Affinity: Chaos-Chapter 1281 Neglected Void
Inside the secret realm.
Grey appeared in the familiar yet odd-looking realm, he didn't know what to feel. He was always quite curious about what the part belonging to those in the Elemental Venerable Plane looked like, unfortunately, it was the same. It only had more essence which would produce more treasures.
"Let's move out, I don't think they want us to travel with them." Grey said to his friends.
He let out the bunny leader, "You might be able to get stronger bunnies here for the army."
The eyes of the bunny leader shone brilliantly, with a nod of its cute head, it disappeared.
"You're creating an army?" Reynolds couldn't help but ask.
"No, it's creating an army. It will be good to get more helpers, so I let it do as it pleases." Grey explained.
"What if he creates a powerful army and gets out of control?"
"Not possible, Void and I can deal with it, right Void?"
"Easy peasy."
Grey was the first to take a step forward, with his next step, he took others leave? I'll buy you guys some time." A young lady said.
She was in the Mid stages of the Elemental Venerable Plane, the flight and flew in the direction he could sense some activity.
….
Not too far from the portal, a group could be seen battling with Magical Beasts. These beasts were all in the Mid stages of the Seventh Rank, all exhibiting frightening powers.
"Matt, at this rate, we will not make it. Why don't you and the others leave? I'll buy you guys some time." A young lady said.
She was in the Mid stages of the Elemental Venerable Plane, the strongest in her group. The others were all in the Early stages which made it difficult for them to match the strength of the Magical Beasts. Even though they had superior numbers, they were still lacking in terms of sheer strength.
The young man referred to as Matt, looked at the young lady with somewhat teary eyes. They were on their way out of the realm when they were ambushed by a group of Gnomes, as if that was not enough, the Gnomes lured these beasts over when they realized they couldn't defeat them.
"But…"
"No buts! Leave now, I'll follow right behind you." The young lady interjected when Matt was about to speak.
Matt gritted his teeth and without hesitation, he took the other four that were with them and was about to leave.
"Oh, what do we have here?"
A calm voice woke him up from his short moment of hysteria. He didn't know who the voice belonged to, but for some reason, he not only found it to be familiar, but a sudden sense of safety overwhelmed him.
Grey was the first to appear, due to his speed, it was like he stepped out of the void. Behind him, Klaus, Alice, and Reynolds appeared. Void was still on his shoulder, looking at the scene without much enthusiasm.
These were only Magical Beasts in the Mid stages of the Seventh Rank, they were not enough to entice him.
"It's you!" Matt exclaimed when he saw Grey.
Grey had a face that was unforgettable. Being a male and being regarded as almost beautiful made it easy for him to always leave an impression on others. That, along with the last adventure he had here made him quite popular amongst the people that stayed there.
Matt was one of the few people Grey encountered when he was in the lower realm in this secret realm. They were both in the Sage Plane at that time, of course, Matt was already at the Peak at that time.
He only met with Grey a few times, but Grey gave him a feeling he had never felt from anyone else.
"Hello, I can see your friend is in a bit of trouble, I'll come back to you." Grey didn't speak with him, the reason was not because he wanted to hurry to help the young lady, but because he didn't recognize the young man.
From how the young man reacted, it was clear that he knew Grey, unfortunately, Grey didn't know him, and he didn't want to be put in an awkward position.
He was about to make a move when Alice and Reynolds stopped him.
"Let us deal with these things, they wouldn't stand a blow from you." Alice suggested.
Grey didn't think twice and let them make the move.
Alice's body cackled with lightning all over as she moved straight into battle, Reynolds didn't see any need to bring out his Elemental Warrior, these beasts might be strong, but not enough to trouble him.
There were only three.
Boom!
Alice was the first to attack, and from the onset, the difference between her and the young lady who was holding the beasts back was seen. Her attack power was superior to that of the young lady, even though the young lady was a stage ahead of her.
Reynolds was even more powerful, he sent one of the beasts flying with one attack while cutting off one of the hands of the other one with a clean strike.
He looked at the young lady, smiled softly and said, "Don't worry, we will handle it from here. You should heal up."
The short time she spent with the three Magical Beasts, although not more than a few seconds was telling on her, she was injured since she had to stop the beasts from chasing after the others.
She didn't argue with them and left, heading towards Matt and the others. She didn't know Grey. At the time Grey came here, she was already in the Elemental Venerable Plane and didn't get to meet him in the lower realm. She was too preoccupied to even hear the reaction of Matt when Grey appeared.
Grey and Klaus stood mid-air while Matt and his group were behind them. They watched as Alice and Reynolds pummeled the group of Magical Beasts that had almost taken all their lives. The difference in terms of genius was clear as day. And from what they could sense, they knew Grey and Klaus looked to be the strongest in the group. Void, as usual, was neglected.
