Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 825 l've offended A Lot Of People

Grey walked out of the Faction gate, heading in the direction of his mission. He appreciated the young lady's goodwill in warning him about the dangers of the mission, but since he needed the points, and knew he would be safe, he took it anyway, against her will.

One of the things that gave him confidence in this mission was that the greatest issue with the mission was poison miasma. Of all the things, this was one of the few things he was not afraid of. He could even send out miasma. Since gaining the ability, he had only tried it out once. When he recalled this, he felt a bit regretful not using it on the horned race.

The timeframe for the mission was around two weeks, and the young lady said she would stay there till Grey returned. She felt Grey was being too proud, so she wanted to see him when he returned as not only a failure, but also injured.

The main reason she warned him was due to the unity of the Faction, since Grey wanted to be an ungrateful person, then she would let him suffer. It was his choice to begin with.

"I think you irritated her." Void chuckled.

"It's her choice." Grey replied.

On his way out, he saw Keith returning to the Faction.

"Heading out?" Keith walked up to Grey.

"Yeah, I'm out of points." Grey replied.

"I figured. See you when you return." Keith patted his shoulder before walking into the Faction. He was just returning from a mission, and he wanted to report it before his time was up.

Grey nodded before he continued his journey.

According to the map, it would take him around three days to get to the location of the herb.

Three days went by in the blink of an eye.

Grey was currently seated in a town close to where the floating clover was located. Grey had read about this floating cover from one of the books he read, it was a powerful medicinal plant, however, it only grew on places with thick miasma. Getting it was extremely difficult.

'Do you sense it as well?' Grey asked Void telepathically as he took a sip of the wine he was drinking.

Since leaving Klaus, he rarely drank wine. When he got here, they only sold wine, so he had no other option.

'Yeah, however I can't tell how powerful they are.' Void replied.

Grey continued drinking his wine, when he was done, he paid for it and left. After leaving the Tavern, he headed toward the west, the floating clover was located in that direction.

While he was in the Tavern, he heard that this was the worst time to venture into that place because the strength of the miasma increased during this period. He would need to wait for one week if he wanted to enter. For Grey, he didn't care if the miasma was on its highest point, it wouldn't cause him any harm.

After leaving the town, he sensed some people rushing toward him, however, they were hiding their presence. He already sensed them the previous day, so he wasn't too bothered. The fact that he could sense them showed that they were at most in the Overlord Plane. Well, so he hoped.

After walking for over one thousand kilometer, the people came out. It consisted of seven people, each at the Peak of the Overlord Plane.

"Who are you people?" Grey asked calmly.

He wasn't feeling threatened by them, after all they were all in the Overlord Plane. He could tell these people were stronger than a regular Peak Overlord Plane Elementalist, each of them was almost on the same level as those beasts he fought against, so fighting against seven of them would be difficult for him.

"You offended someone you shouldn't." One of them said.

"I've offended a lot of people, do you mind telling me which one? At least that way I'll know who to kill." Grey said coldly.

"You don't deserve to know." The man stated and rushed at Grey.

The other six rushed after him as well.

Grey smirked when he saw this and nodded his head while making a strange hand symbol.

The gravity suddenly increased and the people rushing at him felt their bodies grow heavier.

"What's happening, I thought she said he could only do this within five meters of himself?" One of the men panicked.

"Maybe he hid his true ability, but we will still kill him." The man leading them said.

"Hehe, you're dead." Grey chuckled and Void appeared beside him. Void was not the only person that appeared by his side, three more figures appeared by him as well, they were identical, with their eye colors being different.

It was none other than the horned men he captured when he entered their realm. He managed to subdue them, and they agreed to work with him.

Of course he took some precautions before agreeing to it. He placed an array in their hearts and horns, the moment they tried anything funny, they would die immediately. At first, they refused, but when they realized Grey didn't mind killing them, they finally agreed. Besides, this was better than dying.

Grey was stunned when he found out that they could hide their horns from people. He placed the trio on different sides and with the help of Void and a new array he created, he could use the gravitational field without them powering it.

The short time the horned men had spent with him had been nothing but shocking. They were amazed by his abilities.

The appearance of the trio stunned the group who wanted to attack Grey. After sensing that they were at the Peak of the Overlord Plane like them, they felt they could defeat them. They also felt the array had an effect on all of them.

Grey and the horned men exchanged glances before charging at the men. The horned men prefered physical battles, and Grey was also a fan of it as well, so they started a brawl with these seven men.
