Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 1381  What Are You Up To?

Grey looked at her strangely, there were multiple Phoenixes present, yet she was asking him where it was.

He soon realized she was asking for his opponent, ”Defeated. It wasnʼt much of a hassle.”

”You defeated a Phoenix so soon?” The young lady asked.

”Yes, is there something wrong with doing that? Mind you, I did not in any way steal it, it turned into particles.” Grey explained.

He thought she was asking these questions due to Klausʼ statement prior to the battle.

Klaus spoke of taking them away, so not seeing one, Grey thought the young lady felt he had taken it away.

She looked at Grey but didnʼt know what to say. The fact that it only took less than five minutes for Grey to defeat a grade eight opponent was shocking. One has to know that grade eight powerhouses are the top tier powerhouses in the entire Continent. Yet Grey was able to defeat one in less than five minutes, it was a shocking thing to think about.

ʼA grade nine. Heʼs a grade nine.ʼ

A realization dawned on the young lady and she lost her ability to breathe for a few seconds. She lost composure and took another look at Grey.

To be certain, she asked again, ”The opponent you fought was on the same stage as you, right?”

”Well, theyʼre all fighting opponents in the same stage as themselves, so yeah, the Phoenix I fought was on the same stage as myself.” Grey didnʼt understand the reason behind her questions, he raised a brow and asked, ”Is something wrong?”

”No, nothing.” The young lady shook her head. She couldnʼt wait to rush back to the Faction and report her findings to the Elders and Faction Leaders.

A grade nine expert appeared, and he was so young as well. This was a chance for them to strike a good relationship with him.

She took a look at Greyʼs friends, and her eyes widened. All of them displayed abilities stronger than their peers. The Phoenixes they were fighting were all in a difficult position. They could barely keep up with their attacks. At the current pace, she knew they would be able to defeat the Phoenixes in no time.

Klaus and Reynolds in particular seemed to be on the verge of defeating their opponents.

ʼIʼm no match for them.ʼ The young lady felt her usual pride sink.

She has always held herself in high esteem due to her exceptional abilities, but Grey and his friends crushed her confidence with their abilities.

Grey was out of this world, that was all she could say. His friends, they were bordering between the very peak of the world and wanting to become out of the world, just like their friend.

”How did such figures exist?” She muttered in shock.

She was the only one who knew the strength of these Phoenixes. Her chances against one in the same stage was very low, but due to being from the Faction, and also highly valued and favored, she was given a few items in case she couldnʼt win on her own. Well, the Faction Leader knew she couldnʼt win, hence the reason he gave the item to her.

Seven Phoenixes appeared and faced each of the seven new people that just arrived.

The young lady looked at Grey who was standing there, waiting for his friends in an idle manner and didnʼt know what to feel. He was like a shooting star, drawing all the attention to himself.

Grey stopped bothering with her and focused on trying to get to Void. If Void was successful, he wanted to tell him to take a few more for him, if he wasnʼt, he wanted to reprimand him.

Void didnʼt reply him no matter what he said.

ʼDamn it!ʼ

Klausʼ laughter soon rang out, attracting Greyʼs attention.

”You silly bird, daring to go toe to toe with your daddy. Did you think I wouldnʼt defeat you?” Klaus asked after piercing his thin blade into the body of the Phoenix.

The Phoenix started to freeze, soon turning into an ice sculpture. It shattered and the particles came out, rushing into Klausʼ body.

When Klaus sensed it, he smiled and said, ”Good stuff. How can we get more?”

Grey saw his expression and knew he had the same thoughts as Void. Luckily, Klaus didnʼt have the space element, if not, he wouldʼve left this place already.

Seeing his eyes move to Reynolds and Aliceʼs Phoenixes, Grey said, ”Donʼt even dare.”

”Relax, Iʼm not that greedy to take away good stuff from my friends.” Klaus said nonchalantly, his attention turned to those from the group of seven.

”Youʼre not allowed to interfere, itʼs their business. Donʼt cause any trouble for us.” Grey was forced to warn Klaus.

Klaus chuckled and looked away. He walked over to Grey and whispered, ”Whereʼs Void?”

”Heʼs still fighting.” Grey replied.

”Who are you lying to? I saw him appear beside you, and you two were talking.” Klaus glared at Grey, he added, ”Fill me in on it or I expose you.”

”Expose me for what?”

”I donʼt know, whatever youʼre doing?”

”How are you going to expose me when you donʼt even know what Iʼm doing?”

”Donʼt try me.”

”Iʼm not in a mood for this. Once the others are done weʼre leaving. I still have to find the array formation.”

”Come on.” Klaus was disheartened when he saw that Grey wasnʼt willing to tell him anything, ”Do I at least get some benefits from it?”

”Move away.” Grey pushed Klaus away from him.

Reynolds soon defeated his opponent, and after a few more minutes, Alice was done with her opponent as well.

”That was testing. I wish they were a little stronger, I feel I wouldʼve been able to break through if I had fought a little longer with them, but under pressure.” Alice said with a look of regret.

She absorbed the particles, but it wasnʼt enough to satisfy her hunger to grow stronger quicker.

”Letʼs go. Thereʼs nothing for us here.”
