At this moment, Athan was sitting in the grand flying ship that was ten times faster than Komin's flying ship.
Besides him, there was Nia, the Arbiter powerhouse, and another Arbiter powerhouse called Hojan. He was a subordinate of Raizor.
...
After Athan sensed the location of Tiana and Sen, he didn't waste a singly second and contacted Raizor so he could depart at the fastest speed and bring back Tiana and Sen.
Avelia wanted to come with him, but Athan didn't want to do that. He told her to focus on training with Lily and others.
As such, he went to Raizor after contacting him, and Raizor prepared his fastest flying ship for Athan and two Arbiter guards for him as well.
...
"It's a month now, and if your wives' presences are still far, then it only means that they are in Celestial Zone or Altair Zone," Nia spoke as she looked at Athan, who was sitting crossed-legged.
Athan nodded before opening his eyes, "they are still far."
"We will have to be more careful in the Celestial Zone," Hojan said as she rubbed his rough chin. Hojan was a slightly muscular man with two giant cow-like horns.
"People will either take it easy if we enter their territory or for the fun of it, they will pick trouble, so we should avoid such things," Nia said with a nod, "this distribution of territory has never happened before, so we don't know what will happen."
"If they pick trouble with us without reason or rythm, then we will kill them!" Taezin spoke with an angry snort!
"Indeed," Phor spoke while other voidlings also nodded.
"Better solve it peacefully to end it fast," Nia said plainly, "the main goal is to get back Athan's wives."
Athan nodded somberly, "We have to get back Tiana and Sen first."
After saying that, Athan closed his eyes and spoke, "I will tell you when we are near them or have to change direction. For now, keep going in this direction."
"Alright," Hojan nodded as he was the one controlling the flying ship.
...
Days passed, and fortunately, they didn't encounter trouble on the way as another fifteen days passed.
However, the trouble finally knocked on them when Athan reached the destination.
The flying ship stopped in the sky as Athan told them to stop and left the ship.
Nia and Hojan also left the ship before Hojan put it inside his inner space.
"There," Athan pointed at a large floating island with sky-high metal buildings and flying metal vehicles traveling everywhere.
The island was approx 2000 square kilometers big.
"Hoooo," Hojan took a deep breath before letting it out as he spoke wryly, "your wives really had to be at this place?"
"What about this?" Athan asked with a frown before he flew forward, "I will get them back, whatever this place is."
Hojan and Nia followed Athan as Nia spoke, "this island is known as the City of Morax. This city's city lord is Morax and probably one of the most powerful people in the entire Outrious Expanse, not just Celestial Zone."
"It's also guaranteed that he is one of the five rulers of this Celestial Zone," Hojan said, "he is a so-called ancient being. One of the oldest people of the Outrious Expanse."
"So we should keep a low profile here and finish our business as peacefully as possible," Nia said with a somber expression.
"Morax...," Athan muttered before a glint passed in his eyes, "let's hope this Morax doesn't become a thorn in my way. Or I will have to remove it in a hard way."
Nia and Hojan weakly smiled, "please don't joke around here, Athan. We have to move carefully here."
...
On the other hand, Sen and Tiana were inside a luxurious palace. They were in a large room with a king-sized bed that was extremely comfortable. The room was filled with beautiful ornaments and decorations with a heavenly fragrance.
There were three windows and three big balconies attached to this room in this grand Palace. The balconies were huge enough to be considered a garden as they were filled with cute birds and animals along with beautiful flower plants.
However, Tiana and Sen had despondent faces, while their eyes were filled with anger.
Both of them sat down on the bed as Sen cursed angrily, "damn this bastard Morax!"
Tiana grabbed her hand and spoke with determination, "Sen, what will you do if he goes one more step ahead? You know that we can't resist against him."
"I will kill myself," Sen spoke coldly and with resolve in her eyes.
Tiana smiled and patted Sen's head gently, "I will also do that, but let's hope for a chance. I believe that Athan will come soon. It's been more than a month since the isolation around us has been removed, so Athan should be on the way."
Sen became tearful as she hugged Tiana, "I want to see Athan. I don't want to die and want to live with him. But if that bastard forces us, then we will die!"
