Magus Supremacy - Chapter 108

Chapter 108: Assessment {4} Chapter 108: Assessment {4} Chapter 108 After they picked a general direction, they quickly began heading there with Arthur slightly behind as the words Scarlet said to him stung slightly as it kept replaying in his head over and over again.

“So you are just a useless support!” The words kept ringing in his head when Grey noticed and he slowed down until he was walking side by side with Arthur.

“Usually I don’t like doing this because I’m not the mentor type but I have to.

If you keep looking down like this, then you won’t be able to prove your worth to that arrogant bitch.

You heard her, she is a noble and so I bet she hasn’t faced the real world yet or experienced a real battle before.” Grey said as Arthur lifted his head to listen to him.

“So she doesn’t know that your magic is very essential and would prove very useful to us.

So quit looking like a sad cat and show her the beasty part of yourself by proving that your protection magic is useful.” Hearing this, Arthur’s face lit up as he opened his mouth to thank Grey when they heard rustling of bushes with Scarlet halting abruptly and so did the teams.

And then all around them, about five bunny looking beasts appeared.

They all were as tall as a small dog with long pointy ears on their head and a white fur all over their bodies.

“This will be quick work.” Scarlet said as her hands all blazed with fire and she was about to unleash them when the bunnies all at once began hopping and running away from the humans.

“What the hell?!” “It’s obvious, after all the term hop was in their name.” Raze chuckled.

“Catch those bunnies!” Scarlet shouted and they began chasing the bunnies all through the forest trying to catch them.

They had been running all around that they almost lost track of where they were with their focus solely on the bunnies hopping away.

“This is pointless.” Grey said as he halted his steps and so did the others.

“You have the wind affinity, so why the hell are you slowing us down?!” Scarlet shouted in anger.

“Will you just shut your running trap up and listen?!” Grey retorted back angrily.

Scarlet was about to reply him when Vince placed his hands on her shoulder stopping her.

“What is it?

What do you want to say?” Vince asked.

“I don’t want to say anything, but I need absolute silence.” Grey replied and Scarlet was about to say something when she saw Grey suddenly closed his eyes and pointed his fingers out signalling them they should be silent.

He stayed in that same pose for a few seconds before he snapped his eyes back and then whispered.

“Stay back and nobody, absolutely nobody should move from their spots.” “Who are you to…” Scarlet was about to say when she saw wind magic surrounding Grey all around which made her shut her mouth as she saw the serious look on his face.

And then, in a silent flash, he was seen speeding towards a general direction and it didn’t take less than a minute, they saw him coming back and floating behind him, were six dead hop bunnies as he dropped them down while he landed smoothly.

“Here you go!

Six down, nine more to go.” He said as he could see his teammates mouths wide agape as they looked between Grey and the dead bunnies on the floor.

“How did you?” Scarlet was about to say.

“How did I kill the beasts?

I used my brains and not my brawns unlike you.

It isn’t surprising though, after all, I’m not sure if you even have a brain.” Grey replied with a smile as he walked away and he saw Scarlet fuming.

“How did he do these so fast?!” Vince wondered as he looked at the beasts on the ground.

“We need to extract their cores.” Raze said as metal appeared in his hand and he shaped it into a sword and he walked forward and got to work extracting the crystals.

“How do you know how to use my magic better than me?” Vince asked and Raze just shrugged as he got the six cores in his hand when a loud voice was heard coming from all around.

“Six minutes remaining!” They all recognized the voice as it belonged to Amir.

“Well six down, nine more to go!

How do we get the remaining nine?” Arthur asked and they all turned to Grey.

“Mind pulling off the miracle of killing the beasts so fast again?” Raze asked trying to do puppy eyes.

“I have done my part, the rest is up to you guys.

Besides, this was supposed to be a teamwork and not only me doing the work.” Grey replied.

“Tch!

Wasn’t expecting a peasant like you to help anyway.” Scarlet scoffed.

“Let’s go guys!” They were about to step forward with Grey having his hands in his pants’ pockets when they heard rustling of bushes and they all took a stance expecting a hop bunny to pop out but instead, five humans were seen coming out.

“Wow wow wow!

When we saw that peasant flying here with hop bunnies, we were sure he stole it from some team.

And we didn’t want to go through the hassle of extracting the crystals, so we let you do that for us and then we can take them back.” A boy with silver hair said as the rest laughed behind them.

“That’s… that’s Nozel Silva!” Vince said.

“Nozel who?” Grey asked nonchalantly.

“He’s… he is one of the direct descendants of one of the emperor’s subordinate.” Scarlet replied.

“The emperor got subordinates?” Grey asked genuinely surprised.

“How on Earth did I expect a peasant like you to know all these?!” Scarlet asked as she slapped her forehead loudly.

“Just consider the emperor’s subordinates’ as something like the vice principal of the magical academies.

Actually, they are the principal’s of the academies so Nozel here is one of the academies’ principal son.” Vince said.

“Oh!” Grey just said.

“That’s right and I want to know why two nobles here are working with peasants?” Nozel asked.

“It’s our lives, we do as we wish Nozel.” Vince replied.

“Shut up you worthless young boy!

Don’t make me blurt out your truth here so just keep your trap shut.” Nozel said annoyed.

“Hey!

You can’t bully Vince at all.

You have no right whatsoever!” Scarlet said with her brows furrowed.

“Oh?!

And what are you going to do about it?” Nozel laughed when he turned towards Arthur who held the crystals.

“For being rude to a royal figure like me, I hereby order that you release all your crystals to me.” “Or what?” Grey asked as he stepped forward with his hands still in his pockets.

“Or you will be responsible for whatever happens to you, you peasant.” Nozel replied as he also stepped forward with his hands in his pockets and stood directly in front of Grey.

“How many crystals did you acquire?” Grey asked as he took a step back.

“We have nine crystals and when we take yours, we finally pass this assessment.” Someone from Nozel group replied.

“How convenient.” Grey smiled and then it turned into a chuckle.

“I guess I will be taking the crystals for myself then.” “How arrogant of you?!” Nozel shouted as mana began seeping out of him creating a killing intent towards Grey but to his surprise, Grey wasn’t scared instead, a dangerous glint appeared in his eyes as he unleashed his own mana creating a more stronger intent.

“You shouldn’t dare threaten me or else this quiet mage will end up biting your head off.” Grey said and everybody gulped loudly including his teammates.

‘What has this peasant gone and done?

Doesn’t he know?

Royals and nobles all have tremendous amount of mana compared to peasants.

He will be quickly swallowed up even if he has more affinities than them.’ Scarlet thought.

“Just know that you asked for this.” Nozel said as he stepped back and then snapped his fingers towards one of his teammates.

“I won’t get my hand dirty, Liam, sort this mess out and bring me those crystals.” “Roger that!” A black haired individual walked out and mist began coming out of his hands.

“You all should step back or else you would get hurt.” Grey calmly said as he removed his hands from his pockets while the others stepped back except one.

“I don’t take orders from you!” Scarlet shouted when a huge gust of wind erupted out blowing the trees and even uprooting some of them while Scarlet was pushed back that she almost went flying.
