Affinity:Chaos

Thud!

The ice monster charging towards Grey slipped on the ice Klaus created and fell to the ground.

Just as it fell to the ground…

Pu-chi!

A small ice needle broke through the ice armor on the chest of the ice monster, going straight through the forehead of the old man in the middle.

The needle was so fast that no one got a good view of it, and due to its small size, the others didn't even notice that it had pierced through the head of the man in the chest region of the ice monster.

If one took a closer look at the forehead of the old man, then one would see a tiny spot covered in ice.

The old man was dead, his eyes still open.

Klaus naturally had plans of killing the man, even if the man were to sense the needle and move so it wouldn't hit his vitals, as long as the needle made contact, then it would be enough to immobilize the man.

With one person killed, the aura of the ice monster reduced significantly.

"How could this be?" The old man on the left leg asked, shocked.

They were able to immediately tell that the old man in the chest region was dead because of the change in the power of the ice monster. But they still couldn't understand how it happened.

One second the ice monster was slipping, and just as it got to the ground, the old man was dead. They didn't see Klaus making any other attacks, so how did it happen?

Klaus on the other hand was elated on seeing that the aura of the ice monster had decreased, this meant that he could take care of it.

"You old fogies think you can mess with me and go scot-free? Hehe, you're dead wrong!" He laughed and immediately attacked.

Not understanding how the first man died sent the two surviving old men into a panic. Everyone naturally had a fear of the unknown, and they were no exception.

Bang! Boom! Bam!

Klaus' attacks were wild and aggressive, he didn't want Grey to steal all the spotlight in this battle.

Grey was currently beating the hell out of the ice monster on his end, and the regeneration rate of the places damaged had reduced significantly. Even the glow on the ice armor that they created around the people in the ice monster had reduced as well.

Now, Grey was confident in being able to break apart the armor.

The battle went on for another five minutes or so.

Grey and Klaus were currently standing in front of sixteen people, well, fifteen since one of them was dead.

The men all looked drained, and almost all of them wore looks of horror, not believing that these two youngsters could defeat them, even when they used their ultimate technique.

Grey and Klaus weren't particularly happy that they defeated these people, it wasn't really something to be happy about. Had the elemental grades of these people been blue grade, then the chances of winning against them when they formed that ice monster would've been very slim.

Klaus could easily manhandle all of them here on his own due to his superior elemental grade. According to the people here, only two of them had blue elemental grades, while the others were either purple or orange.

Grey and Klaus were stunned since they hadn't seen anyone in the Origin Plane that had an orange elemental grade. Elemental grades are regarded like talent, they would usually determine how far an Elementalist could grow.

But these people were clearly born special, or maybe it had something to do with that odd rock in the town.

….

"What do we do to them now?" Klaus asked.

He had already killed one of them, and honestly, he didn't mind killing the rest of them. After all, they were enemies who wanted to sacrifice him to their Moon God. Even if he wouldn't want to kill, just the fact that they said they wanted to sacrifice him meant that they should be killed.

Thinking about it properly, there's a chance that this was not the first time they were doing something like this, sacrificing someone to their imaginary god.

"The usual," Grey replied nonchalantly.

He had the habit of killing people who tried to kill him, he didn't care who they were or what their intentions were. Since the person tried to kill him, then the person should naturally be prepared to also die.

Just as they prepared to attack.

"Stop!"

A scream came from behind them.

Turning around, they saw a group of people running towards them frantically. At the front of the group was the town chief, behind him were about ten to fifteen people.

"What do you people want?" Klaus asked with a cold look.

"Please, don't kill them. If they were to die, then our town would be in danger," The town chief begged as soon as he got close.

Some of the people here were the main powers of the town, if they died, then the town would be in grave danger. They had a ton of enemies who were eyeing their sacred rock, if news of almost half of their powerful Elementalists being killed were to spread out, then it would be bad news for them.

"Are you involved in this?" Grey asked, still wearing the same nonchalant expression.

The fact that the town chief came just as they were about to kill these people looked suspicious. But Grey was sure he wasn't in this area when they were fighting, so it was a little confusing.

"No," The chief replied hastily.

"Then how did you know we were here?" Klaus asked with a sneer.

Obviously, he didn't believe what the town chief was saying, and he couldn't be blamed, even Grey found it hard to believe.

"I sensed them using the technique, and from what happened before, I could tell they were coming after you two," The town chief said.

"Hmm, since you sensed them using it, why didn't you come earlier?" Grey asked.

"Be…"

"Simple, he wanted to see if they could kill us. But when he sensed that the old men used it as well, he knew they were in trouble." Klaus cut the town chief short and answered Grey's question with a smirk, he turned to look at the chief, "Am I right, chief?"
