"No more are coming." Reynolds said after the group had waited for over thirty minutes, not seeing a single Gnome.

"I guess they truly are aware of what we're doing." Grey wasn't too surprised, he looked at his friends and said truthfully, "Going there will be very dangerous, it'll be best if I go alone." 

"I'm going with you. If I go all out, I can use an attack close to the Peak of the Elemental Venerable Plane, I have nothing to be afraid of." Klaus wasn't going to miss out on such an opportunity. 

"My Elemental Warrior will give me increased speed, with it, I'm confident I can escape without being a burden to you." Reynolds said. 

Everyone turned their eyes to Alice, who clenched her fists, disappointed in herself for being so weak. At a certain time, she was the strongest, but now, her friends had all gone beyond her. She was trying really hard, but the others were just freaks. 

Reynolds was a high grade summoner, so even if she were to be a stage or two above him, it wouldn't change much. Klaus could be said to have unlimited luck, everywhere he goes, he sees something that's very beneficial to him. Grey, she didn't even know what to think about him, he's just too freakish. 

Just when she was about to say she wasn't going, a small cat appeared on her shoulder and her eyes sparkled. Yes, Void was present. At the moment, Void might even be a little stronger than Grey, well, in terms of cultivation stage, he is stronger than Grey. Void also had the space element and was more adept at using it than Grey. 

"Void will watch over me, you don't have to worry about me." She said. 

She might be frustrated, but she didn't want to be away from her friends. She didn't want to hear how they made the lives of the Gnomes in the castle. She also wanted to see the reaction of the Prince Grey frustrated the last time, and how he would react to Grey's sudden appearance. 

Grey didn't say anything, he wasn't the one who told Void to jump over to Alice's hands. In all honesty, the true reason he warned them about the danger was because of Alice. The other two could handle themselves, but she was just too weak. Since they would be fighting a large group of people, he didn't want a scenario where he would be bothering himself with making sure nothing happened to Alice. 

'Void's getting smarter.' He thought internally. If Void were to hear this statement, he would most definitely lash out at him.

"Alright, let's go." He said to the group and they walked in the direction of the castle. 

They weren't even subtle with their movements, walking down the pavement that led to the front of the castle. 

Klaus was walking in a poised manner, looking at everything as if it didn't mean anything. 

There were a few Gnomes around, seeing the group of humans walking into the castle region, one of them in the Late stages of the Elemental Venerable Plane charged out, attacking them. His puppet came out, assisting it. 

Grey saw this and smiled, he knew it was a test to see if it was him, and he couldn't be bothered with him, without saying anything, the puppet that was a few inches away stopped moving altogether, the same could be said for the man who released the puppet. Before he could get himself, Grey was already in front of him, with only a touch, the body of the man started to fade off. 

It was a shocking scene, but it also showcased Grey's immense strength. This was what he came here to do, to intimidate the Gnomes. He knew the Gnomes had a certain weakness to the light and lightning elements, so with the help of both these elements, as well as the space element, he was able to achieve what he just did. 

Grey looked around, arranged his clothes, and walked gallantly up the stairs leading to the castle door. Klaus swaggered behind him, when they got to the door, Klaus didn't wait for Grey's order, he touched the door and it started to freeze up. 

Creak! Bang! 

The metal door was completely frozen in only a few seconds, and it shattered. 

Grey and his group saw the large numbers of Gnomes inside the castle Hall waiting for them. Not just that, but they also saw the ones that were coming from all sides of the castle, surrounding the castle from outside. 

He smiled, and when he looked at the Seventh Prince, twenty spatial rings appeared and floated in front of him, each ring starting to circle the castle. Although the castle was huge, it wasn't hard for Grey to control these rings to circle the castle. 

"Alright, let's get to business." Grey said to his friends as they walked into the castle. 

The eyes of the Seventh Prince showed a little bit of apprehension when he saw the rings, he had experienced something like this, Grey passing a ring to him, which almost took his life. If that was the same thing Grey planned on doing, then they were in some trouble. 

He tried to see if he could sense Grey's cultivation stage, but unfortunately, he couldn't. No matter how much he tried, he was unable to sense it. 

He moved closer to his brother and whispered, "Can you sense his cultivation stage?" 

The Second Prince had also tried to sense Grey's cultivation stage when he just walked in, but to his surprise, he couldn't. He had already sensed the cultivation stages of Klaus and the others, but Grey was like a normal person to his senses. However, he saw what Grey did outside and knew that he had to be careful of someone like this. If he were careless, he might not know what killed him. 

"Bold of you to walk into my castle." He didn't show any fear in his eyes, he was a Prince, and he had nothing to fear. Besides that, he was also at the Peak of the Elemental Venerable Plane, and very few people on the same stage as him could defeat him, killing him though, was out of the picture.
