Nameless King

When Mimic explained what Elves and Vampires looked like, Wain was finally convinced that his homeworld and the new one were connected to the World of Darkness.

Perhaps the World of Darkness had decided to destroy his world for some reason, or it was the decision of some powerful being. Wain could not know the answer to that question.

However, he was content to learn a little more about the universe he lived in. Also, another goal appeared on his to-do list. Of course, Wain understood that it would take him an enormous amount of time to find the answer, but he was ready for it.

"Okay, I get the point about names and blood purity, but I have one more question. You can't give yourself a name without going through Awareness, but you can have a nickname. Right?" Wain asked.

Mimic nodded, "Yeah, that's not a problem. A nickname has no power, so I can think of any."

"Do you have one? So I can refer to you in some way." Wain asked.

"Hmm, I'll have to think about it. I want to be some auctioneer and aristocrat in one person and some mystical person. How about Black Rabbit?" Mimic asked.

"You? Black Rabbit? AHAHAHAHA, that's pretty funny, but it probably works for you. Okay, I'll refer to you that way." Said Wain.

Wain realized that Black Rabbit was a useful character during their conversation. When Black Rabbit told him much about races, blood purity, and the nature of monsters, Wain decided that he would take Mimic back to the Void. He was sure it was the right decision.

"Now you know my newly invented nickname, but what is your name?"

"Wain Norheim."

"Yeah, you're very lucky. Not only do you have a name, but it's also so good..." Mimic said with annoyance in his voice.

"Don't worry, considering you can talk. You're already closer than anyone else to getting a Name."

Black Rabbit nodded.

"Wain, I want to talk to you about something else. This is where our acquaintance began. I know quite a bit, but I've only heard once about what humans are and what they look like. At first, I thought you were an Elf or Vampire or other anthropomorphic race, but your aura differed.

It is unlike anything else, it is as if you exist, but at the same time, you don't. Your aura is like an invisible piece of paper. It is there, but it is empty, and to most, it does not exist. It's a very strange feeling, it's like I was looking into an abyss."

"Quite an eloquent description. Yes, I am. Do you have any questions for me?"

"Of course, I would like to know more about you and your race. I may not know about all the existing races, but only because some races are too small and weak. No one wants them, and no one is interested in talking about them or hearing about them.

However, humans are different. It is almost impossible to find information about you, but not because you are weak or small. You are covered by a secret veil through which it is impossible to see. I am curious to know more about you." Black Rabbit said with anticipation.

"Huh, that's funny, because I'd like to know more about us, too. I'm not lying to you. I know a little more than the others. We live in the same land as the others, we fight, create conflicts, and evolve all the time. What's more, I've only met other races twice before, and I don't know what they wanted from me." Said Wain.

He could have told Black Rabbit about the planet he lived on, the apocalypse, and the monsters, but he didn't see the need. It was useless information that would only increase the Black Rabbit's interest in him. Wain thought it might have been problematic, so he decided not to go into it.

"Damn, and I thought I was about to hear a long and cryptic story that would answer all my questions..." Mimic muttered regretfully.

Wain shrugged, "Unfortunately not this time. I need to understand myself more first. Then I can share this information with someone."

Mimic nodded and took one last sip finishing his cup of tea. Then he pulled some cookies out of his chest and began to eat them slowly.

"Do you have any special powers for keeping things? Every time you put your hand in your mouth, it gets covered in a dark shell, as a portal appears." Said Wain.

"Yeah, something like that, it's a feature of strong and clever Mimics. Not all of them, of course, but some are as capable of it as I am. In time, I'll be able to accommodate a lot more things than I do now."

"You're considered strong?"

"That's obvious. Sure, I'm weaker than you, but I'm pretty strong compared to other First Chronicle creatures. Few can stand up to me on equal footing." Black Rabbit said proudly.

"Okay, it's time to get out of here." Said Wain.

"You're leaving already?! All right, we had a nice chat. I hope we'll see each other again sometime." Mimic said with sadness in his voice.

"Hmm? You're not staying here. You're coming with me." Said Wain.

"What?! Where?!"

"А? Didn't I tell you I own one pretty good Void?" With a slight smile on his face, Wain said.

"What?!"

"Why are you so surprised? You say you're pretty strong. I can easily take over a weak Void. At least I've already managed it twice in a row. It wasn't hard." Said Wain.

Wain understood that he would fight more dangerous Voids in the future, and it would be real life-or-death wars, but for now, it was pretty easy. The only surprise was the appearance of the Purple Pilgrim, but even with this foe, Wain was able to cope.

"Yes, but capturing Void is quite difficult. I'm amazed, and am I really allowed to go with you?" Black Rabbit asked.

"Sure. Just don't get in the way. I need to concentrate, there must be a spatial rift somewhere."

Mimic nodded.

Unfortunately, there was no spatial rift in the main hall. Wain had to walk with Mimic halfway through the Dungeon before feeling the energy fluctuations.

'Good thing my second rank Seal of Darkness, the spatial rift is about sixty meters away. Under other circumstances, I never would have found this passageway.' Thought Wain looking into the golden wall.

The Ring of Damned shone brightly, and the Forgotten Monarch's Sword appeared in Wain's hands. He decided to cut his way forward and thus reach the spatial rift.

Spatial rips could be anywhere, in open terrain, in a wall, or even in the air several kilometers high.

Whoooosh.

