Chapter 3303 Unique Fusion (Part 4)

"But-" Everyone said in unison, each with a different degree of stuttering.

Orion and Vastor were awed at the presence of the mother of Forgemastering, Tessa and Fyrwal were moved by the sudden reunion with their friend, while Zoreth and Bytra were terrified by her wrath.

"Nice talk. Giddyap!" Menadion dug her taloned heels into Bytra's sides and the Raiju instinctively bolted forward like she had a Demon at her heels instead of on her back.

'Now we are talking.' Ripha said via a mind link as the Raiju's figure blurred even for Awakened eyes. 'Run to Epphy and don't stop even if it costs you your life.'

'Why me?' Bytra sweated bullets, but not from exertion.

It was a cold sweat born from guilt and fear.

'Because you and that Dragon knew about Epphy and kept your mouth shut.' Menadion replied. 'She trusted you in the past so I can trust that if anyone gets too close to the truth, you'll run interference.'

'No, I mean, why did you choose me as your steed instead of a Dragon or any of your friends. You trust them too.' The Raiju swallowed a lump of saliva.

'Because you are faster, you owe me, and, most importantly, I have no experience riding Dragons and they have no reason to listen to me. Besides, I've fought with and against you so I know very well how our powers mix.'

'We've fought together in the past?' Bytra had a hard time not turning her head in surprise but she managed to resist.

She couldn't afford another tumble, not during what might be one of the redeeming moments of her life.

'You don't remember that?' Ripha sounded equally surprised. 'You really are a clone. Save your questions for later and follow my lead!'

The emerald eye on Menadion's forehead and the emerald streak in her hair lit up, stirring the rumbling storm clouds as she sought control of Skyfire. Bytra helped Menadion to the best of her abilities and together they sent several lightning bolts at the World Tree.

Natural lightning moved too fast for an Awakened to defend against it, especially someone like the Yggdrasill who was forever stuck in the same place. The problem was that even normal wood didn't conduct electricity and enchanted wood was much more resistant.

The World Tree's bark blackened in the points of impact and Origin Flames spread from there but for someone of that size, it was no different than a mosquito bite. It stung and itched, no more and no less.

'Fuck! What happened to your ability to conjure and control lightning?' Menadion rebuked the innocent Raiju.

'I still have it, but it didn't work until the old Fringe came down and now the Storm Dragons have hogged most of the air element.' Bytra replied. 'There's only one of me and a whole greed of them.

'Take this, master Menadion, maybe it can help you.' The Absolution coating her main horn shapeshifted back to its hammer form and jumped in Ripha's hands after Bytra marked her as an authorized user.

'What am I supposed to- Daughter of a bastard!' Ripha had already seen the Absolution while following Solus as a wandering soul but she had never had the opportunity to examine it. 'This is a modified version of my Fury.

'A modern, way better version of my Fury!'
