Grey created a small hole on the ground, promptly hiding Void so the group wouldn't see him.
"What's the meaning of this?" He asked with a cold voice while releasing an icy aura.
"You're that guy from the Lunar Academy, aren't you?" The young man who was Jonas' friend pointed at him.
"What does that have to do with you people disturbing my peace?" Grey asked.
Even when speaking with the trio, his current focus was on the condition of Void. He was checking to see if there were any reactions from him, but there has been none.
"You're the reason my brother is dead," The young man said angrily.
"Who is your brother?" Grey asked, confused.
He didn't recall killing anyone from the Starlight Academy.
Seeing Grey's reaction, the young man was more annoyed. Without even speaking any further, he attacked immediately.
Whoosh!
Multiple wind blades shot towards Grey's location.
With a simple flick of his hand, an earth wall rose in front of him, blocking all the wind blades.
Boom!
"I still don't understand why you people are attacking me, are you dumb or something?" Grey asked after successfully blocking the attack.
He still couldn't understand why people would chase after someone just because he was from the Lunar Academy. At least he could somewhat understand why the young man who attacked him wanted to kill him since he seems to be driven by revenge, but the other two hated him right from the get-go.
"Going to the Lunar Academy is the dumbest decision you've ever made," One of the other two young men replied.
Grey shook his head on hearing the reasoning of the young man. Just because he went to the Lunar Academy automatically made him their enemy? What sort of reasoning was that?
"Stop speaking to him, kill him now that he hasn't completely recovered. According to Jonas, he's weaker than this guy. You should be aware of how powerful Jonas is," Jonas' friend turned to the other and said.
The other two looked at Grey, they never thought he would grow this powerful after not seeing him for such a short time. But Jonas was an example of how quickly the special training made those who participated in it grow.
Thinking about it, they felt jealous of him. Since Jonas returned from the special training, his status in the Academy soared, quickly rising above theirs.
They both exploded out with attacks of their own, attacking Grey with the young man.
Grey scoffed before setting up an earth wall to block their attacks.
Of the three of them, the duo who disliked Grey from the start were still in the Sixth stage of the Origin Plane, while the young man who was friends with Jonas was in the Seventh stage.
Grey could easily kill all of them even when he was at the weakest, much less when he was already almost perfectly fine.
Boom!
All the attacks were easily stopped by the earth wall.
The trio who attacked him were shocked at how nonchalantly he was able to block their attacks.
"Regret attacking me now?" Grey asked with a sneer.
The trio looked at each other, unconsciously nodding to Grey's question. Of course they regret it now! Given the strength Grey just showed, it meant that he could kill them without any problems.
They all started taking a step back.
"As much as I'd like not to kill you people, you guys will cause troubles for me in the future," Grey said casually.
He was currently fuming, but not because of them though. His attention was still placed on Void, and he realized that the liquid had already stopped radiating its soothing aura, and there still weren't any reactions from Void. This meant that it didn't work.
This trio were unlucky to provoke him at such an unfortunate time.
"You… you… don't want to kill us, if you do, Jonas will be in trouble," One of the two young men said while retreating.
"I don't see where that's my problem," Grey shrugged as he walked towards them.
The trio were thinking of ways to escape as they retreated. The young man who spoke previously thought the relationship between Grey and Jonas was close, hence he tried using Jonas to threaten him.
The young man who was Jonas' friend was the first to try to escape, charging straight through the entrance of the cave. He was the fastest among the group since he was a Wind Elementalist. The other two were a Water and Earth Elementalist respectively.
Grey smirked, "You think you can leave after trying to kill me?"
He spread out his hand, closing it, two earth walls popped out from the side of the entrance to the cave, shutting the trio inside with him.
The Wind Elementalist was just about to get to the entrance when the wall appeared. He was forced to stop moving, despair appearing on his face.
"Since you miss your brother so much and want to take revenge for him, why don't you join him?" Grey's voice echoed on the side of the Wind Elementalist's ear.
The Wind Elementalist stood in the same position, terror-stricken. It didn't even take up to a second before Grey noiselessly appeared behind him.
"Please… don't… don't kill me, I don't want to die yet," The Wind Elementalist started begging.
"Whoever wants to kill should also be prepared to be killed," Grey said casually.
He tapped the Wind Elementalist on his shoulder, and ice started to spread across his entire body at an unimaginable speed. Before he could even react, he was frozen solid.
The two young men who were behind them were petrified when they witnessed this scene. Grey didn't even show any effort, and the Wind Elementalist who was not only the strongest but was also the fastest was dead.
Grey turned around, looking at the duo. He clenched his fists, and it was followed by a bang.
Bang!
The ice statue behind him exploded, breaking into multiple small pieces.
"Compared to him, your death will be a little bit more painful," Grey said as he walked towards them with a wicked smile.
His handsome face was the only contrast with the murderous aura he was releasing.
