The Tale of the Void Emperor

"The first option is that...I kill four hundred and seventy-seven of you completely," Athan said before pausing for a second.

"The second option is that...I kill four hundred and seven-seven of you...but not completely. I will leave you with 1% of your soul origin so you can reincarnate."

Hearing that, everyone's heart turned cold.

So they are going to fucking die either way? WTF?

"What? You thought you had any chance to leave alive after attacking me?" Athan said as he narrowed his eyes, "you attacked me with the intention to kill me. Those hundred something people didn't attack me, so they are spared, but you all will die...for sure."

"Just...you can choose a method of your death," Athan said as a smile crept on his face, "You want to completely, where your existence is wiped out, with not even a trance of yourself remaining in reality. Or you want to die a normal death, and I will let go of 1% of your soul origin."

"FUCK YOU!"

*Poof..*

Everyone looked around, but they didn't know why.

The person who shouted was a human from 7th Lerento and was a king of one of the most powerful Empires. He shouted and blasted with all of his power to escape, but in just a second, a black haze devoured him entirely. Athan gave him the true death.

That's why everyone became confused.

"What happened?"

"I remember hearing a shout but don't know how shouted."

"I saw him, but I...don't remember him. T-this..."

Athan waved his hand as he created a cloud screen using voidpulse, and his eyes glowed a bit before he sent what he saw with his eyes into the cloud so that everyone could see.

"Look at this cloudly screen. Do you remember him?"

Everyone, including Reventas, Nukkil, and others, looked at the cloud screen.

Everyone saw a man shouting and even heard the voice. They saw man exploding with his power, trying to escape but the next second...

Poof. He disappeared as black haze swept around him in a second. The black haze was the void domain's power. This domain would only remain active until the baptism process.

"So? you remember this person?" Athan asked again after everyone finished watching.

However, every single person was shocked beyond belief.

THEY COULDN'T REMEMBER HIM!

"I...I don't remember him. I feel like I have seen him, but I just can't remember him."

"What's going on?"

"He was there...but we can't remember him. His existence has been w-wiped."

...

Everyone was shocked, and their heart dropped to the bottom of their belly. The fear in their gaze was now multiplied when they looked at Athan.

Reventas and Nukkil looked at each other in disbelief.

'You also can't remember?' Nukkil asked Reventas but Reventas shook her head with a somber expression.

"Now you know what true death is?" Athan said with a grin, "after a few minutes; he will truly, utterly, and completely disappear from everyone's memories, even his loved ones."

"I call this...existence wiped."

The horror in everyone's eyes intensified hearing those words. They didn't want to experience this. They didn't want something like that to happen to them.

Everyone was literally trembling just thinking about experiencing true death.

"So now...Choose your option. Do you want death or existence wiped?"

The words of Athan were akin to a lord of death. He was giving them death, and they will have to accept it.

They never imagined that they would be presented with such a choice in their wildest dreams.

Choose death or choose...the worst kind of death.

But death it is for them, and it's set in the stone.

Each of those four hundred seventy-seven individuals had despair in their eyes because they knew they were going to die, and if they tried to escape, they would have a fate worse than death...their existence would be wiped out completely!

"Kill me and please...leave 1% of my soul origin as you said."

"Me too."

Despair-filled words resounded from their mouths, causing Athan to nod his head in satisfaction.

...

After a day, the battlefield only had one hundred and twelve people.

Athan took all those four hundred and seventy-seven people's souls and sent 1% of their origin outside before putting all of them in his whirlpool.

Though he had to make that whirlpool bigger so that he could put all souls inside.

Afterward, Athan removed the void field and spoke to the remaining people, "you all can go now."

Reventas wanted to say something, but before she could, Athan disappeared.

"Sigh..." Reventas sighed.

"Well...It's better that we don't get involved with him now that we know his true power. I mean...we don't know his true power, but he is an anomaly that even you can't see through or gauge," Nukkil said with a wry smile.

...

On the other hand, Athan left with his full speed and exited the Vitality Spectrum Zone. He sent a message to Yokan that they might not meet again in the near future.

As for what the future holds, Athan doesn't know. He didn't know where he had to go, but after absorbing so many souls and reading their memories, he knew that there was an Outrious Expanse.

This Orchos Firmament was on this Outrious Expanse...like a giant "hidden" bubble in a vast space. There were many bubbles hidden like that in Outrious Expanse, and Athan felt that he would finally get everyone back after reaching that place.

Naturally, there was a grand structure to it, but people here didn't know about it.

After Athan left the Vitality Spectrum Zone, he was surprised by the atmosphere outside for a second before discovering why it was so messy outside.

The skies were changing colors and wreathing with colorful and unique auras constantly.

Not just this sky but the entire Orchos Firmament was shocked to the core.

These phenomenons only indicated one thing: the death of an Everlasting Legendary powerhouse.

However, such messy phenomenons mean that more than one Everlasting Legendary powerhouse died.

The entire population of Orchos Firmament was shocked beyond belief, especially those top powers who found out that their leaders, patriarch, clan master, leaders, kings, etc.,...died.

However, Athan was finished with his journey. He killed the person who was after Mimi, got her revenge away, gathered enough souls and enough body resources.

Now, his plan was to go back to where Lily and others were training and continue training inside the Ark space after this baptism process is finished.

Athan didn't hold back on the process and quickly let the final process of baptism complete as his void region completely upgraded.

He felt a 55% profound understanding of the Abyssal void of Fabrication properly-getting branded in his soul as the white orb and black orb further upgraded in their capacity since they were connected to his soul.

His void robe, void mask, void field were upgraded further as well. Most importantly, he actually felt a clear path in front of him but couldn't understand it. However, he knew that he could try to comprehend AVOF further once he absorbed all these legendary souls and reached his soul limit.

He tried to contact the origin AVOF realm and Primo but failed as he received no response from them.

"Sigh....," Athan shook his head before becoming determined again, "I am coming there."
