Affinity: Chaos

1786  Fools Don't Need Apologies

After asking this question, Sir Xavier's eyes darted around and finally landed at the place where Grey was seated. 'Could this be his doing?' At the thought of this, his facial expression turned even more sour. If Grey could achieve something like this, then he's definitely not an easy figure. However, his gaze turned firm as the faint fear that was slowly creeping into his heart. So what if Grey was tricky? This was Raging Flame City, and no one other than the top experts from Raging Flame Faction could act however they wanted here. He knew all the geniuses from the Faction and knew that Grey wasn't one of them. With this thought in mind, he readjusted his mindset and even started to once again exude a majestic aura. "Since our guest doesn't want you to leave, then accompany me to see him." He didn't try to get the Black Protector to leave again. Since he couldn't leave the last time, there's no way he could leave now. Inside the building. Grey was still seated in the Hall where he was drinking his tea. He didn't even raise his head as the group of Sir Xavier entered the Hall. He kept using the spoon to stir the tea as he watched it with interest. Sir Xavier didn't expect that Grey would react like they didn't even exist. At first he didn't want to speak after entering and only walked in, taking a seat as he kept his eyes on Grey, with the Blue and Black Protectors standing on either side of him. However, a minute went by without Grey giving them a glance, much less utter a word to them. He was seemingly entranced by the tea he was staring at and didn't bother with the appearance of the group of three. He would occasionally stir the tea, before taking occasional sips. Veins started to appear on the head of Sir Xavier, but he calmed himself and decided to initiate the conversation. "I wonder where Your Excellency is from?" He looked at Grey with a forced smile. Although he didn't like Grey's act of ignoring him, he didn't want to fight without at least knowing his background. Since Grey is stronger than the two Protectors, and after seeing the method he used to stop the Black Protector from leaving, he felt a bit apprehensive. The McCall Family could be dealt with later, if Grey's background is something that even his father the City Lord couldn't offend, then he would be in serious trouble. With all these things in mind, he opted for the safer route. Besides, as long as Grey was from a top force, he will surely announce it to show his strong background. Grey, however, took a glance at Sir Xavier and replied, "I'm just from a small city, no one important."
