Supreme Magus novel Chapter 3295

Chapter 3295 Her Name (Part 2)

"They are both on their last leg and their bond allows me not to hold my punches anymore. Maybe their touching reunion made Verhen forget that the tower's priority is preserving Elphyn's life but I haven't.

I've killed three of her hosts already. Maybe the fourth time is the charm.' With a mere thought, the Yggdrasill collected several runes among those scattered in the sky and assembled them into another Annihilation.

It was overkill but the World Tree wanted to end the conflict before more of his Golems would be destroyed. With Verhen dead and Elphyn under their command, the battle would finally end.

Also, the Yggdrasill couldn't risk another person imprinting the tower before them again. The aura of the creature born from the fusion between Lith and Solus was still rising, its body was still growing in size when the anti-Guardian spell arrived. Golden scales emerged between the black ones, covering the red skin below.

Another set of arms, ending with lither fingers and entirely covered in golden scales, sprouted from the fusion's sides as its chest became wider and bigger. By the time the Annihilation arrived, two more sets of wings had just gently sprouted on the creature's back.

The Annihilation slowed down as soon as it entered the range of the tower's aura, the speed of the anti-Guardian spell dropping as if it was moving underwater.

The world energy itself turned against the spell, infiltrating the Annihilation and attempting to replace the willpower infused in it with that of the masters of the tower. The Yggdrasill felt the tug at their spell and shrugged it off with ease. The tower was a mindless object that followed pre-established protocols. It could produce a decent imitation of willpower but it was an imitation nonetheless.

Then, the Annihilation entered the range of the Tiamat Fear and it slowed down again, The anti-Guardian spell seemed to be moving through tar at first, then through molten lead, and lastly it stopped centimeters away from the creature.

The World Tree felt the Tiamat Fear seep inside the anti-Guardian spell and swiftly replace their will with another. The Yggdrasill fought hard, even diverting part of their focus from the other battles to push the kill shot home.

Yet with each millimeter of Tiamat Fear the Annihilation crossed, the Tree's influence over the spell plummeted. It wasn't a battle so much as a one-sided beating with the Tree's willpower being purged by the creature's and then kept out by the tower.

"This doesn't make sense.' The Yggdrasill thought as they lost the last shred of control over the anti-Guardian spell. I know Tiamat Fear and I know Domination very well. Neither can stop a tier five spell imbued with willpower on such close range. It's impos-'

The answer to the Tree's question came as the six eyes on the creature's face rearranged themselves in a circular shape and two more opened on its forehead. Two feminine eyes shining with golden light.

'Mogar almighty, how could I be this stupid? How could I forget that this is nothing like the forced bond with my Librarians? There's not just two of them now, they've become one!"

Two people could still argue and would still try to accomplish the same task each their own way. They could work together but that didn't mean they would work twice as good or as fast.

To achieve that, two people should set the "I" aside and only think and act as a "we". Something Lith and Solus had done for sixteen years and that the fusion turned from unity of intent to unity of soul, mind, and body.

The World Tree's first and biggest mistake was to use the Annihilation against Lith and Solus. Under normal circumstances, there was no way they could overpower the will of seven Awakened.
