The Tale of the Void Emperor

Athan was inside the cave and was using his soul sense on the square slate while holding the chakram-wheel in his right hand.

Arcued was sitting at the periphery of the cave while looking out in the sky.

' Boring...'

He had his newly acquired 3-star dagger in his hand, but he can't bring his full power now since he was still in Tier-2 order base.

' Why does Athan want to learn the weapon order technique of this chakram when he can't even use it? He can only use his weapon physically since he is also in a Tier-2 order base like me. '

He glanced at Athan for a moment before looking out once again, ' Who cares. I got a powerful ally, and that's the main point. '

Athan knew that he could not inject his chaos force or order force inside 3-star weapons, so they were useless to him, but he just wanted to comprehend and grasp the initial stage of the weapon order technique.

He took five hours to comprehend its initial stage and even he was surprised at his speed, ' It looks like after taking a good rest of one month, I am in better shape to comprehend. This would normally take me twenty hours to a day to comprehend. '

Of course, This was not as complicated as 5-star techniques. At most, He felt like what he comprehended was on par with the difficulty of 1-star order techniques.

Suddenly, A light shot out from the slate and entered inside Athan's head.

He got some information about this weapon which caused a smile to form on his face.

' Blanoir, The Hell Shredder...And it looks like I can separate this wheel-chakram into two from the middle. Hmmm...So that's why there is an edgy curved blade as born on both sides of this chakram-wheel's surface. Great. '

Blanoir, The Hell Shredder was the name of this chakram-wheel weapon. He found out that he can separate this wheel from the middle to make two chakram-wheels, but he can't do it right now as he needs to inject order force inside it, which he can't right now.

He then checked his progress in Harmony of Giant.

' Hmmm...I am close to finishing the second stage of harmony of giant, but it will still take a month before I actually finish it. I also can't sit in meditation and started comprehending the final level order of Aegis Starwood here since it will take many days, and It's impossible to stay in one place for even a day in this chaos phenom dimension. Guess, It's time to continue the journey. '

He put the chakram-wheel and the stone slate back into his void region before walking out of the cave, " Let's go, Arcued. Your formation doesn't need to be destroyed this time because I finished what I wanted to do. "

" Ohh...It's been only five hours. Anyway, It's good that my formation is saved. We can use it at another time. "

*Crackle...Crackle*

Athan paused his footsteps and looked at Arcued, who also looked at Athan with wide eyes, " No way! "

" Let's go! "

*Boooooom...*

The hill trembled and blasted into pieces as Athan and Arcued hurridly summoned their chaos beasts and flew away.

After flying, They saw that the hill was destroyed, and there was not even a spec of the formation left beside the hill.

This yellow lightning was not as powerful as the red and black lightning that he encountered before. That's why he decided to stay here.

Shaking his head, Athan commanded Skymare Tingale to turned around and spoke, " Let's go. "

Arcued nodded with a sad face as he wanted to cry, but no tears came out.

Just when he thought that the lifespan of his formation was extended, It was destroyed.

' Sigh...'

They flew for a few hours before suddenly sensing a powerful presence up ahead. Arcued hurriedly used his order technique to lower and hide their presence.

Athan sensed this and nodded. Although he could completely erase his presence even better than this order technique with his abyssal darkness, this order technique was also not too bad.

They both flew near it and saw a giant and beautiful butterfly that was even bigger than Athan's Skymare Tingle.

This butterfly was fighting against a person with two red horns with black stripes that went vertical to both sides after growing a bit.

He had a tail growing out of his back that was like a spring. This person and his chaos beast were fighting against this giant colorful butterfly.

All three were in Tier-3 order base, with the butterfly exuding the most powerful aura. It was even a bit stronger than Skymare Tingale.

" What should we do, Athan? "

Athan narrowed his eyes and observed the fight for a few moments before saying, " Wait for three minutes and then kill both parties. "

Arcued was speechless and spoke with hesitation, " But...He is in Tier-3 order base and from those two chaos beasts...That butterfly is peak-stage 3-star, and that flying ant-like beast is middle-stage 3-star. "

Athan looked at Arcued with a plain face and deadpan eyes, " Do you think I can't see that? "

" Ehh.." Arcued formed a wry expression, " No...I don't mea-"

" Just do what I say, and we can kill them without suffering any injuries. After three minutes, We will command our chaos beasts to attack that ant-like chaos beast. You and I will attack that guy with strange horns. As for the butterfly chaos beast? Just ignore it. "

Arcued was confused and asked, " But won't that butterfly chaos beast attack us if we ignore it? "

Athan shook his head, " No. It will either run away or attack the guy who was attacking it, Not us. "

" I see...You are right. It's not as intelligent as that guy and us. But If we attack the butterfly first, then that vertical-horn guy might attack us instead. "

Athan nodded before he laid out his plan on how to attack.

After hearing this plan, Arcued was shocked and shook his head, " Why? Why me? Instead of me, You should take my place since I have this technique to hide my presence. "

Athan grinned at him with his eyes exuding sharpness and oppressive aura, " Can you kill in one shot? Do you have the confidence or ability to wound him fatally? "

Arcued shrank his neck while shaking his head, " I...I don't. But, I have this tech- "

" Cut the crap. I have an even better way to hide my presence. Your technique has a flaw, and you know it already. Once you started using your chaos force or order force to use an order technique, You won't be able to hide your presence, and he will sense you easily. "

" But..."

" No Buts. If you want to earn my trust, then do as I say. Show some guts and believe in me. I will definitely kill that vertical horn guy in one shot. "

Hearing that, Arcued was still a bit doubtful, " Are you sure? "

Athan's eyes turned cold, " Are you doing it or not? "

Arcued thought for a moment as he looked at Athan and remembered his means.

" Fuck! Let's do it. I will go first and distract him with my appearance in the scene while you will hide your presence with whatever your technique is and one-shot him, right? "

Athan smiled and nodded, " Correct. I am going first and after exactly one minute and thirty seconds, Command your chaos beast to attack his chaos beast and dash towards him with your most powerful order technique. Go all out against him. "

Pausing here, Athan glanced at the ongoing fight and continued, " Before he gets a chance to attack, I will deal him a killing blow. "

After he finished speaking, He commanded his Skymare Tingale to go inside the medallion before he coated himself in abyssal darkness.

He then descended on the ground before moving towards the fight that was ongoing in the sky.

Arcued eyes turned determined as he muttered, " let's fucking do this. "

One minute and thirty seconds passed as he commanded his giant parrot-like beast with two heads and two fat wings to attack the ant-like chaos beast.

" Haaaaaaa..." Arcued shouted loudly while praying inside and dashed towards the vertical horned guy.

He conjured his order technique that attracted the most attention and packed much power.

A giant red orb that released from his mouth with silver whirling force inside it and shot towards the vertical horned guy who was also startled and hurriedly prepared the defense and attack at the same time.

The butterfly chaos beast took this chance to run away since it was not attacked in any way.

Athan clicked his tongue seeing that, but then he looked at the vertical horn guy since he was the main target and flew up before taking out his spear and coating it in entire black with his abyssal darkness. He also infused order force and chaos force inside it to execute his order technique, Sumireas Slash.

' Die. '

Before the vertical horned guy could release his attack, Athan's spear flew out at lightning-fast speed from behind him.

*Swooooosh...BOOOM..*
