The Tale of the Void Emperor

The two brothers entered and instantly saw two beauties sitting in the pavilion.

'Hey bro, one of them is Lady Fu, and another one is the staff member here...but Lady Fu wouldn't come here alone...let's see who she brought here.'

'They should be at hot spring since it would be the first choice of everyone who comes here. Anyway, I someday want to taste Lady Fu, but with our current strength, we can't force ourselves on her.'

'Humph, we'll do it once we become powerful. But I heard had brother Lenek already tasted her?'

'Lady Fu denied at that time, but who knows?'

The two brothers started walking towards the right side of the pavilion and arrived at the hot spring covered in a bubble barrier that prevented them from seeing inside.

But it only prevented them from seeing from outside, not from inside.

They passed through the bubble to peek inside and instantly frowned.

'Damn, it's a bunch of men.'

'My mood got ruined. But since there are men here, then the women of the group should be in the other hot spring if there are any. Anyway, let's go check it out, hehe.'

...

Nobody was able to notice these two brothers, not Athan, not even Lady Fu, who was an Evagon-stage powerhouse.

Nobody noticed them except for one...

"Master, it seems that we have some uninvited guests here. They were just looking at you but left and are moving towards the other hot spring."

Primo was also bathing in the hot spring and said to Athan after noticing the two peeping toms.

Athan raised his eyebrows as he stood up and got out from the hot spring, "Lead the way, Primo."

...

"Master, you might not be able to see them, but they are right below me."

At this time, Athan had worn his void robe, and void mask, which also wholly erased his presence, and not a single ounce of aura exuded from his body.

In front of him, a few meters away, Primo was floating towards the hot spring.

Athan was impressed with the means of these peeping toms because he really couldn't sense or see them.

But it didn't matter, "Primo, don't let Netherly frost spread out."

"Got it, Master."

Before those peeping toms could put their heads inside the bubble to look, they felt intense threat, and their protective necklace activated, but...it didn't change or delay the outcome in the slightest.

*shuaaaa...*

Athan released Netherly frost while Primo prevented it from spreading out so Lady Fu or other girls wouldn't notice or feel the atmosphere turning cold.

Athan looked at the two frozen young men who had a zig-zag-shaped pointy tail behind their back and two yellow horns with brown patterns on their...shoulders.

After freezing them to death, Athan released abyssal darkness and removed every single trace of them being here.

"Alright, the clean-up is done," Athan said with a smile as he walked into the pavilion.

"Lady Fu, can you order some spirit enhancing food?"

"I'll order them. No need to trouble Lady Fu over something like that," Nacy said with a smile.

"Alright," Athan nodded before he went back to the hot spring.

"What happened, Emperor?"

Athan entered the hot spring as he soaked himself and said, "Nothing, I just went to tell Lady Fu to order some spirit enhancing food."

...

Athan and others relaxed in the hot spring for five hours before finally coming out.

After five hours of staying in the hot spring and getting mystical treatment from the fishes, everyone felt fully relaxed. Now all they wanted to do was to sleep to get the proper mind rest in this atmosphere, and have some sweet dreams.

So after entering the big pavilion, they ate some food before Sen, Shiromi, Telaery, Arcued, and Theo directly fell asleep on the comfy beds.

On the other hand, Athan, Tiana, Avelia, Linci, Lady Fu, and Nacy sat down on the comfortable couches with relaxed expressions after eating and drinking.

"Primo, I am feeling angry," Athan said with a small smile on his face.

Primo floated in front of Athan and asked with confusion, "Why, master?"

Athan kept the smile on his face as he fell into thought and shook his head, "Nevermind."

He then told the girls to relax while he got up and went to the empty ground a few hundred meters away from the pavilion.

Afterward, He took out Kuriazak fruits and started eating them to continue his progress in the soul catastrophe phase.

He had tons of fruits enough to make him reach the pinnacle of the Orderic Catastrophe. He also easily met the requirement to break through to Zen order since he had already comprehended more than one kind of zen order.

Normally, once people break through to the Soul order phase, they can start grasping and comprehending the Initial-level zen order methods, and it takes them a very long time to understand the initial-level zen order, unlike Athan, who had monstrous comprehension power.

Ordinary people need time to comprehend the first zen order even after they reach the peak of Orderic Catastrophe.

While geniuses can comprehend their first zen order before they reach the peak of the Orderic Catastrophe, which directly triggers their breakthrough to Zen order stage's first level, Zen order Elite.

On the other hand, Athan had already comprehended more than one zen order: First, he comprehended the second level of a cloud of chaos which contains zen order sets. Then he comprehended Miz-Lu Enchanted Kingdom's first level zen order, and then he comprehended Soul Miller Raiser's zen order.

So now, he just needed to reach the peak of the Orderic Catastrophe by surviving the soul order catastrophes, and he will trigger the breakthrough directly.

Soon, Lady Fu and others noticed the dark aurora chaotic cloud above Athan.

"This atmosphere is excellent to comprehend zen order, so you can also do that. People at your level usually do that after enjoying the hot spring." Nacy said with a smile.

Tiana and others nodded as they were actually planning to train since arriving here and noticing this atmosphere.

"It's like we are sitting under Efyeed," Avelia said with a smile.

Hearing that, Nacy said in doubt, "Efyeed?"

"It's a Chaos enlightenment tree...."

...

While Athan, Tiana, and others started training in this relaxing and peaceful atmosphere, Lenek received a call from his Lord Father.

Lenek looked at his other buddied and signaled them to stay silent before he accepted the call from the contact card, "What's the matter, Lord father?"

Lord Father--"Where are Nelker and Zelker?"

Hearing the voice, Lenek cursed, 'A deadtone voice...It looks like Lord father is angry. But why?'

Lenek knew what to say since he knew that his brothers had sneaked out from their home palace and arrived here to enjoy, "Lord father, I don't know where they are. Maybe they are at Ginny's place?"

Internally, he thought, 'Playtime is over, boys. Now, I should send them to Ginny's place as soon as possible.'

He signaled a servant and sent him a telepathic message, "Call my brothers through their contact card and tell them to meet me right this instant."

Lord Father--"I already checked there; they are not at Ginny's place. Where-Are-They?"

Lenek trembled at the exceptional cold voice, 'What the fuck happened? Why is Lord father so angry?'

"T-this...Lord father, they are here."

"HERE, WHERE? WHERE ARE YOU?!"

"I-I am at Heaven's Tranquility."

Lenek then heard a sound of a deep breath before he heard a heavy and cold voice of his Lord father laced with anger, "Nelker and Zelker...are dead. Do you hear me? They-are-DEAD!"
