Chapter 228 - Zivia City

Grey looked at the duo, he almost felt pity for them, well, almost.

"I'm coming." He declared.

Klaus and Reynolds prepared themselves, thinking they would beat Grey up. They've always wanted to beat him up, now that he presented the opportunity to them, they didn't want to miss it like the last time. According to their plan, they would've beaten Grey up after they left the trial land, but because of the sneak attack, they couldn't beat him up.

Their pupils dilated the next second.

"F.u.c.k you Grey! No cheating!" Klaus was the first to curse out.

"Who's cheating?" Grey asked as he appeared behind him.

Bam!

He threw a blow at Klaus' back that sent him flying.

"Ah... Grey, how could you be so cruel? I'm your friend!" Klaus yelled as he landed on the side of the forest path.

'Damn it! I forgot about his insane physical strength. It's all that bastard's fault.' Klaus complained while rubbing his back.

He didn't even try to stand up since Grey would just pummel him back down.

On seeing this, Reynolds immediately started retreating, praying that Grey would focus on Klaus so he could escape.

"And where are you going?" Grey asked with folded arms.

"Nowhere, I'm only creating some space between us so that I can beat you up properly." Reynolds replied, still retreating.

"Oh really? How about this, I'll let you attack first." Grey said motioning to him to give it his best shot.

"No, why don't you just let me go and beat up Klaus in my place." Reynolds said pointing at Klaus who was still on the ground.

Klaus jumped up when he heard this and started cursing at Reynolds' shamelessness.

Grey turned to look at Klaus, and to his surprise, Klaus fell back to the ground, pretending he never stood up. Reynolds continued retreating when he saw this opportunity. But just then, he sensed someone behind him.

"Huh!" He exclaimed in surprise when he realized Grey was no longer standing in front of him.

'Shit! How could I have forgotten? It's all Klaus' fault.' Reynolds complained inside.

"Since you don't want to attack, then I will." Grey's voice sounded out before his figure appeared at Reynolds' left-hand side.

Bam!

Just like Klaus, Reynolds was sent flying with a single punch.

"Ah..." He yelled before crashing into the ground, a few meters away from Klaus.

"*Psst* Don't lie so close to me, go the other way." Klaus whispered to Reynolds.

"This is bad, how do we escape now?" Reynolds whispered.

"Play dead, maybe he'll let us go if he sees we're hurt." Klaus said.

Just as Reynolds was about to speak, he heard Grey's footstep coming closer to them. Without any other choice, he yelped in pain, hoping Grey would take pity on him.

Grey smiled and stretched his arms, "I'm going to enjoy this."

Bam! Bang! Bam!

The sound of fist hitting flesh rang out on the forest path, accompanied by the screams of pain from both Klaus and Reynolds.

Alice who was watching from the side couldn't stop laughing, especially when Klaus and Reynolds started shouting like they were two ladies who were about to be r.a.p.ed.

Three minutes later.

"You bastard, I'll get you for this." Klaus muttered while raising a fist, of course, he was the only one who heard it.

He was already hurting all over, if Grey heard what he said, then Grey might probably continue beating him up.

"What did you say?" Grey who heard his mumblings but not the exact words turned around with his left brow raised.

"Nothing, I said nothing." Klaus quickly said.

"Hmm, I don't trust you." Grey squinted his eyes and stared at Klaus seriously.

"Come on, I win. Let's get going." He laughed before turning around.

He was a hundred percent confident that Klaus cursed at him, but the reason he made a deal with them was so that they could quickly get to the next town. There wasn't any need in delaying any further. Besides, he has had his fun, and knowing the duo, he knew they would most likely plot revenge against him.

"This is all your fault."

Klaus and Reynolds said simultaneously while looking at each other, with sparks flying everywhere. From the looks of things, they were about to start fighting again.

Alice couldn't help but place her hand on her forehead.

"These two are just crazy." She mumbled.

"You two better start walking, or else what Grey did to you would feel like heaven compared to what you're going to suffer in my hands." She looked at them with fiery eyes.

The duo stood up instantly, unlike Grey, Alice wasn't that lenient. And unlike Grey, they couldn't get revenge on her, so getting on her bad side was not a good idea.

Immediately the duo stood up, Klaus looked at Reynolds before saying, "It's your turn now."

"How do you expect me to carry you in this state?" Reynolds spread his arms.

"It's none of my business. Our deal was to switch, and we're switching now." Klaus demanded.

"Damn you! I'm not carrying you." Reynolds didn't give in.

He couldn't give in, he was exhausted just like Klaus.

Klaus and Reynolds continued quarreling as the group advanced in the forest path. They would occasionally encounter some people on the way. After two hours, they still haven't gotten to the next city and Klaus and Reynolds were already getting tired.

Grey was forced to stop the next person they encountered to ask if they were already getting close to the city. The person told them they were only an hour away from the city. The news invigorated the group, and they surprisingly saw the visage of the city within thirty minutes.

"Let's go, I need to eat." Grey said while patting his stomach.
