Chapter 752 - We Accept Your Challenge

"Oh, there he is." Grey used his head to point at Klaus as he returned.

"Hey bud, they're looking for you." Grey said to Klaus as he walked over.

"Huh? Me?" Klaus asked, a little taken aback.

Grey and the others nodded. Amongst the people who were with Grey, seven of them moved closer to Klaus to speak with him. To his surprise, the young lady who was from the Moonlight Faction was part of them.

Klaus, who had been planning to use Grey's fame to get into the Moonlight Faction, was shocked, but he hid it well.

Since he was acquainted with the young lady from the Moonlight Faction, he was free with her. When the others saw this, they almost wanted to beat themselves up. Klaus had been talking with the ladies from the Moonlight Faction for some time now. Well, he had been speaking with everyone, so he was quite acquainted with them. However, this group of people from the water based Factions weren't part of the people he frequently spoke with.

The group stayed with him for a few minutes, and after trying to fish out which Faction he wanted to join. He told them they would find out when it was his turn to challenge someone.

After they left, Klaus smiled proudly. To be honest, he wasn't really feeling bad or sad that Grey gained most of the attention, he was his friend so he was quite happy for him. But being approached by the Factions, especially the Moonlight Faction made him realize he was also a genius.

Being with someone like Grey made him forget about this on some occasions. This gave him a wake-up call.

However, he still didn't think much about it. Being himself, he still joked with the group about how he was going to use Grey's fame to get into the Moonlight Faction.

"How come they didn't treat us like this?" Reynolds couldn't help but ask.

"Because they know what a true genius is." Klaus mocked. This was a chance for him to get at Reynolds, of course he was not going to let it go.

Reynolds almost wanted to fight with him, but when Klaus saw Alice's eyes, he shuddered before saying, "It's because they've seen that you two are so talented, and seeing how we performed as well, they thought it was best to recruit us sooner rather than later."

Klaus' explanation was very plausible. The Factions knew that they wouldn't really have a problem with getting into a Faction, so they tried to see which Faction they had in mind before trying to recruit them. Since both Grey and Klaus kept silent about it, they didn't try to recruit them. Their motive had already been seen.

'Guess my luck did prevail.' Klaus chuckled to himself.

Seeing Klaus chuckling to himself, Reynolds looked at him as if he had gone mad.

Klaus naturally didn't bother with this.

Kyle on the other hand was flabbergasted. He had been the one who had been telling Klaus it was impossible for him to get into the Moonlight Faction since they only took in girls. But Klaus hadn't even tried to challenge someone from the Moonlight Faction, yet they actively extended a hand of invitation.

'Are they even humans?' Kyle felt his brain twitch, and he couldn't help but shake his head.

Grey and his friends had opened him to a world he never thought was possible. First, there was Grey, the monstrous genius, then there was Void, his talking cat, there's Klaus who could be crowned the king of luck, there's Reynolds who was also a terrifying genius, and lastly, there was Alice who managed to make a pact with a Seelie which was almost extinct.

He felt a little downhearted when he thought about himself. Other than his special flame, he had nothing else.

Traveling with Grey and his friends made him feel depressed. However, it also gave him the motivation to grow stronger. This was the main reason he traveled with them.

The small time he spent with the group when they entered the mansion piqued his interest. Only after traveling with them did he understand why they were the way they are.

Time went by and it was finally Klaus' turn to challenge his opponent. All the water based Factions hoped he would pick them.

The audience also waited for his response. They all knew the Moonlight Faction was regarded as the number one Faction when it came to ice ability, and seeing how Klaus had been fighting all this while, they knew he would prefer a Faction that had a great history when it came to their ice abilities. They however ruled out the possibility of him getting into the Moonlight Faction since they don't accept males.

Klaus stood on the platform with a confident smile, before saying slowly, "I'd like to challenge a member of the Moonlight Faction."

The audience were stunned when they heard his words.

"Is he dumb or something, hasn't he heard the Moonlight Faction only accepts female members?" Someone from the crowd asked.

"He must be a pervert since he even has plans of joining an all-girls Faction in the first place." A young lady said.

"Aren't you the same person who said you'll marry him even if he has ten wives? Just say you're jealous rather than making him look bad. As you know, he prefers a Faction that has a great ice ability, and the Moonlight Faction is the best." Another young lady defended Klaus.

Conversations broke out in different parts of the crowd as some people felt Klaus was only making a fool of himself, while a few felt if the Moonlight Faction didn't take him it would be their loss.

While the crowd were speaking, a gentle voice came from the special seating area.

"We accept your challenge."

This was the only time a Faction had spoken since being challenged. The rest time, a member would walk out and fight against the challenger, but due to how delicate the situation was, the lady from the Moonlight Faction felt it was better to voice out their acceptance to the challenge.

"Wait what?!"
