Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 1395 Intense Battle

Grey and Klaus felt their eyes twitch repeatedly.

”Beat him up when weʼre leaving?” Klaus looked at Grey.

Grey nodded, he was willing to indulge Klaus this time. Reynolds was showing off too much. For some reason, this entire trial has been a means for Klaus and Reynolds to show off. Even Alice wasnʼt an exception. Due to the blazing performances of her friends, she couldnʼt be left out which made her show off to a certain extent.

Of all of them, Grey could be said to be the only one who acted naturally. Well, given the fact that he was always the first to make a move, which would in turn set a high bar for the others to attempt.

Reynolds didnʼt know the plans his friends had for him, he was more focused on dominating his opponents.

The duo attacked, charging at Reynolds with flaming swords.

Reynolds created a lightning spear and started an epic battle with them. Elementalists rarely fight in this manner, so it was a great sight for those watching as it was something fresh.

While watching, most of the Elementalists recalled their days before they got to the Arcane Plane. During those days, they couldnʼt manipulate the elements outside their body. Other than using the elemental essence to strengthen their bodies, there was no way to use elemental attacks.

For those in the Aurora Continent, they donʼt really have much experience with this since they blaze through the first two Planes due to the abundance of essence present here. But for those like Grey and his friends who grew up in the Azure Continent with lesser essence, their first journeys always have to do with them heading out without being able to use elemental attacks. How well one could strengthen themselves with the elements determines how strong they are.

”Rey has the advantage in both speed and strength. Adding the fact that he had a longer time fighting with weapons, he shouldnʼt have a problem quickly defeating them.” Grey speculated.

Klaus and Alice also felt the same way, but they didnʼt come to a conclusion since they knew nothing was certain.

On the platform.

Things went just how Grey said it would. Reynolds was using his superior speed and strength to get the better of his opponents. The fact that he was also using a spear made it even more terrifying for his opponents. They could barely get close to him while due to his long range of attack, he is able to strike them.

”At this rate, they will lose even before the start of the fight.” The middle-aged man said.

The duo, as if they could hear what the middle-aged man said, changed their tactic. From swords, they started attacking with flaming arrows. They knew there was no way they could get close to Reynolds, so they started using long range attacks.

Reynolds tried to close the gap between them, but they kept their distance as they started to use long range attacks.

ʼI thought Iʼd be able to play a little longer. Guess I have to go with the flow too.ʼ

Reynolds stopped trying to get close to them and multiple lightning bolts fell from the sky. He used the technique, lightning rain.

When he was still at the Lunar Academy, he attempted learning this technique, but it was one of the top lightning techniques in the Faction that was very difficult to master. Grey caught the hang of it very quickly, and so did Alice, although a little slower than Grey.

Reynolds learned it a little slower, but he was able to learn it. With his current strength, he could cause a continuous lightning rain for a few days if he wills it. Of course, it would expend a large amount of essence, but itʼs something he can work with.

The lightning rain forced the duo into a corner, but they were covered with flames as they both made use of their domains.

Reynolds, seeing this also used his domain. The domain of the duo clashed with his, while he sent bolts of lightning at them.

A large lightning snake flashed through the sky as it opened its mouth and tried to swallow the duo.

The duo knew if they were caught in that attack, it would be the end for them. They steeled their minds and created two large fire dragons that charged towards the lightning snake.

The attacks crashed into each other, causing a large explosion. The impact of the attack rampaged on the platform.

Reynolds, being the superior one stood on the same spot, not moving an inch.

The duo were forced to take some steps back.

This was their strongest attacks, but even when combined, they were only able to just barely block Reynoldsʼ attack. They knew for sure that this was not Reynoldsʼ strongest attack.

They started to have a feeling of doubt. If Reynolds used an even stronger attack, they were finished.

Reynolds looked at them, he chuckled and attacked once again. There was no point delaying any further.

The duo prepared for this attack, they wanted to make use of their domains for this attack.

A lightning snake appeared once again. This time, it was larger than what it used to be, the attack power was more than the previous one.

The duo created the fire dragons once again, thus time, their domains were placed inside it.

The fire dragons were stronger than the previous one, just like Reynoldsʼ own.

Boom!

The attacks struck each other and a powerful shockwave spread across the entire platform.

Everyone watching stared at the platform with curious eyes. They didnʼt think the battle would be this intense. This was the strongest clash so far.

Grey overpowered his opponent, so did Klaus. Alice fought with her opponent due to being at a disadvantage, while Reynolds was fighting against two people.

The attack died down and the platform came to view once again.

Reynolds was standing on the same spot, while the duo were both on the edge of the platform, both breathing heavily. Blood could be seen on the side of their mouths.
