Affinity:Chaos



Alice, seeing that Klaus had used his domain, used hers as well. Unlike Klaus, she didn't occupy the entire Hall with it, rather, she used it to form a broadsword and grabbed the handle. 

The sword was over three meters long, watching her hold the sword, Klaus and Reynolds burst out laughing. 

Alice didn't have the largest figure, standing five foot six, the broadsword was around double her size. However, it didn't change the fact that with the sword in her hands, she looked like the battle maniac she has always been lauded as. On one side of the broadsword was the ice ability of the Seelie, and on the other side was her fire element. The contrast on both sides shocked the people present. She charged into a group, slashing her broadsword at them. With just one attack, she sent a few people flying. The impact of the attack was beyond imagination. 

Reynolds also used his lightning domain, manipulating it to form a lightning armor around his Elemental Warrior's armor on his body. Now, there was not a single space left to see any part of him, he was fully covered by lightning. 

The eyes of the Second Prince almost popped out. When he first saw Reynolds' Elemental Warrior, he was already stunned, seeing them merge sent chills down his spine, now that he was seeing another form of it, he didn't know how to react. Grey and his friends were freaks, that's all he could say. 

'Damn it! Where are they?' He worried internally. 

After testing Grey out, the small time he chatted with him, he used it to summon the other Peak Elemental Venerables that were in the realm. Sadly, they were not close, so he had to take up the monumental task of holding back Grey and his friends. 

He thought with their large group, they would be able to do it with ease, but Grey started a killing spree within the first minute. In all of his life, even after being with multiple generals and in a few wars, he has never seen anyone that was as proficient in killing as Grey was. It has to be said that Grey was good at killing, especially when put in such a situation. 

'A few minutes.' He said to himself and just then, the worst happened. He was already having a headache dealing with Klaus' ice, yet Grey unleashed his domains on them. 

His fire domain spread out, and it was not the regular fire, rather, it was his icy flames. This increased the speed at which the place was freezing and even those in the Early stages of the Elemental Venerable Plane saw ice forming on their bodies. 

Grey didn't just take out his icy flames, but he also made use of his lightning domain. The already weak Gnomes weren't able to hang on any further and they started to succumb to the chill. 

The most frightening thing happening to them was that as they were battling, they could sense their consciousness slowly being eroded by the cold. It was only a matter of time before they started to fall down, alive, yet in a coma. Their consciousness frozen, unable to wake up in the nearest future without help from a top expert. 

"We're losing more people as the battle progresses, let's retreat." The Seventh Prince spoke up, although he was not feeling the impact of the attack, he was a little apprehensive. 

Grey hadn't used his full abilities, and they had already caused this much damage, he couldn't help but imagine just how destructive this group of four were. 

The Second Prince looked around, and with each ten seconds that passed, at least one figure dropped to the ground. 

"This is our base, we can't run from it." He said coldly. 

"We're not running, we're only retreating, we will take it back." The Seventh Prince convinced his elder brother. 

The Second Prince took a look at the place, thinking about the repercussions if all of his subordinates dies, he turned around, and just as he was about to leave. 

"Don't worry, you don't have to leave." Grey said, and to the shock of the two Princes, Grey and his people vanished, Grey left behind a statement, "We'll come back some other time."

Klaus' irritating voice was also heard from the void. 

"Don't forget to give up tea the next time we come. Do you guys have some nice wine?" 

The Second and Seventh Prince didn't understand what was happening, Grey and his friends barged in, started a battle, and left just like that, and it was even when he has decided to abandon the castle so more of his people wouldn't die. 

"What just happened?" The Second Prince asked, unsure of how to take what Grey and his friends just did. 

"He came to tell us he's around." The Seventh Prince replied. 

This was the same thing Grey did to him, well, in his case, Grey didn't have any help from these freakish people, so it wasn't as bad as this one. 

In this case, Grey and his friends completely wrecked everyone and left. What was worse is that there were people outside who still hadn't been able to make it inside the castle, he didn't even know how Grey and his group were able to achieve that. Unknown to them, the array present in the castle was what Grey used to help himself block help from coming in. With a smaller number of people, they would be able to fight to their heart's content without having to fear being overwhelmed. 

"This… what…" 

The Second Prince was trying to speak, but he couldn't put his words together. He was shaken to the core. He had never seen any act of such caliber in his life. 

….

In a forest some kilometers away from the Gnome's hideout. 

Grey and his group were breathing heavily, all gassed out. They might've put on a calm front when fighting, but they were tired, Klaus and Reynolds were on the verge of collapsing. 

"That was fun! Damn!" Klaus exclaimed.
