Chapter 1046 Where Are They?

They had been watching Grey since the start of the battle, and when the young man who wanted to assassinate him appeared, they felt he would make a mistake, but to their surprise, he didnʼt.

Sensing the young man wasnʼt as hard as sensing the elemental particle the old man placed on the body of the others. The fact that Grey would be cautious in such a state showed that he was not a newbie.

He must be used to planning, and his decision-making was also top-notch.

….

While Lucas and Martha were shocked by Greyʼs insane abilities, Grey was taking advantage of his chances.

After killing all four at the Peak, he was left with only the two Earth Elementalists. The old man was beyond depressed, he was devastated. From what has happened, he knew his chances of surviving this were below five percent. Grey was just too strong.

The old man looked at the other Earth Elementalist, ”Weʼll have to fight with our lives on the line, technically, it is on the line.”

The other Earth Elementalist looked at the old man, he also heard the voice of the Elemental Sovereign who gave them orders, if they dared to withdraw, then they would most likely die. What was worse was that the Sovereign didnʼt give them a chance, threatening them with death.

Grey would kill them, and the Sovereign would also kill them, against Grey, thereʼs a chance of survival, against the Sovereign, there were zero chances of survival. Even an Elemental Venerable was at the mercy of a Peak Elemental Sovereign, much less a Peak Sage Plane Elementalist.

Grey didnʼt know that they were threatened by an Elemental Sovereign, nor did he care. The people he killed were people who had killed multiple people from the Dawson Family, some had even killed Peak Sage Plane Elementalists, so even if they died, it had nothing to do with him.

Seeing the two Earth Elementalist, he said, ”Just give up, youʼre no match for me.”

The Earth Elementalists gritted their teeth but still tried to attack Grey. They were on a sure-death path, so why not try to live a little longer?

Those at the Peak of the Sage Plane tend to always want to live longer, especially when said person was as old as the old man.

They attacked Grey, their life and death on the line.

….

Some minutes later.

”Kid, youʼre stronger than I thought.” The old man from the Dawson Family said.

Grey, his father, his mother, and his grandfather were standing on the city wall.

With Greyʼs appearance, any battle below the Elemental Venerable Plane was futile. The leader of the war soon told his people to hold back, if they hadnʼt, then humanity wouldʼve wiped them out. Well, more like Grey single-handedly taking care of it, but it wasnʼt appropriate.

The Sovereign in charge of the battle called for his army to withdraw after Grey killed all his opponents. The old men at the Peak of the Sage Plane didnʼt give him an easy time, nor did the other Earth Elementalist, but he managed to kill them even before the other Peak Sage Plane Elementalists from the Dawson Family could free themselves, going out to help them.

”I was lucky.” Grey said humbly.

He wouldnʼt try to act all high and mighty in front of his parents and grandfather.

”No need to be too modest, at your age, youʼre unparalleled.” The old man said.

Grey smiled but didnʼt reply. To him, he felt he was only so-so. If he encountered an Elemental Venerable in the Mid or Late stages, he would die without a doubt. This was why he didnʼt feel happy about his achievement.

? ”Letʼs head back. Itʼs best if you go to the realm, I have some plans for you.” The old man said.

”Father, heʼs not going to take the position of the Family Head.” Lucas said straightforwardly.

”Do you think we have that time? Itʼll be a good thing if he can get to the Sovereign Plane, much less become the Family Head.” The old man said.

Lucas paused, not expecting this from his father, ”Oh that. You donʼt have to worry about him. Heʼll be fine.”

”Heʼs my grandson, donʼt think you have all the say about what he feels like doing.” The old man snorted.

”Kid, I have some opportunities for you, I wonder if you wish to accept this old manʼs proposal.” The old man turned to Grey.

”Grandfather, of course I will accept your request, but Iʼll have to meet up with my friends first.” Grey replied.

The old man paused for some time, he knew of Greyʼs friends, and so did Lucas and Martha.

”Alright, Iʼll be waiting for you in the Family manor. Donʼt come here any longer, itʼs too dangerous. Not just them, but others are still looking to take care of you.” The old man said.

”The Gnome race?” Grey asked, shocking the old man, Lucas, and Martha.

”How did you know about this?” The old man asked.

”I killed them, of course Iʼll know what they want to do.” Grey said.

The old man couldnʼt help but shake his head with a chuckle.

Grey was more intelligent than he thought. Not just that, but he was also well-informed and knew the subsequent actions to take. If others knew that an entire race that seemed stronger than humans were trying to kill him, they would most definitely freak out, but Grey was fine. In fact, he didnʼt seem to care about that.

”Your friends, where are they?” The old man asked.

They didnʼt know too much about Greyʼs friends and wanted Grey to tell them about them. If their strength were not up to the task, then he would send Grey to the secret realm, regardless of his decision.

He had heard of Klaus, Reynolds, and Alice, but he didnʼt know much about them. After all, just like Grey, they appeared from nowhere. So they didnʼt know too much about them.
