The Tale of the Void Emperor-Novel

Chapter 412: Castle Event, Nightmare Continues-1

It's been a month since the test started...which means that the castle event will start today.

Currently, Tealery and Arcued were recovering their energy and healing their injuries.

Arcued left leg was gone, so Athan was scanning his structure with his soul sense so that he can regrow Arcued's leg.

Tealery was also injured but internally as she was recovery with her eyes closed and a painful frown on her face.

" You two did well in the stronghold fight. "

Hearing the praise from Athan, Tealery and Arcued became happy for different reasons.

But they had a lingering question in their mind, ' Why did Athan kill everyone he encountered? He also slaughtered everyone in the stronghold fight that we just fought. '

They saw Athan not even letting even one person escape as he killed every single one of them despite suffering major injuries in the process that made their current injuries look like a joke.

At this moment, Athan finished scanning Arcued's structure and released Voidpulse to regrow his left leg.

" We'll continue moving after you two recover your injuries. " Athan stated as he looked at the new batch of storage rings and took out the chaos stones within them as his eyes gleamed black and white, ' I need to speed up to complete the plan. Let's hope this castle event provides that opportunity.? '

...

Athan's actions have caused many to feel cold in their heart and sweat in their body.

Especially those who were outside.

" Why is that young man killing everyone? Sigh...Now I am worried about my daughter. He doesn't spare any man or woman and kills everyone that he sees. "

Some of them had red eyes as they looked at Athan on the cloudy screen. They saw him killing their sons, daughters, and relatives.

" Why is there a need to kill others? At first, I felt that those envoys made enough preparations to decrease casualties by introducing that immortal something runic ward. But...That fucking devil is too powerful. "

" Indeed. He is just unkillable with his unique physique or something. He also recovers even if his limbs are cut off. Which power cultivated him, and where is he from? "

At this moment, Several people were trying to unearth the origins of Athan.

Ayurin, Drizzly, Yone, and all other members of Hidden Dragon Troupe were watching with speechlessness. Even their first leader was here since this was an important occasion, and he had a bewildered look on his face since the moment when he saw Athan fighting in the second stronghold.

He wore a shirt that was open near his chest, had a red hat on top of his head, and also long red hair that reached his shoulder. A sword was hanging on his waist, and there was a name on the handle, Zank's Torment.

He looked at Yone as his eyes twitched slightly and asked, " Was he that of a monster? He seems more than what you reported to me the previous time. "

Yone wryly smiled as he looked around before whispering, " Should we get the hell out of here? Some of them are trying to find out about him and his origins. If they know that he is from our organization, then we'll face some serious troubles. "

Zank, The first leader of Youhan Tree, snorted before looking at Athan with an impressed expression on his face, " What are you smoking? Are we afraid of them? What's more, Athan is not known and a completely dark horse, unlike those sons and daughters of big clans. I doubt they can trace his origins to us. "

" You two are underestimating the current Athan. " Ayurin interjected with a calm smile.

Everyone looked at Ayurin as she continued, " His actions are based on a certain plan, and I don't think that he hasn't thought about the consequences of his actions. Let's just watch. I'm sure he will do something about it. "

...

The envoys were also discussing Athan, but they were way more laid back than the outside people. After all, The lives of those people didn't matter to them. They are just here to conduct a test and bring a batch of young ones to the Chaos Monolith Hills.

" Say, Rukia. Do you know why that Athan is killing everyone he sees? Is he that thirsty for blood? If he is unstable, then I'll have to inspect him thoroughly. " The cold-beauty Rezy spoke as she looked at Athan.

Rukia was sitting on the comfortable sofa beside her while eating some fruits.

A soft giggle left her mouth before she stated, " Stop joking, Rezy. "

After saying that, She continued to eat while looking at the giant cloudy screen and observing all participants.

Rezy's serious expression and cold face twitched slightly hearing what Rukia said.

' I am not joking, though. '

Her gaze went to Athan in the cloudy screen as she narrowed her eyes. She seems to be thinking something regarding Athan.

One of the envoys stood up and spoke, " I'll activate the castles since it's time. "

Rukia nodded, " Yep. Do it fast. Oh, and summon one near Athan. I want to see if he repeats his actions again or not. "

Although speechless, The envoy nodded, " Alright. You and your whims, Rukia. "

...

At this moment, Tealer and Arcued were still recovering, but suddenly, colorful clouds gathered in the sky just tens of meters away from them.

This commotion was big due to the colorful clouds and their rumbling sound as Arcued, Tealery, and Athan looked at them.

" Could it be...Is it the castle event? " Tealery spoke with doubt as she looked at the clouds.

Athan grinned as he looked at the commotion caused by the clouds, ' Now this is good. It looks like a lot of people will gather here due to the commotion. '

Arcued saw Athan's eyes and shivered, ' Will he once again? '

They saw colorful sparks showering from the colorful clouds as a castle materialized on the ground.

" It will take some time for people to gather. We'll go after thirty minutes. How much time do you two need to heal yourselves? "

Hearing the question of Athan, Tealery and Arcued speculated that they would need at most 20 minutes to recover.
