Chapter 397: Using Black Card.

" Athan. Today is the time to leave, but...Arcued, he...."

" You two go outside and wait. I'll come with Arcued after knowing his situation. "

Sen and Tealery nodded as they flew towards the location of the exit portal. Both of them had reached Orderic Catastrophe shortly after Athan broke through.

On the other hand, Arcued was non-stop training and had finally saturated his peak-level essence core and reached the very peak of the tier-3 order base.

Unfortunately, His soul strength was lacking, so he started practicing in it.

Athan walked towards Arcued, who had his weary eyes closed while sitting in a crossed-legged position.

He extended his soul sense towards Arcued and checked his condition before smiling wryly, ' Not bad. But...He has reached his limit and is already overworking. '

Arcued's condition was terrible right now. His mind has exhausted, and a massive amount of fatigue has accumulated because of non-stop training.

But even so, He was still training in a soul strengthening method to make his soul reach the required rank so that he can start to attempt his breakthrough to the Orderic Catastrophe stage.

Athan observed Arcued for a few minutes before taking out Ayurin's contact card, " Master Ayurin, do you have any pill that removes all fatigue from a person and energizes them such that they can continue to train? "

" I have two such pills on me currently. But they are special 4-star pills whose prices are comparable to 5-star pills. After all, our minds and soul are delicate but also complicated places. Pills that can affect and benefit them are naturally expensive as their ingredients are hard to find and even harder to concoct. "

Athan didn't care about price and such things because it didn't matter to him, " I want to borrow one pill. "

" Borrow? That's not the word you use when asking for a pill. By saying borrow, do you mean that you will return me the exact pill in the future? "

Athan smiled as he heard Ayurin's way of asking things, " Indeed. I will simply borrow this pill and return it to you after some time. As for its purpose, I can't tell you about it. "

" Interesting. Alright. Sen is coming there with the pill. But judging from the current situation, you will not use your black card today, right? "

" Correct. As for the details, I will tell Sen about it, and she will relay it to you. "

" Fine. Then we'll be waiting for you at the testing grounds. Don't forget to keep track of time and use the black card. Only three months are left before the deadline. "

---

" Here's the pill, Athan. " Sen handed a small pill bottle to Athan with a single starry pill with white patterns inside it.

Athan took it with a faint smile before saying, " I will return this exact pill later. Also, You and Tealery can use your black card to go there first. Tell Master Ayurin and others to be on their way since, unlike us, They will have to travel to reach the testing grounds set by Chaos Monolith Hills. "

Sen slowly nodded as her face showed an expression of hesitation. Glancing at Arcued, She spoke slowly, " Are you going to give this pill to Arcued? Only three months are left, so...Umm, you know that he will likely not reach the orderic catastrophe before the deadline. "

" Hahaha. You are right.? I am just going to try something which requires little to no effort on my part. But If It succeeds, then Arcued can breakthrough. Anyway, I did boast in front of him, so...If there is a way to help him, then what's the harm in trying? "

After saying that, Athan took out the pill from the bottle and sent it inside his void region.

Seeing this, Sen was shocked, " Do you have a 4-star storage ring? "

Athan was confused at first but then remembered that people at Tier-3 order base couldn't store things like 4-star pills or weapons inside their chaos region.

Proceeding to smile, He spoke, " I don't have a 4-star storage ring, but I can store things inside my internal body space due to my unique physique. "

" Oh...That's awesome! Anyway, since you have decided what to do, then I'll simply wish you good luck. Hehe, Don't miss the chance and use the black card before the deadline. " Sen was surprised at first, but she remembered about Athan's physique and how it just recently upgraded.

After wishing good luck, She flew towards the exit and left the chaos phenom dimension.

After Sen left, Athan looked at Arcued with a thoughtful expression, ' Now let's see if the plan I thought works or not. '

...

Outside...

" So Athan wants to try something to help Arcued breakthrough? It's not impossible to assist someone to increase their chances and speed of breakthrough to the Orderic Catastrophe stage. But...someone at Athan's level of strength can't possibly do it. "

Ayurin spoke after hearing everything from Sen, But after a moment, she shook her head with a wry smile, " Anyway, I also can't be sure when it comes to Athan. The powers he commands are unique, so maybe...he might have a way to help Arcued. "

Tealery took out the black card with an impatient expression and said, " Whether he succeeds or not, we will know it before three months are up. For now, Let's use the black card and meet up with Shiromi. "

Tealery's uncle and aunt looked at her with a helpless smile and also wished her good luck. Her uncle spoke with a kind smile, " Your father and mother are already at the site. We won't be going there since we will manage the clan in the absence of your father. We hope that you can get into Chaos Monolith Hills and make our clan proud. "

Tealery smiled sweetly and nodded, " Thank you. I'll definitely pass whatever tests they have arranged for us and enter the Chaos Monolith Hills. "

Tealery infused her order force in the black card before It released some strange energy. This peculiar black energy with a silver hue started to envelop Tealery. Once she was completely enveloped, She disappeared without any sound.

Ayurin also wished good luck to Sen and told her that they would watch them take tests if Chaos Monolith Hills allowed it.

" Hehe, Master...I'll also definitely pass and enter the Chaos Monolith Hills. After all, I am your most talented student. "

Sen smiled and hugged Ayurin before taking out the black card.

" See you there. Ahh...By the way, Master. Can you remind Athan with your super distance contact card to use his black card two days before the deadline? Umm...It would really suck if he got absorb in doing his own thing and missed the deadline. "

Ayurin chuckled and patted Sen's head, " Oh, sweetie. Go ahead with ease. I will remind Athan to use his black card. "

Sen nodded with a sweet smile as she also infused order force into the black card and disappeared after the peculiar energy enveloped her.

Meanwhile, The elder who came here as Arcued's guardian had a worrisome expression on his face. Upon thinking about Arcued, He couldn't help but sigh.

' Sigh...Arcued. Everyone in the clan hopes that you pass the tests and join Chaos Monolith Hills. But...you are at the juncture where you might not even qualify to take the entrance exam, let alone pass it. '

Shaking his head, He only hopes that Arcued can break through to Orderic Catastrophe in three months and at least take the tests because, according to him, That would also be an impressive thing.

...

Two months and twenty-seven days later...

Arcued and Athan stood side by side with black cards in their hands.

" Let's go. "

" Yes, Emperor. "

" As I said, Don't call me that. "

" Yes, Emperor. "

" Sigh. Nevermind. Just use the black card. "

Arcued's gaze was on borderline worshipping when he looked at Athan. After all, Athan made something impossible into possible for him.
