Affinity: Chaos Chapter 1428 Freedom

Chapter 1428  Freedom

The Barbarian was still holding on when he sensed his aura declining at a rapid pace.

"Oh no." The Barbarian's heart sank when this happened.

This meant that one of the trio alive was dead. He didn't think it was the Tribe Leader, but the other Barbarian who had been injured by Reynolds and Aries.

Grey had the a.s.sistance of Void and Reynolds, there was no way the Tribe Leader would be able to escape with the Barbarian in tow. After Grey and his group killed off the Barbarian, the link between the trio shattered and the gathered energy that boosted their strengths leaked out. This was why the Tribe Leader didn't want the Barbarian to die in the first place.

Klaus and Aries sensed change in the aura of the Barbarian, so did Alice. The Barbarian was shockingly only in the Seventh stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane.

The moment his aura reduced to this state, his defense wasn't capable of holding its own against Alice's attacks, much less Aries of Klaus.

"d.a.m.n! This is no fun. I'll leave him to you, Alice." Klaus gave up and stopped attacking. There was no point in him attacking, he would kill the Barbarian within a few attacks.

He thought he would be able to beat the Barbarian while he was still in that strong state, but from the looks of it, there was no need to waste his energy.

Alice didn't mind Klaus no longer attacking, she struck out and the Barbarian's previously powerful defensive wall wasn't able to hold up against Alice's attack, shattering after just one attack. The Barbarian was sent flying by the impact of the attack.

Alice flew after him, but so did Klaus and Aries.

"You never can tell if he's pretending or not, but to be ready than to be too late." Klaus said when he saw Alice's strange gaze.

Klaus might not want to waste his energy on the Barbarian, but he also wouldn't make a mistake like this. If the Barbarian is pretending that his aura had returned to this state, then Alice would be in danger if they went too far.

Alice understood why he did this and decided to let it go. She focused on the Barbarian and within two minutes, she ended the life of the Barbarian.

Some minutes after they were done, Grey and his group returned. It was evident they were also able to kill their opponent since the Tribe Leader's corpse was with Grey.

"What do you intend to do with it?" Reynolds asked as they were returning.

"I'll give it to that guy. You said he could make puppets that retain their original strength, correct?" Grey asked.

"Yes, don't tell me you're going to make an army for him? This is the same as being a Necromancer, the only thing is that you're not the one doing the evil." Reynolds said, giving Grey a weird look.

"I'll decide on what to do when I go back to him. Maybe having someone like that isn't too bad." Grey said, he looked at Reynolds and asked, "Do you think doing that is evil?"

"Necromancy is evil." Reynolds replied.

"Do you know how I managed to remove the mark on my body?" Grey raised a brow.

"With Gnomes?" Reynolds answered a little skeptical.

"Actually, I extract their life force and use it to wipe off the mark. Was that an evil act too?" Grey asked.

"It's different."

"In what ways?"

Reynolds paused, not answering his question. Grey saw his silence and said, "As long as he didn't steal the corpse, or kill someone innocent to get it, I'm fine. I used to have this mentality too when I first came in contact with Necromancers, but as time went on, I realized they just use it as a means to make ends meet"

"It doesn't matter, necromancy is shunned on."

"Rightly so, but what if it's our only chance at defeating the Gnomes?" Grey asked, "I did an in depth study of necromancy before I was able to figure out how to cut their links with their puppets. And I did even deeper research when I was searching for ways to remove that stupid mark."

"Don't write off things like these just because they don't meet the moral standards. Sometimes we have to use unconventional methods to win." Grey added.

He saw Klaus and the others and nudged Reynolds, "Don't think about this too much.l

Reynolds nodded and went over to Klaus and the others.

"Was he hard to deal with?"

"Alice was the one who dealt with him. He lost his boost after you guys left."

"I see. The Tribe Leader also lost it when we killed that guy." Grey finally understood how the formation worked.

It was quite strange that all three lives were linked. The second one of them was killed, they weren't able to do anything and lost their improved strength.

"Where did you send the cage?" Aries asked.

Before the start of the battle, Grey teleported the humans in the cages away to keep them safe. Since they were done with the battle, it was time to release them.

Grey teleported them to the place where the cages were. The humans were still there, incapable of using their elements.

When they saw Grey and the others appear, they all begged them to free them. ReadNovelFull.com

"We didn't save you people, you only entered new management. Of course, we won't eat you like those guys did, but we might do worse than whatever they had in store for you." Klaus said with an evil grin.

When he saw the scared expression on the faces of the people, he laughed and said, "I'm just joking, you guys are free to go. The Barbarians are all dead, they won't be able to harm you anymore."

The people heaved a sigh of relief, all excited that they were alive and well.

Grey and the others looked at Klaus, wondering why he enjoyed messing around with people.
