The Tale of the Void Emperor

After forming a soul bond with Skymare Tingale and making it his contracted chaos beast, Athan left it in the care of Efyeed and Primo.

After that, Athan swept his glance at others who were meditating before he stood up.

" Primo, inform me if something happens. " After saying this, Athan flew deeper into the cloudly land towards the hill palace of Dean Lenix.

" Okay, Master. "

Athan and Primo had a deep soul connection, so Primo could send his thoughts to Athan even if he was a considerable distance away. As for the range limit? He hasn't tested yet.

While flying, he took out the contact card of Dean, which Dean gave him when he met him previously and told him that he was coming to his Hill Palace.

" Alright.. I am waiting. "

...

After a while, Dean Lenix and Athan were sitting in front of each other as Dean Lenix told Athan about what he did at the Star-Breaker Hill faction's place.

" That's all. But obviously, Ruzald doesn't believe that Munvald died inside the special-grade CPD, and he will also find the truth pretty soon as there are many means to do that. "

After he finished speaking, Dean took a sip from his cup of tea before looking at Athan with a faint smile.

Athan yawned before he asked, " So what's the fastest way to end this matter? "

Hearing the question, Dean Lenix was dumbfounded, " Why are you asking me that? "

" Eh, Why not? I am just asking for an opinion. You know about everything more than me, so I want to know the fastest method to end this matter. " Athan grinned as he spoke.

" The fastest method...It would be to kill every Gardues here. But the root of the Gardues family lies in Upper Chaosverse. Let me tell you about them first. " Speaking up to here, Dean Lenix put the teacup down on the table.

" Munvald's existence was known to the main Gardues family at Upper Chaosverse because of his talent, and after breaking through to Evagon-stage, he was going to go to Upper-Chaosverse and join the main family as one of the many seeds to be cultivated. "

Athan raised his eyebrows and asked, " So do they know that Munvald died? " 

Dean Lenix shook his head, " Nope. At least, not yet. It's hard to contact anyone from Upper Chaosverse from here, but people from Upper-Chaosverse can easily contact someone here. That aside, they will know about Munvald's death soon because although it's hard, it's not impossible, and only the organizations have the means to contact the main branches at the Upper-Chaosverse. 

Ruzald must be rushing to Great Bridgade Palace, and he will likely reach there after a day once he leaves the Silver Fang. Silver Fang is one of the areas here where Bridge Portal can't open, but once he leaves Silver Fang after a day, He will reach Great Bridgade Palace, and the first thing he will do is to likely contact the main Gardues family at the Upper-Chaosverse and give them news about his son's death. "

Dean Lenix paused there before he smirked, " But don't worry. He won't be able to contact the main family. "

" Ohh? How? " Athan was surprised. Does he have authority at Great Bridgade Palace? Logically, He shouldn't have the authority to stop the vice-head of Great Bridgade Palace from doing anything he wants at Great Bridgade Palace.

Hearing the surprised expression of Athan, Dean Lenix just smiled and took out a contact card before saying, " Zangrel, The person you wanted to meet is in front of me. Also, I might as well tell you that he is just at Orderic Catastrophe. "

" What! You are pulling my leg, right? You are saying that a brat at Orderic Catastrophe killed Munvald? "

" That's what I am saying, and...he did that in front of my eyes. "

" Interesting. As bullshit as this sounds, since you are saying that you saw with your own eyes with such a serious voice, I need to believe it. Anyway, so why did you call me? "

Dean Lenix grinned and said, " You want to see....how he killed someone far powerful than him? "

" Hahaha, Of course, I want to see. Even though I believe what you said, I still have doubts because such a thing happening is outside of my knowledge and perception. "

" Alright. Then first, don't let that Ruzald contact the main Gardues family. Second, tell him that you found the killer and bring him to Volteir Belt. At that place, you will see a miracle. "

After saying that, Dean Lenix cut the contact and looked at Athan with a grin, " Are you ready? Know that we won't make a single move on Ruzald, and he will be left entirely up to you. Whether you can kill him or not depends on you. "

Tiana had told Athan that the head of Great Bridgade Palace goes by the name, Zangrel. So he was surprised to find that Dean Lenix and Head Zangrel had just close connections. 

" Hahaha, If I didn't meet Linci, then I wouldn't have accepted your rapid plan and would've thought of another plan. Anyway..." Athan laughed as he spoke with a cold grin, " Munvald was bound to die. To dare to have such thoughts about Avelia is unacceptable. "

" That also baffles me. How are you able to use that girl's power? " Dean Lenix asked with curiosity and baffled expression. This was the only reason he believed that Athan could kill Ruzald. When he saw Munvald getting frozen and then disappearing without a trace, He felt the Netherly frost that was several times more potent than he felt when testing after Linci arrived here.

' Even I would have died if I got hit by it. '

Hearing the quest, Athan grinned, " That's a secret. Anyway, what will Ruzald do when he sees me? His son's killer? will he directly kill me or imprison and torture me? "

Dean Lenix laughed out loud while shaking his head as he said, " Hahaha, I think he won't do anything. He will simply think that Zangrel is pulling his legs by bringing someone at Orderic Catastrophe and labeling him as his son's killer. "

After that, Dean Lenix and Athan planned their things. Dean Lenix told Athan that the head Gardues family at Upper-Chaosverse will know about it eventually, even though it might take some years.

Although the death of one seedling is not major for the head Gardues family and the branch family of Gardues here is not that important for the main family as it is just an off-shoot branch. 

But the ones who supported Munvald inside that family might bear a grudge towards Athan once they find about Munvald's death.

They talked about an hour more before Athan left.

After Athan left, Dean Lenix fell into thought, ' Athan...what a strange brat. It looks like Zangrel, and I will be able to advance and not stay blocked once Athan finally arrives at Upper-Chaosverse. '

Although Dean Lenix and Head Zagngrel were at the peak of powers in the Lower-Chaosverse, It was not the same case in Upper-Chaosverse. The thing was, They had almost reached their limits, and that's why they were thrown down here to manage the sub-branch of the organizations.

But Dean Lenix saw miracle and hope in Athan, and that's why he decided to support him from sideways.
