Chapter 1209 My Father Wants A Word With You
"What are you doing? He's going to kill you anyway. Stall him for some time, I'll be able to fight soon." The Space Elementalist said angrily.
He never thought that even these three would chicken out of the battle in such a pathetic manner. All Grey had done was to kill two people, and they were already scared for their lives.
"I'm sorry, Lord Nicola, we can't fight against him. You can punish us later." The middle-aged man said with a straight face.
The eyes of the Space Elementalist turned cold, he understood what the middle-aged man was saying, the possibility of him surviving this battle was quite low, this was something he was certain of. How would he be able to punish them if he was dead?
The Water Elementalist turned to the Space Elementalist, his facial expression sour. Things were not looking good for them.
"What do we do now?" He asked softly.
"Don't worry." The Space Elementalist reassured him and turned to the Old man, his eyes trailed on the body of the Old man for a while before he looked at Arthel, "Help me, I'll give that item to you."
Arthel felt moved when he heard this, he had been trying to get a special item from the Space Elementalist for years now, he even offered to trade for it, but the Space Elementalist had always refused to give it to him. This was something that would make his cultivation not only increase faster, but it was very good for improving his elemental strength.
The eyes of the Space Elementalist didn't leave Arthel's body as he awaited his response.
Arthel looked at the Old man, and he saw him shake his head. He couldn't help but sigh and turn to the Space Elementalist.
"Any other time, I would've helped you." Arthel shook his head, "But in this situation, even if I want to help, I can't."
The Space Elementalist kept a straight face when he heard Arthel's reply. He clenched his fists tightly, it was as if he could sense death looming around him. No one wanted to help him, even after offering a life-changing item as reward, they still refused to help.
"Don't die." He muttered to the Water Elementalist.
Hearing this statement, the Water Elementalist understood what the Space Elementalist wanted to do. The Space Elementalist was planning to sacrifice himself for him.
Grey heard this and smirked, there was no way he was going to let any of them leave. The Water Elementalist had already been marked by him, so no matter how far he runs, he would still be able to find him, except he leaves the realm.
The Space Elementalist took a step forward and stood in front of the Water Elementalist, he pointed his finger at Grey, and a black light beam shot at Grey.
Grey sent a fireball to intercept the beam, while also moving in the direction of the Space Elementalist.
The two attacks collided and caused an explosion. Just as Grey was about to get past the place the attacks collided, he sensed something odd in the attack and hastily retreated.
The space around the place he was previously at started to shake. If he had been in that place, he might've been sucked into the void. Even though he also had the space element, he didn't dare to get caught in the void. He might be transported to another location altogether, hence his carefulness when it came to it.
Grey tried to teleport to the place the Space Elementalist and the Water Elementalist were standing, but he noticed the space around his area seemed to have been disturbed, whenever he tried to create a spatial tunnel, he would be blocked or would notice that the tunnel wasn't protected, exposing him to the spatial turbulences.
His eyes turned serious. After fighting with the Space Elementalist, he knew it wouldn't be that easy to kill him.
He created a small orb that he sent into the explosion. This orb was different from his normal attacks, rather that exploding, it implodes, sucking everything around it inside. It was made with the space element.
Grey took flight as well, and three inscriptions appeared behind the Space Elementalist who was preparing to leave. It was clear that the attack he used and trying to stop Grey from using the space element was quite taxing on his already injured body.
When the inscriptions lit up the sky, the Water Elementalist slashed at two of them before they could attack, but the third one attacked very quickly, sending a lightning bolt to the back of the Space Elementalist.
The Space Elementalist was unable to block the attack and was hit by it. His injuries wish had stopped bleeding due to the help of the healing tonics he had taken and had even shown signs of healing started bleeding once again. He coughed out a mouthful of blood and staggered forward.
He sensed a grave danger in front of him and hastily forced his body to come to a halt.
The explosion in front of them suddenly disappeared, along with his efforts of trying to stop Grey from using the space element.
He looked up and saw a thin ice arrow heading for his head. One of his feet moved forward and his body flashed. He appeared close to the Water Elementalist, breathing heavily. The constant use of his essence in such a state was affecting him.
The Water Elementalist used the water element to seal the places the Space Elementalist was injured and supported him to stand upright.
"I guess… my time is now." The Space Elementalist commented and looked into the eyes of the Water Elementalist.
He tapped him on his shoulder and the figure of the Water Elementalist vanished from the place.
Grey made a move, jumping into the void. His intention was to stop the Water Elementalist from leaving.
Boom!
The void shook and Grey's figure shot out of a tear in the sky, slamming into the ground.
"I'll still kill him." He stood up and wiped the dust off his clothes.
"The mark you places on us? I wiped his the second I sent him away." The Space Elementalist chuckled.
Grey couldn't help but be impressed by the Space Elementalist's abilities. He had done this multiple times, and this was the first time he was seeing someone deal with it so casually.
He nodded at the Space Elementalist before shooting a beam of light at him. The beam had multiple colors, five to be exact. With a combination of five elements, even the Space Elementalist knew that it would be difficult for him to block the attack.
Just as the attack was about to reach him, he used the space element and tried to make it phase through him. However, his expression changed. He didn't have access to the space element. He looked up and saw Grey's smiling face.
His body soon started to dissipate. The space element destroyed his body bit by bit. Within a few seconds, the powerful Space Elementalist was no more.
The trio who were by the side could only watch on with mixed feelings. They didn't expect that such a young figure would be powerful enough to kill the Space Elementalist.
Grey turned to them, his expression, calm.
"Shall we?" He looked at them curiously.
"Huh?" One of them wore a confused expression. He didn't understand what Grey was asking from them.
"Yes, yes, young Lord, we can go now." The other middle-aged man by the side nodded.
Grey was asking about their treasury, he told them he would check it out. And now that he was done with the battle, he wanted to see if there was anything worth taking.
They all left the area, Void, Cori, and the bunny leader went with them.
The trio were quite rich, and Grey even got to find out the location of the Space and Water Elementalists' building. He went there to check if there was anything he needed, but it had been wiped clean.
Grey didn't take anything from the trio's treasury, there was nothing he found interesting there. Only Void and the bunny leader picked a few things, but they weren't of any importance, even the trio didn't mind them taking it. He also returned their storage rings to them, only taking the things he needed from it.
….
Outside the City.
Grey, Void, Cori, and the bunny leader stopped as there was someone standing in front of them.
It was Arthel.
"My father would like a word with you, Lord." Arthel said, he was very respectful when speaking with Grey, even though he was older, he was weaker than him, so there was no shame in being humble before him.
Grey looked at him and nodded. He recalled the Old man who stopped his son from getting involved in a battle that might have gotten him killed.
"Follow me." Arthel said and walked into the City.
Grey and his company followed behind him.
