The Tale of the Void Emperor

Athan and others walked the starry stairs as they reached the giant palace gates.

Upon closer look, one can see that the three palaces were connected, but it looked like three palaces since it had three magnificent constructs from afar.

After Athan and others entered, the heavenly fragrance and the peaceful vibes inside the palace instantly lifted their spirits.

Lady Fu led them towards the exquisite counters, and to their left side, the four people also moved towards there.

The woman still had a bad mood due to Athan's remark.

"Ignore them, Ranisha. We are here to enjoy, so do just that," Another young lady in the group said before she started talking to the staff.

On the other hand, when Athan and others approached the staff, they were asked which package they would like to buy and explained the benefits of each package. There were a total of four packs.

The cheapest package cost 25,000 high-grade chaos stones, and it consisted of one month of enjoyment at the places listed in the package.

While the costliest package cost whooping 100,000 high-grade chaos stones per head. 

"Athan, if you want to get the most out of this trip, then choose the 2nd pack. You are all still in Orderic Catastrophe, and the 2nd pack is for zen order elite and masters. But still, it will provide you with the most benefits. The fourth pack is the best one, but only Evagon-stage people can get the most benefit out of it." Lady Fu advised.

Athan nodded as he understood and smiled, "Alright."

After saying that, he turned to the staff and paid 450,000 high-grade chaos stones.

After paying, Athan and others each got a membership card for the 2nd package, which they will be using to enjoy the facilities here.

Lady Fu already told them that she didn't need to pay anything because she was already a member here since she had provided one of the facilities in this place a long time ago and became a permanent member of this place.

A long time ago, She had found a Turban Nectar Pool, and the owner of this place decided to give her permanent members in exchange for putting the Turban Nectar Pool as one of the facilities here.

After they got membership cards, A beautiful lady arrived there as she wore a simple but exquisite loose robe. She had furry ears and a furry tail. Although her robe was loose, it covered everything, even her twin peaks.

Her name is Nacy, and she will be the guide of Athan and the group for this month. 

Athan looked at the list in his hand that had the name of all places and facilities of this place and decided to go to Garden of Peaceful Heaven first.

"I wonder if we can even enjoy everything in a month? Are we going to spend a few days at each place?" Sen asked with doubt.

Nacy chuckled and said, "Of course not. Each of these places is in mystical dimensions, and the time there is different from outside. The ratio is adjusted to 10:1 so ten days inside any of those facilities is equal to one day outside."

"In short, you will stay and enjoy here for at least three hundred days," Lady Fu said with a smile.

...

Athan and others followed the Nacy as they walked in this large path corridor with decorative statues on each side.

They also saw quite a few groups on the way.

After walking for five minutes, They entered one of the rooms, which had a portal inside.

After going through the portal and arriving at the other side, Athan and others were completely blown away.

A truly....heavenly place. 

Imagine the most beautiful place with fresh, mystical, and peaceful aura exuding greenery, the lawn ground with paths, beautiful open-air pavilion with a pond on each of their side and in the pond were mystical and colorful fishes swimming happily.

The path had many beautiful flowers in exquisite patterns that acted as borders of those paths.

There was one mile of distance between each pavilion and a three-way small hill range that covered the three sides of each pavilion.

All pavilions were covered in hazy bubble barriers that gave off a rainbow sheen.

The pavilion had couches, fluffy beds, chairs, fruits, drinks, foods, everything ready and covered in a transparent bubble that preserved their freshness.

"I...feel like sleeping," Theo muttered as he felt all of his fatigue slowly going away.

Nacy smiled and said, "The unique atmosphere of this place will slowly remove your fatigue and empower your soul until it can't anymore. You are all still in the Orderic Catastrophe stage, so you will get a considerable boost after staying here for a few days."

Afterward, Nacy led Athan and others to an unoccupied pavilion and took out a wand of sort as she pointed at the hazy bubble that covered the pavilion and the pond.

Once she did that, the bubble flickered slightly. Seeing that, Nacy smiled and said, "Let's enter inside." 

