The answer is "energy". The riddle says that the word ends in the letters g-r-y; it says nothing about the order of the letters.

In Boggle, players make constrained words from a grid of sixteen random letters, by joining adjacent cubes.

The ology ending is a combination of the letter o plus logy in which the letter o is used as an interconsonantal letter which, for phonological reasons, precedes the morpheme suffix logy. [1] Logy is a suffix in the English language, used with words originally adapted from Ancient Greek ending in -λογία (-logia). [2]
When the suffix is added to a word ending in the letter y, the y before the suffix is replaced with the letter i, as in happily (from happy). This does not always apply in the case of monosyllabic words; for example, shy becomes shyly (but dry can become dryly or drily , and gay becomes gaily ).
