The next day Grey arrived early, the reason for this was that he wanted to see the human, regarded as J, fight. According to what he heard, this person always fights very early and leaves as soon as he's done with his battles.
When he arrived at the place, he looked at the arena and saw a shockingly familiar figure, a figure he never expected to even see in the Aurora Continent, much less the Chaos Battlefield.
'Jonas.' He said to himself.
Seeing his expression, the bunny leader and Void knew that he recognized the person fighting on the stage.
'Who's that?' The bunny leader asked.
"He's Jonas, we are technically from the sa City." Grey explained.
'Wow, one City producing two geniuses, even if he's not on your level, he's still well above others at his level.' The bunny leader accessed Jonas as he watched him fight.
Jonas could be classified as a tier above even Grey's friends when it ca to fighting those in the sa stage or above. Klaus, Reynolds, Alice, and even Ellis wouldn't have any issues with fighting those two stages above them, the only thing is that they wouldn't be able to dominate them as much as Jonas was doing right now.
The bunny leader had seen them in action and knew they were special, but Jonas had sothing more, sothing that placed him above others, with the exception of Grey.
Grey tilted his head and looked at the figure battling on stage, he was just as fierce as he used to be. He couldn't help but think of how their stories started. Both were from the small Red City, each entering a top Academy, however, one's path only climbed up while the other, although showing so prospects, stagnated due to making the wrong choices.
However, Jonas' story changed after the trip to the Trial Land, he beca reborn after receiving an inheritance from a top expert. Now, he was advancing at a massive speed. He was presently in the Sixth stage of the Elental Venerable Plane.
Grey already thought his speed was insane, Jonas seed to be even faster than he was.
Jonas quickly finished his battles and as he was walking out, he seed to look into the crowd, searching for sothing.
He had seen Grey's na on the board, not just seen, but he had heard of the na. There was only one Grey he knew could cause such a commotion, and it was the sa person that he knew from Red City, he didn't believe there would be another Grey that would be just as heaven-defying as the one from Red City.
He had traveled and knew there were places far better than the Azure Continent. Nevertheless, he had never seen anyone on par with that fellow, the one who wasn't able to awaken his elent during his first test.
He didn't see Grey's figure, but he decided to wait. Since Grey ca here, he didn't believe he would leave imdiately after completing the five battles. He would most likely want to get one of the top rewards, just like himself.
Ti passed and two hours later, the figure he was waiting for appeared. It was like a surreal dream when he saw Grey step onto the stage. Even with a mask on, he knew for a fact that the person standing there was the person he thought.
Everything was confird when Grey was able to casually defeat his first opponent. However, his pupils showed so strange glow, he recalled Grey sohow miraculously got the fire elent in the Trial Land, even though he was the one who got the inheritance, but he didn't think about it for too long at that ti since there was a chance that Grey might have gotten one too. However, Grey was currently using the space elent as well.
'How's this possible? He didn't awaken any elents at first. Then later awakened two, managed to get the fire elent from a top expert, and now the space elent?' Jonas felt his head ache.
This was out of his expectations. But with all the things he had seen, he knew there was definitely a reason Grey was able to get all these. He had never heard of anyone getting another elent after their original elent was checked. Unless… they could hide it from the rock.
A thought suddenly struck him, if Grey could hide his elent from the rock, maybe for fear of being hunted, then that should settle it. He recalled how Grey was hunted down just by getting a treasure from the Trial Land.
Grey knew nothing about what he was thinking, nor did he care. He quickly made short work of his opponents before leaving the stage. He didn't know if Jonas was still around, and he didn't have the zeal to search for him. They aren't enemies, but they can't be called friends as well.
When he stepped out, he saw Void, the bunny leader, and another silhouette waiting for him.
"I knew it was you when I heard of your na." Jonas said when Grey stepped out.
"It's been a while, Jonas." Grey stretched out his hand.
Jonas shook his hand before they walked out of the place together. When the crowd saw them leaving together, and how they interacted, they knew they must know each other.
Just thinking of the fact that two geniuses of this caliber are friends annoyed most of them.
Grey didn't really care about all these. He followed Jonas back to where he was staying.
After settling down he asked, "How did you end up here?"
"Well… it's a long story." Jonas offered Grey a cup of tea.
Grey took it and nodded for him to go on with his story, it wasn't like he had anywhere to go, anyway.
Jonas went on to tell him of how he was fortunate to leave the place thanks to a tear that appeared close to him. It was out of his control as he was drawn into the tear.
