Nameless King

"Ohohoho, it looks like things are getting more dangerous. His energy is so intense that I think you can feel it with a touch." Gael said with a slight smile on his face as he crossed his arms.

"Hmm... Damn, Wain actually has his power, I'm fully convinced of that now as his aura has changed slightly... but does it have to be?" Alucard uttered while in confusion as he tilted his head.

"What do you mean?" Gael asked with a thoughtful expression.

"Is the heir of the Nameless King supposed to have these powers? It's rather odd, isn't it?" Alucard asked as he raised an eyebrow.

"Hah, we'll never know. I was surprised as hell when I found out that Nameless King actually has an heir. I couldn't believe it, but right now I'm watching him fight, so in this world anything is possible." Gael said as a slight smile appeared on his face.

Alucard nodded slightly while staring intently at Wain. Unlike most of the rest of the audience, he knew quite well what Nameless King was capable of, as he had even fought him a few times.

'This power is incredible...' Wain inwardly muttered as he looked at his palm, 'I feel that with a simple swing I can create an entire world, but I have to check something first.'

Whoooooooooosh.

Wain swung his hand as two dark guards rapped on the Wizard. Wain created the guards back when Virion ghosted the roots, but in the end, he didn't need them since he just cut them apart.

Wizard stared at Wain the whole time, but now he had to turn his attention to the two creatures running in his direction. Once close enough, the guards swung their weapons in an effort to cut Wizard.

Crackle.

The Wizard just swung with staff as the guards' swords collided with it. Normally mages were weak physically, and though their staffs possessed mighty strength they could not withstand the massive and sharp swords of warriors, that was the general rule.

However, the Wizard easily blocked an attack from two guards that were twice his size. Wizard's hand did not even tremble as if he felt no pressure at all.

Click.

The Wizard snapped his fingers as the azure orb on his staff glinted brightly. A massive stream of blue energy erupted from it. The flow simply destroyed the guards as their massive shields and sturdy armor failed to protect them.

'I see... It is fast, strong, and possesses an enormous amount of energy. It makes no sense for me to fight to exhaustion because even if I win I will surely lose too much strength. I need something else...' Wain inwardly muttered while rubbing his chin in a thoughtful manner.

'Hey, Wain, do you remember our last fight? Knight of the Bloody Rose suddenly asked with a slight smile on his face.

Wain thought for a moment as he remembered when he fought the two Arkans in the Dragon Ridge.

'Yeah... That was one hell of a fight, but in the end, I managed to win...' Wain uttered.

'Well, I think we can do the same thing now. This Wizard's attacks are definitely strong, you've already succeeded in that and the seventh has already given you all his energy, so you need to use it somehow.' Knight of the Bloody Rose said in a calm voice.

Even though Wain was in combat Knight of the Bloody Rose intervened in it, as if he wasn't afraid that Wizard might suddenly attack Wain.

'Damn... I only just realized that he did that trick again... I must admit it's quite a useful skill...' Wain said to himself as he realized he couldn't turn his head. His mind was faster than his body again and the world seemed frozen.

'Even if this Wizard is very strong he shouldn't have too good a defense, so if you do it right you can finish this fight in one successful attack.' Knight of the Bloody Rose said with a slight smile on his face.

'Agh!' Suddenly Wain's felt a severe headache.

'Well, that seems to be the limit. I won't be able to use this trick anymore, this is the last time. Good luck, just trust your instincts and use some imagination.' Knight of the Bloody Rose uttered before completely disappearing.

Whoooooooooosh.

At the same moment, the world began to speed up as the Wizard slowly swung his staff, preparing to attack. Wain only had a few seconds to figure out what to do or he would have to dodge Wizard's attack again.

'Knight of the Bloody Rose is right, this might work, but I need to find a way to use this huge amount of energy.' Wain muttered inwardly as he tried to think of something.

Many thoughts popped into his head as he could summon a powerful being or create an entire meteorite to bring it down on the Wizard, but he didn't feel that was what he really wanted.

'Right...' Wain's eyes went wide as he recalled the memory of the Light Racer, or rather how Nameless King fought against the Time Guardians then, 'Abyss Artist's power is almost limitless in its flexibility, while his power has boundless power... That attack... Damn, I definitely want to do it, but in my own way!

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

All the energy that Wain had from the Abyss Artist suddenly erupted from his body as dark streams of energy filled everything around him.

'Hey, I'm going to have to tense you up again, you don't mind, do you? I'm sure you'll like it.' Wain asked as he glanced at the sword in his hand.

'Hah, sure. Though I don't know what's about to happen, I can tell by the look in your eyes that it's going to be something special.' Gladius grinned as the jaws on his blade disappeared as well as the eye.

Wain pointed his sword at the Wizard and at his will, all streams of darkness headed toward Gladius, filling it with an indescribable amount of energy.
