Chapter 1198 Extortion

The Old man looked at the Head of the Tekik Family, "You called me for such things?"
He was visibly angry, shaking from anger even. Grey was far stronger than what he expected.
"Why are you blaming me? You were the one who told me it was alright to fight him." The Head of the Tekik Family snorted, he was also infuriated.
From the explosion a few minutes back, more than half of the people from the Tekik Family were wiped out. Even with his help, that was all he could do. If not for the Old man's greed and poor judgment, they wouldn't have fought with Grey. At most, they would think of a way to negotiate with him and leave. But the Old man told him he was stronger which gave him the confidence to fight.
Now, the Old man was blaming him? He was infuriated.
"Fix this, accept his offer, and let us leave." The Old man didn't want to die here. He was already seriously injured from the explosion, he didn't dare to fight against Grey again, especially with that orb still floating above his hands.
The Head of the Tekik Family thought about it and turned to Grey, "I can't offer that much. Five hundred high-grade chaos stones are the most I can fork out right now."
A confused expression appeared on Grey's face, not comprehending what he was talking about.
"What are you talking about?" He couldn't help but ask.
"I'm willing to compensate you, but that's all I can afford. My family's treasury was robbed. I'll have to borrow from those in the Town and my friend here to be able to afford this amount." The Head of the Tekik Family explained.
"Oh, that?" Grey asked with a look of realization.
The Head of the Tekik Family nodded, hoping Grey would accept.
"I'm no longer interested in that. You tried killing me, there's no way you believe that is enough to compensate me, do you?" Grey replied coolly.
The Head of the Tekik Family felt like collapsing when he heard this. He was almost certain that when they were in the Hall, Grey would've accepted this offer, although not completely sure then, but he felt it would've worked when his friend appeared. But not only did he not offer this, but he attacked Grey. Only after seeing that Grey is the stronger person did he decide to make this offer.
While he was thinking of it, he heard Grey's voice.
"If you offered this before, I would've accepted. It's a good thing you're willing to give me better things." Grey sighed as if the Head of the Tekik Family was gifting him good things on purpose.
The Old man looked at Grey and the Head of the Tekik Family with a serious expression, "Boy, what do you want?"
"Three chaos fruits. Also, I want…" Grey started to name the items he wanted and both the Old man and the Head of the Tekik Family felt like they were about to go crazy. I think you should take a look at
The things Grey was naming were things they wanted. They would even kill those close to them to get them, yet, Grey was mentioning them as if they were something casual.
To be honest, Grey had very little knowledge of most of the things he was naming, but after entering the Hall from the Arena, he knew a lot of treasures that were only present in this world. It would be very difficult for an Elemental Sovereign to have the items Grey was asking for, much less an Elemental Venerable.
"Even if we tried till we're dead, we won't have all the items you're calling. Not even half." The Head of the Tekik Family said with a sad face.
"Oh, I didn't know they were that precious. I got a few after only a few months here, I expected you guys to have more. After all, you've spent hundreds of years here." Grey brought out a fruit and the eyes of the Old man and the Head of the Tekik Family enlarged.
'Just how lucky are those favored by the heavens?'
This was the question in their heads.
If Grey knew that they felt he was favored by the heavens, his only reply would've been.
'Wait till you encounter Klaus.'
"Look, I can offer a few, but that's all." The Old man said.
Seeing the gaze Grey looked in looking at the Old man, the Head of the Tekik Family said hurriedly with a wronged expression, "I would've been able to offer some too, but I was robbed."
"Oh, let me see them first." Grey said to the Old man, he turned to the Head of the Tekik Family, "As for you, it's a shame you were robbed. Protect your things properly next time."
The Head of the Tekik Family felt a slight sense of relief, feeling Grey would understandably let him go since he had already robbed him clean, but hearing the other part of Grey's statement, he almost couldn't feel his heart.
"What are you going to offer now? After all, you were robbed clean."
The Old man didn't bother with the Head of the Tekik Family, he already felt like killing him, so he didn't care if Grey wanted to kill him or not. He brought out some items, and they were indeed the things Grey wanted. There were a few Grey only saw in the Hall when he was in the Arena, but the Old man had them.
Grey felt a little excitement, but he didn't show it. There was an item there that would be great for Klaus, and he wanted to bring it back the moment he left this place. Not just Klaus, but even for Reynolds, there was something that would help his Elemental Warrior improve dramatically in strength.
Grey took the items without hesitation and looked at the Old man with a reassuring smile, "You can leave."
The eyes of the Old man shone brightly, and without a second thought, he left, not bothered with his friend who was still under Grey's mercy.
