Swoosh! Bam!
Grey, who suddenly disappeared soon appeared in front of the Wind Elentalist, he struck out a blow that was covered with blue flas.
Crash! Bang!
The Wind Elentalist was unable to block the attack which struck him cleanly on his chest. He was sent flying, crashing into the ground, he bounced off once before hitting a boulder almost one hundred and fifty ters away from his previous location.
Grey was still in a punching position, with his right fist outstretched.
The battle ceased, neither the people fighting against Grey nor the people watching could figure out what just happened. One minute Grey was barely dodging attacks, the next minute he suddenly vanished and appeared close to the Wind Elentalist. The Wind Elentalist in turn was sent flying, for over a hundred ters!
How could that happen in the midst of such coordinated attacks from the group of four?
"Wha… what just happened?" The Earth Elentalist asked, stunned.
If Grey were to continue his attacks right now, then killing this group would be easy due to them presently losing focus.
The Lightning Elentalist charged to where the Wind Elentalist was lying, and on getting there, his expression changed drastically.
Blood could be seen gushing out of the mouth of the Wind Elentalist, and his chest seed to have caved in. The injury on his chest wasn't bleeding as a result of suffering from burns.
Cough! Cough!
The Wind Elentalist coughed out heavily, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His eyes soon rolled to the back, fainting from the pain.
"Oh, he survived. Looks like he managed to protect his vitals, a sha," Grey shook his head when he noticed the Wind Elentalist was still alive.
Given the precision of his attack, he was almost certain that the Wind Elentalist would end up dead. But the Wind Elentalist seed to have acted quickly, not trying to block the attack but instead, protecting his vitals to make sure he didn't suffer injuries that might kill him.
'I should take note of this in case I'm ever in a situation like this,' Grey thought to himself.
This showed how quickly the Wind Elentalist is able to access a situation and co up with a good decision. Most people would try to block or evade the attack, but he didn't since he knew blocking or evading it was impossible from that range.
Jonas and the young lady who were watching from the city gate were dumbfounded by Grey's insane speed. He was literally the fastest person under the Overlord Plane that they had seen. They didn't even think there was anyone in the Origin Plane who could even catch up to him.
With such speed, would anyone at the sa stage be able to do anything to him? The answer was no.
Jonas shook his head wryly, luckily he quickly killed the thought of comparing himself to Grey, or he might've had a breakdown with what just happened.
How could anyone compare themselves to such a monster? It was no different than saying they could defeat soone in the Overlord Plane while still being in the Origin Plane.
"Is he really in the Origin Plane?" The young lady couldn't help but ask.
She had seen geniuses in the Origin Plane, she was even standing next to one, but compared to Grey, Jonas was like a star in the presence of a moon. How could the difference between people be so huge?
What she found more frustrating was that in the presence of others in the Origin Plane, Jonas was above most of them.
"Yeah, I don't think he has broken through to the Overlord Plane yet," Jonas replied while nodding.
"He's fast," The young lady blurted out unconsciously.
"Yeah, very fast," Jonas concurred with her.
It wasn't sothing anyone could argue anyway.
They weren't the only ones speaking about Grey's speed and strength. Most of the people in the crowd were not only speaking about this, but they were also trying to guess his identity.
Nurous people co to Lapis City, and because of the auctions held here, so very famous people tend to co from all over the place.
So people guessed he must be from the Royal Academy, while others thought he was a senior to Jonas, that was why he stepped in to help.
All in all, they were all talking about the sa person, Grey.
….
"You… I'll kill you!" The Earth Elentalist instantly lost it when he saw the Wind Elentalist lying on the ground, bloodied from Grey's attack.
He charged towards Grey while making multiple earth spears, sending them towards him.
Swoosh! Boom! Bam!
Grey easily dodged all the attacks while sending out attacks of his own.
The Earth Elentalist managed to block the first two, but the third flaming arrow broke through his defense, plunging into his shoulder.
"Ah!" He scread out in pain, holding onto the arm that for so reason the fire arrow didn't die down, instead, he stayed on as if it was a real arrow.
The Earth Elentalist bore the pain and dragged the arrow out of his shoulder, dropping it to the ground.
The arrow died down the mont it hit the ground, to the frustration of the Earth Elentalist.
"Retreat!" The Lightning Elentalist was the one who gave the order this ti.
After saying this, he didn't even stay behind to see if they were following the order, he picked up the Wind Elentalist and charged towards the city gate.
He was scared that Grey might target them since the Wind Elentalist was already hurt.
Unexpectedly, Grey didn't even make any attempts to attack them. He focused his attacks on the Earth Elentalist who stupidly tried attacking him even after he was hit by the fire arrow.
Boom! Bam! Bang!
Grey continued exchanging blows with him easily beating him up.
He exploded out with an attack that sent the Earth Elentalist flying.
The direction the Earth Elentalist faced was surprisingly the city gate.
"Damn it, wrong direction," Grey said before chasing after the Earth Elentalist who was still flying mid-air.
Just as the Earth Elentalist was about to get to the city gate, Jonas stepped out from the city and attacked with a huge sea of flas.
The flas soon got to where the Earth Elentalist was and just before it engulfed him, a silver light flashed and the Earth Elentalist disappeared, appearing inside the city alongside the Lightning Elentalist.
"What are you people doing? He just attacked while in the city!" The Lightning Elentalist turned to the guards at the gate and yelled.
"He's not in the city," The guard answered before turning to look in another direction, not bothering with the Lightning Elentalist anymore.
"How…"
"He's not in the city, look," The Water Elentalist pointed at where Jonas was standing, and it was just like the guard said, he wasn't in the city.
Jonas was just two steps outside the city gate, so there was no way he broke the rules of the city.
Grey quickly appeared before Jonas who had already withdrawn the sea of fire.
"*Sigh* I completely forgot about this direction," He said while shaking his head ruefully.
"It's okay, at least two of them are seriously wounded," Jonas replied.
"Yeah, that's a plus I guess," Grey said with a shrug.
He would normally want to kill these people, but since they had already entered the city, then he would find a way to do it later.
'I should've used the darkness elent to corrode their insides.' Grey thought, still feeling bad that he was unable to kill the group.
Seeing how disappointed Grey seed to be, Jonas didn't know how to feel. These were the sa four people that were on the verge of killing him, against Grey, they had to run for their lives, yet he was disappointed he was unable to kill anyone of them.
"Let's head in," Jonas said, inviting Grey inside the city.
"Sure," Grey replied before following behind Jonas.
The people who were gathered outside the city gate soon started going in their respective directions, the ones who wanted to enter the city, faced the city gate while the ones who wanted to leave went in the other direction.
When Grey got to where the Earth Elentalist was lying, he looked at him for so ti while shaking his head repeatedly and muttering the word, 'A Sha'.
The Earth Elentalist was still conscious, unlike the Wind Elentalist, so on seeing Grey mocking him in this manner, he lost his temper. But unfortunately, he was unable to stand up since when he was fighting with Grey, Grey used arrows to hit each of his limbs.
"I'll get you next ti," He uttered with much difficulty.
"Heh! If not for your friends, you'd be dead already," Grey remarked before walking away with Jonas.
The Earth Elentalist clenched his fist tightly, but he couldn't do anything since there was no way he could stand, much less attack Grey.
The young lady looked at Grey in awe, his personality was completely different compared to others.
She chased after them to catch up with Jonas, holding onto his hand as they walked further into the city.
The city was busy, even more so than the Capital City. Grey guessed it had to do with the location of this place, and also the frequent auctions that take place.
Most people would be able to find what they're searching for if they co here.. So were just like Grey, hoping to find what they were searching for.
