Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2528

2528 Voidfeather Dragon (Part 2)

Luckily for Lith, time moved slowly in the Mindscape, allowing him to take in the revelation without the surprise breaking his hold on the Voidfeather's fury.

'If this thing is just the embodiment of my emotions cranked up to eleven due to Grandma's and Leegaain's blood, then I have to reason with him like I would with myself.' Lith had no idea how to reach an agreement with the Voidfeather, but at least now he knew the source of the problem.

'With my luck, until I succeed, I won't be able to reach the bright violet core. That's a problem for another day, though. Now I have to stop myself from screwing weeks of careful planning!'

'Why do you stop me?' The Voidfeather telepathically screamed. 'Why do you hate me? I kept you alive for all these years and this is how you thank me? You've let so many of my friends die. You've let so many of my treasures get taken away from me.

'I won't let Solus be another casualty of your sick plans. I won't lose anyone or anything again. No more. Never more!'

Lith tried to make the Voidfeather reason but the Dragon's thoughts were chaotic and his attitude was that of a child throwing a tantrum. Lith could feel the Voidfeather's suffering from the years spent in a losing battle with the Void.

His frustration at Lith for denying him peace and putting into danger the people he loved.

The memories of Yurial, Phloria, Lark, Mirim, and all the opportunities that Lith had missed and the things he had never shared with them had left deep scars in the Voidfeather's mind.

Scars that could never heal because death had frozen the damage in time, leaving behind only regrets and what-ifs.

'I'm not doing this for myself.' Lith replied. 'This was Solus' idea. I only care for my share of Morok's legacy, how I get it is irrelevant to me. She is the one who wants to save them. If you want to let her down, be my guest.'

His words stunned the Voidfeather Dragon stiff and the surprise grew further when Lith stopped fighting the Divine Beast for the control of his body.

'How do I know this isn't just an attempt to manipulate me?'

'Are you telling me that you don't remember what happened just a few hours ago?' Now it was Lith's turn to be shocked.

'I'm too busy making sure that the jackass doesn't ruin everything to stalk you. I have no idea what happened since Phloria died.' The Voidfeather Dragon replied.

'Are you serious?' Lith blurted out in surprise.

'That's the last time you let me out.' The Dragon snorted. 'Haven't you seen your Tiamat's body? The jackass takes most of the space. Aside from your eyes and my wings, everything else belongs to him.'

Lith had to admit that his Dragon side had failed to manifest itself until the deep violet, when he had achieved the first feathered wing. For the second, he had to wait to reach the violet, when the Void had stopped fighting for dominance.

'Let me bring you up to speed, then.' Lith attempted a mind fusion and failed spectacularly.

'We don't need a mind fusion nor do we read each other's mind.' The Voidfeather Dragon guffawed in Lith's face. 'They are called respectively remembering and thinking, moron.'

It took the Divine Beast a split second to fill in the blanks in his memory.

'Damn Solus and her big heart!' He inwardly roared after understanding the need for stealth. 'Why did you let her volunteer for such a dangerous mission? These vermin aren't worth a single strand of her hair.'

'I agree, but you know her.' Lith shrugged. 'You know how much he suffered for the wargs and Echidna. If even one of Glemos' children can be saved and we let them be massacred or if anything happens to our friends because we sit this out...'

'She'll never let us hear the end of it.' The Voidfeather Dragon grumbled. 'Fine. Consider yourself lucky. You have called the right man for this job.'

'I know, George.' The Voidfeather said with a huge grin on its snout. _{fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com}
