You finally decided to show up, huh, Supreme Magus? Did you miss me?!\" Alba shouted with pure, unadulterated, and shameless glee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fleeting frown appeared on the Supreme Magus’ face, but it vanished a heartbeat later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alba, why are you so incredibly shameless?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alba’s expression fell immediately, a deep pout creasing her features.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, what do you mean by that?

I’m really exhausted. Why can’t you all just give me space to kill the Otherworlders in peace? Why should I have to deal with all this crap?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sinister aura suddenly saturated the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rule one of being a warrior: never turn your back to an enemy!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey’s ears perked up immediately as Devan closed the distance between them in a blink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His spear was already in motion, whistling through the atmosphere with lethal intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The velocity he was moving at was simply too high for most to even contemplate dodging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But not for Grey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All he did was tilt his head around to look at Devan with a prominent frown on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The earth burst open immediately as a giant pillar of stone hurtled toward Devan, forcing the leader to abandon his attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaped away just in time as the pillar crashed into his previous position, transforming the ground into a wide, jagged crater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have tasted Orion’s strength as a Stage Nine warrior, and I’ve tasted Borfan’s strength. So, show me what you can do!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a fluid spin, Grey dashed forward with such a clamorous bang that the ground where he had been standing a moment ago caved in completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With lightning speed, he was already before Devan, his wind sword flashing forward like a streak of pure destruction.\u003C\u002Fp>",1195,"2026-06-05T15:21:43.521Z",1,"novelbin.me","3c4e22fefe3d89913012f115b4ac3ca4a328e9d26f2fa46e9173b3aed47854b9","magus-supremacy-chapter-992","magus-supremacy-chapter-990",1068,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmagus-supremacy-cover.jpg"]
