Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2585

2585 New Home (Part 1)

Merchants and travelers reported multiple sightings of black Dragons ridden by a winged knight.

Some believed that the Gorgon Empire had sent Leegaain's children as scouts before an invasion. Others that after the Dragon Dance, the ancient Wyrms who slumbered in the bowels of the Kingdom had awoken and were preparing to establish their own country on the surface.

All of them were wrong, but that's a story for another day.

The final Warping Array marked the end of the journey and made Morok sigh heavily again.

"What is this place, Mom?" Garrik stared in awe at the magnificent building standing in front of them.

It consisted of a two-story house made of silver veined white stones, a sturdy material capable of channeling and amplifying dozens of arrays at the same time. The sloped roof was covered by enchanted tiles bearing a different rune each.

They would turn silver during hot days to reflect light and keep the house cool and black during cold days to absorb and store the sun's heat.

As for the runes, thanks to the mana geyser below the estate fueling them, they could conjure and overlap multiple kinds of offensive arrays at the same time, combining their enchantments to obtain a different effect based on the enemy.

Each floor occupied 500 square meters (17,660 square feet) and on the back of the building was visible a tall keep over 50 meters (165') high that was likely to serve as an observation point.

The property was surrounded by an enchanted wall over three meters (10) high and extended far enough to grant direct access to the luscious green of the nearby woods.

The group had Warped inside a garden with enough space to allow a Divine Beast to sit or for several packs of magical beasts to run and play together. Benches and flower beds had been arranged to form paths centered around a large fountain.

The fresh water gushing from the several nozzles formed arcs that reflected sunlight and, with the help of a simple spell, generated permanent rainbows. At the center of the fountain, there was the statue of a man that shapeshifted into different forms, the only thing they had in common was that all of them wore a deep white robe.

The human form held a book, the Dragon form was depicted hammering something on a Forge, and something in-between the other two wielded a sword.

Garrik gaped at the various wonders, flying back and forth without reaching any because incapable of deciding which one to see first.

"Thave no idea." Ryla looked around the place with equal amazement, but only after making sure that there was a stable and powerful flow of world energy coming from below.

"This is going to be your home until we find a permanent solution." Morok grunted as he came down Xenagrosh's back. "Welcome to the Verhen Mansion."

The Ernas ruled over one of the richest and most powerful regions of the Kingdom, but they had no place where to host the Fomors. Some of their homes and fortresses had been built over a mana geyser, but they were all inhabited and well connected with the local settlements.

The presence of two non-humans would never go unnoticed and even though the Ernas had at their disposal every means necessary to ensure their safety, Morok didn't want Carrik to just exchange one prison for another.
