Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 882 Unconscious

"Nathan, what are you planning to do?" A female's voice came from the side of the figure standing close to Grey's body.

The figure was Nathan, and beside him was Eva who had been with him since they entered the Lutra realm.

"Nothing, I only want to enjoy the moment of seeing him in such a state." Nathan replied with a blank expression.

Eva sighed when she heard his reply. Nathan was slowly sinking into despair because of Grey's superiority over him. He still didn't want to accept the fact that Grey was stronger than he was.

"This will do you no good. We should take him out of here." Eva approached Grey's body.

Nathan moved slightly and blocked her.

"What is the meaning of this?" Eva asked coldly.

"Don't go close to him. I'll take care of him." Nathan didn't look at her as his eyes were placed on Grey.

"I wonder how he was able to survive such a disastrous attack. He's an annoying pest that just wouldn't go away." He muttered.

Eva looked at him, surprised at where his hatred for Grey came from. It was obviously his jealousy, but she never thought it would be this high.

"Is he still alive?" She asked with a disappointed look.

Nathan paused for a while before nodding, "He has a breath left. But he should be dead in another two days, luckily, we found him."

Eva sighed in relief when she heard this. Without going close to Grey, there was no way to confirm if he was alive or dead.

"Hurry, use the healing tonic with you. It's better and will make his injury recover sooner." Eva urged.

"No." Nathan replied plainly. He didn't hide his intention, he wanted Grey dead.

"What?!" Eva exclaimed in shock.

"No." Nathan repeated with the same deadpan expression.

He didn't want to help Grey, and neither did he want anyone to help him. He wouldn't kill him, nor would he let anyone heal him. He wanted Grey to suffer before drying.

"I'm disappointed in you." Eva tried to push Nathan away, but he forced her back.

"Don't you want to regain your dignity? How would you do so if he's dead?" She asked with anger in her voice.

"I do, but it'll be better if he dies. Witnessing it is a better satisfaction than defeating him. It's not like I can kill him if I defeat him anyway." Nathan said with an evil grin.

"You're crazy!" Eva couldn't believe what Nathan was saying.

The duo were still arguing when a figure walked into the scene.

"Nathan, I'm quite amazed you didn't kill him, given your personality." The figure said with a smile.

"Alec, when did you enter the Lutra realm?" Nathan asked with a cold voice.

.

"Some months back after breaking through." Alec replied with a smile.

He took a glance at Grey's body before looking at Eva, he nodded as a sign of greeting.

"What do you want here?" Nathan asked, standing in front of Grey.

"You know why I'm here, hand him over. I'll pretend I didn't see you trying to wait for his death." Alec said calmly.

He wanted Grey, nothing else. Most of the top youths in the Pyrmond Faction know of Nathan's personality, so he didn't bother to try to ask why he wanted to stop anyone from healing Grey.

"No." Nathan stuck with his initial decision.

"Do you think you want to make an enemy of the entire Faction?" Alec asked calmly. He was not afraid of Nathan. Even though he was weaker, he knew for a fact that Nathan couldn't kill him.

Nathan looked at Alec. Unlike Eva and the two youths who found Grey first, there was no way for him to get Alec to shut his mouth about this.

He thought about the issue for some time before moving to the side.

"Leave, I'm not that stupid to get so close to you." Alec said with a smile still on his face.

Nathan scoffed before moving away from where he was standing, Eva felt some relief when she saw Alec was able to come to Grey's aid. If it were someone else, then Nathan would've found a way to convince them, but with the close relationship Alec and Grey shared, well, that's how they see it, she felt Alec wouldn't let him die.

"How did you get to this point?" Alec shook his head before bringing out the healing tonic he had with him. It was the best healing tonic he had with him, and it started to show some signs very early on.

Some of Grey's injuries started to show signs of healing. Alec nodded when he saw this and picked Grey up before taking him away.

A few minutes after Alec left, Nathan came back to the spot once again. He looked in the direction Alec went with a cold look.

After some time, he vanished.

Keith appeared in the spot some minutes later. It didn't take long before he was able to ascertain that Grey was here.

He exchanged glances with the snake before heading in the direction Alec went.

Somewhere in the Lutra realm.

Void was in the middle of searching for Grey when he suddenly paused, he looked in a particular direction. It was short, but he sensed Grey.

He found a way to communicate with the triplet before rushing in the direction he sensed Grey.

In a cave, three days later.

Grey was lying motionless on the ground, still showing no signs of waking up. His injuries, however, were healing, albeit slow, it was healing which was a good sign.

Alec had been standing guard in the cave, waiting for Grey to wake up. He was a little skeptical about it, but since Grey was healing, it meant he was still alive. Once Grey's injuries heal to a certain level, then he would take him out of the Lutra realm so a high leveled Light Elementalist could help heal him up.

"You're here, why?" Alec looked outside the cave.

"Just want to check on him, no harm." The figure outside shrugged.

Alec looked at the figure coldly.
