Affinity:Chaos

Grey and Aella had awkward expressions while Klaus and Void were laughing their hearts out. Grey knew Klaus did this on purpose, but there was no way he could scold him in front of Aella.

"Oh, it's you, the son of the mayor!" Aella almost exclaimed.

After Klaus revealed he knew Cleo, she knew the sense of familiarity she felt was true, so when she calmed down while Klaus and Void were laughing, she thought hard about where she saw him.

Klaus' handsome face wasn't something one could see every day, and there was only one person she had seen that had left a deep impression on her with his facial appearance other than Grey and Klaus, and it was the son of Lunar City's mayor.

Cleo who Klaus was speaking about, was her boyfriend. Her family and his family had close ties, and they had been friends since they were young. About a year ago, Cleo took her to a gala held in Lunar City, that was where she met the charming Klaus.

Being the son of the mayor made Klaus a highly respected figure at the gala. She didn't expect her boyfriend would be friends would such an individual, and because of how free Klaus was, made her have a great impression of him. Only, it had been so long that she saw him, so she wasn't able to recognize him immediately. The fact that he was able to recognize her shocked her, to say the least.

"Yeah, I knew you would recall me. I mean, who would forget seeing such a face." Klaus said with a playful laugh.

"If you're standing next to him, it's hard to remember you." Aella giggled while pointing at Grey.

After knowing that Klaus knew her boyfriend, she was freer with him, especially after seeing his nature. There are only a few people in the world that would have a status like Klaus yet still be so carefree. If not for the fact that she recognized him, she wouldn't have believed he was the son of the mayor of such a big city.

The trio spoke for a little while before bidding farewell to each other.

On the way back to their living quarters.

"I know you did that on purpose." Grey said while they were walking.

"Did what?" Klaus pretended like he had no clue about what Grey was talking about.

"You... I really don't know what to do with you." Grey shook his head in defeat.

Klaus was just a shameless individual, and there was no way he could get him to admit that he did it on purpose.

"It's not my fault you misunderstood me." Klaus said with a grin.

Grey wanted to argue, but thinking about it, was it truly Klaus' fault that he misunderstood him? The answer was no.

"Where have you been for the past two days?" Grey changed the topic as they approached Reynolds' house.

"Oh, just bonding with my dad. You know I'm all he has, so he wanted to know about everything in the trial land." Klaus scratched his head with a sad smile.

They continued speaking as they got to Reynolds' house. They walked right in without knocking. Other than Alice, the others pretty much act this way in each other houses.

"Hey Grey, I see you've finally been able to bring him back." Reynolds said while walking out from the kitchen.

"Nope, he came back on his own." Grey said as he took a seat.

Klaus looked at Reynolds and couldn't help but ask, "What were you doing in the kitchen?"

"Well, you see... I was trying to cook something." Reynolds revealed which threw Klaus in a fit of laughter.

"Let me tell you something bud, there are things you can do, and there are things you can't. Cooking wasn't made for everyone, just let Grey do it." Klaus said seriously.

Grey flicked his right hand and wind blew in Klaus' face, messing up his hair.

"But there's no harm in trying." Reynolds shrugged.

"Hmm, I'll leave you to your demise then." Klaus sneered.

He didn't know why Reynolds was even bothering, if it were something else, he would say there was a possibility he might be able to become an expert in it, but as for cooking, he should forget about it. Only monsters like Grey who were blessed by the God of cookery could attain something like that. And even if by some means Reynolds was able to learn how to cook, its taste would be either average or below average.

"So, what are your plans now?" Klaus asked after Reynolds sat down.

"I'm thinking about joining the empire's forces. Unlike you, I don't have a good family background, so this is the best option for me and my family. Although, I'm also thinking about becoming an Instructor. This is why I want to go back home and discuss it with my parents." Reynolds said.

At his current age and Plane, he could take decisions for himself. But sometimes, it's good to seek advice from those older than you. Once his parents tells him what they feel is the right choice for him to make, he would analyze it as well.

Klaus nodded, expecting Reynolds to make such a decision.

"How about you?" Klaus asked looking at Grey.

"I've not really made a decision yet." Grey smiled lightly, "I think it's best we talk about this with Alice as well. It would be bad if she's not included in this conversation."

"Yeah, I have an announcement to make. We should head over there now." Klaus said, his previous playful smile was gone.

Grey's gaze turned intent before nodding, just as they got to the door to leave Reynolds' house.

"What's burning?" Grey asked after sniffing the air.

"Nothing." Reynolds waved before trying to open the door.

Klaus' previous serious expression was gone because he was currently laughing.

"I knew you didn't have any chances of becoming a great cook." He laughed out.

"Shit! My food!" Reynolds exclaimed before dashing back into the kitchen.
