Chapter 19

Grey had left the human world and went into a portal he had drawn. The portal teleported him into a new world that had mountains and caves all around him with a little forest area off in the distance.

Seeing the mountains and caves, he didn't think much of it. He just thought that the teleportation method was random and he was thrust into a weird place.

Then seeing the forest off in the distance, Grey knew that there would be beasts there which he could hunt and extract their cores.

Using his wind magic, he flew towards the forest at top speed and he was there in less than a minute. Landing smoothly, he brought out his small Earth pole and shaped it into a dagger.

"Alright beasts, where are you all hiding?" Grey asked and he was soon met with a response as a loud growl was heard coming from his left.

"Hunting time!" He smiled and took a stance waiting for whatever would come out of the forest.

And that was when he heard another growl coming from his right.

"Two growls? That means to beasts." Grey mumbled worriedly as he baited his time waiting for whatever horror would come out of either side of him.

That was when he heard trees breaking from his left side and his right. Quickly, with his Earth dagger in his right hand, Grey activated his fire magic in his left waiting for whatever would come out.

Soon enough, a beast could be seen coming out of the forest from his left hand side. The beast on seeing the human, halted it's steps as it examined it.

While Grey was also examining it. As the beast was as big as an elephant of the old with huge tusks on its face, a fur on its skin like a bear and strange Earth amour on its body.

The beast's fur was grey and it had menacing eyes as it huffed at the small human in front of it.

"That is one huge looking beast." Grey gulped loudly and then he heard another growl coming from his right as trees were breaking.

"C'mon, if it's two of you, then I will be dead soon." Grey mumbled as he looked between the beast in front of it and the other side were the other beast was coming from.

In a split second, a huge loud crack was heard and something huge was flung landing right at Grey's foot.

Looking closely, he could see that it was another beast similar to the one that still stood in front of him.

"Phew! Good thing it's dead." He sighed and then turned towards the beast in front of him.

But then movement beneath his feet made him turn around again as the beast was soon seen rising with its body riddled with injuries.

Then it glared at Grey while the first beast was also getting ready to charge right at Grey too.

"Darn! I'm f*cked!" He shouted as the small Earth sword in his hand quickly wrapped around his hand including his knuckles giving him somewhat of an Earth gauntlets weapon.

While his other free hand was blazing hot with fire and taking a stance, he looked at the two beasts with a fierce look on his face.

"C'mon let's dance you ugly beasts!" He shouted and the two beasts charged right at Grey.

The first to get close to him was the beast that was flung and landed beneath his foot. Swiftly, he turned around and shot out a fireball towards the beast that crashed in it's Earth armour just slightly scorching it.

"Crap!" He said as the beast thrust its long tusks towards Grey who quickly acted fast by flying above the beast using his wind magic causing the beast to stumble in the path of the other one.

Still flying, he raised his hand that was covered in the Earth gauntlet. Then he aimed it at the still injured beast. Mumbling a word, a small Earth from his gauntlet that looked like a bullet while also being covered in flames shot out towards the beast's head.

Hearing the loud noise, the beast quickly turned around and used its tusks to block the rock bullet. But its tusks broke into pieces. But luckily for it, the rock bullet was stopped.

"Darn it!" Grey said as he looked at his hand and the Earth gauntlet left his hand and formed a short sword.

Grabbing it with one hand, he flew straight at the beast like a rocket and when he was close enough, he swung the sword towards it but the other beast quickly came in and wacked Grey out of the air with its huge paw sending him crashing into the trees breaking it totally.

"Ah shit! That hurts!" He said as he slowly stood up holding his hand that was wacked by the beast.

Before he could regain his composure, he could hear loud pounding sounds heading his way. And soon, one of the beast could be seen in view while the second one was slightly behind.

"Ah! Here we go again!" He said as he quickly placed his hands facing downwards and quickly called out.

"Aerius!" Immediately, a short huge burst of air came out of his hands quickly moving Grey a few feet away from the beast who went stumbling into the tree Grey stood in front a while ago.

Immediately he landed, Grey fell on one knee as he held his chest in pain.

"Using the elements in quick succession like this is starting to drain my mana quickly." He mumbled.

"I need a break darn it!" He shouted into the air when a loud stomping sound was heard coming from behind the beasts and a loud booming voice was heard.

"Where did that ugly beast head to? I need to finish the job soon." The voice said and then soon, a person was seen.

But Grey raised an eyebrow looking at the person. "Why is he so short?" He said out loud.

And the short man sharply turned towards Grey. "That was quite rude of you to say kid, you shouldn't judge a book by its cover."

Realizing he had said his words out loud, he quickly covered his mouth with his hands and stared at the features of the man.

The man was short like an average 7 year old height, but he was quite fat but not too fat and he wore heavy armour with a sword in his hand and some injuries on his face as if he had just come out of a fight. Lastly, the man had long ears like that of a rabbit on its head.

'Wait, I have seen someone like this somewhere.' Grey thought as he stared at the man longer but then a loud growl was heard again.

"Right, I'm in a fight."

"Where you fighting against these on your own earlier?" The man asked.

Seeing as it was him the man was talking to, Grey quickly replied. "Yes."

"Good! That means you must have a good number of strength to last so long against two of them. I would need you to hold off one on your own while I take care of the other one."

"I will gladly do that." Grey smiled as one of his hand erupted in flames up till his elbow while the second hand was now covered with his Earth gauntlet that now had a sharp spike protruding out of it.

"What!?! What type of strange power is that?" The man mumbled quietly.

Then without warning, the two beasts split up and bolted towards the two humans who were ready for a clash.
