Supreme Magus novel Chapter 3207

Chapter 3207 First Step Forward

"What's normal?" Lith asked after taking his eyes off Kamila's face. "The fuck?"

As the Dread Flames disappeared, fresh grass and undergrowth sprouted throughout the clearing above the mana geyser at a speed noticeable to the naked eye.

Lith bent down, using Demon Grasp on the soil.

"It's incredible." He said.

"Yeah, too bad those words can be applied to too many things that just happened. Do you have any idea how little 'incredible' narrows it down?" Kamila sighed. "You have to be more specific."

"The corruption left by the first Abomination I fought, the Wither, is completely gone." Lith replied. "Eight years have passed since then yet even with the world energy constantly gushing out of the mana geyser, the taint of Chaos was hard to cleanse.

"Now it's completely gone. The sudden growth isn't due to the Dread Flames. At least not directly.

"The lingering Chaos element had created a sort of dam that limited the energy flow of the geyser and now that dam is broken. The world energy that had been bottled up until now is flooding the Trawn woods."

Unbeknownst to Lith, the phenomenon went beyond the clearing he and his wife stood upon. During the past eight years, the Trawn woods had undergone many quantitative changes.

The number of magical beasts had increased every year as more animals evolved and the preexisting packs of magical beasts produced new litters. Reaper, Lifebringer, and Sentinel had evolved to Awakened Emperor Beasts and each one of them had sired many cubs.

The presence of the tower whenever Lith was in Lutia focused and spread the magical aura encompassing the woods further, affecting the flora as well. Then, Protector and his children had moved there and so did Nalrond and many of the magical creatures that currently lived near Lith's home.

The taint of Chaos was the only reason such quantitative change in the world energy coursing through the Trawn woods had not brought forth a qualitative change as well. Until now.

The Dread Flames had done more than remove the toxic impurities left by the Wither after going on a rampage for three days and by the scattering of the residual energy of his body upon his death.

They had also removed the natural impurities in the soil, unclogging the invisible arteries through which Mogar's life breath flowed. The byproduct of the silver flames wasn't the broken, useless matter that the blue flames would have left.

The natural impurities had been transformed into ashes mystical in nature that fertilized the soil with nutrients and mana. The Dread Flames had turned the mana geyser from a fountain that nourished solely the clearing into a river that watered the entirety of the woods by carving invisible irrigation channels.

Each magical beast served as a focus point and each Emperor Beast living in the woods was akin to an auxiliary core, spreading and amplifying the world energy further.

After eight years of slumber, the Trawn woods was stirring, taking its first step toward Awakening like the White Griffon Academy's forest and other magical places.

Yet this a story for another day.

"Oh, okay." Kamila had gone through too many sleepless nights and faced one grieving madman from Earth too many to waste time understanding the implications of what her husband was saying.

The only thing she cared about was that he was back in her arms. Kamila stood on her tiptoes and gave Lith a sweet kiss, taking care not to squeeze Elysia between them.
