Supreme Magus novel Chapter 4116

Chapter 4116: Something Missing (Part 1)

’I know that something as big as a mage tower is hard to miss, but isn’t facing it like this too dangerous?’ Crank conjured his Mana Body bloodline ability and the Mage Knight spell, Full Guard, to have at least awareness of his surroundings.

’I can hit this thing all day, but if it attacks me back, I won’t notice until it’s too late!’ Call of the Void blinded everybody but Lith, Solus, and the Demons.

The Hyperion felt the blackness brush across his thick fur like a living thing and did his best to ignore the pressure that the unnatural darkness exerted on his sensory organs.

Crank joined his fists, slamming them against the side of the Black Throne along with the tier five Spirit Spell, Phoenix smash, releasing a blast of emerald flames that burned at both the cursed tower and his arrays.

’Same here.’ Phillard hacked and slashed at the white marble with his axes in what he considered his version of Blade Magic.

Each blow was accompanied by a spell released by the enchantments of his weapons, combining his physical and magical might into something greater than the sum of the single parts.

’I feel as helpless as a fish in a barrel, and I don’t trust our bodyguards much.’ The members of the team were accompanied by a one-eyed Demon of the Darkness who stood right beside them or, in Crank’s, Tista’s, and Protector’s case, on them. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

’They are not our bodyguards.’ Friya put down Thundercrash as she shapeshifted into her hybrid Hydra form. ’They are your eyes.’

The Demon next to her connected Friya to the Demons that surrounded the Black Throne and allowed her to see through their eyes. In turn, Friya used the mind link connecting her friends with the nearby Demons to give them the next best thing to sight.

The angle was a bit off, and the field of view didn’t change when the members of the group turned their heads around, but it was better than nothing.

’I have yet to master a single extra head, and now I need five of them.’ Friya inwardly cursed. ’Lith gave me the time to sync each head to a different Demon, but it’s still so damn hard! It requires my full focus and to keep all my eyes closed.

’To let the others see, I’m going to be as helpless as our enemies until Lith dispels the Call of the Void.’

’Don’t worry about that.’ Friya had kept those thoughts to herself, but Lith just needed to look at her expression via her guardian Demon to know how she felt. ’The Demon I assigned to you has six eyes and plenty of Vital Storm.

’You’ll be fine. Besides, I’m going to send a thank you committee to the mage tower to return its warm welcome.’

Lith conjured a few one-eyed Demons around himself and swapped places with them multiple times to hide his real position. Just like Solus, they shared his same energy signature. Under a Life Sensing array, there was no way to distinguish Lith from his Demons.

At the same time, Lith used his breathing technique, Abyssal Grasp, to heal from his wounds and replenish his mana.

New Demons came to life all over the Black Throne’s floors, hungry for vengeance. Jorl and the Upyrs carried a few angry souls with them, but the cursed tower was much older and crueler than his newfound allies.

The Black Throne had killed so many people and subjected so many victims to his experiments over the millennia that a small army of vengeful souls always followed the cursed tower.

’If that thing has even one-hundredth of Solus’ power, giving the Demons half an eye or six eyes makes no difference.’ Lith thought. ’Their ability to feed upon the enemy’s strength makes them nigh-indestructible anyway.

’My scouts stand above a weird mana geyser and inside a mage tower. They have everything they need to reach six eyes on their own.’

’Don’t worry about me, Friya. I can manage on my own. Just be ready to assist me in case something goes wrong.’ For once, the Skoll wasn’t in his humanoid form, but in his true Emperor Beast body.
