The Tale of the Void Emperor

" Now, let's check your order base and then measure your SBP. " Mitra spoke as she went to another table in the room and told Athan to use his order force and chaos force on the square white slate lying on the table.

Athan did as told as he didn't even ask what means SBP and waited for her to explain it.

The white slate shined a bit after he used his order force and chaos force into the white slate.

Mitra looked at the white slate and was shocked. Looking at Athan, she spoke, " Your order edi- "

" It's not formed yet. " Athan interrupted her and spoke. His Order Eidos was not created after his first catastrophe.

Mitra thoughtfully nodded as she spoke, " Makes sense. You broke through too fast, In just seven and a half years. Anyway, there are cases where if people break through to orderic catastrophe fast, They will have to pass more catastrophe, and they won't have their Order Eidos developed directly. "

After that, She moved towards the most strange thing in the room. It was a mystical container with golden clouds swirling inside. The container seems to be made from transparent crystal material.

There was a table beside this container and on it was a plain black round token. 

As she picked up the token, She asked, " By the way, I have never heard of someone breaking through to Orderic Catastrophe in seven odd years. So, would you mind telling me the state of your orderic codex after you broke through? Normally, Those who breakthrough have rough outlines of their Order Eidos. "

" A bean. There was only a tiny bean in my orderic codex. " Athan answered with a deadpan expression.

" Pff....hahaha, Serves you right for progressing too fast. I guess it will take longer for you to progress in orderic catastrophe than other people. " Mitra laughed at the misfortune of Athan before giving the black token to him.

Athan took the token from her with a speechless face.

" Now, we will check your SBP. Go into that crystal container. " Mitra spoke as she pointed at the container with golden sparky clouds swirling inside it. 

" There's no door. How do I go in? "

Mitra grinned and spoke, " Don't worry. You will phase through the crystal. " 

Athan looked at the container before moving towards it, and indeed, He directly passed through the crystal. The feeling he got as he passed through this strange crystal was that of sticky rubber.

' Strange crystal material. ' Thought Athan before he turned around and looked at Mitra with the expression that said [ What now? ]

Mitra smiled and spoke, " Now infuse your soul energy into the black token to create your SBP token. Oh...By the way, SBP means Superficial Battle Power. Your battle power will be displayed in the token after it is measured. It will be used as a reference when you accept tasks and missions. Just like contact cards, That black token and those golden sparky clouds are also a product of Boundless Pavilion. You will see their mystical uses soon. "

Athan looked at the plain black token and the clouds swirling around him with slight curiosity, ' Gauging superficial battle power, huh..'

He infused soul energy into the black token, and instantly, the token revealed golden patterns from its black surface.

The golden sparky clouds around him suddenly tried to enter inside him. But due to his void outfit, They couldn't go in. 

" Stop blocking them from entering. Let them do their work. " Mitra spoke with a weird face that showed slight confusion, ' He shouldn't be able to block that energy from entering him though....strange. '

Athan was going to do it, but this Mitra just can't shut up for a second. He deactivated the power of his outfit that blocks all external things from entering inside him, and the golden sparky clouds readily disappeared into his body.

Seeing that, Mitra walked near the container and spoke, " The golden cloud sparky energy should be roaming inside your body. Let it roam for a while to measure your physical body strength. "

Athan nodded as he didn't do anything and just waited. After a while, the golden sparky energy released from his body and entered inside the token.

At this moment, Something appeared on the token.

A border with sword patterns appeared on the token with golden numbers inside it.

' 520? ' 

" Hey, Athan. Could you show me your token? "

Athan showed her the token, and Mitra looked at it with narrowed eyes and nodded, " Good. Now come out. We still need to continue to measure your superficial battler power since this just displays your body strength. "

After Athan came out from the strange crystal container, Mitra spoke as she moved towards a door in the room, " Now we will go into a pocket space dimension. Follow me. "

Mitra opened the door inside the room, but instead of appearing in another room, They appeared in a vast grassy plain. A clear sky, fresh air, small hills, and ponds. There were no large trees or big mountains in this land covered with small grass.

But both Mitra and Athan's attention was attracted towards their left, where a man who looked to be in his twenties just used a powerful order technique in the sky.

A roaring flaming tiger with four wings materialized in the sky before releasing a red and blue blast from its mouth. The whole tiger was red and blue with two meters long and three meters tall in size.

After releasing the blast from its mouth, The tiger roared and started to inflate like a balloon before blasting with a boom.

*BOOOOOM....*

" What are you doing here, Yenly? " Mitra shouted while looking in the direction of the two men standing two hundred meters away from them.

The man who wore similar clothes to Mitra looked at Mitra before speaking with a wry smile, " I am here to guide this new kid. Hill master Xander picked him up from somewhere and told me to complete his newbie guide. Anyway, What's up with you? The new batch of recruits should have arrived today, so what are you doing here instead of setting up the guide outside? "

He was far away, but his voice traveled to Mitra and Athan as if guided by the wind.
