The Tale of the Void Emperor

Actually, Avelia was telling ecchi stuff to Lily, like how they will do that and do this tonight with Athan and disappear all of his exhaustion and pent-up desire that was stored for decades.

They didn't want to tell Mimi about that stuff because if they said it, they felt that that would occupy her mind, and her target of affection would probably become Athan.

It was not like they were against it, but they knew that Athan would never be able to see Mimi as such since he had always treated her as his sister. So until Mimi finds someone else attractive and falls in love with someone, it is better to keep her in the dark about it.

...

After everyone knew the details about Grand Meet, Lily asked with a frown, "so...Athan, you and Avelia are going to participate in it?"

Her fists were clenched in frustration again because...She was not strong enough!

She didn't even qualify to participate as one has to be Supremacy existence to take part in the Grand Meet as someone's supporter.

"I will participate!" Avelia said as she looked at Athan with burning eyes, "you will not go alone this time, ok?"

Athan wryly smiled as he knew that there was no use convincing Avelia to stay back, "fine."

"But I will have to ask if there is a spot," Athan said as he took out a comm crystal and told Komin and others to come into this house for a meeting.

Avelia eyed Lily as she singled something and talked with her telepathically, 'Lily, you prepare a good place for us. I will take Athan there after this meeting.'

Lily blushed slightly, but she instantly returned to normal and nodded strongly before speaking, "Ahem, Athan. We will be returning to training since we can't participate in the Grand Meet or whatever."

As such, Lily, Huarin, Dreevindo, and Mimi left and returned to do their different training in different training areas of this Thousand Deaths Valley.

Thousand Deaths Valley's territory was very vast enough that the residents only took a small space. Those whole mountain ranges and the forest around here all belonged to Thousand Deaths Valley. There were various training spots in those different areas.

...

After five minutes, Komin, Lienia, and Cromwer arrived as they, Athan, and Avelia sat down on couches in the hall.

"So? What's the matter, Athan?" Lienia asked as she leaned back, "wait..."

She looked at Avelia and smiled, "could it be that Avelia wants to join as well?"

"What is her Outrious power?" Cromwer and Komin asked at the same time.

Avelia grinned and pointed her palm forward as a mystical dark space cube manifested on her palm.

"This...," Komin, Lienia, and Cromwer narrowed their eyes as they observed carefully and gauged the potency of her Outrious power.

"Wait for a second, doesn't this power resemble that of Teronyx's power?" Komin asked with a stunned expression.

"Exactly!"

Suddenly, all voidlings came out of the void region.

Avelia looked at Teronyx and rolled her eyes, "so you are finally willing to meet me?"

Teronyx scratched the back of his head. Well, his body was made up of dark space and looked humanoid with silver sparks.

"Eh, what do you mean?" Athan asked with a startled expression, "you told me that all of you were sent to the origin AVOF realm, so didn't you meet this voidling there?"

Avelia told Athan the truth as Staercia allowed her to tell him everything when Athan found her. Naturally, Athan knew that now he had two ways to find others.

Either Staercia reveals their presence to him one by one, or he becomes as strong as her and sees past her isolation from others to easily find them.

The second option was very far from him right now, so he had no choice but to rely on the first option.

"Well, your deal voidlings didn't want to meet anyone other than their master first," Avelia snorted, "hypocrites. You already saw us when you infused your core power into us. So, why did you refuse to meet us?"

"Ehh, you are wrong," Teronyx, Calvacuz, and others shook their heads.

"We didn't meet you at that time; we only saw you and helped you while you all were in deep slumber," Teronyx said with a grin.

Avelia rolled her eyes, "fine."

"Teronyx, you must help in Avelia's training now since you are the source of Avelia's outrious power," Athan said.

"Roger, Master," Teronyx said with a laugh, "I will do it to the best of my ability."

"So Avelia indeed has the same outrious power as Teronyx," Lienia said as she smiled, "well, then there's no need to consider things; the second last spot will go to Avelia."

"Indeed," Komin and Cromwer both nodded with joyful smiles.

But suddenly, Cromwer said, "how about you two combine to re-create the terrifying techniques of Dark Lord Ajaxes?"

"Dark Lord Ajaxes? Who is that?" Avelia asked with a frown.

"That could be a good idea," Athan nodded as he looked at Avelia, "Apparently, this Dark Lord Ajaxes had the same Outrious power several ten thousand years ago. He became a peak Fear-level existence, and his trapping maze techniques were really notorious."

"Trapping maze...," Avelia muttered before her eyes shined and nodded, "I understand! This Terror Hellion of Full Buster power is all about dark force fields. If I can add several layers of forcefields and create a complicated pattern in maze structure...."

Avelia trailed off as she rubbed her head, "it's going to be very difficult to create such profound techniques."

"That is natural!" Komin said with a smile, "Dark Lord Ajaxes had put tons of effort into honing his craft. Nobody could escape alive once trapped inside his profound techniques. He was a pain in the ass existence to other Fear-level powerhouses, and he had records of killing other Fear-level beings as well."

"Master, leave this to Derbios and me," Calvakuz said as he flapped his nine mysterious wings, "we both can help lady Avelia and Teronyx create a profound technique like that."

"Oo..Oo...we will become your test subjects," Taezin said with a grin, "let's see if you can stop us from escaping."

"That would be a bad idea," Calvakuz glowed in denial, "we would easily be able to escape given our versatile powers and the passive power of Abyssal darkness within us."

"However, we can arrange one vs. one session after creating the technique, "Derbios said, "the reason why I could mutate all of your powers to create mutated offensive blasts through my dragon robots is due to the passive effect of Voidpulse in me."

"Wait...wait," Avelia stood up as she paused and grabbed Athan's hand, "we can all train later, but for now, I have some serious business with Athan.

Turning to Komin, Lienia, and Cromwer, Avelia said, "sign me up as I want to join with Athan. Also, you three and these voidlings can train or do anything. Just don't disturb Athan for a few days."

"I was thinking about adding our powers in Calvakuz's domain as well," Komin nodded with a smile, "let's practice together then."

...

As such, Athan and Avelia left while the voidlings, Komin, Lienia, and Cromwer, went to practice.
