Nameless King

'Fine, I was finally able to get it.' Virion said inwardly with a confident look while walking slowly toward Wain.

Virion missed several of Wain's blows, but his wounds were nothing compared to Wain's ones. A powerful lightning bolt literally fried him from the inside as dark blood flowed from a wide cut on his chest.

'Hmm... His condition is pretty bad, but he definitely has more trumps. He still hasn't used his Beyond and the Form... By the way, what is his Form? Even in the fight against Reidar, he didn't activate it.' Virion wondered as he stopped and stared at Wain with an ice-cold look, 'I must take this chance and inflict as many wounds on him as possible.'

Crackle.

Electric shocks went through Virion's sword as he prepared to attack.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

At the same time, Wain's aura grew as the red half of his hair began to move slightly, exuding a strong smell of blood. His wounds began to regenerate faster as the bleeding stopped completely.

'Regeneration...? What the fuck?! I didn't even know he could do that! How many powers does that bastard have?' Virion inwardly exclaimed with his eyes wide open.

Crackle.

Wain's fingers tensed, squeezing the ground hard and leaving streaks on it while slowly rising from the ground.

'You only have a fraction of the regeneration I can give you, so... If you get hurt like that again I won't be able to help you anymore. That was one shot.' Black Sun Aristocrat said in a serious voice as Wain's hair came back to normal.

'Sure. I understand that. He actually managed to trick me, but blood isn't a bad thing at all, because it can be used as a weapon, can't it? Wain muttered inwardly as if he were addressing someone.

'Hah, with that attitude you certainly won't lose. The fourth has completed his task, now it's my turn.' The Knight of the Bloody Rose spoke in a confident voice, 'Use everything you've got at once. You've lost a lot of blood, so we have to make him feel the same pain.

Wain shook his head, stretching, and with a slight sigh said, "Yeah... That was damn nasty. I've got to get my revenge, haven't I?"

Virion was shocked for a while as he couldn't believe that Wain even without the use of a Beyond was able to return to combat after such serious wounds.

"Your sword is unique, it's true, but judging by your surprised look you haven't gathered enough information about me. You don't know all my skills, not all the weapons I can use." Wain said in a careless manner with a calm look before waving his hand.

The red coat, gloves, and cane turned to darkness, disappearing into the void as his hair began to change its color to scarlet just like his eyes. In place of the darkness, a multitude of rose petals appeared beside him, transforming into two massive wings.

He wore no armor whatsoever and his torso was bare on which appeared several tattoos in the form of spiky vines with rosebuds.

"What kind of power is this...? Is this your Form...?" Virion muttered while in confusion as he took a step back.

"The Form? Hah, of course not, it's just a power that'll get you in a hell of a lot of trouble." Wain grinned as he extended his hand forward.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The space in front of him warped as a massive wooden spear appeared in his hand, looking like a thorn from a giant rose.

"A wooden spear...? Hahaha, you seem to have too much faith in yourself! Even if that spear is Legendary too, it's definitely not as strong as my sword! I'll just burn it!" Virion exclaimed with an excited look before swinging his sword.

The sword began to split apart as a powerful stream of white flame headed across it with the tip aimed at Wain.

Wain knew that this attack could do him terrible damage, but he did not attempt to dodge. Instead, he stared at Virion with a slight smile on his face with a mocking gaze.

Whooooooooosh.

The blood headed toward the spear, soaking into it and filling it with power. Then, Wain stepped forward as his wings flapped.

"Fire against wood, right? Well, there are always exceptions to the rules in this world." Wain whispered as a devious smile formed on his face. At the same time, the tip of his spear collided with the last link of the flaming sword.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The shockwaves, white and scarlet, moved tens of meters away as the flames began to try to engulf the spear as though it felt the tree was an easy target.

'Damn, his power is as arrogant as he is.' Knight of the Bloody Rose muttered while shaking his head, 'Well, show him it's nothing to us.'

'Whatever you say.' Wain smirked as his eyes sparkled.

Blood rushed powerfully from the spear, pushing the fire away as Wain ducked slightly. His wings drew back for a mighty swing as he stepped forward at the same time.

Whooooooooooooosh.

Wain turned into a scarlet flash as if lightning had flashed forward, through the sword, destroying it as many links flew sideways, stuck in the stone walls.

Virion's body trembled as his heart clenched with fear. He saw Wain rushing toward him like death, but could do nothing as it happened faster than a single heartbeat.

"Last time your blood was frozen, but now... Now everything around you will be in it!" Wain exclaimed with a furious look as he appeared directly in front of Virion.

Wain's deadly gaze literally pierced him, while the tip of the spear reached Virion's chest as drops of blood gushed out. At the same time, Virion's pupils narrowed and energy shot toward his ring, making it glow brightly.

Powerful flames erupted from the ring, slightly reducing the damage, but the spear had already reached the bones, putting incredible pressure on them.
