Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2031

Chapter 2031 Battle of lmmortals (Part 1)

Until a few hours ago, Belius had been a foreign place to Solus. It was where her life and Lith's had started to diverge, making her feel like an intruder every time she accompanied him to Kamila's apartment.

Yet now Solus had one good memory of Belius and was eager to make more. To become part of that side of Lith's life she had been excluded from for so long.

The Tiamat silently pointed at the first line of enemies and the battle began.

The armored Demons spread their wings and took flight while the rest of them seemingly disappeared into thin air. The flying Demons charged at high speed, using their aerial mobility to make their trajectory unpredictable.

They kept themselves just a few meters above the ground, to avoid drawing the attention of the Divine Beasts and not offer the enemy mages an easy target.

The soldiers of the Mad Queen raised their hands, unleashing a volley of fire, ice, and lightning. Much to their surprise, the Demons abandoned their formation and spread around the first battalion.

Most of the spells missed their targets but now each unit of soldiers could focus on a single enemy. The numerical advantage had just gone from huge to overwhelming.

Or so they thought until the Demons threw themselves at the enemies. This way, any high-tiered spell aimed at them would hurt one Demon and several of Thrud's soldiers at the same time.

The soldiers simply raised their shields, stopping the Demons from breaking their ranks while those right behind them used their long spears to push them back.

'Interesting but pointless strategy.' Iata the Sekhmet thought while keeping an eye on both the vanguard and the Tiamat, waiting for the opening that was bound to appear when he joined the fray. 'All of our soldiers are Awakened.

'Their cores are yellow at best, but they can still use both Life Vision and Invigoration. Even if the Demons are individually stronger, our soldiers cannot be taken by surprise and it takes them the space of a single breath to heal any injury they might suffer.'

Thrud had emptied the prisons of the regions she had invaded and conscripted the known criminals because she considered them expendable. There was no place for them in her future Kingdom so instead of executing them on the spot, their sentence would be carried on the battlefield.

The Unwavering Loyalty arrays made them slaves to her will and had allowed them to endure her harsh training that would have killed a non-Awakened human. They had become soldiers for just a few months, but their fighting spirit, teamwork, and willingness to sacrifice for the cause made them a force to be reckoned with.

Just as Iata predicted, the majority of the Demons were easily repelled and nailed to the ground by the enchanted weapons. Only a few managed to slip past the shields due to luck yet they were quickly surrounded and disposed of.

It was then that the members of Thrud's vanguard suddenly screamed and died by the dozens. Three pillars of elemental energy erupted from Trouble's eyes, piercing through the raised-up shields and tearing the formation apart.

At the same time, Raptor exploited the opening to launch its jagged tail forward. The backline soldiers hastily used earth magic to conjure stone walls, but the Golem maneuvered the tail to move it around the barriers.

Its adamant coated tip pierced through the armor of the first victim and kept moving forward as the different sections of the tails sprung forward, extending it further without losing momentum.
