Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2364

"Of course, Solus would help me and she'd spend much more time with our daughter than you, but who keeps count of stuff like that?"

"Son of a Dragon!" She replied in mock outrage. "I walked straight into that. By the way, where's Solus? After everything you guys went through today, I expected her to spend some time with us before going to bed."

Solus's room, at the same time.

"Thanks for keeping me company, Tista." Solus said. "I really didn't want to stay alone but at the same time, I don't want to bother Lith and Kami."

"Don't mention it." Tista sighed. "I need company too, but with Bodya still on the frontlines to recapture Thrud's cities you are the best I got."

"Wow! So kind of you. You are making me blush." Solus replied with a sneer. _{frёewebnoѵēl.com}

"As I said, don't mention it." Tista yawned, too tired from the long day to care about sarcasm between friends. "By the way, you never answered Kamila when she asked you how you feel."

"Because I was waiting for this moment. I need to speak with both you and Nyka." Solus replied.

"Nyka!" Tista sat up abruptly. "How could I forget about her until now? She fused with Dawn to help us. What if now the Horseman knows everything about you?"

"Only one way to find out." Solus pushed the rune of the Vampire on her communication amulet.

"Solus!" Nyka answered immediately. "You sure took your sweet time. I was starting to get worried sick."

"I'm sorry, Nyka, but first things first." Solus raised her palm out to stop the barrage of questions about her side of the fight. "Is Dawn still with you?"

"Yes." Nyka slightly opened her shirt, revealing a white crystal amid her bosom.

"How much does she know about me?"

"Only that you and Lith are bonded like a Horseman and her host. She also knows you are some kind of powerful relic, of course." Nyka replied. "Before bonding with her, I asked Baba Yaga to seal off the mind fusion.

"Neither of us can access the other's mind without explicit consent. When Dawn wants to know something, she has to ask me and I have to agree. We still have both our free will and personality.

"Like this, we can both see and hear what's around me." She pointed at the exposed crystal. "Now, instead, Dawn is locked inside her real body."

The crystal disappeared under Nyka's skin and then her entire body shapeshifted into Dawn's.

"This is the way I can protect my secrets." Her voice was melodious and sweet, but also much wiser and detached than the Vampire's. "I'm glad to make your acquaintance, Solus Verhen, but I don't plan on sharing much with any of you."

"And neither do I with you." Solus replied. "Do you mind bringing Nyka back? There's something I have to say to both of you."

The white crystal emerged from Dawn's flesh, making her snowy skin sparkle like silver.
