Nameless King

Wain counted on Lich to make that mistake and use all his forces at once. This allowed Wain to get rid of all his problems in an instant. His plan was risky, but he succeeded. His plan consisted of three steps.

First, Wain lowered his enemies’ stats by equating their strength to the average of everyone else’s. Then he used Seal of Dark Light and increased his attack significantly, and finally, he used a powerful artifact that summoned light rays.

Since the Death Knights and the beasts were undead, this attack was fatal for them. Lich understood this, so he tried his best to save his subordinates.

The crystal on Lich’s staff glowed brightly, and a massive seal of blue flame appeared above them. It absorbed the rays of light, but it could not last. Cracks gradually appeared in the seal, and Lich’s powers quickly dried up.

“Stop it immediately! I admit defeat! If you want subordinates, we must at least stay alive!” Lich shouted, and a crack appeared on his forehead. He also suffered as he used his life force to maintain his protective seal.

Wain frowned, he wanted Lich and the Death Knights to join him, but he had no power to stop it. He, like them, was forced to wait for the artifact’s effect to wear off, though somehow he could help them.

Snap.

Wain snapped his finger and canceled the first form. Along with that, the effect of the special skill of Code Light and Darkness disappeared, and the stats of the knights and beasts began to increase rapidly.

They quickly reacted and ran out from under the effect of the Seal of Dark Light and jointly protected themselves from the light rays.

The knights transferred their energy to the Lich, and the protective seal was quickly restored, and the rays could no longer damage it.

Eventually, the artifact’s power dried up, and the battle was over.

“Nameless, I cannot understand. Are you wise or foolish?” Lich said seriously.

“What do you mean?”

“Don’t you realize that because you spared us, we can attack you, and from the looks of it, you have no more trumps left?”

“Yes, you’re right. If you attack now, I might actually have to retreat, but that doesn’t mean you’ll win. We will escape and will defend ourselves at the gate. You won’t be able to get through, and you’ll still lose in the end, but there will be great casualties on both sides.”

“I see…” Lich muttered, “You are a wise man, not a fool. Well, I will not retract my words. As I said, I’m your subordinate now, and so are the others.”

Lich shook his head, and the Death Knights thrust their swords into the ground and knelt on one knee as a sign of respect.

[Dungeon, Bone Cave has submitted to Void, Forest of Frozen Dreams.]

[Bone Cave is now part of the Forest of Frozen Dreams.]

[Bone Cave is too small to be a separate territory and cannot expand without outside help, so Bone Cave will become a location in one of the territories in Void]

[Beginning to connect Bone Cave to the Forest of Frozen Dreams.]

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Space shuddered, and the top of the Bone Cave disintegrated into many shards, behind which the ice caves were visible. Gradually it became one, and it was now possible to move freely between zones.

Elegan, Reto, and the others immediately rushed to Wain. At Lich’s command, the skeletons stopped their attack and stood idly by as if they were puppets.

“What is your name?” Wain asked.

“Sarras” Lich slowly answered.

“Are you all right?” Elegan exclaimed, running up to them.

Wain nodded and, pointing at Sarras said, “Elegan, this is our new mate. Bring him up to speed. We have complete discretion, so I’m not restricting you.”

“I get it.”

“Mimic, how interesting…” Sarras muttered, looking at Elegan.

“Well, I didn’t expect I’d ever had to work with Lich.”

“Do you have something against me?” Sarras said coldly, and the flame in his eyes flashed much brighter.

“No, no, no, it’s all right!”

Whooooooosh.

Frigus appeared before Sarras and put two sharp blades to his neck.

“It is not customary for us to fight each other. Follow the rules if you choose to become one of us.”

“As if I need to. Because of you, I have my hands full, just look what you’ve done to my knights! They are crippled and their armor destroyed. I’ll see you later sometime.” Sarras turned and waved his mantle.

He headed into the darkness, and the strongest undead followed him.

…

Wain headed into the icy lake. He wanted to rest and gain strength, but suddenly several messages appeared before him.

[The number of monsters had reached 10,000.]

[Void, Forest of Frozen Dreams, ready for promotion.]

[Nameless, you as the owner of this area must permit for the process to begin.]

‘So much? Hmm, Bone Cave is quite a small area, but it seems to contain a huge number of skeletons.’ Wain pondered and looked at his World of Darkness card.

[Nameless

Race: Human

Chronicle: Second

Rank: A.

Voids: 1, Forest of Frozen Dreams, Rank-D, Medium.

Warriors: 10.037]

“Not bad…”

Wain decided not to start increasing the rank of the zone because it was too dangerous.

During this process, the spatial barrier of Void would weaken considerably, and another zone could attack it. This had happened the last time, and Wain was sure it would be even more difficult now.

The Forest of Frozen Dreams had only recently become Second Chronicle Void. If the rank advancement process began now, another Second Chronicle Void would attack it.

The monsters were weak and unprepared for such a challenge. One Sarras could not help them win an unexpected war.

However, Wain was not going to put it off. Now the space was unlocked, and he could return to his world and bring Forgotten here.

With it, Wain could not fear for his warriors and territories. For the moment, it was his strongest ally.

The Sela of Darkness flared up, and Wain was about to leave, but suddenly the Ring of Damned glowed brightly. Wain was surprised as the ring activated itself as if something was trying to get out of it.

Wain directed some energy into the ring, and the Forgotten Monarch’s Sword appeared before him. Wain took a closer look at the platinum sword and saw that its seal had lit up and was gradually disappearing.

‘That’s right…I had completely forgotten about it.’ Wain thought.

The Forgotten Monarch’s Sword had one special feature. It was a powerful weapon with a secret. Part of the sword’s power was blocked by a seal, and it was only supposed to disappear when ten thousand warriors would obey the owner of the sword.

Bone Cave and thousands of skeletons became Wain’s warriors, and he fulfilled that condition.

Flames engulfed the seal, and behind it was a sign in the form of flames. The sword turned in the air and headed toward Wain piercing his chest.

Wain didn’t have time to react, and Forgotten Monarch’s Sword ignited in a massive, dark blue flame, completely consuming Wain. .

The flames were cold and lonely, like a rejected traveler.
