The Tale of the Void Emperor

Melker was sitting in his palace with his eyes closed. He just got the news from Kronel about his sons' killer and was thinking about what to do.

He had considerable trust me Mr.Horeinsen, so he knew that a certain level of risk was involved in this matter.

"Judas!"

Melker spoke, and right after that, a man in his forties appeared with a simple white gown.

He arrived in front of Melker and bowed, "master Melker."

"Give me your opinion," Melker said in a plain voice.

Judas fell into thought for a few moments before he said respectfully, "master Melker, our little business in upper-Chaosverse is protected and supported by Kronel and his clan. So..., judging by his nature, he wants to test Athan using us. We also have to take some kind of action now that we know the identity of the killer."

"Mhmm," Melker nodded and fell into thought for a minute before he finally spoke, "hire dark daggers for assassination. They will do the work in Heaven's Tranquility."

Hearing that, Judas was stunned, "Inside Heaven's Tranquility?"

"Naturally," Melker spoke with cold eyes, "since Kronel wants me to test Athan, he will also allow assassination to happen in his place. I'll talk to him regarding that. Tell the dark daggers to come in as normal customers; I'll pay for all costs."

...

Two hours later, Athan and Sen were enjoying themselves in the Amberil Hot springs with geysers. This facility had ten layers of hot springs that also act as geysers.

There were many spots of hot springs geysers. Athan was sitting while leaning his back against the wall in one of the hot spring spots while Sen was sitting on his lap.

Sen's hands were busy massaging Athan's dragon while Athan's hands were massaging the soft and juicy melons of Sen.

Suddenly, countless bubbles appeared in the hot spring before it shot up like a geyser.

"hahaha, it's fun," Sen laughed as she and Athan both flew up on a hot spring geyser and passed through a membrane as they appeared in another hot spring with different relaxing effects on the body.

The scenery also changed as they appeared in a hot spring surrounded by small greenery and cute mortal animals like deer, bunnies, pandas, etc.

Sen and Athan enjoyed as they passed eight more layers while flying up on geyser and enjoyed different hot springs before finally having a passionate battle at the topmost layer of the hot spring.

Sen was tired after the intense battle as her body and soul were nourished by Athan's yang energy.

He used some voidpulse to create her clothes and carried her to the Dreamy Night Deep Blue.

When he arrived at his pavilion, he saw six people standing out of the border, 'What are they doing there?'

They were none other than Zangeer and his friends.

Zangeer turned around as he sensed someone flying towards them and saw Athan, "yo, Athan. Look at this pavilion, hahaha. It's interesting. I wonder what the person who did this would do if someone passed through the border?"

The other five people with Zangeer also turned around and saw Athan. All of them were surprised to see a woman in his arms.

"Who is that, Athan?" Zangeer asked with curiosity in his voice

Athan was a bit speechless, but he shook his head and passed by them before entering the pavilion.

Seeing that, the other six people were dumbfounded.

Athan put Sen in bed before he came out of the pavilion. He looked at Zangeer and said with a small smile, "I am the owner of this pavilion, and I created this border."

Hearing that, Zangeer and others were not much surprised since they guessed as much when Athan entered the pavilion.

Zangeer raised his eyebrows and asked, "So...what will you do if someone crosses the border?"

"Death," Athan spoke plainly in an indifferent voice.

Zakus, one of the Zangeer's friends, who looked to be in his late twenties, spoke with a snort, "fights are not allowed here unless you want to offend Heaven's Tranquility, and here you are, talking about killing," Zakus turned to Zangeer and said while shaking his head, "this friend of your is really talking big despite being a Zen order elite."

Suddenly, everyone looked on the left side and saw someone flying towards them. The presence they felt was a powerful one, very powerful.

"Peak evagon-realm?" Zangeer muttered as his eyes glowed slightly.

After a few seconds, they could clearly see the person.

"Mrs. Elk. What brings here?" Feigan, another friend of Zangeer, spoke with a smile.

Elk had her usual indifferent expression. She nodded towards Zangeer's group before turning to Athan, "Athan, we need to talk privately."

Hearing that, Zangeer and his friends were surprised.

Athan sensed some urgency in her voice, so he nodded and turned back as he entered inside the pavilion while Elk followed him inside.

Zangeer and the other five looked at each other.

"Should we go inside as well?" Feigan said, "since he is your friend, he wouldn't mind it, right?"

Sahara, the girl who knew about Athan, said with a snort, "idiot, Mrs. Elk said she wanted to talk privately with Athan. Anyway, what do we do now, Zangeer?"

Zangeer had a smile on his face as he felt that something interesting might happen, "let's wait for them to come out."

...

Inside the pavilion, Athan and Elk sat at a table.

"what do you want to talk about?" Athan asked as he took a sip from the teacup.

Elk glanced at the two young ladies on the bed before looking at Athan and said, "you will be attacked in a day or two."

Hearing that, Athan was surprised before he smiled faintly and asked, "why do you know that, and for what reason do you want to inform me of this?"

Elk's indifferent expression broke down into a small smile as she said, "just extending some goodwill.. The one who is going to attack you is Melker, whose sons you killed the previous time you came here."
