The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 112: Duel, Teacher-Student.

After Athan left, Senior Rishen muttered while looking in the direction where Athan left, " Old man Zenford, I hope you act like a proper senior and ancestor. Otherwise.... "

...

Athan soon reached the place where they first landed. The other 49 students were also there.

Seeing Athan arriving, Avelia dashed towards him with a smile, " Athan, How was your progression? You must have become really powerful after spending a month in this legendary sector. "

Athan nodded with a grin and said, " Indeed, I became much more powerful than before. "

A man who seemed to be in his twenties stepped forward towards Athan.

Seeing him, Avelia frowned because this guy was actually shameless enough to ask for her hand in marriage after getting beaten up by her.

She glared at him, but he only looked at Athan before turning to the middle-aged man, " Sir, can we have a duel here? I promise it won't take long. "

The middle-aged man looked at Athan and then at Ruthren before nodding with an impassive face, " You may proceed. "

Hearing this, Ruthren looked at Athan and curled his lips before saying, " I, Ruthren Witberz challenge you to a duel. Do you dare to accept? "

Athan smiled as he also wanted to check his new powers, and so he accepted the duel, " Sure, But I have one condition. "

Hearing about this, Ruthren frowned and asked, " What condition? "

" Before we start fighting, We are allowed to use our strongest defense so that we don't get hurt. "

Athan spoke this condition very calmly and waited for the response.

Hearing this type of condition, everyone felt speechless for a second before they started sniggering and laughing.

Many among the forty-eight students shook their heads and looked at Avelia with a mocking smile as they felt that what Athan said was too cowardly.

Ruthren sneered mockingly after hearing the condition and said, " Alright, I would feel bad if I don't accept this cowardly condition proposed by a cowardly student. But, I hope you don't propose this condition to your enemies in a fight; otherwise....hahaha they might die from laughter. "

" Pff...indeed, This could actually be a good idea to kill your enemy. "

....

The other students laughed out loud at Ruthren's words while Athan sighed and shook his head.

Avelia was fuming, but she believed in Athan and stayed silent, ' Athan, Show them who is the boss here. '

" Don't waste time and start the duel. "

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Both Athan and Ruthren flew up high in the sky.

Since Ruthren accepted Athan's condition, He used a powerful Defensive Spell, a diamond-like armor with bloody and brown patterns.

He was fully covered in that armor from head to toe.

Athan also used his Blood Armor spell on top of the Black Dragon Scaled suit.

Ruthren once again mocked Athan seeing his armor, " Is this your most powerful defensive spell? Can't you bring out something better? "

Athan grinned, hearing that, and said, " You are an old student, right? how old are you? "

Ruthren didn't know why Athan asked this, but he said, " Indeed, and I am 58 years old. But age doesn't matter. Since you reached this step, then we are both equal, so don't cry about unfairness. "

Athan was speechless and thought, ' Sigh, You really can't judge one by their appearance here. '

" Duel, Start "

Hearing Start, Both attacked at the same time.

But Athan was faster.

He just moved his fingers as Both chakrams appeared outside before disappearing instantly.

Ruthren face changed as he canceled his attacking move and used a barrier around him, but it was instantly shattered by the chakram that appeared briefly as they disappeared once more and appeared right beside him.

One at his left and one at his right.

*Crack crack...Krakrkarka*

His armor was shattered from both sides as bloody wounds appeared on his left and right hand, which he used to block both chakrams.

" AAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....."

He could feel his vitality leaving as his hands were dealt a fair amount of damage, and his bones were broken and shattered.

Athan recalled back the chakrams after one clash as he didn't want to injure him too much.

Seeing this, The middle-aged man spoke with amazement, " The Winner is Athan. " He then waved his hands towards Ruthren, who was screaming, and pulled him down before starting to heal him.

In just a minute, All of Ruthren's injuries were gone as he looked at Athan fearfully and thought, ' If I didn't use my most powerful defensive spells, then I would've been instantly dead. '

At this moment, He also realized the reason why Athan proposed that condition.

