The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 452: End of The Farce.

" Are you sure? Those people of other factions will not leave you alone in the next five years. " Frenzel asked with doubt.

" Hehehe...." Athan smiled coldly before speaking, " I dare them to do so. Anyway, As long as we are in this place monitored by your strange methods, we won\'t die, right? After all, The saying [ What doesn\'t kill us, makes us stronger ] will apply to us more than others. "

Dean Lenix shook his head with a slight grimace, " It\'s indeed true that this place on the cloudly plain is monitored, but it\'s just that, Monitored. It won\'t prevent your death if someone tries to kill you. Naturally, the perpetrator will receive fate worse than death after that, but...possibility of death is not zero here since such cases have happened.

Of course, With the monitoring, it\'s easy to sense killing intent and such actions so that we can rush there, but there is still a chance of death if the enforcers and protectors can\'t make it in time. "

" Oh? Hahaha, Then it makes things easier for me. " Athan smiled deviously as he cracked his index finger, " If there\'s such monitoring then...It\'s okay to kill the other party in self-defense, right? "

The enforcers looked at each other wryly while Dean nodded with a smile, " Naturally, As long as the actions are monitored, We will recognize the act of self-defense. "

" Well, then...That\'s my demand. Enforcer Frenzel will start guarding my people and me after we finish our new recruit term. " Athan spoke and concluded the deal.

Frenzel also nodded before saying, " Now tell Efyeed to state its thoughts and how it feels regarding Danfer. "

Athan looked at Efyeed and spoke lazily with a carefree smile, " Go ahead, Efyeed. "

But before Efyeed could form symbols, Primo suddenly jumped on one of its branches and spoke angrily, " Efyeed. Don\'t speak in a polite tone. Tell them harshly as to how delusional they were to judge the worth of our Master. "

Efyeed swayed before the many symbols started to form on the trunk as everyone started hearing its voice in their heads.

" Danfer is a more suitable Master for me than...My current.." Efyeed spoke in an utmost calm manner. Hearing that, everyone looked at Athan pitifully, but...the end of Efyeed\'s sentence confused them.

" My current... Master? " Efyeed\'s voice turned heavy and into intense questioning at the end.

" YOU FOOLS THINK THAT THIS BRAT SITTING UNDER ME IS MORE WORTHY THAN MY CURRENT MASTER?!! " Everyone was thunderstruck hearing that as chaotic and destructive colorful forces appeared around Efyeed.

Danfer almost peed his pants as he hurridly escaped from under the Efyeed and hid behind his grandfather.

Dean Lenix, giant Geodrok, and all others looked with wide eyes at angry Efyeed.

On the other hand, Primo was super excited, " NYAAAAAAA...TELL THEM! "

" You delusional fools! None of you or that brat will compare to my current Master even after thousand lives, HUMPH! What Verdant Star Lotus\'s blessing? It\'s just a spec of Its blessing, and even if he got more qualitative blessing of Star Lotus, He would still be worthless compared to my current Master. DAMN FOOLS! You, Little Lenix. I remember you training under me many years ago; You dare doubt my judgment? "

Dean Lenix helplessly smiled as he wiped the sweat on his forehead, " Err...I don\'t mean like that. I was just thinking on your behalf, and I didn\'t know you put Athan on such a high pedestal. I just thought that someone with Verdant Star Lotus\'s blessing would help you advance your life form in the future since Verdant Star Lotus is of a higher-level life form than you. "

Geodrok and Enforcers trembled even though they knew that Efyeed wouldn\'t hurt them due to the oath it took when its previous Master put Efyeed here.

Athan himself was dumbfounded as he looked at Efyeed and Primo floating around excitedly.

\' That\'s enough, you two. Leave it that. \'

Efyeed replied to Athan, \' Understood, Master. \'

After that, Efyeed once again changed symbols before telling everyone, " Since this stupid farce is over, then open the exit. My Master still has a lot to do. "

Dean Lenix and others looked at Athan, who shrugged his shoulders while smiling, " I didn\'t do nothing. "

Speechless, Dean Lenix shook his head and conjured a door before gesturing Athan, " Good luck in your endeavors, Athan. Don\'t cause much chaos inside here. Instead, do it when you go outside after five years. "

Efyeed returned to Athan before he started walking towards the exit. Before going through the doors, He replied in a laughing tone, " That depends on my enemies. "

...

After Athan returned outside, Mitra found him while he was on his way to the Hill range where Newbie stayed.

" Stop, stop, Athan! I am here to deliver this month\'s Leaderboard reward that was not sent to your Crystal Card\'s storage because you didn\'t upgrade your crystal card after reaching the requirement. " Mitra spoke with a sigh before she took out a green wooden box with brown patterns and handed it to Athan.

" Now, first go to a random monolith and upgrade your crystal card. You just need to put it in any monolith, and it will complete the upgrade. "

After saying that, She left.

Athan looked at the box but decided to put it inside his void region before going inside the Newbie Event Palace since it was nearest him.

He put his crystal card on one of the monoliths erected inside the entrance hall of Newbie Event Palace and finished the upgrade.

" Hmm...I didn\'t check my Crystal card ever since that time. " Muttered Athan as he infused his soul sense inside the crystal card and saw the difference.

" Steel Vine fruits? It looks like something that can help my body. Oh yeah, I also need to check my body strength. It should have surpassed Blue Realm. But before that, I\'ll return to where others are. They should be waiting for my news. " Athan muttered as he flew towards the Hill range known as Newcomers Abode.

While flying, He opened the wooden box Mitra gave him inside his void region and he was surprised at the content in it, " What is this? "

It was a strange jelly-like substance that was dark blue in color with sparkling red patterns on it.

Athan saw a piece of paper in the box too and started reading it.

After reading it, Athan raised his eyebrows in surprise, " So this type of equipment exists too? It\'s almost like some high-tech bio gear. "

He then cut his finger to get a drop of blood and took out the wooden box before putting the drop of blood on the jelly-like substance.

Right after that, the jelly-like substance started moving like a slime. Athan put his hand on the jelly and it reacted instantly as it started covering his entire right arm.

It moved from his right hand to his left hand and stopped only after entirely covering both of his arms. After that, the substances started to change as they solidified into a solid full armor of arms.

\' But I don\'t need this. Hmmm, guess I\'ll give it to Arcued since he fights short-range with his dagger more. \'
