Nameless King

Chapter 1001 Energy

?

The massive body of the black Dragon, which could inspire terror in almost any creature, weakened and slowly fell into the vast darkness. At the same moment, the flame particles left by the orb flashed brightly and released all the energy inside them. 

Whoooooooooooooooosh.

From each fingernail-sized particle, a torrent of flame erupted capable of destroying an entire city. All that power spread around, quickly reaching the nearest space.

"Well, well, looks like someone's out of luck now." Sven smirked as he released his weapon. His needle turned into white energy, which became a barrier for him, protecting him from the fire.

Sven watched the flames engulf whole areas with a slight smile on his face and enjoyed the sight.

"Agh... What an incredible view... It was definitely worth it." Sven took a deep breath, then exhaled cold steam partially covering his silhouette.

...

"What's going on...?!" Someone exclaimed with a startled look as the usually blue sky suddenly turned a purple hue.

"We must be under attack!" His buddy shouted, "Get ready to fight!"

"Hah... but I don't see anyone..."

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The next moment, the flames collided with the barriers, severely damaging them and leaving thick cracks in them, it seemed that a few more spaces would be destroyed.

The inhabitants of these spaces quickly took all necessary measures, most of them were ready for the battle, but only after a while did they realize what really happened.

"Wait... Was it just a shockwave from an alien attack...? I mean... we were definitely never attacked, but at the same time we were hit..." The man muttered with his eyes wide open.

"Damn... I guess you're right, though I didn't think that was possible, but it's the only option that remains, but in that case... Who were those who fought?" His mate gave him a questioning look with obvious fear on his face.

"I don't want to know that... I just hope there are no more shock waves like that..."

No one wanted to face those who could fight in the open, it was just beyond them.

...

"Well, well, they all managed to survive, it looks like these spaces are at least in the Third Chronicle. They're lucky." Sven smirked while shaking his head.

Step. Step. Step.

Osvald and Marlis approached Sven, who had slightly surprised faces.

"Damn... I expected something serious to happen, but I didn't think the fire would be this bad..." Osvald muttered, looking at his shoulders, which were covered in burns.

"Pfff, if Sven would have used his Form, that Dragon would have died after the first attack and the nearest areas would have been destroyed!" Marlis exclaimed proudly.

Tap.

Sven put his hand on her head, petting her, and with a slight smile said, "You overestimate me, though perhaps you're right about something. In any case, I have a favor to ask of you."

"Agh... What exactly do you want me to do?" Marlis was puzzled.

Sven inhaled and looked down, where gradually, amidst the darkness, a source of light appeared, "I'm talking about this."

Osvald and Marlis turned around, then their eyes went wide at the sight of the huge soul that rose up from Birit's body. Each soul had a different color that denoted the power of its previous owner, and usually, the rarest was amber. However, Birit's soul was white, shining brightly like a star in the center of the galaxy.

"Hah, how much energy is in that soul...? It's incredible!" Osvald exclaimed with an excited expression.

"Many, many, and it will be the first in our collection, though no, that's the wrong word." Sven smiled slyly as he continued to pet Marlis.

"Hmm... I don't understand you..." Marlis muttered as she tilted her head.

"It's very simple." Sven sighed as his ring sparkled and The Last Seal appeared in his hand. In the center of the cube, a pyramid slowly spun, exuding a powerful aura.

"To activate this artifact requires an enormous amount of energy, so even I would have to use up all my reserves, and that's not in my plans." Sven smirked, concealing the artifact, then he stepped forward and spread his arms apart.

"Marlis, you have a unique opportunity, you are capable of storing the right amount of energy, as much as possible, aren't you?" Sven turned to her.

Marlis nodded, "Yeah... With the barriers, I can do it, but they need to be energized sometimes, and after a while, the stored energy will start to be lost." Marlis scratched the back of her head uncertainly.

"Don't worry about that. I'll give you as much energy as you need to maintain the barriers, so now, absorb that soul!" Sven exclaimed with a mad grin.

Marlis's eyes sparkled, "I see... You use the stored energy to activate The Last Seal and save yours for battle, right?"

Sven didn't answer, he just nodded approvingly.

Marlis smiled and stretched her arm forward, creating several magical circles in front of her. Slowly, the magical circles turned into a sphere inside which was Birit's soul. Then, Marlis clenched her hand into a fist, and the sphere began to shrink, turning the huge soul into an orb the size of an apple.

Clap. Clap. Clap.

Sven slowly clapped his palms together with a confident smirk.

"Fine, now it's time to gather as much energy as possible. I'm sure Olax will be very surprised when he realizes what a mistake he made." Sven looked at Birit's soul with glowing eyes, anticipating a future war.

"What shall we do now?" Osvald asked as he was slightly lost.

Sven took a deep breath, "Now we will continue to do Olax's orders as the strongest Arkans, but along with that, stealthily, we will gather energy, lots of energy, enough to destroy an entire world!"

Wain hovered around, watching all this with a complicated expression. He rubbed his chin and muttered thoughtfully, "Well, well, I guess I'm finally beginning to understand why Olax disappeared at the most important moment... Sven must have attacked him... Hah, damn, I can't wait to see it!"
