The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 432: Name on Leaderboard.

Athan left the Event dimension as the Blue Genie opened materialized the gothic door.

Max, who also had just left the event dimension, waited for Athan to come out.

Everyone once again knew that He broke the All-time high record of Linci.

Athan also just passed through the door and arrived outside to see Max standing not too far from the four gothic doors.

" Hahaha, Congrats. So where do you want to go? The next event or...Wonder Hill Pavilion? " Max asked after a hearty laugh.

" The next event. " Athan plainly stated as he walked towards the exit.

Max grinned as he followed Athan outside to the main hall of Newbie Event Palace.

But the hall was in an uproar.

" Who is that Athan Void? What's going on? "

" I don't know, man. Never heard of him before. I guess he must be someone recruited by a Hill Decon or Hill Master. "

" Yeah. All new recruits from batches have finished events, so if they were good, they would appear in the top 100 at least once before climbing ranks. But this person just sat at 2nd rank out of nowhere. This means he at least can't be someone from the latest batch that arrived today. "

" He would, of course, appear at 2nd score considering the two scores he got in first two events. It's fucking nuts how high his scores are, especially the score of Hold The Fortress. "

...

Everyone speculated about the sudden name that sat on the 2nd rank in the Newbie Leaderboard in the main hall.

They expected his name to appear there right after they got the 2nd notification of the All-time high record-break of Hold The Fortress Event with a whooping 250,000 score.

Athan ignored the commotion as he continued with his walking pace towards the 3rd Event lobby's doors.

" By the way, The next event will take several days to complete instead of just one hour. " Max spoke while walking along with Athan.

" Mhmm. " Athan just nodded plainly as he continued to move.

Max was a bit speechless at Athan's response, ' What Mhmm? Sigh...'

He thought that Athan would decide to take a break after hearing that but no...

Suddenly, His eyes shined, and he spoke, " Athan, I'll meet you later. I got an urgent thing to do. "

He then dashed forward and overtook Athan.

Athan didn't slow down his footsteps as he continued moving. As he was still walking towards the event lobby's doors, He saw Max dashing forward towards a group of three people. All three of them had cicada-like wings behind them with peach-colored body skin and light blue horns on top of their heads.

One of them was a girl, while the other two were men who had a respectful expressions on their faces as they followed the girl.

Athan didn't pay any attention there since he arrived in front of the event lobby's doors which were different than the previous two lobby doors.

There was a square white cloud screen right beside the left door that displayed [ 15 ] in green letters. He didn't know the meaning of that, but he entered the lobby nonetheless.

[ Wilderness Connent Event ]

After entering the event lobby, He registered his entry by scanning his crystal card at the monolith in the event lobby.

This lobby was different as it was way bigger than the previous two lobbies—at least four times bigger.

There were fifteen gothic doors and lots of people sitting at the tables, waiting for their turn.

Athan found a single table on which no people sat and walked towards it before sitting at it.

' It looks like It will take some time for my turn to come. ' Athan thought as he looked around before simply leaning back on the comfy cloudly chair and closed his eyes.

...

Outside at the main hall...

Linci also entered the event lobby of Wilderness Connect now since after finishing the Hold The Fortress event, she got called at Realm Communication Pavilion.

Her current state appeared a bit unstable if one looked closely into her eyes. She was angry and...helplessly sad.

' Did they decided to aban- No...They wouldn't do such a thing. I just need to bear staying here for extra few more years; that's all. '

Even though she convinced herself, Her mood was terrible, and her face was cold with no emotion.

She opened the lobby door and entered.

*silence...*

The lively lobby suddenly became silent slowly as people noticed her. They started to look around in the lobby for some reason.

Linci ignored them and went towards the monolith at the corner to register her entry.

On the other hand, Athan didn't pay any attention to whatever was happening here. He was just thinking about the voidlings with his eyes closed and experimenting with voidpulse and soul energy inside his void region while leisurely leaning on the chair at the table.

' This feeling...whenever I do this, I feel that strange connection solidifying for a millisecond. '

Athan was lost in his thoughts when he heard someone calling out to him.

" Hey, Maskman with the weird yet cool outfit. "

Athan opened his eyes and saw a man with heavy metal-like clothes and dark brownish pink skin talking to him from the table in front of him. There was another person, a lady sitting with that guy at that table. The lady looked like a normal human with no additional body features.

Seeing Athan tilting his head towards them, The lady spoke with a smile, " Can you please go stand at the side? That cold beauty has arrived here, and she would sit at a table too. So...can you give her this table since you're the only one sitting alone at a table while the rest of the tables has two or three people sitting at them. "

The man with heavy-metal clothes and strange skin also spoke before nodding, " Yeah. She will also likely arrive at your table since you are the only one sitting alone at a table. You should already know about her strange power, so better get up now. "

At this moment, Linci was preciously walking towards them since she noticed Athan.

But her mood was not improved, and she also heard the words of those two people telling Athan to get up.

On the other hand, Athan frowned at the two people calling out to him. Naturally, They couldn't see his frown due to the mask, " Don't disturb me regarding useless things. Your first and last warning. "

He then closed his eyes once again and leaned on the comfy chair.

The lady grimaced as she spoke with a frown, " We are asking politely and for your sake. Wh-"

" Get up. "

*tremble...*

The strange skin man and lady trembled as they felt cold creeping up to them.

Linci passed by Athan's table and stood in front of them with an indifferent expression on her face.

Both of them hurridly stood up and went to another table where two people were sitting since each table had four chairs.

Linci sat down at the table and glanced at unmoving Athan for a moment before taking a book and started reading it.

On the other hand, The man and lady glared at Athan but were also confused about why Linci told them to get up instead of Athan.

Naturally, Linci didn't want to bother Athan as she clearly heard him speaking about not disturbing him regarding useless things. She had acknowledged him as someone powerful based on his score. And she also didn't like how those two people told someone else to stand up for their own convenience.

She was actually curious to find out how long can Athan withstand staying within 2 meters of her. Even her father could stay for a max of 15 mins within 2 meters of her despite his strength. After all, The longer one stays within 2 meters of her, the more potent those strange wisps coming out from her becomes.
