He was not the vice leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man standing in front of Grey was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why? Why would he want to do this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shocked, right?\" The mysterious man let out a painful chuckle before straightening his posture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When you declared your intent the first time, I was equally taken aback. I wanted to talk you down, but before that, I needed to see something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I needed to understand why you were so confident. I wanted to see why a kid would dare to think of doing something like that and how he intended to go about it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused briefly before continuing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have seen enough. From where I stand, I can sense that you are a six-star mage with control over four affinities... and Ki. That alone is absurd.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Five,\" Grey interjected calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was correcting you. I do not have four affinities. I have five. You are lucky I did not reveal them earlier. Otherwise, you would not be standing here giving me this speech.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mysterious man froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes widened in a mix of shock, disbelief, horror, and something dangerously close to excitement as he stared at Grey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Five affinities? How is that even possible? Who exactly is this kid?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Realising he had lingered too long in his thoughts, the man exhaled and chuckled softly, regaining his composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems I misjudged you,\" he admitted. \"You are no longer just an anomaly. You are now a significant variable in the grand scale of things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hm?\" Grey lifted an eyebrow, but the man waved his hand dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah. Now is not the time for explanations,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It would be wiser if we leave this place or move elsewhere before we continue. I would very much like to know you better.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped forward with a calm, measured gait, careful not to do anything that might provoke an attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’With strength like this, he should be close to that stage. So why have they not noticed him yet? Or perhaps they have, and chose to ignore it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No... those meddling fools would never overlook an anomaly of this magnitude. Something must be keeping them occupied.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey watched the man approach cautiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was when he heard footsteps behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning slightly, he saw members of the Crimson Lotus Clan coming to stand beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alba, however, did not move an inch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She remained where she stood, eyes fixed forward, fascination clearly etched across her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You tried attacking him?\" she suddenly whispered toward Gunlag, who stood about a metre away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his sharp senses, Gunlag heard her clearly and scoffed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Figured,\" she chuckled softly while rubbing her arm. \"You should be grateful you still have your head on your shoulders.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon enough, the mysterious man stopped directly in front of Grey, staring deep into the warrior mage’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Before I fully commit to this,\" the man said calmly, \"there is one thing I need to know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shoot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I sensed hatred in your words earlier,\" he continued. \"But I need to know if it runs deep enough for our cause. Tell me... what did the Otherworlders do to you? And what did Orion, in particular, take from you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey stared at the mage for several seconds, his expression unreadable, as if weighing something far heavier than words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, finally, he opened his mouth to respond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They took everything from me. I lost a lot because of them. Now, you do not need to know the details about that. As for Orion, my friends are trapped inside his academy, and I intend to free them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing those words, the mage nodded firmly, a warm and genuine smile forming on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then let us be partners,\" he said without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want to bring down the Aetherian faction. Though he was the one who created it, and though I once served as his loyal aide, I can no longer stand by and watch those monsters corrupt and ruin it. So I will help you strip it down to nothing, strange warrior mage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mysterious man stretched out his hand toward Grey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey stared at the outstretched palm for a few seconds before exhaling slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’For my cause, I need every single bit of strength I can gather. Whether I trust him or not does not change reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My enemies have an entire faction backing them. I need allies.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his decision made, Grey extended his own hand and clamped it firmly around the man’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Grey. Grey Dawn,\" he said calmly. \"Or you can call me the Supreme Magus.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stormspear. Fenrir Stormspear,\" the mysterious man replied, his smile widening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two quickly disengaged from the handshake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the warriors who had arrived earlier began turning away, preparing to leave the scene when—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>GRRRRRRRH—!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A loud, thunderous, beastly roar suddenly tore through the air with overwhelming intensity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rumble, Rumble, Rumble—!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground beneath their feet began shaking violently, as if a massive earthquake was about to split the land apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wh-what is happening?!\" someone shouted in horror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey turned sharply toward Fenrir, a deep frown forming on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This your doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fenrir shook his head immediately. \"I was about to ask you the same thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOOM—!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something massive erupted from the ground, sending huge slabs of earth flying into the air as a thick cloud of dust billowed outward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, it had not surfaced directly beneath the humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later, as the dust slowly settled, the terrifying figure standing before them came into view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uhm... this is bad,\" Alba gulped loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Towering over them was a five-metre-tall beast, an abomination that looked like a twisted fusion of a lizard, a chameleon, and a frog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its skin was covered in countless spikes, jutting out like the quills of a porcupine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Massive legs slammed against the ground, each limb lined with razor-sharp claws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its hide gleamed ominously under the light as crimson eyes scanned the gathered humans with uncontained rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s the boss-class beast of this world,\" someone muttered in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A Divine-ranked beast!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>__\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A\u002FN: Before I forget 😅 so uhm. Hi Fenrir Sama. This is my personal long term gift I have been preparing for you which I spoke about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m sorry it’s coming in late in the book; in my defence, I just had the epiphany to do it recently so yeah. This is for being my top engager.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your comment, power stones, Golden tickets and even colas have been keeping me going for the past couple of months now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You have been here since basically the beginning of the book and engaging me daily. Thank you so much for those precious comments and support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I hope you enjoy your gift in the form of a character in the book. I would love to hear your thoughts on this soon.🫠\u003C\u002Fp>",1203,"2026-06-05T15:21:41.579Z",1,"novelbin.me","2692646db2f378c24150462f97b29e5190c0bffe252db73b60ed414ffef3e10c","magus-supremacy-chapter-761","magus-supremacy-chapter-759",1068,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmagus-supremacy-cover.jpg"]
