Chapter 1603 Slowly Becoming What They Hate

The Fourth Prince looked at his surroundings, he was familiar with the place he appeared in, and after getting himself together, he turned towards the west. This was the direction the First Princeʼs kingdom was located. The only person that could stop Grey at the moment was either the First Prince, or those Elders in the Palace. He wanted to get on the good side of the First Prince, so even if he had to give him the merit of killing Grey Dawson which is regarded as something vital to the entire Gnome race, then he didnʼt care, as long as he got his revenge, he was satisfied.

He picked up pace and brought out an orb, just as he was about to speak into it, he heard a voice that sent chills down his spine.

”Oh, youʼre going to report?”

He looked behind him and saw Greyʼs figure stepping out of the void, behind him were five figures.

”Im… impossible. H..how are you here?” The Fourth Prince started fidgeting, this was the person who made Old man Kerr self-destruct, he didnʼt stand a chance against someone like this. And if it truly is Grey Dawson, then he was finished.

”Locating you isnʼt hard, all we have to do is look at the sky, and it points in the direction of your smug face.” Klaus was the one who replied sarcastically.

”Grey Dawson sneaked in. Heʼs with…” The Fourth Prince paused mid-sentence, he looked at his hand, and couldnʼt find the orb he was supposedly speaking into, ”Huh?”

He was confused, he was holding onto it a few seconds ago, in fact, he could still feel the orb in his palm.

”It wouldnʼt be nice if others know of my arrival in your world, donʼt you think?” Grey asked with a smile while holding onto the orb.

The Fourth Prince didnʼt know how the orb happened to appear on Greyʼs hand, but then his eyes trailed to a little black fur ball on Greyʼs shoulder, it was Void, lying there peacefully. He was unnoticed by the Fourth Prince, only after his orb disappeared did he recall Grey had a small cat.

It is said that the cat is very strange, very few people know of his abilities, and since Grey rarely interacts with people outside his friends, it is almost impossible to know Voidʼs abilities.

”So itʼs truly you?” The Fourth Prince asked with a somewhat defeated voice.

”In the flesh.” Klaus knocked Greyʼs head lightly to show that he was not some kind of apparition.

”And you guys?” The Fourth Prince looked at Klaus and the others.

”Yup.” Klaus nodded with a devilish smile, it was as if he had been waiting for this in a while.

”You… you…”

”I know, I know, Iʼm.. weʼre awesome.” Klaus said as if he was speaking to a starstruck fan.

”What did you do to Cain?” The Fourth Prince pointed at the Seventh Prince.

”Youʼll find out soon.” Grey moved closer to the Fourth Prince who didnʼt even try to escape, it was as if he had lost the zeal fight.

The Fourth Prince didnʼt try to resist, as soon as Grey got within his range, he attacked.

There was no way he was going to go down without a fight. If Grey thinks he will take defeat in such a manner then he is dumb.

Grey already expected the Fourth Prince to act like this. He easily dealt with the Fourth Princeʼs attack, even though it was strong, it was within his ability.

He closed the gap between the duo, and stretched his hand, grabbing the Fourth Prince by the neck. The Fourth Prince tried to escape, but there was no way for him to escape from Greyʼs grasp. With the short range, he couldnʼt attack Grey.

Before he could make any moves, his essence was sealed.

”Donʼt worry, you wonʼt die, at least not yet.” Grey replied casually.

The Fourth Princeʼs expression was dire, he knew he was done, there is no way he could come back from this.

Grey has recovered from his mental strains, his mental energy flooded the head of the Fourth Prince.

The Fourth Prince screamed in pain, he didnʼt know what was happening, but he knew it was a terrible thing for him. From what he has heard about Grey, and his experience with him, he knew that he would not take it easy on him.

Klaus and the others watched the scene in front of them with a strange feeling, they didnʼt know what the Fourth Prince was feeling at the moment, but they knew they didnʼt want to ever be on the receiving end of something like this. Being controlled and not being able to even see what youʼre doing against your will, or even having any memory of it was a terrible experience.

At times, they couldnʼt help but feel some sort of dread towards Grey. What if one day he decides to use it against them? Will they have any memory of him ever doing something like this? In the end, it was all due to the fact that Grey wanted to ensure his safety, hence he ventured into things he didnʼt like. He was forced to become one of the things he hated the most.

The Fourth Princeʼs scream of pain was the only sound in the place, with Klaus, Alice, and Reynolds all having different thoughts about what is happening right now.

The voice of the Fourth Prince soon stopped, and he stopped struggling. He soon stopped moving, and before long, it was as if nothing happened.

Grey looked at his friends, he could tell that they were feeling a type of way.

”Do you hate this?” Grey asked.

The trio nodded.

”Me too.” Grey replied with a smile that wasnʼt really a smile on Directly support the authors on ReadNovelFull!

his face, he looked at his hands, ”I never thought Iʼd take this route in the end, but to stop them, we have to be even more ”Me too.” Grey replied with a smile that wasnʼt really a smile on his face, he looked at his hands, ”I never thought Iʼd take this ruthless.”

The group descended down to the cliff where the Fourth Prince was previously resting.

”What now?” Grey asked with a calm voice.

”We have to continue. The plan was to leave this world in chaos, killing as many Sovereigns and talents as we can.” Klaus has collected himself and said.

”At least, the Princes should be dealt with as soon as possible so we can leave in case of any unforeseen events.” Alice said.

Thereʼs a big chance that the Sovereigns from the Gnome world that went into the Godʼs tomb might come out sooner than they expected, so it was best to deal with the Princes first and then think of what to do next.

”Two of the Princes are already under our control, but they are not the important figures. We need the Third or Second Prince under your control.” Alice added.

”Iʼll send the Fourth Prince back, I heard he has some ties with the Sixth Prince. Heʼll help us deal with that guy while we take care of the Third and Fifth Prince. Once all Princes are under control, taking care of the Second Prince shouldnʼt be too hard.” Grey said.

The others didnʼt have any issues with Greyʼs plan and they set out once again, this time, their target was the Fifth Prince. Although they would have to take a detour before getting to the Seventh Princeʼs kingdom and ultimately the Third Prince, it didnʼt matter.

Unlike the Fourth Prince, the Fifth Prince was still in the Venerable Plane. The group didnʼt even bother to try to lure them out, after all, there was only one First stage Sovereign in the Fifth Princeʼs kingdom, and that wasnʼt someone who could bother them.

Grey sneaked in and out of the castle within a few minutes, and the Fifth Prince was well under his control.

One week later.

The group arrived at the Seventh Princeʼs kingdom. It wasnʼt as large as the First or Second, nor the Fourth Prince, but it was well within the range of the Fifth Princeʼs kingdom, it seemed richer in resources as well.

”This guy is having it easy, I wish my father was an Emperor.” Klaus commented as he looked at how they were being treated.

”You can stay here if you want. Youʼre not me who is widely sought after, as long as you avoid those old guys and the Emperor, you should be safe.” Grey suggested.

”Donʼt worry, Iʼm cool with just causing enough mayhem here.” Klaus didnʼt have any plans of staying here, of the four in the group, Grey was the only one who can even trick others into believing he is a Necromancer, the rest were just covered by the darkness elemental aura. Thereʼs no way he would take the risk of staying here.

Grey chuckled seeing Klausʼ reaction.

”Since I already have the Fourth and Fifth Prince under control, why donʼt you guys lead their armies into battle?”

Klaus and Reynolds looked at each others with a smile, it was as if this was what they were waiting for.
