Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 603 - Destination, Blue Wind Empire's Capital

"You have only one option right now, either you talk, or I forcefully read your minds," The Principal said.

The trio looked at each other, all knowing the risk that came with what the Principal wanted to do. If there was so little as a simple mistake, then they might lose their minds.

"Isn't that a little too excessive?" The Late stage Overlord Plane Elementalist asked.

"Tell me what I want, and I'll let you three go," The Principal said.

"Who are you talking about?" The Late stage Overlord Plane asked in defeat.

He just couldn't take the risk of having the Principal forcibly go through his memories. It was not an easy skill, and he had heard of countless people losing their minds after this was done on them. Some even become brain dead.

The Principal nodded after seeing them agree, he told them of Blake and Delia, and the expression of the trio showed that they had a clue of their whereabouts.

"So it's you people from the Qilin Empire, I should've guessed," One of the Mid stage Overlord Plane Elementalists said.

"Yes, now, tell us where they are if you want to keep your lives," The Principal didn't hide their identity since asking for the whereabouts of Instructor Blake and Delia had already given them away.

"Wait, that means you four are the youngsters the Emperors are all searching for?" The Late stage Overlord Plane Elementalist pointed at Grey and his friends.

"Tell us what we need to know," The Principal didn't allow the youths to speak. It was unnecessary.

"They are being taken to the Capital. If I'm not wrong, they should be there by now," The man in the Late stage said.

"Alright," The Principal nodded before quickly tapping on the shoulders of all three men.

They suddenly felt the strength leave their bodies as they collapsed to the ground.

Just as they were about to leave, Grey gave them another piece of information.

"The Emperor just sent out Sage Plane Elementalists after us. They have also heard of the capture of the Instructors and are on their way there now," Grey said, expecting this from the Emperor.

Since he crippled the princes and princesses, he had been waiting for the reaction of the Emperor, and he finally got it. The only issue they have now is that there is only one Sage Plane Elementalist on their side, and he is only in the First stage whereas the Emperor has people in the Second or even the Third stage.

"Hmph! They're lucky I didn't kill the princes and princesses," Alice snorted coldly.

"This might be to our advantage," Klaus suddenly said.

"Huh?"

Everyone turned to look at him.

He went on to explain, "Since my elder brother has already been taken to the Capital, it would be extremely difficult for us to retrieve him, unless there's a way Void or Grey can easily sneak in and out. But if the Sage Plane Plane Elementalists from the Qilin Empire were to get in a brawl with the Sage Plane Elementalists from the Blue Wind Empire, it would make things easy for us,"

"Grey and Void's ability thrive in chaotic situations, and a battle on that scale is the best thing," He added.

The Principal still didn't know of Grey and Void's space element, but he knew Klaus wouldn't carelessly send his friends to die.

"Hmm, we should get there first. Once we see the situation, we'll decide if to use that method or I'll take the risk of going in," The Principal said.

"Alright," The youngsters all nodded in agreement.

The Principal stared at the three men, before tying them to a tree. He promised to let them live if they told him the whereabouts of Blake and Delia, but they never told him in what condition.

With their cultivation crippled, it would take a miracle for them to untie themselves.

They left the woods, heading into the main empire. They quickly got a map to know their destination and hurried there.

The Principal hoped the group taking Blake and Delia to the Capital was a little slow, so they could catch up with them. He made a route from his friend's place, and the path he felt the people would take.

Since they were all flying, they traveled thousands of kilometers in a matter of seconds. After what seemed like ages, they finally got to the city before the Capital.

From the map, and the Principal's route, the group taking Blake and Delia to the Capital will most likely go through this city.

"I'll ask around if they stopped by, you four should stay put," The Principal said before vanishing into the crowd that was heading into the city.

Unlike Grey and his friends, he didn't have his poster hung all over. And since he was in the Sage Plane, he had a better chance of escaping.

"Damn it, these people are annoying," Klaus complained.

"I still don't understand why they are doing this," Reynolds said.

"They see us as potential threats, people who can endanger their present reign. As you can see, they are all trying to take control of all four empires, and we four are an anomaly that can't be trusted," Alice explained.

"Well, I'm not in any way interested in their power scuffle," Reynolds said.

"Yeah, but do you think the Emperors will believe you?" Klaus asked.

"Even if we vow not to get involved in anything they do, they will always see us as threats. Haven't you heard of how they kill any person that has elemental grades higher than blue?" Alice rubbed her head.

"The Emperor is a moron, he should've treated us kindly, I mean, that is what I would've done," Reynolds cursed the thinking of the Emperor.

"I can't really say what's going through the Emperor's head, but I believe he did this because he felt we're already at a level he couldn't control any longer.. Especially given what has been going on with my Teacher," Grey said.
