Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2646

"Why not add something about the white core, your world tribulations, or Creation Magic?" Quylla asked. "There's no point in wasting a question slot. Even if the answer doesn't make sense, it could still point you in the right direction."

"That's exactly the problem." Lith took a few deep breaths while studying his own body weight, the feeling of his tensing muscles, and the flow of mana through his body.

Just like Solus, he still thought of himself as a human and always keeping his original form didn't help. He wanted to carry his mass inside the Mindscape so as to have a shot at fighting the apparitions.

"Tell me, Quylla. If you were in Mogar's shoes and I asked you to teach me the secrets of dimensional magic with a single hologram, how would you do it?"

The question surprised her and it took her a while to ponder it long enough to find a decent answer.

"That would be impossible." She replied. "There are too many factors to control and the energy in play is equally complex. The best I could do if you were to know squat about dimensional magic is show you a basic spell like Loop and hope that you'd understand the rest on your own."

"My point exactly." He nodded. "And that's if you wanted to teach me something in the first place whereas we know that Mogar doesn't operate that way. Her answer is always something vague that points to the solution but it's useless by itself.

"My bet is that if I ask for Creation Magic, I'll get either Grandma or Baba Yaga since they are the only teachers I could get. Too bad they are both out of my league and would kick my ass in an instant."

"Damn, I'm afraid you are right." Quylla tormented her lower lip while racking her brain for another valuable question.

"As for the white core, I have no idea where to start since I've never researched it. Heck, I don't even have the bright violet so I'm pretty sure that even a friendly advice would go over my head, let alone some confusing riddle.

"Lastly, asking about my world tribulations is a terrible idea. From what I understood by talking with Grandma and the others who underwent them like Scarlett, knowing the answer is likely to sabotage the test altogether.

"Mogar was pretty clear to Solus when they said that they don't allow cheating."

"I agree, but then why don't you ask her about Void Magic?" Quylla asked.

"Why would I do that?"

"Because if Mogar shows you an image, you can learn from it. If they summon your own echo, instead, you can match it for sure. I mean, you are the creator of Void Magic. Grappling against yourself shouldn't be an impossible task." She replied.

"You are a damn genius, Little One." Lith ruffled her hair, drawing many curses from her for both the moniker and treating her like a child.

"I'm taller than Solus, dammit!" She pouted while pointing at her still-laughing friend.

"I'm tall inside and he knows it." Solus chuckled.

Lith stepped inside the heart of the magical formation and sat cross-legged in the middle of the final circle before powering it up with a drop of his blood. He closed his eyes, feeling himself being dragged toward the light in a way eerily similar to the two times he had died.
