Nameless King

When the guards saw the wounded Wain, one of them ran up to him and bowed respectfully. He was the commander of the guards at this entrance.

"Mr. Wain!" The man said excitedly.

'Oh, it seems Gisle has decided to tell some people about me. It's even for the best, though.' Thought Wain.

Wain nodded and calmly said, 'Take me to Gisle. I need medicine in large quantities."

The guard nodded. He could see that Wain was seriously wounded. His entire body was covered in scars and deep wounds. Moreover, the black cloak was soaked with dried blood in many places.

He knew that Wain was one of the strongest men in their organization, so the guard was horrified by Wain's condition.

"Open the gate!" The sentinel said loudly and pulled a walkie-talkie out of his pocket. He said something loudly, relaying information about the present situation.

Wain went forward and snapped his finger. The dark sword disintegrated into many pieces.

When he stepped inside, he saw an amazing picture. Each of the towers looked like new. Moreover, the area behind the stone wall looked as good as the most elite areas before the apocalypse.

'I see. It looks like Gisle got lucky and found some people with useful craft souls. Without them, this place would have gradually collapsed.'

Wain didn't know where to go, so he just sat down on a nearby bench.

He slipped his hand under his cloak and pulled out a black pack of cigarettes along with an engraved lighter. Wain held the blue cigarette up to the scarlet flame and exhaled a massive puff of smoke a second later.

The cloud of smoke gradually turned into a wreath of olive branch that hovered over Wain.

"You know you can't smoke in here?" Suddenly a voice came from behind him.

Wain turned around and saw a tall girl in a white robe. She had blond hair, brightly painted lips, and lush forms.

"Who are you, baby?" Wain said smiling, bringing a cigarette to his mouth.

"Isabella Gyuin, I have been informed that there is a person at the south gate with particularly severe wounds." Calmly replied the girl.

"You decided to come here yourself?" Smirking, Wain said, blowing out a cloud of smoke.

Isabella shrugged, "I had to. I don't know who you are, but it was a personal order from Mr. Gisle. At this point, his words are equal to God's command. Who are you?"

"I am human, and that is the most important thing," Wain said quietly, blowing out a puff of smoke.

"Well, you look like you hit your head pretty hard, too. Well, come with me. I'll fix you up in no time." Isabella uttered and headed for the nurse's station.

When the white pillar of energy pierced the clouds and the monsters from the sky began to invade, thousands of people were injured.

So Gisle decided to devote time to establishing an infirmary as soon as possible. Among the Black Pearl members were several people who had previously worked in hospitals.

There was also some equipment in the organization's warehouse. Thanks to this, many people could stay alive and quickly heal their wounds.

Isabella was in charge of this infirmary, so Gisle had to personally give her orders to come over to Wain.

Wain nodded and headed after her. He put out his cigarette and tossed it aside.

"Isabella, were you previously a member of Black Pearl?" Wain asked.

The girl shook her head, "No, I was a member of a weaker organization. But when Gisle came here and took over the area, I got a chance to join Last Light. I got pretty lucky and got a lot of promotions in a couple of days. I'm head of the local infirmary."

"You've got a capital job waiting for you," Wain said with a smirk.

"Don't worry. I'll heal your wounds quickly. You'll be able to fight again in an hour. It's no problem, I assure you." Isabella said seriously.

"Overconfidence can lead to problems," Wain muttered.

Isabella said nothing in reply.

...

A few minutes later, they entered Isabella's private office. It was like an elite medical ward. There was the latest equipment, all sorts of instruments, first-aid kits filled with medicine.

"Get undressed and lie down," Isabella said calmly, pointing to the operating table.

Wain nodded and quickly took off all his clothes.

When Isabella saw the condition of Wain's body under his clothes, she was shocked. There were numerous cuts, severe burns, massive bruises, and various other injuries. Much of his body was drenched in blood.

Isabella sighed and muttered, "How are you still alive? It looks as if you've come back from hell, walking up the flaming stairs."

"You're not far from the truth." With a shrug, Wain said.

"I take it your internal organs are just as badly damaged, and you have several broken bones?" Isabella asked.

Wain nodded, "Come on, surprise me."

He lay down on the operating table.

"Honestly, I didn't think your wounds were that serious, but I can fix you anyway. Don't move and watch." Isabella said confidently, and her aura began to intensify.

