Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 1442  Reassess Your Choice Of Friends

”A nice time to kill off a few Necromancers. I donʼt think this is the hideout that guy told me about.” Grey deliberated on it.

If this was the hideout Lewis told him about, then there shouldʼve been Necromancers with weaker cultivation stages, but there are only five Peak Venerables present. Grey couldnʼt sense the presence of anyone else which also indicated that these were the only people present here.

There are Magical Beasts in the area, but they were all low leveled and werenʼt of any threat to him.

A few minutes later, Void returned with the man and his three siblings. The three were under the control of the man which was what Grey wanted.

”I didnʼt know thereʼs a place like this in the region.” The man looked around curiously. This was his first time being here as well.

This confirmed Greyʼs hypothesis, this wasnʼt the Necromancersʼ hideout he was planning to raid with his friends.

”Are you familiar with them?” Grey asked the man.

”Just him. The others look familiar, but I canʼt put my finger around where I know them.” The man replied.

”Okay. The Elder isnʼt in his full strength, you should be able to handle him. Iʼll kill off one of them with a sneak attack, do well to kill the person that will appear on this spot.” Grey told the man his plan.

Since these people didnʼt know of their presence, he would use it to his advantage and take out two of them with a single attack. If two of the five people present die from the start, itʼll give their group the advantage over them.

His plan was to switch places with one of the men and attack the person close to that person. At first, he wanted to use a wide scale attack, but after thinking about the strengths of each of them, he knew a wide range attack wouldnʼt be able to kill them all, so instead of doing that, he wanted to focus all his energy on just one person, and he already had his target. A man that had short hair.

The person he would switch places with was a lady that was sitting close to the man.

The twinsʼ job was to kill the lady heʼs going to change places with.

”Thereʼs an array here.” The Twins said.

”It has been sorted. Iʼve bypassed it. They wonʼt sense it until itʼs too late.” Grey waved it off.

The twins were impressed at Greyʼs efficiency. The fact that he left only a few minutes ago but he had planned so much and even bypassed such a powerful array shows that he wasnʼt a rash individual.

”Alright, let me know when youʼre ready.l The twins replied.

Grey prepared himself, thinking of the sequence of attacks to use to ensure the man dies before he can even react. A minute later he opened his eyes and said, ”Iʼm ready.”

The twins prepared to attack, also controlling their siblings to attack the position Grey was standing on.

”Attack!” Grey said and his figure blinked and changed to that of a lady.

The twins and his siblings didnʼt waste any time and attacked as soon as Greyʼs voice faded.

The lady who Grey switched places with didnʼt know what was happening until it was too late. Her eyes were wide open as the attacks of all four people rained down on her. Even with her Peak Venerable cultivation Plane, she wasnʼt able to react to such an unexpected attack from people of this strength.

This wasnʼt the only place an attack was taking place.

On the place the lady was seated, Grey suddenly appeared and his eyes locked on the manʼs eyes. The man didnʼt expect the person he was looking to change, nor did he expect to see such spectacular pale blue eyes. The eyes were the last thing he saw before he felt his consciousness start to freeze. Not just that, but he sensed a powerful attack on his body.

He wanted to move, but he found out that his body was stuck to the ground. The gravity in the place had changed from what it used to be, and he couldnʼt adjust to it in time.

The attack landed on his body, but that was not the end. More attacks rained on him and his eyes continued staring at those pale blue eyes before he finally lost consciousness, he was dead under the barrage of attacks.

Everything happened within a second that the others still hadnʼt gotten time to process what just happened.

They heard the attacks from the side where the lady appeared, and just as they were turning to look at what was happening, they heard another attack close to them. This was too dangerous.

Their attention turned back to the man Grey chose to attack, and they felt dread when they saw a multicolored orb tossed at them. Without hesitation, they all flew into the sky, retreating from the range of the attack.

”Haha, so easy.” Greyʼs horrifying voice echoed in the explosion before he flew up, confronting them.

The old man who ran here was stunned to see Grey standing before him.

”You… how did you get here?” He asked, shocked.

”Iʼm a Space Elementalist. Do you think I canʼt track you down even with that trick of yours?” Grey asked with a sneer.

”Impossible!” The old man exclaimed.

”Heʼs Grey Dawson?” One of the other two who survived asked with a cold look.

”Yes, heʼs Grey Dawson. The kid the Gnomes want dead.” The old man replied.

”And you brought him here?” One of them asked, not pleased with Greyʼs visit.

”You donʼt have to argue, Iʼll be leaving soon. I just need him dead. You guys didnʼt offend me.” Grey smiled, ”Hand him over and Iʼll leave.”

The twins and his siblings flew to Greyʼs side.

”Oh, and I have backup.” He added with a cheeky smile.

The men looked at the old man, but the old man said, ”Youʼre still a kid, do you think you can trick us?”

”You would need to reassess your choices when making friends.” Grey saw the eyes of the duo standing behind the man and said coolly.
