Nameless King

The war between the two Voids originally began because Wain decided to upgrade his zone rank. He was seriously wounded and had been unconscious for a long time, so he did not immediately notice that the process was over.

There were a large number of messages in front of Wain.

[Void – Ice Caves was upgraded from Rank-F to Rank-E. In accordance with the increase of the Rank zone, the values of bonuses have been redistributed.]

[As long as you own this Void, all your stats are increased by 15. Your resistance to the element of ice is increased by 15%.]

[As long as you are in the territory of this Void, your stats are increased by 15%. Your resistance to the element of ice is increased by 45%.]

[All creatures in this Void have stats increased by 45%.]

[All creatures in this Void progress and accumulate Soul Essence 45% faster.]

‘I see, the values have become the same as in Snow Desert since these territories now have the same Rank.’ Thought Wain and a few more messages appeared before him.

[Ice Caves will gradually grow and strengthen. Over time, this area will increase in size and its overall power.]

[The quantity and quality of the resources growing in this zone have been increased. In Ice Caves, another resource besides Ice Crystal will begin to appear.]

Wain smiled. This was exactly what he expected.

‘Increased bonuses are good, of course, but new resources are the most valuable thing possible.’ Wain thought.

He wanted to evolve in the World of Darkness and gradually become stronger. After owning his first Void, he decided it was a promising endeavor.

‘Hmm, considering that the war only started when the spatial barrier of Ice Caves became unstable, creatures from other Voids are unlikely to be able to attack me. Moreover, even then, only a Void roughly equal in strength could attack Ice Caves, that’s reassuring.’ Wain thought.

Wain worried that someone could use a portal to get to his Void and destroy everything at any moment. In that case, it would be an absolute failure. Wain would lose everything. Moreover, if Ice Caves were invaded by a person equal in power to Ria, Wain would most likely die.

“I wonder if I can attack other Voids on purpose. If someone decided to attack us, we could do the same here. Right?” Wain muttered, and to his surprise, a message appeared in front of him the next moment.

[You can declare war on the other Voids, and if they decide to agree, a portal will be opened between the two zones. However, in that case, information about both zones will be available to their leaders.]

Wain nodded, “I see, in that case, I won’t be able to win just because I’m lucky enough to have more monsters than the enemy. He’ll give up the war when he sees that I outnumber him statistically. The same goes for me.”

Wain wondered, ‘But, why hasn’t anyone decided to declare war on this Void yet?’

As soon as he thought about it, a message appeared.

[Wars can only be declared against other Voids if the zone owner is in the World of Darkness. Otherwise, these Voids will not be on the list of ready for war.]

‘I see. I’ve been in Ice Caves for quite a short time, most of which I’ve been fighting or healing.’

Wain wanted to see which Voids he could attack, but suddenly he saw another message.

[To declare war on other Voids, you must assert your status in the World of Darkness. You and your Void will then be visible to other creatures in the World of Darkness.]

Wain frowned. He did not want to be attacked by Second Chronicle creatures or even more formidable opponents at some point. In that case, he would die, and all of his subordinate monsters would be killed. Wain was strong, but he couldn’t handle a thousand Second Chronicle enemies.

Whoooosh.

Another message appeared in front of him.

[The strength of the Voids you can fight will be limited by your Chronicle. However, you can give your permission to expand your limit and fight more powerful Voids if you wish. However, you may not declare war on Voids whose Chronicle is lower than yours]

Wain nodded, “I see. The situation is roughly the same as during the zone’s Rank increase, but in this case, there is nothing said about size and Rank limits. In any case, attacking Second Chronicle Void is suicide.”

Wain was pleased with the way the war system in the World of Darkness was set up. It was straightforward, and he could also get many bonuses every time he gained the upper hand. At that moment, Wain even considered moving to the World of Darkness permanently but quickly abandoned the idea.

‘Something tells me my world is special. Moreover, as I understand in the World of Darkness, the main forces and races have long been defined. Climbing to the top, in this case, would be quite difficult. Also, I am not a native of the World of Darkness, above all, I am human.’ Wain thought.

“Good, then I want to confirm my status and see a list of Voids I can attack.” Calmly Wain said.

He wanted to keep fighting, but he knew that was impossible in this situation. He was wounded and had to return to his world.

He needed to find parts of a map and a helicopter or a plane to get to the island. Moreover, his zone had just become Rank-E. He had to wait a while for his monsters to get stronger.

[Accepted]

The next moment his World of Darkness card appeared before Wain.

[Nameless

Race: Human

Chronicle: First

Voids: 2, Ice Caves Rank-E, Snow Desert Rank-E

Warriors: 1359]

‘Not bad, it’s more detailed than what I saw from Purple Pilgrim, but he said he let me see it. He probably withheld most of the information.’ Wain thought.

[The other owners of Voids will only be shown your name or alias, Chronicle, and the number of Voids you own. Race, number of your warriors, as well as the names of the Voids you own will not be shown.]

“Great, now I want to see a list of Voids I can declare war on.” Proclaimed Wain.

[Accepted]

Wain thought an information window would appear in front of him, but suddenly the ground beneath him began to turn to ink. Wain was surprised but did not resist. He understood that this was the will of the World of Darkness.

