Nameless King

Wain thought long and hard about meeting the conditions for evolution and came to certain conclusions.

"Haden was Rank-A and had Ascendant Rating Souls. Maybe someone with Rank-S or higher has Legendary Rating Souls. I need to fight in more dangerous arenas, but that's the easiest of the three conditions. Break the line between life and death... What could that mean?"

Wain didn't even begin to think about fulfilling the third condition. It seemed something impossible to him at the moment.

He didn't understand how it was possible to die a hundred times. It was a riddle he had no answer to.

"Okay, I'll deal with that later. Right now, I have more possible and doable things to do."

Wain opened the enhancement menu.

[Black Thunder's Renegade (Primary Chronicle, Epic Rating)

[It is possible to develop a Soul if the following conditions are met -

[Need a First Chronicle Rare Rating Soul with darkness attribute: 10/10. Need a First Chronicle Rare Rating Soul with lightning attribute: 10/10]

'Great, now I have a lot of different souls. Maybe now I can improve all the skills.' Wain thought.

[Do you want to use the necessary materials to upgrade Chronicle Soul - Black Thunder's Renegade?]

"Sure, I've been waiting for this for a long time."

The next moment, eleven souls flew out of his body. Ten of them were blue, and one was pink. They slowly merged and transformed into one. Wain watched this process intently finally, his additional soul would be stronger.

Whoooooosh.

The souls became one, and the pink soul flew into Wain's body and his Soul Altar. The color remained the same, but the size and energy increased manifold.

Wain's body exploded with black electric shocks, and his eyes flashed with lightning.

[Soul of Forsaken Wanderer became your additional soul.]

[Forsaken Wanderer (First Chronicle, Epic Rating)

You have become a lonely wanderer whom the world has chosen to reject. It was a fate no one would want to have. It was like some unfulfilled nightmare.

Your soul was saved from self-destruction by the sight of darkness and thunder. You felt a kindred and genuine connection to these elements.

As you watched the thunder clouds violently destroying forests and fields away from the world, you saw yourself. You are lonely and strong, but can you be called a loner if you are together with darkness and thunder?

*Your attack speed is increased by 30%, your movement speed is increased by 20%.

*Your damage from lightning and darkness is increased by 25%. All your damage is increased by 17%.

*Under thunderstorms, all bonuses are multiplied by 1.5x, all stats are increased by 10%].

[The Fall of Thunder Eye skill has been destroyed]

[The Three Wanderer Steps skill has been created.]

[Three Wanderer Steps (First Chronicle Active Skill, Epic Rating)

With the power of black thunder, you can significantly enhance your weapons. After using the skill, three pearl-sized electrical spheres appear on your weapon. Each of them harbors a large amount of energy.

The next time you strike, one of the spheres will activate and boost the power of your strike a hundred times.

Even though it takes a lot of energy to use the skill and only three spheres are created, this skill has astounding firepower].

"Delightful..." Wain muttered.

Wain didn't check the skill he received, he had to do something else before that.

Wain still had hundreds of different souls with which to improve his skills. He had enough Rare Rating and Epic Rating souls for that.

However, there was one problem, Wain didn't yet know how to get an Essence from souls, and he decided to learn it now.

'Sven said you can get Essence from just about anything, but the most effective options are energy filled materials or souls.' Thought Wain looking at the white soul floating in the air.

It took him several days to get an Essence from energy crystals. He even had to resort to a rather cunning method. Wain was sure it would go more smoothly for him now.

"Okay, let's get started."

Snap.

Wain shattered his soul and tried to remember what he felt while extracting an Essence from the crystal.

To Wain's surprise, he succeeded, and Essence was practically formed. He made a mistake in the end, but these results were astonishing.

"Just as I thought, it was even easier than I had imagined. It looks like I'm going to be stronger today, not just because of the stats, but because of the superior skills."

...

Eventually, after a few hours, Wain created the necessary amount of Essence. Luckily the elves had everything they needed, but that was no luck.

Wain killed hundreds of elves and gained almost two thousand souls. He got a decent reward and valuable souls for it.

"Okay, it's time to get to the fun part."

Wain opened the menu of skill improvements and selected the first of them.

[Storm Gloves (First Chronicle, Epic Rating)

[Sign of Lightning in Storm Gloves can be developed if the following conditions are met-

[First Chronicle Epic Rating Soul with lightning attribute: 2/2. Fifteen units of First Rank Essence with lightning attribute: 15/15]

[Do you want to use the necessary materials to gain the Storm Gloves skill?]

'Yes.'

Whooooooosh.

The next moment one blue symbol and two pink souls flew out of his body along with fifteen blue spheres. As before, they merged into one, and a pink symbol flew into Wain's body.

A wind appeared on his arms and then slowly dissipated. Wain nodded and moved on to the next skill. He felt he would become several times stronger today.

[Shattered Part (First Chronicle Active Skill, Rare Rating)

[Dark Sword in Shattered Part can be developed under the following conditions.

[Required First Chronicle Rare Rating Whole Soul with darkness attribute: 1/1. Seven units of First Rank Essence with darkness attribute: 7/7.]

[Do you want to use the necessary materials to gain the Shattered Part skill?]

'Yes.'

