The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 463: Shock! Joy!

Chapter 463: Shock! Joy!

Days passed as Athan continued to train in the next version of the cloud of chaos by bursting clouds and comprehending and grasping the order patterns.

Eighteen days passed, and he cleared 79 clouds and comprehended the revealed order patterns.

As his comprehension of those particular order patterns increased, he also started to feel the space of this lower Chaosverse. Previously He could not feel it. It was like how he was on earth as a normal person. But after transmigration and arriving at Higher-axiom universe, and comprehending space element, he could feel space and even use it to his benefit.

Just like that, Even though he could not use the space of this lower-Chaosverse or this midguard continent to his benefit or support, He could now at least feel and sense it.

" Alright, Athan. We have arrived at the destination. "

Athan opened his eyes and was a bit surprised by a giant white palace in the sky surrounded by a deadly chaotic river that spewed out lightning in myriad forms.

" How will we go there? can your boat survive that? " Asked Athan as he looked at the White Feathered Palace.

Hathor smiled weakly and shook his head, " Of course not. There will be a ride from inside for you. "

He took out a contact card and spoke something before putting it away.

Shortly after that, Athan saw a pegasus flying towards them as it cut through the chaotic river.

" Alright. My work here is done, and so I will be going back. Good luck, Athan. " Hathor spoke with a wide grin, showing his white teeth.

Athan nodded with a faint smile as he jumped up from the boat and flew on top of the Pegasus.

" Hey, hey, hooman. Stop. You ain't riding me, alright? "

Athan was startled to hear an angelic voice from the Pegasus. He stopped beside it and didn't mount himself on the beast after hearing it.

He just floated using his chaos body-lightning dust power and looked at the Pegasus, who nodded at him and spoke, " You just have to follow me. I don't let just anybody ride on me, especially males. "

After saying that, The Pegasus used some kind of power as a white barrier formed around Athan.

" Let's go. This barrier will protect you from that chaotic river. " Said Pegasus as it flew towards the White Feathered Palace.

Athan grinned and caught up to it before asking, " So what type of people are allowed to ride on you? "

" Hehe, Two types: First, The people that my Master acknowledges. Second, The people that spark interest in me. " The Pegasus spoke with a chuckle.

" I see. Well, you know. You look exactly like the beast that I used to read about in my old world—a horse with wings, Pegasus. It's just you are more majestic and beautiful with your exquisite fur. Hehe, I've always wanted to ride on a Pegasus. " Said Athan with a smile.

The Pegasus paused and spoke, " First, My name is Ferinia. Second, Y-"

Athan interrupted her with a laugh and spoke, " Second, How about I spark interest in you? "

Ferinia looked at Athan with interest as its blue and gold eyes sparkled with interest, " Hehe, go ahead. "

Athan pointed at the chaotic river and asked, " Do you think I can pass that chaotic river without your help? "

" Neighh....hahaha, You are joking, boy. That's something that even Zen order grandmaster can't pass through, let alone you, who is in orderic catastrophe. " Ferinia laughed and felt that Athan was joking.

" I am not joking. If I can pass that, then you will do one thing for me. Don't worry; I won't ask something unreasonable and stupid. " Athan spoke with a grin.

Ferinia looked at Athan deeply for two seconds even though she could not see his face due to the mask, " Are you sure? Not that I care, but you could die there. "

Athan nodded and said, " I am deadly sure. If I can pass that, then you will do one thing for me, and If I lose, I will do anything you say. "

" Neighh...Alright. I don't think you can pass that, so let's see...How about you remove that mask from your face if you lose? Normally, losing means death in that situation, but I will save you at that time hehehe. "

Athan agreed directly and covered himself in abyssal darkness before shooting towards the chaotic river.

*Booom...*

The white barrier of Ferinia also broke as her eyes and jaws opened wide.

Athan grinned with a gleam in his eyes as he flew into the chaotic river.

' Woah...Shit. ' Athan was startled by the draining speed of his abyssal darkness and hurriedly took out his cloud of chaos instead of flying with his chaos body-lightning dust body power.

With the cloud of chaos, He increased his speed as he passed through the river in four seconds and came out from the other side unscathed.

