Supreme Magus novel Chapter 3822

Chapter 3822: Emerald Thread (Part 1)

"If you come with me, Verhen, I’ll help you tap into your true potential, and Mogar will be a better place for it." The Guardian of Mana extended one of his hands to Lith, ready to Warp them both to his secret lab. "We must be quick, though."

"The longer we wait, the fewer traces of your transformation will remain."

Roghar had yet to finish talking when Lith’s third set of wings flickered out. The energy that comprised them shattered into fragments of light and merged with the feathered wings below.

"Over my dead body!" Much to everyone’s surprise, the voices belonged to Raagu and Gyrwin, the Human Representatives from Garlen and Jiera.

The two women put themselves between the Guardian and Lith.

"Everyone here knows of your experiments, and we’ve seen how they end. Verhen is the first perfect evolved human, your words. We’d rather wait for him to safely discover his powers than let you take so much as a closer look at him."

"Seconded!" Ryla wiped her tears and shielded Lith with her body, her eyes brimming with the power of the elements in preparation for a new fight. "Verhen is my savior and my son’s best shot at a normal life. I won’t let you touch him."

"Me neither!" Morok walked to her side, and soon the entire Fomor and Balor race stood in front of them.

The non-evolved humans, Awakened and not, in turn shielded the people of Zelex, conjuring their best spells and reassuming their battle formations.

"We may not have anything to gain from this, but we know first-hand what happens when you mess with a race’s evolutionary path." Traughen, trolls, orcs, ogres, goblins, Warg, and Hatis stepped forward as well.

"We won’t let you ruin the future of our comrades like you ruined ours."

Roghar had the appearance of a humanoid wolf covered in crystalline fur that reflected light and world energy alike into the prismatic light of the seven elements. His snout was that of a canid and lacked the facial muscles to express complex emotions.

Yet when he burst into laughter, his spite, hilarity, and condescension at the allied forces sounded as clear as day.

"First off, let me?" He asked while wiping fat tears of hilarity from his eyes. "I don’t need your permission to do anything. Whether you let me or not, if I wanted to take Verhen by force, killing you all would take me but a second.

"That said, it’s rich hearing the descendants of the Odi blaming me for their fate." He pointed his clawed finger at the trolls and Traughen. "I didn’t give your ancestor any advice.

"I told them that trolls were the perfect first evolutionary step for their race and that it was just a matter of time before the trolls overcame their limits. I told the Odi to keep up with the good work. As for everyone else, I did nothing.

"I suggested and advised possible alterations to your life forces, but also caution. It’s not my fault if your ancestors disregarded my warnings and paid attention only to the parts about increasing their powers."

"He’s right." A cold, silvery voice said, drawing everyone’s attention. "Roghar advised the Odi to stop their experiments and give trolls a chance. It was the Odi’s choice to keep pushing forward.

"What you can blame him for is not condemning the Odi for their inhumane experiments. For letting them go home with a pat on the back instead of a stern lesson. I want you all to know that the Odi were Roghar’s favorite race." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Baba Yaga was in her Mother form, yet her emerald eyes showed none of the warmth she usually exuded.
