Chapter 1483 Canʼt Bear To See You Endure Such Torment

The man never expected Grey would move with such explosive speed, nor did he expect Grey to come towards him.

Anyone in Greyʼs position would be looking to escape from his clutches, yet Grey was not only trying to escape, but he was actively coming his way. The annoying thing is that due to his speed, thereʼs no way he could move away from the incoming Grey.

ʼIʼll prepare an attack before he can.ʼ

This was the only thought in his head. Grey didnʼt prepare and attack beforehand, so he had nothing to fear. As long as Grey paused to create an attack, he would be able to attack before Greyʼs able to do that.

Sovereignʼs can attack almost instantaneously, while Venerables are a little slower compared to them. Grey might be a Pseudo-sovereign, but he canʼt be as fast as the man.

The man who was waiting for Grey to use an elemental attack was given a rude awakening when he saw Greyʼs fist striking his chest. Grey was moving at a scary speed, being struck by a fist that was moving at such speed, even if Grey wasnʼt physically strong, the man would still break a few ribs from the attack.

The man noticed something strange happened, the blow was stronger than what he expected. As a matter of fact, he could sense a hole in his chest.

ʼWhatʼs happening?ʼ The man was confused. He couldnʼt comprehend the sharp pain he was feeling in his body.

Greyʼs fist passed through his chest and the bloodied arm was seen on the other side.

Grey stopped moving and the man was sent crashing into the trees on the ground. The manʼs body crashed on the ground for over five hundred meters, destroying all the trees that were in his path. Even a small hill was destroyed by the force at which the man crashed into it.

Grey stood in the air, looking at the result of his attack. A proud smile appeared on his face. This was one of his biggest secret weapons. No one expects an Elementalist to possess such a powerful physical body, so whenever he attacks them, heʼs always catching them off-guard. Before anyone realizes whatʼs happening, they were already placed at a disadvantage.

Grey only admired his work for a few seconds before he shot towards the man. He knew he didnʼt have the advantage of power over the man, and he could only use such explosiveness a few times. The man wouldnʼt fall for it again, so it was best to use this opportunity.

He arrived at the place the man crashed and to his surprise, he didnʼt find the man.

”Huh?” He raised a brow and his eyes widened.

The man was escaping underground. He never thought the man would escape after being struck by such an attack.

The man didnʼt want to fight with him again, but Grey felt the need to stop him. The reason for that was because he was a hundred percent certain he had the complete advantage over his opponent.

One of his trump cards was also his ability to create poison miasma in his body. On most occasions when heʼs fighting people stronger than he is, whenever he gets the opportunity to use his superior physique to attack them, he always pumps in as much essence as he can into their bodies. They usually donʼt realize it until a minute or so.

Grey hadnʼt used his miasma for a long while now and he had quite a good amount stored in his body. He offloaded almost everything into the body of the man. Even if he doesnʼt chase after the man, the man is finished. Thereʼs no way for him to recover from the poison miasma, and it would only take a few months before he dies.

Grey, being a good guy didnʼt want the man to go through such torture before he dies. He felt it was only right he helped the man, by killing him.

The man only managed to escape a few kilometers before his speed reduced. He came out of the ground and saw the hole in his chest. It wasnʼt healing, rather, it was covered by a black patch.

”Whatʼs this?”

Fear and confusion enveloped him. He didnʼt know what was happening, and how this thing was on his chest. At first, he thought it was from the ground, but after careful consideration, he knew thereʼs no way he could enter something like this without being aware of it. Unless…

”Impossible!”

”Right?” Grey appeared with a smile, he added, ”Iʼve always found this ability so fascinating.”

The man looked at him, understanding what he meant by his words. This was Greyʼs doing, and he seemed pleased with himself.

”You… what are you?” The man asked.

”Someone with a massive reward on my head. Capture me and get what youʼve always wanted.” Greyʼs reply was sarcastic.

The man sensed the strength leaving his body. He soon realized he was infected with.

”Miasma… but howʼs it possible?” He asked with a confused expression.

He had seen a few people that were stuck in miasma for a short time. They only survived due to not spending a long period of time there. The amount of miasma in his body was more than enough to kill at least two Sovereigns.

”How did you manage to get your hands on miasma? Can it be controlled?” The man was thinking straight and started asking questions.

”Itʼs a long story. I donʼt think you have such time on your hands.” Grey said with a thoughtful expression.

The manʼs expression changed when he heard this. He knew Grey was right, but he was finding it hard to accept.

There was silence in the place.

Grey broke the silence, ”Iʼm here to help you. Iʼll make sure you donʼt have to go through the torment of having to live with this only to die from it.”

”What do you mean?” The man asked.

”Simple.” Grey grinned, ”Iʼm going to kill you.”
