Nameless King

"What have you done?!" Blackwing angrily exclaimed, unleashing a black lightning bolt at Wain.

Wain raised his head, looked at the lightning bolt, and waved his hand. Several jaws appeared next to the lightning and in a heartbeat tore it apart, leaving behind only a few electric shocks.

"I did what I wanted. I don't have to answer you. The only credit to the Dragons is your attack on me in your world, though... there are good men among you, but it certainly doesn't concern you." Wain muttered memories of Kadridas, without whose help he might not have been able to reach his current point.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Massive streams of energy burst out of Redwing and Whitewing, quickly taking the form of pillars that reached the heavens. The amount of their energy was terrifying even for Lands of the Gods since meeting a Dragon who was furious was the worst nightmare for anyone.

"Nicole, this will be your first fight against the Dragons. I will take on two, you will be left with only one. Which one do you want to fight?" Wain asked pointing at the dragons with a calm look.

Before that Nicole had been tense since the Dragons' auras had put considerable pressure on her, but as soon as things turned to battle she felt immediately better. It was a circumstance in which she could only fight and she loved it, as the wide grin on her face said.

"This one." Nicole pointed her hand at Redwing, who summoned powerful streams of red flame around her.

"Oh, girl against girl, right? I'd watch that, but I'd have to deal with these two first." Wain looked at Whitewing and Blackwing, who were already ready to attack.

"Wain Norheim... You're too confident in yourself..." Blackwing said with an angry grimace, "I didn't want to fight you, but you just left us no choice!"

Step. Step. Step.

Wain slowly stepped forward making the ground shake as powerful streams of darkness came out with each step he took.

"Oh... Do you really think you have any chance against me? You Dragons are too self-righteous for someone who naturally gets an abnormal amount of energy." Wain said calmly, but Blackwing could easily sense the contempt in his voice.

"You're too arrogant..." Whitewing spoke in a deep voice, "You may be a Nameless King, but right now you're just a human on the Absolute Stage who decided to challenge the Dragons."

Whoooooooooosh.

At the same moment, Whitewing lunged forward. Even though he seemed large and heavy, he moved unnaturally fast, reaching Wain instantly and bringing his massive fist down on him.

Wain seemed to notice nothing as his gaze did not even move, but suddenly Whitewing's fist was stopped by Wain's palm and a shockwave formed behind him. The impulse destroyed rocks and left many cracks in the ground, but Wain himself was not hurt in any way.

"Not bad. You used so much energy for this attack that a monster on the Demigod Stage would have died by now, but do you really think that's enough for me? You can't even scratch me with an attack like that." Wain squeezed Whitewing's hand tighter as a bone crunch was heard before he stepped forward.

Cracking.

Wain's fist, like a black flash, stabbed into Whitewing's stomach, causing the scales of that one to curl inward.

"ARGH!!!" Whitewing vomited a mouthful of blood while waves of pain went through his entire body, then the impact threw him back hundreds of feet.

Whitewing opened his broad wings to slow down somehow, but it didn't help him much as he punched through several rocks with his back before stopping.

"What the hell...? How is that possible? Why are you so strong?!" Blackwing's eyes went wide as a chill ran down his back.

"Hmm? Am I strong? Compared to how powerful I was 500 years ago, that's not even 10%. I advise you to use your Forms right away unless you want this fight to be over in a few seconds." Wain said indifferently with a wave of his hand.

Wain looked at Blackwing and asked, "Before we start. I want to know if you are affiliated with Kadridas?"

"Kadridas...? Why did you decide to talk about him...?" Blackwing frowned with a hard stare, "He's from a different area and reports to a different Elder, so we see each other quite rarely."

"Agh? Kadridas? This guy who pisses me off?" Redwing snorted with an angry grimace, "He's sick of telling everyone how incredible the humans are! He's a Dragon! He shouldn't like any race that much!"

Blackwing wanted to stop her, but it was too late, Redwing had said enough for Wain to understand their position.

"I see... So if I kill you I won't feel bad for Kadridas. I don't mean to upset him, but it's clear to me now." Wain said calmly before rushing forward, instantly finding himself in front of Blackwing.

'Shit!' Blackwing inwardly exclaimed putting his guard out in front of him.

"Slowly." Wain uttered, grabbing Blackwing's head, "You're lucky you're so tough, otherwise I'd crack your head like a nut."

Whooooooooooosh.

Wain threw the Blackwing upward and directed a large amount of darkness into his right hand. As the Blackwing slowed, the darkness turned into a massive spear with a jaw-shaped tip as Wain launched it at the Blackwing.

The spear was like black lightning reaching Blackwing in an instant, causing a devastating explosion of dark energy. A massive cloud covered part of the sky until Blackwing flew out of there, heading straight for the ground.

There were lacerations on his body as if from the teeth of a wild beast and several black feathers fell from his wings followed him.

"No way... Has he lost already...?" Redwing muttered in disbelief as a shiver ran through her body.

"No. If I were at the peak of my powers, he'd be dead by now, but that's not enough now." Wain shook his head with crossed arms, "If I were you, I wouldn't distract from my fight."

"Hmm?" Redwing was puzzled.

Whooooooooosh.

At the same moment, Nicole rushed forward in a dark flash, engaging in her first battle against the Dragon.