The process repeated itself. Wain lost souls and essences but gained a powerful skill, which will become a formidable weapon together with Forgotten Monarch's Sword.

"Two more to go... This time I will touch magic and find out what it is." Wain muttered.

[Magic Missile (First Chronicle Active Skill, Epic Rating)

[Distant Bullet can be upgraded to Magic Missile under the following conditions.

[Need a First Chronicle Epic Rating Soul with neutral attribute: 1/1. Ten First Rank Essence with neutral attribute: 10/10.]

[Do you want to use the necessary materials to gain the Distant Bullet skill?]

'Yes.'

...

Wain then moved on to the last skill he could improve, but the way was unusual. To improve the previous skills, he needed souls and Essences, but in this case, he was combining two passive skills into one.

[Flaming Healing Threads (First Chronicle, Heroic Rating)

[Combine Heat Resistant Flesh and Flaming Healing Threads into one skill if the following conditions are met-

[Requires a First Chronicle Heroic Rating Soul with fire attribute: 1/1. Required a First Chronicle Epic Rating Soul with illusory attribute: 1/1. Fifteen units of First Rank Essence with fire attribute: 15/15. Ten units of First Rank Essence of illusory attribute: 10/10]

[Want to use the necessary materials to combine the two skills and gain Flaming Healing Threads?]

'Yes.'

Ghost Healing Threads was an excellent healing skill that greatly accelerated regeneration. Now this skill was even better and gave a good defense against fire.

Wain still had one more skill he could improve, but it needed something special.

[Caretaker of Symbols (First Chronicle, Rare Rating)

What are the most interesting books? The ones with some mystery hidden in them. Right?

???]

[It is possible to develop the skill if the following conditions are met-.

[You must read a thousand books: 0/1000]

"Eh, I wonder why this particular skill has such strange conditions and unknown effects? Originally this skill just increased my reading speed. Perhaps it proves that with some development, even a weak skill can become something unique."

Wain wanted to put his new skills to the test, and to do so, he went to a spacious cave where he could not hold back.

First, Wain decided to use Storm Gloves. He concentrated, and a moving wind appeared on his hands, which looked like a whirlwind. It gradually transformed into gloves that covered his hands up to his elbows.

Then several strands of wind spread all over his body and slowly disappeared. Wain felt that he became much faster, it was as if he had become a raging wind.

Wain looked at his palm and then clenched his fist. He struck a powerful and swift blow at one point, and the whole cave shook. His attack left a massive crater in the wall with a funnel-shaped pattern on it.

This was the main power of Storm Gloves. When Wain struck, the wind accelerated and turned into a vortex-like pattern.

Such an attack would tear the enemy's flesh like a meat grinder. Despite its beauty and romanticism, the wind can be cruel and dangerous.

"Hmm, how about this?" Proclaimed Wain and twisted his arm the other way.

He took a step back and struck the palm of his hand. It was like a movement from some martial art.

Tremble.

The blow was much more powerful and whirled through half a meter of ice.

However, along with chunks of ice, crimson drops of blood fell to the ground. This skill was dangerous, and Wain made a mistake. He could not hold the power of the wind and be wounded.

"It hurts, but it's a pleasant pain. It's nice to know that I can do something like this at will. This power I've gained by killing hundreds before."

Wain canceled the skill and decided to use Magic Missile. The description of this skill was pretty simple. It was a beam of energy with a piercing ability. Magic Missile could be compared to an armor-piercing projectile, only intangible.

He stretched his hand forward, and a large amount of energy gathered at the tip of his finger.

Then his eyes sparkled, and the energy turned into a white beam that pierced several meters of ice. There were no cracks in the wall, and the cave didn't shake, but no creature could block it.

"Okay, now it's time to get to the fun part."

The Ring of Damned glowed brightly, and a platinum sword appeared in Wain's hands. Then he used the Shattered Part.

On his other hand, a dark sword of 90% energy appeared. This skill could be used to fight, but it wasn't a fighting skill. It was an auxiliary skill.

Wain put the dark sword on Forgotten Monarch's Sword, merging it into one.

The dark sword turned into a dark thread that enveloped the blade of the platinum sword. The closer it was to the edge, the thinner the threads became.

A small amount of dark energy emanated from the threads, and when Wain swung the Forgotten Monarch's Sword, there was a plume in the air for a short time. It was a beautiful and destructive skill.

Wain sharply plunged the sword into the ice, and there was an explosion of darkness. It was powerful enough to turn solid ice into shards, and Wain could repeat it repeatedly as long as he had energy.

After that blow, several dark threads disappeared from the sword blade, which was a kind of indicator of the number of possible blows.

Whoooosh.

The darkness disappeared as Wain canceled the skill. Now he decided to test how powerful Three Wanderer Steps would be.

He concentrated and gathered energy on the sword. It turned into three black electric spheres. They were small, but they sounded like a real storm was about to hit.

Wain gripped the sword tightly with both hands and took a deep breath. Then he lowered the sword sharply, and one of the spheres exploded. It turned into energy that moved to the sword blade.

Thus, a powerful wave of darkness and lightning energy was created after the impact. More than ten meters of ice was destroyed and turned into dust, and the place of the cut was like a canyon.
