"Did you hear?" someone asked his fellow student as they stood in the hallway, leaning against the wall. "Heard what?" the student asked. "That a first-year beat up Dave Walter!" the student replied. "A first-year beat up Dave? Impossible! Stop making things up, please," the student said and was about to leave. "I'm serious. I saw it with my own eyes. Just a few moments ago, they were fighting at the arena, and Dave even had to go into breakthrough mode but was still unable to defeat him," the student said. "Hahaha! And you really want me to believe that? You just said he went into breakthrough mode and still couldn't defeat a first-year?" the student laughed. "I'm serious! I saw it with my own eyes," the student said. "I'm not crazy." "Tch! Next time you want to cook up something, make it more believable," the student said as he scoffed while leaving the hallway when two more students passed by them. "I can't believe that a first-year really f*cked Dave up," one of the two students said. "Dude even went into breakthrough mode and was still beaten out of it," the second one said, and they laughed about it when the other student that was leaving earlier halted his steps as he turned back to see his partner pointing to his ears and then back at the two discussing students. And that was how the news of a first-year beating up the son of the Lunaria squad's captain to the extent that he went into breakthrough mode and was still beaten out of it spread like wildfire in just ten minutes of the students being dispersed from the arena. The news mostly spread among the second years while Dave was in the clinic getting checked up, and Grey and his group were seen in their own level clinic as Vince was still getting checked up for internal injuries. Even Grey was getting checked up for injuries too as he lay in his bed while reminiscing on the fight that happened twenty minutes ago. 'Why did I call Vince my friend, and why did my blood boil so much seeing him in that condition? And what the hell is that breakthrough thingy? It suddenly amplified his magic, mana, speed, strength, and even durability,' Grey thought, and then something flashed in his mind. The image of when Noir came out and immediately eliminated the metal constructs that were heading for him earlier. 'Noir! How did you do that earlier? You were so fast that I was unable to keep up,' Grey thought. "Tch! That was half my normal speed. I just came out and moved so fast that no one was able to keep up and used my laser magic on the constructs, blowing them up. No biggie," Noir replied. 'Wait! Half your normal speed? Who are you kidding? I was able to keep up with you earlier. You were not as fast as this,' Grey thought. "I wasn't, and if you remember, I told you I was weakened after the fight with the otherworlders along with my previous owner. That was why I challenged you to a fight to gauge your strength and also attach myself to you. The more I'm around you, the more your mana feeds me, helping me recover from my previous injuries and the restrictions placed on me," Noir replied. 'Wait! That wasn't your full power nor your speed?!' Grey screamed in his mind as he gulped loudly, fearing how much more powerful Noir would become if he stuck with him a bit longer. "And just a reminder, I told you that when I'm strong enough, I will still challenge you to a fight. I need to know that my owner is capable and strong. If not, I will just kill you off," Noir said, and then he went quiet. 'Challenge? Kill me off?! I'm telling you, I will get so much stronger that I will be the one who burns you to a crisp, you annoying familiar,' Grey screamed in his head, but there was no response when… "Grey." Vince called out as he was seen heading towards him. "Thank you," he said, bowing down slightly towards Grey. "If you hadn't come on time, I wouldn't be here by now. So for that, you have my gratitude." "It was nothing. I really like you, that's why I didn't let you die. You are not like some arrogant nobles," Grey said as he looked towards Scarlet, who just scoffed. "Thank you for saving my friend, even though you are an annoying, arrogant peasant," Scarlet scoffed. "I didn't know you considered Vince your friend," Raze said, stepping forward with a chuckle when Grey shot him a death glare. "Did I ask you to interfere?" he asked. "Yikes! You are such a sucker. Why don't you admit to some things?" Raze scoffed when he saw a wind blade appear in front of him, and he gulped loudly in fear. S~eaʀᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. And then the blade disappeared with Grey chuckling slightly. "You all are not as bad as I think," he muttered a little loud as he walked forward and then glanced towards Scarlet. "Although some people are still annoying." "I will burn you to a crisp, you annoying peasant!" Scarlet said, and a burst of flames erupted around her hands. "Can you even contend with me? If you can, then let's go," Grey smirked, and the flames around Scarlet's hand diminished. "You both really act like lovers at times," Arthur commented with a chuckle when the whole room suddenly got hot as Grey and Scarlet shouted at once. "We are not and would never be lovers!" "Yeah, right," Vince chuckled. --- {A/N} Want more chapters?
