Magus Supremacy
Chapter 305 - 305: Good Job Guys!

Grey had just left the coliseum, walking with his usual iconic swagger—hands tucked casually in his pockets, head slightly bowed as a storm of thoughts raged through his mind.

He had parted ways with Max a few moments earlier. Max had decided to explore the town a bit longer, giving Grey an address to pass on to Charlotte whenever he came across her.

'Shit! What the hell is Amir thinking? Why pair Vince against Dave?' Grey's thoughts churned with unease. 'He knows there's bad blood between them. This isn't just careless—it's dangerous.'

"Is it only Vince you're worried about? What about Raze? Scarlet? Greg?" Noir's voice suddenly echoed in his head, cutting through the tension.

"They can handle themselves," Grey muttered aloud, not breaking stride. "Raze can copy magic. If his opponent's affinity is too weak, that fool can just switch and duel on equal ground.

Scarlet? We just saw how fierce she is. And Greg... he's shaping into a monster. But Vince? That kid is walking into a slaughterhouse."

The clinic now loomed just a few feet ahead, its quiet atmosphere a stark contrast to the chaos in Grey's mind.

"You're not wrong," Noir replied, his tone more measured than usual. "Especially considering what Dave tried to pull today. Scarlet would've been killed if both crystals hadn't been destroyed in time."

Grey suddenly stopped in his tracks. "Wait a minute. Why the hell are you being nice to me? You barely talk unless it's to mock me."

"Tch! I'm just bored of being cooped up in here!" Noir snapped. "I can't even show myself. Amir's orders—'stay hidden.' Like I'm some kind of criminal."

Grey chuckled. "I almost feel bad for you. Almost."

He twisted the doorknob and stepped into the clinic, only to be greeted by a burst of heated voices.

"Damn it! What's the noise about?" he said, raising a brow as the door slid open.

"Grey?!" Raze's voice rang out in surprise.

At the sound of Grey's name, Greg—who had been unconscious—snapped his eyes open. Jay stirred as well, both of them groaning softly as they slowly sat upright.

"What's with the shouting? Can't someone get a little peace and quiet around here?" Greg grumbled, rubbing his forehead.

"I can put you back to sleep—permanently. Interested?" Grey quipped, smirking as he sauntered over to a nearby chair.

"What, you here to mock us? Tell us how you would have done better today? 'Cause if that's the plan, I swear I will drown you," Jay warned, wincing with every word.

"On the contrary," Grey said coolly. "I'm here to praise you."

The room went still.

"Y-you... want to praise us?" Raze stammered.

"What? Haven't I done that before?" Grey asked, raising an eyebrow.

"No! Absolutely not! Which is why we're shocked!" Scarlet responded, blinking in disbelief.

"Whatever," Grey scoffed. "You all did a damn good job out there. Especially you, Vince and Greg. You both exceeded expectations. You broke your limits... I'm proud of you."

Then he chuckled, a wicked glint in his eye. "Too bad Vince is going to die tomorrow."

Vince growled and hurled a pillow at him, flames bursting from his palm and incinerating it midair.

"Not funny," Vince muttered.

"To me, it's hilarious," Grey replied, still grinning. "I just wanted to see your face when you saw that feature."

"He went pale," Raze snickered.

"Did I ask you? Don't forget, you're also getting buried tomorrow," Grey shot back.

"I can manage," Raze shrugged.

"I doubt that," Jay said. "Before you even blitz around with lightning, your world will already be six feet under."

"Says the guy that nearly got battered by wind blades. Oh! Actually, you did get battered and then smashed by someone using the same element as you." Raze retorted.

"I took on two opponents. You couldn't even handle one. I'm the real man here."

"Real man? You got thrashed by women," Scarlet scoffed.

"Weren't you nearly killed by Dave? If it wasn't for the dual crystal break, you'd be toast," Jay snapped.

Grey shook his head, amused. "Look at you all. Pots calling kettles black. If it weren't for your breakthroughs, none of you would be here."

"At least we participated," Greg said, crossing his arms. "Where were you?"

"You do know that if I joined, it won't be fair to the upperclassmen. The competition would be over in mere minutes."Grey replied with mock pride.

"Big words from someone who couldn't really beat Dave," Scarlet sneered.

"You're forgetting something. I did beat him. Not once, but twice." Grey glared at her.

"Right, I actually forgot," Scarlet muttered, scratching her head.

"No surprise there. Memory loss—a sign of old age," Grey said, tapping his temple.

"Hey! What do you mean?" Scarlet snapped loudly.

"That you are getting old? Is that so hard to comprehend?" Grey asked when he tapped his forehead. "Right, old age."

"I'm going to burn you to a crisp." Scarlet roared as she tried to stand up when she fell back on the bed which earned her a chuckle from Grey.

"Good luck with that, grandma." He smirked.

"You...!" she growled while the others burst out laughing, their earlier worries momentarily forgotten.

Grey sobered. "On a serious note—you all did great. You blew my mind today. I'm proud to say I don't have weak friends. Though you are still weak, so don't let that get to your heads."

He turned towards the door, hand on the knob. Then he paused and glanced over his shoulder.

"Tomorrow, crush your opponents. Show them you're not pushovers. Don't disappoint me."

His smile was genuine, and it was mirrored across the room.

But just before he twisted the knob to leave, he looked straight at Vince.

"Oh, lest I forget. What colour of coffin do you prefer? Vince."

"Damn you, Grey!" Vince shouted, launching a metal shard toward the door—but Grey was already gone, the shard embedding itself into the wood.

Laughter erupted again, echoing like a battle cry for what tomorrow would bring.
