Nameless King

Chapter 407 Cats

The Cosmic Beetles quickly found out that there were strangers in their territory and they wanted to solve the problem as soon as possible.

"Yeah... I just wanted to practice, why does something like this always happen at the most inopportune moment?" Osvald shook his head, "How can I ever change your life if something keeps getting in the way? Okay, I just have to do it!"

Osvald smirked and put Wain on the ground.

The beetle squads didn't scare him, on the contrary, Osvald was glad, he liked to fight more than anyone else, in this, he surpassed even the Demons.

"Come on, you bastards, step up, just don't complain later that I was too hard on you."

Whooooooosh.

A massive armored beetle headed toward Osvald, breaking trees and demolishing everything in its path.

Osvald put his palm on his shoulder and stretched out his right arm. He stood still and prepared to strike.

Bam.

The beetle was in front of him, and Osvald attacked. His arm became a blur, and a moment later, the beetle has torn apart as a bomb exploded.

The beetles didn't stop and continued attacking from all directions. Although they had unique abilities, they were also insects. Their most effective tactic was to win by numbers, like ants.

"Ahahahaha, that's good, maybe it's even for the best that you decided to drag me here!" Osvald laughed and killed the beetle with another punch.

Osvald deliberately didn't use any skills. He preferred to rely on physical strength most of the time, and his fists were his strongest weapon.

The beetles continued to fly out of the nest, but suddenly they stopped, and even those fighting Osvlad retreated.

'Hmm? Are they up to something? Osvald looked up.

Hundreds of beetles hovering in the sky lined up in the shape of a star, and their wings glowed. An energy sphere appeared in the star's center, growing larger by the second.

"Wow, not bad." Osvald smiled and stepped aside, but after a few steps, he stopped, "Right... I can't just walk away."

Osvald forgot about Wain for a while, he wasn't used to working as a team and taking care of someone, but he wasn't going to leave Wain here.

"Looks like I'll have to hit full force again."

The sphere got big enough to turn into a laser. It headed toward Osvald and was going to incinerate him and Wain.

Osvald took a deep breath, and the silhouette of a dragon's head appeared behind him. It materialized and looked almost real, then Osvald exhaled, and a massive energy stream like a dragon breath burst from his mouth.

The stream met with a laser, completely engulfed it, and rained it down on hundreds of beetles. The monsters could not defend themselves, and the white flames burned them to the ground, and hundreds of corpses fell to the ground.

"Phew, that was cool, okay, it's time to rest." Osvald smiled and picked up Wain.

...

"Agh... Agh... Agh!" Wain suddenly started coughing.

"Oh, you're finally awake." Osvald said, opening the coconut.

"Yeah ... how long have I been unconscious?"

"Not long. One or two hours, I'm not sure. It's a good thing you woke up so quickly. I was just getting a snack, help yourself and let's go, we have a lot of work to do."

"Hmm?" Wain looked around and saw a fire nearby. There was some beast on a spit, and it was already fully cooked and half-eaten.

"Here you go." Osvald ripped off a paw and handed it along with the coconut to Wain.

"Thanks..." Wain nodded weakly and proceeded to eat.

The meat tasted rather mediocre and even dry, Osvald was not the best cook, but the food was still very good.

"Food while traveling always tastes several times better than even the best restaurant, right?"

"I couldn't agree more." Wain nodded, "Are we breaking into the nest?"

"Yes, also from that hill, we'll be able to look around. We'll try to get the beetle leader to help us first, but if that doesn't work, we'll have to find another way."

"I see." Wain sipped his coconut, "Okay, I'm ready, let's go!"

"Sure."

"AAAAAARGH!" Suddenly there was a shout from someone.

"Hey, did you hear that too?"

"Yeah, what the hell is that?" Wain puzzled.

"Let's go see." Osvald jumped and climbed up a massive tree branch. Wain followed him.

"Isn't that...?"

"I see. Looks like we're not alone here, that's reassuring." Osvald muttered, looking down.

Two girls were not far from the tree, dressed in leather armor and armed with steel swords. They were fighting a massive spider. The spider had eight paws, and the front two were like sharp blades.

"They are Beastfolks." Wain said confidently, looking at the girls.

"Yes, and they're from the Cat Clan. Hmm, and they're pretty cute." Osvald grinned.

"They seem to be in a difficult situation."

One of the girls was seriously injured, her leg was bleeding, and she could hardly keep her balance. Her partner protected her and fended off the spider's attacks, but their strength was not equal.

"Franzi, run! We came here for nothing, we can't beat him. At least you must save yourself!" Shouted the wounded girl. She had gray fur and big green eyes.

"No! We'll definitely get out of here!" The second girl blocked the spider's attack and bounced to the side.

"What are we going to do?" Wain asked.

"Huh, it's up to you. I honestly don't care about them. I like this place, and I don't mind sticking around for some time. We'll find a way out sooner or later anyway."

Wain was silent. He was watching them. Despite their hopeless situation, they did not back down and fought to the end.

"Well... we better get out of here as soon as possible. You still have to teach me how to lower my power level." Wain muttered and jumped away.

"An hour ago, we were killers, and now we're saviors. That's pretty ironic."
