Nameless King

Streams of energy were coming out of Gisle's body, like a violent wind spreading hundreds of meters around causing the clouds in the sky to twist into a massive vortex.

"Hey, does it really have to be so pathetic?" Wain raised his head to look up at the changing sky, "Agh, maybe I'm not the one who should be saying that, right?"

'Exactly.' Gladius said seriously, 'Your rise in the Fifth Chronicle has caught the attention of literally a third of the strongest beings in this world, but here you are the only one.'

Click.

Suddenly there was a snap of the fingers and the vortex dissipated completely. The clouds formed a multitude of rings in the sky, floating slowly to the sides. At the same time, Gisle began to rise slowly from the ground with a pained look.

"Damn, I thought this would be more pleasant, why do I feel like I've just woken up from a long coma?" Gisle shook his head grudgingly, stretching up, and stared at Wain, "What do you think? Can you feel how I've changed?"

Wain was silent for a moment, while his gaze explored Gisle's energy. It wasn't visible to the average person, but there were very dense streams of energy floating around Gisle that were as dense as the monsters on the Demigod Stage.

"Well, you still have room to grow, but I can call your Fifth Chronicle evolution one of the best I've ever seen. You're lucky, your energy isn't very expansive, but it's dense and deadly, just like your attacks and your weapons." Wain said calmly as his gaze fell on Vexa.

Gisle grinned, put his katana on his shoulder, and headed forward, "Luck? Hah, I prefer to think it's all my credit since my energy is so because of me, not the other way around."

"We're done, right?" Wain glanced at him with ice-cold eyes.

"Yeah, that's more than enough. I definitely need a rest now, just time to think about how best to prepare for the Great War." Gisle paced slowly forward until he stopped and looked at Wain, "That's a rather strange thing to say, but thanks for killing me."

Wain smiled lightly with a slight nod, "Before you go, tell me where Eva is? You must know that, mustn't you?"

"Sure." Gisle's ring glowed brightly as a red coin appeared in his hand, "She is in her Void, most likely she is still there since she left only recently, so you will make it. I think you have much to discuss."

With these words Gisle disappeared like a torrent of wind in an unknown direction, leaving Wain alone in the midst of the vast forest.

'Well, well, your first love in over 500 years, that's rather curious.' Abyss Artist chuckled with a wide grin.

'Shut your mouth, it's none of your business.' Wain replied sharply, clutching the bloody coin tightly.

'Hey, there's no need to be so rude.' Abyss Artist grinned.

'Yeah, I agree, we're actually just happy for you.' Blind Sorcerer said with a slight smile, 'Though your meeting was unexpected, Eva is truly the woman who is perfect for you. She can be crazier than you and softer at the same time, isn't that a great combination?'

'Agh, maybe you're right, but it all depends on her. I don't know what her reaction will be, so I just have to tell her everything." Wain stared at the blue sky for a while before swinging his hand.ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ɴo(v)elFɪre.net

A dimensional rift opened before him as he stepped inside. There were several doors in the vast darkness, as Wain already had quite a few different keys, some of these doors he needed to go through, but later, right now he was only interested in one.

'Damn, I need to visit my Void and also talk to Sven, my last fight was quite long and bloody difficult, but the amount of things to do after that is even greater.' Wain complained inwardly before approaching the bloody gate from which streams of ash flowed.

Click.

A moment later Wain found himself on a massive hill covered with a multitude of bloody flowers that exuded a pleasant aroma.

"Damn, it's really beautiful here. My Void is much colder and darker than this beautiful place." Wain said with a bitter smile, looking up at the tall tower in the distance. It was the center of this Void and the only place Eva could be.

Whooooooooooooosh.

As soon as Wain took a few steps, several silhouettes with massive red wings immediately appeared in front of him. They were two girls, monsters that had evolved many times, whose long bloody swords immediately appeared in their hands.

'Guards? Damn, that didn't happen last time.' Wain inwardly muttered, assessing the girls in front of him, 'Wow, they're pretty strong, both are in the Fifth Chronicle. Then Eva has reached that stage too, hasn't she?'

"Who are you?" The girl's look became serious as she pointed at Wain with her sword.

'How did you get the key to this Void? You don't look like someone from Last Light." The second girl frowned as her aura intensified.

'They're pretty cocky. Agh, good security is always a big deal, but it's also pretty annoying to have to go through them every time.' Wain inwardly shook his head as the same was true of Luar's Void.

"Answer me!" The girl exclaimed with an angry look. She didn't understand why Wain didn't seem to care about her, even though she was one of the strongest in this space.

"Agh, you're too noisy, don't you think?" Wain asked in a cold voice before stepping forward.

The girls prepared to fight but in a heartbeat, Wain was already behind them and a terrible pressure came over the girls. Their legs trembled violently and after a few seconds, they were unable to resist and fell to the ground with frightened faces as if they were facing death itself.

"Good job, but you have to show respect to someone much stronger than you, well, I am not an enemy to Eva, perhaps I am her most important ally." Wain muttered looking up at the tower.
