Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 842 Conor Dawson

The middle-aged man looked at the new arrivals and did a double take when his eyes went past Grey, but he didn't dwell on it.

Conor on the other hand walked over to the group and stood in front of Grey.

"You're part of the Pyrmond Faction." He said after greeting the Elders of the Faction.

Grey nodded before asking, "What are you doing here?"

"I followed my Uncle here, we're mediating the competition. I'm here to learn." Conor replied.

"You broke through to the Sage Plane already?" Alec's voice came from the side.

"I see you're still at the Peak of the Overlord Plane." Conor turned to Alec.

Alec nodded with an awkward smile, "Unfortunately, yes."

"I know you're stopping yourself from breaking through because of this competition. If I knew he was part of your Faction, I would've advised you to break through months ago." Conor pointed at Grey.

"Are you two close?" Alec asked curiously.

"Well, we had an encounter and helped each other out." Conor didn't go into details.

"I see. I guess I shouldn't be too worried about this competition then." Alec heaved a sigh of relief.

He already felt Grey was different from the rest, but after hearing Conor's words, he could tell that Grey was either as powerful as they were, if not even stronger.

Conor was a very proud figure, he might be nice to people, but he wouldn't acknowledge someone who isn't as powerful as he is as a friend of his.

Grey didn't join them in their conversation, he looked around, trying to see their potential opponents. This was a competition between their Faction and an opposing Faction. He had never encountered anyone from this Syphilis Faction, so he knew nothing about them.

'The darkness element.' He felt a large amount of darkness elemental particles around them. This could only mean that all the techniques they mostly practiced was a darkness elemental technique.

Thinking of the darkness element, he thought of necromancers once again.

'They wouldn't have any problems infiltrating such a Faction.' He thought to himself.

While he was looking at the people from the Syphilis Faction, they were also staring in their direction. A few of them had menacing eyes, and even their auras were eerie.

"We should head to our seats." An Elder from the group said.

She led the group to their seats before settling down.

The middle-aged man from the Dawson Family stepped forward and addressed both sides. He told them the rules of the battles and what were prohibited, death was natural one of them.

While listening to the rules, Grey couldn't help but find a problem with it, there were no rules stating that people couldn't use special techniques to increase their strengths. This was always stated in every single competition he had participated in.

He spoke with Alec concerning it, and he found out the reason for this. According to what was agreed between both Factions, the winner of the last round could add a rule as long as it was not too excessive. Letting them use a technique that would increase their strengths was something that would also be beneficial to the Pyrmond Faction, so they didn't stand against it.

However, this has been the cause of their losses all this while. Since they've not been able to win, they weren't able to remove this rule. This has been the only rule the Syphilis Faction had been using so far.

Grey couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this. This just gave him freedom to use his Fusion State, with that, he could easily wipe out the entire group from the Syphilis Faction.

When the man was done with the rules, Grey heard a second rule that surprised him. Once a member of a Faction was eliminated, the Faction would have to fight with fewer numbers.

The first round of the battles was a one on one battle. The next round however consisted of a general group battle. If the Pyrmond Faction or the Syphilis Faction loses more than half of their people from the first round, it is easy to see who the winner is.

There had been a time when the Pyrmond Faction managed to eliminate six of the ten fighters from the Syphilis Faction. But the remaining four members who fought against the six from the Pyrmond Faction were able to win quite easily.

'This is the weirdest competition I've ever taken part in.' Grey said to Void.

'But they've given you a better chance to shine. It's not that bad.' Void chuckled.

With the rules set in place, Grey was pretty much the winner. He could easily take out all ten people from the Syphilis Faction with the Fusion State, much less when they would have lesser numbers.

Although using the Fusion State wouldn't let his Plane jump to the Sage Plane, his strength would be well over the Overlord Plane.

When the man was done addressing both parties, he called for the start of the battles.

Alec was the first person to step on the platform. He wanted to get the first win to ensure that their Faction's morale was high going into the next battle.

His opponent was a Dual Elementalist who had the darkness and space elements. Alec was purely a Fire Elementalist, and he was one of the strongest Fire Elementalist in the Overlord Plane Grey had seen in his life.

Alec's powers were something that stunned Grey. He never thought that there was someone in the Overlord Plane that was actually this powerful.

'If he really has the Emerald elemental grade, it should be expected.' He thought to himself as he watched Alec beat his opponent.

A few minutes later he was victorious.

Alec returned to their seats, and he was congratulated by the others. Grey felt he made the wrong decision in stepping out too early. He was famous, so the Syphilis Faction would send someone who wasn't powerful among their group to fight against him.

The next person from the Syphilis Faction stepped out, and someone from the Pyrmond Faction stepped out to fight against him.

In the end, the person from the Syphilis Faction won the battle, quite easily.
