"You again." Grey remarked and the Old man who was trying to regain himself stumbled, almost falling to the ground. He understood the meaning behind Grey's words, hence his reaction.

"I'll kill you, even if it's the last thing I do." The Old man said coldly.

He turned to the duo, of course he was a bit stumped by the reason why the ring and bead was tossed in his direction, but he wanted to deal with Grey first. After taking care of Grey, he would think of what to do to the duo.

"Help me take him down." He said to the duo.

The duo nodded.

The Old man was already starting to show signs of healing from the injuries. As an Elementalist grows in strength, their healing capabilities increases. From what Grey has read, those Elementalists who had gotten to the God Plane can even come back to life from a single drop of blood.

It was no wonder those in the God Plane were called immortals in all the books. Unfortunately, there are none of those immortals in the present world of Grey.

Grey looked at the trio who wanted to fight against him. He didn't think the Old man was a threat, and since he hadn't seen the duo display their abilities, he was clueless about what they were capable of doing.

'Do you need any help?' Void asked, although he was not prepared to help, he just wanted to ask.

'No need, I'll be able to deal with them.' Grey rejected his help, as he expected.

Without waiting, he took Cori and went to the side to watch the battle. The bunny leader went with them, it doesn't involve itself in any battles from the start, so there was no way it would join in on this one.

Grey focused on the battle ahead, the Old man and the duo had already grouped together, preparing to attack.

One of them made some seals and drew lines made of gold in the air.

Grey felt his heart palpitate just from watching the lines come to life. At first, he thought it was something like what the Old man did when he was fighting with him the previous time. At the end, he realized this was completely different, it was an array.

For some reason, after the man completed the array, he felt himself being shackled, and moving seemed very difficult for him. He didn't think too much about it, but when he wanted to use the space element to move closer to them, he noticed the difference he was unable to use the space element.

'He blocked the space here?' He thought to himself.

Since this person used this from the start, it meant that the Old man must've told him about his abilities.

'This will not be easy.' Grey thought to himself.

The trio were prepared to fight with him, and since they knew of some of his abilities, they could neutralize some. One of the abilities Grey had grown used to when fighting was his space element. It was very vital to over eighty percent of his victories since acquiring it. Not being able to use it is bad news for him.

Scales appeared on his body, and he exploded out with shocking speed, his target, the man with the scar in his neck. He was the one who created this array that blocked the space element, as long as he could take him out, then he would win.

Grey appeared in front of the man in a flash and threw a blow. Just as the blow was about to hit the man, he didn't feel any sort of contact and knew that the man dodged the attack.

'Huh?' He was a bit confused since the man was still in front of him, but he soon understood.

'It phased through.'

This was an ability Grey was very familiar with, he occasionally uses it too. It was something from the space element. Now Grey understood why this man was able to completely seal the space in the area. He was also a Space Elementalist, and with that, he knew the ins and outs of the space element.

'Damn it!' He couldn't help but complain.

He left the man alone and tried to get the other man who came with this man.

The Old man hurriedly attacked, using the fire element to send out a snake that chased after him.

The other man of the duo was a Water Elementalist. Seeing Grey come in his direction, the man created an ice dome to block Grey's attack before creating ice spikes around him, hoping to pierce Grey with one of them as he approached.

Grey unleashed his fire domain, increasing the heat to the pick, and before he even got close, the Water Elementalist among the duo was open for him to attack. The ice dome the Water Elementalist created was useless against Grey's domain.

The Water Elementalist was stunned when he saw this and couldn't help but freak out, he hastily created a stream of water and sent it to Grey.

Grey's domain made light work of the water and he was left defenseless against him.

He didn't even waste any time and attacked, sending a blow in his direction. The blow was enhanced with all his elements. Although he wanted to fight them on his own, he still didn't want to take any chances. The opportunity presented itself for him to take one person out at the start, and he naturally wouldn't miss it.

The Water Elementalist tried to block it with his hands, but when Grey's fist hit his arm, he was sent flying. The bones in his hands shattered from the start, not even giving him the chance to block. Luckily for him, he was able to use it to his advantage and keep his life.

The slight delay he got from using his hands to block was enough for him to retreat.

The Fire Elementalist and the Space Elementalist quickly came to his side before Grey could come close to him and end him.

With the duo by his side, he started to heal, reforging his bones. The bones would not be as strong as they previously were since they were just destroyed, but after a few weeks of constant nurture, they can return to the previous state, stronger even.

"You little piece of shit! I'll kill you!" He yelled in pain, exuding unbridled killing intent.

Now, not just the Old man wants Grey dead, even this Water Elementalist wants to kill Grey.

Grey looked at him and felt a bit annoyed that he was unable to kill him. But he didn't attack again, he was trying to see if he could break the array the Space Elementalist made. If he can, then he would be able to deal with them faster than supposed.

"Kid, why are you endangering yourself? Hand us your treasures and we'll let you leave." The Space Elementalist said.

"Go? Go? We're killing him! Even if he gives us the world!" The Old man would never let Grey leave, especially with this two with him.

The Space Elementalist looked at the Old man, his gaze cold. He wanted to see if Grey would hand over his items. That way, if they were unable to kill him, they would still get something from it. But the Old man seems so bent on killing Grey that he lost his reasoning.

Grey looked at the Old man, "I like honest people. I'm an honest person myself."

When the Old man heard Grey call himself an honest person, he felt like killing someone that moment. How could Grey, someone who had tricked him once, and almost killed him with a trick twice, say he's an honest person?

"You" The Old man wanted to speak, but stopped.

"Kid, we won't kill you. Give us the things and go." The Space Elementalist said.

"He doesn't have the same thoughts as you." Grey pointed at the Old man.

"You don't need to worry about him. As long as we don't help him, he won't dare to attack you." The Space Elementalist said.

Grey thought about it for a while, and seeing the expression of the Old man, he nodded and tossed a ring at them.

The Space Elementalist wanted to catch the ring, but after what happened the last time, he forced the ring back to Grey.

"How can we know you're not messing with us?" He asked.

"Tell someone to check it." Grey said, then pointed at the Old man, "He's fond of checking rings, why don't he do it?"

The duo looked at the Old man and the Space Elementalist nodded, "Alright, he'll check it."

The Old man looked at them, and just as he was about to argue, he saw the cold gaze of the duo.

"Fine."

He didn't want to check it, but he didn't really have a choice in this situation.

If the duo teamed up with Grey, the chances of him escaping was very small.

He stretched his hand towards the ring, grabbing it.
