Nameless King

Wain ran forward as yellow electric discharges appeared beside him, as a rumble of thunder echoed through the arena.

Axel was about to block the attack, but before he could blink, Wain was already behind him.

"What the hell...!" Axel exclaimed as Wain's fist reached his face.

The impact threw Axel aside, but Wain was already there as he could move with great speed.

Axel tried to counterattack, but it seemed impossible. Wain as though a flash appeared from different directions, each time leaving a serious burn on Axel's body.

"Huh, look at that, they switched places. Who would have thought Nameless had such a unique skill." The onlooker uttered with a pleasant look.

"Skill? Are you stupid? Obviously, he used his Form! His appearance has completely changed, and there's special armor, that's something normal skills can't do!" His buddy exclaimed while pointing at Wain.

"Well, then, it's not over yet, right? Axel must have a trump card, too. Maybe he's already got his Form? If so, this is just the beginning." The man muttered in a curious manner.

Bam. Bam. Bam.

Axel had to stand in full defense as he covered his head with his hands and tried to put his back under the blows that were already covered in bleeding wounds since Wain's blows had destroyed his armor.

"Bastard! Bastard! Bastard!" Axel muttered in a furious voice, "You're going to be very sorry for making me do this!"

Axel spread his arms out to his sides as a wave of wind threw Wain back a few feet. Wain was about to counterattack immediately, but dark energy suddenly emanated from Axel's that burst out of him in a massive torrent as it rushed toward the sky.

"Is that darkness...? Elf? Is there such a thing?"

"I don't know... But, he must be an outcast among the other Elves..."

The spectators were puzzled by Axel's strength, but they were to be even more surprised as the hatred of the Elves who were watching the fight grew.

"Axel Demaret... I've heard that name somewhere before." One of the Elves muttered while rubbing his chin with a pensive look, "Strange that an Elf with the attribute of darkness is still alive, this will have to be fixed."

"Agreed. This will be his last duel, only death awaits him ahead!" The elf with short blond hair exclaimed as his aura multiplied.

'Idiots.' Vincenz thought as a devious smile appeared on his face, 'They have no idea who Axel patronizes. Huh, even Elf Head would have a hard time dealing with him.'

"Damn... What is that?" Wain muttered while watching the darkness slowly engulf Axel as the energy flow was so powerful that he couldn't get any closer.

Axel's hair turned black, his eyes amethyst and his skin darkened as there were several ancient runes on his body. On his feet appeared massive boots that emanated black lightning discharges.

Axel looked at the Elves, pointed his hand at them, and said, "You think you can deal with me? You're nothing that would kill your own kind just because of what you think is the wrong attribute. Your hearts are far blacker than even the worst darkness."

The elves frowned but did not dare answer, as no one had the right to interfere in the fight.

"Hey, can I ask you a question?" Wain looked at Vincenz while his golden hair fluttered due to the enormous amount of energy.

"Sure. I'm always ready to help you." Vincenz smiled as he bowed slightly as though butler.

"What happens if I destroy the barrier?" Wain asked with a serious look.

"Wouldn't it be more interesting to find out for yourself?" Vincenz grinned.

"Well, maybe you're right." Wain said before turning into a golden flash.

Wain ran around Axel while gradually building speed. To onlookers, it looked like a golden ring that slowly narrowed toward Axel.

"Let's find out how strong this barrier is!" Wain exclaimed as he attacked Axel.

Axel was able to block the attack with his arms outstretched forward, but not the momentum that carried him further to the edge of the barrier.

"What are you doing? Do you think it's that easy to break through the barrier? This is the Coliseum, not some pathetic underground arena!" Axel exclaimed while trying to contain Wain.

The runes on Axel's body glowed brightly as a torrent of darkness descended upon Wain as though tar was slowly covering Wain, so his speed dropped considerably.

"I just don't want this fight to turn into a fucking fire show with black and gold flash. We should do something more interesting, don't you think?" Wain smiled as the wings on his boots began to move even faster.

"What the...!" Axel exclaimed as his silhouette became a blur.

They were moving so fast that it was no longer clear which of them was where, they were nothing more than a dark and golden flash from which the whirlwind began to rise.

"Hehehe, it's been a long time since anyone has tried to break the barrier. It's a pity that so many don't know that it can be done." Vincenz muttered as he walked to the platform's edge and sat down next to the barrier.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

In time the vortex became too much as the energy that emanated from Wain and Axel, so the barrier began to absorb it. However, the load was too great and prolonged, so the barrier began to crack in some places.

"Are they really going to do that?!" Someone exclaimed with a worried look.

"Shit! We've got to get out of here! When the barrier explodes, all the energy will come crashing down on us! It's going to end badly for sure."

'Eh, they're already starting to panic.' Vincenz inwardly muttered while holding his head with his hand, 'They put on a good show, but they need a little help.'

Vincenz touched the barrier with the tip of his finger as a green wave of energy passed over it. Somehow all the cracks disappeared, but Vincenz didn't fix the barrier, he just moved all the damage to one place.

Crackle.

On the west side of the arena, the barrier shattered.

"Here we go." Wain muttered as he headed that way.
