The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 499: Sadness and Happiness.

"What the hell happened? How did the Vice-head of Great Bridgade Palace and his son die? This is...like so sudden."

"Indeed. There was no news of them trying to attempt something or like that...hehe, which means that someone or some people killed them."

"The Great Bridgade Palace itself is silent about this matter. But the news is that they are doing an intense investigation. After all, they also don't know the cause of their deaths."

The news about Vice-head Ruzald and his talented son, Muvald, who was rank three on Supreme Genius Leaderboard die mysterious spread like wildfire.

Head Zangrel announced that he would look after Gardues family, and if someone dared to have their eyes on them, They would become enemies of Great Bridgade Palace.

...

"Head Zangrel, thank you very much for your support." Juzald and Luzard, the current heads of the Gardues family, bowed towards Head Zangrel in gratitude.

Head Zangrel had a solemn expression on his face as he shook his head and said, "As the head of Great Bridgade Palace, it is my responsibility to look after your family since Ruzald is no more. I have already sealed this space and put up formations so whoever your enemy is won't be able to harm your family anymore. But still be careful when you go out and do your business, you two."

Juzald and Luzard nodded with serious expressions.

"We will. Also, did you contact the head family in the upper-Chaosverse?" Juzald asked with hope. He knew that they didn't have much value in the head family's eyes but still hoped that they would aid them.

" I did," Head Zangrel nodded before he sighed, "But they are also busy with something important, so they can't do anything right now. Still, worry not because they left this matter to me, so I will do my best to find the perpetrators who plotted this scheme to kill Ruzald and Munvald."

...

Naturally, Head Zangrel didn't contact anyone from Upper-Chaosverse. All of this was Head Zangrel playing with them until Athan will root them out in the future.

Things went smoothly because the Gardues brothers and other family members were scared that the killer would kill them next after killing their pillar of support, Ruzald, and their hope, Munvald.

Naturally, Juzald and Luzard were not scared and wanted to take revenge, which is why they will be taking part in the search.

But they didn't know that their fate was already sealed.

...

On the other hand, Athan was finally going to show Avelia the memories of his time spending together with her and others.

Currently, Athan, Tiana, and Avelia were inside one of the small open-air pavilions at one of the hills on Newcomer's abode.

Avelia had a nervous expression, and her heart was racing. All these days of staying with Athan, her feelings for him were made clear by each day, and she couldn't deny it.

Athan gently smiled as he grabbed Avelia's hand and said, "Are you ready?"

Avelia bit her lips and nodded with a blush. Seeing this, Tiana chuckled, "You were completely different when you met Athan the first time. Hehe, now look. You are acting like a little girl in love."

"Tiana!..," Avelia pouted at Tiana, and Athan also laughed out loud as he remembered his early days.

"Alright. I am starting now."? Athan said as he started showing all of his memories to Avelia.

Avelia nodded, and right after that, she closed her eyes as many memories of her being together with Athan surfaced.

At one point, her face turned completely red like a tomato. But in the end, tears started to fall from her eyes.

" A-athan...," Avelia spoke his name before she directly hugged him and started crying.

She was feeling heartbroken for him that he had to suffer such a fate.

Athan smiled and caressed her back before saying in a gentle voice, " Everything is fine now. I am just happy that you are back to me now. "

"B-but..*Sniff*...I can clearly feel my emotion and love for you, but *sob* why can't I remember you in my real memories? What happened to you?" Avelia asked as she looked at Athan with tear-filled face.

Avelia was sad for Athan and also happy that finally, she and Tiana returned to Athan's side.

Athan wryly smiled and shook his head, "I met an accident when I was in Genome dimension realm. But everything is fine since you and Tiana have returned to me."

Avelia smiled with teary eyes and nodded, "Yes. I am never going to leave you again. Never."

Tiana's eyes were also filled with tears as she hugged Athan with Avelia.

Athan was truly happy right now as a heart-warming smile formed on his face, 'Everything is and will be fine from now on...I will make sure of that!'

This thought of Athan will bring about chaos and carnage, but he will make sure to achieve his goal and ambition! Even more so when he already knows that he is still weak compared to the vaster worlds out there.

...

A month soon passed just like that as everyone peacefully trained and practiced.

Athan also told Tiana and Avelia to sit under Efyeed without wasting time so they could acquire innate physique because the sooner they get it, the better.

Athan had also told Dean to convert his Newbie leaderboard rewards into Kuriazak fruit, which was agreed by the management of Chaos Monolith Hills. And Dean also finally sent the first batch of Kuriazak fruits to Athan.

So he now had a total of 27 Kuriazak fruits. Dean sent him 24 fruits, while the other 3 were rewards from his first rank on the Newbie Leaderboard of the previous month.

Currently, Athan was sitting crossed-legged on an empty hill nearby while eating the Kuriazak fruits.

He had already eaten eight fruits and waited for the catastrophe, but after a minute, he frowned since the catastrophe didn't arrive.

'Don't tell me I need more fruits to call catastrophe in Essence Catastrophe phase?...sigh.' Sighing, Athan ate another fruit, but nothing happened.

He then ate one more fruit and finally sensed the coming of catastrophe.

'Ten fruits for one catastrophes? Fuck,' Athan cursed before he closed his eyes and focused on defending against the Essence catastrophe because it would directly appear inside his body and attack his Order Eidos and also try to destroy his chaos region.

Inside his void region...

The Orderic Codex bubbled with dark pink energy like lava as several creatures suddenly produced from it and started attacking his Order Eidos.

But Athan was prepared as he used his chaos force and order force to execute essence order technique to kill those beasts and also used defensive-essence order techniques to defend against their attack.

After a while, He successfully survived his first essence catastrophe and felt a strange force-producing from catastrophe codex.

This force was not aggressive, but it was the reward of sort for passing the catastrophe.

The force enveloped his Order Edios and Chaos Curtain as he felt his Order force and Chaos force upgrading.

This upgrade brought qualitative change to order force and chaos force while also increasing the recovery speed of his order force in Orderic Codex.

After the upgrade was over, Athan didn't consolidate his order base just like his body strength because Kuriazak fruits had the ability to do that for him.

'Continue eating...,' Thought Athan as he started eating more Kuriazak fruits while also thinking about methods to get more Kuriazak fruits since he now knew that he would need more of them to call his next catastrophes.
