Magus Supremacy-Chapter 51: Summoned
*1 week later*
It was finally a week after the terrible incident in the town Grey lived in and the town was now being rebuilt slowly. The destroyed buildings were now being repaired while new ones were being erected in replace for the ones that couldn't be repaired.
In this one week, even though Grey reprimanded the townspeople earlier, more still kept coming to thank him and he kept on lashing at them all but they still kept coming.
So in anger, he left the house for the forest where he always trained and everyday for the past week, he kept honing his skills. When he gets back, his relationship with Jesse wasn't even getting better.
Jesse always tried to get closer to him but he kept pushing her away angrily as he couldn't forgive her for putting his mother in that dangerous situation. No matter what Clara did or said, it didn't help to calm Grey's resentment towards Jesse.
Throughout the week, he always trained his wind and fire magic more especially his fire magic as it was still in the lowest points possible and he was making significant progress.
Like any other day, Grey was seen in the forest training hard with his affinities. A fireball was seen heading for a nearby tree and before it hit, a strong gust of wind was felt hitting it and causing it to explode as it touched the tree.
Standing a few metres away from a tree, he crossed his hands like an X and glared at the three while imagining it was a Talonus of some sorts.
"Wind magic! Wind blades!" Right on cue, several blades made of wind appeared around him. Swinging his hand forward, they all went forward and tremendous speed and crashed with the tree.
The more the wind blades sliced the tree, the more marks were beginning to show as the wind blades were chipping at the tree and slowly, as they were dissipating, huge marks were beginning to show and finally, the wind dissipated.
"Now that's what I'm talking about!" Grey smiled excitedly as he examined the tree in front of him. "Repeated use of my wind magic has made it stronger than before although the points are not noticeable, it Is still something."
"Not only has my wind blades gotten sharper, but Aerius is now stronger too. Although not as strong as Aerius ultra, but still stronger than before.
Let me not also forget my fire magic, it has improved significantly." He said and then he used his appraisal skill on himself to bring out his attributes.

Looking at his attributes, he smiled widely before walking to his little cave that he made for himself but he didn't go in. Instead, he walked around it and began his trip back to the volcano that was around thirty metres away from his cave.
Getting there, he sat down cross legged at the foot of the volcano and closed his eyes to begin meditating.
'After so many weeks, I have finally found out the secret to increasing my fire affinity. It is too meditate in a fiery place so I can absorb the mana in the air that has been mixed with the fire and heat coming off from the volcano.'
Every day that Grey came here, he always did the same thing. He would first of all train with his affinities in the forest and when he felt his mana dwindling, he would come to the volcano to meditate and then slowly rise his fire magic points.
'My wind magic is still in the lead and that's because it is the easiest to raise up. It just needs repeated use to increase.' he thought and then his mind flashed back to the fight with the Talonus'
'I can't believe I battle head to head with a level 4 beast. If I hadn't unlocked three affinities, I'm sure I would have died by now. Imagine I only had one affinity, I wouldn't have survived. But it was still thanks to Noir I am not dead now.
If it hadn't come out and gave me that pep talk, I would have admitted defeat and let the Talonus kill me. But since that day, it hasn't spoken to me nor come out.' he sighed and then he felt his core vibrating slightly.
"Battery full! Time to go home." He smiled and then stood up and began walking back home slowly and casually with his hands in his pockets.
'I need more money soon! But how am I supposed to do it when there are hardly beasts around here? Even if there were beasts, their cores won't be that useful as they would be low tier.' Grey thought as he was on his way out of the forest while heading home.
'Although the bronze land has a lot of strong beasts that could sell for a lot of coins, where will I tell mum I went to for some days?' he sighed and now he was fully out of the forest while he would soon get home.
After few more minutes of thinking and walking, he was finally home as he could see his house off in the distance but something felt odd as he could see several figures in front of his house.
Quickly, he bolted forward while using his wind magic to make himself faster and in less than a second, he was already in front of his house while blowing wind everywhere.
Immediately he stood in front of his house, he could see his mum in front of him while in front of her were six men that suddenly broke out in cold sweat seeing the young Grey in front of them.
"Oh great! The one you are looking for is finally here!" Clara announced and then Grey raised an eyebrow while turning around to look at the men in front of him.
One of them gulped down slightly as Grey kept staring at them.
'This… this is the mage that saved the town? The one who was a cripple before becoming mysteriously powerful? I don't think the stories were exaggerated at all, I could feel the sheer power and speed when he ran over here just now.' he thought.
That was when someone stepped forward. "Grey Dawn?"
"Yes! Who's asking?" Grey asked causally.
"We are here on behalf of the town lord, you have been summoned by the town lord and failure to comply, will bred terrible consequences."
"Is that a threat?" Grey asked with a slight smirk playing on his lips while fire began roaring around his hand.
