Affinity: Chaos

"I said stay." Grey attacked the group, but the man who was told to stop him snorted and jumped in front of the attack.

"Stop overestimating your… eh!" The man was in the middle of saying something when he paused, to the surprise of everyone, his figure shot straight at the group.

The other two at the Peak of the Sage Plane hurriedly tried to block him. They were forced back, but they managed to stop him.

The man stood upright, but blood started to drip from the side of his mouth. He cleaned it and looked at Grey with a shocked expression.

"Do you still think I'm overestimating myself?" Grey asked with a mocking tone.

The man who was attacked didn't reply, neither did the other two at the Peak. They knew they had made an error in their judgement and Grey wasn't someone that one of them could defeat, only when they teamed up would they be able to fight against him.

"You seven should go ahead, we'll take care of him." The leader of the group said to the others.

They nodded their heads and tried to take a step forward. Just as the foot of the first person was about to touch the ground, Grey attacked once again.

"I admit that you're strong, but do you really think you can keep all of us here?" The leader of the group moved out with the other two as they blocked Grey's attack.

Even though they did, they were still pushed back.

Compared to young geniuses at the Peak of the Sage Plane, these men were still lacking. However, what they lacked in strength, they made up for it in experience.

Noticing that Grey's attack was well over their level, all three of them didn't try to block the attack head-on, rather, they tried to deflect it. With this, the impact on them was reduced significantly.

Grey didn't say anything, but he still made sure that no one left the place.

"Fine, since you want to fight against all of us, then you'll get your wish." The leader said.

All it took was a single attack, and he knew even three of them might not be Grey's match, even if they were, it was safer with more people around.

The others stood behind the three men, waiting for orders.

"It's nice that you're quite obedient. Alright, we should begin." Grey was a little talkative, unlike his usual self.

The men exchanged glances before rushing at Grey.

Of the three, two were Water Elementalists while the last one was a Fire Elementalist. Grey stood on the same spot, prepared to attack.

He took a step forward, but he noticed that the ground opened up and his leg fell down. He didn't let this stop him, with a quick movement, he vanished and appeared in another location, attacking them with his space element.

The two Water Elementalists blocked his attacks while the Fire Elementalist focused on attacking.

Grey was not bothered by the attack, given the people he had fought with in the secret realm, an attack of this strength was not even enough to make him panic.

The others in the Late stages also attacked, two of them were Fire Elementalists as well, and they added their attacks to the Fire Elementalist at the Peak's attack, making its strength increase. At this moment, Grey started to feel some pressure from the attack.

The other two blocked each of his attacks, their ice abilities were strong, and they always enforced each others' defenses, making it harder for Grey's attack to break through.

Grey stopped attacking with only his fire element, with a simple flick of his hand, a terrifying orb shot at them. The ice that had been standing strong against his previous attacks instantly broke apart and the building exploded out, forcing the group back.

Grey moved forward and they all appeared in the courtyard where they were previously situated. He spread his hands and inscriptions appeared in the sky, attacking those on the ground.

The trio at the Peak had an easy time blocking the attack, those in the Late stages struggled, but they still managed to block it, however, those in the Mid stages found it difficult to block it, and with each attack, the impact on them was getting stronger and stronger.

The trio at the Peak attacked simultaneously.

Grey dodged the attack before sending out a lightning bolt. The lightning bolt was not targeted at the trio, instead, it was aimed at those who were in the Mid stages.

The trio at the Peak knew what Grey wanted to do, so they rushed to block it.

While they were doing this, the trio in the Late stages started to attack Grey.

Grey acted like he didn't see the attack and his figure flew into the sky. His large-scale attack lightning rain descended on them, not just that, but meteor descent as well.

….

Outside the compound, the loud explosions rang across the entire town, but none of the impact passed the compound, Grey made sure of this. It was quite easy for two Sage Plane Elementalists to destroy a small town like this when fighting, so he made an array, well, modified the array that was placed in the building to help take most of the impact.

"They're so strong."

"Who do you think is fighting?"

"How would I know, that place was occupied by those guys, so it's most likely an enemy of theirs."

"I wish I was this powerful, I would've kicked them out of the town a long time ago."

"Shut up! Don't let them hear you, what if they win?"

"Oh, I forgot about that. I assumed they would lose since the person dared to attack them, then they would be as powerful as they are, or even more powerful."

Different conversations broke out due to the fight, luckily, none of the impacts of the battle had managed to escape the place.
