Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 570 - Return To The Azure Continent

Ten days later.

"That should be all of it uncle," Grey said with a slightly pale face as he stared at Ellis' father who was already back to normal.

He never expected it would take this long, but after ten long arduous days, he had finally removed the last of the strange energy in Ellis' father's body, well, consumed should be the right word. What he found strange was that his body actually attracted the energy from Thoma's body into his, then the orb in his body will slowly start working, before integrating it into his body.

Even he didn't know how it was possible, but it happened. One thing that was worth mentioning was that his strength had increased significantly, and he was certain of being able to break into the Overlord Plane in no time. Not just that, but he knew he wouldn't just enter the Overlord Plane, but he might even jump straight to the Mid stages of it.

This is because of how long he had been conserving essence energy. He was like a dam waiting to burst open so it could release all the water stored in it.

Now that he was done with this, it was time to head back to the Azure continent, but before that, he had to rest up.

….

The next morning.

Thoma, Ellis, a few of the family's Elder were standing in front of the teleportation array in Mortar City. This was the array Ellis used when he was accidentally teleported to the Azure Continent.

Grey initially wanted to ask for help, but Void told him he knew the coordinates to the Azure Continent, so there was no need in asking anyone for help. Amongst the duo, Void was the one who wanted to leave the most, the reason for this was that he couldn't hold himself back anymore from refining the Dragon blood essence with him.

He also found this place very boring, although, the food was quite pleasing. But Grey was a better cook, so he enjoyed their company.

Just as Grey was about to leave, Ellis recalled something.

'Could it be that he's from a large family? I never got to ask him his last name,' He thought to himself.

He recalled facing an old man the time he was about to leave the Azure Continent, and the old man referred to Grey as Young Lord, this obviously meant that Grey was from a powerful family, only, he was unaware of this. If he could find out Grey's last name, he just might be able to find out which family Grey was from.

With this thought in his head, he approached Grey.

"I've been meaning to ask, what's your last name?" He asked when he got close to Grey.

"Why are you asking?" Grey raised a brow curiously.

"Since you helped my father recover, I recall that you are searching for your parents, maybe I could help with the search," Ellis explained.

"Oh, it's Dawson," Grey said offhandedly.

"Dawson?" Ellis asked, his eyes showing shock.

If it was the Dawson family he was thinking about, then it would explain why Grey was such an amazing genius. But it was also a problem given the hatred the Dawson family had for them.

"Yeah," Grey nodded, he didn't miss the shock in Ellis' eyes, but before he could ask any more questions, the array lit up.

He didn't ask any more questions as he waved goodbye to the people from the O'Brien family.

The Elder who made arrays had a sad expression on his face, it was like his long time friend was leaving him alone in the world.

"Ellis, is everything alright?" Thoma asked when he saw his expression.

"Yes, we should head back," Ellis smiled before walking away.

The others also left the place as well, heading back to the O'Brien mansion.

….

Azure Continent.

A few months after Grey left for the Aurora Continent, the war that had been looming around broke out.

Grey's friends have been tagged as wanted criminals and they were all on the run. Alice's family had it rough since she was the only one who had a big family that could be held by the Emperor.

Thousands had died in the battle, and it was still ongoing. The first originally started between the Azure and the Qilin empire, but the other two empires had joined in as well when they saw the severity of the situation. Of course, this was all because of the influence of the two empires.

The Blue Wind Empire joined forces with the Azure Empire, while the Stellar empire joined forces with the Qilin empire. This battle had cost each empire thousands of Elementalists, and without a final result, it would be a shame for the dead bunch.

None of Grey's friends has been captured yet, which was good news. But rumors have been circulating about one of them being seen close to the borders of the Azure empire. It was none other than Reynolds.

Of the group, he could be regarded as the strongest thanks to his Elemental Warrior, of course this was with the exception of Grey. He had been surrounded multiple times, but he had managed to fight his way out of it, escaping and killing countless warriors.

All four of them were wanted by all four empires, and other than Grey, there had been a few times when Alice, Reynolds, or Klaus had been surrounded. Klaus had even been captured once, but he managed to escape before he was transported to the Capital.

One thing is for sure though, their lives were in danger, and the longer the war lasted, the smaller their chances of escaping unscathed.

….

Grey and Void appeared in the middle of the forest, unaware of what had been happening since their departure.

"Finally, we're back," Grey took in a deep breath as they appeared.

He wasn't familiar with where they appeared.

"Come on, first things first, let's refine this thing," Void urged.

"Is it safe here?" Grey asked.

If they landed in the Magical Beasts' forest, then taking this out will only bring more problems to them.

"Yes, now let's go," Void said before going in search of a cave.

Grey looked around with a smile before going after him.