Blue energy began to emanate from her body, which accumulated at one point and turned into a needle with a long thread. Above her also appeared the silhouette of a vessel with a snake wrapped around it.

Isabella's eyes shone brightly like two blue stars.

"I warn you, this is going to hurt." She said as she approached Wain.

"Stop talking and start."

Isabella nodded and plunged the needle into Wain's right arm. First, she wanted to heal the minor scratches and burns and then move on to the more serious wounds. Wain's condition was stable, so she didn't need to hurry.

When the needle pierced the skin, Wain felt intense pain but a pleasant sensation along with it. Then Isabella began to speed up and pierce his arm in many places.

After a few seconds, Isabella pushed the needle deeply into the flesh, and the needle glowed brightly. Then the blue thread came in motion and pierced all the places Isabella had previously marked.

"Try not to scream." Said Isabella and pulled the needle with force.

The blue thread shone brightly, and Wain felt a hellish pain. His flesh clenched, and he felt as if his flesh was being torn apart. Wain even clenched his teeth.

After a few seconds, however, he felt a pleasant sensation. His flesh was fusing, and his wounds began to heal rapidly. Wain's right arm was completely healed.

Sigh.

Suddenly Isabella began to breathe deeply, and her hands trembled. She was surprised, for this was the first time such a thing had happened to her.

"What is happening...?" Isabella muttered puzzledly.

Her hands were trembling, not from fear but from overexertion.

"Why did it take so much energy to heal one of your hands that I got unwell myself? I'm definitely exhausted." Isabella said shocked, looking at Wain.

"I told you not to be overconfident. Your skills are impressive. I'm sure you don't spend more than thirty percent of your strength to fully heal another person. However, that only applies to those of the Primary Chronicle." Wain said calmly.

"What? You mean you've evolved?" Isabella asked surprised.

"Yes." Briefly replied Wain. "When can you continue?"

Isabella took a deep breath and said, "Let me rest for ten minutes. Otherwise, your healing will cost me my life."

"Of course."

...

An hour later, Isabella had almost wholly healed Wain. She had one last session left to do, and Wain would be fully healed. During this time, Isabella rested several times. This was her hardest experience yet.

Click.

The door to her office opened, and Gisle stepped inside.

"I see I got here just in time." Said Gisle looking at Wain.

"Mr. Gisle!" Isabella exclaimed and immediately got up from her chair.

She was the head of the infirmary and had useful skills, but Isabella understood that compared to Gisle, she was nothing. Moreover, she treasured her position and was willing to do any order from the organization's head.

"Hey Wain, I see you've been pretty banged up over the past ten days."

Wain touched his arm to his shoulder, stretched, and said, "Yes, it's been a dangerous journey, but I don't regret it."

He was surprised that Gisle said ten days rather than two or three, but he didn't show it.

'Ten days, I probably lost track of time when I was in the strange space with the dial.' Thought Wain. That was the only explanation for this situation.

"Isabella, have you cured Wain yet?" Asked Gisle.

"No. But, I'm doing my best. There's just one more treatment left to be done." Quickly the girl replied.

"How are things going?" Asked Wain.

"Not bad. I'd even say it's going well. Zero, Teresa, Agnes, and the others have left the main bases of Last Light for the time being. They are traveling through our territories, exploring the area, looking for Dungeons and Nests, and getting stronger. Also, some of them have gone down into the canyons. There's still a lot of untapped places out there." Gisle replied.

Wain nodded, "What about the Fire Goblins? How is Elsa doing with her duties?"

"She's doing great. As far as I know, she's already rebuilt most of the temporary bases and is building new ones. The Fire Goblins make equipment out of improvised materials and equip people with them. Too bad the healing lava plant is on the east side. There is Isabella, though." Pronounced Gisle.

"Yes, however, I see you have found many useful people in the north." Proclaimed Wain was looking at Isabella.

She had already rested and began to treat Wain. She didn't have much strength, but it was enough for one last time.

'This man is on such good terms with Mr. Gisle and the other strongest members of the organization?! Damn! I should have behaved more respectfully with him!' pronounced Isabella to herself.

"What do you plan to do next?" Asked Gisle.

Wain smirked and said, "I'll head west. I'm sure there are other parts of the map there."
