Nameless King

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

A fireball of red lightning exploded next to the hill, then a massive monster with huge paws jumped high up and grabbed a Construct who launched this attack at him.

"Roooooaaaaaaarrrrr!!!" The monster growled belligerently and threw Construct to the ground with all his might, causing him to crash into it.

Construct's eyes went wide as a stream of blood gushed from his mouth.

He tried to get up quickly, and continue fighting, but the monster wasted not a second as its paws like two hammers came down on Construct, bringing him terrible pain.

"Roooooaaaaaaaarrrrrr!!!" The monster roared at Construct covering his face with saliva before slamming into his palms.

Ding. Ding. Ding.

From the clap, there was a shockwave that sent shivers through the air. Then, out of the ground came stone spikes that came crashing down on Construct.

"NO!!!" Construct exclaimed with a terrified expression, trying to escape, but it was too late.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

The stone spikes pierced his body, practically tearing it apart. Construct's eyes went blank as a blue soul flew from his body.

The monster smirked, tossed Construct along with his soul into his mouth, and simply swallowed him. A satisfied grin appeared on the monster's face, and then he moved on, straight into more battles.

"Wow, that was cool!" Felix exclaimed with a dazed look.

"Yeah, that monster did a good job. There are thousands of monsters equal to this one in strength in this Void, so the enemies don't stand a chance. Attacking us was the greatest mistake they ever made." Reto smirked.

"Damn... now I understand why you are so calm... This monster is on the Fourth Chronicle as well as his opponent, but victory was so easy..." Felix muttered as his eyes went wide.

Felix watched the Beastfolks and Constructs monsters fight for a while. He was amazed that he had never seen such a large-scale battle so easy for either side.

"Well, I think you'll still have time to enjoy the battles that will take place in this space in the future, right now we have a few other issues to work out." Wain said with a slight smile.

Felix turned to him with an attentive look.

"Felix, I'm glad you joined us, you were able to find a breach and sneak into the area, if not for Reto you actually could have gone unnoticed." Wain said calmly, then his gaze became serious, "However, that doesn't change the fact that you did. If it wasn't for Reto, you'd be an intruder we'd destroy, I hope you understand that."

Wain spoke without threat, in a measured voice, but Felix was slightly startled as he realized that Wain was right.

"I fully admit my guilt." Felix said seriously as his eyes filled with courage, "What will be your decision?"

Wain and Reto looked at each other since he hadn't expected Felix to change and adapt to his new role so quickly.

"Hah, Felix, you're one hell of a quick thinker. Well, maybe that's what made you a good thief." Wain smirked as he waved his hand, "Look, I'm not going to punish you, that's not my style at all, we'll do things differently."

Felix gave him a questioning look.

Wain pointed at Reto, "I understand you have your own private vault, or rather this is your space, I overheard a little of your conversation, no offense."

Felix nodded, "Do you want me to give something away? If so, I'm ready! Even if I have to give you half of my treasure, it's worth it to be a member of your team! You Nameless King!"

Wain shook his head, "I don't want your treasure, or rather I'm not going to take what you have except one thing. You invaded Reto's territory because you wanted to steal something, so I want Reto to pick any one thing from your treasury. That will be enough to make us even."

"I like that idea." Reto smirked, already imagining taking the rarest and most unique item from Felix.

Felix flinched slightly but quickly came to his senses, as it was so much better than all the options he had imagined.

"Fine, I agree. That's fair." Felix said with clenched fists.

"In that case, let's go right now." Wain waved his hand.

"What...? Do you want me to open a spatial rift right now? You're in the middle of a war with two Voids!" Felix exclaimed in disbelief.

"Hah, don't be ridiculous, I'm not going to participate in this battle, our opponents are too weak. My territorial leaders can easily deal with this little problem, don't you get that already?" Wain grinned as if Felix were saying ridiculous things.

Felix was puzzled, he didn't know what to answer and decided to look around.

His eyes went wide from what he saw as he saw hundreds of corpses of Beastfolks, Constructs, and monsters with their Voids in every territory, however, Wain's defeated warriors were very few.

"Damn... sometimes I think too long." Felix shook his head with an uncertain smile, "This is the Void of the Nameless King... obviously the monsters here are going to be incredibly strong."

Felix took a deep breath, waved his hand, and opened a rift in space. Out came a dark, cold mist that slowly enveloped Felix's body, as if inviting him back.

"How interesting. This is the first time I've ever seen the World of Darkness interact so tightly with someone, it's unusual." Wain muttered with a thoughtful expression.

"Yeah... I don't know exactly when it started, but every day it gets easier for me to move between spaces. Maybe it's just that I do it too often." Felix shrugged as an innocent smile appeared on his face.

"Gradually I've gotten better as a thief and I'm spending more and more time not in spaces but specifically between spaces since I spend quite a bit of time finding the right target." Felix scratched the back of his head as he slightly bragged.
