Affinity: Chaos Chapter 537 - Polaris Region

Chapter 537 – Polaris Region

Grey and Sylvia walked into the first city in the Polaris region with broad strides, especially Void who was actually walking mid-air.

Grey and Sylvia found what he was doing quite remarkable, and when asked, his reply was simple.

"Lord cat is awesome, what else matters?" Void asked.

Sylvia laughed, finding Void's pride to be something funny. After a while, she recalled something.

"Those in the Overlord Plane can not fly, why are you able to do so when you're just a Rank Five beast, and why are you able to do so when you're using that attack?" She looked at the duo.

Void could walk mid-air, which meant he had the ability of flight while still being a Rank Five beast, while Grey could actually stand mid-air whenever he was using the skill, 'Meteor Descent'. She initially wanted to ask him about it when she first saw it but forgot. It was only after seeing Void fly that she remembered it.

"I have no idea, you can tell that I can't fly yet, only when I use that move am I able to do it," Grey replied with a raise of his shoulder.

What was worth mentioning was that he didn't learn this move from anyone, he created it himself. Of course, he knew there might've been others who had used it before, but he hadn't seen or heard of anyone who used it.

"I'm awesome, that's enough," Void replied when Sylvia turned her gaze to him.

"You two should be careful when showing off your skills when I'm gone, especially you, Void. Special magical beasts like you are highly sought after, if anyone were to find out about your treasure sensing ability, even if you explain that it is only treasures beneficial to you, they still won't listen," Sylvia warned.

"Alright," The duo nodded.

"Fine, let's search for your next challenge. I recruited a young lady from this region a few months ago, I don't know if she's still here or she has gone to the Middle Continent. I plan to search for her while we're here," Sylvia said as they walked into the city.

The city was bustling with activity, with people walking in and out of it. There were merchants just after the gate that were selling off their products, and people could be seen buying or looking at the items.

Sylvia took Grey to the merchant guild building, it was the fastest way to get information. After paying a small sum, one thousand high-grade essence stones to be precise, which almost sent Grey wild, they got the information they were searching for.

The genius ranked first was recently crowned, after the previous one broke through to the Overlord Plane. The genius was currently on an expedition at a ruin that opened a few days ago.

He wasn't the only one who went there, a lot of the geniuses ranked in the top fifty of the geniuses rankings of the Origin Plane went as well.

The ruin is said to hold an item that helps when breaking through to the Overlord Plane. Although it was rare and valuable, it was only of use to those in the Origin Plane, hence it only attracted those in the Origin Plane.

The few in the Overlord Plane who went there were mostly mercenaries hoping to acquire and sell off the item at an auction. While there were a few who were hired to get the item.

….

"Will you head to the ruin, or will you challenge someone in the Overlord Plane?" Sylvia asked.

"The ruin will be closing in three days time, correct?" Grey asked.

The man telling them the information nodded.

"And it's around the edge of the Polaris region, almost close to when you're leaving the Eastern Continent?" Grey asked.

The man nodded again. These were all things he had stated, he didn't understand why Grey was asking him about these things when he had already told him about them.

"Alright, thank you." Grey said, before turning to Sylvia, "I'll challenge someone in the Overlord Plane first, once I'm done with that, I'll head to the ruin. You can leave when I get there,"

"Hmm, alright, that's not a bad choice. Who knows, you might need this thing to break through to the Overlord Plane," Sylvia said with a sigh.

"I won't, but it wouldn't hurt having it," Grey replied.

Sylvia looked at him, not sure where his confidence was coming from. This was someone who had been trying to break through for a month now, just because he grew stronger over the night, his confidence had shot over the roof.

They asked about the whereabouts of those ranked in the top twenty of the Early stage Overlord Plane geniuses rankings and found out he could only challenge the individual ranked fourteenth since he was the only one who wasn't out on an expedition.

The location of this genius coincidentally aligned with the place Sylvia said she was headed to search for the young lady she recruited.

Without any delays, the duo headed straight for the teleportation array. A long-distance teleportation cost too much, so they had to break it down. Of course, this was Grey's idea, he felt spending so much when he could easily use different teleportation arrays that would reduce the price was better.

Sylvia didn't complain, it wasn't like she was the one paying. Besides, she preferred traveling by flight.

There had been cases where the spatial tunnels crumbled while people were using it, other than a few times when a s.p.a.ce Elementalist would be among the group using it, only about forty percent of the other people had managed to survive it unscathed.

The city they were currently heading to was called Bruges City. It was home to the best forgemasters family in the entire region.

Grey and Sylvia got there within three hours, and without delay, they headed straight to the family where the young man ranked fourteenth was staying.. It was none other than the best forgemasters family.
