Nameless King

For a while there was silence in the forest as no one could believe that this really happened, only Luar smiled and kept drinking wine as though everything was fine.

“Mr. Luar! What have you done?!” Linda exclaimed with a panicked look as she smacked the table.

“I agree… Luar… You’ve made a huge mistake… This is a disaster…” The massive monster with golden fur muttered in an intermittent voice as it was too drunk to even stand still.

“Shit, shit, shit!” Linda uttered, “We’ve all had too much to drink! Out of hundreds of monsters, only a few at most can fight! We need to figure something out right away! Maybe we can work out a deal with this Void? This is a misunderstanding!”

Linda was the one who supervised all the territories as well as prepared the monsters for future wars, but there was no way she could have expected Luar to do something so crazy.

“Hey, Linda, shouldn’t yell like that, or do you want to give everyone here a headache? We have a hangover to go through anyway, so don’t make things worse.” Luar muttered in a careless manner.

“What…? But you declared war…” Linda uttered with a devastated look, “Damn… This is the end… I should have seen this coming…”

“Don’t worry. Maybe I’m drunk, but I didn’t pick the strongest opponent, I didn’t think they’d agree, but it’s for the best.” Luar said, rising and looking at Wain, “Shall we put on a show? We as leaders of the two Void’s have to take responsibility for it, don’t we?”

“Hah, you are damn right.” Wain smirked as he stood up in a confident manner.

“Wait…? Are you two going to fight alone? This is a war of two Voids!” Linda exclaimed with a worried look, “You’re too drunk to realize how stupid a thing you’re doing!”

“Well, well, you’re really lucky that your chief assistant cares so much about you.” Wain shook his head.

“Yeah, but it’s a little frustrating that she doesn’t believe we can handle it.” Luar uttered as he sighed.

“By the way, aren’t we going to have a problem with the fact that there are actually monsters of two Voids here? That’s pretty unfair, right?” Wain asked with a confused look as he shook his hand.

“It’s a complicated question… but considering there’s only two of us it should be fine.” Luar muttered while scratching the back of his head.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Suddenly space trembled as cracks appeared in the air in the distance that quickly grew as though on a mirror.

[Error!]

[In the Void, Golden Fire Forest is simultaneously two owners of Voids! Ordinary warfare is unacceptable in such circumstances.]

[Since Luar Jacquinot was the one who declared the war, the owner of Azure Lake has the right to refuse to conduct the war or to call for help from another Void. In case of victory Golden Fire Forest will be divided in two.]

“Fuck…” Wain and Luar muttered simultaneously as they felt the alcohol quickly begin to leave their bodies.

“Oh no…” Linda muttered with a desperate look, “Please… let this be over.”

[The owner of Azure Lake decided to call for help from another Void.]

[Void, Frozen Hills will join the war against Golden Fire Forest.]

Crackle.

In the distance, on a stone field where there were some golden trees opened two portals from which rushed out a powerful stream of cold and freshness that was unique for such a hot place.

At the same time, dozens of monsters ran out of the portals, some with water powers, others with ice powers.

“Hmm… Did they decide to pit the weaklings against us first?” Luar muttered in a thoughtful manner, “Who will you choose?”

“Water. Ice, I’ll leave it to you.” Wain said in a calm voice while looking at the monsters running at them.

“Good.” Luar nodded.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Luar’s blue eyes flashed and Wain’s green eyes grew deeper as they released their auras that were powerful enough to cause the air beside them to ripple.

The monsters paused for a moment as a shiver ran through their bodies with a powerful sense of danger that penetrated their hearts.

“Huh, looks like it’s too much for them.” Wain smirked in a mocking manner, “Luar, I’ve changed my mind. I’ll deal with them all myself, I won’t even have to fight for it.”

Wain waved his hand as a wave of gray energy emerged from him that turned into the massive silhouette of an eerie ghost. 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝒎

“Oh, you want to scare them? I don’t think you can, most of them are in the Third Chronicle, some are even in the Fourth Chronicle, they must be pretty tough.” Luar muttered.

“Well, if you knew the effects of my World Impact you wouldn’t be so sure.” Wain said with a devious smile on his face as he clenched his hand into a fist.

The ghost opened its terrifying maw as a piercing scream that reached every creature in all the Voids involved in this war erupted. However, the sound was not the main weapon as the fear that caused dozens of monsters to flee back into the portals.

“Ahahahahahaha, this might be more fun than I thought.” Wain laughed while the ghost above him dissipated.

Whoooooosh.

Suddenly several daggers flew out of the portals as though arrows were headed toward Wain. There were more than ten of them, but only one could reach him.

Wain’s pupils narrowed as he caught the dagger right before him, the tip of the blade stopping a centimeter from his eye.

“Well, well, I thought it would be an easy task, you don’t often meet an idiot who will start a war under these circumstances, but it seems your confidence is justified.” Someone said in a calm voice, then a man emerged from the portal leading into the Frozen Hills.

He had gray skin, long white hair, and deep green eyes. His lean body was dressed in a roomy blue coat that did not restrain his movements because of the bones protruding from his knees and elbows.

“Undead…” Wain muttered, “Huh, this should be interesting. The more opponents the better!”
