Affinity:Chaos

Chapter 1446  Leaving The Region

Grey gave the twins a nod and they sent out a few puppets to stop the large wave of water headed their way.

The trio were shocked that their attempt to escape had not only been sabotaged, but their hopes of fighting back against Grey and the twins had been destroyed with it. There was no way they could fight against the twins who had multiple puppets and also Grey who was stronger than they were. As things stand, they might die under the hands of Grey and the twins.

"Kid… why don't we work for you? You can do whatever you did to him to us as well, we'll work for you, do whatever you say." The old man Grey followed here said.

"That's pretty thoughtful, but I don't need you guys."

Grey didn't say anything else and attacked. The twins and their siblings helped out.

….

Back at the forest.

Klaus and the others saw Void come over to take the twins along with their siblings with them, and they knew a battle would definitely start there.

"Why didn't he bring us this time?" Klaus was pissed.

"We're not expendable, they are." Alice explained.

She understood Grey's intentions in carrying the twins and their siblings, and although she would like to help out, she could understand why Grey acted in that manner. He wanted them safe. The attack the old man used was very dangerous and Grey had to take them to a safe place. If Grey was fighting alone, he would've had a better chance fighting against the man than when he was with them. Unless there were more opponents, it's relatively safer and better to fight alone. The origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to N0v3l--B1n.

The group continued discussing for a long time before Grey appeared along with the twins and their siblings, they also brought back the trio they found there. The duo who were killed were left there, and only the trio were brought back. They were still alive, but they all had dull eyes.

"Kill us, what's the use of keeping us alive?" The old man who was an Elder of the Phoenix Faction said.

"That's up to her to decide. I've done my part which was fishing you out." Grey threw them at the feet of Aries.

The old man looked at Aries, eyes filled with sadness.

"Elder, you'll be taken back to the Faction for judgment. You and your accomplices." Aries said.

"Then what about them?" The old man pointed at the twins and their siblings.

"They didn't know what they were doing. They were all under your control. It's best if you leave them out of this." Grey said, "Those guys have no clue what they were doing, and I've taken over the one who was behind it."

Aries looked at Grey, even though she was not in support of this, all this wouldn't have been possible if Grey didn't come. He was the one who stopped Lewis, and got him to contact the person that was hidden in the Faction. Who would've expected things would take such a turn and there was someone else inside the Faction that needed rooting out.

Everything happened in a manner she didn't have control over. She opted to let Grey do what he wanted, and since Grey helped deliver this Elder to her, she was grateful. At least an unknown thorn has been taken out of the Faction.

Grey saw the displeasure in her eyes, but he ignored it, choosing not to explain.

"I also have some information I'll pass on to your Faction. It's about the necromancer's camp. There are two, myself and my friends will deal with one on our way out. The other one is out of our league, that's for your Faction to handle."

Aries' eyes widened when she heard there were two camps. She nodded to Grey's words, grateful that he was able to help them in such a way. Even though he took two necromancers who should've been killed under him, it was clear he wanted to rid the region of necromancers. Also, these people under him will all have to be under control since they do not want to offend their master. All in all, Grey had somewhat eliminated necromancers from their region.

"Let's go. We'll visit the Faction one more time before leaving." Grey said to his friends.

They nodded and headed back to the Faction with the prisoners in tow. Given their speed, it was easy to get back to the Faction grounds.

The event of capturing the Elder took place late in the night, by the time they got back to the Faction, it was already sunrise.

….

The Phoenix Faction.

"He's a necromancer?" The Faction Leader pointed at the old man in shock.

This was one of the most respected Elders in the Faction, he found that allegation astonishing.

"Yes, and he has been aiding other necromancers with acquiring the talents from our Faction and turning them to puppets all for the chance to break through to the Sovereign Plane." Aries explained.

The Faction Leader looked at Aries and then at Grey and the others.

"I'll be leaving with my friends…" Grey told the Faction Leader of the location of the necromancer's camp that had a Sovereign and also told him he would be dealing with the other camp.

The Faction Leader was still in a state of shock when Grey left with his friends.

He decided to take the twins along with him to attack the necromancer's camp. There was no harm in having such a figure with them as they razed the place to the ground.

Back in the Phoenix Faction, there was distrust in the Faction due to the revelation of the Elder being a necromancer. The Faction Leader kept it close and only related it to the few people he was confident in their identities. If there were more Necromancers present in the faction, then they were in trouble.

They were aware there's a chance a necromancer might have creeped into their Faction, but they didn't expect the necromancer to have such a high status.
