Affinity: Chaos

**A.N: Reload the last chapter, it has been fixed :(**

Grey watched the whole process while thinking about Void’s hatching. Void ate his treasures as he came to life. The scene of a small cat sleeping inside his bag with a big protruding stomach was funny as he thought about it.

’I wonder what type of cat Void is…’ He thought to himself as he watched the scene before him.

It took almost one hour for the process to complete, but then Grey started to hear cracks from the egg. Melmera has quickened the whole process and the egg which was supposed to take a few more weeks hatched in less than one hour.

’Changing the time of something is really strange.’ Grey thought.

He recalled the time he spent with the old Turtle that seemingly had the ability to change the time in the space. He spent what seemed to be weeks there and it was only a few days. It was a strange concept.

Time isn’t something he believed could be played with, but there are two instances now that he has witnessed it himself and he was starting to have another thought about it.

If there’s a way he could mess with time, then he didn’t mind doing it. Take for instance he could isolate himself somewhere where the time was moving around ten to twenty times slower. He would be able to achieve something of twenty years in a year there. Just the thought of this made his blood boil, unfortunately, it was something that was out of reach.

There was also something the Turtle said about Void being from somewhere else.

Grey threw all these to the back of his head, there was no use in thinking about them now. He had more important things to attend to now which was surviving. The Aurora Continent was on the verge of being attacked by the Gnomes, according to what he knew, this was what was referred to as the War of Gods that happened years ago.

Many heroes fell during that way and it was on the verge of happening once again. There’s a chance humans might not survive it this time, or even if they do, he might not necessarily be alive since the Gnomes wanted him dead at all costs.

The cracks on the egg started to increase and before long, a small Dragon head popped out.

The head looked around and placed its eyes on the large Dragon that was looking at it, exhaustion evident on its fate.

”My dearest Eisendrache, I’m afraid I will not stay with you through your journey. You must stay with this human…” Melmera paused as she looked at Grey.

Grey knew she didn’t know his name and he went on to say it.

”Grey Dawson, he will be your guide and also your family. He will take care of you, and you will do the same.”

The little Dragon, Eisendrache didn’t say a word as Melmera said her last words to her child. Eisendrache, a male dragon came out of the egg, a supposedly joyous day was one filled with sadness. His beady eyes were filled with tears as he seemingly knew what was happening. His mother, Melmera was dying, and there was no way to save her.

The human who was standing by the side, Grey Dawson was the person she was handing him over to. She didn’t know his character, but she didn’t have any choice. Having his mother transfer some of her memories to him meant that he was very smart, even for a newborn.

Dragons aren’t like humans who tend to be incapable of doing anything at a young age, especially the types like Eisendrache whose parents transfer some of their memories to.

Melmera knew transferring most of her memories to him would affect his growth, so she only transferred the ones she felt he needed. However, those were enough for him to gain a little information about some things.

Grey didn’t say anything as he watched the mother and son share the last moments.

A few minutes later, Melmera glowed with a brilliant light as two lights came out of her body, a bluish and a darkish light. One shot into Eisendrache’s body while the other went Grey’s way.

’This is the essence, do with it whatever you want.’

Melmera’s voice came with it.

Grey looked at the light, and then at Eisendrache, he shook his head with a wry smile and waved his hand. The light shot into Eisendrache’s body. He had both elements of his mother, but there were two more colors on his horn which meant he had four elements.

This information shocked him to the core. The two elements were the wind and earth element. As much as he wanted the darkness element, he didn’t mind giving it to the little Dragon.

Melmera and Eisendrache were shocked at the decision of Grey.

”I may want benefits, but I’m not heartless. Let him have everything.” Grey said when he saw the look Melmera was giving him.

The look the little Dragon gave him changed slightly as there was a little softness in it.

Eisendrache absorbed everything, and the Dragon which was born only a few minutes ago started to see a change in its cultivation stage.

Eisendrache went from Rank One to the Fourth Rank in the blink of an eye.

Grey watched everything unfold before his eyes. Eisendrache started to grow in size, and before long, the small Dragon was almost the same size as Grey.

One has to know that a fully grown Dragon was well over eight meters long and fifteen meters long.

In the space of a few minutes, Eisendrache went from barely half a meter to close to two meters tall and over four meters long.

As Eisendrache was growing in size, Melmera was turning into lights. Grey could see that she was starting to fade away.

Eisendrache was growing stronger while Melmera grew weaker.

A few minutes later, Melmera faded away, while Eisendrache was over three meters tall in the end.

Grey watched everything with a sad expression. He didn’t expect to see something like this.
