The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 394: Ambition and Goal

Chapter 394: Ambition and Goal

On the other hand, Tealery had already reached the peak-stage Tier-3 order base six months ago and was trying to break through to orderic catastrophe since her soul had also met requirements because he was regularly training in normal soul strengthening methods from the start.

Sen's soul had also reached the requirement even before she came here since Ayurin told her to prioritize that. Just a month ago, She also reached the very peak of a Tier-3 order base like Athan and Tealery. So currently, she was also trying to break through to orderic catastrophe with Tealery.

They both went on to find wild chaotic powers to find the breaking point to enter into the Orderic Catastrophe stage while Athan just silently stood there with his eyes close as if he was doing something.

As for Arcued...Well, his situation was not good. Honestly, He had worked his ass off and only took breaks when he absolutely needed one.

Just yesterday, He had comprehended the final level order of his essence order method and started his path of peak-stage Tier-3 order base.

But...There is only a year left before the deadline.

In this year, He will have to saturate his essence core. Arcued also doesn't know if his soul has met the requirement since one only can check it after being at the very peak of the Tier-3 order base.

Though he knew that, he would most likely need to strengthen his soul.

Currently, He was not training but lost in thoughts.

' One year...Sigh. I don't think I'll make it. '

His eyes already revealed the despair of not breaking through to the orderic catastrophe stage in time and missing his chance at trying to enter Chaos Monolith Hills.

" Arcued!! "

Hearing the intimidating shout, Arcued snapped out of his thoughts as he blankly looked at Athan's cold face.

Athan frowned and questioned, " What are you doing instead of training? You do know that your time is tight. "

Arcued formed a hollow smile and shook his head, " It's over for me. I can't..."

*smack....*

Athan punched Arcued in his stomach and sent him flying fifty meters away.

*Puuuuu...*

Arcued spewed a mouthful of blood before looking blankly at Athan, who already once again stood in front of him.

He was too confused and in despair to feel the pain. He himself knew that His clan, his parents, had put their hopes in him. If he didn't even try, He would truly become a loser.

But...no matter what he thought, He couldn't change his pessimistic view of his future that he won't be able to break through to the orderic catastrophe stage.

" Stand up. "

Arcued was on the verge of crying as he stood up and finally felt the pain of Athan's punch as some of his ribs were broken.

*Groan...*

Athan narrowed his eyes before speaking, " Don't shed a single tear in front of me. Your pain and what you are feeling are not even an ounce of the suffering I have gone through. "

Arcued was scared seeing Athan like this. He wanted to say that they were different people and each people have their own breaking point, but he didn't dare say anything.

He didn't say because he knew that Athan also had more than one breaking point where he already broke once or twice or more times, which caused his breaking point's range to increase each time, and he became what he is right now.

Athan looked into Arcued eyes and sighed before throwing a pill towards him.

He then sat down on the ground and looked at this colorful humid sky filled with water of this chaos phenom dimension.

" I was unambitious, not decisive, and...a loser too, I guess. I decided that after taking my revenge, I will live a happy life...with my family. There was also a promise to a little girl that I would save her parents...Hahaha. "

Athan laughed as he remembered Mimi. He knew that Mimi was innocent, and her parents deceived her....Anyway, everything about that didn't matter since nobody remembers him anymore.

Shaking his head, he continued, " But it seems that my luck was bad. One incident changed everything. My dreams were shattered, and I experienced something far worse than death. My everything was taken away from me—My own existence was erased. "

Arcued was dumbfounded, ' Far worse than death? Existence erase? What did he go through? '

He looked at Athan and asked, " What happened then? "

Athan grinned widely, " I didn't give up. Why would I take it lying down? Even in that hopeless situation, I truly didn't want to give up. I wanted to survive in any form or using any method. I was willing to do anything just to survive. That was my deepest instinct at that time. "

" And so...here you are? But wait, You said family? Do you...umm, still have your family?. "

Athan converged his grin as he looked in the sky before closing his eyes, " I have, and I am going get them back. "

" Get them back? "

Athan opened his eyes with his previous sadness gone and looked at Arcued.

Arcued instantly tensed up seeing those mystical but overbearing eyes. He saw Athan forming his usual grin once again and heard something unbelievable.

" I want to stand at such a peak with my close ones that no power in existence can do anything to them or me. Nothing should be able to take anything from me anymore. My first goal in this path is to rule the whole Chaosverse. "

" Rule the whole Chaosverse? "

Arcued repeated this absurd claim as he looked at Athan with a bewildered expression.

Athan laughed and nodded as he stood up. He looked at Arcued for a moment before shaking his head, " You are too weak. You...are a loser. You know, right? "

Arcued ducked his head down in shame because...when he also feels the same about him, then he can't become angry at others calling him that.

" Don't you have any fire inside you? Do you want to just live, rot and die? "

Hearing that, Arcued gritted his teeth because he obviously didn't want to do that. But...He knew his own limit.

" B-but...I am nothing special. I have no talent, not as hard-working as you, and...my abilities are lacking. My limit..."

" IDIOT! Everyone has their limits! BUT do you know why there are limits? "

Arcued looked at Athan, whose eyes were shining brightly with resolve, and heard, " Limits are there so you can break them. Break your limits! "

" Break my limits? " Arcued muttered.

" Just fucking do it! Even if you die in the process, you are not to regret not trying! Because when you reach the end of your life without trying, You will definitely think that....[ Only If I tried more at that time.] "

Hearing that, Arcued felt something hot in his chest, ' Try...'

" Hehehe....Do you want to conquer this whole Chaosverse with me? I definitely need some henchmen for that. Are you up for that job? "

Arcued looked at Athan with newfound light. To him, Athan was always crazy, but...he felt like going along this craziness for the first time, ' What's the fucking harm in that? I don't want to leave any regret that I didn't even try! '

But he just heard something that almost made him doubt his resolve.

" Ehh...But you are pretty weak, and if you proved to be useless, then I'll just dump you somewhere. So be prepared. "

Arcued speechlessly looked at Athan, who had already started walking back to his spot.

But the look in his eyes has changed, ' I'LL DO IT! '