" Nyaaaa...Master, You scared me for a second there. " Primo appeared on Athan's shoulder with worry-filled eyes.

" Hehehe...Well, that was exciting. " Athan laughed. He checked and saw that only 4% of abyssal darkness remained inside his black orb. If he was one second late, then...

' Anyway, I achieved my goal. Let's hope this Pegasus keeps its promise because I will need it soon. ' Thought Athan with a smile behind his mask.

...

Ferinia came out from the river too and looked at Athan with a dumbfounded expression.

" What the hell? Boy, y-y-you, how did you do that? Are you really in the Orderic Catastrophe stage? " Ferinia stuttered.

Athan nodded with a grin, " Of course. But I am a bit different, that's all. Anyway, you will keep your promise, right? "

" Humph, I, the Great Heavenly Mare, will definitely keep my promise. Hehe, you have certainly intrigued me. Get on my back even though the Palace is just 2 kilometers away. Come on. " Ferinia spoke with a chuckle.

Athan floated towards it and sat down its back.

*neigh...*

In the White feathered Palace's main hall, There was a throne, and a beautiful woman was sitting there while watching Athan and Ferinia through a cloud screen.

Seeing what happened, An arced formed on her beautiful face as she smiled, " Interesting young man. "

" What happened, Master Lornell? "

Lornell looking at the girl who was sitting in front of her. She had black and red hair and looked very beautiful.

" Well, Just like you, someone else is coming here to learn Runic Arts for a year by recommendation. "

" Oh? Which organization? "

" Chaos Monolith HIlls. "

...

Athan entered the Palace's main hall with Ferinia and saw a beautiful woman with long dreamy blue hair sitting on the throne and also saw the back of another girl.

He felt strangely familiar seeing that back and felt an unknown excitement, ' Who...is she? Wait.. '

" Master, I brought him here. You must have already seen him. Hehehe, Pretty interesting, boy. "

At this moment, The girl turned around to see Athan with a curious gaze.

*thump...*

*thump...*

Athan's heartbeat increased, and he froze on his steps.

Since the day he decided to meet them instead of waiting, His longing was increasing...it was increasing day by day.

And now...He saw her, ' Tiana...'

He dashed forward and seeing that Lornell frowned slightly but eased up after seeing that Athan paused two meters away from Tiana and didn't do anything inappropriate, ' Not that Tiana would let him do that. '

The mask on Athan's face slowly disappeared as everyone could a face...a face that looked so...happy.

That face displayed genuine happiness.

Athan composed himself in an instant and held back his instinct to just hug her and kiss her.

" Hello, Tiana. We meet again. " Athan spoke with a calm and serene voice with a gentle smile on his face.

If Shiromi, Sen, or any people Athan met after coming to Lower Chaosverse saw him at this time, They would drop their jaw in shock.

After all, He had never displayed such a face and demeanor before.

Tiana looked at Athan and remembered him instantly.

" You...How did you get here? Wow...What a coincidence. "? Tiana gasped in shock after remembering that she met him right before she, Avelia, and others left the universe.

" Who is he, Tiana? " Lornell. asked with an amusing smile on her face.

" Master Lornell. Chuckle...He and I are both ascenders and come from the same universe. " Tiana answered with a chuckle as she still couldn't believe such a coincidence.

" Oh? " Lornell raised her eyebrows in surprise before smiling, " If you left at different times and met like this. Then it's indeed a good coincidence. You two can talk for some time while I complete some unfinished work. "

After saying that, A portal appeared in front of her and she went inside.

" So how are you, Tiana? What about others...Your friends I saw the previous time. " Athan asked with a smile.

" They? haha, They are fine. Anyway, Let's sit down and talk. " Tiana spoke with a grin.

Both of them sat down on the couch.

" So? How did your adventure go after arriving in the lower-Chaosverse? " Tiana asked with a smile, ' Strange...Why am I feeling happy suddenly? Just by talking with him? '

" You first. Tell me how did your and others' adventure go once you arrived in the lower-Chaosverse. " Athan looked at her, into her eyes, and spoke with a smile.
