Nameless King

“So… You were able to survive a battle against a most dangerous enemy and thanks to your friends you were able to be reborn? Damn, I want to meet them. They must be incredible people to have come up with such a complex and incredible spell! Simply geniuses!” Eva exclaimed with glowing eyes as Wain’s story actually impressed her.

‘Hahaha, Wain, I’m starting to like her more and more!’ Abyss Artist suddenly laughed with a wide grin.

‘Yeah… This girl can really appreciate our efforts.’ Blind Sorcerer smirked, ‘You should learn that from her. After all, we’re still waiting for you to wake us up. I hope you can do it soon.’

‘Shut up!’ Wain inwardly exclaimed with a frown, ‘If it weren’t for me you’d all probably be dead! What’s more…’ Wain was silent for a moment with a complicated expression, ‘No words can describe what you have done for me.’

Abyss Artist and Blind Sorcerer glanced at each other before nodding, ‘We know that, don’t worry. We were just trying to lighten the mood. You need to get back into the conversation or your girlfriend’s going to get worried.’

‘Girlfriend… right?’ Wain muttered to himself as he stared at Eva.

“Hmm? What’s the matter? Is there something on my face?” Eva asked, tilting her head in confusion.

“Hah, no, not at all, I was just wondering what I’d be doing alone if I hadn’t met you?” Wain said calmly, not even realizing how ridiculous it was in their situation.

“Hahahahahaha!” Eva laughed hard as her voice like thunderclaps spread hundreds of meters around, “I couldn’t even in my wildest dreams imagine you being capable of saying something like that!”

Wain frowned as his aura intensified, “Hey, do you think I have no right to be melodramatic or sentimental even sometimes? What’s your problem?”

However, Eva kept laughing, she just couldn’t seem to stop and Wain’s frown face amused her even more.

“Sorry, it’s not what you said, I mean, I’m even glad you stopped being so cold as usual for a moment, it just looked too comical after your story.” Eva finally calmed down, wiping the tears from her eyes with her hand.

“Hmm? I don’t understand.” Wain tilted his head.

“I just heard an incredible story and learned a lot about you. Damn, you are the legendary Nameless King! You defeated one of the rulers of the Arkan World and literally rose from the dead! However, the real you isn’t necessarily a walking majesty, is it?” Eva smiled slyly, touching her lower lip.

“Agh, I don’t care. Just answer the question.” Wain waved his hand, laying down on the ashes, seemingly displeased.

Eva giggled, laid her head on his chest, and said, “I don’t know. Chances are if we hadn’t met, you’d have just found someone else.”

“Hmm?” Wain’s eyes went wide as he in no way could have expected such a strange answer.

“Don’t get me wrong. I’m just not one of those people who thinks there’s only one person among millions who would be right for your boyfriend or girlfriend. It’s a little different for me as I believe that if you’re lucky enough to meet someone like that, then you should make sure you never have to look for a new partner again.” Eva said calmly with her eyes closed.

Wain was silent for a while before he said, slowly stroking her head, “Well, your words make sense, but I’m probably the first type of person since in five hundred years you’re the first person I’ve had such strong feelings for.”

“Hah, you’re just a unique case.” Eva grinned, enjoying this quiet moment. 𝑏𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘦𝑡

This went on for a while until Eva mustered up the courage to ask, “Wain… When this is over, what are you going to do?”

“What are you talking about?” Wain glanced at her with a puzzled expression.

“Well… you know, I believe you can win the Great War, after all, you only have to kill the second leader of the Arkan World. You may encounter some more problems, but after the Great War there will definitely be peace for a long time to come.” Eva whispered as if she was unsure of her words.

“Agh, I hope so. It’s rather ironic, but globally, nothing has happened for the last five hundred years precisely because I wasn’t there. The second leader of the Arkan World didn’t need to rush as he was recovering from the war, but now things are back in motion.” Wain said calmly, looking up at the clouds slowly floating across the blue sky.

“Damn… I’ve only just realized how big of an age difference we have!” Eva’s eyes went wide, “You’re over half a thousand years old!”

“Hahaha, technically yes, but there’s a lot of nuances here. Most of the five hundred years I was asleep before I was reborn into this world, too this body isn’t even thirty yet, so I’m pretty young.” Wain smirked holding Eva close to him, “Is that really a problem for you? I don’t believe it.”

“No, not at all.” Eva shook her head.

“Well… In fact, I know what I’d like to do after this is over.” Wain said with a slight smile on his face.

“Hmm?” Eva turned to him with a curious look.

“I would definitely rest first, since until this is all over I will always only think about how to win the next Great War, then I would start the next great thing in my life in which I am an absolute novice.” Wain said calmly as he glanced at Eva.

“A great thing? You mean some kind of hobby?” Eva was confused. She didn’t know what Wain could be a novice at since he was one of the greatest fighters in history.

“A hobby? No, it’s much more serious than a hobby.” Wain shook his head, raised slightly, and stared intently into Eva’s eyes.

He put his palm to her belly, saying quietly, “I’d start a family. With you.”
