Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2293

The When All Are One array worked even better than a mind link. It allowed its participants to gain full access to each other's body as long as they received permission and full trust.

Fyrwal was letting Tessa use her body as her own, taking control of the footwork and timing the blows to perfection. At the same time, Tessa was giving Fyrwal full access to her six extra heads.

A Titania lacked in mass compared to a Divine Beast while a Hydra lacked in strength. Together, they covered each other's weaknesses. It was like Thrud was fighting against two Hydras and two Titanias at the same time.

The Royal Fortress armor wasn't as heavy as the Arthan armor, but it was still made of Davross and the modern magic partly bridged the gap. On top of that, the Mad Queen couldn't use any spell in fear that Domination would turn it against her.

Yet her situation quickly got even worse.

Tessa didn't use her extra heads, but her body was still under her control and so was Fyrwal's. She used them both to body cast several arrays that struck at Thrud's soldiers, Ne'sra citizens, and even Phloria.

Thrud had sent her away to use her as bait in the hope that Faluel would do something stupid or use Phlroia as a hostage if needed.

If not for Orsat the Red Griffon swooping down to the rescue, Phloria would have been caught in the crossfire.

"Are you insane?" Thrud couldn't make heads or tails of that senseless slaughter.

"No. What about you?" Tessa sent her vines to feed on the corpses to make up for the nutrients lost.

Even though Tessa and Fyrwal were winning, Thrud kept injuring them and there was nothing like meat to heal from a grievous wound.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" The Titania laughed. "You are attacking the city so no matter who wins, you'll get blamed for this destruction. I bet that you won't have an easy time controlling Ne'sra after killing so many civilians."

"What about Phloria?" Thrud could already foresee Tessa's heartless ploy bearing poisonous fruits that would screw her plans.

"What *about* her?" Tessa shrugged. "I've been called to kill you. I don't do rescues. Besides, Phloria is no Juria or Oghrom, just one of their many descendants. Her parents are still alive and can make another daughter. No biggie."

Thrud clenched her teeth as her whole strategy fell apart.

If Phloria died, no more Dragon Knight for days. No way to torture Lith or to lure him in the open until she was out of the rebirth chamber. Even worse, her invasion plans would be brought to a halt.

'Fucking Fae! They are all psychopaths. Using a hostage against them is like using a pillow to hit a bull.' The Mad Queen released all the Life Maelstrom she had left.

She used her bloodline abilities at the same time to push Tessa and Fyrwal away while activating the full power of Arthan's Sword.

"Not so fast!" Even from a distance, Fyrwal used her Domination to wrestle the silver lightning away from Thrud and even mess with the sword.

"If you like toys so much, do you want to see mine?" A Yggdrasill staff with a round head and seven elemental crystals etched on it appeared in Tessa's hand, generating an unknown array.

In the meantime, Quylla was fighting one on one against a Phoenix, and she was winning. She used Dimensional Ruler to Warp behind the enemy whenever Rayne focused on the attack.
