Nameless King

After Wain used the second form, Cursed Swordsman, his strength increased several times. Linlea was a fast and powerful opponent, but she was nothing compared to the second form.

Wain sliced off her right arm with a single, smooth swing of his sword. Linlea\'s limb flew to the side, and the black orb exploded at that moment. There was a deafening explosion, and Linlea\'s arm was destroyed.

"NO!" Shouted Linlea, she could have reattached her arm and healed her wound, but now it was impossible.

"When you spoke of humanity, you could hear the contempt in your voice, but I will correct that. You shall feel only fear and terror before me. You will be writhing in pain, and death will be a blessing to you." Wain said in a cold tone. His voice was so eerie as if it came from the farthest reaches of the abyss.

Linlea felt her legs begin to tremble, but she quickly came to her senses and prepared to attack.

"Where did you get this power? A mere human cannot be that powerful!" Linlea uttered, and electrical discharges piled up in her hand. They quickly transformed into a massive, white lightning bolt, which struck Wain like a heavenly punishment.

Wain reacted instantly and swung his silver sword toward the lightning. A crescent-shaped icy blade appeared in the air and shattered the white lightning into pieces. Wain needed only one swing to quell Linlea\'s attack.

"Is that all you can do? You know I don\'t like upstarts because usually, such people are worthless trash. You\'re no different from such people, for, in fact, you\'re an empty shell who doesn\'t even know how to use your power properly." Wain said calmly.

Linlea wanted to say something, but then she got the impression that time had slowed down significantly. She watched as Wain was about to make a move, which happened very slowly.

But as Linlea tried to run away, she realized that she couldn\'t even move. She didn\'t know if it was because she was slow or because she was too afraid of Wain, and fear bound her movements like chains.

When Wain\'s foot touched the floor, he turned into a blur and a moment later was in front of Linlea. She tried to retreat, but she was too slow.

Whooosh.

Wain swung his sword and severed Linlea\'s other arm. This swing created an icy wave that destroyed the wall behind her and turned her into numerous frozen wrecks.

"No, please don\'t kill me! I\'ll do anything you want! I will obey you all my life!"

When Linlea realized that she could not handle Wain, she began begging for his mercy. Like all living things, she feared death and wanted to go on living.

"I see, you\'re even worse than garbage. I thought, given your hubris, you would behave with dignity before you died, only that you disgraced yourself and your race." Said Wain and grabbed Linlea by the throat.

Wain swung his arm and threw Linlea into the wall. She flew aside like a projectile and fell to the ground, coughing up blood.

Then Wain raised his sword high above his head. He wasn\'t just going to kill Linlea. He was going to destroy the place.

Gradually a large amount of energy gathered at the silver sword. The temperature around Wain slowly dropped, and a thin layer of ice appeared on the floor.

"No... don\'t do that..." Linlea said from the last of her strength, she knew she would not survive, but she could not accept it. Wain was the one who shattered her hopes and broke her world and mind.

Wain was ready to put the sword down, but suddenly five people ran into the hall. It was the group that had found the muddy water well after Wain.

Some of them were wounded, but not critically. Each of them could fight and was ready to battle. They were shocked by the scene before them.

They didn\'t know what to do, but suddenly one of them saw a wounded Linlea and said, "Let\'s go! We must help her!"

The others nodded and pounced on Wain. Since they were unaware of the situation, they thought Wain was the enemy. Linlea was wounded and outwardly was virtually indistinguishable from a human.

Wain didn\'t look like a monster on the outside, but his entire body was hidden under a cloak, and dark energy emanated from his body. Their actions were logical, but they made a deadly mistake.

Wain looked at the men attacking him with an icy stare and said coldly, "Get lost!"

He then brought his icy sword filled with energy down. Wain put most of his power into this attack. He used the power of his second form to the maximum.

When the sword blade touched the ground, there was an incredibly powerful, icy explosion. It was like splitting a giant glacier.

The ice waves spread out to the sides, destroying and freezing everything around them. The group members were instantly turned into frozen statues and then shattered into a multitude of debris.

Linlea suffered the same fate as they did. The last thing she saw of her life was ice, bringing only destruction.

Because of such a powerful attack, the hall walls were destroyed, and several blocks of ice appeared from beneath the seabed. All of this was the effect of a single, powerful attack.

Wain canceled the action of the second form and breathed a sigh of relief. He didn\'t know how an attack of that magnitude would affect his body, but to his surprise, he felt fine.

"It was pretty strong. I was right to use the second form." Said Wain looking around.

Even he didn\'t know how devastating and spectacular the final attack would be. Then he realized once again how strong the second form was.

"No, every form is strong. It all depends on the situation. I wasn\'t injured this time, so I could use the Cursed Swordsman a little more than before. But, I still feel a little recoil." Wain muttered.

He looked at Linlea\'s body, or instead at the icy wreckage, which was all that was left of her. The pink soul was slowly heading toward Wain. It flew into his body.

[Soul of Dark Adept (Whole)

Chronicle: Primary

Rating: Epic]

Wain wanted to crush it immediately, as he was surprised that it was Whole Soul. He wanted to get Epic Rating gear or skill book, but he stopped at the last moment.

"If I\'m not mistaken, when she attacked me, her body was covered in white, electric discharges. This means that her soul most likely possesses the attribute of lightning if that wasn\'t the effect of her armor.

Moreover, darkness was constantly emanating from her body, and before I used the second form, she created a dark orb with great destructive power. That means that her soul might also have the attribute of darkness..." Wain muttered.

Wain didn\'t think about it during the fight since all he wanted was to kill Linlea. But as Wain calmed down and his thoughts came to order, he realized that he had just hit the jackpot.

"I had already improved my skills several times, and all this time, I wanted to improve my soul. But, the option I had chosen required a rather rare soul, which was very difficult to obtain. Now, however, I have that soul in my hands." Wain muttered.

In addition to skills, a human could also improve additional souls. Right now, Wain could only have one additional soul, and that was the Soul of Last Knight, which he got when he was on the Isle of the Damned.

Wain smiled contentedly and moved the soul to his inventory. Then he opened the soul enhancement menu and selected the Soul of Last Knight.

[Black Thunder\'s Renegade (Primary Chronicle, Epic Rating): All conditions for developing this soul are met.

[Need any Epic Rating Whole Soul with Lightning and Darkness attribute: 1/1]

[Want to use the necessary materials and develop Last Knight to Black Thunder\'s Renegade?]

Wain didn\'t wait and mentally answered \'Yes\'. He had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and now he could finally become much stronger.

Souls were much stronger and more effective than most skills, so Wain was looking forward to what would happen next.

His Soul Altar trembled, and the next moment, the change process began.
