The Tale of the Void Emperor

Fifteen days passed since the test started, but Athan didn't encounter any of his team members.

In the past fifteen days, He encountered many monsters that directly attacked him. Naturally, He defeated all of them with ease and got points.

He was still at the no.1 on the leaderboard with 6870 points.

The no.2 had 2890 points.

Athan didn't know, but no.7 in the leaderboard is Theo with 2180 points.

Shiromi is at No. 34, while there are no names of Tealery and Aruced in the Top 50.

...

At this time, Athan was flying in a random direction where he suddenly felt energy waves and sped up.

" Tealery? "

Athan muttered as he dashed forward to help Tealery, who was sieged by two monsters.

Athan pointed his palm at one monster that looked like a grotesque, giant worm and muttered, " Point Zero Bombardment- Twenty Points. "

At this moment, Twenty small points appeared around The worm, and before it could go underground, The twenty points burst out terrifying condense explosions that blasted the giant worm into pieces.

" Athan!..." Tealery looked at Athan with an excited expression because she finally met one of the team members, and It was Athan nonetheless, ' It's my chance. '

Tealery looked at the other crocodile-like monster that had two large and powerful-looking tails. This beast was going to attack her, but Tealery turned resolute as she circulated energy inside her hurridly.

But the monster was fast, so she had to dodge, which she did barely before releasing her one of the most powerful techniques, " Rose of Destruction. "

Dark orange energy burst out around her body before she pushed both of her hands forward and executed her technique.

*Shreeeeeeeeeeee....*

The energy took the form of a giant Rose that first released vines that wrapped around the monster.

After that, the Rose struck the monster with the support of vines. The crocodile beast struggled but couldn't get out as Tealery was supporting this technique even after executing it by providing more energy.

Athan watched quietly and didn't help because if he did, then points will be shared based on contribution, ' That monster...From its aura, It's a Medium stage 4-star beast. But that technique of Tealery is interesting...'

The giant Rose started shrinking after it struck the monster before strange patterns appeared all over the monster's body.

*Grarrrrrrrrrrrr....*

The two-tailed crocodile howled in pain, but its red eyes were focused at Tealery as it still tried to attack her.

But...

*BOOOOOOOOOM...*

The final part of Tealery's technique succeeded as the crocodile was blasted into pieces.

Tealery looked at Athan with a smile and an expression that askes, ' Hehe...That was good, right? '

Athan grinned and nodded, " That was good. "

Tealery was startled, ' Did he read my mind? Of course, that's impossible. '

Naturally, It was impossible. Athan just said it because the way she killed the monster was...good.

" How many points you got? " Athan asked after descending.

Tealery's happy smile turned into a sad one as she showed the back of her card to Athan, " I had 1290 points before killing that monster. But I got 200 after killing it so now I have 1490 points. "

After that, She sighed while shaking her head, " I also had to use one quota of Immortal Aegis Runic Ward to save myself. With the way things are...It's going to be super hard to get into the top 50. "

Athan frowned hearing that and spoke, " That won't do. Hmm....Let's work hard and gather more points. "

" Oh yeah. How many points did you get? "

" 6980. That monster just gave me 100 points. " Athan spoke while displaying his card to Tealery.

Tealery was shell-shocked at the difference between their points, " What the...This difference is just too big. What did you do to get so many points? "

" Not much. I just destroyed a stronghold, not with my own power but by using the power of the stronghold itself. Oh...And take this. "

Athan suddenly remembered about the weapons and took out the bow and a rough-looking slate to her.

" I was going to give you this weapon earlier but forgot about it. It's currently in a sealed state, but it will unseal once you infuse your order force in it. "

Tealery excitedly looked at the bow and infuse order force into it as a powerful aura revealed itself on the bow.

" High-grade 4-star Weapon! " Tealery couldn't help but squeak after seeing the true grade of the weapon and looked at Athan with shining eyes.

" Thank you so much, Athan. I had an early-stage 4-star weapon that my father gave me, but it just broke two days ago as a high-stage 4-star chaos beast attacked me. I had to sacrifice my weapon and a quota of Immortal Aegis Runic Ward to escape. " Tealery spoke with gratefulness and really wanted to take this chance to hug Athan.

' Nevermind. What if he doesn't like it and shove me away? If that happened, Things would become awkward between us. '

Athan nodded with a faint smile, " It's okay. Now check out that slate too. It's a Bow-type Weapon order technique. "

" What! " Tealery was shocked and hurriedly looked at the slate before using her soul sense in the slate.

" It's really a Bow-type Weapon order technique!! " Tealery felt shocked as to how Athan casually gave a high-grade 4-star weapon and a weapon order technique too.

They are damn expensive!! Especially the weapon order technique.

Tealery became emotional as she looked at Athan, ' Could it be that he did this because he likes me? But...His eyes and demeanor don't play such things. '

Seeing Tealery like that, Athan wryly smiled, " It's ok. You don't need to be too grateful about this. I also gave Arcued and Shiromi the same. Since you are in my team, then there's only benefit if you all get stronger. "

Tealery was stunned hearing that as she internally scolded herself, ' You stupid Tealery...phew. Thankfully I didn't take any actions due to my emotion, or it would be such an awkward thing. '

She shook her head and changed the subject, " Let's go to a stronghold. I encountered one earlier, and some people were planning to attack it. They also invited me, but I rejected them since I wanted to find our team first, and It didn't look like I would get many points if I joined them since my strength was way lower than theirs. "

Athan became interesting and grinned, " And here I was trying to find a stronghold. My luck seems bad cause I didn't find one since the one I found on the first day. "

" Then let's go there? "

" Of course. Hahaha. "

Athan and Tealery moved towards a direction in this region filled with ice storms, snow trees, ice mountains, etc.

On the way, they encountered a person but seeing Athan and Tealery two people, He made a beeline and ran away.

While running, He thought, ' That girl didn't have much catastrophic aura on her which means that she didn't complete her first phase of catastrophe. But I couldn't check that guy. Hmm...He must have a powerful masking technique but why would he keep it active while moving? Wouldn't it consume more energy? Strange guy. '

But before they could reach the stronghold, They saw a fight ahead after following the energy waves.
