The Tale of the Void Emperor

Athan's eyes were closed as he leaned back on the chair with a smile on his face. He felt a bit of heaviness in his mind, but he remembered his time with Avelia, Tiana, and others in this drunken state. 

' I'll get you back. '

Athan stretched his hands in the front as if grabbing something with his eyes still closed.

Naturally, Other people were talking about him due to his actions.

" It looks like that dude let himself get drunk. "

" I wonder what expression he is making? I can't see anything due to that mask. "

" I think he wants something since he just made a grabbing motion with his hands. "

...

Suddenly, Athan felt some kind of signal from the crystal card. He snapped out of his stupor and cleared all effects of wine from him.

Looking at the crystal card, He stood up and moved towards one of the gothic-looking doors in this lobby.

Athan's black card had red light pulsing with a red sheen in the center, indicating his turn has come up. He then entered the door from which a person just came out and was surprised to see the scenery.

He appeared in the strange sky filled with black and white clouds below him and...he started to fall down.

But he used the cloud of chaos as a white cloud materialized below his feet that stopped his fall and rode on the cloud while looking around.

" Hello, Newbie. "

Athan looked below him and saw a black cloud genie flying up towards him before floating in front of him with a smile.

" We can start the event when you are ready. The rules are simple. You just have to kill as many monsters as you can while surviving for one hour. You are not allowed to use chaos stones to refill your energy. 

But I guess it won't come to that point unless you are versatile and strong both. kakaka, Just like those top hundred on the newbie leaderboard. Anyway, even If you use chaos stones, the Force Detection Runic Ward will know right away, and you will be banned for a month from participating in this event. "

Athan looked at the black cloud genie with a smile and spoke, " I want to test something. "

The Cloud genie raised his cloudy eyebrows and asked, " Test what? "

" The function of this Force Detection Runic Ward. How will it check If I used chaos stones directly from my inner body space? "

Hearing that, The cloud genie was visibly surprised, " You have inner space in your body? But how could someone of your level comprehend the order of chaotic space of Chaosverse? Your Chaos region shouldn't be able to store anything inside it at your current level. "

Athan smiled indifferently and spoke, " I was born with a unique body physique with inner body space. "

" Oh...Well then, lad, You still don't have to worry about the Force Detection Runic ward. Khakhaka, If you used the technique using the energy from chaos stones, It would detect it. " The black cloud genie laughed as he spoke.

But Athan appeared a bit doubtful, " But we first pass the energy from chaos stones into Chaos Curtain to turn it into Chaos force and order force. It becomes the same as the chaos force and order force we produce. "

" Khakhaka...There is a deep imprint of Chaosverse in the chaos force and order force you get from the chaos stones, and Force Detection runic ward can detect it. I guess you don't know much about runic wards yet. Well, Let's focus on the event first. You will find about runic wards later anyway. "

" Oh...Alright. " Athan was surprised and nodded since that made sense. He then told the genie to start the event.

" Good luck, lad. Let's see how much you score in an hour. Just kill however many monsters you can kill in an hour while surviving. If you want to give up, then speak about it and I will disperse the monsters. " The black genie spoke with a grin as he dived back down the blanket of black and white clouds.

*Roarr....*

*Screeeeeeeeechh.....*

*Grrrrrrrrrr....*

Suddenly, Athan saw multiple monsters...more like monsters transformed from the clouds coming out from the neverending blanket of black and white clouds below him.

' Those clouds literally transformed into monsters. ' Athan thought as he snapped his finger while looking at the monsters.

' Point Zero Bombardment-Twenty points. '

There were twenty monsters, and he predicted their movement towards him and assigned twenty points of Point Zero bombardment on their path before they could reach him.

He wanted to check how much damage that needs to take to destroy one monster. That's why he only used the power of a single point on each of them.

*Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....*....

*Screeeeeeeeechh.....*

*Grrrrrrrrrr....*

*Rawrrrrrrrr...*

*heeeeeeeeeeeee.....*

All monsters survived the single point-zero blast. Athan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the damage taken by them and snapped his finger once again while finally riding his cloud since the monsters would soon catch up to him.

This time, He assigned two points of point zero bombardments on their path after roughly predicting their movements.

*Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....**Boooom....*....

Athan saw the result and stopped moving as he just stood on his cloud of chaos, ' So it takes three point-zero blasts to kill one. '

After the twenty monsters were killed, Forty monsters came out from the black and white clouds to attack Athan.

' Hmmm...I can't afford to waste time. I have to kill fast to kill more in one hour. ' Thought Athan as he crossed his arms while standing on his cloud of chaos.

This time, Some wolf-type monsters with two heads opened their mouths and released a chaotic attack of blue and yellow towards him.

Athan was thinking of the best way to destroy more monsters and grinned after a moment as he decided on his plan. 

He first rode his cloud of chaos downwards as he moved near the blanket of the black and white clouds while dodging the simple attack of the wolf-type monsters.

' Arachnid's Demon Web. ' 

He then used a 5-star body order technique he learned during his 1.5 years of training order techniques. 

Spider webs shot out at a fast speed towards the monsters from his eight fingers and two thumbs.

Naturally, he consumed his abyssal darkness to coat these webs in a black aura by going all out.

He constructed a giant web structure around him using Arachnid's Demon Web order technique.

The forty monsters were instantly killed after they got pierced through by the webs coated with abyssal darkness.

And...by staying near the spawning place of the monsters, He started an instant slaughter-fest.
