The Tale of the Void Emperor

"Master Melker, I have hired three dark daggers. They have already entered Heaven's Tranquility and will execute their plan tomorrow," Judas said as he arrived in front of Melker in the palace.

Melker nodded before remembering something as his eyes turned cold, "does he have any family members? If he has, then kill one or two of them so he can also feel the pain of losing his loved ones like me."

Judas nodded and said, "from the information we got, he arrived at Heaven's Tranquility alone, but he has some companions, and they arrived there earlier than him. He has some connections with Lady Fu as well. Should I hire another dark dagger to kill one or two of his companions?"

Melker frowned and said, "doesn't he have any blood-related family members?"

"I'm afraid not," Judas shook his head.

"Forget it then. Anyway, make sure that nobody can track our activities and make the connection of those dark daggers with us," Melker spoke sternly.

"Rest assured, master Melker. I have used a pawn to hire those dark daggers from that organization. We have no connection with the assassination of Athan Void," Judas said with confidence.

However, those two didn't know that Elk had already ratted them out.

...

"Why did you that?! Are you out of your mind?" Kronel stood up from his seat and angrily shouted as he looked at Elk.

Elk was indifferently standing in front of Kronel and was not affected by his outburst as she spoke, "Kronel, your father sent me here to look after you and to make sure that you don't make any rash decisions."

"Bah! What can happen to me in this place?" Kronel scoffed as he sat back down and looked coldly at Elk, "why did you do that? give me a solid reason."

Elk's right eye twitched before she spoke, "to prevent the destruction of Heaven's Tranquility and...your death."

"Are you fucking playing with me?!" Kronel couldn't control his temper as he cursed. He was at the peak of Evagon-realm, which was the highest possible strength allowed here. Moreover, he was on his own turf, so how could he believe that there were chances of him dying here?

Suppose he was really sieged by all peak stage Evagon-realm powerhouses of the Midgard continent, which was impossible in the first place. Still, in that case, he could escape since the ascension to upper-chaosverse was right on top of him and connected to his Heaven's Tranquility.

Even though he couldn't activate defensive props of chaos king-grade here due to restrictions, he had no fear no one could use power equivalent to chaos king level.

"What kind of power here can kill me? NONE! but you still went there and spilled the beans."

Elk looked at Kronel and sneered, "need I remind you about that girl from Crow clan? if you went there and attacked her, you would die."

"That...that's a different matter!" Kronel was stunned before he snorted," she can't actively use her power, and it only comes out if someone attacks her or get close to her."

"But that's the proof that there are powers here that can kill you." Elk said plainly before she narrowed her eyes, "that Athan is giving me bad vibes from the start, and that's why I didn't press the matter of Melker's sons' death previously. You know what? Even after I told him about the attack on him, he took it extremely easy and is just waiting for attackers.

"Because...," Elk paused as her expression turned grave, "he has the power to kill Evagon-grade realm powerhouses despite being at zen order elite. I have felt his soul power myself, and it's even more powerful than mine."

Hearing that, Kronel was stunned before he started laughing, "Elk, Elk, Elk...you don't need to make such excuses after spilling the beans. You k-"

"Why don't you wait and observe? Ask Melker about how he will attack Athan and wait for it," Elk interrupted Kronel as she dropped this before turning around and started walking. Before leaving the hall, she said, "see for yourself how powerful that Athan is. After that, you can thank me."

Kronel frowned as he cooled down and sighed. Afterward, he fell into thought, 'It's true that Elk wouldn't do anything that would cause loss to me and Heaven's Tranquility. However,...'

After thinking for a moment, he contacted Melker and asked him about the detail of the attack.

After talking with Melker, he stood up and left the hall while muttering, "three dark daggers. Two at mid-grade Evagon-realm and one at the peak of Evagon-realm."

A grin formed on his face as he thought, 'Let's see if you are right or wrong, Elk.'

...

Half a day has passed since Athan arrived at the pub with Zangeer and his friends.

Athan had already informed Tiana, Lady Fu, and others to go to a facility where everyone could stay close to each other. That way, Lady Fu and Zorgia can provide better and quick protection for them.

"Hahaha, Athan. Are you already drunk? Hello? can you see me?" Zangeer waved his hands in front of Athan, who was dead drunk and lost in his thoughts.

Sahara arrived and sat on the stool beside Zangeer before ordering a drink.

"Hmm? you gave that wine to Athan?" Sahara asked with doubt as she looked at Zangeer and how he was calling out to drunk Athan, who was not responding.

Hearing her question, Zangeer nodded with a grin, "I am fairly sure he can resist the effects, but he is not doing that and is deliberately allowing himself to get affected."

"Eh...really? That wine is really strong as it can even affect Evagon-realm powerhouses, but Athan is still a Zen order elite. I don't think he can resist the effects."

At this time, Feigan walked towards them, and it seemed that he was drunk as well.

"Yo, Zangeer. Eh? this new friend is already dead drunk, it seems, hahaha," Feigan laughed loudly.

"Humph, you are no different," Sahara said with a snort.
