Supreme Magus novel Chapter 3189

Chapter 3189 Perfect Opportunity (Part 1)

"Your hero?" Derek burst into a mocking laughter and poked at the boy's forehead, healing all his wounds.

"I'm not your hero, boy. I'm no one's hero. If you want a hero, you have to become your own. That's what I did."

Despite the Void's cruel tone, the boy felt sadness and compassion in his voice. Even amid all that chaos and mayhem, the boy noticed his dislocated shoulder didn't hurt anymore.

"Please-"

"It's nice hearing you finally admit it, brother." A pillar of darkness the size of a car descended from the sky, hitting both the Void and the boy. "I've always known you were just pretending to be good.

"Now finally everyone will know I was right all along!"

As the Horseman of Night descended from the sky on top of his steed, fear reached a new height and the citizens of Zeska screamed like Mogar was going to end.

Unlike Silverwing, Orpal had nothing to do while Night worked on merging the crystals except screaming in pain and gritting his teeth. Luckily for him, the Darmoq outpost on Jiera had extended the range of the Kingdom's interlink, giving him something to read.

After weeks of reading through pain, Night had finally done it. Dusk's red crystal and her own black crystal had started to merge. The process was far from complete but at least Orpal's suffering was mostly over.

While Night worked on synergizing the two crystals and bringing them closer to merging into one, Orpal used Accumulation to refine his mana core. He used his breathing technique day and night, sleeping only when Invigoration didn't work anymore.

Discipline and the doubled flow from the crystals had brought his core to the bright blue, one step away from the deep violet and the potential awakening of his Vurdalak bloodline.

Yet it also brought some bad news. No pillar had manifested to support Orpal's breakthrough and if not for Night's regenerative abilities boosted by Dusk's crystal, the Vurdalak would have died on the spot.

'Whatever I am, whatever I'll become, Mogar doesn't want me more than my own parents!' He thought. 'This entire planet has turned its back on me.'

While waiting for Night to finish the fusion and his body to be ready for the deep violet, the Royal Edict about Lith's disappearance had popped out on Orpal's communication amulet.

Considering it a sign of destiny, Orpal had traveled back to Garlen, always keeping the amulet at hand and checking for any news, no matter if they were rumors or an actual sighting.

After waiting for days, his patience had been rewarded. The alarm had resounded in Zeska, a city he knew well from the War of the Griffons. Thanks to Moonlight, each Steps covered hundreds of kilometers, bringing him to his destination in less than a minute.

Now, after months of humiliation and weeks of suffering, the perfect opportunity for retribution was at hand.

"Who the hell are you?" Derek swatted the pillar away with Ragnar?k, revealing that both he and the boy were unscathed.

"Are you really amnesiac? Are you telling me this isn't just another of your schemes to do whatever the almighty Lith Verhen wants with impunity?" Orpal and Night were flabbergasted.

"Amnesiac?" Derek Blinked the boy to safety and was about to crush the pompous jackass like a fly but then the word hit him like a sledgehammer.

It broke through the complex scenario drawn by his paranoia, offering him a much simpler answer to the weirdness of his condition.

"Do we know each other?" He asked in honest confusion.

"If we know each other?" Orpal couldn't have been more offended if Lith had just pissed on his head and broadcasted the event throughout Mogar. "How dare you forget about me? You've destroyed my life!
