Chapter 1344 Klausʼ Special Ability

After making a trade with the cat-type Beast, well, more like oppressing the Beast, he left. He wanted to leave the place as soon as he could.

He brought out his tracking device to see where his friends were located so he could track them down.

ʼHuh? Why are they together?ʼ When they split up, he didnʼt expect to find all three together when he left the secret realm.

ʼDid they find out about the Giants wanting to meet you with me?ʼ

This was the only question that came to his head. He knew there was no way the trio could get together unless they heard about the Giants wanting him or one of them was in a difficult position.

He didnʼt overthink about it and headed to where they were residing. With his speed, it was easy for him to get to where they were. On the way, he realized it was the Giantsʼ hideout, and it confirmed his first assumption; they mustʼve heard of him being invited over, and they came to see if it was a trap or not.

….

It didnʼt take more than an hour for Grey to get to where his friends were hiding.

”What are you guys doing here?”

His voice startled his friends who were seated.

”Damn it Grey! Stop moving like a thief!” Klaus cussed out while holding onto his chest.

He nearly had a heart attack thinking one of the Giants had sneaked behind them. If not for recognizing Greyʼs voice, he wouldʼve attacked without thinking twice.

”Iʼm not the one who has poor senses.” Grey rebuked.

”What the hell?! Rey, bring out your Elemental Warrior, letʼs teach him a lesson.” Klaus was ready to go to war.

Alice, seeing that Grey would most likely not give in to Klaus, stepped in.

”You really shouldnʼt be doing this. Weʼll be forced to attack you one day.” She said while standing in front of Klaus.

She might not always support Klaus, but she was with him in this. She just didnʼt want them to get into a fight here.

Grey didnʼt speak about it anymore and went back to his initial question, ”What are you guys doing here?”

He paused and laughed, ”Donʼt tell me you were worried about me?”

He knew the answer, but he wanted to hear it from Klausʼ mouth.

”To hell with you! I wanted to invade this place and called them over.” Klaus was never going to accept that he was here because of Grey.

Grey turned his gaze to Alice and Reynolds, and unlike Klaus who could lie to Grey without an eye, they couldnʼt. So they avoided his gaze.

Grey was already aware of the reasons they were here, but he still decided to play along with Klaus.

”Oh, what might that be?” He asked.

”I donʼt know, but I sensed it when walking past so I called them over. I heard the leader of the Giants wasnʼt around, along with a good number of Peak Elemental Venerables. So Iʼm seeing if I can take it before they return.” Klaus explained.

Alice and Reynolds were shocked at Klausʼ statement. They didnʼt think he would cook up such a lie within a few seconds.

Klausʼ serious expression surprised them.

”Whereʼs Void?” Klaus asked when he didnʼt see him on Greyʼs shoulder.

”Heʼs busy. Why? Arenʼt I enough to help you steal what you want?” Grey was convinced Klaus was playing around.

”Hmm, since you can sneak up on us, then you shouldnʼt have any problems with doing this.” Klaus replied after thinking for a while, he added, ”What I want is in the eastern part of the castle, Iʼve not been there so I donʼt know what it is, but since you have the water element, you should be able to sense it when you get close to it.”

”Uh?” Grey was confused, but seeing Klausʼ face, he knew he wasnʼt lying. What he couldnʼt understand was why the others didnʼt know about it.

The facial expressions of Reynolds and Alice indicated this was the first time they were hearing about this treasure Klaus was speaking about.

”Wait, youʼre serious?” He asked when he saw the seriousness in Klausʼ face.

”Why would I lie?” Klaus asked with a straight face.

Grey squinted his eyes and said, ”Are you sure about the area you sensed the item?”

Klaus nodded.

”Iʼll go check it out. If youʼre right, Iʼll bring it for you.” Grey said and vanished.

”The space element sure is very convenient.” Klaus muttered after Grey disappeared.

If he were the one who had the space element, well, he wouldʼve taken a lot of items he wanted by now. There have been treasures he sensed but he didnʼt dare to take them due to the danger that came with them. The ones he takes are those ones he knew he wouldnʼt lose his life over.

….

In the Giantsʼ hideout.

Grey appeared in a secluded place where he was alone. He was still surprised by the fact that Klaus was actually right.

ʼMaybe he sensed it when he came here searching for me.ʼ

Void appeared and after sensing the area, he didnʼt find anything nice and disappeared once again.

Grey saw this and concluded maybe it had something to do with only Water Elementalists. The only thing was that he didnʼt sense it the last time he came here. Well, he didnʼt really explore the place. Maybe if he had walked to a few places, he wouldʼve been able to explore the place and sense it.

ʼHow come heʼs able to sense it from so far out?ʼ

Klaus was a strange individual. The fact that he could sense something from so far out and Grey, who was inside the hideout still hadnʼt gotten a wind of it tells you a lot about the type of person he was.

Now Grey was starting to understand why he was able to get so many good things whenever he was out. With such sensory ability towards water elemental treasures, it was a walk in the park for him when it comes to locating them.
