Nameless King

Chapter 166 Purple Pilgrim

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, capturing Voids is the best thing ever!" Proclaimed Wain.

He didn't expect such a series of events to happen because of the invitation of the Cave Trolls to Ice Caves. Wain was able to increase the Rank of his zone, but he also captured another. He became much stronger in less than a few hours. It was some magic to him.

Wain decided to see the status of his new zone right away.

[Snow Desert

Owner: Nameless

Size: Tiny

Chronicle: First

Rank: E ]

'Hmm, nothing surprising, only Rank is different, which makes sense. Should I merge the two zones into one? Wain thought.

He didn't know what would happen after that, so he wasn't sure if it was the right decision.

'Maybe I shouldn't merge the two Voids, it might be a mistake, but I'm too eager to do it.' Wain thought and opened the menu, but he saw an unexpected message there.

[You can't merge two Voids as long as one of them has an improvement of Rank.]

'I see. I have to wait a bit. Moreover, when the improvement of Ice Caves is over, I will have two Rank-E Voids. When I combine them, I'll probably get a lot of different bonuses." Mumbled Wain and looked around.

The battle was over, and all the enemy monsters decided to submit to him. Those who disagreed, Wain had already killed.

He decided to wait until the improvement of Ice Caves was over and, in the meantime, explore the Snow Desert.

This place was as empty and barren as his first Void. There was nothing but tons of sand and snow that covered the massive dunes. It looked quite beautiful, as did the ice caves, but that's not what Wain needed.

The most important thing to him was something of value in the area. It could be ores, resources, plants, or even unique creatures.

Wain walked around the desert for a few minutes but found nothing interesting.

'Hmm, last time, it took about two days for the crystals to start growing. The situation will probably be identical now.' Thought Wain and stepped forward.

The snow creaked beneath him, and the footprints of his bulky boots were left on the sand. Even though this Snow Desert was the smallest size, Wain could not see the limits of the desert.

'Hmm, to a human, a tiny area can be compared a village or even an ordinary neighborhood, but the World of Darkness might have very different standards. Perhaps even Tiny Void is no smaller than a city or an island.' Wain thought.

He had been traveling through the Snow Desert for some time and had moved quite a distance away from the spatial rift. At this time, the Ice Knight took command and was busy integrating new monsters into their group. This was necessary for a prolific collaboration.

Wain stopped, and the Ring of Damned glowed brightly. A pack of cigarettes appeared in his hands, and a few seconds later, he smoked. Wain blew out a blue puff of smoke that floated above him like a cloud. It turned into an image of death, but then a maw appeared behind him that ate that silhouette.

'Sven didn't lie. Every time the cloud of smoke turns into something new. This time it looked like some performance. But, it's too expensive, is there anyone besides me willing to pay one Void Soul for twelve cigarettes?' Wain pondered, exhaling another puff of smoke.

This time it turned into an exclamation point. Wain shrugged and tossed the cigarette aside, deciding to go back.

Tremble.

Suddenly the space began to shake. Wain didn't know what was going on. He thought that another Void had decided to attack Ice Caves, but he didn't see a message about it.

However, the next moment Wain realized what was happening. Many cracks appeared in the sky, shattered into pieces like a mirror.

"Pearl Hunter..." Wain muttered, looking up at the huge creature above.

It looked exactly like the one Wain had fought at the top of the pagoda. The Pearl Hunter had tried to steal Soul Pearl from Wain back then, but he had easily repulsed the attack. This time the same thing happened.

Pearl Hunter was not human or any other anthropomorphic creature. The hunter was like a huge shadow with many arms, one eye, and a creepy mouth. The creature slowly penetrated the Snow Desert and was about to attack Wain.

"Damn, it's strong..." Wain muttered, feeling the aura coming from Pearl Hunter.

Wain wanted to use the third form, Blind Sorcerer. He was sure that Perl Hunter would quickly kill him and every monster in the two Voids if he didn't. It would be a disaster and an absolute failure.

Whooooooosh.

Soul Essence gathered around Wain. Pearl Hunter was about to attack Wain by then, but suddenly, a purple flash appeared in the sky. It also came from beyond the borders of space.

