Nameless King

Chapter 801 Thunder

"Ohoho, we have to hurry, it looks like the fun part is starting." Alucard said with an excited look while gazing at the shining tree in the distance before waving his hand.

Whooooooooosh.

Bloody streams appeared next to it, quickly forming a sphere. It covered Alucard, Krakos, Alia, and Gael, then the sphere shrank and disappeared. A moment later, on the hill opposite the shining tree, a bloody stream emerged from which four of them emerged.

"Well, well, you don't usually like to use this sort of thing, but you seem really interested in seeing this, don't you?" Gael said as a slight smirk appeared on his face.

"Sure. What's more, look, there are already several spectators here beside us." Alucard grinned as his pupils became vertical. His gaze went upward as he saw all that was going on a few kilometers around the shining tree.

There were already several silhouettes on the mountains, hills, and stone cliffs that were intently watching the glowing tree. Their auras were not as powerful as those of Alucard or Gael, but they were certainly as strong as Krakos and Alia.

"The heir of the Nameless King... from the looks of it, his battle is a hell of a fight. The guy he's fighting has a terrifying aura, for a Fourth Chronicle, he's just a monster." Gael muttered with a serious look as his gaze stared literally through the glowing tree.

"Ahahaha, their fight would be a great end to the first day at Lands of the Gods! I don't know why, but I'm sure it will be even more important than the new Angel Progenitor!" Alucard exclaimed with a frantic look as his aura intensified.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

At the same time, many thunderclouds appeared above the glowing tree as a white beam of energy burst from the last floor. It was dozens of times smaller than that of a Progenitor like Alucard, but the shape and density of the energy were very similar.

'Damn! I can still make it!' Wain inwardly exclaimed as he stepped forward and brought his sword down on Virion.

There was a huge amount of energy near Virion, it filled everything around him and was so dense that it slowed Wain down, but despite that, his sword was already moving toward Virion's neck.

"I didn't expect to lose to you that badly, but now I understand something. In fact, the second round only starts now, doesn't it?" Virion whispered with eyes as deep as the abyss as his pupils flashed.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Thunder rumbled through the clouds as thousands of electric sparks turned into massive white lightning. It, passed through the beam of energy, crashing straight down on Virion with all its might.

The blast of energy threw Wain aside, destroying his armor that absorbed all the damage that could cause serious injury to him.

The white beam slowly dissipated while streams of flame and lightning covered Virion's body. His aura grew stronger by the second until it reached its limit.

'Wain... Maybe it's time to use your Beyond? I mean... From the looks of it, he's gotten a lot stronger now. Perhaps he can kill you in one attack.' Gladius uttered in a worried voice as there was real fear in his voice.

'Well, maybe you're right, but I have someone else whose power I haven't used. I must first test what my opponent is capable of now before I take such serious steps.' Wain muttered inwardly with a calm expression as his gaze drifted to Virion.

Virion was now wearing a long white mantle, with a slightly blue hue. The mantle had electric shocks flowing steadily through it as the edges blazed brightly. A massive halberd with a long burning blade appeared in Virion's hand as lightning discharges passed over the hilt. The glowing hoop on his head transformed into a sort of crown with a mixed symbol of fire and lightning.

"Damn... That looks dangerous as hell." Wain muttered with his eyes wide open as goosebumps ran down his body.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

Suddenly, cracks appeared in the wall behind Virion. Something was trying to break through it, as suddenly a massive paw of a monster shattered the wall, ripping a massive chunk out of it. The monster was a huge bird with a creepy beak and an intimidating aura.

"Fifth Chronicle...? Why did it appear here? Are they interested in our energy...?" Wain uttered in a dazed as he clearly felt that this monster was on the lower edge of the Fifth Chronicle.

Wain and Virion's fight attracted the attention of even such powerful beings as Alucard, so hundreds of monsters had already gathered near the shining tree. All of them wanted Wain's or Virion's energy, so some of them even fought for the opportunity.

Virion with a calm look turned around, looked at the monster, then glanced at Wain and said, "Oh, looks like my aura attracted uninvited guests, that's not good. Sorry, I'll deal with this mess now."

Crackling.

Virion slowly raised his hand, pointed at the bird, and clenched his palm into a fist. At the same time, the runes on his mantle flashed brightly as from the thunderclouds, a massive white lightning bolt struck the monster.  It all happened in a heartbeat as the monster didn't even have time to realize that Virion was attacking.

"ARGHHHHH!!!" The bird cried out in terrible pain as streams of blood came out of its eyes as its entire body trembled due to the violent lightning strikes.

"Well, now we can continue. All that's left to do is make one last move." Virion uttered in an indifferent voice before snapping his finger.

A fiery spark appeared beside him, that seemed tiny and weak, but a second later it exploded with a torrent of flame, raining down on the bird. The white flame instantly burned the monster's feathers and skin, charring even its bones. Then, the bird's massive carcass plummeted to the sight of hundreds of other monsters.
