Chapter 613 - Chaos Orb
"Let us leave and I'll act like I never saw you," Grey threatened.
He was hoping to use the fear of the Factions in the Aurora Continent to scare this person away. Of course, he wasn't too hopeful it would work out, but he wanted to try.
"Hehehe, do you think we're scared of those stupid Factions? Even in the Middle Continent, we still act as we want, and there's nothing they can do to us," The figure said.
"Them," Grey said.
"What?" The figure asked in confusion.
"There's nothing they can do to them. The likes of you can't really dare to act wildly in the presence of the top Factions, you'll be killed in the blink of an eye," Grey corrected the figure.
Klaus and Reynolds who were by the side understood that Grey was belittling the figure and burst out laughing. Even in a situation like this, it was never a bad time to get a good laugh.
The figure started to shake visibly from anger. It was clear to see that Grey's words triggered a bad memory.
"What do you know? I'll kill you here and now," The figure said before attacking Grey with a powerful attack.
The figure didn't even call out a corpse, which came as a shock to Grey.
Instructor Blake rushed in front of Grey to defend him from the attack.
"Be careful, this is unlike them. They never physically attack unless they are forced to, or have a hidden motive," Grey warned.
Instructor Blake nodded, keeping his distance as he attacked the figure.
Buzz! Crackle! Boom!
Lightning danced across the entire town.
With two great lightning users attacking at the same time without any restraints, it was understandable how the situation in the town would be.
The figure continued attacking, and to Grey's surprise, this person was stronger not only with their elemental attacks but with physical attacks as well.
'No wonder she wasn't affected when I slammed her into the ground,' He said to himself as he watched the battle unfold.
The Principal was still entangled with the three Sage Plane corpses, even though he had been able to push them back one at a time, they were able to quickly get back together to stop him from moving.
'Void, how are things over there?' Grey asked.
He would feel a lot safer if Void was present here.
'Can you believe these bastards also do these things to my kind as well? I'll be done with them soon,' Void replied, still annoyed by what he saw.
'Be fast with it, there's still more hiding around, but I don't think we can deal with them now. Escaping should be our top priority,' Grey said.
'Don't worry, they'll get dead soon,' Void said.
Grey looked at the chaotic situation in front of him before shaking his head, "Must people always find ways to cause conflict? Can't we just live in peace?"
"I'm sure you know the answer to that question," Alice said.
Grey sighed before looking down, he knew what Alice meant. Even though things were like this, he still wanted to live a peaceful life, but people kept on interfering with it.
'The only way I can have what I want is to be the strongest, so strong that they wouldn't want to speak about me even when I'm not there,' He concluded in his heart.
Boom! Bang!
The figure managed to successfully send Instructor Blake flying, but before she could capitalize on it, Instructor Blake attacked as well, forcing her to retreat.
"You all will make nice puppets, hehehe," She cackled evilly as she attacked once again.
Grey looked at the situation and the thought of using the Fusion State came to his mind, but he quickly tossed it aside. They still didn't know what was in the shadows, so showing all their cards now will be dangerous for them.
'I'll use that to assist the Instructor,' He said to himself.
Opening his palm, three different elemental essences started to gather on top of it. He hadn't used the chaos orb in a while now, and since he didn't want to show the Principal and the Instructors all the elements he could control, he only used three.
It will not be as powerful as the one with all seven elements in his control, but its power shouldn't be too bad.
Instructor Delia was the first to notice Grey's movements, followed by his friends. This was also their first time seeing him use it, so they looked at it with curiosity.
They could all feel the power that was gathering inside the orb forming above Grey's palm.
While making it, Grey had been searching for an opportunity to contact Instructor Blake so he wouldn't be caught in the attack. Even though it wouldn't kill him it would still hurt a little.
The energy stirring on top of his hand naturally drew the attention of everyone in the place. Even the Principal turned to look at it.
'How many secrets does this kid have?' The Principal thought to himself.
When Instructor Blake saw this, he knew full well what Grey's plan was.
He soon started to push the figure in a certain direction. Since he mainly used long-range he kept a considerable distance from her.
Grey was already fully prepared for the attack, swiftly throwing it in the direction Instructor Blake was pushing the figure.
Boom!
A white light spread out in all directions, causing a loud explosion that even reached where Grey and his friends were standing.
The group hastily retreated.
The Principal managed to push one of the corpses inside the range of the blast while also retreating.
Instructor Blake was beside Instructor Delia. Protecting her from the impact of the blast.
"Since when could you do that?" Klaus asked.
"Well, it's been a while now," Grey replied sincerely.
"You never cease to amaze me," Instructor Blake said.
"He's my friend, what do you expect?" Klaus said proudly.
Instructor Blake smacked the back of Klaus' head lightly.
