Supreme Magus novel Chapter 944

Chapter 944 Creation and Chaos Part 2

Night would have liked to Blink away, but they were in the middle of the encirclement created by Supernovas, and it fully covered the dimensional spell’s area of effect and then some.

"You are insane." She said while bracing herself for the impact. She pumped as much mana as she could inside the Black Rose armor and engulfed her body with a thick layer of darkness.

"Indeed!" Manohar replied as the world around them turned into the rough equivalent of the surface of the sun.

Meanwhile, on the outside, Balkor was amazed by both Manohar’s control over his spell and his foolishness. Not a single speck of light or fire escaped the encirclement, leaving the god of death able to fully focus on his own spell.

Just like light and darkness were the two sides of the same coin, Creation Magic had its own counterpart in Chaos Magic. Salaark had forbidden its practice because it was too dangerous, but Balkor had no option left.

He cursed his hubris for showing so many skills to Baba Yaga’s Horseman. Now that she knew what he was capable of, the Black Night would never leave him alone until she got what she wanted.

’If I back down now, I’ll live in fear whenever Salaark is away for her personal business. I need to show Night that by messing with me she has more to lose than to gain.’ He thought.

Contrary to what many believed, the greatest danger of conjuring Chaos magic didn’t lie in losing control of its darkness component. When that happened, the caster would simply and quickly die.

The use of Chaos magic required to completely separate light from darkness, but while darkness would be shoot at the enemy light would remain. Without its other half, the light element would stimulate the metabolism of its caster to the extreme, turning each second into a year.

The few mages who practiced Chaos magic would either be eaten by the darkness, consumed by the light or both. Only Abominations could safely use it because their bodies could absorb the light element without a limit.

Balkor was just a fake Awakened and his life force would have already been extinguished if not for Salaark’s treatments, he couldn’t afford to make a single mistake.

While Manohar’s spell ravaged the underground complex, causing the room to tremble and dust to fall from the ceiling, Balkor never lost his focus. He split darkness and light in two separate spheres, holding them respectively on his right and left hand.

When the blinding light of Supernovas faded, Balkor unleashed his tier three Chaos spell, Chaos Eater, the moment he recognized Night amid the steam. He was using normal vision with his right eye and Life Vision with his left.

One had been blinded by the mana while the other by the light so he could trust neither. Life Vision spotted Night’s darkness magic, but it was eyesight that allowed Balkor to distinguish the friend from the foe.

Manohar stood too close to Night for Life Vision spotting him. His clothes were tattered and he was bleeding from his eyes, ears, nostrils, and mouth due to the aftereffects of his own spell.

’How the heck is he still alive?’ Balkor was flabbergasted. A mage couldn’t be hurt by their own mana, but the shockwaves were supposed to have ripped Manohar apart and the steaming air to be so hot that it would burn his lungs.

The god of healing was kneeling on the ground with his eyes veiled, but Balkor could see his chest moving rhythmically.

To make matters even more unbelievable, Night was faring much worse than the Never Magus. Her black armor had turned white-hot from the heat and emitted the characteristic smell of barbecue.
