Grey looked at the young man with cold eyes. He did his best to keep his situation stable, not trying to do anything rash.

"Since you survived, I'll keep to my words, you can leave," The young man said arrogantly.

Grey didn't say a word, turning around immediately the young man finished his words. Just before he walked into the forest, he turned to take a proper look at the face of the young man, edging his appearance in his head.

This was something he would never let go of.

The young man watched as Grey walked away.

One of the men beside him came close to him, "Young lord, you shouldn't have let him go,"

"He's not someone worth mentioning, since he survived it's his luck," The young man said before turning around.

He left along with his group.

The crowd who were outside the ruin watched as the entire event played out. Those who were in the same place as Grey were all stunned when they saw he couldn't even evade the attack of the young man, especially the young man in red who was ranked first in the Origin Plane rankings.

He couldn't stand a single blow from Grey, yet Grey couldn't stand a blow from this young man.

While they were all looking, discussing the event which just took place, one of the young men who was in the same cave as Grey had sneaked away, rushing towards Grey's direction with greed evident in his eyes.

….

In the forest.

A shadow could be seen dashing through the woods.

"This is my chance, he's already weak from that attack," The young man muttered while licking his lips.

An opportunity presented itself before him, of course he was going to take it!

While running through the forest, he followed the slight trail of blood, heading towards where it led.

Further into the forest.

Grey was running as fast as he could, trying to get to a place he felt was safe enough before he started healing. He had been trying to stop the bleeding, but whenever his essence goes close to the injury, it seems to increase the damage done to it. His face was already pale, even his body was starting to show signs of lack of blood.

Presently, all his hopes are placed on the healing tonic he got from the Blooming Viper.

'Someone's following you,' Void said, his expression one of seriousness.

'Strength level?' Grey asked.

He could barely speak, luckily, he didn't need to speak out when communicating with Void.

'One of those people we met at the cave,' Void replied.

Grey's initial thought went to the young man he defeated with a single punch, but he quickly threw it to the back of his head. This wasn't the time to think about it.

'I don't know the reason they're coming after me, you'll deal with it when the time comes. If it's for a stupid reason, then you can do as you please,' He said.

Void nodded before focusing on the journey in front of them.

After around five minutes, they soon found a cave.

Grey didn't even try to set up a protective array, he didn't have such leisure time. He was losing more blood as time went on, and his vision was already blurry. While he was running here, he had coughed up several mouthfuls of blood.

After sitting down, he brought out the vial containing the tonic, gulping the entire thing down instantly.

He shut his eyes and focused on healing, a few seconds after he gulped down the tonic, the bleeding stopped.

Void lay at the entrance of the cave, keeping watch.

A few minutes later.

Void heard a rustling sound in the trees, looking up, he saw the figure of a young man dashing towards the cave.

Due to Void's small body, the young man missed him, heading straight into the cave, going towards Grey.

"You're injured, if you know what's good for you, hand over the fruit," He said as soon as he saw Grey.

His request was met with silence from Grey, he didn't even open his eyes to look at the person speaking.

The young man was slightly irritated by this behavior.

"Guess I'll have to take it myself," The young man smiled as he approached Grey.

He stretched his hand in Grey's direction, hoping to collect his spatial ring.

"Huh?!" He exclaimed in confusion.

No matter how much he stretched his hand, it didn't seem to get to the target. When he looked at his hand, his face changed drastically.

The only part that was visible in his outstretched right hand was from the elbow up, the rest seemed to have disappeared into thin air.

The young man hurriedly withdrew his hand, but the result was the same.

"A…" He was about to scream when Void's small paws covered his mouth.

"Don't shout, you'll disturb him. Now, let's go outside," Void said.

The young man was taken out of the cave against his will, his voice, never heard again. Void soon appeared back in the cave as if nothing happened.

….

Four hours later.

Splat!

Grey spat out a mouthful of blood before opening his eyes. His previously pale face had regained its color, the same as his skin.

"Are you alright now?" Void asked.

Grey nodded, staring at his bloodied shirt. He stood up before changing to something else. His eyes were cold, it was as if he was still experiencing what happened some hours ago.

Void told him about the young man who came in, he naturally killed him. Although he could tell that the young man didn't have any plans of killing Grey, he wasn't as compassionate as humans, to him, an enemy should be killed, and anyone who tries to steal from him while he's down is an enemy.

"In two years, I'll repay this favor," Grey said slowly, before walking into the forest, his lonely silhouette looked sturdy, just like a rock.

Void knew Grey was definitely going to take his revenge, but he never expected him to set a deadline for himself. The young man who attacked him was already at the Peak of the Overlord Plane, and Grey seems to be older than he is, this showed how powerful and talented he is. There's no telling how far he would've grown in two years.

But Void was certain of one thing, Grey would be stronger than him by then.
