Nameless King

"So... What are you going to do now?" Ceozi asked as she popped a few pills into her mouth.

"Well... That's a good question." Wain smiled, ran his finger over the anvil, and sat down on it, "I actually have to meet my friends since I haven't seen them in a long time, but right now, all I can think about is battles."

"Huh, are you really that influenced by the gear I created?" Ceozi smirked before rising.

Wain didn't answer as he just smiled, but to Ceozi, it was the best answer.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Suddenly the cave shuddered as small stones with dust sprinkled from above.

"What's going on? Is someone fighting near the mountain?" Wain muttered with a confused look as he looked up.

"No! Special artifacts are set up around the cave that scares monsters away from this place, so... someone attacked us personally!" Ceozi exclaimed, unleashed her aura, and prepared to fight.

Crackle.

The ceiling shattered into two massive slabs as two shadows with frightening auras flew inside. Completely ignoring Ceozi, they instantly attacked Wain.

Wain raised his arms above him as though shield and blocked the attack as the ground beneath his feet cracked.

"Who are you, bastards?" Wain muttered with an ice-cold look as he counterattacked.

His hands, covered in darkness, turned into a blur and slammed into the attackers' stomachs. The impact threw them to the other side of the cave, but they quickly regained their balance with a leap away from the walls.

The woman and the man stared at wain with menacing looks. The man had short black hair, gray eyes, and a muscular body that was covered by a leather cape. The woman had long red hair, black eyes, and red, light armor with shining crystals.

"Nameless... Today your journey ends here. This cave will be your grave." The man said in a calm voice as though it had already been decided.

"Huh, Dan, you always say everything at once." The woman smirked.

"Amelia... We just have to get it over with as soon as possible, for everyone's good, or else there could be another disaster." Dan uttered while icy waves of energy emanated from him.

'Hmm? Do they know my nickname? Do they want to fight me? But... aren't the rules of the Colosseum allow 2 vs 1 battles?' Wain internally muttered while in disbelief, 'Wait... what the fuck is that...?

Wain's eyes widened as he saw the star-shaped tattoos on the man's chest.

"You... How did you find me?" Wain uttered as a powerful stream of aura burst out of him that literally filled the entire space.

"What's going on here?! Why the fuck did you break into my forge!" Ceozi exclaimed with a furious look, grabbed the hammer, and lit it with a bright red flame.

"Huh, Nameless, you trapped yourself." Amelia waved her hand with a devious look on her face, "By coming here, you gave us the opportunity to attack you! That it!"

'Wain, be careful.' Gladius said, 'The Dragons won't help you this time, since one of them died here, so they don't come in, it's their tradition.

'I see, though I can handle them myself now. They're in the Fourth Chronicle, so I have every chance of winning.' Wain muttered to himself before looking at Ceozi.

'Ceozi, get out of here, you can't defeat them. I'll take care of everything." Wain uttered as his coat quivered.

"Huh? Are you kidding me? Maybe I'm a blacksmith, but I can get a couple of trespassers out of here. Damn, they're not even members of the Pillars, it'll be easy." Ceozi smirked as she threw the hammer at Dan.

The hammer, with a fiery plume, struck the man as though a meteor that, along the way, made the stone melt and boil.

Whooooosh.

Amelia stood in front of Dan, extended her arm, and with a careless look, stopped the hammer.

"What...? How is it possible...?" Ceozi muttered while in disbelief.

"Demon, I'm giving you one last chance to get out of here." Amelia threw to Ceozi, "We don't need you. However, if you get in our way, we have no choice but to kill you."

'Wain... You can fight the two of them, but I think it's better for you to share strength. You still have something... You should use it.' Blind Sorcerer suddenly said.

'Yeah. You're right.' Wain nodded.

In Wain's hands appeared a gray book and a dark writing pen that he received as a gift from the Royal Spirit in the Forgotten Forest.

"Hmm? What is that?" Amelia frowned.

"Ceozi, you may not be able to handle them alone, but I will help you." Wain said before waving with a pen.

He wrote a few lines in the air that turned into a huge knight of darkness with bulky armor and a massive sword. The knight's eyes lit up as though green torches as he stood in a battle stance.

At the same time, Wain opened the book, and two of his clones appeared beside the knight. Their auras were not stable, but they were dangerous.

"You think some illusions can stop us? This is ridiculous!" Amelia exclaimed as she attacked.

With a wave of her hand, she created a windblade that rushed towards the knights of darkness, but the first knight just sliced it in two.

"Good. Ceozi, you take this weirdo, I'll deal with that pesky bitch for now!" Wain exclaimed before turning into a dark flash.

He appeared before Amelia with a powerful punch of his fist that was covered in darkness.

Amelia's pupils narrowed as she bent over, letting the blow pass over her.

Bam.

A stream of darkness obliterated part of the cave behind her, turning it into a dilapidated passageway to the outside.

'What? Did he use a skill so quickly? No... it was just a punch...' Amelia muttered as she turned her head.

Crackle.

Wain's second fist smashed into her face, and the impact threw Amelia outside the cave with the stone slabs shattered by her back.
