Supreme Magus - Chapter 597

Chapter 597
"Don't worry, both Zinya and I know a lot about it . " Kamila held Lith's hand, moved by his words . Usually, healers had god complex . Hearing him admitting his own limits was proof of how seriously Lith was considering the matter .





"The real problem will be convincing her to get treated and how to deal with her husband . "

"I can assure you the latter will not be an issue . " Lith had a psycho killer smile that gave Kamila the creeps and forced Solus to step in .

'You are Lith Verhen now, not Derek McCoy . You have no known reason for a personal vendetta against that kind of man . You are scaring Kamila out of her wits . ' She thought .

Lith snapped out of his bloody daydreams and noticed his girlfriend's distress . He took a deep breath and wore his best mask for the occasion .

"Sorry, I got carried away . Still, dealing with a dirtbag is easy, but if the patient doesn't want to be treated, there's nothing I can do . " He said .  

Kamila sighed in relief . He was back to be the person she knew and loved . She even felt flattered for him taking her sister's situation personally .

"I know . That's why I want you two to meet . Maybe Zinya will change her mind if she knows that her Healer doesn't think of her as just a number on his personal record . Are you free tomorrow morning?" She asked .

"For you, I'm free the whole day . "

"I wish . I'm in the middle of a bad case, I had to beg my supervisor just to get a few hours leave . Once we are done with Zinya, I have to rush back to work and we will not see each other before dinner . " Kamila's shoulders slouched .





She had long since dreamed of becoming a Royal Constable, yet between the training and the fieldwork, she was already missing her job as an army handler . The pay was average and the work repetitive, but at least it usually left her quite a bit of free time .

"Then go to bed, you need some rest . I'll join you as soon as I'm done with the kitchen and a long, cold shower . " Lith said while plates and cutlery floated in mid air to be cleaned by a mix of soap, water, and darkness magic .

"Thank you very much . You have no idea how much freeing my sister from that monster's clutches means to me . " She said while hugging him tightly from behind .

'I know it all too well . ' Lith could feel his rage trying to manifest outside his mind, but he kept it at bay and said:

"There's no jury in the world that would convict me if I pounced on you now . It would be a clear case of self defence . "

"Pervert . " Kamila chuckled as she gave him a good night kiss before disappearing in the bedroom . She really did feel very tired, but the worst thing was that things had already changed .

'Whatever I do, I'm afraid that Lith might think that I'm bribing him with sex or sweet talk . Gods, I'm so happy he agreed to help us, yet I'm so scared about how things will turn out . ' Kamila's stomach was churning out of stress .


Meanwhile, Lith took a very cold shower to calm his nerves . The idea of facing a man who resembled his first father made his blood turn into magma .





'You did well not suggesting her to kill this Fallmug guy . I think it would have scared her to death . Remember that a lot of people have a problem with your switch personality . ' Solus thought before asking:

'Why are you taking so long with the shower?'

'To give Kamila the time to think and me an excuse to think she is already asleep . This is not how I pictured my first date with her after my return . This is damn awkward . ' Lith thought .

Lith was regretting both his earlier attempt at seducing her and his stupid sex jokes, but back then he had no idea Zinya's situation was that bad . He thought it was just an unhappy marriage .

'Tomorrow I'll need your help to not level the neighborhood . '

'Don't worry, we'll deal with this problem like we always do . Together . ' Solus thought .

The following day, city of Xylita

Lith and Kamila reached the Sarta Household in a matter of minutes after walking through the city Warp Gate . His flight spell brought them quickly to their destination . Xylita wasn't located in the Kellar region nor the Distar Marquisate, so Lith had no authority as a Ranger nor as a Baron there . It was the reason he was wearing the deep green robe that identified him as a Great Mage .





Power was something that even the most stupid people respected .

"You have no idea how much I'd like you to go full Othre on them, but I can't afford to play hero . Whatever we do, it will be Zinya to pay the consequences . " Kamila said after looking at Lith's stern face .

He was wearing the same expression he had while fighting Thrud's meat puppets and even though it was addressed against her, his bloodlust was almost tangible .

"Don't worry . I came here to visit a patient and kick ass . And I'm all out of patients . " Lith replied making her laugh .

Kamila stepped forward and knocked on the door . It was her problem, so it was up to her to face it .

Vylna, the housemaid and current mistress of the master of the house, was surprised seeing Kamila come back so soon . Her expression turned into a smug grin as she prepared to repeat to Kamila her master's words .

Then, she went pale and chocked on her rehearsed speech, leaving Kamila flabbergasted .

"I'm back to see Lady Sarta . " Kamila said while wondering why the housemaid stood there with both her eyes and mouth wide open .

She had no way to know that a huge mass of spirit magic was slithering around the housemaid, making it hard for her even to breathe . The pure and unbridled killing intent it was imbued with made the experience utterly terrifying .

Lith's eyes returned to normal when Kamila turned around to check on him .

During that short moment of respite, Vylna's survival instinct took the wheel .

"Please, come in . Lady Sarta is in the tea room, like always . " She handed to Kamila her master key .

"Thanks . You don't need to accompany us . I know the way . " Kamila walked double time, eager to check on her sister . Yet Lith remained behind, never averting his eyes from the maid's even when the door suddenly closed behind him by itself .

"I usually don't prey on the weak . It's cruel and pointless since you have nothing I want . Yet if you stand in my path, if you do anything to harm those close to me, I will end you . " Lith raised his hand slowly as if he was about to grab her throat .

Vylna was paralyzed by fear, almost suffocating due to the mana that pressed on her from every side .

"Feel free to eavesdrop or call your master . Becoming a Great Mage means receiving a Royal Pardon . All I need is a good reason to use mine . " Those words sent a hot liquid trickling along Vylna's legs .

It wet her shoes before forming a stain on the carpet .
