Chapter 1419 Hypocritical World Grey left the Phoenix Faction and went to search for Klaus and the rest. Being able to locate them made it very easy and after a few hours of constant flying and teleportation over long distances, he was able to locate the group of four on their way to a cave. "You guys have been busy." He said when he sensed the aura of all four. They seem to have been having battles upon battles since he left them. It was very evident in their aura as there was a sharp killing intent looming around them, anyone with sharp senses will be able to sense it from some distance away. "Not as busy as you, oh young master Grey." Klaus bowed theatrically. Grey knew what he was implying and chuckled, "It's not as easy as you see it. Either way, I have a good place for us." Seeing Grey's eyes, they knew that Grey had plans of taking them somewhere dangerous, well, dangerous enough for them to survive, at least. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖 "Where might that be?" Alice asked. "A Necromancers camp." Grey gave a soft smile. "Those guys are too easy for you to deal with, why do you want us?" Klaus said. "This is a chance to kill some necromancers." Grey shrugged, seeing Klaus' reluctance, he looked at the others, "You guys in or…" "I'm in." Klaus was the first to raise his hand. The others nodded as well, they didn't have any good impression of Necromancers and wouldn't mind killing all of them. "Before that, we have some Barbarians we want to deal with. They've been hunting people from a neighboring town and eating them." Alice said. "Did you say eat?" Grey asked for confirmation. The group nodded. Grey shivered at the thought of Barbarians hunting and eating people. He didn't really see them as another race, he just saw them as overgrown humans. But from the looks of things, it looks like he was wrong. "Alright then. Let's go, I have nothing to do for now." He opted to follow them. The group had no problem with having Grey with them, if anything, it would ensure their safety. With Grey's presence, their chances of survival and facing harm has reduced significantly. Well, there were few things below the Sovereign Plane that could harm them, however, if they were outnumbered, they would be in serious trouble. With Grey in their group, they would be able to escape with relative ease. Grey's space element makes him a great figure for escaping. Grey didn't know what the others had in mind as they all walked towards the reported location of the Barbarians. Grey asked and found out only a few Barbarians eat humans right now. According to what Aries knew, during older times, most Barbarians tend to enjoy human flesh, but then humans rose to the peak of the world. Having the strongest individuals in the world meant that they had the highest authority. For the safety of their race, most Barbarians stopped eating humans and resorted to eating the meat of Magical Beasts, just like most humans. Only a handful of tribes among the Barbarians feast on humans, the others would kill when provoked, but they try to avoid conflict with humans as much as possible. Some hours later, they got to the location of the Barbarians, and they saw large cages hanging in the air, and humans could be seen in them. Each cage contained at least ten people, and a maximum of twenty people. There were over fifteen cages, and each was occupied except one. "Well, these guys have been eating well." Klaus gave a sarcastic comment when he saw the pile of bones that was on the side of the tribe. The tribe wasn't large, around three hundred square meters. Like any tribe it contained kids, women, and old people. The strong men were stationed close to the gates and some of them were scouting the place to ensure they were safe. Grey stared at the people that were hanging in the sky, shaking his head. He didn't feel any emotions from the view since he also kills Magical Beasts and doesn't feel they were any different from humans other than being from another race. Unfortunately, he was human and had to fight against anything that threatens the human race. As much as it sounded hypocritical, it was life, and there was no way to change it. If he were to come from the Barbarian race, he would've also hated humans and wanted to kill them since they're threatening his race. "There are quite a few Venerables present." Grey said to the group. "Have an exact number?" Klaus asked. "Probably over fifty. But only ten of them are in the Late stages and above. However, there's another aura I'm sensing, more powerful than a Peak Venerable, but not in the Sovereign Plane." Grey replied. "A Pseudo-Sovereign?" The others asked. Grey nodded. "I'll take care of whoever the person is." Klaus said hurriedly. "You're only at the Peak, how can you defeat him?" Grey asked. "You're also at the Peak, why can you defeat him and I can't?" Klaus retorted. "Probably… because I'm stronger than you are?" Grey raised a brow. "Fair point, you take him, I'll deal with those at the Peak." Klaus didn't even try to argue with Grey and just moved on. Even though he said he wanted to take care of the Pseudo-Sovereign, he didn't mean it in any way. There was no way he would fight a Pseudo-Sovereign, the last time he fought someone like that, he almost died, even with the help of Alice, Reynolds, and Aries. Grey looked at the others and said, "We should deal with those scouting. This is a tribe that will never stop this act unless eradicated." "None will be left alive?" Alice asked. "Unfortunately not. They already have these act planted in them, no matter how you try to change it, they will eventually revert back to the same old ways at the slightest chance. You know this, you just don't want to kill the kids." Klaus explained. Alice dropped her head. Aries had the same reaction as Alice to Klaus' words. They knew he was correct, but the thought of having to kill even the defenseless children didn't sit right with them. "Sometimes, we have to sacrifice parts of us for the greater good of humans. That's what it means to be stronger." Reynolds said. "Since when did you start giving motivational words?" Klaus laughed when he heard Reynolds' words. "What do you mean?" Reynolds frowned, he looked at Grey and said, "So you two can say these things but I can't?" "Technically, yes." Klaus nodded with a serious expression. "You two are crazy." Reynolds gritted his teeth at the fact that Klaus and Grey were making fun of him. Grey and Klaus on the other hand were laughing, holding themselves back not to laugh too loud and draw attention to them. After they were done laughing, Grey said, "We should get to work. Spread out, kill any Barbarian you find. We'll wipe out the tribe when we're done with that." Aries nodded and went out. Alice looked at the children in the tribe a little longer and left. If she were killing men and women capable of fighting, then she could do that, but against unarmed children like these, she didn't like it. Klaus and Reynolds didn't have any reluctance as they went their separate ways. Grey looked at the place, the children playing, and then turned his gaze to those in the cages in the air. Those were humans, yet they were trapped in such a state. "A shame. I don't really like such acts, but it's something I can't stop." He shook his head and vanished from view. He could sense a few Barbarians close by, but his friends were going after those people, so he turned his attention to farther places. Unlike the others who were starting from here, he was going to kill from the other side. Grey was fast, the scouts weren't in the Venerable Plane yet. There was no way a Sage Plane Elementalist could sense Grey's presence. With a short movement, the figure of the person disappears from view. Grey was killing them within a second. None of them could stand a chance against him. Not just him, Klaus and Reynolds were on a rampage as well, killing whoever they saw. In no time, they've wiped out all the scouts and rendezvous at the same place. "All dead on your end?" Klaus asked. Grey nodded, "What about you guys?" "Ice sculptures all around. They will shatter in a few minutes." Klaus replied. Alice and Aries nodded when they saw the gazes of the guys. "Alright, since that's the case. Let's go save some people." Klaus stood up, taking the lead. "No plan?" Aries asked. "What's the point? Only those in the Late stages and at the Peak are our concern. The others will not be able to withstand the aftershock of the battle." Klaus shrugged, standing at the front gates of the tribe.
