Supreme Magus novel Chapter 4273

Chapter 4273: Turning Red (Part 1)

The scales covering Solus’ abdomen gave it the pleasant look of washboard abs.

"On second thought, this is nice." Everyone could tell from the tone of her voice that she was grinning under her face mask. "I’m sorry, kids, it seems that the time for your jokes is over! I’m-"

Solus took a second look, and her eyes went wide in horror.

"Wait a minute. I haven’t been able to see my belly without a mirror ever since I hit puberty. What happened to my breasts? Where are my beloved twins?" She patted her chest, finding it hard and metallic like the rest of her body.

Only two small bumps remained where once her shapely bosom stood in defiance of gravity.

"Twins?" Aran tilted his head in confusion. "Was Auntie Solus pregnant all along? When did she give birth?"

"Will I end as flat and Auntie Phloria as well if I awaken my bloodline, Uncle Lith?" Leria looked at the figures of the women of the family, and suddenly, becoming a Demon didn’t sound so good anymore.

"First, I’m offended." Tista grunted. "You should ask my advice, young lady, not Lith’s. Second, no, you won’t. Solus’ body is unchanged. When you shapeshift, part of your chest gets compressed not to offer an easy target."

"Don’t worry, Solus." Friya said. "Tista and I went through the same thing, and I can assure you that everything is where it’s supposed to be. It’s just covered, as your face mask does with your teeth."

"Thank the gods." Solus sighed in relief. "Wait a second. Face mask? I never had that before."

She touched her face and sniffed her own breath, smelling the familiar scent of sulfur.

"You are right. I’m like Lith now, which means that maybe I’ve also gained Origin Flames. Being able to purify your materials on your own is the dream of every Forgemaster!"

Solus had fused more than once with Lith, both in mind and body. Controlling the scales of a face mask and conjuring Origin Flames were second nature to her, and she acted out of reflex.

"Solus, no!" Tista and Friya recognized the familiar clicking of sliding scales and jumped forward.

Tista even unfurled her wings, but alas, she was too far and too late. She barely managed to cover her friend’s nether regions with her longest pinions before Solus managed to remove the scales covering her maw, chest, and privates.

"Guys, look! I do have Origin Flames, and they are already violet!" Solus breathed a controlled burst of mystical fire as her breasts emerged from their armored shell, revealing that the transformation had diminished none of their glory.

As the Origin Flames faded and she realized her mistake, she even had the time to notice that her red skin underneath the scales closely resembled that of an Indech.

"Look away! Look away!" Solus wrapped her wings around herself, literally bursting into flames from the embarrassment.

"What’s her problem?" Aran shrugged.

"Yeah, that’s nothing much." Teryon replied. "My mom’s breasts are bigger. Isn’t that right, Mom?"

"Yes, but that’s not something you should say in public, dear." Rena blushed hard. "Even in front of our family."

"That was interesting." Morok pondered.

"Morok!" Quylla snarled, afraid of a rude comment.

"Hey, I just noticed her red skin and was wondering if it’s connected to her potential Indech side." The Tyrant snarled back. "I’m not staring at Solus wide-eyed like Nalrond."

Everyone quickly turned to the Agni, who was even quicker in regaining his cool and feigning innocence.
