Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1962

Chapter 1962 - White Griffon (Part 2)

The two weapons emitted sparks of light with their every move that didn't fade away even after the Griffon had moved to another position.

'What in the Great Mother's name is happening?' Senara suddenly was afraid that even the elite units of the Council might not be enough to win her that battle. 'Three out of the four Abominations have transformed into Divine Beasts and the nameless man turned out to be a Griffon.

'Is Elphyn Menadion the only human in the group?'

The answer to her question came when Zoreth in her Shadow Dragon form and Bytra in her human form who stood above the Dragon's head started to move in unison. The Council representative noticed that there was something familiar in the spell they were casting but the realization arrived when it was too late.

Their arms had traced a six-pointed star that she had mistaken for Silverwing's Hexagram at first and then for Silverwing's Annihilation.

'It cannot be either! The Hexagram takes too long to cast and the Annihilation requires seven violet cored Awakened and Spirit Magic!' Senara thought, and she was right, but only in part.

White-cored Awakened had more than enough power to use Silverwing's legacy on their own and regular Eldritches were just as powerful. They couldn't use Annihilation simply because the light element the spell required was sealed by their ever-hungry black core and lacked Spirit Magic.

Bytra and Zoreth, however, were hybrids who could use light magic freely. They had yet to unlock the power of Spirit Magic, but after studying the anti-Guardian spells, Vastor had altered them in a form that his children could use.

The Shadow Dragon unleashed Chaos Annihilation in the form of a black pillar that cut through the battlefield. It left a dozen meters deep scar into the ground, almost pierced through the Bastions that the Awakened kept at the ready, and killed those who didn't.

The Chaos replaced the darkness and made up for the lack of Spirit Magic, bringing Vastor's variation of the Annihilation on par with the original. The seven-man units behind the Bastions replied with their own Annihilation, hoping to put the Dragon down just like they had done with the Tiamat.

Bytra's Corrupted Bastion stopped them all in their tracks, the cursed element of earth eroding the powers of the enemy's spells while also making the barrier harder than a diamond.

'Dammit!' Senara thought. 'No regular human can use Corruption and live to tell the tale. It means that the weak link of the chain is Elphyn Menadion, but I can't afford to kill her. Old magic or not, every piece of the First Ruler of the Flame's legacy is a priceless treasure.'

At the same time, Solus and Theseus received the Life Maelstrom. The Bastet's metabolism and bloodline abilities were now boosted to the point that his body instantly recovered from the injuries.

On top of that, he could now share his Mana Body with his allies, imbuing them with the passive effect of his bloodline ability, Mana Aura. Every member of the group was now infused with a massive amount of world energy and a spark of Theseus' life force.

It boosted their fusion magic and granted them resistance to elemental magic until the world energy he had bestowed upon them wouldn't run out. It had been the combination of Life Maelstrom and Mana Body that had allowed the two Divine Beast to survive until that moment despite Theseus' pitiful condition.
