Affinity: Chaos

Gilbert noticed the strange reaction of his father and couldn't help but ask, "Is everything alright?"

"It's fine. You should go ahead. I'll catch up with you later." Gilbert's father said and didn't accompany him there.

Gilbert wanted to speak but his father had already turned around and was leaving.

Grey and Klaus saw him at this time, seeing the figure leaving, they felt a sense of familiarity.

"Have you seen that person before?" Grey whispered to Klaus.

"It feels like it. But I don't know where." Klaus replied with a thoughtful expression.

He was still thinking about it when Gilbert walked over.

"You've broken through to the Elemental Venerable Plane as well." Gilbert said as he saw Grey.

He couldn't help but sigh. Grey truly was a freak. When they met the last time, Grey wasn't at the Peak of the Sage Plane. But now, he had broken through to the Elemental Venerable Plane, around the same time as himself.

"I got lucky." Grey replied.

"Who was that with you earlier?" Klaus asked after exchanging pleasantries with Gilbert.

"My father. He had something to do so he left first." Gilbert replied.

"Oh, alright." Klaus didn't dwell in the matter any more.

He just felt the person was familiar, so he wanted to ask about the person. Since it was Gilbert's father, then he wouldn't bother about it.

Grey had the same thoughts as Klaus, so after Klaus asked about it, he also didn't speak about it again.

"What do you think is in this place?" He looked at the palace-like building. He could sense a fatal threat from it. From the looks of it, this was most likely the most important thing in this place, but it was also the most dangerous.

If his guess was correct, this was most likely the place the True God stayed when he was still around.

"I wonder what happened to the True God." He said out loud.

"Probably dead." Klaus replied carelessly before adding, "There's also a chance that he had gone to another world. I heard that there's actually a place where True Gods ascend to after breaking through the shackles."

Grey turned to look at him curiously, "Really?"

He had read some things about the True God Plane, but he didn't get too much information on it. Apparently, Klaus seems to know more than he did, so he was a little curious about it.

"Yes. That evil lady told me about it." Klaus nodded as he said.

"Evil lady? I wonder what the Mistress will say when I tell her about how you address her." A cheeky laugh came from behind Klaus.

Klaus' expression changed slightly when he heard this. The person who spoke just now was someone from the Moonlight Faction. She was in the Elemental Venerable Plane Elementalist and could be said to be the leader of the group that came out for this expedition.

"Lara, you're here." Klaus gave a fake smile.

"Hmph! Don't think I'll not tell the Mistress about this. I've always heard how you addressed her. Do you think she doesn't know?" Lara snorted.

She didn't seem to have a good impression of Klaus, to her, any guy who wanted to join the Moonlight Faction had evil thoughts. One of the things she didn't like about Klaus was how he was treated by the Faction Leader and some of the top Elders. It has to be known that even those geniuses who were already in the Elemental Venerable Plane aren't treated as well as Klaus in the Faction. He literally has free reign over all the techniques in the Faction, something that others had to work hard for.

Lara didn't wait for Klaus to reply as she glanced at Grey, "You're Grey?"

Grey looked at her, studying her. She was in the Sixth stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane, so even if he went all out, he knew he was no match for her. If it was when he still had access to the Fusion State, he wouldn't be afraid of anyone in this place.

He nodded at her, exchanging some pleasantries with her.

The group from the Moonlight Faction left after some time. Although Lara doesn't seem to have a good impression of Klaus, it doesn't mean that the others don't. She also spoke with him like an elder sister before leaving.

Grey and Reynolds poked fun at Klaus when they found out that he had an elder sister in his Faction.please visit

Klaus naturally couldn't be bothered with them. He started to look around when he sensed a deadly gaze in their direction.

Grey and the others sensed it at the same time as well and looked in that direction.

"They're from the Syphilis Faction." Keith said.

The group from the Syphilis Faction was led by a young lady. When she saw Grey, she gave him a bright smile as she walked with her large group in their direction.

While she was walking in their direction, the people from the Pyrmond Faction saw Grey and Keith and also walked in his direction.

Not just those from the Pyrmond Faction, but those from the Burchard and Dawson Family also walked over.

The area suddenly turned strange. A lot of people knew that Grey and the Syphilis Faction were at loggerheads. Many people had heard of Grey's name, but most of them hadn't seen him before, they'd only heard of his battles and how powerful he was. This was the first time most of them were seeing him.

The group from the Nether Faction also looked on with curiosity. They didn't want to involve themselves with this battle since there were multiple people involved in it.

Seeing the number of people who were on the side of Grey, those from the Syphilis Faction paused, and the young lady looked at Grey with a playful smile.

"It's been a while." She said.

"Do I know you?" Grey looked at her, seemingly thinking of when he saw her last.

The young lady's expression changed when she heard his question. She was someone who had exchanged blows with Grey, so seeing that Grey didn't recall her, she couldn't help but feel annoyed.

"It can't be helped, of all the people who had exchanged blows with you, you're very insignificant." Klaus added on, making the young lady even more furious.

"Who are you to speak in my presence?" She asked, annoyed.

"I'm someone he knows, does he know you?" Klaus mocked.

The young lady's eyes turned red from anger. Klaus' words were hurtful. He was purposely taunting her with these words.

Seeing that she was about to explode, Grey added.

"To be fair, I don't really know you. Where did we meet?"

The young lady snorted and decided not to speak to them any longer. If she continued talking, she might explode from anger.

Klaus and Grey were two hateful people. She had decided to make sure she killed them before they left this place.

They all decided to wait until after they were done exploring this place. They all wanted to get the benefits, fighting now would only leave them injured. Besides, it wasn't like they had a death feud. Grey might want them dead, but those from the Syphilis Faction don't think that they have a death feud.

Grey was willing to use this to his favor.

"We'll kill them as they separate. She looks familiar, but I don't recognize her." He whispered to the others.

When Ellis and Gilbert heard that Grey was not thinking of letting them go, they couldn't help but feel pity for the group from the Syphilis Faction. Apparently, Grey wanted to ensure that he killed all of them before leaving this place. Even after killing so many, he still wasn't satisfied.

Klaus and the others nodded. They were the ones who were more familiar with Grey, Keith might also know something since he had moved with him and saw how he went back for revenge even when he knew that the background of the person was strong. Since he could take revenge against someone from his Faction, he would definitely take revenge on these people.

"Alright, but we should focus on getting whatever benefits we can from this place first." Ellis suggested.

Grey nodded, he didn't have any issues with that. All he wanted was to make sure that these people suffered for having the thought of even wanting to kill him.

Almost everyone who was still alive was already present. Their number was staggering.

Without any further delay, they started to troop into the building. This was a historic place and it definitely housed some treasures. The things people saw on the way here were precious, there's a high chance that they would see even better things once they head in.

Grey and his friends also went in as well.

The moment they stepped into the building, it was like they were transported into another place. The world inside the building was shockingly large.
