Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 630 - Sensitive To The Space Element

Jason and the Emperor arrived a few seconds late, on seeing the Sage Plane Elementalist who was almost turned into an ice sculpture, an ominous feeling rose in their hearts.

"How the hell?" Jason blurted out unconsciously when he saw the empty treasury.

The Emperor almost collapsed as well. The other Sage Plane Elementalists who followed behind them were left dumbstruck.

The royal treasury had been emptied by a thief, and what was shocking was that they were all present in the castle at the time. They all turned to look at the Sage Plane Elementalist guarding the treasury and pity welled up in their hearts for him.

Given how strict the old man was, it was easy to see that this wasn't his only punishment. Luckily for him, they currently needed all the Sage Plane experts they could get since a battle was coming. So the old man wouldn't go overboard.

"Father, how is this possible?" Jason's Grandfather turned to the old man.

The old man didn't reply to his son's question, rather, he spread out his spiritual senses, covering the entire treasury. His expression turned gloomy as he said, "There's a strange aura here. I've only felt it somewhere else."

The old man's twin brother also had a somber expression, just like his brother, he had also sensed this aura before.

"Where could that be?" The Emperor asked meekly.

"The array that leads to the trial land. This is the aura it emits before the people standing there vanish." The old man closed his eyes, sensing the aura once more, "I can't be wrong, it is the same aura as it."

"How's that possible? I know for a fact that all the array masters in the entire Continent have been trying to replicate it, but none of them has been able to do so," Jason exclaimed in shock.

He had been fascinated by the mechanics of how the array that transported people to the trail land worked since he heard about it. So he had been going to the array masters that had been researching it, but it had been to no avail. They had been researching it for hundreds of years now, however, they've not been able to get the slightest clue on how it worked.

"Brother," The old man called out to his twin brother.

After exchanging a glance, they knew what was on each other's minds. Disappearing from everyone's sight, they both appeared in two different spots in the castle compound.

Spreading out their spiritual senses, they were able to cover every single spot in the compound. Each took half of the compound, so they could maximize the efficiency of their search. If a single individual decided to spread out their spiritual senses over the entire compound, they might miss the aura since it was very subtle.

A few minutes later.

Boom!

An explosion rang out inside the castle, and one of the rooms in the main wing of the castle was destroyed. The old man could be seen standing there with both hands behind his back.

"Whoever you are, come out now, you've been surrounded. I can already sense your strange power," He said while looking into the room from outside.

When the Emperor and the others arrived, he was stunned when he saw the state of the room. This room was none other than his personal room, and the old man had destroyed it from the outside.

….

The explosion alarmed Grey and his friends who were in a room on the left-wing of the castle.

Grey cautiously spread out his spiritual senses to find out what was happening.

"Has the battle started already?" Reynolds jumped to his feet.

"I don't think so," Klaus furrowed his brows as he stared in Grey's direction.

Alice also glanced at him, and they saw him shake his head.

"I'm afraid Void's actions have incensed the old men in this castle," Grey said calmly.

Just when his spiritual sense was about to get to that spot, he received a message from Void.

The message was simple, and that was that some old men in the castle could sense the fluctuations whenever he opened a spatial tunnel.

'I've always known there are people who are particularly sensitive to spatial tunnels. How are things with you now?' Grey asked.

Since Void was able to report to him, it meant that he was safe. As long as Void didn't do anything, he could even stroll out of the castle since most people would take him for a normal cat. His small stature could even help him avoid the eyes of the guards in the castle.

'I'm okay. No matter how good these guys are, they still don't know about the space element. If I were to teleport to three or five locations in the span of a second or two, they would be lost,' Void replied with a naughty laugh.

Grey shook his head when he heard this. He sometimes forgets how clever Void actually was since all he did was cause trouble.

'Guess I shouldn't worry about you then,' He thought internally.

'Guess what?' Void suddenly asked excitedly.

Grey knew he must've gotten something nice since he was this elated, 'What is it?'

'I emptied the royal treasury,' Void replied with a laugh.

'And?' Grey knew Void hadn't said everything else.

'I've finally gotten my hands on the Emperor's crowns. Hahaha,' Void laughed happily as he said.

A smile appeared on Grey's face when he heard this, he couldn't help but wonder why Void was so obsessed with the Emperor's crown. Void had been planning to get the crown since he told him about it, and it looks like he had finally achieved his aim.

Grey told the others about Void's recent conquest, and they were elated. One has to know that the royal family could be said to be the richest family in the entire empire, and their treasury certainly contained good treasures.

….

Back on Void's end.

He was currently hiding in a small spatial opening he created, staring at the group who were looking at the room. His eyes soon locked on to the crown on the Emperor's head, and a grin formed on his face.
