Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2300

Lith's plan was to quickly open and close a Spirit Warp to maim the Golden Griffon. It was a plan as good as it was predictable.

'Fuck me sideways!' He could recognize the familiar feeling of the Static Field array.

It kept the space around the lost academy compressed and negated the effects of dimensional magic unless one could afford as much mana as that poured in Static Field.

'This is really bad. Solus has no quick way to retreat and I can't get inside the Golden Griffon even if I manage to peek at useful dimensional coordinates. Hystar has thought of everything.'

Lith kept using pairs of Cursed Flames from his mouth and wings, trying them all and hoping to find one against which the Golden Griffon was weak.

He found none and soon his life force started to hurt from exertion.

Cursed Flames had a destructive power and speed on par with Cursed Elements but what the Tiamat could produce was so small compared to the titan that the damage dealt was irrelevant.

Or better, the small holes would have piled up into a crippling wound if not for the Golden Griffon self-repair mechanism. Even if Lith managed to always hit the same spot, it wouldn't have been fast enough.

Lith hit the leg with Double Edge, but it felt like he was a regular man trying to cut down a boulder. Zoreth was stronger than him and her Sky Piercer claws were imbued with the power of Chaos but she wasn't faring any better.

Her blows cut as deep as they could, but for something that size it was but a scratch. A scratch that healed.

"Oh my! You are an impressive little bunch. Let's kick things up a notch." The fact that Hystar kept laughing didn't bode well.

Then, when the plates of Golden Griffon's armor opened, everything became clear.

The academy unleashed a volley of Tower Tier Spirit spells that exploded in unison. Their firepower and wide area of effect made them impossible to dodge without dimensional magic.

Bytra was the fastest, but even she couldn't outrun the energy shockwave. She and Solus were blown out of the sky and crashed on the ground, opening a meters-deep crater. _{freeweɓnovel.cѳm}

Lith managed to survive only because he had kept himself at a distance, alternating Cursed Flames and Spirit Spells.

Zoreth, instead, took the full brunt of the damage.

Once the dust settled, the biggest piece of her left was the size of a car. Her troll core kicked in, using tendrils of flesh to reconnect what was left of her body and rebuild it from scratch.

Trolls had no flashy powers but they could survive as long as a single piece of their body remained.

In the blink of an eye, the Shadow Dragon was back. Smaller, thinner, and starving, but back nonetheless.

"I hunger!" Zoreth roared as she plunged her maw and claws deep inside the Golden Griffon.

This time, however, she didn't let go and consumed both matter and energy.

Her Eldritch side feasted upon both while her troll side converted the acquired energy into matter, returning Zoreth to her original size.
