Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2034

Chapter 2034 Golden Knight (Part 2)

Between the pain from War stinging at her from the inside and the Void Flames eating at her from the outside, Iata didn't notice Lith's flaming tail wrapping around her hind legs.

The hold threw the Sekhmet off balance while also giving Lith the leverage he needed to escape and regain his footing. He got up with a kip-up, using the same motion to strike with his head at her lower jaw and make War sink deeper in her flesh.

'What the fuck?' Iata felt as if suddenly the laws of physics had lost their meaning. 'How can Verhen be this strong? I had him pinned to the ground, and with Life Maelstrom empowering me, the gap in our physical abilities is abyssal.'

She charged forward again in order to impale him with her horns before he could heal, yet Lith seemed to move even faster than the Sekhmet. He managed to regain his balance and needed but a hand to force her to a halt by grabbing her head.

"Begone." While his left hand locked Iata into place, his right struck at her chin in an uppercut.

The blow made her stagger and exposed her head to a left hook that sent her brain bouncing against her skull like a pinball. As the concussion clouded her vision, Lith lunged forward with his right hand.

He grabbed War's hilt again, twisting the blade as he pulled it out. The motion freed War and almost cut off the Sekhmet's jaw. Lith was about to decapitate her when a Seven Headed Dragon dived from the sky, attacking him from behind while conjuring seven different spells at the same time.

Lith managed to dodge only thanks to Full Guard warning him and by Blinking right behind Iata, using her as a meat shield.

'Whoever this overgrown Hydra is may have seen my exit point, but now he has no way to make use of this knowledge without taking the Sekhmet out for me.' Lith thought.

Ufyl was on his same page so he used the willpower imbued within the spells to make them explode at a safe distance from Iata, blinding Lith's mystical senses as he Warped her to safety.

'Get a grip, you stupid cat. You almost got killed.' Like all those who belonged to the Hydra bloodline, the Seven Headed Dragon didn't mind wasting mana. He needed just one head to use his breathing technique to recover it while the other six kept attacking.

'I had him, Ufyl. I swear.' Iata replied. 'Despite that damn sword stuck in my mouth, I was about to rip Verhen into shreds when his strength suddenly grew beyond reason.'

'He didn't get stronger, you idiot. It was you who got weaker.' The Seven Headed Dragon used the mind link to show her how the Void Flames had not only dispelled the Life Maelstrom, but also the fusion magic coursing through her body.

'We already learned about this when he stormed the castle of Mandia. How could you forget?'

'Easy to say when you have seven heads and are not busy fighting for your life.' She replied.

'There's no point arguing among us now. I'll help you take down Verhen while Leari deals with the other Verhen.'
