the core of the Golden Griffon. I'll keep Thrud busy and buy you enough time to destroy it.

Without that lost city, she's nothing.

"After you get rid of the power core of the academy, we only have to run away and the battle will be won. The Council and the Royals will do the rest, exhausting their forces to take Thrud down along with her now mortal but still powerful army.

"Once they are done, while they are at their weakest, we'll strike.

Without the Royals and the Council, the Griffon Kingdom will be ours to take. I'll be its Eternal King while you'll become my trusted second in command."

Orpal's voice rose in intensity as he spoke, the images that he was describing almost visible to his eyes. He could already see himself sitting on the throne, ?nally achieving the respect he deserved and with his hated brother as his ?rst slave.

"Are you insane?" Lith said, making the bubble pop. "You need my Demons, my crafts, my weapons, ad my expertise. l wouldn't even accept sharing the Kingdom with you, let alone serving you. Give me one good reason I should do it."

"Because I'm not going to leave you a choice." Orpal said with a huge grin on his face.

He had been waiting for that question and seeing his plan running on track according to his schedule ?lled him with joy. I-Ie had learned everything he could from Lith's raid on his mansion.

Inside the Sealed Space spell communications were cut off. There was not enough world energy for a full breath of Origin or Void Flames,

no way to bring his loved ones to safety, or even the possibility to cast whatever had darkened Derios.

Orpal had taken a page from Lith's book, preparing several contingency measures for that meeting. Even the arrays that blinded mystical senses and his Thralls were just two of them.

I-Ie was certain to have cornered Lith. To have already put a leash on his neck, a muzzle on his face, and a cage around him. They were all invisible and Orpal couldn't wait for the moment when Lith would notice them.

"You have stolen my stuff. That wasn't very brotherly of you, but I'm a forgiving man and I'll allow you to keep it. Consider it your advance payment for your allegiance and the ?rst batch of materials for your crafts.

"For fairness, however, I need to take something of yours. Just to make sure that you don't get funny ideas. Mom and your girlfriends are coming with me." Orpal said, making Lith's eyes go wide.

As he clenched his teeth, dark clouds gathered above the Heavenly Wolf restaurant and the sound of distant thunder echoed.

"Don't worry, I'll keep them safe and sound for you and give them back once Thrud is dead. Worst case scenario, I hope you don't mind your older brother getting a taste of—" A low rumble in the ground had grown in intensity until Orpal sensed it below his feet.

"What do you think you are doing? Stop immediately or I'll kill them here and now!"

"I'm not doing anything." Lith said while his eyes bumed with mana and his aura ?lled the sealed space, making the borders of the spell visible to the naked eye. “lf I had such power, I would have used it to smite you, not wasted it in theatrics!"