Once Athan and others entered through the bubble, they got another shock.

It was a damn new world inside the bubble.

The pavilion became bigger along with the pond, and all they saw around them was exquisite forest, another pond in front of them, beautiful birds, and cute, furry beasts.

Garden of Peaceful Heaven! This name was indeed apt for this place.

Nacy pointed at the pavilion and said, "There are two hot springs behind the pavilion in which you can take a bath. Its water also has mystical properties that can relax your body and mind.

"The fishes inside the pond are special as they will spread purifying energy inside your body, repair all hidden injuries, and revitalize your cells. This process will make you extremely comfortable and relaxed."

"You all must be exhausted by staying in purgatory for three years, so let's go there first," Tiana said as she looked at Sen and others with her usual gentle smile.

Lady Fu and Nacy went inside the pavilion and sat down on the comfortable couches while Athan and others moved to the hot springs.

There was a moss wall between the two hot springs, and a hazy bubble covered them, making it impossible for outsiders to see the people inside hot springs.

Athan and the boys entered inside one of the two hot springs, naked.

At the second hot spring, the girls took off their clothes with a wave of their hands and entered inside the spring, fully naked.

"Aaaaaaahh...."

Hearing the moan, Tiana and others looked at Tealery speechlessly.

Tealery smiled as her cheeks turned pink, "Ahem...It just felt so comfortable that I couldn't help it."

Avelia mischievously smiled as she moved behind Linci and grabbed her twin peaks, "Hehe, I didn't know you had such beautiful melons behind your usual black-verdant dress."

"Aaaaa..."Linci's face turned red in embarrassment and trembled as she was not touched like this since her birth. This strange feeling erected her pink cherries as well since Avelia kept fondling her breasts.

"Soft and mellow, they feel good. Hehehe."

The girls chuckled, and Linci made up her mind as she turned around and started doing the same to Avelia, causing her to squeak.

...

Outside this pavilion area...

Two young men had mischievous expressions on their faces as they arrived at the Garden of Peaceful Heaven.

"Bro, since we are here, then it's time for our usual raid."

"Alright. Let's hope there are some beautiful girls. Otherwise, it would be boring."

"Yeah, last time we encountered a bunch of men and were still kicked out by brother Lenek."

"Let's go there. It's near and occupied as well."

The two young men started walking and stopped in front of a pavilion. After stopping in front of the bubble, they looked at each other and smiled as they took out an artifact that looked like a feather.

They used this feather-like artifact and became invisible—their aura, appearance, everything disappeared.

"Hehe, let's go."

...

At someplace in one of the facilities of Heaven's Tranquility.

A handsome and slim middle-aged man with dark silver hair was sitting on a round table with three other people.

They were playing some kind of card game as the dealer gave out the glowing cards with different colors of patterns.

Suddenly, a servant arrived and said to the dark silver hair middle-aged man, "Sir Lenek, your two brothers have once again entered Garden of Peaceful Heaven and..."

The dark silver hair man frowned as he spoke casually, "Just keep an eye on them, nothing else. Once they are done playing, I'll kick them out. With that artifact, nobody can discover them anyway."

The servant hesitated before saying, "B-but there are some ladies in that pavilion as well, and...those brothers will not hold back..."

"Hey, Lenek. Although I know that nobody dares to offend you but still, your brothers are courting deaths by doing this."

A middle-aged man on the same table said as he looked at Lenek with a wry smile.

Lenek grinned and said, "It's fine. They have Lord father's protective necklace and it can even block two attacks of the peak-Evagon stage. And...people at the peak-Evagon stage are less than fifteen in the whole Midgard continent."

The servant wiped the sweat as he left while the middle-aged man across the table shook his head as he didn't approve of that hobby of Lenek's two brothers.

"Anyway, let's start the game."

"I am telling you first that If I win, then I'll marry your daughter."

"Fuck off!..."

"Hahaha, I'm just joking.. Anyway, I bet fifty-seven kortas."
