Chapter 463: Spatial Distortion

The Jaguar walked slowly towards Grey who could barely stand. Unlike the last time, it knew Grey has completely exhausted himself.
It didn’t delay this time and attacked instantly. Just as the attack was about to land on Grey, it disappeared.
“Huh?”
Grey who was expecting an attack to land on him was surprised when nothing hit him.
He wanted to stand up to see what it happened, but he couldn’t. He tried looking around as well, but he was exhausted.
The Jaguar was stunned when its attack didn’t reach Grey, roaring angrily, it attacked once again. This time, it attacked with the lightning element, hoping to catch Grey unaware since it thought Grey was the one who deflected the attack.
The attack got close to Grey before disappearing once again.
Grey was once again dumbstruck by this outcome, he didn’t know what was happening, but he could tell that the attacks were being transported.
Boom!
Two attacks suddenly appeared behind the Jaguar, striking it on its back.
The Jaguar roared in pain, after being hit by the same attack that it sent towards Grey.
“I go to sleep for a few days and this is what I wake up to?” A small voice asked.
Grey who was exhausted perked his ears when he heard this voice. He had a sense of familiarity from the voice, but the strange thing was that he was certain he had never heard this voice before.
“Look at you, tsk tsk, a shame. If only Klaus was here, he would laugh you till the end of time,” The voice said again, mockingly.
On seeing how familiar the voice was with him and his friends, Grey forced himself to open his eyes, trying to see who it was that was speaking.
On opening his eyes, a family figure appeared in front of his eyes. Even though his vision was blurry, he was a hundred percent certain of the figure.
“Void… is that you?” Grey said weakly.
“Who else did you think?” Void said sarcastically.
Grey paused, it was as if he was struck by lightning.
‘Void, how come you can speak out now?’ He transmitted his voice over to Void.
He was too weak to speak out now, but he still felt shocked that Void is able to speak out like humans now.
“I just woke up and this is the first question you ask?” Void asked angrily.
‘Sorry, how are you?’ Grey apologized before asking.
At first, he couldn’t process things properly, so he was more concerned with how Void could speak instead of the fact that he was awake.
“I’m doing fine, I really enjoyed my sleep,” Void replied, a sense of estacy could be detected from his tone.
‘Sleep? What sleep? Your consciousness was injured, that was what everyone told me,’ Grey asked, confused, before telling him what happened.
“Pfft, as if? I was only sleeping, although, I was a little bit injured from holding on too long. But after taking the drop of liquid you gave him, I was okay. I just need some rest and I’m good as new, even better,” Void said, laughing.
‘What?!’ Grey exclaimed in shock.
He couldn’t believe Void was only sleeping all this time, and he had been worried sick because of him, even going as far as coming to the dangerous Magical Beasts’ forest to try and find that liquid. He was even almost killed!
“I’m fine, I was only sleeping. Stop acting like you don’t sleep as well,” Void said.
His voice was almost like that of a five year old child, strange, yet soothing to the ears. Other than his arrogant and sarcastic tone, he could totally pass off as a child.
Grey wanted to reprimand him, but he couldn’t find the best word to use. He decided it was best to let that matter rest for now, what was important now was that they should escape from this place.
‘Void, quick, take us out of here, this Jaguar is in the Overlord Plane,’ He quickly recalled their situation.
“Hmph! It’s just a small cat, I can take care of it with my eyes closed. I don’t even need to make a move to suppress it. Unfortunately for it though, I just acquired a new skill I’m dying to use,” Void scoffed, not putting the Jaguar in his eyes.
It was like the Jaguar wasn’t even in front of him.
Grey wanted to speak, but on realizing who Void was, he knew he wouldn’t speak like this if he wasn’t confident in himself.
He quickly let go of everything and focused on healing himself, it would be a shame if Void continued mocking him because of this.
“Now, you little cat, pay your homage to daddy or suffer,” Void said arrogantly while pointing his small paws at the Jaguar.
The Jaguar which was still wondering how it was attacked with its own attack looked at the small black cat that was speaking in the human tongue in front of it in confusion. A look of disgust appeared in its eyes, it was as if it didn’t take Void to be anything important.
Void was enraged when he saw how the Jaguar was staring at him. Given the contrast in size between the duo, one could confuse him to be the child of the Jaguar since it’s still black in color.
“I guess you have chosen to suffer, don’t say I didn’t warn you after you’re dead,” Void said coldly.
He stood on his hind legs, spreading out both hands. A terrifying aura started radiating from his small body, and for the first time, fear appeared on the face of the Jaguar.
The aura Void was radiating was both aggressive and oppressive. He was giving off a special aura that was forcing the Jaguar to stay put. It wanted to run away, but it couldn’t.
“You low leveled creature, daring to act wildly in front of your daddy. I’ll teach you some manners,” Void said arrogantly.
Grey who was by the side was left amused and surprised by how Void was acting, and the aura he could sense from him. If he didn’t know that it was Void, he would’ve thought that there was another beast in the area that was giving off this aura.
Suddenly, a deadly aura started to spread across the forest. On sensing it, Grey couldn’t help but tense up. He had sensed this aura before, space turbulence. But he couldn’t see it properly, so he didn’t know the extent of the strength.
This was the new attack Void acquired after waking up, spatial distortion. It was just like what happened when Grey was trying to comprehend the space element back at Frost City. The spatial distortions that appeared and wanted to cause havoc in the room.
After seeing them, Void was able to get a slight knowledge of how it worked. When he went to sleep, he woke up knowing the skill. It was like it was an innate skill.
This was the first space element attack Void was using, and the strength of the attack wasn’t to be joked with.
The Jaguar started shaking from fear when it saw the spatial distortions coming it’s way. It tried to move, but it couldn’t move due to the suppressive aura Void was releasing.
Void smirked when he saw this.
“No need to try, only a Dragon can escape from me, and that’s if I want it to go,” He said proudly, puffing out his little chest arrogantly.
The Jaguar watched in horror as the spatial distortions came closer, engulfing it.
A few seconds later, nothing was left of the Jaguar.
Void stood on all fours before nodding in contentment.
“It’s just as I expected,” He said while walking towards Grey.
When he got to where Grey was sitting, he disappeared, appearing a few seconds later with a small vial in his hand.
“Open up,” He said while floating to where Grey was.
Grey opened his mouth, and a drop of liquid was placed in his mouth. It was none other than the healing tonic they got from the Blooming Viper.
After swallowing, he focused fully on trying to use it to heal himself.
Void flew to the tree by the side, not bothering to disturb him. He just woke up from a long sleep, he had to see what had changed in his body.
One hour later.
Grey opened his eyes, looking around. Even after so long, he could still sense the undulations of the spatial distortions. He didn’t know what it was, but he was sure it had to do with Void.
He quickly located Void, walking towards him.
“Hey, what was that attack you used?” He couldn’t help but ask.
Void opened his eyes to look at him, after a few seconds he replied, “Spatial distortions, I woke up already familiar with it,”
“Huh? Spatial distortions? It’s like those turbulences in a spatial tunnel, right?” Grey asked.
“Yeah, I gained a little understanding of it when you were comprehending the space element,” Void said.