The purple flash struck Perl Hunter's head and crushed it instantly. Simultaneously, a shockwave was created, spreading for dozens of meters around it. A huge crater was created in the place of the fall, and the sand suddenly turned black.

The wind gusts from this attack were so strong that Wain had to cover himself with his arms.

He didn't understand what was happening. Suddenly two unknown creatures burst into the Void, and widespread destruction occurred in less than a few seconds.

When the shockwave weakened, Wain stepped forward. He wanted to see what had just happened.

"What the fuck...?!"

What he saw stunned him. A tall man was standing at the bottom of the crater. Next to him was the corpse of Pearl Hunter with its head blown off. The monster was long dead. It had been killed in just one attack.

The man looked at Wain and muttered, "Nameless, right?"

He was not human. He had coal-black skin, gray eyes, and thick purple hair. He also had several purple tattoos on his chest, the same color as his fingernails.

Wain realized that the man was of some unknown race. He, like Ria, was similar in body structure to a human, but he had significant differences in appearance.

"Yes," Wain answered briefly.

He did not know who this man was, but he understood that the situation was dangerous. A battle could break out at any moment that would lead to irreparable consequences.

"Okay, I have a proposition for you. You give me Soul Pearl, and I won't attack you. How's that for a deal?" Said the man.

Wain frowned. He didn't like it when someone put conditions on him. One of Wain's most important principles was freedom, and so he wasn't going to submit to someone forcibly.

'Who is he?' Wain thought, and to his surprise, an information window immediately appeared before him.

[Purple Pilgrim

Chronicle: First

Voids: 5]

"Purple Pilgrim..." Wain muttered. He hadn't expected to find out information about his enemy so easily.

"Don't be deceived. I let you do it. Now you know my name, or rather my alias. You have one last chance to give me Soul Pearl, in which case you can survive." Pronounced Purple Pilgrim.

"I don't think so. No one dares to order me around." Coldly Wain said, and his aura began to intensify.

There was powerful pressure coming from Purple Pilgrim, but Wain was confident that he could handle such an opponent. Right now, he was quite strong even by First Chronicle creature standards, and he was getting the appropriate bonuses from being in the Snow Desert.

Moreover, Wain still had a lot of strength left since the battle with the Snow Beast was not grueling and hard. Then everything was solved in a few precise attacks and the right decisions.

Purple Pilgrim shrugged his shoulders and calmly said, "It's your choice. If you want to die like a fool, I won't stop you."

Whoooosh.

The next moment Purple Pilgrim jumped toward Wain. He was so strong that a massive crater formed where he stood after the jump. The sand could not withstand such pressure and fell several meters to the bottom.

Bam.

Purple Pilgrim was swift and instantly appeared in front of Wain. He attacked Wain sharply, aiming for the head.

Wain barely had time to react and dodge the attack, then a lightning sign appeared on his chest, and he tried to retreat. Wain did not want to fight at his disadvantage. Purple Pilgrim immediately began to dominate the battlefield, and Wain wanted to break this lousy momentum for him.

However, even though Wain became much faster, Purple Pilgrim had no trouble catching up to him. He turned into a blur and found himself behind Wain.

"What the?!" Wain said in shock and was immediately punched in the face with his fist.

Wain flew back several meters and was partially buried under the sand.

Purple Pilgrim paced slowly in his direction with a strange look on his face. He usually did not look into the appearance of his enemies, but now he realized that he could not determine Wain's race.

"Hey, what race are you from? At first, I thought you were a mudblood elf, but now I see that your ears are different from the pointed ears of elves. Moreover, your skin is not as smooth and slightly darker than theirs. What are you?" Purple Pilgrim asked puzzled.

Unlike Ria, who had long surpassed the First Chronicle, Purple Pilgrim did not know who humans were or their race.

Wain answered nothing. He threw up a mouthful of blood and tried to catch a breath. Even one of Purple Pilgrim's attacks did serious damage to him.

"You don't want to answer? That's your business." Purple Pilgrim said calmly with a shrug.

