Affinity:Chaos

Klaus and Reynolds stayed in the same location as they waited patiently. As time went on, more people were attracted to the place, but no one had made a move yet, no one wanted to be taken advantage of.

In the crowd, there were already four Elemental Venerables, but the Sage Plane Elementalists had the higher number, as long as they worked together, they would be able to fight against these Elemental Venerables.

The Elemental Venerables are aware of this, hence they didn't move rashly. They were all in the Early stages of the Elemental Venerable Plane, so they didn't have an overwhelming strength over their opponents. Against one person or two, they could win, but with the numbers of Sage Plane Elementalists present, it would be difficult for them.

After some time passed, the Elemental Venerables decided to step forward. If they continued like this, more people would come and their chance of getting the item would be greatly reduced. They didn't want that, since they were still the strongest power present, they had to take advantage of it.

"We're going to attack the seal, if any of you think that you would not join in but want to reap rewards after we've broken the seal, then don't blame us for attacking the person first." One of the Elemental Venerables snorted coldly.

His intention was clear, everyone would attack the seal together, if those in the weaker stages wanted to leave everything to them, then they would attack the person first before fighting for the treasure.

"Naturally, whoever doesn't attack to break the seal has no right to fight for the treasure." Klaus was already at the Peak of the Sage Plane, so he had the right to speak up as well.

The others at the Peak of the Sage Plane also stepped forward and agreed to their words. They wanted the opportunity to fight as well, but thinking that they would not do anything was just a wishful thought.

With everyone coming to an agreement, they soon started to bombard the seal in the place.

During the first attack, the seal flickered but with a strange vibration it was able to block the attack.

Klaus' eyes changed slightly when he saw this. He didn't know what it was, but if Grey were to be here, he would've recognized it. Gilbert used something like this when he was fighting against the men that attacked him. Grey inquired about it, but he didn't say anything.

If he were here, he might've been able to deduce some things from it.

The others didn't take note of the vibrations as they continued attacking the seal.

It piqued Klaus' interest so while they were attacking it, he was carefully studying it. He was even attacking it with greater vigor compared to the others. He wanted to see the limit of this thing and how helpful it would be to him.

The others felt maybe he wanted the seal to break sooner so they didn't bother with him.

Reynolds looked at him with a strange glance but he didn't say anything.

After attacking for a few minutes, the seal shattered.

The Elemental Venerables were the first to move, after all, they were stronger.

But as they moved, those in the Sage Plane weren't any slower. Of all the people present, a figure shrouded with lightning was the fastest, it was even faster than the Elemental Venerables.

Just as the fastest Elemental Venerable was about to reach the place where the treasure was located, he saw a figure breeze past him, before he could even react, the figure was already inside the room and the item that was exuding the cold had been taken.

He was fortunate to see it and realized it was a thin sword. It was so thin that if not for the handle, he wouldn't have realized that it was a sword.

"A true treasure!" He exclaimed.

With this in hand, although Elementalists rarely used weapons, it didn't mean they wouldn't use them. In some cases, some weapons are so strong that Elementalists can cross stages just because of them.

A sword that was radiating such intense cold would be greatly beneficial to Water Elementalists whenever they were using their ice abilities.

The young man couldn't be bothered with anything and attacked the figure covered in lightning. Even if the figure was fast, he would have to face the brunt of this attack.

Boom!

The attack shook the place as the building showed signs of cracks. Some arrays lit up around the building, strengthening it.

The lightning figure was forced to stop and block the attack. Only then did it reveal itself to the others.

"An Elemental Warrior!"

Someone exclaimed.

Seeing the figure, they were stunned at first. But then again, when they sensed its strength, they were relieved.

They could fight against it. Their only fear now was that they didn't know who it belonged to, so there was a high chance that they might be fighting with the summoner. If the person who summons the Elemental Warrior were to attack them from behind, then they would be in trouble.

For a moment, they were in a stalemate.

'Damn it! Still too slow.' Reynolds cursed, but seeing the people, he more or less guessed what they were thinking.

They were apprehensive!

This was also a good thing, if they didn't know who summoned the Elemental Warrior, they wouldn't carelessly attack.

Klaus smiled when he saw this as well and couldn't help but throw a satisfied glance at Reynolds. The Elemental Warrior was fast, with the treasure in hand, it would be difficult for this group to take it, especially given the fact that they could not be united. Trusting anyone at this moment could lead to death.

"Who summoned it?" One of the Elemental Venerables asked, looking at the crowd.

Everyone kept mute.

"F*ck!" He couldn't help but curse out loud.

An Elemental Warrior was something all summoners were proud of, now, no one wanted to claim this one. It was beyond depressing!
