Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1966

Chapter 1966 - Light in the Dark (Part 2)

The Tiamat snarled and headbutted the Jotun, happy to have horns that gave him the reach advantage.

Rkar'r reeled back in pain as his skull cracked and the curved horns ripped away big chunks of his flesh, flooding his mouth with blood and blinding his eyes. Lith exploited that moment to light his emerald eye and take control of the Cursed Lightning still stored inside the Jotun's body.

Now that he was the only one with fusion magic, the smaller and weaker creature lacked the strength to keep him pinned to the ground. Lith threw Rkar'r against the other members of the Council and had him forcefully release the Cursed Lightning he had left.

Those hit by the bloodline ability found themselves without fusion magic, with the spells they had kept at the ready or that they had been weaving gone. The Tiamat exploited the chaos that ensued to conjure the Call of the Void again.

The blackness formed a dome where only he and Solus could see and dozens of Demons of the Darkness answered his call.

Lith's allies knew the effects of the Call of the Void and used the temporary respite to escape from their respective encirclement. They could all use a short break to heal and drink tonics.

'I'm so sorry, Bytra.' Solus cried over the mangled body of the Raiju that refused to die even though half of it was reduced to a bloody pulp.

'Don't be.' Bytra replied. 'I've taken your life away and now I'm giving you mine. It's a fair exchange.'

'No, it's not!' Solus cried harder. 'You are not that Bytra. If you had another face, I wouldn't hate you one bit. You have been reduced like this only because I'm too weak.

'Too weak in the body to fight by the side of our allies and too weak in the mind to accept a helping hand when you offered it to me.'

Her stomach churned and she puked in her mouth a little, but Solus withstood it and sent the bile back down her throat. She placed her hands on the Raiju's body, ignoring her whole being screaming in revulsion.

Then, Solus activated her breathing technique, Sky Blessing, while she poured with water magic dozens of tonics inside Bytra's mouth. The sudden flow of world energy revitalized the Abomination side of the Raiju that used it along with the nutrients to repair the damage at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The flesh and blood that had been scattered by the explosions came to life and reattached themselves into the right position until Bytra was whole again. She couldn't see anything, just like her enemies, but she wasn't scared anymore.

Both the hunger and the pain were gone.

Then, sight suddenly returned.

Solus had leaned her head against the Raiju's using a deeper mind link to share her vision with her.

'I'm not powerful enough to win this fight, but together we can make it. Please, lend me your strength.' Solus asked.

'I'll do more than that.' Bytra knelt down, letting Solus mount on her back.

Once she managed to hold with just her legs, keeping her hands free to cast spells, Solus discovered to be holding both the Fury and the Absolution.

'It works just like your mother's hammer. Anyone of my choosing can use the Absolution. As I said earlier, it belongs to you so feel free to use it to your heart's content.' The Raiju said.

What were supposed to be one-time lightning bolts kept coming down one after another. _{freёweɓnovel.com}
