The Tale of the Void Emperor-Chapter 699: Gaze Of Void, Killed By Mistake.
Because of Athan's words, the rewards were changed as Aren received an Epic-grade beast's egg and an Epic-grade flying ship that could fight and defend against 1st step Epic-stage powerhouses.
After the ceremony was over, Dreevindo led Athan back, but they encountered two people on the way. A young man and a young woman with the appearance of twenties. They were none other hand price and princess of this Empire. The prince is called Yenkal, and the princess is called Binita.
"So you are the one who rejected my sister?" the young spoke as he looked at Athan with narrowed eyes.
"Yeah, haha, what are you going to do about it?"
At this moment, Lily and Huarin also arrived in the corridor.
Yenkal and Binita turned around with a frown on their face as they saw Lily and Huarin walking towards them.
"Humph, you are not as important as this guy, so better watch your mouth and know who you are talking to before speaking anything," Yenkal said with a snort as he looked at Lily and Huarin. His words were laced with explicit threats.
However, Lily chuckled and shook her head, "what are you going to do to me?"
"I can't kill you because it would be a waste, heh," Yenkal sneered before saying, "however, I can make your life miserable. Don't forget where you are standing, silly woman."
"And you," spoke Binita as she looked at Athan with a deadpan expression, "you are not worthy of me. I already have someone I love, and if he knew that there was someone, a person from Chaosverse, who dared to reject me, then he would kill you, and my father also can't stop him."
Binita gritted her teeth and continued, "my father made this decision because I have yet to tell him about me getting together with Prince Valiod. We met in the Murken Star Academ-"
"Look," Athan interrupted her with a plain expression and spoke, "I am not interested in your story or you or your affairs. Go tell your father whatever you want to and stop picking trouble with me."
"Let's go," Athan said as he passed by the brother and sister. Lily and Huarin also turned around seeing Athan coming towards them while Dreevindo naturally followed Athan.
*tham...*
"Stop!"
Yenkal grabbed Athan's shoulder and spoke, "you can leave but not those two women. Heh, even if you are important, you can't harm me in my own territory."
Yenkal then looked at Lily and Huarin before speaking with a sneer, "you wanted to know what I'd do to you, right? Just stay here, and I will show you, hahaha."
"Heh, I dare you to try anything," Lily mocked and smiled, "I swear that I will entirely remove the gene root of your reproductive organ and destroy it so that it will never be regenerated. You can become a eunuch of this Empire after that, hahaha."
"YOU!" Yenkal fumed, but before he could say anything, he saw Athan turning around, and his gaze fell into Athan's eyes.
Athan looked at Yenkal as a gleam of black and white passed through his eyes, 'I might as well check out the new Gaze of Void.'
"Remove your hand," Athan spoke as he used his Gaze of Void, which consumed a single Abyssal Blood Crystal and also 20% of his soul energy.
Suddenly, Yenkal felt an overwhelming pressure upon his existence, and his hand on Athan's shoulder was removed before both of his knees gave away as he kneeled.
"Yenkal?" Binita was confused, but then her expression turned into anger. However, Dreevindo hurriedly stood in front of her and stopped her from attacking Athan.
"Princess Binita, calm down!" Dreevindo said before he created a barrier around Binita and then turned to Athan before speaking in a helpless voice, "Athan, please stop."
Suddenly, everyone felt overwhelming pressure.
'Dreevindo, don't resist!' Athan said telepathically to Dreevindo as he touched his head because he was a shorty and his head was the closest thing to Athan.
'Lily, Huarin, enter inside the Ark, NOW!' Athan spoke telepathically to Lily and Huarin before he and Dreevindo disappeared.
Lily and Huarin also disappeared.
After four of them disappeared, a roar resounded across the entire palace.
...
"What is this place? Woah...this, this almost like a blessed land, such pure orchos energy. It's perfect for consolidating our Gene roots and whole Genealogy path after every training," Dreevindo muttered as he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Suddenly, Dreevindo felt a life-threatening feeling, and a cage suddenly materialized around him. The cage was golden with red patterns, and Dreevindo felt that he would die if he did something funny.
He looked at Lily because she was the one who used it; he felt her soul sense when this cage materialized, 'what the hell? How can she be this powerful?..NO! This is not her power, this...this power.'