The other students were also dumbfounded, and their faces turned red.

When they remembered how they mocked Athan for proposing that condition, They felt like burying their faces inside the ground.

" I knew it!! Those useless fellows can't possibly a match for you. "

Avelia was so excited that when Athan descended, She dashed towards him and hugged him.

Athan was dumbfounded as he felt a bit uncomfortable but also...good. Nonetheless, He coughed as he felt wrong to do this when he already has Tiana and is trapped right now.

Avelia heard the cough as she realized what she has done and hastily separated from Athan with a red face and spoke in a low voice, " S-sorry. "

*Kacha...Kacha..*

Countless sounds of something breaking could be heard, As a lot of people who had feelings for Avelia felt their hearts shattered into pieces.

" Alright, The Spaceship is here. Everyone stand where you are and don't move. "

Hearing this, everyone stood still as they were pulled up after a few seconds and appeared inside a hall in the spaceship.

" Wormhole is ready, Preparing to jump through it. "

" 3 "

" 2 "

" 1 "

" 0 "

Everyone felt a brief discomfort as they passed through the wormhole.

This time, The middle-aged man also appeared on the spaceship.

He looked at Athan, Avelia, and the other four students before saying with an impassive face, " You eight, Follow me. The first dropping point is at Myriad Star Sector. "

They still followed the middle-aged man as they passed through a door and arrived at another, smaller hall.

There were several Stargates in the hall, and one of them was activated.

The middle-aged man looked at them and spoke, " This Stargate leads to the Myriad Stars Academy. Go and enter one by one. "

Athan and others nodded as they entered the Stargate one by one and appeared at the same place at the Myriad Stars Academy.

There were several teachers present there, and even Senior Rishen was standing there with a smile.

Athan and Avelia walked towards Senior Rishen when they spotted him.

' How did he get here? did he use another spaceship? ' Athan was a bit confused about Senior Rishen's appearance here, but after remembering about how he got the opportunity to practice in the blessed land due to him, Athan didn't delve deep into it as he was sure that Senior Rishen was definitely not just a simple elder of Myriad Stars Academy.

Senior Rishen looked at Athan and said with a smile, " Athan, You can be my official personal Student just by saying Yes. I have already informed the Teacher's hall about you, but you can say no too if you don't want that. "

Athan was surprised but pleasantly. He would be stupid and ungrateful if he said no, so he readily said yes.

He then looked at Senior Rishen and said with a smile, " Master. "

Senior Rishen shook his head with a smile and said, " No need to call me Master. Just call me teacher. Now relax for a few days, I'll call you later. "

He then opened a portal in which Athan and Avelia entered and appeared at Athan's treehouse.

Avelia started walking towards the house while saying happily, " Wait for a while. I'll whip out some good dishes. "

" Wait. "

Seeing Avelia turning back, Athan spoke with a calm expression, " I think it's time...that you tell me about something. "

" Something? " Avelia appeared confused at first, but after a few seconds, Her face changed as she remembered.

' I completely forgot about it after spending so many months with him...And now...' Avelia felt pain in her heart when she remembered the reason she approached Athan in the first place.

Her eyes revealed intense struggle and complicated feelings as she looked at Athan.

Seeing this, Athan spoke with a smile, " Avelia, I now consider you as my best friend. If I can solve your trouble, then I will definitely help you. "

" Best friends? " Avelia laughed bitterly, but she took a deep breath and said, " I am indeed in trouble, and only you can solve it. That's why I wanted to marry you. Because once we are married, You would definitely help me solve my trouble, But I was naive, tried forceful ways, and made mistakes. "

Athan nodded and asked with a doubt, " But how did you know that I could help you? "

Avelia arrived near Athan and showed her the palm of her hand, " Because of this. " She then closed her eyes.

Initially, there was nothing on her palm, but some weird patterns appeared and formed into a mark after a few seconds.

The mark looked like a white fox's head with silver horns on it, and it was glowing faintly.
