Nameless King



As soon as Arden touched the spear, the entire world was covered in a golden flash. Even some beings from other spaces saw the phenomenon, but only the most attentive, with special positions in this world.

The dark red spear began to change, its outer shell cracked and shattered into small pieces like the shell of an egg. In fact, not even Polosa could fully activate the full power of this weapon that emerged from the very core of the vast world.

Arden's hair fluttered in powerful gusts of wind while he stared at the spear. He held it firmly in his hand, not about to let it go.

With the spear, Polosa lost many years of his life to great power for a short period, but in Arden's case, it was quite different.

The spear connected with his energy flows, taking some of his power, but giving him his own in return. The process was cyclical, and gradually Arden's power grew, it seemed as if it could go on indefinitely.

"What an unusual feeling... It's like I can do anything... All I have to do is wish for it..." Arden muttered with a deep gaze, then he pointed the tip of his spear downward.

Though Sven and Polosa didn't want to bring much destruction to Plant World, it was inevitable when fighting two opponents of this level. In the center of Plant World, where Polosa ruled the castle, there was now a wasteland and dead land.

The rain had corrected the situation slightly, but this place was special as if some force did not allow anything else to grow here.

In fact, it was all about Sven's energy. Even though the fight was already over, but the pressure exerted by the particles of his energy remained, simple plants simply could not go through such pressure.

This place was to remain forever a wasteland as a reminder of an important day in the history of all Plants. Today their Queen died, but today a King was also born. The Plants took it for granted, but not Arden.

Whoooooooooosh.

A golden beam flew out of the spear that reached the ground with lightning speed. The density of the beam was terrifying, its power enough to turn a massive mountain to dust, but Arden used the power for another purpose. He didn't want to destroy, he wanted to create.

As the beam touched the ground, ripples of gold rippled from the point of impact, spreading all around.

The inhabitants were unaffected, but the earth was greatly affected. On the black wasteland, golden sprouts began to sprout. They grew very slowly, and there were very few of them, but Sven's energy was no barrier to them.

"I see... A spear that can take life for the sake of power can also use power to give life..." Sven muttered as his eyes went wide, "Well, Polosa actually screwed up in every aspect. It's hard to even imagine what opportunities she had, but she didn't take advantage of them."

Marlis watched the golden plants with interest. She had already seen two amazing things happen today, and as a scientist, she was excited about it.

The beam continued to transmit energy to the plants, Arden seemed to have an endless supply as despite the density of the beam it did not tire at all, on the contrary, its power only increased.

Gradually, the plants grew larger, and they lost their golden layer, taking on their usual green color for the stem. Their buds were still unopened, continuing to move upward toward the sun.

"Oh, I think I know what this is going to be. The biggest flower in the world, simple but clear. Considering it comes from Arden's energy, it fits him perfectly." Wain muttered, looking at the sprouts that had spun together.

It was now one huge flower, ready to bloom at any moment. Then, Arden stopped channeling energy to the ground, and the flower began to slowly open.

Perhaps some of the Plants were expecting something unique or rare, however, it was the most ordinary, though gigantic sunflower.

The huge flower soaked up the sunlight as its petals shone brightly and the seeds grew quickly, falling out of the center on their own.

Each seed triggered the growth of another sunflower, but much smaller. This went on until all the dead earth was filled with sunflowers of varying sizes, from a single giant to hundreds of tiny ones.

"Good. That was a great show." Sven nodded approvingly with a slight smile.

Arden took a deep breath. The spear stopped shining brightly, though he still held it in his hand, but it retained its new shape, now Arden could always use it, including for battles.

"Arden... I know this may not be the best time for this, but I can't stay here any longer. I must fulfill my mission." Sven said calmly.

Arden's face immediately became more serious. He looked at Sven and nodded.

"Sure. Let's get it over with." Arden said sternly as if he was ready to fight Sven right now, then a kind smile appeared on his face, "Next time come to our world as guests, not as invaders. Only, after the war is over."

Sven smirked, "Don't worry. I won't have time before then. However, when I can finally rest, I will do so at once. I'm sure with a ruler like you, this place will be more beautiful than ever."

Arden nodded, then he headed toward the ground. The passageway that led to Crystal Mind Dew was open, all they had to do was go down.

Sven relaxed, his last mission before the Great War had been completed, and he had done everything perfectly. Each time he found a way to complete the task, find energy for Marlis and do it all covertly from his rulers.

Marlis and Osvald looked at each other, then they followed.

Sven was about to step onto the stone stairs, but, at that moment, his eyes went wide, and a shiver went throughout his body.

"Hmm? Is something wrong?" Arden was puzzled.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Sven's energy spun out of control as his face contorted in anger.

Arden jerked sharply aside with a great frown. He didn't understand what was happening, so he braced himself for battle. After all, Sven could become his enemy at any moment and he had to be ready for that.

The other Plants did the same. They were ready to defend their world to prevent such destruction once more.

Marlis and Osvald were puzzled, they had absolutely no idea what Sven was doing and why suddenly his emotions swept over him like a hurricane.

The only one who understood the reason for Sven's actions was Wain, who smirked insidiously. He had been waiting for this moment for some time, ever since the fight with Polosa ended.

'Hah, he finally realized he'd missed one important detail. Even you get it wrong sometimes, don't you?' Wain said inwardly, looking at Sven.

'Agh... I'm sorry. I just lost my temper..." Sven shook his head, while his aura was quickly calming down.

"Sven... What the hell was that...?" Arden muttered in confusion. He needed answers because for a moment Sven was angry and it was really scary.

"We have one big problem, or rather me, Marlis, and Osvald." Sven said calmly, but his tone was annoyed.

Marlis gave him a questioning look.

"Thanks to Arden we can get Crystal Mind Dew, but... We'll have to give it to Olax, or we'll be exposed, won't we?" Sven said coldly, staring intently at Marlis.

Marlis's pupils narrowed as she realized that despite their best efforts they were in a desperate situation.

If they passed Crystal Mind Dew to Olax, it would get Arox and then the Great War would be a real disaster. This was exactly what Sven was trying to avoid.

"Wait... In that case, what should we do...?" Osvald muttered with a confused expression, "We can't leave Crystal Mind Dew here since then Olax will understand everything, neither can we take it away since then our whole plan will become meaningless..."

Sven took a deep breath as he crossed his arms over his chest, "Well... This is definitely a shitty situation. We need to figure something out right away."

Arden stood back. He didn't know what to say or do, as this whole situation had gone completely in the wrong direction.

For several minutes Sven, Marlis, and Osvald were silent. Marlis had a few ideas, but they were all immediately canceled as Crystal Mind Dew was too special a resource.

"Hmmm... Will they really have to give up this time?" Wain pondered looking at Sven's complicated face, "Looks like they just don't have any other option, right?"

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Suddenly space shuddered, and a huge purple magic circle appeared amidst the blue sky, which still had bits of gold in it.

Everyone was wary, as this usually happened when space was attacked, but, then, everyone's eyes went wide.

Together with the magic circle, right in the sky, opened a massive gate that led to one of the most powerful worlds in Dragon World.
