Chapter 156: Size Doesn’t Matter

Chapter 156: Size Doesn't Matter

After seeing the tall youth surrounded, Grey didn’t dare to stay any longer and quickly fled the scene with fewer ‘escorts’ compared to when he came to this place. If he stayed here any longer, he was afraid the Purple Horned Lightning Apes would come for him after killing the tall youth. After all, the only reason he brought up the suggestion to them was so that he could create a better opportunity for him to escape.

‘How many are following us?’ Grey asked after running for about ten minutes away from his previous location.

While running, he didn’t have time to check out how many Apes followed him since he focused on leaving that area first, all he knew was that one of them was a Purple Horned Lightning Ape in the Fifth stage of the Origin Plane.

‘Six. One Purple Horned and five Silver Horned’ said Void.

Since he was sitting in Grey’s shoulder, he naturally saw how many Apes followed Grey when he was leaving that area. Although currently, the Apes were some distance away from them.

‘So, what’s the plan now?’ Void asked excitedly.

‘Taking them out.’ Grey replied.

After being chased for so long, he held a little grudge against the Apes, but the real reason he wanted to fight against them was that he hadn’t fought against them before, and lightning attribute beasts are quite rare, so he wanted to test out how strong they were.

‘Well, that’s boring. How about we go steal something else?’ Void suggested.

‘No.’ Grey refused instantly.

‘Can you hold off the five Silver Horned Lightning Apes coming our way?’ He asked Void.

Since he wanted to check out their strength, he naturally wanted to fight against the strongest one, if the Silver Horned Lightning Apes weren’t kept in check, then they would interfere with his fight.

‘For a while.’ Void replied after a brief wait.

His strength had also seen an increase over the past two months, but he was still only a Peak Early-stage Rank Four magical beast which according to the human system, he was at the Third stage of the Origin Plane.

Grey still hadn’t gotten used to the system of magical beasts, he still preferred using the human system even after being corrected by Void on multiple occasions.

Given Void’s stage, it was surprising that he confidently said he would be able to hold off five magical beasts even when some were in the same stage as he was, while the others were just a stage below.

‘Hmm, that’s good. Guess we’ll be having one of the Apes for dinner.’ said Grey.

He had been running for almost one hour because of the Apes, now after dealing with these ones, he wanted to eat and rest. Even though he could still go on physically, he was feeling exhausted mentally from the constant running, not just that, he had also used a huge amount of his elemental essence. If not for his massive reserve, the thought of fighting the Apes wouldn’t have crossed his mind.

‘Dinner is here.’ Void announced albeit Grey not seeing any beast present.

But it didn’t take long before Grey saw the Purple Horned Lightning Ape charging towards his direction.

‘Okay Void, keep the others busy. Remember not to destroy their horns.’ Grey reminded Void before he disappeared.

‘More like remember to stay alive.’ Void thought internally after appearing on the branch of a tree in the direction the Ape came from.

He remembered telling Grey he could only hold them off for a while, yet Grey was telling him not to destroy their horns. How could he possibly destroy their horns when holding them off was already a big task?

Bang!

The battle between Grey and the Ape quickly started, and Grey gained the upper hand from the first strike.

‘My physical strength alone can rival the strength of a Fifth stage Origin Plane Elementalist, if I boost it with the elements, I should be able to go toe to toe with this Ape.’ Grey thought looking at his fist.

The Purple Horned Lightning Ape was just over four meters tall, yet it was engaging in hand-to-hand combat with a human that looked so small compared to its size.

The shocking thing was that the four meters tall Ape was being manhandled by a human who wasn’t even two meters tall, yet.

Bam!

Grey’s fist connected with the large hairy body of the Ape and it growled in pain, clearly, the strike was too strong for it to handle.

“Wow! To think my physical strength is this powerful after boosting it with the elements.” Grey exclaimed looking at his fists in shock.

His look of shock slowly turned into one of ecstasy, because he rarely used his physical strength despite training it frequently, he didn’t know just how powerful it was.

Void stared at Grey’s battle and felt the situation was quite weird, it was rare to see a human manhandle a magical beast, especially one like this Ape which possesses immense physical strength.

‘Well, that’s it for me, time to work.’ Void stood up and looked at the Apes coming his way.

Their huge bodies rushed through the forest quickly.

Boom!

Void instantly sent out an attack that blocked the path of the incoming Apes. He disappeared, and appeared in front of the Apes, staring at them.

When the Apes saw a small cat appearing in front of them, they were a little stunned since the size difference between them was massive. Void was like a small ant standing in front of a towering giant.

The Ape at the front looked at Void with eyes of disdain and stretched out its huge hand in a bid to slap Void against the ground.

This Ape was unaware of Void’s ability since when Void attacked previously, he only attacked the ground. Also, other than the Purple Horned Lightning Apes, the others didn’t know of Void’s capabilities.

‘Heh! It’s underestimating me.’ Void smirked and allowed the Ape’s hand to get close to him.

Seeing that Void didn’t even try to escape, the Ape felt even greater contempt towards Void. Being creatures that enjoyed fighting, it naturally hated anything that would give up without a fight.

Bam!

The Ape’s hand connected with the ground, but it was surprised other than the hard ground, it didn’t feel anything else.

It slowly raised its hand and stared at the place it just smacked. Other than its handprint, there was nothing else. Confusion was soon written all over its face.

It brought its hand closer to its face to observe it properly.

‘Hi.’ Void appeared on its huge palm and attacked the unprotected face of the Ape.

Before it could react, the attack had already reached its face, almost blasting off its head. Most of its face was burnt to crisp.

‘*Sigh* I really shouldn’t have attacked its face.’ Void felt a little heartache when he realized he had lost one of the horns.

Thud!

The body of the Ape landed heavily on the ground.

The other Silver Horned Lightning Apes were stunned, but they quickly regained themselves and attacked Void with lightning.

Void agilely dodged the attack before sending out an attack of his own.

If one looked at the battlefield, then one would realize that size truly doesn’t matter.

On one side, an Ape that was more than double the size of a human was being manhandled by a young man, while on the other side, a small cat was single-handedly fighting against four Apes that were more than a hundred times its size if put together.
