Affinity: Chaos Chapter 933 Fighting For Rewards

Chapter 933 Fighting For Rewards

"It still didn't work." Grey muttered as the body of one of the bandits dropped to the ground, lifeless.

Presently, there are eight corpses on the ground. Of the twelve bandits, only four were left alive after Grey's continuous experiments. Although it was a little brutal for him to kill them in such a manner. He didn't have much of a choice. Necromancers are few and far between, he didn't know when he would meet another necromancer. And there's also the possibility that the next necromancer he meets will be stronger than he was.

So he had to do with these bandits. They were terrorizing the world anyway.

After justifying himself, he continued with his experiments. According to what Sega told him, he would need to carefully use the life force of people and slowly use it to wipe off the mark. The method in putting the mark was quite easier, however, he needed to create a method for himself since he didn't have much of a choice.

Void watched from the side, staring at Grey with a bland expression. He didn't have any problems with what Grey was doing, they would kill the bandits anyway.

Grey proceeded onto the next person who was staring at him with hateful eyes. They were all conscious and could see how Grey was slowly killing them. It was a painful thing watching their comrades die in front of them, but what was more painful was the fact that they knew they would meet the same fate in a short time.

Other than hatred, there was also deep fear in their eyes. They didn't want to die in such a manner. Unfortunately, they were powerless against Grey.

Taking the next person, Grey sent his spiritual consciousness into the body of the man, and before long, the life essence of the man slowly seeped out before forming a spiral seal in the air. After the seal was completed, it shot into Grey's back, entering the upper right shoulder.

Grey focused entirely on the mark on his back, waiting for any changes.

After some time, he shook his head with a sigh.

"Still not this way."

Whenever he said this word, the others who were alive would feel untold fear since they knew one of them would be next. At the moment, the remaining three people were praying that Grey was successful on the next person, this way, at least two of them would make it.

Grey didn't continue immediately, rather, he walked to the side and sat down with his eyes closed. He started to a.n.a.lyze the technique once again.

Time slowly went by and that day ended. Grey was unable to get the technique. Only one of the bandits was left alive and he was scared out of his wits, he couldn't even open his eyes. He watched his comrades die, and now he was the only one left. The killer was staring at him with his unforgiving eyes.

They had all begged, it was to no avail. He didn't know what else he could do.

Just like the others, he met with the same fate, dying under Grey's hands.

"A shame, they're all dead. I feel I'm getting closer now." Grey shook his head in disappointment before turning his eyes to Void.

When Void heard his words and met Grey's eyes, he hastily said, "Don't even think about it."

"What? Scared? Grey asked with a smirk.

Void didn't respond, but he created a larger distance between them. He wouldn't give Grey the chance to use him for his experiments.

"Why would you even think that I would want to use you?" Grey was a little surprised by Void's att.i.tude.

Just like the last time, Void didn't bother to answer him.

Grey laughed before walking out with Void carefully keeping his distance.

"Stop playing around, we need to get moving. I've already wasted a day trying to create this technique." He turned to Void with a serious expression.

Now he understood why no one had been able to remove the mark from anyone marked. There had been multiple cases of powerful experts trying to remove this, but it has proven to be impossible.

The duo continued their journey, they still had to pa.s.s through the Region which was currently at war. Maybe he would see people he would use for his experiments there. In such a chaotic place, there were bound to see people who would want to cause troubles. All he had to do was to take care of them and use them for his experiment.

His greatest concern at the moment was how to get rid of this mark on his body that had made him a beacon for necromancers within a specific range. What was worse was that he didn't know the range of the current mark.

…

One month later.

Grey and Void were standing in front of a city gate. They had gotten to the Laurel Region which was in chaos due to the ongoing war. With their skills, they naturally didn't need to fear too many people. In the Aurora Continent, the Sage Plane had the majority of the people.

Those in the Elemental Venerable and Sovereign Plane didn't get too involved. In this current battle, the higher ranks not involved, only those from the Peak of the Sage Plane below.

They entered the city after much difficulties, after roaming around, Grey got the major scoop of what was happening and what the current battlefield looked like. Since he was staying in the territory of one of the Families they was at war, he could be safe there as long as he didn't go against the rules set there.

"What do we do now?" Void asked after the duo entered the room they were staying in the Inn.

"Nothing. I don't want to cause any trouble, it'll not be good if I were to have a clash with these people over something like this. I'll continue after we get to the other Regions. Of course, if the opportunity arises here, I'll definitely take it." Grey replied.

…

The next day.

The opportunity Grey hoped for arose in a surprising manner. The city he was staying in was one of the major strongholds for the battle, but since it was also a route to leave this area, a few people were allowed inside.

The city was on the verge of being attacked, and from what Grey heard, the residents are told to either evacuate, or join them in the battle.

Thinking of the possibility that no one above the Sage Plane would be involved, he didn't mind fighting alongside those from this city. Also, there would be rewards according to their accomplishments!

It was an odd occurrence since most places that were at war wouldn't want to depend on others for their battles. It would be a catastrophic if these people were to double-crossed.

Grey went on to register for the battle, on getting there, he noticed that the people who came to register were very small. When the general in charge noticed Grey's cultivation stage, he knew he was a genius from a top Faction, after seeing his badge, he confirmed that he was from the Pyrmond Faction.

Although the Pyrmond Faction was far away, it was still pretty famous some decades back, so it's name spread all the way to this Region.

The general was also in the Sage Plane, the only difference was that he was at the Peak, while Grey was in the Early stages.

The general didn't forget to warn them about the danger of getting involved.

Everyone knew what was at stake, they might lose their lives, this was also one of the reasons why most of the residents there didn't apply for the battle.

With his strength, he was one of the few people who was given the green light to fight in the forefront of the battle, as per his request.

Grey followed the general since they would be in the same group. Outside the city gate, hundreds of people could be seen dressed in armors, prepared to fight.

The warriors from the city stood on the city wall, staring down at their opponents. They all had fiery eyes as they were prepared to explode with all their might in a short moments notice.

The general flew into the air, along with all those in the Sage Plane.

When they took off, those in the Overlord Plane and below charged down, their opponents were on the ground.

Grey picked an opponent in the Third stage of the Sage Plane just like himself.

'Void, try and see what you can get from these people's camp. Capture as many people as you can.' He instructed while fighting against the lady in front of him.

Void nodded and disappeared from sight.

The lady Grey was fighting against was a little shocked and looked around vigilantly, fearful that Void wanted to sneak behind her and attack.

Grey kept his abilities below par, only using the fire element for now.
