Chapter 1433 Under Control Grey quickly found the link connecting the man to the puppets, unlike the man he took under him, this guy's necromancy was normal and he was able to cut the link between them and the puppets. The second he cut off the link, the man wasn't able to move and Grey walked over to him, placed his palm on the man's stomach, then his facial expression changed drastically. "This is not the main body." He frowned and sealed the energy stored inside the body before him. This body that he thought was real, isn't actually the main body he was searching for. 'It must be one of the other two.' Grey thought, but then he thought about the puppets this guy was able to control and how when he cut off the link the guy froze. "He's alive, but not alive." A realization came to Grey. This was beyond what he thought was possible. This man's brain had been corrupted by someone else, and the culprit was the one who was pulling all the strings. 'This is bigger than what we even thought. A Necromancer able to use people who are still alive. This is bad, this is really bad.' Grey was worried, if such a Necromancer was set on the loose, then it was the end of the world as they know. Imagine what this person will be capable of doing? The fact that they could control whoever they wanted at will and others will not notice the difference between a normal person and a puppet was shocking. There was an energy core in the body of the man, but it wasn't the same as the normal cores Elementalists had. This was the only way Grey was able to sense the abnormalities. He sealed the energy core in the body of the man. Before turning the man into an ice statue. The man was still alive, but unable to make any moves whatsoever. Grey contacted Void, 'Track that shadow down. It's very suspicious.' …. In the town. The shadow had already disappeared from the man's place, but it hadn't left the town, rather, it hid in one of the abandoned houses. Void had noticed the abnormality about it and went after it while staying hidden. When he heard Grey's words, he told him he was already following the shadow. In the abandoned building, the shadow turned into a middle-aged man. "How did they know? This is bad, I need to escape." The man muttered softly to himself. He looked around and said in a soft voice, "After getting the goods. I worked so hard for them." "Yes, yes, most definitely." The shadow spoke once again, but the voice was deeper. Void watched the shadow talk to itself, yet it felt like it was speaking to someone else. Void didn't do anything, only watching from the side. …. In the woods outside the town. Grey appeared beside Klaus and Alice. "You acted quickly." He commented when he saw that the man was sealed in ice. "Were you expecting a battle? I didn't even try to talk to whoever is there, I just froze them. There's no point going through the hassle when all I need is to apprehend the person." Klaus shrugged. Grey nodded and went close to the ice cage, he motioned for Klaus to reduce it so he could get close to the figure. Klaus' ice cage had the ability to counter, just like the ice when they found Alice's seelie, and he wasn't in the mood to get attacked by ice. Klaus obliged and did as told. Grey followed the same process as when he caught the man on his end, and just like what he thought, this person also wasn't the main body. This person was also being controlled by someone else. Grey walked over to Klaus and Alice and told them about his new findings. "What?!" Both Klaus and Alice couldn't believe their ears. If someone like this existed, then it was trouble for the entire Continent. There is no telling where that person has infiltrated and what power the person currently possesses. "We need to make sure the one Rey is following isn't the main body. Also, I have a suspicion about the shadow we saw earlier." Grey answered. "But you said it wasn't the main body." Alice said. "An illusion it made me believe." Grey didn't deny he was the one who sent them on the hunt for these people after saying the shadow was being controlled by someone else. Initially, they felt the person used three links to ensure that if whoever notices this tries to track him down, it would be very difficult. The fact that there were actually three people was amazing to achieve. Now that these three people are not even the ones behind this, the situation has gotten even more complicated. Klaus and Alice didn't have a problem with getting to the person Reynolds and Aries went after. With Grey present, it only took a minute or so before they caught up with them. When they arrived, the lady was fighting against both Reynolds and Aries, with the help of her puppets. The moment Grey arrived, he didn't even speak and directly cut off the lady's link to the puppets, before sealing her energy core. This was the first time Aries was seeing someone handle Necromancers in such an easy way and she was bamboozled by it. "These guys aren't the problem, the problem is someone probably stronger than what we thought." Grey explained the situation to them, and Aries couldn't believe what she was hearing. How could someone be able to control other people that are still alive? It was impossible! The only way they felt a living person could be controlled was forcibly, and this is what they felt this situation was. "As much as I don't want to believe this myself, it's the truth and whoever is behind this is still out there, with the knowledge that these three have been captured." Grey woke them to the reality of their situation.
