Nameless King

Whoooooosh.

The shockwave dispersed hundreds of meters around as the few trees bent to the ground, and some of them snapped.

Despite the extraordinary power of the blast, Amelia was fine, but all that was left of the ice barrier was a fine crumb that was blown away by a random wind current.

"Hmm? Is it really...?" Wain muttered as he turned around.

In his direction, with a slow stride, was Dan while drops of blood dripped from his left hand. Behind Dan was a ruined cave as among the rubble lay the wounded Ceozi.

'She's alive, though seriously wounded... Well, that's enough, the Demons are definitely one of the toughest races.' Wain inwardly muttered with a slight nod.

Whooooooosh.

Amelia jumped out of the crater and stared at Wain with a furious look.

"I knew you couldn't handle him alone." Dan said in a calm voice before creating several ice crystals.

"Shut up! I underestimated him, but it doesn't matter anymore. Against the two of us, he doesn't stand a chance!" Amelia exclaimed as new wind blades appeared around her hands.

"I agree. In that case, we should go straight to serious means." Dan uttered as his eyes sparkled, the same thing happened to Amelia.

Their auras intensified while their elements, wind, and ice covered them as though cocooned.

"Trying to activate your a Beyonds? Huh, do you really think I'd let you do that?" Wain uttered with a deadly look before turning into a shadow.

Wain appeared in front of Amelia as he attacked, but suddenly, there was an ice crystal in front of her that blocked the attack.

"Tsk. What nonsense." Wain frowned as he attacked again.

The cane, through streams of wind, rushed toward Amelia's head, but at the last moment, she opened her eyes as a wave of wind moved away from her.

The impact threw Wain sideways, but he was not hurt as he just landed.

"Great. No one can stop us now." Dan muttered since his appearance changed.

His hair turned blue, various tattoos appeared on his body as well as in his hands were two ice axes.

Amelia's Beyond didn't change much in her appearance, but on her feet appeared massive boots that worked from the force of the wind.

"Maybe there are two of you now, but that still doesn't mean anything. You're still weak, so if there were ten of you, I could easily deal with you." Wain uttered in a haughty manner as he pointed at them with a cane.

Crackle.

Several dark spheres appeared in front of Dan and Amelia that immediately exerted powerful pressure on them as their feet sank into the ground.

"Huh, he's too cocky, though he can't act any differently, an heir to such a terrifying human." Amelia grinned as she raised her hand in a careless manner.

Whooooooooosh.

Next to the spheres appeared wind blades that, in a heartbeat, shattered the orb into pieces as their energy dissipated.

"What?" Wain muttered while in disbelief before creating new ones.

Dan turned into a shadow and appeared beside Wain, raining his axe down on him.

Wain's pupils narrowed as he blocked the attack with his cane. The ice axes slammed into it, but it wasn't enough to break one of the Form's weapons.

"Ah? How is that possible?" Dan uttered with a dazed look.

"Away!" Wain swung his cane as he tossed Dan aside, but suddenly Amelia appeared beside him.

She stepped forward with sharp eyes, and her windblades left two deep horizontal cuts on Wain's back as, this time, the coat failed to protect Wain.

"Agh!" Wain threw up a mouthful of blood as a wave of pain ran through his body.

Bam.

Suddenly, one of the ice axes stabbed deep into his left shoulder. Wain's flesh began to freeze rapidly, and Dan wasn't going to stop there. He touched Wain's chest with his palm as the ground trembled.

Ice crystals burst from beneath the ground that as though a wave crashed Wain and threw him back a hundred yards while leaving dozens of cuts on his body with each passing second.

​ "Great. It's just impossible to fight with such horrible wounds!" Amelia exclaimed with a happy look as she raised her fist upward.

"Well, he didn't expect such a leap in our powers, we took advantage of the element of surprise, but you're right. His left arm is now incapacitated, and you've seriously injured his back." Dan said before running forward.

An icy wave carried Wain to the foot of the mountain as he found himself in the center of a massive crater that was studded with boulders. The situation was far worse than Dan or Amelia could have imagined as rivers of blood literally flowed from Wain.

Wain was breathing heavily while the coat was recovering as the energy from applying the second appearance of the Black Sun Aristocrat boosted Wain's regeneration.

'Hey! We're in a hell of a lot of trouble! They're running here at full speed, and when they get here, they'll kill you, Wain!' Black Sun Aristocrat exclaimed as he tried to reach out to Wain, but Wain completely ignored him.

"Gladius..." Wain muttered in a pained voice.

'I hear you.' Gladius uttered.

"It's been a long time since I met you... but I still haven't used your main power, have I?"

'Exactly. Do you want to do it?

"Sure. Is there a better time than this?" Wain smirked, "Don't worry about my wounds, I can take it. Ceozi made an amazing outfit, after all."

Tremble.

The inside of the coat, red, glowed brightly as Wain's regeneration and energy multiplied, then a dark, long sword appeared in his hand.

Wain slowly rose, glanced at Dan and Amelia running toward him, and muttered, "It's time to show you, Wrath of the King."

The seal in the crown appeared on Gladius as a powerful stream of dense gray energy burst forth from the sword that as though a flame burned before Wain.
