Affinity: Chaos

"You're saying there are some Factions that are hidden?" Grey asked after listening to Kyle's words.

Kyle nodded, "Actually, after the great war, most of the top powerhouses were seriously injured. So they're currently slumbering, recuperating. Some of them have woken up, while others are still keeping their strength. If you hadn't been running around all this while, you would've known of all this."

"The Pyrmond Faction was one of the top forces who fought against the invasion at that time. They were also one of the ones who suffered serious damages."

"According to what my father told me, they were almost annihilated. The current top faction really isn't the strongest, it's only called that in name."

Grey listened attentively. He didn't expect Kyle would know this much about the history. Although he had also read some things, most of the information was vague and he didn't really get much from it. Other than knowing the general things that were allowed to the public, he didn't know too much.

"Have you heard of the Heavenly Fate Faction?" Kyle asked out of the blue.

"I've heard of it, but I don't really know much about it." Grey nodded.

Although he didn't know much, the Heavenly Fate Faction could be said to be one of the top Factions not just in the Western Continent, but in the entire Aurora Continent.

"I was preparing to make a trip there. According to what I heard, something happened and since my Family has some connections with them, they said the younger generations could be sent over." Kyle said.

Hearing this, Grey knew that the reason Kyle was telling him was most likely so he would go with him. Kyle was still in the Sage Plane.

"Would they allow a stranger to go with you?" Grey raised the question in his head.

He wouldn't mind going there, it wasn't like he wasn't interested in things like this.

"I can think of a way." Kyle said.

Grey gave it some thought and nodded, if they allowed him to go with them. Then he wouldn't mind going. If not, he would just take it that his time outside was up and he would head back to the Faction.

The duo discussed for a while longer before Kyle left Grey to speak with a few people. Sometime later, he came back with good news, Grey could go with them. It was a little out of his expectations, but he couldn't hide his joy.

Grey didn't say much. He was quite curious as to why they would allow a stranger to go with them.

….

The days went by and it was soon time to leave.

While Grey had been staying here, he was consolidating his realm and didn't go out. He came to Kyle's place after breaking through, so he didn't really have any time to consolidate his realm. Since the opportunity presented itself, he didn't mind doing it here.

Void hadn't been doing anything lately and had been bored. Now that they wanted to go out, he was a little excited.

When they got to the place where the people were gathered, a middle-aged man looked at Grey, after glancing at them he didn't say anything else before teleporting everyone away.

When they entered the spatial tunnel, Grey sensed it and noticed that it was different from his own. He still didn't understand why there was a difference.

During the time he was in Kyle's place, he had been experimenting with a few things as he consolidated his realm. He even noticed that there was a difference in his domain as well, it was stronger than usual.

….

While Grey and Kyle were headed to the Heavenly Fate Faction.

Somewhere in the Western Continent, another figure was preparing to head there as well.

"Father, your injuries aren't fully healed yet. Do you think it's safe to head there?" The figure looked at the frail man standing before him.

"I need to head there. There's something I need there." The frail man said firmly.

Even though he looked like he might die at any moment, he didn't want to let such an opportunity slip by.

"Alright, I'll accompany you, Father. I just broke through to the Elemental Venerable Plane, I should be able to assist you." The figure said.

If Grey were here, he would've recognized this person, the figure was none other than Gilbert.

Gilbert was preparing to head to the Heavenly Fate Faction with his father. According to the information they received, a secret realm opened, well, it's more like the ruins of the last Faction that produced a True God Plane Elementalist. Since that expert, there had not been any other True God Plane Elementalist in the Aurora Continent.

This expert ascended a few hundred years before the invasion. After the invasion, the Faction which was hidden in a secret space was destroyed.

All the members were killed by an unfortunate turn of events during the war. It hadn't been found in years, but now, it seemed to have reappeared. However, there was a limit to the people who could go in. According to the information, the Origin Source there was chaotic and anyone above the Elemental Venerable Plane couldn't enter.

Even those at the Elemental Venerable Plane are also at a risk, they've also created a link with the Origin Source, if they were to use it to amplify their strength too much, then they might risk being killed by the chaotic Origin Source in the secret realm.

….

There were movements all over the Aurora Continent, and even the Middle Continent had movements as well. This was the ruins of the Faction of the last God Plane Elementalist to appear in the Aurora Continent, it was very appealing to everyone.

Even the Pyrmond Faction sent people over.

Grey had been in seclusion, and the moment he came out of seclusion, he left the Faction to break through.

The news of the ruins was only circulated amongst those top experts, other than the news of the competition which those youths knew of, only the top geniuses were aware of these ruins.

The Faction Leader wanted to send Grey over, but he was a little disappointed when he couldn't find him. Unknown to the Faction Leader, Grey was already on his way to the Heavenly Fate Faction.
