The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 318: Finale-3

The middle-aged man felt that some trouble might arise due to Gemdamo's death.

Athan felt the peculiar gaze of the middle-aged man and felt that something was wrong.

" After the competition is over, Don't leave this place and stay in the underground. "

Athan suddenly heard these words inside his ears and raised his eyebrows towards the middle-aged man.

" Why? "

Hearing this, The middle-aged man wryly smiled while shaking his head, " It looks like you don't know Gemdamo's background. Anyway, It's better that you stay here because you will most likely die if you go outside. The organizer of this competition can give you protection, but only if you stay here and do not return to your region or Gelamix town after receiving your rewards. "

After saying this, The middle-aged waved his hand to bring the body of Gemdamo away from the platform it was absorbed inside the ground.

Athan jumped onto the 4th rank pillar before the middle-aged man asked the competitors from rank 11 to rank 20 if they wanted to challenge higher rankers.

But none of them wanted to challenge anymore as the top thirty were decided.

" Since none of you want to challenge higher rankers, then you can go ahead and get the rewards of top 30. "

After saying this, The middle-aged man waved his right hand, and the competitors who were standing on pillars from rank 11 to rank 30 were absorbed inside the pillar and disappeared.

After doing this, He looked at the remaining ten competitors and smiled, " Now your turn, rank four to rank ten. Do any of you want to challenge anyone? But before any of you raise the challenge, Let me tell you that the rewards of rank four to rank ten are absolutely the same without even a minor difference, so you can only challenge someone in the top three. "

Athan hoped that someone would challenge someone in the top three so that he can get more time to recover the abyssal darkness that he spent while fighting Gemdamo.

The maximum break time one can get after challenging, and fighting is thirty-minute, but he needs one hour to recover the abyssal darkness he spent. If he challenged Sen, who is rank one right now, he wouldn't have enough abyssal darkness to defeat her.

' Actually, I should be able to defeat her if I use my remaining abyssal darkness in one straight attack, but...' Athan shook his head as he felt that this was not feasible because his current reserve of abyssal darkness was not enough to protect him and defeat Sen at the same time.

Also, He was not sure about other trump cards Sen because from the reaction of the audience, and other participates, It was clear as day that she was considered to be a champion in this competition from the start.

The only one who fought her in this final round was him. All others who were later matched with her simply surrendered and gave up the match.

Athan swept his glance at other competitors to see if anyone was thinking about challenging.

He still had thirty-minute break time, so he can recover enough of his abyssal darkness to defeat Sen even if no one from rank 4 to rank 10 challenged the top 3. It's just...he would have to finish the match in a speed and straightforward manner at that time. In case of attacks from Sen, He won't be able to use abyssal darkness to defend himself since he would put most of his abyssal darkness on offense.

At this time, The middle-aged man spoke, " One minute left. If none of you want to challenge the top three, your top ten rankings will become final. "

Athan frowned as he glanced at others in the top ten. Some showed hesitation, but none of them came forward to challenge.

" Five, Four, Three, Two,..."

Before the middle-aged man count one, Athan spoke.

" I want to challenge rank 1, Sen Theorus. "

Hearing this, The spectators and other competitors made uproar because Athan had already given up a match against Sen after getting a beating from her.

None of them thought that Athan would challenge Sen. It would be more reasonable if he challenged rank two or rank three to get the top three rewards.

The middle-aged looked at Athan and couldn't help but feel uneasy when he looked at Athan.

But he composed himself and asked, " Do you want to challenge her right now or after your recovery time is over? There are still twenty-four minutes until your recovery time is finished. "

Athan nodded and replied, " After my recovery time is finished. "

" Alright. "

Saying this, The middle-aged man swept his glance at others in the top ten, " Now except Athan, You won't have the chance to challenge anyone in the top three. Your ranking is finalized. "

The competitors from rank five to rank ten nodded as they accepted their results.

...

It didn't take long for the twenty-four minutes to be over.

" Get on the battle platform. "

The middle-aged man spoke on time while glancing at Athan.

Athan and Sen jumped onto the battle platform. Sen faintly smiled at Athan before saying, " The results won't change. "

Athan grinned at her with his eyes narrowing slightly, " The results will definitely change. When that happens, You have to stay strong and not cry over it. "

Sen was speechless hearing that but then nodded with a laugh, " Alright. I am looking forward to that. "

Suddenly, Athan heard the voice of a middle-aged man inside his ears, " Ummm...Don't kill her. She has a backing more powerful than Gemodamo's and has a connection to the organizer of this competition. "

Hearing this, Athan was slightly stunned and looked at the middle-aged man who was nodded towards Athan. The middle-aged man still had a slight confusion in his eyes because he himself was surprised that he told something like this to Athan.

But after seeing the death of Gemdamo, He felt something strange about Athan and couldn't help but worry for Sen. Even though he felt that Sen was stronger than Athan in every way possible logically, He just couldn't shake his uneasy feelings when thinking about Athan's means when he killed Gemdamo.
