Chapter 1412 He's Here

"You're just a kid who knows nothing. You might be smart, but I know what you should or should not be able to achieve, becoming friends with the Gnomes is one of the things you can not achieve." The man didn't believe a word coming out of Klaus' mouth.

"Do you know the people I can connect you to? Just kill yourself and you'd be shocked." Klaus said with a straight face.

Reynolds and the others took a glance at Klaus. The fact that he could say that with a straight face as if it was something natural baffled them.

'How does his brain work? Who would even think of saying such things?' Aries was beyond flabbergasted by Klaus' use of words already.

She had heard him say things she could never even dream of, yet he keeps saying more. What is worse was the fact that he doesn't even have to think hard before saying such sarcastic words.

It has been a few hours, yet it has been like she had been traveling with Klaus for years now. She couldn't help but wonder how exciting it is to travel with this group. They were clearly all talented, yet they each had other personalities that made them different. She genuinely thought Grey was the only different one given his curiosity towards arrays, but Klaus was just as different as anyone else with his thought process and words.

Reynolds was a deadly fighter, while Alice enjoyed battles, especially ones where she's the underdog. The thrill of defeating someone stronger than yourself has always been magnificent. This is something she has also felt, but it was very dangerous and shouldn't be advised to be done repeatedly. But over the course of the few hours, she has seen Alice do this repeatedly. Even during the trial and the challenges in the arena, she also fought with people stronger than her.

'How did they all end up together?'

This was the strongest thing. Meeting one unique person like them was rare, but the fact that four oddballs could get together and actually become friends was just amazing.

The man was breathing heavily, not attacking any longer.

"Tell me, who's coming?" He asked after a short silence.

"Who says someone's coming?" Klaus asked.

"I'm not dumb." The man looked in the direction Klaus has been occasionally staring at.

"Why did you say that while looking in another direction, are you afraid to look me in the eyes?" Klaus berated the man.

The man wanted to pluck out Klaus' tongue. He was obviously indicating at the place Klaus had been staring at, but Klaus turned it against him and started berating him.

He didn't think he had ever been this angry in his life. In fact, if someone told him he'd ever get this angry, he would never believe it.

Klaus looked at the man, unbothered by his look and said, "It's normal to be afraid of me. I mean, I too would be afraid to stare in the eyes of greatness."

The man was about to explode from anger, but then he breathed out a sigh, he looked at Reynolds and asked, "You don't look too good. I'm surprised you've been able to hold on this long."

"Once you're out of the picture, no one will be able to stop me from escaping." He added.

The man's words made everyone turn their attention to Reynolds, and Klaus and Alice's expressions dropped instantly. Some parts of Reynolds' face had started to turn black.

"What did you do?" Klaus asked, this time, his voice was plain. No sign of anger, no sarcasm, nothing.

"I attacked him before you guys came over." The man chuckled when he heard Klaus' voice and explained, "In some minutes, he'll find it difficult to breathe."

"Unfortunately, you guys can't save him. No healing tonic or method can." The man laughed, he then gave them a sarcastic look, "Of course, I can stop it. And if you're truly friends with the Gnomes, as you said, then they should be able to help him."

"However, he'd most likely be dead before then." The man took pleasure at the expression of Klaus.

He had been tormented by this fellow for so long, and now that he had the advantage, there was no way he was not going to cause him pain. If not for his condition and the fact that it seems like help was coming over to kill him, he would have ensured that he killed Klaus himself. But he didn't have the luxury of time. The main figure holding him down has been dealt with, his chances of escaping before help arrives was higher now.

"Kid, tell me your name. I'd like to know your name so I can hunt you down in the future." The man asked.

But to his surprise, Klaus didn't have the worried look on his face any more. Rather, he was relaxed.

"If you had said there was no way to save him, I would've been depressed, but you saying he can be saved by a Gnome or another necromancer makes it easier for me." Klaus said with a cold smile, "My name is Klaus Ealdian, and don't worry, you'll be seeing me soon. Sooner than you can wish for."

Klaus didn't say anything more, he turned to Reynolds and chuckled, "Bud, keep that ugly armor away. I'll be freezing you until he comes. He'll know what to do, he always knows what to do."

Reynolds didn't argue, he was already overexerting himself trying to keep himself conscious to fight. But seeing Klaus in this state and saying these words, he knew that there was no point in trying to keep the pretense.

Klaus nodded and sealed Reynolds with his ice.

The man and Aries were both speechless. But the man didn't stay to watch, leaving as soon as Klaus did this.

Alice wanted to give chase but Klaus turned to her and said, "Let him go, he's close by. He'll bring him back to us."

Alice nodded and didn't go after the man. Aries looked at them, confused. Both Klaus and Alice didn't show any fear after the man said there was a way to heal Reynolds, rather, they were calm. Klaus even said someone was close and would bring the man back to them.

A minute after the man escaped, a tear appeared in the sky and Grey stepped out of it. He saw his friends, and the frozen Reynolds.

He didn't speak with the others, just exchanging glances with Klaus before disappearing once again.

Aries wanted to stop him, but before she could say a word, Grey was gone.

"You guys think he can deal with him? Aren't you worried he might end up dead?" She asked the other two.

"If he can't handle him then he'll escape. He's the reason we've been stalling that guy, and with what I know about him, this guy will be easy to deal with in his current condition." Klaus wasn't worried, he took a glance at the frozen Reynolds and cursed.

"Stupid fool, you couldn't even speak out. I would've slowed it down while keeping you conscious."

"When you're healed, get ready to go back to death's door, cause I'll be sending you back. Moron!"

Klaus was cursing at Reynolds who couldn't hear his words.

Alice didn't bother as she stared at them. At first she was scared, but the second the man said Reynolds could be healed, she threw away her fear. They had Grey, a freakish genius who has even found a way to deal with not only Necromancers but Gnomes as well. As long as a Gnome or Necromancer can help Reynolds, then Grey is going to be able to help him.

Aries looked at the two friends, stunned beyond words. But then again, she decided to keep shut. Klaus wasn't a fool, he had seen how strong the man was, if he didn't believe in Grey, then it meant that he was sending him to his death.

….

Grey appeared in the sky in a forest, and after keeping his eyes shut for a while a cold smile appeared on his face.

"Klaus, you smart fellow."

Klaus didn't leave him chasing after an unknown opponent, in fact, Klaus gave him a perfect way to track down his opponent. While they've been fighting all this while, Klaus was making sure he loaded the man with excess heavy water. The man didn't notice this due to the condition of the battle. One thing about heavy water is that whoever knows how to use it can track it for hundreds of kilometers.

This is something he found out some time back and told Grey of while on their journey. He never expected that an opportunity to use it would come so soon.

Grey's eyes were cold as he rushed after the man. He wanted to capture the man and bring him back to where Reynolds was located. The reason he didn't walk over was

because he had already seen Klaus' eyes and they were hopeful.
