Supreme Magus novel Chapter 722

Rizo was the one that was going to take Phloria’s body. The other Odi might consider her ugly due to her height and strength, but to a fighter, she was just perfect.

\u003c "Get away from my vessel, kid. I’d hate for my new form to be tainted by the blood of a filthy beast."\u003e Rizo’s movements were calm and controlled while he pointed his sword against Lith as a challenge.

"Fuck off." Lith replied, unleashing all of the spells he had kept at the ready for Jiira. The two men didn’t understand each other’s words, but their faces spoke volumes.

Rizo’s was full of pride and contempt, whereas Lith’s was brimming with unbridled rage and killing intent. Two hands made of living streams of lightning, each one the size of a person, clutched on the Odi while a jet stream of black flames pierced through his chest.

Lith’s tier five spells Final Sunset and Death Grip struck Rizo to no avail. The swordmaster laughed while activating his Great Fortress armor’s enchantment. By imbuing it with mana, it generated an energy barrier that blocked the incoming attacks.

Its limitation was that it required a lot of mana to protect its master from such powerful prolonged spells, yet mana wasn’t an issue for Rizo. The Reactor made it the absolute defense, with no weak points.

\u003c "Not bad, kid. I wish I had some decent meat for a barbeque. Your flames make you a poor excuse of a mage but an excellent stove."\u003e Rizo laughed, showing the monster that a true noble didn’t need the God’s Will array to prevail.

Solus quickly analyzed the armor and gave Lith the results of her observations.

’Hence, that armor is almost perfect.’ She thought.

’Thanks, Solus. It’s just as I predicted. This guy is just a moron that uses a tool without having any idea about how it works. Let’s teach him a lesson.’ Lith replied.

Jiira had been a difficult opponent and Rizo appeared to be even worse, yet Lith thought nothing of him. After watching Yondra die between his arms, after seeing Phloria being tortured, he could feel something twisting inside of himself, clawing to escape.

He could feel it in the low rumble of the earth around him, in the unnatural warmth of the air in the room. Burning inside of him there was a black flame born of force and will that for some reason couldn’t find its way out.

The Odi had taken a lot from Lith. The thought of being able to put an end to their entire race by killing those in front of him was the best payback he could think of.

Lith moved his spells, making them flank Rizo and leaving his front exposed before hurling a river of Origin Flames which started to attack more than just the barrier, striking at its very enchantment.

\u003c "Origin Flames? Guuna, it seems we’ve got you a furnace!"\u003e Rizo laughed again, but the laughter died when he noticed that there was no end to the flames. Lith kept inhaling and exhaling as fast as he could, piling up more blue flames than he ever did before.

\u003c "It must be a monster, not an Emperor Beast. Only monsters are crazy enough to waste their strength like that."\u003e Rizo said. The first wave did nothing to his barrier. The second and the third produced no effect as well, but from the fourth onwards he felt that something was wrong.

No matter how much water magic he used to cool the surrounding air, Rizo felt burning.
