Nameless King

When the sky began to shatter, and monsters began to fall down, Gisle was one of the first to come to his senses and understand the situation.

"Everyone, get ready for battle! Also, do not stop moving towards the main base of Black Pearl. We will take the main battle there, along with the forces of the northern part of the city." Gisle said loudly, and a layer of blue energy appeared on his katana.

While Wain infiltrated Black Pearl's base and fought Luar, Gisle managed to find out quite a bit about the organization and was already ready to attack. Suddenly, however, an unpredictable disaster occurred.

...

Bam.

The first monster of the hundreds fell on the skyscraper's roof where Wain and Luar were. This monster looked like the spawn of hell. It had hooves, black fur, sharp claws on its front paws, and purple horns on its head.

The look of this monster was not aggressive. That was the wrong word to describe this condition. It was more like the monster was utterly distraught and nothing more than a bloodthirsty madman.

The monster looked at Wain and ran swiftly in his direction. The monster was relatively fast, and only a strong enough person could react to its attack. However, Wain was in a completely different league.

Whoosh.

Wain stepped forward with a disdainful stare and delivered a crushing kick. The monster's head flew off his shoulders like a ball and flew a few meters away.

"Not bad. That's your real power." Luar said with a slight smile on his face.

"Don't relax. This was only the beginning. This monster is nothing more than a drop in the ocean that we now have to fight." Proclaimed Wain, and his aura began to intensify.

He could have run to help Gisle and fought there, but Wain saw no need. The situation was the same everywhere. They needed to kill monsters at every point in the city to completely eliminate this threat.

Luar nodded, and golden energy appeared around his hands, transforming into golden claws. They were like unusual gloves, reaching up to his elbows.

"You're not going to use your Beyond?" Wain asked.

He expected Luar to use all his power at once and not leave any trump cards for later. This was not the right situation for hiding his true power.

Luar shook his head, "I don't have the energy for that at the moment. It took a tremendous amount of power to heal me. I didn't know how to use Beyond before, but I don't have a problem with that now. However, I need some time to build up my strength."

"I see," Wain replied briefly, and a silhouette of death with a bloody scythe appeared above him.

[You have activated the Title - Mentor Inquisitor.]

Wain's aura was terrifying. He looked like a reaper, leaving rivers of blood behind him. But Wain wasn't going to stop there. He knew the situation was serious and used everything he had.

Whooosh.

His hair and cloak rose up as if from a strong wind current, and then his hair began to lengthen and recolor into white. Then the black and white armor appeared on Wain and the plasma sword in his hand.

Wain was serious. He didn't use the Cursed Swordsman because he would have turned part of the city into icy ruins if he did.

'Holy shit... If I hadn't used the amulet then, it would have turned me into mincemeat in a few seconds...' Thought to himself, Luar marveled at Wain's strength.

Then Wain raised his right hand up toward the monsters, and a white soul appeared in his other hand. He inserted the soul into the cell on the white glove, and then Soul Essence condensed into a powerful energy beam.

This beam pierced more than ten monsters and killed them simultaneously. Wain smirked as he watched ten souls fly in his direction.

Bam. Bam. Bam.

The next moment, more than ten monsters fell to the skyscraper's roof. They attacked Wain and Luar, but the monsters had no chance of winning. Luar cut them mercilessly with his claws, and Wain turned the monsters into chunks of ice with smooth swings of his sword.

Wain stepped forward and looked down.

"It's a living hell." Said Luar looking at the hundreds of monsters tearing dozens of people apart.

"Yes... But, if this is hell, then we need a devil to control all this chaos." Wain said coldly, and black, electric discharges began to accumulate at his hand.

He was about to use Oblivion Thunder, but suddenly in the distance, he saw a large number of monsters attacking a building that looked like a store.

Then a plan appeared in Wain's mind as to how he could quickly deal with many monsters.

