Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 312: [Bonus Chapter] Report Everything!

Sasha Reiss left the Inn accompanied by her group as she headed for the Reiss family compound.

“Why didn’t you just throw him out of the Inn?” One of the young men asked, clearly irritated by Grey’s behavior.

The other three nodded in approval of his suggestion. The brief encounter they had with Grey made them have a bad impression of him since he couldn’t even appreciate Sasha’s kindness.

“Why would I throw him out, did he do anything wrong in going to my Inn?” Sasha asked nonchalantly.

“He couldn’t even say thank you. I think he’s just a freeloader,” One of the ladies replied with a cold snort.

“I’m not too bothered about that. Ezekiel, get someone to follow him, I want to know where he’s staying in Frost City, and if possible, everything you can find out about Zeke Hoover,” Sasha turned to one of the young men before ordering.

“Yes, my lady,” With a bow, the young man called Ezekiel left the group, heading to the right side of the compound.

Void had been relaying everything that had been happening with Sasha and her group to Grey since they left the Inn, he even told him about everything they spoke about since Grey told him to report everything.

Grey was still drinking what was left of his wine when he heard Void’s report. He wasn’t surprised by this since he already knew Sasha would definitely get someone to follow him. The only thing he was thinking about was how he would be able to use Sasha to find out about Alice.

‘Should I ask her directly?’ He asked himself.

If Sasha was Alice’s sister, which seems very likely right now, then she might know where she is. There’s also the probability of her not having a good relationship with Alice because Grey had never heard Alice speaking of any of her siblings before.

He decided to see the outcome of Void following her, if she has any bad relationship with Alice, he might find out. His second option was to find someone who is working in the Reiss family compound to ask. This was all on the presumption that Void was unable to find out anything from Sasha while he’s following her.

Thirty minutes later.

Grey stood up after finishing his drink, heading out of the Inn. After he chatted with Sasha, he noticed most of the people who were at the Inn at that time were all looking at him strangely, especially a group of four. He didn’t bother about them and walked out of the Inn.

As soon as he stepped out of the Inn, four men stood up and walked out as well. When they got out, they looked in the direction Grey faced, before heading in the same direction.

Of the four men, only one looked to be in his twenties, the others looked to be around mid and late thirties. The man in his mid-twenties had a small scar that ran under his left eye. His brown eyes glowed with a murderous glint, and his huge figure scared most of the people who were in their way as they were walking.

Grey was walking casually on the busy street, fully aware of the fact that these men were following him. In fact, they were not the only ones following him, two more people were following him in the shadows.

‘The ones in the shadows should be the ones sent by Sasha, these guys on the other hand should probably be her enemies.’ He thought while walking.

Of the four men, two of them were in the Eighth stage of the Origin Plane, so Grey had no plans of finding out why they were following him. He could fight against one of them, but two was a little too much for him to handle.

He saw a shop that was selling clothes, looking at it interestingly from the outside, he walked inside. The shop wasn’t too big, but it had a variety of clothes. There were over twelve rows in the shop, each row was filled with different types of clothes.

When Grey stepped in, a well-dressed young lady stepped forward to greet him with a friendly smile.

“Hello, sir, I’m Petra, is there anything in particular you’re looking for?” Petra asked after a bow.

Grey was a little taken aback by her question, he rarely went shopping, especially in these kinds of shops. Most of the time he went to buy clothes, he would just get one from the roadside, or a small stall.

“Do you have something for a banquet?” He quickly recovered before asking.

“Yes sir, right this way,” Petra showed him one of the rows in the shops.

Grey followed Petra to one of the rows, he looked at the clothes that she suggested while telling him about the designs as well as who made them. Most of them were made in Frost City, but some were brought from other cities.

While Grey was in the shop, he noticed none of the people following him entered the shop, but they all kept their spiritual senses locked on him.

‘Looks like they can’t cause a scene here,’ Grey thought with a chuckle.

From the appearance of those men, he felt they would come in if this place was ordinary, but seeing how they waited outside, he knew this place was owned by an influential figure in the city.

Grey curiously asked Petra about the store and found out it was owned by a merchant organization. The discovery surprised him, he didn’t think there would be a merchant organization that would be powerful enough to stop two Eighth stage Origin Plane Elementalists.

He was still thinking about the merchant organization when Void suddenly spoke to him.

‘What’s up?’

‘She’s heading into a room,’ Void reported.

‘And?’

‘It’s the same room Alice left her wooden object,’

‘Oh, follow her, maybe she knows something,’

‘I’m already in the room,’

Grey felt somewhat relieved when he heard this. Assuming that Alice and Sasha were to have a close relationship, then he wouldn’t mind taking the risk of contacting her, after all, he had initially decided to take the risk of sneaking into the compound.

Just as Grey was looking at a blue shirt and pants Petra was showing him, he almost stumbled when he heard the next thing Void said.

‘She’s taking off her clothes, I think she wants to take a bath,’

‘She has taken off her clothes and is headed to the bathtub now,’

‘Shit Void! Don’t tell me that!’ Grey yelled at him angrily.

‘But you said to report everything,’ Void replied feeling wronged.