Dreevindo looked around in this strange place before coming to a conclusion, 'It's the power of this place.'
"What happened, Athan? Why did you tell us to enter here in a hurry?" Lily asked.
Huarin also nodded.
On the other hand, Mimi was looking at the scene outside with a started expression.
Athan smiled wryly and sighed, "I mistakenly killed that Yenkal. I was trying out my new ability but didn't know that he was that weak, or maybe my power was too much."
Shaking his head, Athan looked at Dreevindo and asked, "how powerful was that Yenkal?"
Dreevindo was stunned speechless, while his expression slowly turned into that of neither crying nor laughing, "are you serious?"
"Ahem, I am serious," Athan nodded, "his soul was more powerful than any Chaos Supremes, but those Chaos Supremes are also now very powerful after their transformation and ascension. So, I don't know how powerful was that Yenkal."
Dreevindo spoke with a crying face, "he was actually even weaker than current Chaos Supremes, who are now at Raisor-stage. That dumb prince was at the Wrux-evolution stage."
"Geez, why was he so arrogant then?" Lily spoke while shaking her head.
"Well, because he was a prince of this Empire, and he was inside the main palace. Naturally, his sister, Binita is more powerful; she is at 1st-overhaul of Atomix-stage," Dreevindo said with a wry smile before he remembered something and spoke in a doubt, "wait...Athan can't possibly kill Yenkal that fast."
"Yenkal has protection from his father, and King Klenkai should have surely put soul protection talisman and other things in him that would ensure his safety," Dreevindo said as he doubtfully looked at Athan.
"Your current strength is not enough to break King Klenkai's powers and preparation and kill Yenkal that fast...if I am right, right? Right? Don't tell me you got even stronger in one day?" Dreevindo asked with a speechless expression.
"I didn't get stronger in one day," Athan shook his head with a smile, "however, my new technique directly, straight to the point, just attacks the soul, and it's not blockable by anything If the target used his soul sense during my Gaze of Void."
"The Gaze of Void would bypass anything, find the source of that soul sense, and attack the soul before devouring it and transferring its power to me," Athan said before he shook his head, "however, I didn't know that he was that weak. He instantly died."
*claps....*
"Wow!" Dreevindo spoke with a speechless expression and started clapping.
"Now, can you release me from this trap? I am in the same boat as you since I also disappeared from that place," Dreevindo said with a sigh as he looked at Lily, "I also can't do anything here; apparently, my powers are also stripped now."
Athan was surprised and turned to Lily, "you can do that too?"
"Yep," Lily grinned and nodded, "this Ark activated its full power when I transformed and arrived at Orchos Firmament. Hehe, I can do a lot of things with it. That's why I was not worried about anything. We can escape anytime and go anywhere; nobody can do anything to us."
Athan shook his head and said telepathically, 'for now, yes. But later, when we go to 7th Lerento, we will have to be careful. Mimi's parents also had this Ark, and they were more powerful than you and me, but they still met their end. Naturally, there are treasures on par with this Ark of Exordium.'
Lily nodded before she looked at Dreevindo, "what do we do about him?"
"He is with us," Athan said with a faint smile, "those Kings won't make any ruckus even if we leave because I showed them something out of their scope, and Dreevindo also filled them with stories, real stories. I had to do it so that we could leave here without any trouble and that no one would follow us to waste our time."
"Let's go now, to the so-called power sources at Dimension Rifts and Firmament Chams," Athan said.
"Right! I will create power source orbs for you with the Ark's power once we reach there so you can easily absorb or make use of them however you want," Lily said with a grin.
On the other hand, Huarin and Lily were standing side by side and looking at the interesting scene outside where everyone had gathered around Yenkal's body.
"Sister Lily, brother Athan, they are searching for you but are very shocked that they couldn't find you anywhere, hehehe," Mimi chuckled.
Lily waved her hand as she created a large 3d cloudly screen so that everyone could see the happening of side in a 360-degree view.
"There's no point in staying here. Let's leave," Lily nodded as she controlled the Ark's movement with her thought and left the palace.
"Dreevindo, tell us where do we need to go now," Athan said as he looked at Dreevindo.
...
After leaving the Empire, they arrived at another Empire's territory and left the Ark as they had to leave through a teleportation formation to arrive at the nearest Firmament Chasm.
