Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 1002 Secret Space

Grey appeared in a red world.

The sky was dyed red, giving off an eerie aura. He could almost perceive the stench of blood in the air.

'Be on guard, we don't know what's in this place.' He said to Void.

Void nodded, he was not careless and was already trying to sense what dangers lay ahead of their path.

While they were looking around, a figure covered in light appeared. The light died down almost immediately and the young lady from the Gnome race appeared.

"Tell me, where do you intend to run to now?" She asked with a playful smile. To her, Grey jumping into this place was the same as cutting his escape route.

She felt maybe he was desperate and wanted to get the help of whatever creature was hiding in this place.

"Who says I'm running?" Grey raised a brow playfully.

The young lady looked at Grey before bursting out laughing. She already knew what he had in mind, but she was amused by the fact that Grey genuinely felt he could win against her.

"You want to fight against me?" She asked, just to clarify her assumption.

Grey took a step forward, his intention was clear.

The young lady looked at him with a mocking smile before moving forward with frightening speed.

Grey didn't stand idle, seeing the young lady coming his way, he created an earth dome that protected him from any attacks.

The young lady appeared in front of the earth dome and started attacking it.

Grey, who was well protected on the inside sensed the location of the young lady before unleashing an unusual attack. It was something he hadn't used in a long time.

"Uh?"

The young lady's shocked exclamation rang out in the place. Grey soon came out of the earth dome and attacked with the fire element, sending the young lady flying.

He turned the ground the young lady was standing on as she attacked into mud, giving himself the opportunity to attack while the young lady was shocked by the sudden change in the environment.

The young lady flipped mid-air and tried to land on her feet. However, the second her feet touched the ground, she sank once again.

Grey appeared on her side and attacked with the lightning element.

A sharp shrill left the young lady's mouth as she screamed, clearly in pain.

Grey noticed her reaction towards the lightning element was different compared to the fire element.

'There's a chance that the lightning element is quite effective against them…' He contemplated before attacking with the fire element once again.

The young lady was able to block the attack this time, making sure Grey didn't get the advantage.

Blocking the attack left her back open and Grey had already prepared a lightning inscription behind her. It attacked her from a hidden angle and before she noticed it, it struck her back and sent her flying.

She screamed in pain once again as she looked at Grey with hatred. Although the attack power was not enough to kill her, the pain she was getting from the burns was sending her hysterical.

"I'll kill you!" She shouted out in anger.

"You'll have to be alive to do that." Grey said coolly.

The young lady gnawed her teeth as she looked at the injury inflicted on her by the lightning element.

After calming herself down, she attacked once again, this time, careful not to fall for any of Grey's tricks.

Unfortunately for her, Grey was just getting started. Against an opponent in the Ninth stage, Grey would definitely need the Fusion State to at least boost his stage to the Seventh or Eighth stage to be able to comfortably defeat his opponent. But without the Fusion State, he could easily use his space element and other elements to make life a living hell for whoever he's fighting against.

There's still Void who hasn't gotten into the mix, so she basically has no chance against the duo. Of course, she knew nothing of this.

Grey dodged her attack with the help of the space element, before attacking.

The young lady blocked the attack with ease before attacking once again.

Grey tried to block the attack but was pushed back. The attack power of the young lady was more than what Grey could take, so it opened an opportunity for the young lady who took it without blinking.

Seeing that Grey was forced back, she unleashed another attack with the darkness element and compared to how humans used it, there was a difference in how the people from the Gnome race used it.

Grey was once again forced back by the attack of the young lady, as he blocked the attack, he was pushed back. Before he could position himself, the young lady was already close to him. She refused to give him the chance he wanted to attack. And for someone who was always attack minded, it was best to keep him restricted.

The young lady attacked with a sword made out of darkness.

The sword sliced through the defensive wall Grey created and tried to cut Grey's flesh, but Grey sensibly retreated in time, making sure he was not hit by the sword.

The young lady continued attacking relentlessly, while Grey dodged calmly. He tried blocking it, but whatever defense he sets up, the sword cuts through it like a hot knife through butter.

'Void.' Grey called out to Void as he saw how things were going.

Void finally made a move, disappearing from where he was watching the battle.

The young lady who was invested in attacking Grey never expected another attack to come from behind her, worse of all, it was a lightning element attack.

Void got within five meters of her before attacking, giving her little to no time to react to the attack.

Just like Grey's attack, the lightning bolt struck her back and sent her flying. She crashed into the ground, bouncing off repeatedly.

'Easy.' Void said with a smirk.

Grey rolled his eyes before boosting his strength to the Ninth stage, the same stage as the young lady. Now, he was taking the battle seriously.
