Affinity: Chaos

Boom!

Grey was pushed back by an attack from Clara. Just as he was about to regain his footing, he saw ice arrows shooting towards him at breakneck speed. Even with his lightning element, it would be difficult for him to dodge it.

He didn't panic, with a small step, he suddenly blinked, dodging all the attacks while moving forward.

Clara who thought she finally had him was left shocked when she saw him standing only a few meters away from her, what was worse was that he had a lightning orb which seemed to have hints of blue flames in it.

After practicing the chaos orb for some time, Grey had figured out a way to make the orb with two elements or three. Now, compared to the first time he tried it, his speed in making it was almost instantaneous.

Bang!

Clara set up an ice wall in front of her, and the lightning and flame orb which was still in Grey's hand slammed into the ice wall.

Grey pushed his hand forward slightly, and to the horror of Clara,

Crack!

A crack appeared in the wall, and it continued spreading across the entire wall.

She gnashed her teeth while putting more energy into the wall. If Grey's attack were to pass through the wall, then she would be in danger.

It might not be able to kill her, but she knew it would definitely hurt her.

"Ah..."

Clara screamed loudly, and she started doing something only those in the Overlord Plane could do, she started stealing ice powers from the platform.

Normally, she shouldn't be able to take control of the ice platform made by someone as powerful as her grandfather, but in this case, her grandfather didn't do anything to try to stop her from doing it.

The ice wall which had started cracking soon started closing up.

Grey noticed the sudden increase in essence in the ice wall, he narrowed his eyes, staring at Clara.

....

The lady glanced in the direction of the old man in blue.

"I only created the platform, I've already removed my imprint from it the moment I made it," The old man in blue said.

The lady checked it, and it was just as the old man said, his imprint was not in the platform.

"Hmph! Your granddaughter will still lose," She snorted coldly.

"We know, from the moment the boy used the space element, the battle was decided," The old man in black said.

They all saw how Grey dodged the ice arrows. Space Elementalists have always been regarded highly, even those well ahead of them in stages find it difficult to defeat them, especially one who is very proficient in using the space element.

From how Grey dodged the attacks, they could tell he wasn't that good in using it, but since he could navigate around multiple ice arrows without getting hurt meant it was impossible for Clara to defeat him.

Now, the group understood why the lady was so confident in Grey.

....

Back in the platform.

Grey vanished since his attacks couldn't break the ice wall Clara made, there was no use in trying to do it. If he tried to add another element to the orb, then the power would increase, but he didn't want to waste to much energy.

The improvised version of the chaos orb still took a good deal of essence to keep active.

As soon as he disappeared, Clara increased her vigilance, looking around.

Grey appeared behind her, but she sensed it immediately.

A grin appeared on her face as she turned quickly with a thin sword that was infused with the water element. She slashed quickly, trying to cut Grey down.

The sword cleanly cut through the figure behind her, but her expression wasn't one of victory. The reason for this was that when the blade passed through the figure, she didn't feel even a single resistance. Even she knew she wasn't that powerful to easily cut through Grey's body without meeting any resistance.

And just as she was still trying to comprehend what happened, she saw the figure of Grey slowly fading.

Her pupils shrunk, "An afterimage,"

"Don't move, this battle is already over," Grey's cold voice came from behind her.

Clara was still in the slashing position, and she could clearly sense the aura of the orb which Grey held previously, but this one seemed slightly more powerful than the one he previously used.

She stared in disbelief, but still didn't bring down her sword. She was finding it difficult to believe she lost just like this.

"You were holding back from the start?" She asked angrily.

Thinking about this made her feel a great sense of humiliation. If Grey used the space element from the start, then the battle would've ended sooner.

For someone who had not been beaten by anyone below her stage before, she found it difficult to accept.

"I'm still holding back," Grey said.

His reply shattered the perception of Clara. She was still finding it hard to accept that Grey didn't go all out from the start, thinking he only went all out when he used the space element, yet Grey was telling him he was still holding back? Who was he deceiving?

"Big words for someone who depends on the space element," Clara said, trying to rile Grey into fighting without the space element.

"Whatever, admit defeat so I can leave this place quickly," Grey said, pushing the orb closer to her.

If she tried to make any funny moves, then he would instantly slam the orb into her back. Even if she was in the Mid stages of Overlord Plane, it would be difficult for Clara to survive it, much less when she's still in the Early stages.

Clara clenched her sword closely, still not willing to give up on the battle.

Just when she was preparing to attack.

"Grey,"

The lady who came with Grey suddenly called out.

Grey turned to look at her.

"We're done here, let's go," The lady said.

"Oh, okay," Grey retracted the orb with a nonchalant look before turning around.

Just as Grey turned, Clara stabbed her sword, aiming for Grey's heart.
