Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2456

'Please, I'm no match for a regular bright violet-cored Awakened, let alone an old monster with Friya's talent.' Tista inwardly sneered at the cursed shield as it tried to catch her.

'The only thing that playing hero would achieve is becoming their hostage after Lith barely rescued Solus. I have to bring them close to the tower. Once we get there, Lith should become powerful enough to defeat these assholes otherwise we can escape.

'Either way is our win!'

"I see what you are doing but I won't let you, traitor!" Knightfall dispelled the Distortion Field for a split second, allowing Stargazer to Blink toward the tunnel of Demons of the Darkness.

Lith noticed the appearance of the entry and exit points, Blinking after the cursed scythe.

"Lith, no!" Tista screamed, knowing the dangers of using that kind of spell in the presence of a dimensional mage.

Alas, two words weren't enough to convey a proper warning and Lith wasn't aware of the nature of her opponents nor how skilled they were in their teamwork.

A cruel smile appeared on the host of the cursed shield as the space collapsed behind Lith and the resulting explosion throw him off balance.

Lith had positioned the exit point of his Blink so as to strike Stargazer in the back but the blast had ruined his attack and propelled him toward the enemy faster than he intended.

Stargazer's host smiled as the six Evil Eyes etched on the surface of the Yggdrasil haft turned their power inward and channeled it into the curved blade of the scythe.

The arc was wide, slow, and predictable, but Lith could see with the Eyes of Menadion that the blade now carried the collective power of the two cores which was further boosted by the Evil Eyes.

'Fuck me sideways! Double Edge is still damaged but I can't risk dodging that thing. If it hits Solus in her weakened state, she's never going to survive.' Lith channeled the power of his mana core into the blade, using War's skill, Gleipnir.

The golden fetters joined Lith, War, and Double Edge through their respective cores. Their collective might instantly fixed the dent and turned the black blade white from the mana flow within.

'The tower is close enough to boost me enough to match a bright violet core, but the problem is that I have no idea if the same stands for my Adamant weapons. That scythe is the product of ancient but powerful Forbidden Magic and is made of Davross.'

Lith thought as he aimed his strike so that War would intercept Stargazer on the flat side and avoid its edge.

The host of the cursed scythe smirked again as his weapon suddenly shapeshifted into a glaive. The awkward and slow arc turned into an elegant and quick downward slash that struck War from above, the haft pushing the sword down while the blade cut Lith's arms off.

He screamed in shock as fire and black blood gushed out from the stumps right below the elbow. Black tendrils of energy reconnected the severed parts. War used its enchantments to fly like an arrow at the enemy and protect his master.

"Oh, please." The glaive emitted a peal of joyless laughter as her host blasted the angry blade away with a Raging Sun.
