Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2439

"It would be the definitive proof that they are right. We'd make them think that we are afraid of them and we'd surely fall into a trap. All their accomplice has to do is push a few buttons to send us into the middle of a carefully staged trap from which we would have no way out. _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}

"Sealed Space blocks even my link with my mother and with enough arrays, taking down the three of us is child's play."

"Good gods!" Nyka blurted out in surprise, taking over her own mouth for a second.

"Thank the gods you are here, Dawn." Solus was already rushing to cancel the reservation when she realized that the Horseman was right. "What do you propose we do?"

"Nothing." Dawn walked briskly toward her hotel, making sure that no one followed her and alerting Baba Yaga of Night's latest ploy. "As long as we stay in a populated area, there's nothing they can do to us.

"Remember that they want to capture us alive and that we are currently in a flying fortress. The automated defenses would take them down in a second and they know it. That's why they want us to panic and act without thinking.

"We'll continue our vacation as if nothing has happened and leave by flight without notice. We can either call my mother to pick us up or use another Gate since the accomplice of the living legacies can't interfere unless they know both our position and destination."

"I'd go for the latter. If we are followed, we would be attacked the moment we leave the city and Mother is busy at the moment. She can drop everything to reach us, but with Nestamaath constantly moving and no geyser around, it would take her time."

The word geyser made an idea pop into Solus' mind.

'I just need to wait until Nestamaath flies near one. At that point, Nyka seals Dawn, I conjure the tower, and then we'll tower Warp to Lith in a heartbeat without leaving a trace behind.

'If we call Malyshka, instead, she'd be forced to wait until Nestamaath is far away enough in order to not be mistaken by an enemy and attacked by the automated defenses.

"By the time the living legacies realize what has happened, I'll be back to Lutia and if they dare follow us there, they'll be the ones falling into our trap.'

Verhen Mansion, at the same time.

"Farm Night! I finally got some peace and she's already working to destroy my life." When Solus had called to alert Lith of the threat, he was having breakfast with his family.

"Don't worry about it." Solus' hologram shrugged. "I have still plenty of mana and I didn't use my breathing technique much. I'm not going to wait until I'm running on fumes so even in case we get attacked, I can defend myself."

"Send me the details about your departure via Soluspedia." Lith nodded. "Council amulets are supposed to be untraceable but better safe than sorry."

"Agreed. Good luck with your first lesson about Void Magic. I wish I was there with you." She said with a sigh.

"Me too. Preparing the slides has been a hassle. It took me days to dumb the concepts down enough so that even Kami understood what I was saying." His reply earned him a punch on the arm.

"What do you mean even I?" Kamila pouted. "I'm not stupid. It's just that I'm no mage and all those things you said were baffling at best."
