Nameless King

Virion with a slow step headed toward Wain as cracks appeared on the ground with each step he took. All the gravitational force was concentrated at his palms, but his total weight was even greater than before.

'I hate to admit it, but he's right. Given that he now has the power of gravity, my skills won't have much effect. Even if I use the power of Chaos or Ether... it will only use up my reserves...' Wain muttered inwardly while looking at Virion with a calm look.

'You know what needs to be done, don't you?' Black Sun Aristocrat said as a slight smile appeared on his face.

'Yeah... Luckily, besides Gladius I have two other ways to fight with just physical strength. That's what I need now, I have to get him to use as many runes as possible.' Wain said to himself as his aura increased dramatically.

Wain realized that Virion had not yet used the Form, which could completely change the whole fight, so he had to drain him as much as possible until then.

'I have many different powers... but unlike everyone else I don't have my own Form, so the only trump card I have left is my a Beyond...' Wain internally muttered with complicated looks while thick streams of darkness enveloped him, 'Moreover, I don't know why but I have a strong feeling that he is hiding something else besides the Form... He has two attributes for a reason.'

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Darkness covered the last part of his body as powerful waves of energy began to emanate from him, shaking the space.

'Hmm? He decided to use his the Form... but then why is the energy diminishing?' Virion inwardly muttered before waving his arms, creating a gravitational barrier in front of him.

Clots of darkness from Wain flew off to the sides, some of them leaving serious damage on the walls. The shreds of darkness that hit Virion's barrier just dissipated due to gravity and lost all their power.

Whooooooosh.

The darkness vanished as Virion saw Wain's new appearance.

He wore a long, red aristocratic coat, and white gloves, and his hair was half-red. His face had only part of a mask covering his left eye. The most notable detail was a black cane with a majestic aura as if it were a family heirloom.

"A cane...? Are you sure about this?" Virion muttered in a mocking way as a slight smile appeared on his face.

"You think this is funny? Well, you seem to have too much confidence in gravity, which isn't really just your power." Wain uttered with a deadly ice-cold look before stepping forward.

Virion was puzzled by his words as he had never seen Wain use the power of gravity.

'Does he have that power too...? No, that's impossible, even for him gravity is something quite unique.' Virion wondered as his eyes went wide as Wain suddenly disappeared.

Wain appeared right in front of Virion with a cane crashing down on his head. Virion naturally smirked as he swung his arm and the cane hit his gravitational field. At the same time, the pressure on Wain greatly increased as his cane headed for the ground as it became too heavy.

"Hahaha, idiot! Do you think you can resist my gravity!" Virion exclaimed with an excited expression.

Wain remained calm as he took a step forward, approaching Virion closely, and whispered like a spirit of death, "Do you think I'm the idiot? Are you really so stupid that you don't understand that gravity can be used by everyone? It's not your power, it's a natural property of our world, so... get ready."

Whoooooooooosh.

Wain flipped the cane to his other hand as the gravity effect loosened slightly, and with all his might he attacked downwards, bringing the cane down on Virion's shoulder.

Perhaps after Virion used his a Beyond his physical strength surpassed Wain's, but he was also damn strong, especially when moments before the blow his cane hit Virion's gravitational field and became ten times as heavy.

"ARGHHHHH!!!" Virion cried out in pain as one simple attack was enough to cause his shoulder to crack and blood gushed out from the torn flesh.

"Do you see? Even if you can change the force of gravity at will, that doesn't mean it doesn't work on itself, so try not to die from your own force as it would be a shameful death." Wain said in a calm voice before clenching his hand into a fist and from all his strength hitting Virion in the stomach.

Crack. Crack. Crackle.

Wain's fist slammed into Virion's stomach, causing his face to twist in pain. At the same time, Virion's eyes went wide as blood gushed from his mouth when the shockwave hit his body.

The impact threw Virion backward a dozen meters, causing him to roll over the ground until he reached the wall and collided with his back.

"Well, well, it seems that none of your opponents have been able to resist your gravity before. It's pretty funny that it was against me that you failed." Wain uttered while slowly stepping forward.

Virion's wounds were not critical, especially for an experienced fighter like him, to him they were just scratches, however, his mind was actually shaken.

'Fuck... all I achieved by using the second rune was to repel the energy beams, but I immediately lost to him in close combat...' Virion inwardly muttered slowly rising as his gaze went to Wain's cane, 'his weapon... it has a longer range than me with bare hands, at this rate I will never get him, he has too good reflexes. Well, it's a good thing I've got something for that, too.'

Crackle.

Virion stood up, prostrated himself, and directed energy toward the ring as it glowed brightly. A rather long sword appeared in his hand, different from the one he had originally. It looked very simple, but the few straight lines on the sword, as if it were assembled from parts, made Wain tense.
