Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God
875 Emitheyus
He fell to the ground with a loud crash.
At first, he wanted to vent his frustrations by yelling at the man who bumped into him. But, when he looked up he saw something that sent shivers down his spine.
A tall man, draped in a black cloak, wearing a mask of silver and gold. Although he didn't say anything, this murderous aura he exuded shook him to his core.
The reason he was planning on berating the cloaked man was because the fabrics of the cloak were exceedingly cheap. Because that was all he could see, initially, from his vantage point, he assumed that this man had lowly status. As a man of the Void clan, despite being lowly there, he could raise his head high almost anywhere else.
But, when he was about to yell, all of his bestial instincts told him to not offend this man, or else his life would be on the line. So, he simply got up without saying a word, bowed in apology, before scurrying away again.
From beginning to end, the cloaked man didn't say anything, only watching the three black tails of the Void clan member bounce as he ran away.
'Why didn't you stop him?' The voice of the old man resounded.
"I don't want to kill indiscriminately. This is his only chance. If he offends me, I'll kill him. I'd like to see just how much these Void clan clowns plan to push me."
Although Dyon didn't know what happened to Ri during his absence, knowing the way of the world, he didn't doubt that the Void clan had given his woman trouble. But, despite knowing that, he wouldn't go around killing every Void clan member he saw for no reason. However… If they gave him a reason… They would feel his wrath.
At the end of the day, though, Dyon was in a good mood, because as soon as he rounded the corner and left the alley, he saw a beauty that took his breath away, lightly smiling as she looked down at him.
The breath of the still lingering crowd was taken away when this happened. They had never seen this beauty smile, as she was constantly hiding it up until now. But, for whatever reason, she seemed to be smiling down at them, as though she was a Goddess looking favourably upon her people.
Their hearts beat wildly, their visions blurring with tears for an inexplicable reason. They could sense the emotion in this smile, and it made them want to throw away everything to protect this woman with their lives. Even the women in the crowd couldn't help but get lost in the moment.
Suddenly, their goddess disappeared from her seat, causing them to sigh. How could they be worthy of seeing such a scene for too long? The fact they had seen it at all was enough of a blessing.
But, that was when their goddess suddenly appeared again, this time on the ground, right in front of them. The guards of the restaurant couldn't even react as the fragrance of a woman blew past them.
Were they seeing correctly, was their goddess really rushing toward them?
However, that was when a cloaked figure suddenly appeared before them all. No one could see his face, and he was definitely within the normal parameters of a human, yet his back seemed to block their vision out entirely.
In the next moment, their goddess rushed into the open arms of this cloaked figure, clutching her small hands to his chest and hiding in his embrace.
Ri's tails trembled with excitement, breathing in Dyon's scent as though she had to make sure this was real and not a dream.
Dyon lightly stroked Ri's head, tangling his finger in her long blue-silver hair. He truly felt more comfortable with her in his arms.
After a few moments, Ri finally stopped trembling enough to look up at Dyon, but she could only sigh when she saw his mask.
Dyon grinned, "Feeling sad you can't see your husband's rugged and handsome appearance?"
Ri giggled, flicking Dyon's forehead. But, the word husband set a bombshell off in the crowd. In fact, when Ri responded as though his use of the word was only normal, they almost fainted from shock.
They had heard rumors that Ri was married. Apparently she had had a huge falling out with the Void Clan where she stated that she and her husband would come back for revenge one day. At that point, it didn't mean much because Ri was completely unknown. During that time, Dyon was still in his very first trial, while Ri hadn't even taken one yet. So, it was news that many had long since forgotten… Until today.
Knowing how powerful Ri was… How powerful was her husband?
Everyone took another look at the young man's back and couldn't help but shiver. He had a murderous aura around him that sent a cold sweat down their backs, and that aura was only reserved for those who had just recently come out of high-level trials. Could it be that he was a new Emperor as well?
Since when did Emperors become so common place? They're supposed to be rare!
"Well, you're not alone." Dyon continued. "I feel depressed that I can only see half of my wife's appearance too." Dyon lightly touched the opaque white visor covering the top half of Ri's features. He felt her tremble when he did, but the feeling quickly disappeared.
Dyon couldn't help but frown when he saw this, thinking back to the Void clan rat that was scurrying through the back alleys. Originally, Dyon had been using the main roads, but his Presence caught a whiff of something he didn't like, so he decided to investigate. Now seeing Ri's reaction, he didn't like where this was going at all.
Ri knew that Dyon had seen through her, but she still quickly relaxed. There was nothing to be worried about with her man here now.
"I'll show you later." She said with a slight blush that sent the blood of the men in the crowd boiling. "For now, my husband can't be walking around in sweatpants and a cheap cloak. Let's go, your wife will treat you."
Seeing Ri's reaction, Dyon could only let it go for now. But, he did find it quite funny that Ri said she'd treat him. Why did he suddenly feel like one of those mortal realm millionaires on a reality show, where his wife used a credit card he gave her to buy him gifts?
But, he was gratified that Ri acted in this way. What was his, was hers. He wouldn't have it any other way. So, he allowed her to happily drag him away from the crowd, completely forgetting about the food she left on her table.
She didn't mind, though. She could just force him to peel fruits for her later.
Up on the King floors of the restaurant, the reaction to Ri's public displays of affection weren't any less surprising. The floor itself only had half a dozen people or so, but each one of them held prestige within the tower that few could match. As for the Emperor and holy God floors, they were completely empty. Emperors and Gods were much too rare to be sitting idly in a restaurant. The fact Ri came here at all was clearly for the special occasion of reuniting with her husband.
In truth, there was only one true King on the floor. As for the other five individuals? They were only invited Dukes. As a King, he had the ability of bringing people to floors they weren't qualified to enter.
"What do you think, King Emitheyus?"
It was quite customary for titles to come before names within the Epistemic Tower culture. It was a matter of prestige and recognition. So, Emitheyus took pride in being called by this name.
Truth be told, Emitheyus wasn't from an outstanding quadrant, they were only ranked within the 60s. However, he had still managed to become a King despite not having the backing normally required to accomplish such a thing.
With his performance, he managed to gain the recognition of the elders of his family, and thus be granted more power and freedom. He was a person who knew how to bide his time well, and thus could be considered quite intelligent.
When he saw Ri enter this floor, he knew who she was automatically, so cleverly decided not to bother her. However, he was curious about why she would appear here like this. It was only now that he knew why she would risk the Void clan seeking revenge just for some tea.
Suddenly, he smiled. "It seems we'll have quite the show to watch soon. I'm quite interested in this husband of hers and just how powerful he is…
"That massive bandaged package on his back weighs at least 700 000 jin, yet he's light on his feet. Even weirder, it seems to give off the fluctuations of a master level weapon… Have you ever seen a master level weapon or treasure be so heavy? He's either purposefully using it to train his body, or it isn't so simple as it seems…
"Even more odd, he's decided to cover his face. What young hero with such a wife wouldn't want the whole world to know who he was?
"Curious… Truly curious…" Emitheyus has a thoughtful expression on his handsome face, before he spoke again. "The Void Clan should be here soon. I wonder how this will end…"
Despite saying this, Emitheyus already had a guess. The fact Ri was going shopping with her husband and not running away, meant that she hadn't been hiding all this time, she just couldn't be bothered to care about the Void family. It was either that or…
Her husband was so powerful that even the Kings of the Void family were nothing more than jokes to him.
