Nameless King



In most cases, the overall power of an attack or spell did not depend on the amount of energy used. That was important, but much more important was how the energy was used and its density.

Thus, there was a significant difference between a master in the use of lightning skills and a beginner who was just starting out. Even when they reached roughly the same level of density and amount of energy, the master would always be much stronger because of his skill.

This rule worked for absolutely everyone, including Liang, The Strongest One. He had unique abilities that others didn't have, but he was also one of the best swordsmen in the entire universe.

When using his skills or wind power, he did so naturally, but because he had several hundred years of experience.

Only when he reached the pinnacle and discovered the mysterious power, only then did he stop devoting weeks or even months to practicing.

To some extent, this rule applied even to Alucard, but he usually didn't follow it. At least now, he definitely wasn't going to use some complicated technique or something like that.

He created a giant spear from the blood, complex in shape as if it had been crafted by a true master capable of forging weapons to kill gods.

Every moment, the spear was filled with more and more power, making the space shake. Energy waves passed through the spear, causing light ripples with light pulses spreading around.

"Oh, he seems to be serious." Liang muttered with a calm expression, "Without the aid of the World of Darkness, this Golem won't be able to withstand even a few simple attacks from Alucard."

Nila tilted her head in confusion, "Then why is it using so much energy to attack?"

"Hah, it's obvious." Liang smirked, "He just wants to show what he can do and tear that Golem into small shards. Anyway, I have to do something so that Alucard's selfishness doesn't get us in trouble again."

Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooosh.

Liang waved his hand, directing streams of wind toward the gap between the open space and the colosseum.

Gael and Ereg glanced over, nodded to each other, and raised their hands up as well.

Soon, two more barriers of white and black flame appeared in front of the solid barrier of wind. This was the three-layer defense needed to keep the spectators unharmed.

After all, Beastfolks had come here to watch Gael and Ereg's fight, not to watch Alucard having fun using his full power.

"Hah, get ready! This will be the last thing you see in your short life!" Alucard exclaimed before swinging his arm, and launching his spear straight at the golem.

The golem wasn't going to give up, even though World of Darkness no longer supported it. The golem didn't want to die like any other creature in this universe.

Whoooooooooooooosh.

The spear quickly reached the golem, piercing its chest and passing through several barriers of purple flame.  ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

The golem touched its chest, trying to somehow get rid of the huge hole, but it was impossible. Everyone realized that.

Then, the spear that was already behind Golem exploded, releasing all the energy that was inside.

The bloody explosion covered a huge portion of the bloody space, destroying the Golem and turning it into rubble.

Alucard grinned widely while the waves of blood passed over him. They couldn't hurt him, and he didn't care about the others. He knew that Gael and the others could easily defend themselves, he didn't need to worry about them.

"Damn... He's done so much for this, and yet he completely forgot about his main goal at a time like this." Wain muttered, looking at the streams of blood that were approaching the huge octopus.

Whoooooooooooooosh.

Kraken quickly swung his tentacles, trying to escape from the bloody streams that were quickly approaching him.

At this moment, Alucard stopped laughing as he realized what a mistake he had made.

Just as Liang had said, he didn't need to use so much power to defeat the Golem who was left without the support of the World of Darkness. Alucard did it just because he wanted to and as always he didn't think about the consequences.

"Fuck! Run faster!" Alucard exclaimed, turning into a bloody flash.

Even though Kraken was born in open space, he couldn't be faster than the bloody streams that possessed a tiny mass. They were moving fast enough to completely engulf Kraken in a few seconds.

There was no telling what would happen in such a case, but Kraken's instincts were screaming at him to stay away from the bloody streams. They were consuming everything in their path, and now even open space wasn't a safe place.

Whooooooooooooooooooosh.

Alucard appeared in front of Kraken with a worried face. It was rare for him to worry about anything, but this was the one time when even he couldn't stand by.

He had fought the World of Darkness to defend his ideology and principles, to show that he was not subject to the rules of any creature or entity. However, the second reason was to free Kraken from his chains.

If the bloody torrents from his attack were to kill Kraken now, it would be the greatest failure in his history and would stay with him forever for the rest of his immortal life.

Given the circumstances, Alucard simply couldn't let that happen! He had to do everything to protect his Pet from his own attack!

"Tsk. Why do things always happen like this?" Alucard snorted, before extending his hand.

Dense clots of blood appeared on his fingertips, they were light-colored, almost white with only a slight tinge of something red. 

Then, the blood grew darker and denser, first scarlet, then crimson, and then almost completely dark.

Alucard opened his palm wide, releasing clots of blood forward. Each clot released a multitude of thin threads, connecting to each other.

The space between the threads was completely covered in blood, forming a wide dark shield.

"Get behind me! Hurry!" Alucard exclaimed, turning back to Kraken.

Kraken did as he said and quickly found himself behind Alucard's broad back. Kraken was an octopus, so he was easily able to greatly reduce the size of his body by several times, clamping himself down tightly with his tentacles.

It was enough for the barrier to completely cover Kraken, and the streams of blood wouldn't hurt him, not even partially.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Streams of blood crashed into the barrier, trying to break it, but it was simply impossible. The barrier that Alucard had created required an enormous amount of energy. Such a barrier could withstand hundreds of attacks from adult Dragons before breaking down.

'Damn... I never thought I would have to use something like this. Well, I had no other choice anyway.'' Alucard internally muttered with a glance at Kraken.

Gael watching the scene smirked. Soon he couldn't contain his emotions any longer and started to giggle.

"Hmm?" Ereg raised an eyebrow in confusion, "Why don't you tell me what amused you so much?"

"Sure... It's just that it's funny that Alucard had to use a defense skill. I mean, he was creating a protective sphere trying to deal with the fireballs of the World of Darkness, but this is definitely a different case." Gael shrugged.

Ereg nodded, staring intently at the dark barrier. Bloody torrents crashed against it like massive waves against a rock, but they were just as powerless against something so solid and indestructible.

"Yeah... If it had the time to create such a barrier, World of Darkness would need to use several dozen spheres to damage it." Ereg uttered, noting the strength of the barrier.

"That's exactly what I'm talking about. This situation is like creating clones. All along he could have done it if he wanted to, but it wasn't until the battle with World of Darkness that the need arose." Gael smirked, watching Alucard's serious expression.

Gael continued, "He can create protective barriers just like the rest of us and frankly his ones are some of the strongest I've seen. However, why would an immortal creature need defenses?"

Ereg sighed, "Yeah, it makes sense. If it wasn't for Kraken, and his desire to name this monster, none of this would have happened. Well, Alucard himself is to blame for this, all of this only happened because of his actions. Otherwise, World of Darkness would not have fought against a living creature."

Whooooooosh.

Alucard swung his hand, casting aside the last streams of blood. They were weak and slow and definitely wouldn't be able to harm the barrier or Kraken.

"Agh... It's finally over." Alucard shook his head with a bitter smile on his face, then he turned to Kraken, again.

Alucard ran his palm through his hair, slicked it back, and adjusted his collar. He'd put a lot of effort into it and wanted it to look official.

"Fine, are you ready?" Alucard asked, with an excited smile.

Kraken gave a low nod. If he didn't have a choice before, now he actually wanted to be Alucard's pet. No monster would pass up such an opportunity. After all, in a way, Alucard was the ultimate monster of them all.
