The Tale of the Void Emperor

"Athan should be coming to me since Staercia removed her isolation from me," Avelia spoke with excitement, "hurry up, Athan."

"Oh yea, I can't hold him back, so I better comprehend profound techniques from daggers. There are two profound techniques in both daggers, so there is four total. Hmmm, I'll master Hellion Spatial Rend first."

"Hi, Avelia, hehe. Training all day as usual, huh?"

Suddenly, a beautiful girl appeared, her name was Lulu. She was the daughter of the Starling River organization's leader.

Avelia grinned and nodded as she spoke excitedly, "Athan is coming here. He will come here any time, and then we will go on to pick up others, so I better get strong to not hold him back."

"Oh...," Luly twirled her ponytail before speaking with a pout, "why don't you forget about that boyfriend of yours you haven't met for years? My brother is head over heels for you, and our background is solid as well. You will be happy with us."

"Hahaha," Avelia laughed and shook her head, "keep your brother away when my Athan comes here, or he will suffer a fate worse than death. No one can replace my Athan, and my background is more powerful than yours."

Lulu was startled as she had never seen Avelia this aggressive before and chuckled, "oh, Avelia, what is your background? Nobody, not even my father, knows about it."

"Hehe, my background is...," Avelia said with a beaming smile, "my Athan."

"Huh?" Lulu was stunned, "how strong is he? Is he at Fear-plane?"

"I don't know," Avelia shook her head but still smiled, "however, as my husband, he is my background, and I will do everything to support him."

"Anyway, enough training Avelia. Let's go out and roam the market to see if there's anything interesting. How about choosing a gift for Athan?"

"Gift for Athan?" Avelia was startled before her eyes sparkled, "I have never given any gift to him. Alright, I will gift him something for finding me, hehe."

A few hundred meters behind a tree, a man looking in his late twenties was standing with a clenched fist, 'damn Athan. Who the hell are you?'

He then merged into the tree and disappeared as the tree was actually a mirage portal door.

Avelia and Lulu also went inside another tree and disappeared.

A majestic one-and-a-half-mile-square-meter palace was floating on top of the Starling Ocean region in Okulus Zone; the palace was none other than the Starling River Organization.

The interesting thing was that approximately one hundred starling river flows went in different directions from all around the palace.

Those sparkling rivers led to different places.

At 44th River station in the palace, Lulu and Avelia stood in front of a mini boat with two seats.

Both of them entered inside the boat before the boat entered into the mystical starling sparky river flow.

*Swoooosh...*

The boat literally turned starry as it traveled in the 44th river flow that led to a different region.

...

On the other hand, inside the palace...

A man in his forties was in a hall with six other people, and suddenly, a man with a fish head and fish scales on his body arrived in the hall and spoke, "Master Starzin, Young miss Lulu, and Avelia have left for Bokant Market region. I have sent five protectors behind them. Should I send more?"

"Send five more," Starzin spoke as he caressed his dark brown beard, "Grand Meet is four years later, and I don't want anyone to use my children as some sort of bargaining chip against me."

"Leader Starzin, such a Grand Meet has happened for the first time. I wonder what the Nihility council is thinking about. Will the five Rulers really be able to control 50% of the territory of the entire Okulus Zone?"

"Since they said so, then we can only believe it," Starzin said as he nodded, "what did Dark Sword Azazil and Star Charmer Jenifer say regarding my proposal?"

"No answers yet; they are still hesitating whether to support you and join us or not."

"Hmmm, give them three days deadline. If they don't answer in three days, I will choose some other two," Starzin said as he waved his hand, "go and give them the deadline right away. Afterward, you six should continue training and refine your craft and techniques."

The six people in the hall stood up and left after bowing.

Right after they left, Starzin saw his son entering the hall and raised his eyebrows, "what's the matter, Starfinn? You look depressed."

Starfinn sighed before he adopted a stubborn expression, "father, I want Avelia. I have fallen for her."

Starzin frowned before he sighed, "but she doesn't feel the same, right?"

Starfinn clenched his fist and nodded, "yes, but..."

*Thak!*

Starzin smacked his fist on the table and spoke, "what but? You can't force someone to love you. It will only ruin both people's life."

"B-but...I want her." Starfinn said with a stubborn expression.

Starzin shook his head, "It has only been four years, but I didn't expect you would become like this. You never said you love her but only said you want her."

Starzin looked into his son's eyes and spoke, "you don't know the background of that girl, and I also don't know but...I know the person who brought that girl here."

"That person only told me one thing," Starzin said as he narrowed his eyes, "She said [You can do anything with that girl, but you will have no future if she suffers here as a fate worse than death will be awaiting you]."

"Do you understand?" Starzin spoke in a stern voice.

Starfinn clenched his teeth and fist, but he nodded nonetheless, "fine."

Afterward, he left the hall.

'Scaring me like that...father, you really think you can fool me?' Starfinn thought.

...

"Avelia!" 

*Crack....!*

In the backyard, the cocoon of Athan cracked as he came out with unstable eyes.

"Avelia...I can sense her general location!"

At this moment, Lily, Mimi, Huarin, and Dreevindo entered the background and saw Athan trembling.

"What happened, brother Athan?" Mimi asked with confusion.

"Av-Avelia...I can sense her."
