The Tale of the Void Emperor

*Siiiiiiiii......*

"This chaotic power is really powerful and better than the one that I used to refine my body yesterday...my body is rapidly gaining strength," Athan muttered as he was currently under a strange waterfall. The waterfall was red hot thick liquid with amber sparks.

Athan's body was currently crystallized into amber that was millions of degrees hot due to the effect of this chaotic power.

He was training with the new method he came up with, which required a lot of voidpulse, so he was constantly released abyssal darkness to devour amber crystal on his body to produce void pulses.

He found out that there were additional effects of this power. This chaotic power was making his blood boil, quite literally, which made his blood become thicker and robust, enhancing his physical strength to a new height.

Suddenly, Athan's eyes turned sharp.

*crack....*

He broke out from his crystallized state, his body red like a tomato and pimping hot.

"Let's go, Limbus," Athan spoke as he took out Limbus from his void region, who then wrapped around Athan before turning into four wings.

*Wistle...wistle...*

*Zoooooooom...*

Limbus was a king-grade chaos beast, so its flying speed was really fast. Actually, faster than average king-grade chaos beasts considering his forte was speed.

After flying for two minutes, Athan saw three giant frogs with wings chasing after Shiromi, Sen, Arcued, and Tealery. Sen was carrying Shiromi because she was severely injured, and her body below her waist was gone.

All three frogs were lord-grade chaos beasts, and one of the giant frogs was injured. Naturally, Sen and others injured it and were doing quite well against it with their teamwork and aid of voidlings. However, two more frogs suddenly arrived, forcing them to start fleeing.

Shiromi was trembling while carried by Sen because the giant frog's power was wreaking havoc inside her body.

However, Shiromi had gritted her teeth with a determined expression and endured the pain. But tears still appeared in her eyes because the pain was too much. At this time, she remembered Athan's indifferent face in front of any kind of pain, which gave her strength as she became more determined.

"ATHAN! HURRY UP," Sen shouted seeing that Shiromi's body had turned dark green and was dissolving. Her internal organs were damaged, and the chaotic power was also affecting Shiromi's soul. However, Shiromi was still fighting back with her powerful soul while suffering the pain.

"That frog's power was poisonous...," Sen muttered with a worried expression.

*BOOOOOOOOOOM....*

*GROOOOOOOOOOO.....*

Athan punched one of the frogs with his full power, which flew and crashed into the other two frogs.

The three giant frogs crashed into a mountain and fell down.

Right after that, a small black orb flew towards the giant frogs before it blasted as abyssal darkness spewed out and started devouring the frogs.

On the other hand, Athan had longed arrived beside Sen after releasing his attacks and looked at Shiromi with a smile, "good job holding on."

Athan put his hand on Shiromi's forehead as he first gave her a boost of soul energy.

Afterward, he released void pulses and started recovering her body.

After just ten seconds, Shiromi's body turned into tip-top condition with even new clothes on them.

"How are you feeling, now?" Athan asked Shiromi as Shiromi stood up.

"Good," Shiromi nodded with a smile.

"You dummy," Sen said with a pout as she flicked Shiromi's forehead, "Why did you shoulder that attack all by yourself? Sigh..."

"Indeed. Please don't do such things by yourself next time," Tealery said with a worried expression.

"It's my fault!" Arcued shouted with a depressed expression, "I should have sensed that, but...but, didn't pay attention to the surrounding when I could."

"It's fine, guys. Next time, be more careful," Athan said before he looked at Shiromi, "you too. Even though I am putting all of you in danger, I don't want to lose any of you, so you better stay alive for me, or I don't know what I'd do."

Athan still hadn't told them that he could revive them...at least once for now since he also didn't have complete knowledge of how it worked.

"That's unreasonable," Shiromi said with a chuckle.

"True true," Sen punched Athan's chest as she smiled happily.

"Well, that's me," Athan said as he rubbed his nose with a grin, "now let's go back to training."

"Wait, Athan. You just punched that lord-grade chaos beast...so your battle power," Tealery said as she activated her power sensors to check Athan's strength.

Athan removed the obscure veil as a grin surfaced on his face.

"Y-your body strength...2.4 million? what the fuck?" Telaery gasped and couldn't help but cuss in shock.

Hearing that, Shiromi, Sen, and Arcued eyes became wider as they hurriedly checked Athan's body.

"How?" Sen asked with a shocked expression.

"Haha. I found a way to make my body stronger quickly," Athan said with a laugh, "I could do this earlier. Still, it didn't cross my mind considering that body order path of the chaosverse bound me."

"But how are you doing it?" Shiromi asked with a curious expression.

"Actually, I am using void pulse to expand my body cells' limit constantly as I forcefully absorb all kinds of body chaotic powers to refine my body and make it strong. Since I can create anything with voidpulse as long as I completely understand it, I decided to limit break my physical body with it constantly," Athan said with a grin.

"Wait...so you forcefully stuff chaotic powers into your cells and let them absorb and refine the chaotic powers to make your body strong?" Shiromi asked with wide eyes, "just how much pain would that cause you all the time?"

"Eh...yeah, something like that, "Athan nodded before he grinned, "as for pain? Nah, I don't pay attention to it."

Sen suddenly hugged Athan tightly and spoke, "how does this feel? Is my hug making you feel good?"

"Hahaha, it indeed is making me feel good," Athan said with a loud laugh.

Shiromi was silent and in thought, 'he feels pain as well...But his endurance of pain is so high that he can just ignore it. He feels pain just like how he feels good, but he can ignore pain...? How? How can he do that?'

"Good. Now, promise me that after every small training session, you would visit me, Avelia, or Tiana for a tight hug to feel good," Sen said with a stubborn expression, "promise me you would do that."

"I promise," Athan said with a smile.

Shiromi suddenly walked towards Athan with a dazed expression as if she was in thought and hugged Athan, making everyone surprised.

However, Shiromi's face turned red after she realized what she did and hurridly separated from Athan before saying with a blushed face, "I..umm, you can hug me as well."

After saying that, she turned around and looked at Sen, Tealery, and Arcued, "now let's go and continue our training and resource collecting."

She then started flying in a random direction.

"Wait, don't go alone," Tealery and Arcued went after her.

"Hahaha, that was cute," Sen chuckled before she turned to Athan, "Hey, when are you going rope Shiromi in?"

"When she makes up her mind firmly," Athan said with a faint smile, "now you go too."

"Alright," Sen nodded before she flew after Shiromi as well.

...

Athan returned to the Crimson Amberic waterfall and continued with his training.
