Nameless King

Chapter 413 Intervention

Crackle.

Wain touched the floor, and ice crystals burst from the ground. They quickly filled the entire arena and reached the Queen. This attack couldn't hurt her, the crystals broke against her tough skin like glass, but Wain reached his target.

'Not bad, he knocked down her pace with the crystals, and now he's ten paces ahead again. That was a good fight.' Osvald pondered. He was sure Queen had already lost, it was only a matter of time and that Wain didn't have much left, only nine seconds.

"Bastard!" The Queen shouted, and a multitude of spatial blades appeared around her. They destroyed the crystals into small debris and had to hurt to Wain.

Whooooosh.

Wain's silhouette blurred, and he passed from all the spatial blades. He had already seen this scenario and knew how to move and what to do.

"What?!" The Queen was startled, and suddenly Wain appeared before her.

Bam.

He hit her with all his might, and she flew aside, then Wain unleashed a pillar of dark thunder and several phantom snake tails on her.

The Queen created spatial rips, and they absorbed the attacks, however, Wain disappeared from her sight. The arena was empty, and she couldn't figure out where he'd gone.

Tremble.

Goosebumps ran down the Queen's body, and she felt a murderous coldness emanating from behind her.

She turned around and saw Wain armed with a sword. The number on his eye was '1'. The Queen saw this as an opportunity, all she had to do was survive, and victory would be hers.

Crackle.

Space began to collapse because of her power, but suddenly Wain swung his sword, and his right eye closed.

"AAAAARRGGGHHH!" The Queen howled in pain as he severed two of her arms.

The arms flew off to the side and disappeared into the spatial rifts.

"No!" The Queen screamed in horror and tried to run away, but Wain immediately stopped her with a sword blade to her throat.

"Any last words?"

"Fuck you!"

"Good." Wain nodded and cut off the Queen's head.

The Cosmic Beetles couldn't take it anymore and attacked Wain in a rage, the fear of Osvald's power could no longer hold them back.

"Ah, I thought I wouldn't have to do this." Osvald shook his head and clenched his palm in a fist.

A massive magical white circle with the image of a dragon appeared above the arena, and flames burst from it. It incinerated the beetles, leaving them nothing but handfuls of ash.

The flames bypassed Wain as well as the Queen's body.

Wain canceled the third form and headed for her corpse. The white streaks still glowed brightly.

Whoooosh.

A red soul slowly flew out of the Queen's body.

'What? Just an Ascendant Rating?'

Wain was disappointed. He was expecting to get a Legendary Soul.

'Okay, maybe my expectations were too high.' Wain shook his head and touched the Soul, but suddenly the white bands flashed.

A huge amount of Soul Pearl energy emerged from the stripes and headed toward the Soul, and it gradually began to change. The red became thicker and slightly lighter until it turned completely orange.

The Soul glowed brightly, bright rays emanating from the Soul as if from the sun.

"What is this...?" Wain was puzzled.

"It's a miracle that the energy of Soul Pearl is capable of. The Queen's power came in part from the energy of Soul Pearl. Originally her Soul was Ascendant Rating, but given the power of pure energy, it was able to evolve to Legendary Rating." Osvald uttered.

"Legendary Rating... that means I can..." Wain muttered and grabbed the Soul. He squeezed it with force and was about to crush it.

"Stop! What are you doing?!"

"Hmm? I want to absorb it and increase my Majesty."

"Wain, you're too much in pursuit of it that you've completely forgotten about everything else. I understand that raising Majesty is very important to you, but this is Legendary Soul with a unique power. Isn't that enough for you to put this Soul into your Soul Altar?"

"Hmm..." Wain pondered.

He had gotten his Additional Soul a long time ago and hadn't thought about replacing it, though sometimes there were good options with a higher Rating.

p "Do you think this area has enough Soul Pearl for me to raise my Majesty by three points?"

"One hundred percent you can do it. I've only seen a few times in my life that Soul Pearl energy can change a soul. There sure are quite a few pearls in the core of this zone."

"Okay, I hear you." Wain nodded and loosened his grip.

He closed his eyes, and the Soul flew into his body, then changes began to occur in his Soul Altar. The altar glowed brightly, and the previous Soul flew out of it and disintegrated into small particles. Then an orange soul went into the vacated space, and a massive stream of energy burst forth from Wain.

The energy turned into a long beam that pierced the nest and headed toward the sky. The space around Wain's began to shake, and several messages appeared in front of him.

[Soul of Cosmic Beetles Queen became your Additional Soul]

[Soul of Cosmic Beetles Queen

Rating: Legendary

Chronicle: Third]

Crackle.

Suddenly several chains appeared on your soul, and the energy flow decreased slightly.

[Your Additional Soul has too high a Chronicle, and it has been lowered to your level. When you become strong enough, the chains will fall, and you will get your full power.]

[Soul of Cosmic Beetles Queen.

You have gained the power of the Queen, which controlled thousands of Cosmic Beetles. Space is your main ally and power, now you understand how this mysterious power works better than anyone else and...

'What?' Wain didn't understand what was happening. Suddenly the text stopped, and the information window began to ripple.

'I think we need to change it up a bit.' The voice of a Blind Sorcerer came through.
