Chapter 243: Take over: Gromp
"Summon—Brambleback!"
With a surge of fiery energy, another blazing beast emerged. Now with two Bramblebacks, Rhodes had them both lunge at the ice-covered monster conjured by Rustyrose's imagination.
Despite the powerful support of his Blue buff, maintaining two Bramblebacks and a Blue Sentinel at once was pushing Rhode's mana reserves dangerously low. His expression tightened. The burn rate was unsustainable.
The good news? The ice monster seemed particularly vulnerable to fire. Between the Bramblebacks' relentless strikes, it wouldn't last much longer.
But that raised a far more troubling question.
How many more can this guy summon?
Rhodes couldn't afford to let this drag out forever. He narrowed his eyes, trying to decipher Rustyrose's magic. "Hey... are you using Molding Magic?"
The more Rhodes observed him, the more he noticed a faint resemblance to Gray's and Laki's styles. They shaped magic into objects, Gray using ice, Laki using wood.
'Could this guy be using something similar?'
Rustyrose gave a soft, haughty laugh. "Molding Magic? How unimaginative of you." He tossed his silver hair over his shoulder with a dramatic flair.
"My magic is nothing so mundane. It is a Lost Magic, closer to the source of all magic itself. I wield the Arc of Embodiment."
