Supreme Magus novel Chapter 3387

"The explanation is simple." Menadion took a deep breath to calm herself. "You shouldn’t get a headache just like you shouldn’t be able to study any of the pieces of the Apprentice Set.

"I made both sets, true, but I also knew they might have been used against me. So, I made sure neither Menadion Set could uncover their respective crafting techniques or unlock codes.

"Why do you think I programmed the True Heir of Menadion protocol in the tower? "It was exactly for the case something happened to me before I had the time to impart all of my secrets to you, Solus."

"Then how is it possible?" Lith asked.

"In the same way spirit crystals are popping out of the pieces of the Master Set and some floors have more enchantments than I imbued them with." Ripha shrugged. "Solus’ bond with the tower changed it just like bonding with you changed her, Lith.

"As you grew up and your blood mutated to adapt to the constant struggle between your three life forces, Solus mutated with you. The tower used your essence to rebuild her body which in turn mutated the tower.

"You got inside my daughter in more ways than one, young man." Ripha grunted, crossing her arms.

"Ripha!" Kamila didn’t know whether to be more embarrassed or angry.

"Fine. What do you want to call it, then? I’m open to suggestions."

An awkward silence fell over the room as Solus blushed up to her ears and Lith cleared his throat in awkwardness.

"Can we please change the subject?" Solus whimpered after a few minutes passed and no one found a fitting answer.

"Of course." Lith said. "I’ve made all the necessary arrangements for my first trip. Are you sure you want to come with us, Solus? Wouldn’t you rather travel a bit on your own?"

"He’s right, Solus." Menadion nodded. "In your shoes, I’d spare myself the sausage fest and do something interesting."

"Thanks, but no thanks." Solus emitted a high-pitched whine that she cleared by drinking some water. "Kami is coming too and she can use some company. Also, Mom can’t get anywhere without Lith and I’d still need to come back to recharge."

"I’m coming along only because if Lith leaves the babies alone for more than a few hours they cry." Kamila replied.

"Indeed" Lith nodded. "I miss Elysia and Valeron as much as they miss me and if I were to bring them away with me for days on end Kami would be worried sick about us all the time.

"It would be hardly a vacation if I had to spend it on the amulet to reassure her. On top of that, she’s not going to participate in our activities and neither can you. This is supposed to be a father-son bonding experience."

"What about Leria?" Solus pointed out.

"Fine, a father-child bonding experience." Lith conceded. "I couldn’t leave Leria out just like I had to invite Senton and Trion. As much as I hate it, Leria needs her father and I have to share mine."

"Don’t worry, Mom and I will stay out of your hair." Solus said. "Besides, if anything happens, you need to tower to move quickly and without leaving a paper trail."

"That’s true." Lith sighed. "Off we go, then."

Kellar Region, City of Jambel, the following day.

There was no Warp Gate leading straight to Jambel so Lith and his family had to move to the nearest city. There were too many people with him and travelling comfortably would have taken two DoLoreans or several Warp Steps.
