Affinity:Chaos

'Who stole my robe?' Grey was dumbfounded.

He already set his eyes on it. How could someone steal something right in front of him and Void?

Without further delay, he rushed over with the space element. He had to make sure he caught the person who dared to steal something he had set his sights on. For someone who had always got what he wanted, it was a rare sight that he was outsmarted by someone else. Other than a few occasions, he had almost always obtained anything he had to fight for.

Not just Grey, but the few people who were hiding in the shadows all chased after the person that stole the robe.

The person was a Space Elementalist, and was definitely in the Elemental Venerable Plane, hence the speed. But with Void and Grey working together, they were certain that they would be able to get the person.

There were also one or two people in the Fifth stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane that was also giving chase.

Only after over five minutes did Grey and the others give up in dejection, they couldn't find the person.

The person not only used the space element to run away but also hid away from others. Even Void and Grey were not able to locate the person.

Just like Grey and Void, the others were frustrated when they couldn't find the person. They didn't know if the person was hidden, or if the person had come out and was standing among them.

Since there was no way to find the person, they could only give up.

"We suffered a loss." Void was at loss. This was something that rarely happened. As long as both him and Grey made a move, then the item was most definitely theirs. Even when there were people who were far stronger than they were, they had still been able to get the item.

Yet, someone in the Elemental Venerable Plane bested them. It was an unfamiliar feeling to them. After so many successes, they didn't know how it felt to be defeated.

Grey was a little better with taking the result of what happened, he only looked around for a while and moved away. It hadn't been long, but someone had already found something good. If this was the case, then this place definitely had a lot of good things. He was curious about the robe, but since he couldn't get it, there was no use in thinking too much about it.

Void complained as they didn't get the item, but he still followed after Grey. They were just around the periphery of the ruin, this meant that there would definitely be good things in the deeper parts of it. All they had to do was to make sure that they reached the deeper parts.

'It's not too dangerous.' Recalling what the Leader of the Heavenly Fate Faction said, Void felt this place was not as dangerous as they made it out to be. Of course, this was just the starting part of it, but he hadn't sensed any dangers up until now. Not even Magical Beasts have attacked. Other than the sky which was already determined as a dangerous place, no other place seemed to have any dangers.

Grey had a different opinion compared to Void. With opportunity came danger, this was something he was aware of, there was a huge chance that the danger that came with the robe might not be too strong, so the combined effort of everyone was able to take care of it, but there was a probability that if they were alone, the danger might be stronger than what they faced together.

The duo continued walking around, they occasionally saw people, but as they ventured deeper, they started to see Magical Beasts, well, he didn't know if they could still be called. Magical Beasts. These beasts seemed to be maniacal, it was almost like they had gone crazy.

They would attack anyone they saw, regardless of the person's strength. Even when the person was a Plane above them, they still attacked.

Whenever they came close to Grey and Void, all the duo did was release their aura and the beasts would make way.

'This bloodline suppression thing of Magical Beasts is strange. I wonder if humans have it as well.' Grey thought to himself.

If humans had such a thing, it would make things complicated. One has to know that even when Void was weak, he could still suppress Magical Beasts stronger than himself due to his superior bloodline. If humans had these as well, then some people at the Early stages of a Plane could suppress those in a higher stage.

Wherever the duo sensed people fighting, they would head over to check it out. Other than the robe, Grey hadn't seen anything that piqued his interest, so he hadn't fought for anything as of now.

They'd been in the ruin for over three hours now, and other than traveling deeper, Grey and Void hadn't done anything else.

….

While Grey and Void were just taking a stroll in the ruin, Klaus had already found an opportunity. He was not alone, Reynolds was there with him as well.

The duo had always liked traveling together whenever they were in places like this. They didn't have as many trump cards as Grey, and they didn't like fighting as much as Alice, so they were together.

"Can we get it?" Reynolds asked as they looked at the building in front.

The building was old, giving off the feeling that it had been standing since the beginning of time.

They could sense a strong chilling essence coming from the place. Whatever was inside definitely had to do with the water element, or at least there was ice in there.

"I have to get it. I might be able to break through to the Elemental Venerable Plane if I get this." Klaus' eyes were glowing, he didn't want to miss this opportunity, but he knew it wouldn't be easy.

He had seen a few Elemental Venerables around the place, luckily, they were in the Early stages of the Elemental Venerable Plane.

"Should we call Grey?" Reynolds asked.

If Grey were to be with them, the chances of them getting the item would be higher.

"No, we've not even separated for up to a day and we're already calling him for help." Klaus didn't agree to it.

They had grown to depend on Grey when it came to things like this. Thinking about it, it wasn't a good thing for them.
