Affinity:Chaos

The moment Oliver, Blake, and Klaus left the Academy, the Crowned Prince gave the order for Grey to be found. The Instructors started to search for him, but after he hid in Chris' valley, it was impossible to locate him. They wasted weeks searching for Grey, but they didn't get any result.

The Crowned Prince wasn't sure if Grey gave his friends a drop of the Great Earth Essence Liquid, but he couldn't let it go without investigating. With Grey and Klaus currently impossible to find, he set his eyes on the other two, Alice and Reynolds.

Alice was the daughter of a prestigious and powerful family, it wouldn't be easy to get her, Reynolds on the other hand, was a piece of cake.

One week before Grey left Chris' valley.

Eternal City.

Reynolds could be seen walking leisurely in the busy city with his hands behind his head, a young boy could be seen walking behind him, they had a striking resemblance, with the younger one having blue hair, while Reynolds had brown short hair.

"Big bro, where are we going?" Carl asked tugging on Reynolds' shirt.

"Huh?" Reynolds stopped and looked at Carl before smiling, "I have no idea, I just wanted to take a stroll."

"Oh!" Carl replied before looking at the ground with a sad face.

"What? You want to do something else?" Reynolds asked while squatting to the height of Carl.

"Uhmm… uhmm…" Carl fidgeted while looking at his fingers which he was rotating around each other.

"Come on, tell big bro, you know I will do whatever you want," Reynolds said while ruffling Carl's hair.

"Really?!" Carl asked with shining eyes.

"Well, not everything, but I'll try my best," Reynolds said, scratching his head awkwardly.

He had to tell Carl he couldn't do everything. It would be awkward if he asked him to do something he couldn't do.

"Okay. I want to watch big bro train." Carl said with sparkling eyes.

"Just that?"

Carl nodded enthusiastically, waiting for Reynolds' reply with a little hint of nervousness.

"I can't practice in the city," Reynolds said with his hand on his chin which caused a look of disappointment to appear on the face of Carl. He smiled before continuing, "But, I'm totally free to practice outside the city.

A smile crept into Carl's face when he heard this.

"Come, little man, let big bro show you how powerful he is," Reynolds said proudly before lifting Carl up and placing him on his shoulder.

Carl laughed happily as they headed to the city gates.

Reynolds was genuinely happy, this was the longest he had stayed with his family since joining the Academy. His younger brother was only two years old when he joined the Academy, and now he was already very close to eight years old. His parents were beside themselves when they learned he would be staying for an extended period this time.

Reynolds took Carl out of the city and headed for the open field that was not too far from the city. It was a hidden place where he could perform most of his moves freely without fear of destroying anything.

He placed Carl on a boulder before saying, "Sit here and watch how awesome your big bro is,"

Carl nodded excitedly, waiting for Reynolds to begin his performance, it was almost like he was waiting for a performer in a show.

Reynolds turned around and breathed out heavily, a serious expression appeared on his face, and just as he was about to make lightning appear, he paused and looked at the south. He could sense some people coming in his direction, and the strongest amongst them was in the Fifth stage of the Origin Plane.

'Huh? People in the Origin Plane,' He thought to himself, a little taken aback.

Eternal City was not a big city, if the cities in the empires were ranked, it would be a mid-ranked city at most. The Mayor was an Origin Plane expert, and the number of Origin Plane Elementalists in the city could be counted on just one hand.

He quickly turned to Carl, "Hey little man, we might have to go home sooner than expected,"

Carl wanted to refute, but on seeing Reynolds' serious expression, he shut his mouth. He knew since Reynolds brought him here, it meant that he wanted to show him what he asked for.

Reynolds smiled before grabbing hold of Carl and heading towards the city. He didn't know what those people wanted, and even if they wanted to cause trouble, he wasn't scared. But with Carl here, he didn't want any accidents to occur.

He suddenly noticed that as soon as they started walking to the city, one of the people from the group hurried towards him. He didn't lose his cool, walking at the same pace, he held onto Carl's and tightly. If things were to go wrong, he would prioritize the safety of his younger brother above everything else.

It didn't take the person who was running after him two minutes before he caught up.

"Hello, you must be Reynolds," The young man called out from behind them.

The young man was putting on a blue fitted shirt and trousers, with a golden eagle-like insignia imprinted on the chest of the shirt. The young man looked to be around his mid-twenties but had already reached the Third stage of the Origin Plane. From how he was able to quickly catch up, and the wind element rotating around him, it wasn't hard for Reynolds to guess that he was a Wind Elementalist.

Reynolds stopped and turned to look at the young man coolly, there wasn't a change in his expression. If Klaus saw him in this current state, he would definitely curse at him for trying to act like a cool guy.

After studying the young man carefully, he asked calmly, "Yes, how may I help you?"

"We're from the empire's forces. You were recommended by an expert who met you some time ago, the Crowned Prince sent us here to come to ask if you would like to join us since you haven't given a reply yet." The young man explained the purpose of his coming to Reynolds.

"Oh, the Crowned Prince," Reynolds said with a surprised and excited look appearing on his face.

The young man nodded with a smile, waiting for Reynolds to continue.
