“What now?” Klaus asked after they defeated their opponent.
With no one else to fight, they naturally have to continue their journey. But it was unknown what lied in front of them.
“We should get going. We’ve been here for some time.” Alice replied.
“Hopefully, some people’s enemies won’t try to kill us again.” Klaus looked at Grey as he spoke.
“I wonder if you’d still have the mouth to say all these when we meet up with those from your Faction, especially that girl.” Grey squinted his eyes while staring at Klaus, well, behind him.
“Do you think I’m afraid of her? If not for the fact that I’m being ethical, I would’ve beaten the hell out of her by now.” Klaus sneered, and added, “In fact, if she were here, I’d beat her up.”
Grey grinned when he heard this, Alice, Reynolds, and Ellis who were standing beside Grey looked at Klaus with a bit of pity.
On seeing their expressions, Klaus’ face fell, “She’s behind me, isn’t she?”
Grey nodded, a wide grin still on his face.
Klaus sighed and turned around to meet the eyes of the young lady.
“Lara, I wasn’t the one saying whatever you heard.” He turned around to face Grey after saying this, not wanting to look at the eyes of Lara.
Lara looked at Klaus’ back view before saying, “I’ll handle you when we get back to the Faction. I came here due to the ripples of battles. Do you mind sharing what happened?”
“We encountered some people from the Syphilis Faction, it was nothing serious.” Grey answered.
Klaus scoffed but didn’t say anything else. He was fine with having people to practice with, at least before he would leave this place he might be strong enough to fight back against Lara. If not, then he wouldn’t go back to the Faction and wait until he was strong enough.
“The Syphilis Faction, they seem to have a problem with you, correct?” Lara raised a brow.
When they were standing outside the building, she recalled seeing the people from the Syphilis Faction having a stare down with Grey and his friends. Luckily she and a few others walked forward and that stopped the group from the Syphilis Faction.
She looked at Grey then kept quiet for a few seconds, she could sense death in the area. Someone had definitely died here. Looking around, she saw a thin piece of ice.
Her eyes turned to Klaus, this was Klaus’ doing. It was a technique from their Faction used in killing people. It was quite efficient as it leaves almost no corpse.
“Since it’s been sorted, I’ll leave first.” Lara didn’t stay longer, nor did she try to travel with the group. She was only familiar with Klaus, and she wasn’t really in good terms with Klaus.
Her figure soon disappeared and Klaus heaved a sigh of relief.
“What’s the matter between you two?” Reynolds couldn’t help but ask.
“The thing is, she confessed her feelings to me and I snubbed her.” Klaus gave a cheeky laugh.
To his surprise, the other were laughing. He was a bit confused and couldn’t help but say, “I’m only bullshitting…”
He paused and seeing their expressions, he couldn’t help but frown, “She’s behind me again, right?”
They nodded, with Grey and Reynolds bursting out in laughter.
“What’s with you and appearing behind me?” Klaus turned around in annoyance.
His facial expression changed when he realized he was only talking to thin air, there was no one behind him.
“F*ck you, Grey!” He cursed, knowing it was Grey’s idea to mess with him.
The group laughed as they continued their journey further into the place.
….
On another location.
The old man looked at the screen in front of him and the group advancing. He couldn’t help but shake his head.
“It’s all up to fate now. If they still aren’t able to inherit it before these monsters gets there, then there’s nothing I can do.” He muttered before shutting his eyes.
….
In the space Grey and his friends were located. Deep in the place, a large building could be seen standing tall. It was the only building in the area.
A group of people could be seen walking out of the building, showing signs of frustration. ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom
“Doesn’t this mean only she will get the inheritance?” A young man asked, annoyed.
“The old man could give just one person access to the array while the others have to go through the challenge. The Faction Leader picked his daughter, we’ll have to deal with that.” Another person said.
From the symbol in these people’s clothes, it was easy to guess that they were from the Heavenly Fate Faction.
When they entered this place the first time, they were able to speak with the projection of the old man. Surprisingly, they seemed to have some sort of connection to the Twilight Faction as a member of the Faction was the one who started the Heavenly Fate Faction. But this member was only a normal member and didn’t have access to the top techniques of the Twilight Faction. He was a genius in his own right and was able to create the powerful Heavenly Fate Faction from scratch with the little he learned himself.
The old man agreed to let them learn the core techniques of the Twilight Faction, but given the rules of this place, he could only let one person enter. It’s up to the person if they wanted to teach others.
“It’s unfair. I’m better than her. I should’ve been the one there.” The young man clenched his fists.
“It doesn’t matter. Let’s just guard this place and wait for her to completely accept the inheritance.” Another person said.
They couldn’t hide the fact that they were annoyed with what was happening, but there was nothing they could do. The daughter of the Faction Leader was not ordinary, she had extraordinary talent and it was right for her to acquire these things.
“I’m going to try it out again. No matter what, I’ll pass through it.” The first young man went back into the building.
The others looked at each other and decided to sit down outside. They weren’t like the young man who didn’t know when to give up. Since entering this place, they’ve been trying to pass through the challenge, but the array was too intricate, and no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t get past it. The only fortunate thing was that it was pretty much harmless.
….
A few thousand meters away from the group, Grey and his friends were casually strolling, talking and laughing.
They were still move when Void paused mid-flight, “There’s something up ahead.”
His ears perked up and his eyes glowed with a fascinating light.
Grey and the others looked in front of them and couldn’t see anything.
“What’s that Void?” Grey asked.
Void’s knack for treasure was well known by the others except a few.
“I don’t know what it is, but there’s something good in front of us. I can feel it.” Void started getting excited.
Grey’s eyes lit up. Void being this excited meant only one thing, a good treasure. Void had very high standards when it came to treasures, well, unless they are shiny, then he didn’t have any problems with picking useless things. But on occasions like this, he always tends to find unimaginable treasures.
The group started to follow Void’s lead as they headed towards the building they couldn’t see.
As they got close to the place, the visage of the incomparably huge building started to show. Not just that, but a group of six walked over.
“You’re not welcomed here, leave.” One of the young men said as they blocked the path of Grey’s group.
“People from Heavenly Fate?” Kyle asked, he could see the symbol, but he wanted to be sure.
The group of six nodded.
‘Grey, there’s something good inside. I’m going, we’ll see later.’ Void’s voice echoed in Grey’s head and he vanished.
With his small size, the group of six didn’t even see him in the first place.
‘Crap! Wait for me.’ Grey screamed out.
He didn’t want to miss out on this treasure. He didn’t care about these people from the Heavenly Fate Faction, after all, they were not the owners of this place.
Grey took a step and the people from the Heavenly Fate Faction frown and one of them sent a warning strike.
The strike hit the place Grey wanted to place his foot, he retracted it and looked at the faces of the people.

“Don’t take another step.” A young man in the Sixth stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane said in a cold voice.
“There’s something there I need. I don’t have any time to talk to you.” Grey was direct.
Kyle couldn’t help but walk closer to Grey and whisper, “Offending the Heavenly Fate Faction for a treasure isn’t wise. Since they are here means it was their target.”
