What are you doing? Get away from me! Go away!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shrieked, writhing and squirming like a worm caught on hot stone, desperate to escape the devilish human crouched before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop moving so much. This won’t hurt...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey spoke calmly as he seized Robed man’s head, fingers locking firmly in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes slid shut as he inhaled deeply, then slowly exhaled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right on cue, Robed man released a piercing scream of agony, his eyes flying open in unimaginable torment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt as if Robed man’s blood was boiling from within, scorching his veins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crimson leaked from his mouth and seeped from the corners of his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hands trembled violently, limbs shuddering as scorching heat and biting cold surged through his core at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A visible white aura began leaking from Robed man’s body, flowing like mist into Grey’s hand and then sinking straight into the warrior mage’s form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was Grey doing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As always, he was absorbing the life force of his opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To him, this was the fastest path toward greater strength, and he would take it without hesitation or remorse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every drop of power, every fragment of vitality mattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needed to grow stronger, faster, relentlessly, so he could protect his allies, his friends, his world... his worlds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was not some foolish saint who spared those who tried to kill him. That kind of mercy was idiotic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who crossed him would suffer hell on earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even when he outmatched them, he would toy with their lives, drag out their despair, and let them taste helplessness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The same helplessness he once endured while weak, bullied, despised, shattered by two different worlds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would show no mercy.

Even if it was only a single drop, it was still gain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Robed man’s screams tore through the mountain, echoing endlessly as tears of blood and water streamed down his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body convulsed uncontrollably while Grey siphoned his life force and remaining mana simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey’s breathing stayed calm, steady, almost serene, a cruel contrast to the suffering beneath his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It feels good, doesn’t it?\" Grey finally broke the silence as Robed man continued shrieking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The universe has a strange way of choosing who deserves power. When I thought I had reached my limit, it granted me this ability, the power to steal life force.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His grip tightened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So I swore to use it only on those who seek my death.

Now that you feel pain, you beg for mercy?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze hardened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you ever think about the pain she felt?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Robed man coughed out flecks of blood, strands of white hair rapidly spreading as his skin grew paler with every passing second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only a matter of moments before Grey would be completely finished with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do...do you think you’ll go scot-free after this?\" Robed man rasped, voice cracking under fear and rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are part of the Midnight Sun Clan, and one of our rules is never to harm a member.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His breath hitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And you...you didn’t just hurt me, you’re doing this? To a captain no less. Do you think this is forgivable? They will hunt you. They will search every corner. They will make sure you are erased.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes burned with fanatic conviction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don’t know the Midnight Sun. You don’t know what you joined. If I didn’t finish you, they’ll just send someone stronger. They will kill you. You hear me? They will hunt you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey paused briefly, as if considering the words pouring out of the dying man. Then his lips curved upward once more as his grip tightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The absorption resumed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let them come,\" Grey replied calmly, his voice steady and devoid of fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll send every single one of them to hell. At this stage of my life, I’m afraid of no one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Robed man’s body suddenly went rigid, freezing in place as every last drop of mana and life force was drained away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His form shriveled rapidly, thinning until he resembled a husk. His eyes remained wide open, lifeless, hair completely bleached white.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey staggered slightly as he rose to his feet, then turned toward Frowny’s bisected corpse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief moment, he crouched beside it and began absorbing once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even from a dead body, life force could still be taken, though it was far weaker than when the victim lived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At best, he would gain a little over a quarter of the original energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was precisely why he preferred crippling powerful enemies first before draining them dry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later, the process ended, and the mountain fell silent, no longer echoing with Robed man’s hoarse voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like it’s going to rain...\" Grey muttered as he glanced upward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Channeling ki into his legs alongside wind magic, he launched himself from the mountain with explosive force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cracks spiderwebbed across the peak, linking with existing fractures and deep craters until the mountain finally lost its battle of endurance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It trembled violently, quaked, then began collapsing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Massive rocks tumbled downward like an avalanche, burying the two corpses beneath countless tons of stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey glanced back casually, a faint smile crossing his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Rain of rocks.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kaiser.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wind roared as a gigantic wind bird materialized beneath him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey landed smoothly on its back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a piercing cry, the creature shot into the sky like an arrow loosed at night, leaving nothing behind but swirling currents of wind.\u003C\u002Fp>",1065,"2026-06-05T15:21:41.119Z",1,"novelbin.me","83c3525364d0270b9af9cd1d09364f4aca285ad02dbf8074a4e292d4c43d6e81","magus-supremacy-chapter-726","magus-supremacy-chapter-724",1068,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmagus-supremacy-cover.jpg"]
