Affinity:Chaos,1195 A Beastman? - Read free novels online

“You don’t know what a Beastman is?” Cori couldn’t help but ask from the side.

“A Beastman is someone…” Cori went on to tell him about Beastmen and how they originated.

Grey couldn’t help but be amazed by it. This was the first time he was hearing about this. Apparently, there were people who mixed their bloodlines with that of beasts, thereby, increasing their physical strength. Unlike those Barbarians he saw when he first came to the Aurora Continent, these were people who were like half humans and half beasts.

It was a strange concept that amazed him. The Vaergahl Family was not like this. Ellis had told him all he needed to know about the history of the Vaergahl Family, so he knew this was not how they were.

‘If these people can maximize the abilities of these Beasts, it would be better for me.’ He thought internally.

The truth is, he got the motivation to experiment on his transformation after encountering a race here. While experimenting, he noticed he could increase his size, and that was all he could do.

But from what Cori was saying, there’s a certain level these Beastmen would get to, they can alter their appearance and look exactly like the Beasts they are affiliated with. Of course, not all of them have this ability. Only the few lucky ones can exhibit such attributes, and those people are regarded very highly by their tribe.

Grey clicked his tongue at the thought of it. It’s almost like the way the people who could not just attain scales, but also an innate ability among those from the Vaergahl Family were quite rare. At the moment, he could still barely believe how lucky he was to be able to get both of them, while only getting one attempt and not even having anything related to a Dragon.

While Grey was caught up with what a Beastman was, the Old man and the Head of the Tekik Family decided to strike. Since he wanted to get distracted, who were they to stop him? After all, it was in their favor.

Grey snapped back and faced the duo who were standing before him. The Old man was the Fire Elementalist, while the Head of the Tekik Family was a Wind Elementalist.

When Grey attacked them, he noticed that his attack was swallowed by the Old man’s flames, while the attack of the Wind Elementalist charged at him with frightening speed.

He was able to quickly set up an earth wall to block it, but slashes were left on it. He could barely believe the attack power of these people.

On a normal note, it would be difficult for someone two stages above him to overpower him, but the Old man used his attack to do that. What had him even more worried was that he used his fire element, yet, it was blocked by the Old man.

He attacked once again, this time, he used the earth element to create a large hammer that he slammed at the Wind Elementalist, while facing the Old man, he used his water element against him.

The Old man sent out another stream of flames that covered the water and didn’t give it any chance to even get close to him.

The Wind Elementalist had a more difficult time, but he was able to dodge it at the last minute, escaping from the range of the attack at the last minute.

Grey looked at them and chuckled, he didn’t feel too much pressure. With a wave of his hand, two inscriptions appeared in the sky, both made from the lightning element.

The inscriptions shot out lightning bolts at the duo.

While they were blocking it, Grey decided to use his physical strength against them.

His figure started to fade, a sign of afterimage. The eyes of the Wind Elementalist enlarged since he was the first to sense it.

The Old man on the other hand, felt a threat to his life and quickly created a fire orb around him, but he saw a pale blue hand, filled with claws pass through it and reach for his throat.

He tried to grab onto the hand, but it was too strong for him and he could only make an attempt to push it to the side. Unfortunately, the hand was able to grab a hold of his left hand and yank him away from the protection of his fire orb.

When he saw the figure standing before him, he didn’t panic, but opened his mouth and a large stream of fire was sent to the face of the figure attacking him.

At such close range, even with the help of his scales, Grey didn’t dare to take the attack of the man head-on, and could only toss the man to the side while he retreated. I think you should take a look at

The Wind Elementalist used the opportunity to shorten the space between them and cover Grey with a tornado.

Grey felt like blades were slicing his skin as he was stuck in the tornado. His scales made it feel like it wasn’t that dangerous, but without it, another Elementalist might have been chopped to pieces by it.

He quickly broke out of the tornado and attacked the Wind Elementalist.

The Wind Elementalist knew not to engage in a close battle with Grey, so he quickly retreated, giving the Fire Elementalist space to attack.

Grey was once again forced back.

After retreating, he paused and looked at his opponents. Other than the place where he injured the Old man, he hadn’t really been able to do much harm to them. For some reason, he noticed that these people had the advantage over him, like his element was being restricted.

‘It’s like when the chaos energy erupted. Their power is subduing mine.’ He thought internally.

Normally, he would’ve been able to defeat them, but for some reason, his attacks were not as strong as they usually are. Even if he could suppress the Wind Elementalist, he wouldn’t be able to suppress the Old man.

“Are you tired already? We’re just getting started.” The Head of the Tekik Family licked his lips.

Grey looked at him and chuckled, “Not really, I’m just getting warmed up too.”

“Good.” The Old man laughed and started to make hand seals.

Before long, a large Snake appeared mid-air and charged at Grey.

Grey looked at the Snake, he almost had the same feeling like when he was dealing with the first race he encountered, but compared to that one, this one feels real, and looks real as well.

He didn’t think too much about it and unleashed a fusion orb at it.

The Snake opened its mouth and swallowed the orb, and when Grey was expecting it to explode, it didn’t.

His expression changed slightly, but he didn’t panic, with a snap of his hand, an explosion rang out inside the belly of the snake.

Luckily, he created a certain fail safe when making fusion orbs. Although he had not really experienced something like this, he felt it should only be right to prepare for it. So while training, he found a way to create a method to detonate it if it doesn’t explode. As long as it’s not destroyed, he could make it explode at will.

Not just that, but he could also trick people with it, making them feel like it’s of no use but then make it explode at the last second.

The Old man, who had a smile on his face, felt shocked when he saw the Snake he created destroyed by Grey’s attack which was not supposed to have such a reaction.

This Snake had a special ability, as long as the attack power was not above the ability of its owner, it could swallow it and there would be no effect. But Grey’s attack was clearly different. Not only was there an explosion, but it was destroyed as well.

The Old man took another look at Grey, then he turned to the Head of the Tekik Family. His expression was not pleased in any way.

He didn’t expect Grey to be this hard to deal with. From the message he received and after sensing Grey’s realm, he felt like he could easily deal with Grey. But Grey has made it impossible for him to do what he felt he could do.

Even those in the same stage as himself find it difficult to deal with this particular Snake, yet, Grey dealt with it with only a single attack. If not for his friendship with the Head of the Tekik Family, and what he stood to gain from a foreigner, he would’ve exited the battle after this.

The Head of the Tekik Family gave him a reassuring smile, he felt confident that they would be able to deal with Grey.
