The Tale of the Void Emperor

" Alright. Be prepared. " Saying this, Athan's eyes changed as a streak of black and white flashed for a brief moment.

' Gaze of Void. '

Instantly, Theo jumped several meters back instinctively, but he didn't escape the terrifying beastly shadow appearing in his mind.

Sen and others were confused as to what just happened. They didn't see Athan doing anything, but Theo jumped back as if encountering a monster.

Inside his mind, He was in the form of a majestic dark blue tiger with white and light blue patterns, but the majestic aura was gone as he looked fearfully at the horrific beastly head that was ten times his size and was ready to devour him whole.

His whole body trembled as sweat appeared like a waterfall. But He didn't fall down. He was scared, but he didn't want to give up.

But this slight commotion attracted surrounding people, and some instantly recognized Theo.

" Hey, Isn't that genius from Bazilt clan, Theo? Their clan is one of the top power in the Gazitreem Continent. "

" Indeed. But his situation seems weird; There's a panicked and a scared look on his face. "

" Damn..He is sweating buckets. What's going on? Someone attacked him with a soul technique or what? "

Athan didn't want to make a scene here, so he just used his Gaze of Void for an instant and then deactivated it.

Theo suddenly regained his bearing after the monster disappeared from his head and heaved a huge sigh of relief while wiping the sweat from his face.

Looking at Athan standing a bit far away, He thought, ' Hell Yeah! My guess was right. This guy is a fucking monster. Hehehe, It looks like this test will be even more interesting than I thought. '

But this commotion attracted the attention of an Envoy as she arrived in front of Theo to inquire, " What happened, boy? Did someone attack you or what? It's strange because generally, Even soul attacks can't go undetected here. What happened? "

This envoy was none other than the blue wavy-haired big sister.

Theo scratched the back of his head as he just laughed, " Nobody attacked me. I was just practicing an unusual technique, and this happened. "

" Hmm...If that's the case, then it's fine. " She nodded and returned but didn't forget to take a glance at Athan and the group.

Afterward, Theo approached Athan and the group before asking with a grin, " So, Athan? Can I join the team now? "

" Well, Your response was not bad, and you didn't give up. Good. You're in. "

After that, They went to register their team name by approaching an envoy.

The envoy asked for the team name, and after that, The envoy did something to the cards as the front of their cards changed.

[ Void Dwellers ] Appeared in golden fonts on their card.

" Remember. You are not allowed to attack your teammates. If you do so, then you will be instantly disqualified. "

Athan, Shiromi, Sen, and others nodded before returning to their place.

There were still people registering, so they will have to wait for some more time before the test begins.

After a while, The crimson-haired cold beauty spoke in a loud voice that spread far and wide, " We will start the test thirty minutes later. So if you want to form teams, then do it fast. "

...

Thirty minutes passed in the blink of them as Athan and others talk about something.

" Alright. Now stand still as after exact three seconds, You will be teleported beyond the border. Gather points according to four methods and try and find new things as there are hidden ways to gather points. "

After speaking this, The crimson-haired cold beauty took out something from her storage ring. This thing looked like a small wooden totem with mystical wood of silver and green color attached to its sides.

This thing shined for a brief moment as the two square kilometer area was enveloped within a barrier.

Athan saw the barrier and felt space fluctuate before he felt a pull that he didn't resist and appeared at another location.

This place had thunder pools, Thunder trees, and the sky was also filled with thunder clouds.

Athan swept his glance in all directions and saw a building-like structure far away.

" It looks like my luck is good. " Athan grinned with his eyes gleaming excitedly that thirsted for battle.

Instantly activating the chaos matrix, He transformed his body into Chaotic-Body: Lightning Dust and flew towards that place which he guessed to be a so-called stronghold.

...

Outside, The people gathered saw the giant cloudy screen flash for a moment before it was sectioned into hundred parts that displayed hundred different participants. 

One of the sections also displayed Athan as he moved towards the stronghold.

...

On the other hand, Every envoy's demeanor changed as they took out tables, chairs, and food before talking with one another while observing all participants on a different cloud screen that formed in front of them after the test started.

" Brother, Azilias. Will we be able to see something interesting in this test? "

" Bah, Who knows? Honestly, I just want to be done with this test and return to my Hill. I told them that I didn't want to become an envoy, but I was forced to become one. I would rather train myself there instead of coming here. "

On the other hand, The cold beauty with crimson hair looked at the blue wavy-haired beauty and asked, " Say Rukia, What was that small commotion? "

Rukia grinned as she licked her lips, " I found something interesting, Rezy. Do you see that boy? The one with a pretty face and mysterious eyes. "

Rezy followed the hand of Rukia and soon found the person she was referring to, " What about him? "

" Giggles. He is interesting. I think he will show us some interesting things. "

Rezy didn't know what interesting thing would he show them, but she took note of Athan.

Though none of them knew that what they will see will be far from interesting...It will be a nightmare.
