The tension in the Hall got to its peak as Grey started walking in the direction of the Tekik Family, however after getting a few steps close, he paused.
He turned to look outside the Hall, an Old man could be seen walking towards the Hall with staggered steps, it was almost as if he would fall if touched by anyone. Grey's expression wasn't good as he saw the Old man.
"My friend, you're here." The Head of the Tekik Family laughed in delight at the appearance of this Old man.
Grey smiled when he saw this and went back to his seat. He didn't show any signs of being bothered with the arrival of this Old man.
The Head of the Tekik Family looked at Grey and let out a small grunt.
'I'll like to see if you can act in the sa cocky manner.' He thought before moving his attention to the Old man who had walked into the Hall.
"Hmm, I sll death. What's happening?" The Old man asked as he walked into the Hall.
"I've been having so troubles from my little friend over there." The Head of the Tekik Family explained.
"Oh, such a young genius. You must not be from this world, correct?" The Old man asked.
Grey looked at the Old man and declined to reply, he gave a smile and looked at the Head of the Tekik Family again, "Is he here to help you out with the compensation?"
The Head of the Tekik Family felt like a thorn was piercing his skin when he heard Grey's words. After so ti he looked at the Old man who nodded to him. That was the signal he was waiting for. He had been communicating with the Old man, trying to know if the Old man could deal with Grey.
The Old man was able to sense Grey's cultivation stage and realized he was within his expectations. He was two stages ahead of Grey, and was very confident in his abilities, naturally.
Although Grey was hiding his cultivation stage, the Old man had his ways of figuring it out.
"Boy, I don't think you understand your current predicant." The Old man said as he walked closer to Grey.
"I think you're the one who has all this ssed up." Grey's reply was calm as always, he looked at the Old man and said, "If you're here to help him out with the chaos stones, then do so."
Grey paused and his eyes turned cold, "However, if you're here to accompany your friend in a death wish, I'll naturally satisfy your wishes."
The confidence in Grey's tone was evident for all to see. They couldn't believe even when he was outnumbered, he was still speaking with such confidence.
The Old man chuckled, "Cocky. The satisfaction I get after breaking people like you is exquisite."
The Old man was not bothered with how Grey was speaking. He felt Grey was only saying this due to his nature. Geniuses of Grey's caliber will always have that confidence and invincibility about them. However, in most cases, these attributes which make them unparalleled geniuses end up causing their deaths.
A normal person would retreat when faced against two people in the Elental Venerable Plane, especially when one of them is stronger. But geniuses like Grey would not back down even in front of five opponents stronger, much less just one.
The Old man had fought more battles than Grey could ever think of, well, so he thought.
The Head of the Tekik Family would've thought the sa, but after seeing Grey's ruthlessness, he didn't dare to underestimate Grey. At most, he'll just take it that Grey was a brutal fellow and had killed a lot of people.
The ease at which Grey kills people is sothing that amazed him.
Grey looked at the duo who sowhat surrounded him.
Void jumped off his shoulder and went over to et Cori. The bunny leader did the sa. They were not going to get involved with this battle. After hanging around with Grey, the bunny leader had co to know that against multiple opponents, he doesn't seem to have any issues.
Of all of them acquainted with Grey, Cori was the only one who had a worried expression. She didn't know if Grey would be able to fight off these people. Other than that, the other thing she was thinking about was the question the man asked Grey.
'What did he an by not from this world?' She was a bit confused about this.
She looked at Grey's back view, 'Is he from another world?'
She had encountered people who were not from their region, but no one had ever said they were not from their world.
'Are there other worlds?' I think you should take a look at
More questions rang in her head.
Grey couldn't care about what Cori was thinking at the mont. He was more concerned about the Old man who was two stages above him. He didn't know the strength of the Old man, so he didn't know how tough it would be to fight against the man.
If it were soone in the Aurora Continent, he would have a hundred percent confidence in defeating them, but one has to know that the fighting style of so of the races that have grown here are different compared to that of those from the Aurora Continent.
He looked at the Head of the Tekik Family with a serious expression, "Are you not going to compensate us?"
The Head of the Tekik Family looked at the Old man, who nodded once again, and replied, "Kid, leave now and I'll forget about this matter."
After a few seconds he added, "Of course, you're going to have to drop the things you stole from , and compensate my good old friend here who ca because of you."
"Oh, I'm the reason he ca?" Grey wore a surprised look.
To be honest, he didn't know when the Head of the Tekik Family contacted the Old man, if he knew, he would've ended this from the get go and not let it beco any longer. With the appearance of this Old man, he didn't know what might happen.
However, he was still very confident that he would be able to defeat them. Even if not alone, but with Void and the bunny leader present, he was fine.
"Kid, stop pretending like you do not know why I'm here. Drop the things, as well as the girl." The Old man said.
Grey's eyes turned cold when he heard him say he should leave Cori behind.
"Hmph! Old man, don't test my patience. Pay up or suffer the consequences." He slamd his palm on the earthen chair he created before and it shattered to dust.
"I guess words can't get through to you." The Head of the Tekik Family said and charged at Grey.
The Old man moved at the sa ti as well.
Just when they got within twenty ters of Grey, the scenery changed.
Grey was still standing in their middle, but they were standing outside the Town, in the forest around it.
"Since I'm such a nice person, I don't want others to get hurt because of this fight." Grey said with a smile.
"But you brought my family here!" The Head of the Tekik Family scolded angrily.
"Oh, they're not part of the people I don't want to hurt. I very much want them dead." Grey's reply was straightforward.
The Old man and the Head of the Tekik Family rushed at Grey. One of them was covered in flas, while the other had winds surrounding him.
Grey's eyes were cold, his skin turned into pale blue scales, and even the shape of his pupils changed slightly. Not just that, but his physical appearance enlarged by a lot.
Compared to how he previously looked, now, he was over two and a half ters tall, and had a bulky body. His usual appearance was one of a moderate body, but well built.
The Old man and the Head of the Tekik Family paused, Cori, who was also watching from the side, couldn't help but exclaim.
"He's a Beastman!"
This was the sa thought in the heads of the Old man and the Head of the Tekik Family. They knew of a particular race that could showcase attributes like these. Transforming from normal people and having attributes related to Beasts.
If Grey was a Beastman, then they had very little chances in defeating him.
"What's a Beastman?" Grey's thickened voice brought them back to reality.
They soon understood that he didn't know what they were talking about.
He couldn't be blad for this due to the fact that he only developed these abilities a few days back. He didn't know he would be able to even do sothing like this, but while experinting on a few things, he noticed this was possible. One of the things he got from increasing his size is that, his strength, speed, and defense increased exponentially.
