Nameless King

"Sure, let's start right away." Wain said seriously and stepped into the arena. His aura intensified, and a murderous intention emanated from him.

The Cosmic Beetles took no action, they watched the fight and waited for the Queen's orders.

'She evolved and heard us when we were hundreds of meters away, how interesting.' Osvald said inwardly, 'It won't be easy for him.'

As Wain had asked, Osvald would stay out of their way. He was watching the bugs, and they could feel it. All but Wain and the Queen became spectators, and the outcome of the battle would depend only on strength.

Wain stood in front of the Queen, and her wings came into motion. She stepped forward and delivered a lightning strike with her fist throwing Wain dozens of meters away. He flew into the wall and was buried under the rubble.

'Not bad. That punch would have easily pierced the skin of a lizard.' Osvald thought.

'Get up. Is that really all you can do?" The Queen said coldly, and then an arm emerged from the wreckage.

Wain slowly climbed out of the hole and shook off the dust.

"Sorry for the wait. I had to make sure of something." Wain muttered, and black and white energy streams appeared beside him.

Black and white armor appeared on Wain, and a massive Yin-Yang sign appeared in the arena. The sign glowed brightly, and suddenly Wain's strength began to rise, while the Queen's strength decreased slightly.

"What's going on...?" The Queen was puzzled.

Wain used a special skill of the first form, Equilibrium of the Sides.

After losing to the Lizard, Wain thought a lot about their fight and realized that he hadn't used all of his powers. Wain had not only strong weapons in the form of forms and a Beyond, but also several skills with unique effects.

Wain took advantage of the fact that all creatures in the area were limited in strength by the Second Chronicle. Not everyone was equal, some were stronger, some were weaker, but the differences in stats were minimal.

"What did you do?!" The Queen was wary.

"Nothing at all. It's just that you and I are stronger now." Wain grinned and ran forward.

He jumped and kicked with a spin. The Queen put her arms out in front of her and blocked the attack but was pushed back several meters, leaving a trail of her feet on the ground.

Then Wain turned and attacked again from the other side. He was hitting vulnerable points and had no intention of stopping.

Bam. Bam. Bam.

Wain was speeding up and gradually pushing Queen back, she couldn't attack, he wouldn't give her a chance to do so. Queen only defended herself. Wain immediately began to dominate the battlefield.

"Damn! Do you think you can keep beating me?!" Queen shouted, and her wings glowed purple.

She disappeared and appeared behind Wain. The Queen attacked, but Wain grabbed her wrist without looking and pulled her toward him. Queen tried to get out of the grip, but Wain wouldn't let her go. He turned around and punched her from bottom to top with his fist.

Queen tried to block the attack, but Wain was too fast. His fist slammed into her stomach, and Queen flew high up.

"Good punch." Osvald smirked, and a phantom snake tail appeared over Wain. It came down on the Queen like a whip, and she was buried under the ground.

The bugs fluttered their wings, they were worried about their Queen. Wain's attacks were powerful and swift, especially when he used the skill.

Wain looked coldly at the wreckage and clenched his palm into a fist. Electric discharges appeared in the air, and a dark thunder pillar descended upon the Queen.

Whooooooosh.

Suddenly, a space gap appeared above the Queen, into which the pillar of thunder flew and disappeared. The rift, absorbed all the energy and left the Queen unharmed.

"Looks like I underestimated you." The Queen muttered and flew out from under the rubble. A few purple lines glowed on her arms, and the space around her was unstable.

'That's right, she's the Queen of Cosmic Beetles, controlling space is her strongest ability.' Osvald thought and smiled. Wain had won the battle in the first round, but the rules had changed now.

Despite the many blows missed, the Queen was virtually unchanged. Her body was stronger than steel, and even the last attack left only a few scratches on her.

The Queen looked at the bugs and pointed at Wain.

"Kill him!" The Queen shouted, but none of the bugs moved.

"What?! Why you don't move?! I gave you an order!" The Queen didn't understand why her subordinates ignored her for the first time.

Tremble.

Suddenly goosebumps ran down her body, and she slowly turned her head and looked at Osvald.

What she saw shocked her, instead of Osvald, she saw a huge dragon whose tail was already wrapped around her neck. There was a terrible pressure coming from Osvald, and he shook his head slightly, indicating that she was acting wrong.

"Weren't you going to show me all your power? Those Bugs spent all their strength to create a cocoon for you so you could become stronger. Isn't that an insufficient contribution to victory?" Wain uttered and canceled the action of the first form.

"Shut up! Do you think it's fair to have such a monster on your side?!" The Queen was horrified at Osvald's strength.

"What nonsense are you talking about? He will not interfere in our duel. You can even kill me if you have enough power to do so. Osvald is just a spectator who makes sure the fight is fair."

Whooooooosh.

Wain's aura intensified.

"I don't need help to beat you. You will be a stepping stone for me." Wain stated menacingly, and streams of energy burst from the ground.

A gray robe appeared on him, and a tight bandage covered his eyes.

The Queen alerted and immediately attacked. She lunged forward and created several spatial rips next to Wain.

The blows almost reached Wain, but at the very last moment, he removed the blindfold and opened his left eye for the first time, which had the image of an entire hourglass on it.