When The ink completely absorbed wain’s body, he found himself in a strange place. Around him hovered a multitude of multicolored particles that looked like tiny stars.

Wain took a closer look and realized that they were other Voids, each with its owner. He could see detailed information about each Void.

Wain approached the bright red star, and an information window opened.

[Fire Forest

Owner: Hrilad Werner

Size: Tiny

Chronicle: First

Rank: D ]

“Hmm, some persons reveal their names, that’s pretty weird. I think it’s much safer to have an alias.” Wain muttered and headed for the next star.

He looked at the other Voids for a while before deciding to leave the place. He wasn’t going to start a war with anyone at this point. It didn’t make any sense.

Wain wanted to recover and return to the world fully, but he had another more important task. Wain was going to merge the two Voids into one and see what would happen in that case.

[You own two Voids, and you can merge them. In that case, the two spaces would merge, and the area would undergo significant changes. Do you want to start the process?]

‘How long would that take?’ Wain asked.

[This depends on many parameters, important among which are the size of Voids, as well as the Ranks of these zones. A lot also depends on the owner of these Voids. When combining Voids, you have to transfer your energy to your zones. This means that your power and the power of your souls in Soul Altar greatly affect the end result].

‘I see, then I don’t want to start the process just yet.’ Thought Wain and headed for the ice lake.

He didn’t know that he would need to transfer his energy to Voids during the merger, so Wain decided to recover first fully.

His life was not threatened at the moment, but he was not ready to fight or do something as complicated as merging the two Voids. He needed time to recover from a hard and deadly battle.

When Wain reached the lake, he sank into it and closed his eyes. Wain wanted to rest and get his thoughts in order. Quite a few things have happened lately, and there would be more soon. The world he found himself in was even more amazing than he thought.

…

Thus three days passed. Wain did not train or fight with anyone. All he did was rest and think about the present situation.

Splash.

Wain climbed out of the icy lake and muttered, “It took longer than I expected to regenerate, but now I’m ready for a new challenge.”

Simple wounds like cuts and scrapes were easier to heal than torn organs. Even with Ghost Healing Threads, it was pretty difficult to do, but Wain was content to stay alive and not suffer irreparable injuries.

“Okay, now it’s time to start.” Wain muttered and decided to begin the process of merging the two Voids.

When Wain decided, the ground beneath him turned to ink again, and he found himself in the same place. However, only two stars were floating around him this time, his Voids. One was white and yellow, and the other was completely blue.

The next moment two black strands emerged from Wain’s body and connected with the soaring stars. The stars then collided with each other, and Wain saw a message.

[The merging of Void, Ice Caves with Void, Snow Desert began.]

Every monster in these Voids saw this. They didn’t expect their leader to take such a step, but they couldn’t resist it. Moreover, some monsters were happy with the situation, as this was the next step in their development.

They had to grow stronger to one day become powerful in the World of Darkness.

The two stars were trying to merge into one, and Wain could feel a huge amount of energy leaving his body. It wasn’t a pleasant feeling, it felt as if the life force was being sucked out of him.

As time passed, Wain’s stamina began to run low. He was puzzled as the process was not complete, but he had almost no energy left.

‘Damn, most likely the others are preparing large amounts of energy crystals before the Voids merge. However, this is not an option for me.’ Wain thought.

Wain was only partially right. Those with small energy reserves did prepare crystals to keep up the pace, but the reason for Wain’s fatigue was something else.

He was only using his power now, while the souls in his Soul Altar were still inactive. So when Wain had less than 5% power left, the Soul Altar began to change.

Whooooosh.

Soul Altar lit up in black flames just as the threads connected to the two stars. At that moment, the Voids began to receive more energy than before. This was a major part of combining the two spaces into one.

Wain was surprised but didn’t relax and merged the two Voids. Simultaneously, the monsters saw black threads begin to emerge from the walls, sewing the two spaces into one.

Likewise, a black flame flared up outside each zone, like in Wain’s Soul Altar. It gradually enlarged each of the zones, making them larger.

It was not a quick process, it was measured and slow. The monsters continued to mine crystals or train, waiting to see their new home. It was like a bonfire forever burning in the abyss.

…

Wain didn’t know how much time had passed, but he dared not stop and be distracted. He couldn’t make a mistake, or he would lose too much. These two Voids were all he had in the World of Darkness.

After ten days, Wain finally got close to the final stage. He watched as the two stars practically merged into one complete star.

A few minutes later, the process was complete, and Wain looked at the blue and white star floating in front of him. A dark aura emanated from it, just like the threads.

Wain smiled and saw several messages.

[The merging of the two zones into one was successfully completed.]

[Nameless is the sole owner of the new Void.]

Then the ground beneath Wain turned to ink again, and he turned back. There were ice caves all around him as well.

‘Gotta go around the area to see what’s changed.’ Wain thought.

[You, Nameless, are now the owner of Void – Frozen Land.]

“Not a bad name…”

[Frozen Land

Owner: Nameless

Size: Small

Territories: Ice Caves, Snow Desert

Chronicle: First

Rank: E ] 𝐛𝐞𝐝𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝗺

“AHAHAHAHAHA, great, this has gone to the next level!” Quite said Wain and several more messages appeared in front of him.
