"Why?" Sylvia didn't believe didn't want to help out.
"I already have so much attention on , I don't want to bring more to ." Grey replied.
If he were to involve himself with soone important, just like Sylvia's words, then it would put him in even more danger. It's well known that the necromancers have people in top places, if they were to find out that he could not only remove the mark, but could also use it to track people down, it would make them chase him with all they have.
He hated being chased, this was why he wanted to kill so many Gnos in the first place, if he were to be chased relentlessly again, he would lose it.
"But, don't you want to save a life?"
"Yeah, I want to save mine. You know of the kill order in my head from the Gnos?"
"Yes, but it doesn't an you can't help this person."
"Is the person dead?"
"No."
"Dying?"
"No."
"I'm sorry I can't exchange my life for anyone else, except well, maybe my mother."
"What about your friends?" Klaus asked from the side.
"Shut up."
Both Grey and Alice turned to Klaus, shutting him up.
"You know I wouldn't mind helping, but this will only put in more danger. I can't make myself bait so others would be able to catch these necromancers." Grey refused to help out.
"You're not making yourself bait." Sylvia tried to convince him.
"Okay, how well do you know this person and the people around them?" Grey asked.
Sylvia paused and then got the reason Grey refused to help out. There were a few people that wouldn't mind selling Grey out just to get so benefits, even from Gnos. If Grey were to help remove the mark and these people hear about it, once the news reaches the Gnos or necromancers, it would be over for Grey. Even with such a powerful father, he wouldn't be able to save himself.
Sylvia sighed, the little hope that ca to her died instantly when she realized that Grey helping her would put him in a dangerous situation.
"My father would like to have a word with you, there have been so issues in the secret realm after you left."
"Oh! You know what, I don't mind entering the secret realm. I might be able to rattle the Gnos once again." Grey said with a playful smile.
"You've rattled them enough." Sylvia said with a straight face.
When she heard of what Grey did inside the secret realm, she couldn't believe her ears. However, she didn't think that was enough reason for the Gnos to send out a kill order for him. It was said that he almost killed one of the sons of the Emperor.
The Emperor has other sons, so there was no way he would want to kill Grey at all costs. Of course they were pissed with what he did, but promising such rewards for a Sage Plane Elentalist was a little too much.
"I'm coming."
Grey left with Sylvia, leaving his friends behind.
"He must have made the place a living hell for the others." Klaus chuckled.
"Well, after always being dominant, when soone like him shows up and single-handedly forces all of them to compromise, it is easy to guess how they will retaliate, especially after he's gone." Alice said.
"Hopefully he's not in any trouble." Reynolds comnted.
"I don't think he is, if not, they wouldn't have called him over so civilly." Klaus squinted his eyes, he took a seat and picked up one of the fruits on the table, eating carefreely.
….
In the Burchard Manor.
Grey was taken to the Hall.
When he entered, a few people were present. Seeing Sylvia walk in with Grey, they were a bit surprised.
When they all sensed Grey's cultivation stage, they didn't know how to react. They all had a deep impression of Grey, after all, he made it possible for them to take the secret realm back from the hands of the Nether Faction.
At the first ti they saw him, he was only a Fifth or Sixth stage Sage Plane Elentalist. It has been around two or close to three years now, yet, he has already gone from the Fifth stage of the Sage Plane to the Ninth stage of the Elental Venerable Plane, catching up with a few Elders present. Even Sylvia who they thought was a shocking genius wasn't on the sa level as Grey.
The young man who led the group for the competition, Sylvia's younger brother, was present. When he saw Grey, he didn't know what to say. He was at the Peak at the ti of the competition, now, he was only in the Third stage of the Elental Venerable Plane, and he was already advancing pretty quickly, yet, it still wasn't enough.
His advancent speed was a joke in the presence of Grey.
"Hello, I heard you wanted to have a word with ." Grey bowed to the Head of the Burchard Family to show his respect.
"There's no need for the formalities. I need your assistance." Sylvia's father said.
"With what?" Grey raised a brow.
"Can you hold the fort in the secret realm for a week? My son needs to get sothing, but unfortunately, the Gnos are more aggressive, since you left." Sylvia's father explained.
"Sorry about that." Grey apologized.
humans. Unfortunately, he was too shortsighted.
A smile appeared on his face, "I don't mind holding the fort for a To be honest, he didn't think about this possibility. He felt since he was no longer there, the Gnos would not bother with the other humans. Unfortunately, he was too shortsighted.
A smile appeared on his face, "I don't mind holding the fort for a week. I have so friends who ca with that can help do that."
"Alright, you can head there now." Sylvia's father didn't expect Grey would agree to it.
He sensed Grey's strength when he entered the manor and was amazed. When soone ca to call Sylvia, the idea struck him, to get Grey to help his son. There's a special treasure there his son needed, but there was no way for him to get it with his weak strength.
The people at the Peak of the Elental Venerable Plane he sent there were not able to stop the Gnos, so they were forced to leave.
Grey was about to turn when Sylvia's father recalled sothing.
"Oh, I think your old friend is there too. Rember the prince you humiliated?"
When Grey heard this, he smiled in delight. He never thought he would go to this secret realm again, but since the opportunity presented itself, he wouldn't seat back.
Grey went back to tell the others of their trip to the secret realm. Klaus was excited when he heard this. He was already feeling that the Middle Continent was too boring, now, he has the opportunity to accompany Grey in accomplishing sothing great.
Reynolds and Alice were also a little intrigued at the idea of getting into the secret realm. Unlike Grey, they hadn't been into too many secret realms.
Grey was from a top Family, and he had also built ties with a few, so he was more fortunate when compared to others.
Before they left, Sylvia told Grey that a few more people would be going in with them. According to what she knew, the Faction Leader of the number one Faction wanted to send his student into the secret realm for her safety.
Grey found the timing quite suspicious. But then again, he knew that the Burchard Family allowed people to enter the place, and maybe they had denied others entry since it was too dangerous, but with Grey and his friends attracting all the attention, it was ti for the others to go in and search for opportunities.
They left the Burchard Manor the next day. When they got to the portal into the secret realm, Grey realized it was the sa Elder that was protecting it.
"Uncle." He bowed slightly.
"Kid, you sure are trouble. Make sure you don't die in there." The Elder said.
He is the one in charge and knew just how many of their talents had died inside there. He couldn't bla Grey since during the ti he was there, he helped them groom a few top talents since they were able to roam freely.
"Don't worry, Uncle. I'll be fine." Grey smiled.
"You should head in, the other group is coming now."
"Hmm." Grey nodded and took a step towards the portal, before entering, he turned to look back and saw a large Magical Beast flying over. Even though he hadn't seen a Dragon all too much, he was able to discern that the Magical Beast approaching was a Dragon.
They vanished into the portal.
Sylvia's brother would be going in with the other group. His group didn't have to put themselves in a tough position. From what he has heard, he could tell just how dangerous it was to travel with Grey in this secret realm.
