Supreme Magus

lone would turn even a farmer into a powerful warrior.
Truth to be told, they were just Aylen failed creations and prototypes.

Just like Lith, she hated to throw away stuff, but unlike him, she couldn ’t ask Salaark to recycle the materials for her nor afford to buy enough Origin Flames to cleanse all of her past failures from their magical imprint.

A single swing of the undead ’s weapons dispelled the fire weaves, protecting their master ’s home from harm.
Then, they raised their hands, unleashing a barrage of tier five spells that took the Phoenixes by surprise and wounded them deeply.

The feline Emperor Beast didn ’t miss the opening.
Half of them went to rescue their captured friends while the other half pressed their advantage and went for the finishing blow.

The Phoenixes had been caught with their guard down and the skeletons had each demonstrated a magical power that belonged to someone with a bright violet core.
In an instant, the enemy army had doubled its numbers and turned the tide of the battle.

’This doesn ’t make sense. ’ The Phoenixes thought in unison while fighting for their lives.
’How can a mere skeleton be that powerful? ’

’Those things are not skeletons at all! ’ Lith thought, forcing Solus to study the new enemies with the Eyes of Menadion.
’Those things are the watered down version of what I want to do with the corpses of Trouble and of the Vagrash.

’They are magic crystal-controlled golems! ’ He pointed at their eye sockets, where two gemstones of different colors had been etched.

’By my Mom, you are right! ’ Solus ignored Xenagrosh and focused her full attention on the new task at hand.

She noticed that no skeleton had emerald green eyes.
The gemstones had been imbued with the power of one of the six elements, allowing each golem to control two elements at the same time.

The gemstones had been programmed to be capable of working either independently to cast two tier three spells at the same time or in synch with the other crystal to cast any high tiered spells that employed the elements stored in their eyes.

’They are weaker than what our creations are supposed to be, but they are a huge step in the right direction. ’ Solus said after observing that not only were the skeletons physically weaker than an Emperor Beast, but also that their energy reserves were dropping quickly.

Only their magical prowess was similar to that Lith wanted to bestow upon his creations.
Even then, the limit of two elements made Aylen ’s golems one trick ponies that relied on their equipment and on the element of surprise to be effective.

’I think it depends on the fact that while we aim to make golems that can serve as our generals and lead my Demons into battle, Aylen needed mere foot soldiers.
Her generals are the Emperor Beast while the golems are just expendable pawns. ’ Lith pondered.

’Well, it makes sense. ’ Solus pondered.
’Those creatures are all highly intelligent Awakened that she has trained and each one of them is already as powerful as one of our golems is supposed to be.

’The only difference is that they have free will and can ’t share Aylen ’s bloodline abilities.
My guess is that the golems are a low effort product of Aylen ’s research.
Prototypes that she realized as the first step toward something bigger. ’

’Prototypes or not, they are exactly what we were looking for.
Lesser undead that thanks to the power of the crystals have been granted a fine degree of intelligence, powers on par with greater undead, but no free will.. ’ Lith replied.
