Chapter 613 – A Month.
Seeing Elena like that, Gaarshil felt pain as well. However, his eyes had turned determined as he walked towards Elena and kneeled.
Elena turned to Gaarshil and looked at him with tear-filled eyes before uttering, "why?"
"Why didn't you understand my stubbornness when I was holding Linci after she was born?" Elena's voice was filled with pain, anger, and disappointment in her husband.
Gaarshil kneeled and dropped his head as his eyes also dropped tears. He regretted and loathed himself now, but…past can't be changed.
So now, he wanted to be punished. He wanted punishment!
He himself felt that he deserved to be punished. As such, he kneeled like that and spoke in a hoarse voice, "Elena…Linci…, I am sorry."
Elena wiped her tears as she sighed and turned to look at her daughter.
Linci saw her mother looking at her and said to her softly, "I…need you but not him."
Since she was small until now, she had done everything by herself, with no one to help her. She endured all of that just to save her mother and stay with her.
"Mother, we will live together from now on, okay? Promise me," Linci said in a pitiful voice.
Elena couldn't help but let out some tears as she hugged Linci and repeatedly nodded, "of course, we will stay together."
"When my family comes to upper-chaosverse, we will live with them together. We don't need to stay here," Linci said with a happy smile as she thought about the future, "Athan will become very powerful and even rule over everything here. We will stay with him."
Gaarshil's body trembled as he thought, 'will I not even get a chance to repent?'
Elena showed helplessness, but she understood her daughter's mentality. There was this lively glow in her eyes when she talked about Athan, Sen, Tiana, and other people whom she didn't know and hadn't met yet.
Elena knew that besides herself, the only family Linci considered were those people. They took her out from despair and showed her a new world—a world where Linci could live happily and in comfort.
"Sure, my precious. We will live together with them," Elena said as she caressed Linci's back gently.
Gaarshil felt pain in his heart hearing that.
Elena was angry with her husband and even felt like beating him, but…she loves him as well, just like how he loves her and did everything he could to save Elena all these years. She actually wanted her daughter to feel the care of her father and mother that she had been missing out on since she was a child.
However, when Linci asked about that promise, she also couldn't say no to her. But she still had time to make things right because Linci also mentioned that besides Athan, all other people were still at the peak of the Zen order elite, which means that it would take time for them to come here.
'She is more attached to Athan…I have to talk to Athan and tell him to convince Linci,' Elena thought before she smiled at Linci and said, "why don't you introduce Athan to your mother? he is here, right?"
Linci's eyes instantly turned bright as she hurriedly nodded.
"He…"
Elena and Linci turned to Gaarshil as he opened his mouth to say something. His gaze landed on Linci, but Linci directly averted her gaze from him as it turned cold.
Gaarshil didn't feel anything in the past when Linci looked at him like that. Right now, however, he felt as if a knife was stabbing in his soul seeing his…daughter like that.
He closed his eyes before speaking hoarsely, "Athan…he seems to be meditating and doesn't want to be disturbed."
Hearing that, Linci turned to Elena and said, "then we shouldn't disturb him. We will wait until he comes out."
"As you wish," Elena said with a smile as she patted Linci, "come with me. Let me cook some special dishes for my daughter."
Elena grabbed Linci's hand as she led her outside the room while speaking with a gentle smile, "I am going to feed you by my hand since I didn't get that chance when you were small."
Gaarshil slowly stood up as he sighed and returned to his room.

Days passed as Tiana, Avelia, Sen, Drizzly, Shiromi, Tealery, Arcued, Theo, and Nimpere brothers trained and broke through to Zen order Master.
The final requirements to break through to Zen order Master were to have three complete mini-chaotic worlds with three unique chaotic powers and a total of 3000 zen order sets.
Naturally, they longed to surpass that amount of zen order sets before completing their third mini-chaotic world and creating their third unique chaotic power.
So once they finished their third chaotic world and perfected their third chaotic power, they triggered their breakthrough and fought against a chaotic phenomenon that appeared to kill them.
However, all of them survived and defeated their respective chaotic phenomenons as they received a large boost in their strength. Their Order Eidos was enhanced significantly, which enhanced their order force, and their curtain of chaos and soul were also enhanced.
At this moment, Avelia was cooking the food while others helped her since they were taking a break after breaking through to Zen order Master.
"It's been a month since Athan went up," Theo said in a voice that contained slight worry.
"Humph, nothing can happen to Emperor," Arcued snorted, "I can somehow feel that Emperor is getting stronger."
Although everyone had absolute trust in Athan, they were still a bit worried. After all, Athan went to the upper-chaosverse, which is said to be the real chaosverse. The lower-chaosverse and this special-grade phenomenon are like child's play there, according to Lady Fu and Zorgia.
"Don't worry, young master Athan has the legacy of Void Emperor. Since Void Emperor is likely in the upper-chaosverse, nothingness can happen to young master Athan," Zorgia spoke with conviction.
But hearing him, Tiana, Avelia, Drizzly, and others looked at each other with some speechlessness.
Only they knew that Void Emperor was not Athan's predecessor, but….Athan himself.