Tiana hugged Sen and rubbed her head as tears also appeared in Tiana's eyes, "I miss Athan as well."
'Athan...please come fast.'
...
"Sir Morax...those two are not accepting your proposal," spoke a busty lady with long violet hair while bowing toward a bald, middle-aged man with pierced ears and ornaments on his muscular body.
Morax was sitting on a throne in the main hall of the Palace.
Another man in the hall, who was a middle-aged man with light green hair, spoke with a snort, "those two women don't realize the chance they are getting. It is precisely because they supported lord Morax that they are getting this blessing of being concubines."
Morax waved his hand as he frowned and spoke towards the busty lady with long violet hair in the hall, "tell them to accept my proposal peacefully if they don't want me to get forceful. Either way, they are now mine, and if they live, they will live as my concubines, and if they die, they will die as my concubines."
"You know what to do if they refuse," Morax finished speaking as he narrowed his eyes.
"As you wish," the lady bowed, "I will try to convince them once again, and if not, then I will use my profound technique on them to wipe their memories and add new memories."
After saying that, she left.
Morax then looked at the middle-aged man and spoke, "go and announce in the city that Tiana and Sen are going to become my new concubines tonight. After eight hours, I will hold the banquet and ceremony in the Grand Plaza."
"Tonight?" the middle-aged man was startled before he laughed, "I shall congratulate my lord in advance. Congratulations on getting two new beautiful concubines."
...
After thirty minutes, Athan, Nia, and Hojan finally entered the city through the front gate.
"This city looks high-tech," Athan spoke as he saw that there were various electronic devices, holograms, and vehicles. However, all of them were also powered by Outrious potency.
"All of this is due to Lord Morax and his retainer's Outrious powers," Nia said, "Potency of Electricity and Metals along with digital electrical power."
"There are other similar types of places in other zones, but the this City of Morax is the most advanced," Hojan said before he pointed at the majestic metal palace with glassy and scally design filled with various patterns and additional decorative structures attached to the Palace, "that is the Grand Palace of Morax."
"That is our destination," Athan said as he looked at the giant Palace with narrowed eyes, "Tiana and Sen are there."
"Let's go!" Athan said as he started moving towards the Palace.
"Wait, wait! Athan, are you sure?" Hojan spoke while sweating.
"Absolute," Athan nodded strongly, "I can sense their presence in that giant palace."
Suddenly, a voice reverberated everywhere and repeated three times as Athan's face turned to one of a shock before twisting into a rageful one.
"GRAND ANNOUNCEMENT! Today, after eight hours, Lord Morax will hold the ceremony and banquet as Lady Tiana and Lady Sen will become his concubines!"
"GRAND ANNOUNCEMENT! Today, after eight hours, Lord Morax....
....
This loud announcement rang three times as the people of the city cheered.
"Calm down, Athan! Don't make a scene!" Nia hurridly spoke as she grabbed Athan's hand and suppressed his aura with her power, "first, know about the situation and then move."
"Listen to what people are saying...," Hojan's ear perked as surprise flickered in his eyes.
Indeed, surrounding people were talking about Tiana and Sen as if they knew about them.
"So Lady Tiana and Sen are becoming Lord Morax's concubines..."
"Well, it was told that they performed well along with other supporters of Lord Morax in the Grand Meet, so I knew that they would get this grand reward of becoming his concubines."
*swoooosh....!*
Athan flew towards the Palace as his vein almost popped, "reward my foot! There's no way they would accept becoming his concubines!"
"Athan!" Nia and Hojan caught up to Athan before speaking sharply, "don't make a scene! First, let's just go to the Palace with the reason being wanting to meet Lord Morax first! After that, we can decide what to do."
"What decision...," Hojan muttered with a frown, "there's no way that a figure of his level will take back his words."
"Athan, just don't drag us down when the time comes. We don't want to die with you," Hojan spoke straightforwardly.
A dark aura oozed out from Athan as he turned to Hojan and Nia before speaking coldly, "if you are scared, then get the fuck out now before I destroy this whole place."