'There's no point in using Oblivion Thunder now. It's a debilitating skill. I should make the most of it.' Thought Wain and then ripped off his breastplate.

He decided to reveal his cloak to take advantage of the special effect of his gear.

Wain concentrated, and then black energy began to emanate from the cloak. At the same time, Wain took a step forward, thereby jumping off the skyscraper. He thrust his sword into the building, slowing his fall slightly.

When he landed, hundreds of monsters turned their attention to him. They were insane and acted purely on instinct.

Numerous monsters even stopped attacking their victims and ran toward Wain. The energy emanating from the cloak attracted them like a magnet.

Wain grinned and ran toward the store. He was going to gather many monsters in one spot and used Oblivion Thunder.

People were surprised that the monsters suddenly ran after Wain, but it saved their lives. They immediately started looking for shelter and an opportunity to heal their wounds.

By then, most of the monsters had already fallen from the sky, and many cracks in the sky had already been repaired. However, there were still about 10% of them left, from which some pretty powerful monsters occasionally came out.

They were much stronger than the ones Wain killed on the skyscraper roof.

Whooosh.

Wain jumped over the half-destroyed stone wall and left Black Pearl's territory. Dozens of monsters continued to run after him, Wain's plan working perfectly.

'Good, they're fast enough to keep up with me when I run at half speed. Across a few districts is a sector with ruined buildings. It's the perfect place to kill thousands of monsters with one powerful attack.' Thought Wain as he ran outside the store.

Like the last time the monsters spotted Wain, they immediately attacked him. What worked against them was that they were too bloodthirsty. There was no feeling in them, only thirst to a massacre.

Thanks to Wain's actions, many people had a chance to have a little respite. Suddenly the invasion of the monsters was unexpected for every human without exception.

Most people were not prepared for battle, even if they wanted to repel the attack.

Whoooosh.

Wain ran through another street, and more than a thousand monsters followed him like a black river. There were so many that they filled the entire space.

"Was that Wain?" Gisle said puzzled as he watched the monsters they had just fought run after the wave.

"Everybody out of here! Now!" Gisle commanded.

Wain had never used Oblivion Thunder before Gisle, but he had received a report from his scouts earlier. They had described the consequences of Wain's one attack on the Sea Punishers' base in detail.

It was a power incomparable to anything, capable of turning high-rise buildings into nothing.

Within minutes, there were roughly two thousand monsters behind Wain. By then, he had reached the right place.

Wain smirked, and lightning boots appeared on his feet. First, he had to get far enough from the monsters to use Oblivion Thunder. Otherwise, he could have been hindered and even seriously injured.

Wain understood that his enemies were weak, but there were about two thousand of them at this point. He wasn't arrogant enough to think he could kill them all with a sword.

Whooosh.

He turned into blue lightning and traveled more than thirty meters in a few moments. Then black, electric shocks appeared on his arm.

Wain turned around and grinned, "I can't even think of an easier way to earn souls than that!"

Crackle.

He clenched his fist, and clouds of rumbling lightning instantly appeared over the horde of monsters. A moment later, a massive black column of thunder descended upon the monsters. It was a mighty and devastating attack.

Several buildings were instantly destroyed and turned to dust. A shockwave spread out to the sides, spreading for dozens of meters around.

The monsters didn't have time to react or defend themselves in any way. It was impossible in their situation. They were too weak and insignificant to resist such force.

The people who saw this attack were stunned. Wain's strength stunned them. They didn't think a human was capable of such a thing.

Instead of destroyed houses, there was a huge crater several meters deep in front of Wain. There was practically nothing left of the monsters except for a few blood stains and remnants of flesh.

Wain smiled as he watched two thousand souls fly in his direction. He had never before received so many souls at once until this moment. It was a personal record for him.

Hundreds of souls swirled around him like a snow-white vortex. Then in an instant, they entered Wain's body.

Then Wain saw an interesting message in front of him.
