Nameless King

"You can try to get out of here, but all that awaits you is pain." The Skeleton in the dark armor said in a calm voice as he snapped his fingers.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

Bones flew out from under the sand and quickly became skeletons. Their auras were powerful and menacing, just as their eyes were like red lanterns.

"Hey, didn't we just kill them?" Light Racer asked as he tilted his head in a thoughtful manner.

"Yeah... You're right." The Dark Silhouette nodded, and his aura intensified, "So you're a necromancer, are you? However, it's not enough to kill us!"

"Necromancer? Huh, it looks like you're new here." The Skeleton said as he touched his chin, "You can't die in this place. There is no such thing as death here, so you are here forever."

"Hmm? Is that possible?" Lith Racer's eyes widened.

"Let's check it out." The Dark Silhouette said as he touched Light Racer's head.

"What are you do...?" Light Racer exclaimed, but before he could finish his sentence, a gray jaw bit off his head.

The skeletons looked at the Dark Silhouette with their mouths open as they all thought of one thing, 'Aren't you friends?! Why did you do this to him?!

Whooooooooosh.

The Light Racer's neck glowed brightly as his head returned to its place. There were no scars, no cuts, as if nothing had happened.

"Motherfucker! The fuck did you do that?!" Light Racer exclaimed with an angry look as he grabbed Dark Silhouette by the collar.

"Come on, did that hurt you? I made it as quick as I could." Dark Silhouette said in a careless manner.

"No, but what if that damn Skeleton tricked us? I would have died then!"

"Well, that would be unpleasant." Dark Silhouette shrugged, "However, now we may not hold back. Isn't that a success? I had to risk someone, so you were the only option."

Light Racer's face twisted with anger, but he did not fight Dark Silhouette as he understood that his actions were logical, though brutal.

"Freak! I bet you have no friends!" Light Racer threw Dark Silhouette to the ground.

Dark Silhouette slowly stood up, shook off the sand, and said, "Actually, I have a few. Would you like to be one of them?"

"Well, are you trying to kill all your friends?"

"No. Just you." Dark Silhouette smirked.

"Oh, I'm fucking flattered." Light Racer shook his head in a disgruntled manner, "Let's get started already. I gotta get this thing and get out of here as soon as possible."

Whoooooooooosh.

The Light Racer turned into a flash of light that headed for the geyser. Several Time Guardians tried to stop it, but the momentum threw them aside as they even could not approach the Light Racer.

"Ah, so that's your goal." The Skeleton in the dark armor muttered, "Well, do you really think you're the only one trying to absorb Ether? Well, you can try if you want, I won't stop you."

Skeleton waved as the other Time Guardians stepped aside. They literally cleared the way for the Light Racer right to the geyser with Ether.

"Huh, idiots!" Light Racer exclaimed as he approached the geyser, but suddenly he began to slow down.

With each step, his speed became less while the light shell gradually dissipated, then he was unable to take the last step, even though he was so close to Ether.

"What the hell?!" Light Racer uttered with a confused look, "No, that's impossible!"

Light Racer tensed, veins bulged on his body, and his eyes bled, but no matter how hard he tried, he didn't budge, as there was an invisible barrier in front of him.

"Damn... I thought he was fast enough..." Dark Silhouette muttered.

"Hmm? It looks like you knew about Ether's special properties, didn't you?" Skeleton asked.

"Yeah." Dark Silhouette nodded.

"What's going on here? Why can't I touch it?" Light Racer exclaimed while in disbelief.

"Ether is not subject to time and space, and in this zone, time plays no great role. You can be here for a hundred years, but in the outside world, only one second will pass, so even though Ether is right in front of you in fact, it is not here, not literally, but you can never get to it." The Skeleton muttered while shaking his hand.

The Light Racer turned around, looked at him, and with a puzzled look, said, "You definitely don't need to work as a teacher, your explain super shitty."

"Well, even I don't fully understand that energy. Anyway, it's time to end our pleasant conversation as, from the looks of it, you're not going to leave here, so I have no other option but to throw you out." Skeleton said before extending his arm forward.

Tremble.

Space trembled as a black sword with a serrated blade appeared before him, from which dark, eerie energy emanated.

"Though you cannot die, I can easily make you experience the most terrible pain of your life." The Skeleton uttered as he gripped his sword tightly and swung it.

Out of the sword came ghosts that looked like wild beasts. They pounced on Dark Silhouette and Light Racer with ferocity.

"Damn... That looks dangerous." Light Racer said while looking at the ghosts with a careless look before turning into a beam of light.

Light Racer appeared behind Dark Silhouette and said, "How about taking care of it for your new friend?"

"Huh, whatever." Dark Silhouette grinned, shrugged, and waved his hand.

Several jaws appeared in front of him that turned into phantom piranhas with vicious looks and sharp teeth.

"Go!" The Dark Silhouette commanded as the piranhas pounced on the ghosts.

They tore the ghosts apart without pity and then headed for the Time Guardians that stood around them. The piranhas grinded their bones with their jaws like crushers, so only the Skeleton in dark armor remained in the fortress after a while.

"Maybe we can't kill you, but what about the fear of such a terrible fate?" The Dark Silhouette grinned wickedly.
