Warriors? As in Yun warriors of this world?!\" Brook shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey nodded in response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone gasped in shock, eyes widening in undisguised horror as murmurs spread through the chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not only that,\" Grey continued, drawing every ounce of focus back toward himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just found out that they are deeply rooted in this world. They have two higher-ups positioned in places of authority.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judy trembled violently, her teeth quivering as fear overtook her composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wh… where are they? Wh… who exactly are they?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey did not answer immediately, causing the tension in the air to thicken until it felt suffocating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The first high-ranking member of the Otherworlders organization is the current principal of Aetherian Academy. He also acts as the public figurehead of the entire faction.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment those words left his lips, it felt as though a bomb detonated inside the room. Every heartbeat skipped in unison as silence crashed down upon them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stared at Grey, disbelief etched across every face, waiting for him to retract the statement or admit it was a cruel joke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yo… you are serious?\" Lilly asked, her voice slipping into an uneasy stutter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Orion Stormvale is one of the Otherworlders?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey nodded calmly, confirming the truth without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alba swallowed hard, her throat suddenly dry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And the second one?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey exhaled slowly, shaking his head with visible irritation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Unfortunately, I still do not know that individual's identity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So what now?\" Dame asked, his expression grim. \"If the Otherworlders are already entrenched here, what happens to your coup?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey locked his gaze onto Dame, determination blazing unmistakably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It still stands. My companions are trapped inside the academy as we speak. They have no idea an enemy lurks among them. I must strike during the tournament. That is my chance to eliminate Orion and extract my people safely.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alba shifted uneasily, doubt visible in her posture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But Orion is a Stage Nine warrior. He is dangerously close to Stage Ten and ascension into godhood.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey smirked faintly, confidence seeping through his aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And I am equally close to reaching that threshold. It is nothing more than a contest of timing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone blinked in confusion, but Grey waved off their questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have something to ask,\" Killian said brightly as he stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell me, did you manage to defeat the one who left you in that state?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey's grin stretched wide, bordering on manic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"His corpse should be nothing but dust by now. Hahahaha!\" The mage erupted into booming laughter, clutching his abdomen as the sound echoed off the walls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dame closed his eyes briefly, then allowed a slow smile to surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And you evolved into a Stage Four warrior. That growth was absurdly fast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alba pressed her palm against her face in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did I miss something so obvious?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, right.\" Grey snapped his fingers, shifting his attention toward Killian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need your assistance. Now that I have reached Stage Four, I want to master the second stage of Ki.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh, sure. I can guide you through it,\" Killian replied. \"When do you want to begin?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe two days from now?\" Grey answered. \"I have matters to settle today and tomorrow. We start the day after.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Killian nodded, offering a relaxed smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey then turned toward Dame, who was studying him intensely. The older warrior opened his mouth as if to speak, hesitated, then shut it again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know that I do not swing that way, right? And I do not bite either.\" Grey spoke, causing Dame to freeze mid-thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint red tinge crept onto Dame's cheeks as he nervously rubbed the back of his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, it is not that. It is just that you are ridiculously good-looking. I am sure my sister would like you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?!\" Everyone in the room muttered in unison while turning to stare at Dame with disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your sister?\" Grey asked, one brow lifting. \"You have one, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dame nodded with a gentle smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She is the only person who has ever treated me kindly within my family. Probably because I am just a year older than her, so she has always been warm and close to me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, whenever my elder brothers or father are present, she acts cold toward me just to appease them. Once they leave, she becomes herself again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, his grin widened, fond memories clearly surfacing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I never knew you had a sister. I thought Borfan only produced males.\" Alba commented while eyeing the warrior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dame shrugged casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She is not well known outside the clan. Currently, she is on a mission infiltrating the Umbrafell faction, hiding among their ranks to gather intelligence. Hopefully, she does not get exposed anytime soon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That is admirable,\" Grey interrupted calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But unfortunately, I am not interested in romance at this stage. Relationships distract individuals who understand their goals and priorities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, I would not feel the same toward her, so please do not attempt any matchmaking.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His warning came with a frown as he stared blankly ahead, an image flashing through his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Probably because I miss my prickly queen. Wait. My? Argh, Grey, focus.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alba smirked mischievously as she stepped closer to the Supreme Magus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So close that Grey snapped out of his thoughts, his gaze shifting from her face to her chest before he corrected himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even me? Would I distract you too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several people facepalmed simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alba! He is practically a kid. What are you doing?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alba whipped her head around, shooting sharp glares.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Age is merely a number. Besides, he should be eighteen by now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'That is true. With my memories restored, my birthday passed three months ago. I wonder if I will ever celebrate again like I did at sixteen.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, that's enough.\" Grey stepped back quickly as an ashen portal yawned open behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will return later. I have a task to complete.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he vanished into the gateway, which snapped shut instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See? You scared the poor boy off.\" Ash sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk. Not my fault that I crave love.\" Alba scoffed while stomping away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brook's mouth fell open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From a kid?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>__\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>{A\u002FN}\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hey Magus Legion. I am here again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I wanted to ask, are you all satisfied with Grey's fifth affinity? Does it feel worthy or lacking?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is it acceptable as an ability befitting the Supreme Magus? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I will be reading. Thank you 😊\u003C\u002Fp>",1072,"2026-06-05T15:21:40.823Z",1,"novelbin.me","00811d5965eaab973349b5d0d93f4a3a1e1f6e9805573a69072f56e9157f024e","magus-supremacy-chapter-700","magus-supremacy-chapter-698",1068,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmagus-supremacy-cover.jpg"]
