The Tale of the Void Emperor

For one whole day, Athan constantly absorbed Netherly frost from Linci.

' I told her that I would help her, but now she is making things easier for me. Guess I should also think about something to make it easier for her. ' Athan grinned as he looked at Linci, who was meditating.

' Hmmm....Primo. '

" Yes, Master. "

" Can you make that same orb capable of absorbing Netherly frost that is inside my void region again? But make it such that it can stay outside? Here, take all of my Voidpulse and try to make something like that. This way, even if I am not around, Linci can interact with others normally. "

When Athan went to Dean Lenix's place, he told Primo to stay here for some reason, and one of them was so that Primo could absorb Netherly Frost because Tiana was sitting within two meters of Linci. But Primo wouldn't leave Athan for long periods of time since the only reason Primo arrived here was to stay with Athan.

Primo nodded as he took all voidpulse and said, " Alright, Master. I will try to make something like that. But I likely won't succeed in one try, so I might need more voidpulse. "

" It's fine. Let me know when you need more. But I am going out after ten or so minutes. Meanwhile,  you will have to stay here. Don't worry; I will return soon. "

" Master! Th-this...I can't. I want to come with you. " Primo spoke with a pitiful expression.

Athan smiled and patted Primo's head before saying, " Nope. I will do this myself. You don't need to come with me. I know your purpose, but...I told you that I wouldn't let such a situation arise. Now obediently, stay here and wait for my return. "

Primo's ears went down but still nodded, " Alright, Master. " 

' I believe in my Master, and I won't doubt him. That's my faith in him. ' Primo thought.

" But Master, if you don't come back in a few hours, I will come to you. I am here to stay with you, after all. " Primo spoke with pitiful expression and sparkling eyes filled with tears.

" Hahaha, sure. But if you plan to do that, then wake Tiana first and let her move outside from Linci's range. " Athan laughed before saying.

After that, he waited for Dean's call as it's already been a day since he was absorbing Linci's Netherly frost, and he should be calling him anytime now.

Five minutes, Athan sensed the contact card of Dean Lenix vibrating and giving him a single as he picked it up.

" Athan, it's time. "

" Got it. "

Athen turned to Efyeed, who had surrounded Skymare Tingale with its mystical energy, and said, " Do you want anything? Like any kind of material or things for the advancement of Limbus? "

Limbus is the name that Athan decided for Skymare Tingale.

" No, Master. My power allows me to access various kinds of chaotic energies, so for now, I can strengthen Limbus to a 6-star chaos beast easily. After soul boding with you, Its ability to integrate chaotic powers has increased dramatically. I think with my aid; It will become a 6-star chaos beast after a year or two. But it will take a longer time to advance without external aid after that. " Efyeed said to Athan.

Athan nodded with a smile, " Alright. What about you, Primo? "

" Nyaa, I am exposing Limbus to a minuscule of my aura to trigger some changes after its soul bond with you, but it will take some time to take effect. This is only possible because of its soul bond with Master, heh. Lucky fellow. " Primo flew around Limbus, who was covered in a colorful membrane of energies of Efyeed and said.

...

After talking with Efyeed and Primo, Athan left as he flew towards Dean Lenix's Hill palace.

There, Dean Lenix had opened a portal and was waiting.

After Athan arrived there, They entered through the portal and arrived at a floating piece of land.

Athan looked the surrounded and saw that there were many floating pieces of land. The sky was raging with chaotic winds, and Athan had to hurridly cover himself in abyssal darkness through the void robe to protect his body from this atmosphere.

" Dean, can you conjure a barrier around me to protect me? " 

Dean looked confused, " But you are fine with that black energy of yours. "

Athan faintly smiled and said, " Yeah, but I want to finish this fast without wasting time. So, just do that. " After saying that, He removed the coating of abyssal darkness from his body of his void robe as the atmosphere started to shred and corrode his body.

Dean Lenix was speechless as he hurriedly conjured a barrier around Athan to protect him.

" Thanks. " Athan nodded with a grin before asking, " So, when will they arrive? "

" Ten minutes. "

Athan nodded before his expression turned cold, " After finishing him, let's go to the Gardues family. I will follow your rapid plan and wipe out every Gardues there. "

...

At Great Bridgade Palace...

" I found your son's killer. "

" What did you say, Head Zangrel?! " Ruzald asked with bloodshot eyes.

Head Zangrel smiled wryly and said, " I said that I found your son's killer. You also know that Lenix is my best friend and I told him to investigate. In the end, He found the killer and captured him. It seems that your son had made enemies with an Evagon powerhouse by killing his son several years ago. He was planning this for a long time and acted when those groups of people went to special-grade CPD. He also had two other Evagon powerhouses from Dark Daggers that he hired for this plan. "

Head Zangrel paused there and sighed with sadness before continuing, " The other kids are still held captive by them, and that's why Coddys had to lie to you. If he didn't do as they said, then he would be killed by them as well. "

Ruzald's body trembles as he looks gratefully at Head Zangrel, " Thanks a lot, Head Zangrel. Let's go, let's go. Bring me that bastard. I will rip him apart myself. "

Rulzad spoke with bloodshot eyes and anger in his voice.

Head Zangrel raised his eyebrows and asked, " Don't you want to contact Head family in Upper Chaosverse first? "

Ruzald waved his hand before speaking coldly, " That can wait. I want to kill that bastard first and take revenge for my son. "

Head Zangrel internally smirked after hearing that. But outside, he appeared sad and said with a sigh, " Alright, let's go. "
