Nameless King

The dragons weren't the only ones keeping a close eye on Wain's movements, or rather on Nameless King's. When he left his Void, it became easy for others to track exactly where he was, one of those observers being the Arkans.

"Things are really bad, aren't they...?" The man with the seven-pointed star on his chest muttered.

"Well... At least he's not at the peak of his powers right now, otherwise, we'd have a lot more problems." The woman calmly said with a shrug.

She took the wine glass and lowered her gaze to the crystal ball and said, "He's still as cold as ever. I thought there was a chance he might be a different man, but he seems to be the same Nameless King we fought 500 years ago."

"Fought you say... That was the worst day of my life! Then, those three betrayed us!" The man exclaimed furiously, clenching his fists tightly, "If it wasn't for them, we would have definitely won. The Nameless King would not have been able to handle us all! Without him, not even the Dragon Progenitor could have stopped us!"

"Don't worry. We outnumber them anyway. The second ruler...no...our only ruler is preparing for the finale. Apparently, the Nameless King knows how to get his powers back, but what about those seven?" The woman muttered as her eyes sparkled.

"Hah... You're probably right. He doesn't stand a chance." The man grinned with a sly smirk on his face, "He just got back so I doubt he can find as many allies as he did then... None of that matters though, we have an ally he has no chance against. Hahahahahahah!"

...

Crackle.

Wain and Nicole emerged from the portal and they found themselves on the edge of an icy island.

"Agh... It's actually nice here, much better than that oppressive place." Wain took a deep breath as he turned around, glancing around his territories.

"What am I supposed to do with this?" Nicole asked pointing to the corpses of Dragons she had been carrying all the way.

​ "I told you before, didn't I?" Wain raised an eyebrow, "Take them to Edena and Lui Bu, tell them they are a gift from me. They are alchemists, so they will surely find a use for these Dragons, after all, even their bones are treasures with enormous amounts of energy."

"Damn... You say such creepy things so calmly... even it makes me uncomfortable..." Nicole frowned as a chill ran down her back.

"Well, I'm just telling the truth." Wain shrugged.

Nicole nodded, took a step forward, and disappeared in a dark flash, heading toward the lab.

Crackle.

At the same moment, a shadow with a cold aura and a sharp look appeared beside Wain.

"Oh, you recovered rather quickly, didn't you?" Wain smirked, turning to Frigus. His body was still bandaged in some places, but he looked as confident as before.

"Sure. You knew where to attack, right? Edena looked me over, she said that there were many wounds, even too many, but none of them were critical." Frigus nodded with a serious expression.

"Hah, it was a friendly fight. It didn't make any sense for me to wound you seriously. The best wounds are the ones that make you stronger." Wain smiled.

"You're going to do it now, right?" Frigus asked with a hard stare, realizing that the moment had arrived.

Wain nodded, "Yes. In fact, I'm already a little late, but I have to do it before I leave. Someone's been waiting for me for quite some time..." Wain muttered as he remembered Sven.

"I see... In that case, while you're getting ready, I'll gather the others. We should be in position before the protective barrier comes down, shouldn't we?" Frigus's aura intensified as he placed his hand on the hilt of his sword.

"That would be good. Perhaps wars will be quite rare, but it will definitely happen now, it always does." Wain nodded with a slight smile.

Frigus bowed before disappearing without a trace.

'Agh... Though I don't aspire to it, gradually my Void is growing and there are more and more wonderful people in it, but Frigus and Elegan... Without those two there would be nothing here.' Wain muttered inwardly as he headed toward the castle.

...

Elegan was busy doing paperwork as usual. It might have been strange for monsters, but Elegan had long ago realized that it was the most effective way to keep things under control. The text from the pages and the orders, would not be lost, unlike his memory, as he could simply forget something.

Crackle.

The wooden door opened as Wain stepped inside, waving slowly.

"I've only been gone a few hours, but you're already back to work. Do you ever get any rest?" Wain asked with a curious look.

Elegan's eyes went wide for a moment as he had completely forgotten that Wain was supposed to be back so soon, then he smiled bitterly, "Yeah... Although, I can't remember the last time there was a day I could do nothing."

"Hahaha, honestly I have no idea how you manage. Rest is very important to stay productive, you know?" Wain chuckled, "Well, you can put the papers aside. It's your day off today since I'll be working."

Elegan smiled, nodded, and put his pen on the table, then he looked at Wain, "You're going to do it right now, right?"

"Yeah. Tell me where Void's Crystal is? That's pretty weird to hear from a Void owner, but so much has changed around here that I don't even know where the core is now." Wain muttered with an awkward look.

"Hah, you didn't even try to find it, because otherwise you would have felt the crystal was right there." Elegan smirked as he pointed down.

"Agh...?"

"When we built this island I moved the core here, all you have to do is walk through the ice cave. There you can finally make our Void stronger." Elegan narrowed his eyes.
