Affinity: Chaos Chapter 1182 Collecting The Reward

Chapter 1182 Collecting The Reward

Jonas looked at the orb and couldn't help but feel a certain way deep down. He knew not to underestimate Grey, but the fact that Grey had always been above whatever way he evaluated him was a little crushing to him.
All geniuses had their pride, even with that pride he agreed that Grey was superior, but he didn't think the gap would be too large. Yet, Grey's performance was making him doubt himself.
Against this young man, he stood a chance, in fact, he was confident that he would win. However, against Grey that he was a stage above, he didn't even have the slightest bit of confidence.
Grey was very mysterious, and whenever he battles, he doesn't show signs of actually putting in all his effort, it was almost like he was holding back.
Take this attack Grey just used, for instance, the fact that Grey had that in his arsenal and had used it since he started battling was something else.
The orb appeared on Grey's hand almost instantaneously, but everyone above the Sage Plane knew that Grey was the one who created it within a second. This meant that he could use it, but he didn't use it during his previous battles.
'I should stop comparing him with humans, that should make it hurt less.' He consoled himself.
Back on the platform.
The young man, who was standing behind the Summon instantly retreated, not daring to be in the attack range of that orb. He didn't know what it was, but the power inside of it was clear for all to see.
The Wind Summon subconsciously grabbed the orb as it was coming its way, the moment it made contact with it the explosion people were expecting didn't occur, rather after the orb disappeared in a flash, the hand of the Summon started to disappear, and within two seconds, the Summon vanished, it was like it was never there.
Everyone looked at the scene in horror. Some of them looked at Grey's calm expression and couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines, especially those that had fought with him before. None of them were sure they would be able to block this attack.
The Summon disappeared, unable to block the attack. They all sensed attributes of the space element, so they were sure it was the doing of the space element.
At first a few thought the Summon was teleported away, but when they realized that it disappeared bit by bit instead of instantaneously, they knew it wasn't teleportation, rather, it was destroyed bit by bit.
Just the thought made their hairs stand on edge.
The young man who was fighting against Grey looked at him, a bit fearful. Although he knew the attack was dangerous, he didn't think it would be this dangerous. In fact, if he was asked if he could block it, he would not be able to respond because he knew he couldn't.
'What sort of freak is this?' He thought internally.
When he saw Grey standing harmlessly in his sea of flames, and his outstretched hand, he shivered and shook his head.
"I admit defeat."
That line silenced the entire place.
The young man has always been known for his unyielding attitude, but they all saw him give up in the presence of the mask wearing Grey who seemed incapable of hurting a fly due to his reserved attitude.
The man in charge of the platform declared the winner and Grey's wins were awarded. The man told him he could go collect his reward from the hall.
Grey nodded and walked away from the platform. The man watched his figure walk away from the platform, a little voice asking in his head if he could defend against that attack.
The greatest strength of that attack is the fact that defending against spatial attacks is the most terrifying thing. The other attacks are easy since they could be seen, as for spatial attacks, they come at you suddenly, giving you almost no chance to defend against them, unless you're a Space Elementalist and sense the spatial ripples on time.
When everyone saw the orb, no one expected it to have such an outcome, all they knew was that it was powerful. But no one knew what outcome it would produce, and most thought it would explode with frightening strength like most elemental attacks.
….
Outside the place.
Jonas, Void, and the bunny leader were waiting for Grey. Seeing Grey use that attack was nothing new to Void and the bunny leader, but to Jonas, it was something he had not seen before. He was staring at Grey with a shocked expression.
"Where's the Hall located?" Grey asked the moment he walked out.
Jonas pointed him in the direction and followed from behind. Void and the bunny leader sat on each side of Grey's shoulder. When they got to Hall, Jonas stood outside.
"Is there anyone inside?" Grey asked.
"No." Jonas replied.
"Can't anyone just come in and steal the items?" Grey couldn't help but ask.
"This is a place created by Gods, it will take a God to steal from it." Jonas chuckled before explaining, "Just like how you must have five wins before you can leave this place, that's how you must have a hundred wins before you can step into that place."
Grey nodded in understanding, "Oh, so that's how it works."
He climbed up the short flight of stairs and opened the door. A force surrounded him for a brief moment before disappearing. Since he came in with Void and the bunny leader, he could enter this place with the duo as well.
When he entered the Hall, he saw a vast and slightly empty place. There were a few shelves, but nothing else.
·ƈθm Grey looked above the shelves and saw that some things were written on them. Each row of shelves had a specific item, when he saw the one belonging to herbs, he walked in that direction.
Void and the bunny leader left his shoulder and decided to explore the place.
