The Tale of the Void Emperor-Novel

Chapter 191: Gerian Lemeanor

" Woooah...." Athan looked in awe at the surroundings. The scenery around him was so mystical and unique.

" Is this metal? " Athan walked towards a nearby tree that clearly looked like it was made from colorful metal.

He cut a branch from the tree, and it clearly felt like a shining brown metal, but after a second, it turned into sparks and disappeared.

" so it looks like metal, but it's not metal. " Athan looked at the surrounding that was pretty much the same as the tree.

Rocks, plants, flowers, etc. Everything was metallic and shining.

*Roarr....*

Athan turned around and saw a creature that looked like T-rex but was made from shining dark brown metal. It even had a dark red horn on its head that started shining and released a laser beam towards Athan.

Athan didn't move as he wanted to test the attack power of the creatures here. However, he could feel that this T-rex was one of the lowest level beasts since he couldn't feel a threat from it.

The laser hit the chest of Athan, but it couldn't even push him back. He then dashed towards the T-rex, who opened its big mouth to bite Athan, but Athan simply grabbed its two jaws before using his Blood Magic: Demolition Covenant.

*BEEEEEEEM*

The laser blasted a big hole in the T-rex since Athan turned it into a wider range after being released from one of the floating orbs.

The T-rex turned into shining motes before condensing into a white crystal with some golden motes inside it.

Athan picked it up and checked it, " This energy...never seen it before. "

He could feel some kind of energy from the crystal but failed to recognize it since he had never seen it before.

" Wait...Since this layer is for people who are at Spirit Astride plane then..."

Athan decided to summon one of his Altar spirits from the special space. After thinking for a moment, He called out Skylord.

The Skylord was in miniature form, so it only looked like 2 meters tall and 3-meter long cute dragon with four colorful wings.

" Master...." The Skylord stopped halfway as its attention was shifted from Athan and intently looked at the white crystal with golden motes inside it.

Seeing Skylord like this, Athan asked curiously, " Do you know what this crystal is? "

The Skylord turned to Athan before saying, " Master...I don't know what this crystal is, but...I feel like eating it. I don't know why but it feels like this crystal was meant for me, and I could also feel it right after arriving here. So it's probably for me...Can I eat it, Master?"

Athan was speechless and said as he passed the crystal to Skylord, " Alright, eat it and tell me what it does. "

The Skylord appeared happy as it opened its mouth and ate the crystal.

*Crunch...*

Athan heard a crunch sound one time as Skylord broke the crystal, but that was all. After that one crunch, The crystal dissolved into some kind of energy and entered inside the Skylord.

" Master, This energy...it's made a bit stronger and also changed something inside me, but I can't exactly pinpoint what it changed. "

Athan smiled wryly and said, " Well...I can't understand anything from just a little information. "

The Skylord suddenly turned straight and spoke seriously, " I think we will find out about it as long as I continue to eat it. "

Athan speechlessly said, " Looks like you liked that whatever energy heh! "

Skylord repeatedly nodded, " Yes, Master. It felt good when that energy entered inside my body. "

" Let's go and explore this place. If we find more, then I'll let you eat. "

*Rawrrr..*

The Skylord happily roared and expanded its body before becoming a big 20-meter long dragon. Athan jumped on its back and sat down as they started flying in a random direction on this mysterious land where everything was made from shining metallic.

...

Clear Lake region, Lemeanor Clan.

The clan was basically a tiny town but had exquisite buildings. In this tiny town which was more like a village, A big palace stood in the middle.

Inside the main hall of the palace was a big table with eleven chairs around it. Among those chairs, One looked bigger and better looking than others, and on it, A middle-aged man with light green short hairs sat with a serious expression.

His right arm was cut off from the shoulder, and besides from the main chair, only six other chairs were filled up by people of various ages.

No one was speaking anything and just sat there silently, seemingly waiting for something to happen or someone to arrive.

After five minutes, Everyone looked at the doors where they saw two middle-aged men coming inside.

Gerian stood up from his clan head's chair and asked with a worried face while also exuding a certain pressure around him, " Any news? "

The two middle-aged men bowed before one of them spoke after opened his mouth and closed it before saying anything, but when he felt the pressure increasing around him, He finally spilled the news, " Clan head, We couldn't find her in that universe, The magic bead failed to sense her presence in the universe that you sent us. "

Gerian slumped into his chair with anguish in his eyes and muttered, " Impossible. I don't believe it. " His eyes then turned ferocious banged his left hand on the table before shouting, " Continue finding her. You already have the magic bead that can sense her location. Check out all the universes around that one, Don't return before finding her. "

The two middle-aged men nodded and hurriedly left the palace since they also couldn't bear to see their clan head's current state.

Gerian slowly calmed down and looked at the other six people. Two of them looked elderly with white hair.

One of the elders looked at Gerian and spoke hesitatingly, " Qerin had that item with her, right? If...she were....alive, then she would've definitely returned by using it. "

*BOOM..*

The table turned into dust as Gerian stood up and looked at the elder with cold eyes before speaking. Each word from his mouth turned the atmosphere in the hall oppressive, " What...do...you...mean....by...that? "

" Please calm down, clan head. " A person who looked a middle-aged man with white hair spoke hurriedly.

Right after that, The second white-haired elder spoke with determination, " Gerian, You should think rationally. Since Qerin didn't return by using that Ite--"

Before he could finish speaking, Gerian appeared right in front of him and punched him with his only hand as the old white-haired elder was flung outside of the palace before breaking several walls.

Gerian disappeared from his place and appeared outside, where the white-haired elder found a balance and floated in the air.

" Cough...Gerian you..."

" Me what? I still don't know how they could sneak attack us, and I also know that we have a traitor amongst us. " Gerian slowly neared the white-elder.

The white-haired elder revealed fear and was scared shitless because he saw killing intent in the eyes of Gerian and shouted in alarm, "GERIAN,? I AM YOUR FATHER'S BROTHER. EVEN IF YOU ARE CLAN HEAD, YOU CAN'T ARBITRARY KILL ME. "
