Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 874 A Midget?

Before leaving the Lutra realm, Grey decided to check on the three brothers he took from the horned race. He hadn't checked on them since they separated, and now he was about to leave.

There is no guarantee that they have been able to break through yet since it was a realm that has eluded those from their realm for a long time now. However, Grey had heard of people from other realms coming to the Aurora Continent to break through the barrier of their cultivation.

Unlike the Horned race's realm, the Lutra realm was a little better since they could get to the Sage Plane. If the brothers could break through, Grey would be elated for them, if not, they would have to break through in the Aurora Continent.

Having helpers had made some of his work easier, so he couldn't possibly leave without them.

Taking out the tracking device, he noticed they were all in the same location.

'It'll be easier this way.' He thought before disappearing.

When he appeared again, he was standing on a piece of ice floating in the vast ocean.

'This is unexpected.' He thought before looking around.

He couldn't find any of the brothers around.

"Haha, they ditched you." Void laughed when he saw this.

"They're around, you just don't know where." Grey didn't get annoyed with Void before tapping his foot on the ice, a stairway opened up to the amazement of Void.

"Told you." Grey chuckled and went inside.

Void accompanied him into the place as well.

They walked down the stairs carefully.

"Isn't the ice above floating around?" Void asked when they started descending the stairs.

"Yeah, strange." Grey nodded with furrowed brows.

He soon felt the movement when the stairs suddenly changed. It turned into a slide and they started to slide down the place.

The change took him by surprise, so before she could react, he was already falling down the place.

Bam!

He crashed into hard rocks at the bottom of the slide.

"Don't tell me this is the bottom of the ocean…" Void commented as they landed.

Unlike Grey, he landed on his feet.

"It's not, obviously." Grey replied before looking around.

They seemed to be in a city, well, sort of.

He took out his tracking device and noticed there had been a change in the location of the brothers. They were currently in three different positions.

"How did you even do it?" Void couldn't help but ask.

Whenever Grey enters a labyrinth or canyon, or in this case an abandoned city, the view on the tracking device changes. Now, it was only showing the map around the city.

"Easy, when making it, I used an array that would draw power from the world. In turn, it would also give me a good map of any small area I'm in. It's very difficult, and developing the array took a while." Grey replied with a proud smile.

.

"You're a freak." Void blurted out.

He couldn't bear to use the word genius since Grey's thinking was above that. A freak was better and suited Grey even more.

The fact that he could not only come up with something like that but also made it as well showed just how freakish his mind was.

"Thank you." Grey chuckled, "You'll be going in this direction while I go in the other."

Grey wanted them to leave as soon as they could. He received a message from Klaus not too long ago, seeking his assistance on something. So he wanted to go check it out once he leaves this place.

Void nodded and disappeared.

Grey went in another direction, opposite Void's. Some minutes later, he noticed some figures running around the place. They were not humans, well, he couldn't say they weren't humans, it was a confusing mix.

One of them had the face of a man but was not even up to a meter tall. It

'Where have I seen someone like this?' He fell deep in thoughts as he saw the figure.

The figure was staring at him as well. His expression was one of malice.

'Yes, those things that control corpses!'

A memory flashed through his head and he recalled fighting against them while he was in the Azure Continent. He almost killed them but they escaped underground.

He didn't think there were more, and here as well.

The people from this race were so small, that it wasn't wrong for them to be referred to as midgets.

'Void… you're not going to believe what I just saw.' He communicated with Void instantly.

'Those things we fought in the Azure Continent?' Void asked.

'Eh! You've seen them as well?' Grey was taken aback when he heard Void's question.

'Hehe, one of them is lying here, bowing to his master, me.' Void replied with a playful laugh.

'Nice. I have a score to settle with them as well. I don't mind beating this one up.' Grey said.

'If I recall correctly, these things are the ones that taught necromancers, so they should have a way to remove that mark from my body.' He thought while staring at the man.

"Human, you have our mark." The man said.

"Yes, and I'd like it taken away." Grey replied.

He didn't expect the man to be the first to speak to him.

"Whoever is marked should be killed, that's the rule. You're marked, that means you're a threat to us, and also a special tool as well." The man licked his lips.

If not for the beards on the man's face, Grey would've called the man a baby when he saw him doing this.

"How long have you been here?" Grey asked curiously.

"You'll die soon, there is no need to tell you." The man replied before rushing at Grey.

Only when he attacked did Grey realize the man was not as simple as he looked. He was already at the Peak of the Sage Plane, and it was easy to see that his strength was not that of a regular Peak Sage Plane Elementalist.

'He's suppressing his cultivation Plane.'