He knew of many races, but not all. He decided to ask what race Wain was from since he didn't have any distinguishing features. To Purple Pilgrim, Wain's appearance was comparable to a blank piece of paper. There was nothing about him.

However, Purple Pilgrim knew one race whose members Wain was very similar to, but he would already be dead if he were to meet a member of that race. Wain was weak and could not be a member of one of the strongest and most recognized races in the World of Darkness.

Purple Pilgrim was about to attack his enemy again, but suddenly, large energy appeared around Wain.

Whoooosh.

Purple Pilgrim felt Wain's aura increase and considered him a threat. So one of the tattoos on Purple Pilgrim's chest glowed brightly, and his fist became as fast as lightning.

He was about to kill Wain for that punch, but suddenly Wain grinned and turned his head to the left. His fist flew a millimeter from his face, and then a dark bandage appeared over Wain's eyes.

A moment later, Wain was wearing a gray robe, boots, and two strange seals appeared on the backs of his hands.

Wain didn't hesitate and attacked immediately. A massive magic circle appeared in front of him, from which twelve thin beams flew out. They were weaker than a single powerful charge and rather slow, but these beams had a special feature. Wain could control them.

Purple Pilgrim was shocked. He hadn't expected something like this to happen suddenly.

"That's impressive. But, do you really think that's enough to defeat me?" Purple Pilgrim said coldly, and the two tattoos on his chest glowed brightly.

The next moment a purple shell appeared on his arms. He got into a fighting stance and was about to block each ray.

Whoooosh.

However, when Purple Pilgrim tried to do so, the gray beam easily broke the barrier on his left arm. Purple Pilgrim could not believe what he saw. It seemed to him like some delusion.

He was capable and was many times stronger than most of his peers. That's why Purple Pilgrim decided to renounce his family and become a Pearl Hunter. He believed it was the only way he could grasp the true power of this world.

It was a dangerous path despised by many, but Purple Pilgrim believed that the most important thing was strength.

'Only the strong can establish what is right and wrong.' Thought Purple Pilgrim, and two more seals on his chest shone brightly.

Two purple spheres appeared on his back and quickly turned into angel-like wings. Purple Pilgrim flapped them and quickly stepped aside.

He wanted to eliminate the rays chasing him and then think through his next steps.

Crackle.

At the same moment, space gradually began to recover. The sky slowly restored, and the fallen shards returned to their places.

Whooosh.

Wain waved his hand, and nine beams flew for Purple Pilgrim. Despite the blindfold, he could see his enemy's movements perfectly because of the energy fluctuations. Wain grew more accustomed to using the third form with each passing second.

"Shit!" Purple Pilgrim shouted and swung his wings sharply to dodge the rays. He couldn't afford to get seriously wounded, at least now.

Then Purple Pilgrim clenched his right hand into a fist, and the energy sheath turned into a massive shield.

Bam. Bam. Bam.

Nine beams pounded into the shield, but fortunately for Purple Pilgrim, the shield was able to absorb the power of each beam, and then it shattered into many pieces.

Purple Pilgrim flapped his wings sharply, thus creating a small tornado of energy that came down on Wain.

Wain didn't dodge. Instead, he put his hands together, and four magical circles appeared around the tornado. They gradually increased in size and came closer together, as if creating a cage for this natural phenomenon.

Click.

Wain clenched his palms together, and the magical circles turned into barriers that squeezed the energy tornado. It tried to resist, but its power was not enough to do so. Wain easily destroyed such a powerful attack.

When Purple Pilgrim saw this, he realized that Wain was no easy opponent. He had to give his best to win.

Purple Pilgrim doubted whether it was worth continuing this battle, but he cast aside all doubts when he thought of Soul Pearl.

'This thing is worth any effort. It's even worth a genocide!" Purple Pilgrim shouted to himself, and the massive tattoo on his chest shone brightly.

This tattoo was special. It was different from the others. So the next moment, the tip of a spear appeared from Purple Pilgrim's chest.

The weapon slowly slid out of his chest until Purple Pilgrim abruptly pulled the spear out and prepared to fight.
