Nameless King

The King didn't understand what was going on, but his loyal servants, the Royal Guard, had already made all the decisions.

Whooooosh.

Six shadows burst from beneath the throne and headed toward Marcus. They were as deadly and swift as blades, but they were not the only ones, as Marcus had his mates that repelled the first attack.

"Now that's what I call good teamwork!" Marcus smirked as a shard of Shadowstone appeared in his hand.

The shard glowed brightly and then turned to ink that covered the entire throne room with an impenetrable barrier. Now even an atomic explosion could have occurred in this place, but the outside of the castle would not have been affected.

"Let's go!" The Knight of the Bloody Rose exclaimed since his sword was covered in blood.

He rushed forward as he rained down many spiky vines on the King, however one Guardsman reacted quickly and instantly chopped up all the vines.

Events unfolded quickly, so the battle split into six sides a few seconds later.

'Huh, Marcus was right, the Guardsmen are actually incredibly strong. What's more, they look so strange, as if they have long since ceased to be human.' Wain inwardly muttered while watching the battle.

The Guardsmen wore dark armor that was covered in ink flowing like a river, and their eyes were purple like Marcus' beasts.

Marcus and the Knight of the Bloody Rose were the strongest, so each of them fought one Guardsman. The other four Guardsmen held Marcus' men and knights back.

"Damn! What's wrong with them? Why don't they care about my attacks?!" Lucian exclaimed as he created several bloody blades that rained down on the fourth Guardsman.

Lucian chose the right moment, so the Guardsman was not able to dodge this attack, however, there was no need as his armor completely absorbed the attack, the blades did not leave even a scratch on him.

"Die!" The Fourth Guardsman said in an ice-cold voice as he swung his sword that created a shadowy blade.

The blade headed toward Lucian, but suddenly Meria created a massive bloody barrier in front of him, so it completely blocked the attack.

"Thank you." Lucian muttered.

"No problem, but, I don't like it. Look, even the boss doesn't do anything. It shouldn't be like this. It's not normal." Meria said while looking at the Knight of the Bloody Rose that fought the First Guardsman.

The Knight of the Bloody Rose did not hold back, the vines and bloody blades attacked the First Guardsman endlessly, so the First Guardsman had to go into a blind defense as he created a barrier of ink. The Guardsman could not attack, but the Knight of the Bloody Rose still did not wound him. It was a battle of attrition.

"Huh, unlike us, the boss opponent is like a turtle hiding in a shell. We should do the same." Lucian grinned.

"Hmmm... Marcus has made some progress too, but I don't like the whole thing at all..." Meria frowned.

Marcus summoned several shadowy beasts that prevented the Second Guardsman from even taking a step to the side, but time was not playing on their side.

Whoooooosh.

Suddenly the main gate opened as several squads of knights ran inside. Ink could absorb any attacks, but you could move freely through it, so the fight went into its second phase.

"Damn... They still haven't defeated any Guardsmen, and already they're being attacked by Knights. Why do I get the feeling that they're about to lose at this rate?" Wain muttered.

"Well, well, they still have one trump card." Light Racer said with a sly smile on his face.

"Hmm? Are you still here?" Wain turned to him as his eyes widened.

"Of course. You should know by now what's going to happen next. This is going to be one powerful, tipping point."

"Don't you think it's kind of unethical to peek at others?" Wain asked.

"Why? I'm just taking advantage of my opportunities. You'll see the memories of all of us anyway. Okay, enough talk, just watch."

The situation became more complicated as the knights appeared, but Marcus was prepared for this development. He was used to thinking ahead, so as soon as the knights burst inside, he threw several spheres into the air.

"Have you come to save your King? Good! Try to do so, but first, you must deal with my pets." Marcus smiled as the ink from the spheres turned into wolves that pounced on the knights.

The beasts tore them apart like mad. Unlike the Knight of the Bloody Rose, Marcus had nothing to do with the knights, so he was ruthless to them.

"Damn. Why are you so robust?!" The Knight of the Bloody Rose exclaimed with a furious voice as he ran up to the First Guardsman.

The Knight of the Bloody Rose grabbed him by the arm, threw him over himself as he threw the Guardsman to the ground, and started beating the Guardsman in the face with his fists as hard as he could.

The ground beneath the First Guardsman cracked from the sheer force of the blows, and in time, splinters began to chip away from his helmet.

"Huh, every defense has a limit, and you are no exception." Knight of the Bloody Rose said with a cold look as he delivered the final blow.

Bam.

The impact shattered the Guardsman's head into tiny pieces. It was so powerful that the entire throne room shook like an earthquake.

"Excellent. The first one is ready." The Knight of the Bloody Rose uttered in a calm voice before heading for the next Guardsman.

The situation was very bad for the King. He could not escape, as any wrong move would result in death. At the same time, the Guardsmen were gradually losing. Once the Knight of the Bloody Rose dealt with the First Guardsman, Marcus realized how it was necessary to fight them, so in a short time, the number of Guardsmen was reduced to four.

"Hahahahaha, King, get ready!" Marcus exclaimed with a mad look, "Soon, you will be beheaded by your strongest knight. You wanted to direct his wrath at us by killing his beloved, but you were too foolish!"

'What?! How does he know that?! So that's why the Knight of the Bloody Rose is on his side! Shit!' The King inwardly shouted, 'Then... I have no other option left...'
