Nameless King

Chapter 1116 Crimson



Chapter 1116 Crimson

Liang needed as much power as possible to completely fill the sphere – so he chose the easiest option. In order to do so, he needed to release the power that had been lurking within him the entire time.

Only during the fight with Nitra, did he reveal his Form for a moment, and now he hardly needed more time. Liang’s full strength was truly crushing, and if he kept his Form active for long, it would only lead to unnecessary destruction.

During the battle, it could easily help Liang win, but right now, there was no need for it. There were no enemies around, only spectators and even friends, so he just wanted to deal with this problem as soon as possible.

Nitra, Alucard, and Gael had created protective barriers dense enough to withstand the Dragon Elder’s breath. However, no one was going to attack these barriers, it was all necessary to withstand the aura and energy flows coming from Liang in chaotic ways.

“Well, even if me, Nitra, and Alucard were to direct energy at you, it would take us about ten minutes. That’s an insane figure, considering our power. However, I’ll do it all in a few seconds.” Liang seriously uttered with a deadly gaze.

Then, his eyes went wide, and his mantle soared upwards due to the streams of wind coming from him, along with scarlet energy.

Liang’s long black hair waving in the wind turned crimson color, and behind him appeared the silhouette of some ancient creature. It looked like a demon and a god at the same time, combining all the most terrifying and majestic things in this world.

“Fucking hell…” Ereg muttered, in disbelief, looking at Liang. Although he had not yet unleashed his full power and was at the Transcendence Stage, Ereg doubted that he would be able to defeat Liang if they were both at the peak of their power.

Gael nodded, “Yeah, that’s impressive. Such fierce and aggressive power, willing to destroy everything in its path, comes from someone who is considered the calmest and coldest among us. It’s a rather cruel irony.”

Nitra, containing Liang’s terrifying energy with her barrier of darkness, had a great grimace. At the sensation of that aura, a chill ran down her spine as she remembered the feeling she had felt when Liang had attacked her.

Back then, there was only emptiness inside her, as if she was an ant trying to lift a whole mountain – a completely impossible and insane idea that was doomed to failure from the start. In her world, she was the strongest, but in front of Liang using her Form, she was nothing.

‘Even though you said that by getting used to my new power I can become even stronger, but… Is it possible to surpass this level?’ Nitra inwardly uttered while her hands trembled. They were struggling to hold the barrier.

Alucard felt more free, he didn’t even need to use any of the Gates. However, his face didn’t have his usual smile on it, he was serious and focused.

“Wow… This power is impressive…” Sven muttered with a dazed expression, “Honestly, I don’t even know who would win if Liang and Olax fought.”

“They would both die.” Wain said seriously with a death stare, “Surely you realize that too, don’t you?”

Sven nodded slowly, “Yeah… However, I think there’s a small chance that Liang could have survived. Given the aura emanating from him, he’d only need a few attacks to end it all.”

Marlis and Osvald looked at each other silently. They were curious too, but they didn’t say anything as the situation was serious and tense. Wain had yet to find out what happened to Olax in the first great war before they fought 1 on 1.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The space shook, covering itself with many cracks since it could not withstand the pressure coming from Liang. He had no control over his energy and just let it emanate from him in random directions. .

“Fine, I hope you’re ready, this is going to be intense.” Ling uttered before taking a deep breath.

Then, his pupils narrowed and all the energy returned to his body heading towards his hand. The space around his hand immediately collapsed the fabric of the world torn apart and absorbed into the darkness of the open space.

With the amount of power that was now flowing through Liang’s arm, it was easily possible to destroy several huge voids. However, the colosseum was actually able to absorb some of that energy and it continued to do so without stopping.

“Damn… This is something unusual. The stones, the runes, the energy… these are all just elements, but not the basis of the colosseum.” Alucard muttered with a curious expression, “To absorb so much energy without difficulty… My body would have to be torn apart a hundred times before I could withstand this pressure.”

“Is it that impressive?” Krana asked as she tilted her head.

Alucard nodded, “Yeah… Let me put it simply. If instead of Nila, you were attacked by Liang using that power, you and I wouldn’t be talking right now. There would be nothing left of you. Liang would just make you disappear from this universe, forever.”

Krana gulped. She realized that Alucard was completely serious, it was obvious to her. In this time she had learned to understand situations pretty well by the emotions on the faces of others.

Whooooooooooosh.

At the same moment, a whole stream of water appeared in the crystal sphere, starting to replenish it quickly.

Previously there had only been a single drop, however, now it was more like a raging river that was trying to fill the sphere as fast as possible.

After a while, the colosseum began to shake, as if to show that it could no longer withstand such pressure. However, Liang didn’t remove his hand, he knew that the colosseum would be able to absorb all the energy, and there was still some left.

“Fine, the job is almost done.” Liang muttered before taking a step back.

He slowly removed his hand from the wall, releasing the last bits of energy into it.

Liang canceled his Form as his appearance returned to normal just like his wild aura.

The last few drops appeared in the sphere, completely filling it and making it shine brightly.

“What’s going to happen now? It has to be some kind of upgrade, right?” Nila muttered, looking around uncertainly.

“Yeah, most likely.” Alucard shrugged, followed by his gaze shifting to the center of the arena where a tiny crimson sphere appeared just like Liang’s aura from earlier.

The sphere quickly increased in size, becoming several hundred times larger.

Strangely enough, no one was able to resist the sphere’s influence as everyone who was touched by the sphere found themselves outside of the colosseum. All the spectators floated above the ground, being several hundred meters away from the colosseum.

Only Gael and Ereg were exceptions – they remained in the arena.

“Oh, so the colosseum realizes that they’re the ones getting all the attention right now, right? I wonder… Perhaps this entity has some sort of mind, but different from our own.” Alucard uttered with obvious curiosity.

“Hah, I hope it doesn’t end there?” Liang smirked, crossing his arms over his chest, “I hate to admit it, but giving up that much energy was difficult even for me.”

“Are you feeling ill?” Krana said worriedly.

Liang shrugged, “Nah, maybe a little sleepy and tired, something like that. However, if I were to do it again, I’d have to face some serious consequences.”

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The colosseum shuddered, beginning to move apart and increase in size. Very soon, the colosseum became several times larger and slightly taller, making the rows for the spectators looser and more comfortable.

Then, the color of each stone changed from dark or brown to crimson, and the runes glowed white or gold.

Sharp peaks appeared on the tops of the walls, creating a gothic aura, as if the colosseum were part of an ancient castle that housed evil ghosts or living horrors. However, in this place, besides the darkness, there was also light.

Whoooooooooooooooosh.

A multitude of scarlet lights appeared out of nowhere, hovering over the arena and slowly striving in one direction, like clouds floating across the sky, slow and serene.

The last part was the arena – instead of the old muddy ground, it was replaced by dark granite covered with many ancient runes. Now, nothing could harm this place, and the fighters had much more space to fight.

All the spectators returned to their seats, looking around with interest. No one expected something like this to happen during the fight.

“Damn… I feel different now…” Someone muttered with a dazed expression.

“Yeah, it’s as if this fight has moved to a new level, even though none of the fighters have increased their strength yet…”

Liang nodded happily, “Not bad, now this place looks worthy for anyone to fight here.”

“Like you and Nameless King?” Alucard suggested with an obvious smirk.

“Who knows? I would never turn down a fight with a strong opponent. However, it’s unlikely that we’ll have that opportunity anytime soon.” Liang muttered with a slight sadness in his voice.
