Chapter 1221 Believe Me Now?

The golden robed man prepared to attack, but he wasn't facing the Lightning Elementalist Grey was attacking, rather, he was facing Grey.

"Don't be alarmed, this is a special method of attack known as mental attacks. It's the reason I was also able to see the phantom behind him." Grey explained to the golden robed man.

The golden robed man turned to the son of the Dawson Family Head, seemingly wanting some sort of confirmation from him. He could tell he was acquaintances with Grey, but they didn't seem to have a good relationship. If he confirmed that there was something like what Grey was speaking of, then he would not attack Grey, but if there wasn't, then he would attack Grey, and would also believe Grey was the one who brought the phantom.

After all, it was quite odd that he was the only one who could see this mysterious phantom. Besides, there was also the possibility that they had killed it from their last combined attack.

The son of the Dawson Family Head looked at Grey, then at the man and nodded at the golden robed man. Even though he was not a fan of Grey, it doesn't mean he would foolishly let a hidden danger go with them.

The phantom was something they could not see and if it were to attack them again while they were fighting, then they would be in serious trouble. As much as he wanted the golden robed man and Grey to fallout, he wasn't foolish enough to do that at his own peril.

When the golden robed man saw him nod, he looked at Grey again and said, "Unfreeze him."

Grey didn't argue with him and did as he was told.

The golden robed man was even more intrigued by Grey's abilities. With nothing but a lot, he literally made an Eighth stage Elemental Venerable defenseless. If he recalled correctly, Grey was a stage weaker than this man, and this man also had years of experience, yet he was like a small child before Grey. If the duo were to fight, it was easy to know who would win.

Just this mental attack was enough to incapacitate the man, much less Grey putting in more effort.

After unfreezing the man, Grey switched places with him once again, making sure the children of the golden robed man, and most importantly Cori wouldn't be hurt by the phantom. He was standing close to them from the start, he only changed places with the man to confirm something. Now that he had achieved his purpose, he didn't dare to delay any further, if not, they would be in danger of being killed with a single attack.

The golden robed man looked at the man, a bit conflicted, he asked, "Why did you attack my children?"

"I didn't. Why are you believing the words of these foreigners?" The man couldn't believe the man was telling him he was the cause of the phantom's attack.

Although he was frozen, he was still well aware of what was happening while in that frozen state.

"But he said the phantom is behind you." The golden robed man said.

"Did he prove it to you? He accused me and you believed just like that? Are you that naive? What if they are planning to reduce our manpower so they can keep everything for themselves! Never trust these foreigners!" The man asked a series of questions, speaking with a wronged tone.

From the perspective of others, the man was pained by the fact that the golden robed man believed the words of Grey and the others without even doubting it. He was even prepared to attack him, which was absurd from their point of view.

The golden robed man paused and looked at Grey.

Yes, he was acting a bit too quickly.

'I was a bit rash. The voice clearly said it recalled my smell from the last time. That should mean it sensed me then… but, what if it's all an act by the phantom. I mean, I did tell them I've been here before.'

He was conflicted, unsure of who to believe. On one side was a long time acquaintance, on the other hand were the untrustworthy foreigners. If he were asked to choose who to believe, he would pick the man without a doubt. But Grey saved his children, and he didn't feel Grey would do something like this.

From how Grey has acted all this while, he judged that he was not one who would act in such a manner.

He looked at Grey and said, "Prove it."

"Prove that the phantom is behind him."

"I'll not prove that it's behind him, but I'll prove that I can see it." Grey replied.

The golden robed man looked at Grey, a bit displeased.

"The phantom can move, remember?" Grey's next words cleared the doubts in the mind of the golden robed man and the others.

The phantom could indeed move from one place to another. It was proven the last time they fought it.

Grey looked at the man and said, "Protect them."

He couldn't leave Cori unprotected, he would rather not try to prove anything and leave immediately than to do so. Even with Void standing by, he didn't want to take any chances.

The golden robed man had no issues with that and covered them with his energy.

Grey walked forward and stared straight at the eyes of the phantom that was still behind the man. The phantom looked at him, and its face which was covered with a veil revealed a chilling smile. The teeth were damaged and each of them were not whole.

The phantom moved away from the man, flying high into the sky.

Grey sent out an attack, and just as the phantom was about to dodge it, a small snow storm started in that particular place, keeping it in check. Its movement slowed down and Grey's attack hit it, sending it crashing to the ground.

Boom!

With the sound of the phantom hitting the ground, the others believed Grey's words.
