Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 1722: Raise The Shields!

Grey looked at the bird that was being created and his figure floated to the sky, he looked down at the duo as he spoke, ”Looks like Iʼll have to expend a little more effort than I expected.”

He spread out both hands, and the temperature in the arena dropped, with snow falling across the platform, and even in some areas across the arena.

The eyes of Lord Dante bulged out when he realized what was happening. Grey was using a domain, the fact that he could use a domain wasnʼt the shocking thing, the shocking thing is that this particular domain is of the ice attribute, which belonged to the water element.

”Five elements?” Lord Dante, who had been standing since he laid eyes on Greyʼs fusion orb fell to his seat, his eyes shaking from shock.

Grey had five elements, and of the five elements, he had awakened his domain in four of them. The thought of this alone was improbable. When he saw Grey use three domains out of four elements, he was already more than impressed by him. Yet, Grey was still not using all his abilities then.

While Lord Dante was finding it hard to believe, Faction Leader Bertram had a huge smile on his face, but internally, he was just as shocked as everyone else. Although theyʼve known Grey for a longer period, Grey spends very little time staying in the Faction, and given his private nature, there was no way they could know how many domains he had awakened.

Faction Leader Bertram didnʼt show any signs of shock in his face so as not to let Lord Dante know.

”I see why you were so confident.” Lord Dante gave a wry smile, Grey hadnʼt even won the battle yet, but he had already given up, ”You tricked me.”

Faction Leader Bertram coughed with a hint of embarrassment and said, ”Lord Dante, I didnʼt trick you, I only informed you of the only thing that could get him to battle.”

Lord Dante wanted to refute Faction Leader Bertramʼs words, but when he thought about it, he was the one who offered to give Grey a darkness elemental treasure if he won. If he had told them that he didnʼt have any, then probably wouldnʼt have battled. In the end, it was his mistake for underestimating Greyʼs ability and what he could achieve.

The crowd were once again thrown off their feet by Greyʼs abilities. Five elements, four domains. There were a few people in the Venerable Plane who were Dual Elementalists and hadnʼt even been able to awaken one domain. When these people saw Grey using four domains out of his five elements, they felt like the world was unfair. Theyʼve tried everything they could, yet they couldnʼt awaken one, yet Grey had already awakened four domains while still being so young.

Most Dual Elementalists who have awakened both domains are usually hundreds of years old, and those with three domains are thousands of years old. There are very few records about people with more than three domains. Of course there have been a few people with even four domains, but these were people who existed millenniums ago. Thereʼs no known record of any currently alive with four domains. Hence the reason for the shock among not just these youths, but even elders such Lord Dante and the rest of the Elders from both the Pyrmond and Pyro Faction.

Vale and his companion were dumbfounded, but unlike the other spectators, they didnʼt have that luxury. Because in front of them, a large multicolored orb was being created, and in this orb, there was one more color, making it a five colored orb.

Grey was making a five colored fusion orb, and he needed the extreme cold from his ice domain to help him keep the orb stable for a longer period of time.

The five colored fusion orb appeared in Greyʼs hand, and the aura it released made the hearts of everyone palpitate.

Ezekiel, the Eighth stage Sovereign who escorted Grey and his Faction members into the Pyro World felt his heart start to race the second he sensed the aura coming from the orb in Greyʼs palm. He could sense a great sense of threat from the orb which was just around the size of a human fist. If that orb was sent his way, heʼll not be able to survive it, no matter what defenses he could conjure. Only if he has the defensive talisman of at least a Peak Ninth stage will he be confident that he can survive this, maybe even unscathed.

Lord Dante rose up, this time, his expression was very serious. He quickly communicated with the Elder in charge of the platform, letting him know that he should be prepared to save either of the trio at a momentʼs notice.

Vale and his companion looked at the orb before them, and for the first time, Vale felt true despair, he could tell that their current attack power can rival that of a peak Eighth stage Sovereign, bordering the Ninth stage, but Greyʼs attack is well in the Ninth stage.

Grey looked down at the duo, not making a single sound, the orb in his hand was showing slight signs of instability, but it was still within his control.

ʼHmm, a six colored orb will soon be within my control. I wonder how strong that will be if I make it with my current cultivation level.ʼ Grey thought to himself as he let go of the fusion orb.

The fusion orb fell in the direction of the big bird Vale and his companion created together. He wanted to see if his five colored fusion orb is stronger than this. Well, heʼs quite confident that thereʼs a good chance that heʼll be the one who would come out victorious.

The fusion orb touched the bird, and unlike the expected first reaction, there was no explosion. Rather, the fusion orb sank into the head of the bird, and then the duo vanished.

”Now! Raise the shields!” Lord Dante gave out orders.
