Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2801

Chapter 2801 To Kill a Magus (Part 1)

The good thing about tier five spells was that they worked the same way as true magic so the Nightwalker could still salvage the situation by consuming enough mana to cleanse Lith's and repair the armor.

Just like Lith wanted.

The previous Final Sunset had served the same purpose. To force the undead to consume the mana stored in his blood core to purge the God of Nightstorm of the foreign energy signature.

"Let me guess, a Source Magic spell costs way more than two tier five spells." Lith said. "With no breathing technique and no more thralls for a sip, you won't last long."

Thanks to the elemental crystals, Lith had consumed only a fraction of the mana necessary for his spells whereas the Nightwalker could only tap into his own reserves.

"True, but it's long enough!" Ulma restored the God of Nightstorm and conjured another tier five Source Magic spell, Dark Mastery.

Earth magic manipulated the rubble, giving them shape, while air magic lifted and propelled the constructs, giving them speed. Water magic soaked the rocks, making them more flexible and easier to adjust their density.

Nightblood gave it the final kicker, increasing the destructive power and giving the spell the same appearance as a hard-darkness construct. If they actually existed, of course.

Lith recognized it as the same spell that was still troubling his Demons. Its effects resembled Light Mastery, but earth magic made it sturdier while darkness made it deadlier.

"I hope you like this." Ulma said. "Tiennon Zavra devised this spell to kill Manohar while playing at the god of healing's own game but I guess you'll have to do. Let's see if the so-called Supreme Magus can stand a chance against the opus of the Lost Magus!"

With God of Nightstorm back at full strength Lith's physical prowess was his only advantage and Dark Mastery tipped the scales in the Nightwalker's favor.

By combining darkness, water, and air, the elemental spheres could produce any trielemental spell that the Nightwalker could think of, regardless of the tier. The darkness-infused stone constructs defended the undead while also attacking Lith from every side.

The fight had suddenly turned into a three against one with Lith having to deal with Ulma's swordplay, the spheres' unrelenting spellcasting, and Dark Mastery's physical onslaught.

The Nightwalker was no Awakened so he had kept those spells at the ready for the moment when Lith managed to reach him. Ulma knew that, without body casting, he would lack the opportunity to weave new spells.

On top of that, while the Tiamat would have been free to divide his focus between old and new spells, every iota of willpower that the Nightwalker hadn't infused in his spells before the fight started would have gone to waste.

<nulli>'I stand corrected. Verhen is smart, but I'm no idiot either.' Ulma thought. <nulli>'I never expected to get to this point but luckily, I prepared for it. All the mana I have left I can devote it to these two spells. It should be enough. It must be enough!'

Yet Lith Spirit Blinked away every time he was cornered, conjured the Spirit Barrier of the armor to absorb surprise attacks, and exploited Ragnar?k to harass the enemy.

No matter what elemental aspect Lith enhanced, Ulma ended up consuming mana to repair his armor and the damage on his weapon kept piling up. Even the coating from the God of Nightstorm spell couldn't protect the Adamant from the angry blade. _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}
