Supreme Magus

Chapter 676 - Conflicting Desires (Part 2)

> ”That ’s sick! What mage could possibly do such a thing? ” Phloria was hating her mission more with each discovery they made.

She had the impression of looking at the twisted reflection of what the Griffon Kingdom might have become if the Mad King hadn ’t been stopped.

”A dying mage, for example. ” Yondra replied. ”Once you ’re old, you ’ve got nothing to lose. Or simply a mage without any other choice. If you think about it from a ruler ’s perspective, you ’re turning a mage into an eternally loyal and unfaltering guardian. ”

’Forgemastering my own flesh is something I have never thought about. ’ Lith was shocked. ’Maybe that ’s my solution. ’

’Or not. ’ Solus said emitting a retching sound. ’We have no idea what the aftereffects of the procedure would be and you have only one shot at it. I believe that altering your life force might also alter your mind to the point you ’d become another person. ’

Lith ’s mind stopped in its tracks. After arriving on Mogar, undeath seemed the perfect solution to his problems, based on Dungeons & Looting rulebook at least. Reality had begged to differ enough that Lith had been forced to discard the possibility of turning himself even into a Lich.

’Okay, sorry. We ’ll think about it when we have more data. ’ He replied, making her sigh in relief.

”After contacting Headquarters, our first priority is to find anything we can about Forgemastering life force and its opposite process: sacrificing lives to give inanimate matter a mana flow. Everything else is of secondary importance. ” Gaakhu continued.

”Aside from guard duty, all other activities are suspended. ” Phloria said once the Professors finished their debriefing. ”Rest and recover because tomorrow we ’ll split into groups again and resume our search. Professor Neshal, what ’s our arrays ’ status? ”

”Better than ever. I brought them to such a level that they are almost as good as permanent arrays. ”

”Perfect! Can I come with you then? ” Quylla asked.

”Absolutely not! Three days of training are just like three days of a diet, barely a start. ” Phloria replied. ”As you are now, you would just be a liability. ”

”That ’s not true! I can Warp you all to safety, without the need for Lith to remain behind. Are you really willing to use him as a scapegoat every time something goes wrong? ” Quylla ’s words stung at Phloria.

’Dammit, from her point of view what I did was heartless. Quylla has no idea of what Lith can do and to be honest, neither do I. ’ Phloria thought.

”No, I ’m not, but that doesn ’t change the fact that you can ’t come with us. Retreat is our last resort, which means that during the fight someone should protect you. Or do you think you are capable of defending yourself? ” She actually said.

”Fine! ” Quylla stomped her feet and walked away before saying something that she was sure she would have regretted the moment after such cruel words escaped from her mouth.

Rainer followed her, trying to calm her down. The youth was charmed by both her ingenuity and strong character. At the same time, however, he was scared by her reckless attitude.

”What ’s wrong with you? Your sister is only trying to protect you, to protect us Assistants. We are not trained for actual combat, so the least we can do is not drag them down. ” He said.