Wain swung his sword and easily cut through the golden brick wall that had previously seemed invulnerable. He continued to walk forward and make his way. Mimic walked slowly behind Wain.

'This sword is incredible. With every swing, I feel incredible power, I feel like I can chop anything.' Thought Wain looking at the platinum sword.

"That's quite a weapon you have." Said Mimic.

"Yeah, I had to kill everyone in this Dungeon for that, including your fellow Mimics." Wain calmly said.

He did not consider whether his words might hurt Black Rabbit, who was also a Mimic. Anyway, he didn't care about it. Wain seldom cared about other people's feelings, which was characteristic of rude and straightforward people.

"I don't know them, so it's not a big deal. I just wanted to rest, so I fell asleep for a few months. During that time, more than a hundred Mimics showed up from somewhere. I have no idea what happened." Scratching the back of his head, Black Rabbit said.

'Hmm, Sven said that Dungeon appeared because of a large accumulation of Soul Essence in one place. But I suppose it's also possible that territory came from some little Void to this world.

Maybe the Void was destroyed, and it was a response from the World of Darkness? Or is the excess of Soul Essence in some territory to blame? Or am I rambling now, and this is all my speculation?' Wain thought.

Step. Step. Step.

Mimic followed Wain, and the sound of his footsteps echoed for dozens of yards around. His claws were sharp enough to easily cut through the walls of the temple, which he did out of boredom. It took Wain a long time to carve sixty meters of gold.

Despite Black Rabbit's manner, he looked quite formidable. He was two and a half meters tall, the teeth in his mouth were sharper than any blade, and his arms and legs possessed incredible strength. Mimic wasn't lying when he said he was stronger than most First Chronicle creatures.

Crackle.

After a while, Wain finally reached his target. Part of the wall turned to ink, and he and Mimic stepped inside.

As before, there was a door to Sven's bar, an inky door with many eyes, as well as a massive ice gate. However, this time they were slightly different. There was snow on them now and some sand underneath.

"There's your new home." Said Wain as he approached the gate.

"Looks pretty good. I hope the monsters here don't disappoint me." Mimic muttered.

"Don't worry, they have a great leader, and I'm not talking about me. We've already won one war, and this is just the beginning of our winning ways." Said Wain and opened the ice gate.

Wain gave Mimic permission to enter, and they entered Frozen Land together.

"I was away for a short time., but this place has managed to transform." Wain muttered.

After crossing through the gate, he found himself in the main hall where energy crystals were pit. In this place, Wain fought an ice wyvern, after which he became the owner of this Void.

"Hmm, perhaps I should consider building a real main hall instead of calling the pit with crystals like that. Then that's what I'll do today." Mumbled Wain.

"There are so many crystals here..." Mumbled Black Rabbit.

"Yeah, my guys did a pretty good job. It's times more than I expected. However, the growth rate of all the resources in this Void has recently been increased, so it shouldn't be surprising."

The pit was completely filled with crystals. Wain didn't know how many were there, but at least several hundred were there.

Crackling.

Suddenly there was a thunderous sound from the left. Wain turned around and saw the Ice Knight walking in his direction.

Wain smiled, but the Ice Knight, on the contrary, became wary. The monster felt the threat coming from Mimic. The Ice Knight immediately adopted a battle stance, and his ice blade glittered, he was ready to attack at any moment.

"Take it easy. He's our new friend." Wain said slowly, pointing at Black Rabbit.

By then, a great number of monsters had approached them. They stared intently at Wain and Mimic from the caves. Some were aggressive toward Mimic, some were just curious to see what would happen next.

Suddenly, Black Rabbit waved his hand and said, "Hello everybody, nice to meet you."

It was the usual greeting, but all the monsters were stunned at that moment. They didn't know how to react to a monster who could talk. It was something incredible to them.

"You shouldn't be so surprised, I don't know why, but he can talk. It's his unique ability." Wain explained the situation.

After a while, the monsters nodded. Some ran away, they wanted to comprehend what had happened, but some came up to Black Rabbit and tried to talk to him.

Of course, the monsters understood each other without words, but this was a new experience.

Black Rabbit was very talkative, and so he chatted with the monsters for over an hour. He talked to them about all sorts of topics, but mostly it was nonsense.

"Ice Knight, good job." Said Wain pointing to the energy crystals.

The monster nodded.

"Wain!" Black Rabbit said loudly.

"What is it?"

"I see crystals are growing in these caves, and you've mined quite a few of them."

"Yes, that's right." Wain said calmly.

"I have a suggestion for you. I can increase the amount of energy in these crystals by 5%." Said Black Rabbit.

"Are you serious?" Wain asked in disbelief.

"Of course." Mimic nodded his head. "It's pretty easy, but 5% is my maximum. I'm not capable of more than that."

"I see. How will you do it, and how long will it take you?"

"It's simple. I need to move all these crystals into myself, not eat them. There is a large amount of energy hidden in my body, and because of that, the crystals will become a little more effective.

Considering the total amount, it will take me about ten hours. Then I'll put all the crystals back in place." Said Black Rabbit.

Wain thought about it, it was a good suggestion, but he couldn't entirely trust Black Rabbit yet.

'Maybe he wants to eat them all? No, that's nonsense. If he does, he'll surely die. There are over a thousand First Chronicle creatures and an Ice Knight besides me. He doesn't stand a chance in battle.'

"Okay, I agree."
