The Tale of the Void Emperor

Athan walked outside and saw that many people had gathered. There were a lot of people and among them were Rukia, Rezy and others who came to invite him that day. There were also enforcers, dean Lenix, and other Hill masters.

As Athan came out, everyone looked at him, and it was as if they were waiting for him to come out. 

Well, That was the case, actually.

Rukia looked at Athan with a complicated expression and sighed. She wanted to invite Athan, but she felt that there would be no hope about that after today.

Rezy was still the same with her indifferent expression as she crossed her arms and stood beside Rukia.

Venzar was at the center as he stood in the pathline of the Wonder Hill Pavilion's gates, so the first person that Athan saw was him.

Seeing Athan, Venzar took out a cube and threw it in the sky as a large square barrier was created. It was as big as two football fields put together side by side.

There were two rectangle gaps on his barrier, one at Athan's direction and another at Venzar's direction.

" Time to die, arrogant kid. I hope you enjoyed the last year of your life. " Venzar spoke with a sneer. He pointed at the barrier before continuing with a grin, " That is your grave. "

Athan faintly smiled as he flew up before Venzar and entered the barrier, " Hurry up. I don't have much time to waste on you. "

Hearing Athan's words, Every single person became dumbfounded.

What the hell did he say? Was he in so much hurry for his death?

Venzar was stunned before he laughed out loud, " Hahaha. Have you finally lost it? Well, it's no surprise. You must have been feeling very terrible for the past year because of this fated battle where you also knew that you would die. "

Venzar shook his head before continuing, " Knowing your death but not being able to avoid it must have constantly put you in despair such that you finally lost your mind and turned mental. "

" Are you done? If so, then come and die. " Athan spoke boringly before sweeping his glace down at other people who were standing on the cloudly land, " You all, I don't know how powerful my attack will be, so I suggest that you all stay a bit more back.

' Since I have Netherly Frost, then I might as well go for a big bang. ' Thought Athan as he grinned in excitement.

" Primo, I'll give you some void pulse, so defend my soul with it. " Said Athan before thinking, ' As for my body...I don't know how much of it will be left after that. But as long as I have my soul, I can create my body with voidpulse. '

Primo was startled and asked, " Master, What are you going to do? " 

Athan grinned internally and said, " I am going to show everyone a hell and tell them that this hell will appear every time that they try to fight with me. "

Hearing Athan's words, Dean Lenix faintly smiled, " Athan...You don't have to worry about us. That barrier can block attacks of even zen order grandmasters. "

Hearing that, Athan lazily responded, " Fine. But don't blame me later that I didn't warn you. "

" Shut up! Stop with your foolish and absurd words, Athan. " Venzar spoke with slight anger before he speaking again in a high voice, " Everyone, his mind is broken already. Let me just put him to rest. " He then finally flew up and entered inside the barrier.

After both of them entered, the barrier closed its gaps.

Other people also flew up to observe the battle. But they all thought that the battle will be over in a second or two.

' 70% or 80%? Never mind, 70% is fine. I feel like it will also be overkill. ' Thought Athan as he consumed 70% of his void pulse and created an orb with it.

' Primo, add all Netherly Frost inside that orb. Also, take this 30% of voidpulse and protect my soul with it. You can turn it into any defense power you want since you are a true voidling. ' Athan instructed Primo on what to do.

After that, Athan started to prepare for the attack inside while he grinned at Venzar outside and asked, " I felt that you were pretty scared the last time. I wonder where that fear go now? "

Venzar's face turned dark as that moment was the most embarrassing moment of his life. He actually hesitated to take on Athan's challenge at that time after seeing Athan's ruthlessness.

But That was just because of that situation. There was simply no way that he would lose against someone in Orderic Catastrophe Stage.

" Dean Lenix, who do you think will win? " At this time, Old men Frenz appeared at Lenix's side and asked.

Others also heard this question, and they shook their head in absurdness of it.

Dean Lenix wryly smiled and answered, " Naturally, Venzar will win. But...I just have this nagging feeling when I look at that brat's expression. " Dean Lenix shook his head and didn't continue.

" Me too..." Old man Frenz nodded in agreement as he looked at Athan.

In the sky, Venzar calmed himself and spoke with indifference, " I am already bullying you by having this match. You might as well attack first since it will be your last fight. But..."

