Affinity: Chaos Chapter 955 The Burchard Family

955 The Burchard Family

Grey and Void entered the city which was quite lively as they walked around, they searched for news of any item that might be able to help with Arya's brother's injury. This was the Middle Continent, after all, it was regarded as the best place in the entire Aurora Continent, so it was natural that he was a little hopeful about being able to find it.

Entering the city this time, they only wanted to explore this place for the time being. They weren't there to cause any trouble. Grey even made sure to warn Void multiple times that he was not allowed to cause any trouble or else he would be punished.

Void could only agree to this since he had no choice. Even if he wanted chaos, he knew this was not the place to do so. They just entered the city, but he was already seeing people in the Elemental Venerable Plane.

'This place really has what it takes to be ranked first amongst the other Continents.'

Grey and Void concluded in their heads.

They moved around for a little while and Grey was a little upset that he didn't know where the young man who attacked him was from. He didn't ask much about them since at the time, he wasn't too interested in joining the compet.i.tion for the Burchard Family, only after he was attacked and almost killed did the thought of revenge flash through his head.

He was almost killed with a single blow, this was something he would never let go of, not for anything in this world!

'I recall Sylvia saying they are the second strongest Faction. It shouldn't be too hard to find him then.' Grey thought to himself.

And truly, after asking around, he got to know the name of the second strongest Faction in the Aurora Continent, the Nether Faction.

It wasn't that hard to get information on the young man who attacked him at that time as well. Actually, he found out that the young man, although strong, was not the strongest genius below twenty-five years of age from the Nether Faction, rather, it was a youth called Bill.

Bill is said to be the strongest below the Elemental Venerable Plane. It was even publicly acclaimed that he had exchanged blows with an Elemental Venerable and lived to tell the tale. Of course it was unknown if it was fabricated or not.

Presently, Bill was already at the Peak of the Sage Plane, preparing for his breakthrough to become an Elemental Venerable, while the young man who attacked Grey was only in the Seventh stage of the Sage Plane.

Finding out that the young man was still in the Seventh stage disappointed Grey. With his current strength, even without using the Fusion State, he had confidence in being able to defeat the young man.

How did he know that the person who attacked him was not Bill? He just had the feeling. From the description of the duo, he felt Bill wasn't as arrogant as the other figure who attacked him. The person who attacked him was clearly arrogant to his bones, hence, he wouldn't have attacked him, a n.o.body.

The only reason this young man did it was to scare him away from the compet.i.tion.

Grey and Void stayed a little while longer before Grey finally decided to ask about the Burchard Family. He got to find out that they were staying in three cities from his current location.

Thinking up to this point, he decided to head in that direction, while also searching for interesting things to do.

…

Two weeks later.

Cale City.

This was the city under the jurisdiction of the Burchard Family. Just like the first city Grey entered when he came to the Middle Continent, this one was also busy, filled with activities, as well as gossip.

Before going to search for Sylvia, Grey decided it was best to get the latest gist around as well.

Two days pa.s.sed in this fashion. Unfortunately, Grey didn't get any news about the Burchard Family. Apparently, they were very mysterious and secretive.

However, Grey got to find out that Sylvia was not in the city which came as a shock to him. Given the fact that the time for the compet.i.tion was almost upon them, it was shocking that she was not in the city.

'Could she have returned and no one knows about it?' He thought to himself.

The possibility of this happening was quite high.

He didn't dilly-dally any longer and headed in the direction of the Burchard Mansion, he would only find out if she was around when he got there.

…

Grey and Void soon appeared in front of a large building, staring at the mansion, they couldn't help but nod their heads. It might not be as big as the other ones they had been to, but its design was one of the best. Not just that, but just by standing outside, Grey could feel the abundant essence inside.

They walked to the big gate and Grey was about to knock when someone walked out. The figure was dressed in guards' clothing, so it was easy to guess his ident.i.ty.

"Who are you?" The guard asked softly.

"My name's Grey…" After saying this, Grey paused, he didn't know how to address Sylvia.

Although she was quite powerful, she was still relatively young. If Grey's guess was correct, then she should be above twenty-seven, but not above thirty-two.

"You're Grey?" The guard asked with a hint of surprise.

Seeing the guard's expression, Grey was a little taken aback, but he still gave a nod.

"Alright, come in. The Lady had already told us of your arrival. She's not around now, but she will be coming back soon." The guard was already aware of Grey's ident.i.ty from the moment he saw him, he only wanted to confirm.

According to Sylvia's instructions, a youth who could almost be called beautiful would come looking for her before the compet.i.tion and his name was Grey. Seeing Grey's appearance from the start already reminded the guard of Sylvia's words, after Grey introduced himself and paused, the guard didn't need any more words from him.

Grey on the other hand didn't think he would be allowed in just like that. Sylvia wasn't even around!
