Nameless King

Felix accepted Wain's gift with as much gratitude as he was capable of. Because of the events that had occurred, Felix had slightly forgotten who Wain really was, but he understood that it was pure energy from the Nameless King himself, especially for him.

'Agh... I thought I would have to steal from other zones for many more years before I found something that could help me break through to the next stage... Well, today is definitely a fateful day for me.' Felix inwardly muttered looking at the disappearing dark orb inside the water dome.

pαпdα-ňᴏνê|·сóМ "So... It's time to go back, right?" Reto asked as he looked around Felix's treasure trove, "Damn... How are we going to carry all this?"

"I don't know, there are many ways, we won't be the ones doing it anyway. I'm sure Elegan can handle it, given his abilities or Sarras will have to make his skeletons become movers for a while, they're not used to it..." Wain muttered with pity for the skeletons who definitely weren't doing what they were supposed to be doing.

Whooooooooooooooosh.

Wain waved his hand, about to open a spatial rift, but nothing happened, space just shuddered.

"What the hell...?" Wain was puzzled. He tried a few more times but was unsuccessful.

"Hah, looks like your skill with space isn't at all as good as your fighting skills." Felix grinned as he snapped his fingers.

Several streams of water headed toward them and turned into a sphere, the same one they'd been through before.

"Damn... Do we really have to do this again?" Wain sighed heavily realizing that this was inevitable.

Felix nodded and silently headed forward. Wain and Reto looked at each other as they prepared to feel as if they were in the middle of a whirlpool again.

The water sphere began to spin, gradually moving them into open space from where they easily returned to their zone.

They spent less than an hour in the open space, but that was enough time for the war to have already advanced to its logical conclusion, as most battles had already come to an end.

"Well, well, it looks like it's going to take us quite a while to get things in order." Wain smirked as he looked around his Void with an excited expression.

There had been hundreds of localized battles among the monsters in each area. The stronger the monsters were, the greater the destruction, ranging from cracks in the ground to craters the size of hills.

The only place that wasn't damaged in any way was the ice island whose defenders were Elegan.

Bam. Bam. Bam.

Dozens of laser projectiles rained down on the island every few seconds, but they were all blocked by an impenetrable barrier. The Constructs knew they couldn't damage the ice island and it didn't make much sense, but it kept Elegan in one place.

"You don't seem at all upset that the entire Void has become a battlefield. It will take days or even weeks as well as hundreds of monsters with the earth or water attribute to return the territories to their former appearance." Reto said calmly, he didn't see it as much of a problem.

"Well... It's not that much, in fact, it's even a little romantic." Wain said with a slight smile.

"Hmm... What are you talking about?" Felix was puzzled as he and Reto looked at him strangely.

Wain silently summoned Gladius and swung his sword, leaving a small cut on his palm from which trickles of blood flowed.

"Look, all this destruction is as massive as the cut on my palm, all it takes to make it go away is a little time as well as medical attention." Wain spoke when the cut was almost healed.

Wain looked out across the snowy desert, then his gaze headed toward the misty lands.

"However... Unlike simple cuts, scars remain forever. Each scar is more than just a painful sensation, it is the memory of a battle that was cruel enough to make you remember it for the rest of your life." Wain said seriously as he watched Nicole fight.

"There will be two scars left after this war, and right now, we can see how they are created."

...

Bam. Bam. Bam.

Nicole continued to fight Gaur furiously. Their fight was slowly coming to an end as they both used their the Form.

"Hah, weren't you the one who said you'd never use your Form against me!" Nicole exclaimed with a mad grin.

Gaur snorted, "You're hardly standing on your feet. Maybe you turned out a little stronger than I thought, but you can't fight forever."

Nicole's body was covered with many cuts and almost all of her pale skin was covered in dark blood, some of which had already dried.

'Nicole... I know you're willing to fight him for all eternity, but I'm afraid unlike your fighting spirits your body has limits...' Erder said excitedly.

Nicole didn't answer anything, but the smile on her face grew smaller, Erder was probably the only one who could have any effect on Nicole during the fight.

'I'll be honest, your opponent's condition is much better. His body is stronger, his regeneration is faster, and he has received fewer wounds.' Erder muttered seriously.

'Shit... Are you even on my side?' Nicole frowned.

Whooooooooooooosh.

Gaur appeared in front of her, raining his sickle on her. Nicole's eyes went wide as she managed to block at the last moment, but immediately received a blow to the stomach that knocked her dozens of meters back.

With her back, Nicole shattered several ruins before stopping.

'Sure. I just want us to win, even though you're losing to him in every way, there's something in which your situation is much better.' Erder nodded calmly not paying attention to what Nicole was going on, she had destroyed a hundred ruins with her back during this fight.

'In what way?' Nicole inwardly exclaimed as she stood up and swung with a scythe.

From the blade flew a powerful energy projectile that made Gaur retreat, though he was about to strike Nicole again.

'In energy. You have so much more of it. Erder said slowly as if he had a plan.