Pausing there, His eyes turned cold as he remembered the torture of Athan towards his people and his nephew, " But don't expect an easy death. Just like how you tortured those people, You will also feel hellish pain before dying. "

" Pff....Hahaha....wait...Ha hah hahaha...Pain? Hahahahah" Athan started laughing as even tears came out of his eyes.

Everyone was dumbfounded and turned silent as they heard this loud laughter of Athan.

Shiromi, Sen, and others were also watching from a far, and they also shook their heads with a smile. They had blind confidence in Athan and felt that he would beat Venzar. They had seen him create miracles, and this time, they felt that Athan would win too. Especially, Arcued, He had absolute confidence in Athan. Only Theo looked confused as he didn't know as much about Athan.

Linci was also looking at Athan but not with a worried expression. She actually had the most confidence in Athan and felt that he would win easily. After all, even her Netherly Frost didn't affect him, so a mere zen order grandmaster was a piece of cake.

Well, Actually, even Athan would have trouble killing a Zen order Master if everything didn't go according to his plan. But Judging by how Venzar wanted to take his face back, and gave Athan a chance of the first strike. Athan had no more things to worry about.

Athan stopped laughing as he wiped away the tears and looked at Venzar, and instantly, His eyes turned sharp and summoned his Cloud of Chaos before dashing towards Venzar.

' M-m-master...What madness did you create? Your body won't survive this!!! ' Primo flew out with a worried expression.

' It's fine. Just save my soul. After the blast, 50% of my voidpulse will be recovered instantly, and I only need 40% to create my body. '

After all, All of his powers were situated in the void region, and the Void region was a mystical space connected to his soul. As long as his soul survived, He could recreate his body with voidpulse since he knew about his own body the best.

In the first place, This body was created from his soul. The clay he got from that Shirome guy, he was supposed to create a body using the unorthodox method to house his soul. But Athan went a step ahead and let his soul eat the clay. He didn't know why he did that, but he felt that it was right. And he was indeed right. His body was created because of his abyssal void of " fabrication " power of his soul using clay as a medium.

On the other hand, Venzar expression became a shocked one because Athan's flying speed on the cloud of chaos was even a bit faster than his speed on a cloud of chaos.

He never expected this speed from Athan as he hurridly put up all kinds of defense around him while also grinning internally and releasing a soul attack towards Athan, ' Humph, do you think I will really let you hit me first? '

Athan had already expected that something like this might happen, and that's why he gave 30% of his voidpulse to Primo to create a defense around his soul.

A powerful soul attack hit Athan with various strange alignments to affect and weaken his soul along with damage, but due to the defense around his soul, the soul attack was nullified.

Naturally, due to Athan's speed, Venzar was not given another chance because when Athan reached 3 meters across Venzar, He grinned and took out a fist-sized colorful orb with violent energy pulsing inside it.

Orb of Oblivion V2.

Athan threw the orb towards Venzor before controlling his cloud of chaos to descend at full speed while activated all of his body chaos traits to increase his defense and even using defensive techniques.

That orb of oblivion contained chaotic energy of his Lightning dust and Force of glittering river...with the amount of 1300 mid-grade chaos stone. 

He consumed those mid-grade chaos stones and stuffed that much energy inside the orb he created using voidpulse. That was actually enough to kill unprepared Venzar, who didn't defend himself properly.

But on top of that, He added all of his abyssal darkness in and also...all of the Netherly Frost he gathered from Linci, which created this overpowered, hellish orb of oblivion.

After 1 second of Athan throwing the orb, It exploded....

A brief moment of silence as the space was truly raptured for a half-second before healing quickly.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM...*

*PLOP...BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM....*

The barrier was broken as the destructive, chaotic wave of energy spread out with the orb as the center.

Dean Lenix, Old man Frenz, and other Hill masters who were present had their faces turned into absolute shock as they hurridly put up their defense.

Dean Lenix's face turned dark as he disappeared and teleported to the other side before instantly creating a barrier there as well.

" T-that's....What is this power? It's consuming my barrier's energy at a rapid rate...That power..." Dean Lenix sensed something familiar and looked at Linci.

But he had no time as he shouted, " Layer more barriers. Don't let that destructive energy pass through the barrier. Also, You idiots. GET AWAY FROM THE BARRIER. "

" Just how the hell did he do this? " Dean Lenix mumbled as he looked at the destructive mixed energies contained inside the many barriers created by him and Hill masters.
