The Tale of the Void Emperor

" Carve whatever I'm about to say in your thick skull. If you forgot about it by chance, you would find yourself drowning in the river of regret. "

The crowd saw the cold face of Athan on the giant screen with a hint of a carefree smile on his face.

The crowd became incensed seeing him like this.

Right now, The sections on the screen were no more as it returned to full display with only Athan and two envoys visible in it.

The envoys went along with Athan's wish as they were also curious about what Athan is going to say to the crowd.

But they were dumbfounded by his first sentence.

At this moment, Athan continued as he formed a grin on his face, " Are you all angry that I killed many of your relatives here? "

The crowd instantly became rowdy as they hurled curses at Athan. Actually, There was also a screen in front of Athan that envoys conjured so he could also see the crowd.

It turned out that this type of mystical screen was also possible thanks to a certain kind of runic ward.

Athan laughed out loud seeing the crowd's reaction before speaking, " Actually, I am not going to stop killing until there are only fifty people left for a certain reason. Hahaha, I'm sure many of you are eager to find my family and the organization I come from, right? "

The envoys looked at each other in shock, and Rukia, who was eating fruits, laughed out loud after hearing what Athan said.

" Hehehe, I knew it. So that's why he was killing people left and right. " Rukia stated with a giggle leaving her mouth.

Rezy frowned as she also figured it out, ' So He wanted to kill until only fifty people are left...Just so that all his teammates can pass the test regardless of their points. What a guy. '

In the end, A smile formed on her cold face because she was impressed by Athan's resolve to offend almost every powerful organization for his teammates. But that's all; She still felt that what Athan did was beyond reckless as all the close ones to him will be put into danger because of his action.

" I have two families, and both are in the Chaosverse. The organization behind me, more specifically, a special group within it, is my second family. The name of that organization is Youhan Tree, and it's situated in the Dosflame region of the Vaiklaid Continent...Now you might think that you can take your revenge...Hahaha, right? " Athan stated with a grin stretching on his face that turned into a burst of loud laughter at the end.

The Audience, Envoy, Rukia, Rezy, and every single person, became bewildered and dumbfounded. Why would he reveal such information himself?

Is he mad? Did he lose his shit and turn insane? What the actual fuck is going on?

Yone and Zank looked at each other with shock, ' What the hell is Athan doing? '

Ayurin was also speechless while other members of the hidden dragon troupe were sweating buckets.

What the hell is Athan thinking? This is like indirectly giving them a death sentence.

Everyone was silent except for the wicked laugher of Athan and...the slow emergence of black aura from his body.

By now, Everyone was familiar with this black power of Athan that was unstoppable. They saw Athan using this black power in various ways to commence massacres with his bank of techniques and wits.

The black aura gathered behind Athan while he laughed and turned into a void beast with white eyes and creepy white teeth that covered him like a damn blood-thirsty coat. It made people tremble involuntarily.

" Haha-ha-haha..,haha Well..." Athan stopped his laughter before a gleam of black and white flashed in his eyes. He shook his head while smiling, " Actually, You can't do anything to my family. You...shouldn't even be thinking about doing anything to them, even in your fucking dream! "

Athan's voice turned deep, and his eyes glowed very faintly. The void beast behind him and the black flamy aura around him created a terrifying scene to look at.

The beast's eyes also pulsed as if it was alive and growled lowly as if it was hungry and ready to devour everyone.

" If something happened to anyone that is close to me, then..." Athan grinned and cracked his finger as the void beast roared loudly that spread a black aura around him and covered the whole screen.

" ℍ?~~??????~~"

Athan's voice completely changed along with the screen as only a figure akin to a demon lord was visible in it with the terrifying beast's glare at them.

" ? ????ℝ ?? ?? ???ℕ ????....?ℍ?? ?? ?ℕ??ℍ?ℕ? ℍ?ℙℙ?ℕ?? ?? ?ℍ??, ????ℍ ???? ?? ?ℍ? ????? ?? ???ℝ ℂ?ℕℂ?ℝℕ!!

? ???? ?ℝ?ℕ? ? ??? ???ℕ ℍ??? ?ℙ?ℕ ??? ???! ??? ???? ???ℍ ??ℝ ????ℍ ???ℝ? ??ℂ?ℕ?, ??? ??? ??ℕ'? ??? ??! ??? ???? ?????ℝ ???ℝℕ???? ?ℕ ?ℍ? ???? ?ℍ?? ???? ??? ?ℕ? ℝ?ℂ???ℝ ??? ???ℝ? ???.

*Growl*

???? ?ℍ?ℕ ??? ?ℍ?ℕ? ?ℍ?? ??? ???? ??? ?ℕ? ??ℕ???? ?? ℝ??????? ?ℝ?? ?ℍ? ℍ?????ℍ ??ℝ??ℕ? ?ℍ?? ???? ??? ??????, ??? ???? ??ℕ? ???ℝ???? ℙ?ℝ??ℂ??? ??ℕ?, ℝ???? ??ℝ ?ℕ??ℍ?ℝ ℝ??ℕ? ?? ℙ??ℕ???~ℍ?????ℍ~??ℝ??ℕ?...??? ???? ?????ℝ ?ℍ?? ??? ??ℝ ???ℝℕ???. "

*ROARRRRRRRRR....*

At this time, The whole screen was covered in flaming darkness, and even Athan was not visible anymore as only the roar of the beast lingered in the air.

...

In the testing ground, Athan's face turned indifferent from his previous maddening shout that seemed to come from abyssal hell itself.

The envoys had their jaws dropped to the ground, and they didn't doubt a bit that Atan wouldn't hesitate to work on his words in the future.

" Close the screen. Let the crowd sink into the hell brought upon my words. "

The envoys snapped out of their thoughts before one of the envoys waved his hand and deactivated the screen.

Athan nodded towards them and continued moving in a certain direction, which he hadn't explored yet to work on his plan.

The envoys didn't say anything as they got all the answers and just watched Athan leave before they also left.

The crowd had a blank expression on their faces as Athan's terrifying voice and words echoed in their heads. One could see apparent fear in their eyes because they knew....they fucking knew that Athan had the power to do what he said!

They had seen his methods and actions in the last two months to know that he was absolutely a devil that didn't bat an eye to even his own injuries and suffering to meet his goal. It was damn certain that he would pass this test, go to Chaos Monolith Hills and become even more powerful. The way he was unstoppable was for all to see and...

They weren't so blind as to not see his terrifying potential!

Yone, Zank, and other people of Youhan Tree looked at each other with shock in their eyes.

Ayurin wryly shook her head to remove Athan's lingering image from her mind, ' Brilliant. '

...

" Brilliant, Hahaha! " Rukia laughed out loud after watching Athan's performance. The way his expression and demeanor changed when he finished speaking showed his equally terrifying mentality.

After all, She could see what those people outside couldn't see. She saw Athan changing his face instantly after he finished inbreeding his terror into those people.

' It looks like it will become very lively when he comes to Chaos Monolith Hills, hehehe...'

...

There was another person watching this, and he was having second thoughts about his plan to take action against Athan.

That person was none other than Denfroz.

At this moment, All people forgot about revenge. The deep, devilish voice of Athan and the fear they experienced were not fake. They saw with their own eyes that every single person was wiped out by Athan's dark powers with not even their ash remained. They also saw Athan seemingly regrowing the limbs of his teammates with a wave of his hands.

Death will be the least of their concern...Indeed. With his power, Death was really not the most terrifying part. He could let them devour slowly by abyssal darkness and regrow their existence with voidpulse just so they can experience the torment of getting devoured again.
