Magus Supremacy-Chapter 76: Stay here!

'I couldn't see or do anything when the female attacked me… not even a fighting chance. If he was to attack, I would be dead in an instant.' Grey gulped again while Noir was still rolling in laughter.

And all of a sudden, a shining and bright light began glowing in the room that some of them had to cover their faces and in an instant, the light got dimmed while Grey slowly opened his eyes to see light swords in front of him.

The swords had mana running through it while looking like golden swords made of light.

With a smile, the male elf looked at him. "Light magic! Swords of punishment!"

Grey on seeing the swords made of light hanging above him, he gulped loudly while breaking out in sweat.

'I'm cooked! Is this how Solid, Bale and Clark felt when they knew I could easily overpower them?' Grey thought with wide eyes as he kept looking at the shimmering light coming from the sword while Carla kept smiling.

Swinging his hand forward, Licht sent the swords heading towards Grey and knowing there was nothing he could do, he quickly lifted an earth wall while his eyes were closed in fear waiting for the impact and possibly death of him since he knew there was no way he could escape or come out unscathed.

But to his surprise, there was no impact and then an ear piercing laughter was heard in the room while Grey slowly let the earth wall down but he had wind surrounding his hands just in case.

And then looking around, he could see the light swords were stopped just inches away from his face while Licht was rolling with laughter and everyone had a confused expression on their faces.

"I was just kidding, I'm not going to kill you." Licht said.

"So does that mean you are letting me go scot free?" Grey asked swallowing a big lump of saliva.

And then the light swords all dissipated with Licht walking forward towards Grey with a smile on his face.

"Although I'm not going to kill you, you are still going to be punished for destroying nature. And your punishment is that you would be required to stay here for a week and help around the town while I study your powers more."

"A week?!" Grey shouted as he slowly rose up in fear.

"Any problem? I'm giving you two choices right now, either you die or you stay here for a week. Choose one." Licht said with a smirk as he walked back to his throne and so did Charla as she wondered what Licht was planning on doing.

'I don't want to die, I haven't accomplished my mission yet so I can't die. And it's obvious that if he wanted to kill me, he could do it in the blink of an eye. But if I were to stay here for a week, what would I tell mum? She would be so worried. But come to think of it, I can only worry about mum if I'm alive right?' he thought as he had his head facing downwards in thoughts.

"Well, what's your decision?" Licht asked.

"I will stay here for a week." Grey sighed.

"Good boy." Licht smiled and then he turned towards old man Jankis. "Please show him where he would be staying from now on and his duties that will make up for destroying the trees."

"Sure." Jankis said and then he led Grey away from the leader towards the quarters where he would be staying.

When they were out of sight, Charla turned towards Licht. "Why?"

"Why what?" Licht asked. "Be more specific with your questions will you?"

"I mean why did you let that human off lightly?" She asked and then she saw Licht sigh.

"What's my magic?" He asked and she raised an eyebrow in confusion.

"Light magic… why?" Charla asked.

"Correct! I use light magic but not in the way humans use it. Although my magic can heal, it can also destroy. And when I had released my light sword towards him, I felt something I haven't felt in any race or being before be it humans or elves." Licht said.

"Felt? What is that?" Charla asked.

"Power! Power beyond anything anybody has ever seen. Power to even rival and go against them." Licht said with a small smile on his face and Charla's eyes widened in shock.

"Yo… you mean… you mean he can rival them?" She asked and Licht nodded in agreement.

"And about him destroying the trees, it really was a honest mistake. I felt it when he was confessing and begging for his life." Licht said.

"But power to rival them? How come?" Charla asked.

"I don't know and that is why I said he should stay here for a week so I can study him properly… if I notice the slightest sign that he would use his powers for evil, then he is going to be eliminated immediately but if not, then the humans better watch out." Licht laughed.

Meanwhile, Jankis was leading Grey to where he would stay in the palace when they passed by a female elf that had green leaves surrounding her head like a crown with her golden long hair flowing in the wind beautifully while her almond brown eyes were shining beautifully.

"Old man Jankis!" The elf called out.

"Princess Elara!" Jankis said.

"Oh please! Stop being formal. You call my dad by his name and call me with accolades? It's not fair." Elara said while pouting her mouth cutely as if she was upset.

Jankis just chuckled. "I'm sorry about that Elara."

"Much better." Elara smiled and then looked behind old man Jankis to look at Grey who had his shirt on with a stern look on his face as if he was annoyed by everything going on that he even failed to acknowledge the female elf in front of them.

"And who is that? I think I have seen their race somewhere." Elara said as she stared hard at Grey and feeling that someone or something was looking his way, he turned around to look at the female elf with his stern brown eyes.

"Why the stare?" He asked sharply as he calmly felt her mana.

'Although she has huge amount of mana like the rest, I can feel she poses no threat to me.' he thought.

"This is Grey right?" Old man Jankis said as he turned towards him for confirmation but Grey just scoffed. "Yeah! He is Grey. A human under probation for a week for destroying some trees."

"What?! That's a taboo." Elara exclaimed.

"Yeah yeah. I know now and I apologized to you all but I'm still forced to be here." Grey said in frustration.

"You should be grateful you didn't get killed by my mum for doing that." Elara chuckled.

'So she is the daughter of the Licht and Charla fellow huh… But how come she feels weaker than them seeing as she is royalty. The only thing that would give me trouble is her huge amount of mana.' Grey thought.

"Anyway, I'm off to train. Take care of our guest." The elf said and quickly left.

"I'm not your… nevermind she is gone." Grey said and then Jankis began walking again.

"C'mon, let's get a move on." Jankis said and they left the hallway towards Grey's new room.
