Nameless King

'Wain... This barrier is dangerous... It easily absorbed your attack as energy swords can easily pass through your coat.' Abyss Artist said in a worried manner.

'Don't worry. I can definitely deal with it, just like before. I'm more worried about what it is?' Wain replied as he stared at the second artifact in Virion's hand.

At his will, the cloud trembled as the blob inside the crystal sphere became completely transparent. At the same time, the artifact disappeared and many small clouds appeared in the arena. They looked like fog, filling everything around them.

'Mist...? Isn't it useless?" Wain inwardly muttered while in confusion as he tilted his head.

Fog might have been a serious problem for any other fighter, but Wain was on a completely different level. Even if he was completely blind, he would be able to navigate energy flows like a Blind Sorcerer, but the simple fog did not hinder him in any way. He could clearly see all of Virion's or Lightning Beast's movements.

"You seem to think that this artifact can't give you any trouble, but didn't you think so about all the previous ones?" Virion said in an arrogant voice as his aura intensified.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Virion stepped forward as electric sparks appeared beside him. The Lightning Beasts stood behind him, about to attack while the mist suddenly began to thicken.

'Hmm? Is he going to fight? Damn, those artifacts made me completely forget that he doesn't always have to control them...' Wain said to himself with a frowned look, 'He must have gathered some energy in this time, so now things are going to get a lot harder.'

'Wain! Look out!' Gladius suddenly exclaimed as the dark sword headed to the right.

Wain instantly turned as he saw the spear rush toward him. It was fast and seemed to have to pierce Wain, but thanks to Gladius' warning he was able to react in time and blocked the attack.

'What the hell?!' Wain inwardly exclaimed with his eyes wide open as he stared at his opponent.

The attacker wasn't a Virion or a lightning beast, it was a mysterious smoky warrior that appeared in front of Wain in an instant, just out of nowhere.

'Wain, it attacked you out of the mist.' Gladius said in a serious voice as his energy increased slightly.

"Yeah... I figured that out already. Two very strange artifacts, separately they can cause serious problems, but together it's a terrible headache..." Wain muttered as his eyes turned icy.

Whoooooooosh.

He swung his sword, splitting the smoky warrior in two as well as the mist behind him, leaving a loose trail of several meters.

The smoke knight dissipated, but he didn't go anywhere as the smoke only moved elsewhere, filling the fog.

'Fuck... The invincible enemy again... Hey, do you have any idea how I can deal with it?' Wain asked turning to someone who seemed to know all the answers.

'Hmm... I still need to think...' Abyss Artist muttered with a multi-valued look, 'You can probably break the barrier with one powerful attack, but you have no way to get rid of that fog...'

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

There was a rumble of lightning as a massive thunderbolt appeared in Virion's hand. He took a step back, ducked slightly, and with an ice-cold look threw the lightning straight at Wain like a spear.

Wain could not quite dodge it, but he had no intention of doing so, for the dark sword was already charging toward the spear with a massive stream of darkness.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Space shuddered as the darkness turned into several massive jaws that pounced on the lightning along with the point of the sword. From their collision there were shock waves, pushing the fog to the boundaries of the dome while electrical discharges left dark burn spots on the ground.

'Hmmm... Not bad, it's definitely a serious attack, but isn't that too weak for Virion?' Wain internally muttered with a calm expression before stepping forward.

Whooooooooooosh.

He swung his sword, slicing Lightning in two, completely destroying it with his creepy jaws. There was nothing left of Virion's attack except a few electric sparks that quickly dissipated.

'Exactly... I'd forgotten that he's not using his Beyond form right now, he's waiting for the right moment to use his final trump card... Hahaha, that means he'll try to conserve as much energy as possible and won't get in my way!' Wain internally exclaimed with an excited look as a devious smile formed on his face.

'Tsk... So he gets it. Damn, is it just me, or does the longer the fight goes on the better he understands what I'm thinking? Virion complained as he bit his lip to blood, 'Well, anyway, the artifacts are just a prelude before the finale, so there's nothing wrong with that.'

Whoooooooooosh.

The two lightning beasts turned into flashes, raining down on Wain with great speed. Their eyes were full of cruelty as their sharp claws, pointed straight at his neck.

"Hey, I've already killed you a few times, how about we end this right now?" Wain said with a slight smile on his face before rushing forward.

Even though Wain was going to attack, he completely removed the darkness from his sword, relying only on Gladius' physical stats.

Whoooooooosh.

The claws of the beasts almost reached their target as Wain's silhouette blurred. He was between them in an instant as several dark flashes appeared around him from his lightning attacks.

Crackle.

The beasts collapsed to the ground as their claws dug into the ground while Wain slowly continued forward without even turning around. Then, many dark streaks appeared on the bodies of the lightning beasts as if someone had given them dozens of cuts in seconds.

"Bye, bye." Wain said while waving his hand in a mocking manner, "Maybe three times would have been enough for me, but I decided to kill you more than ten times at once. I hope that's enough."

Whooooooooooooooosh.

The beasts looked at Wain with a furious looks as suddenly their bodies shattered into many pieces. The beasts tried to recover as before, but there were too many wounds, so after a while, there were only a few blue sparks left.
