Affinity:Chaos

During all the silence, Grey moved once again. This was an opportunity for him, he wasn't going to waste it. 

Initially, only five horned men came forth after the young horned lady's call, but after he took out three, two were left, and the three who were by the side were forced to rush in, even though they were a little afraid. 

The young horned lady came to her senses and attacked Grey as well. She couldn't give him the chance to build on his momentum. 

She blocked Grey from attacking the horned men so they could prepare a formation. But with the array in place, Grey had no problems with going wherever he wanted around this area. 

He vanished and appeared behind one of the horned men. The man turned around to block the attack, but he was still sent flying by the impact of the attack. 

Grey followed him and continued his assault. Unfortunately, he was unable to take him out since the young horned lady intercepted. 

Grey didn't fight against her, he moved to the side to evade her attack before targeting another horned man from the five alive. 

His speed in teleportation made him such a difficult foe. When he was fighting against only the young horned lady, he mainly focused on fighting, but with more people available, he thrived from his unpredictability. 

The others had continued their fighting as well, but they still took quick glances at Grey's situation from time to time. As things stand, that battle seemed to hold the key in on how long the fight would last in general. If Grey is able to defeat his opponent, then he could lend a helping hand to the others to make things easier, if his opponent won, then she would do the same. 

The young horned lady raced after Grey, but her speed was not on the same level as Grey's teleportation speed. 

"Don't come close, he created a formation that's helping him." She finally sensed the array and warned the five horned men that were being attacked by Grey. 

Even with the young horned lady rushing to their rescue, Grey had been able to hit all of them more than once. Some of them were already injured, but they could still fight. 

The horned men left the region where Grey's array covered, leaving only the young horned lady there. Grey could only shake his head in pity before focusing on the young horned lady. 

However, he realized that the group of horned men spread out in a formation he was familiar with, and before he could even stop them, they had unleashed their formation. In this place, the effect of the formation was on a whole different level. 

He could feel the weight on his body increase significantly, and even the use of his elements started to become a little harder. The inscription he had set up vanished the second the formation was set. 

'I really hate this thing.' He couldn't help but complain. This was what he had been trying to avoid, but now, the horned men got the chance they were waiting for. 

The young horned lady used the opportunity and charged at Grey. All she wanted to do right now was to beat the hell out of him. She felt embarrassed by the fact that she had to struggle against Grey, who seemed to be the weakest out of the six people present. 

She even took the initiative to force him out of his hiding place. Never did she imagine Grey would place her in such a position. 

Grey, seeing the young horned lady charging towards him didn't panic, he knew he wasn't her match physically, so he didn't try to fight her head-on. He blinked and appeared on the left side of the young horned lady and threw out a fist. 

The young horned lady reacted promptly and blocked before countering with a blow of her own. Grey's figure blurred once again as he vanished from his spot. 

Even though he could still switch positions quickly, the young horned lady was able to sense the ripples in space now, thanks to the help of the array. 

Time went on and Grey and the young lady had exchanged countless blows. He didn't have the advantage, but neither did the young lady. 

The young horned lady finally got an opportunity and unleashed a barrage of attacks on Grey. 

Grey was a little shaken on the inside after suffering from the powerful attacks, but he secretly used his darkness element to block his pain receptors, so even though his innards were rocked, he didn't show it out. 

After surviving the barrage of attacks, Grey knew staying in the formation was dangerous. While he was in the formation, the five geniuses had tried to free themselves so they could help him disrupt the formation, but they were unable to since their opponents knew Grey played a vital role in the battle. 

Seeing the young horned lady's assault on Grey, and the bit of blood on the side of his mouth, they felt it was only a matter of time before he would be defeated. 

They were still trying to push their opponents back so they could help out. The young man who was the leader of the group finally managed to do so, and just before he got to where one of the horned men that made the formation was, he witnessed something unbelievable. 

Grey's figure blinked, and compared to before where he would appear in another location, his figure actually changed to that of one of the horned men. The young horned lady was attacking at that moment, so she attacked the horned man that appeared there. 

The young man looked around and noticed that the formation had been broken, and Grey was standing in the position of one of the horned men. 

'He switched places with one of them. Incredible!' The young man couldn't help but comment. 

Since Grey was fine, he rushed back to his battle. His opponent was already on the verge of attacking, so he couldn't be bothered with Grey's safety any longer. 

The battle raged on, and it entered its final stages. Of the geniuses on the human side, Grey and the young man who was the leader were the only two who had a clear advantage over their opponents. 

Grey's opponent was stronger than he was, but Grey was too technical for her.
