Nameless King

Chapter 150 Hurricane

When Wain used the Furious Lion Amulet, all his stats were increased by 15 points. Moreover, his resistance to fire was also increased. This item was perfect for the battle against a dangerous opponent like Ria.

'Hmm, I have 24 status points. I think this is the best time to use them.' Thought Wain and allocated 16 points to Agility and 8 to Strength.

At this point, Wain was about 20% stronger than a few seconds ago. Wain didn't use Nameless King's Forms since he had rather little energy left.

That would be his last trump card. Emola and Nirkad were able to call for help. Wain thought there was a small chance that Ria was capable do it.

It would be a mistake to waste the last crumbs of energy to activate the form in such a case. Moreover, Wain first wanted to know how strong Ria was, all things considered.

He clenched his dark sword tightly and prepared for battle. Emola and Nirkad would not be able to help to Ria, as they were exhausted after the fight with Wain.

"Boy, is all your strength some trinkets?" Ria said with a sneer.

"I just do whatever it takes to win. However, defeat is probably more familiar to you than that." Wain said with a smirk.

Ria frowned and lunged in his direction. She was much faster than Emola and Nirkad. Ria was like a flare of fire that instantly got to Wain.

Bam.

Ria delivered a powerful punch with her fist. Wain managed to block it with a sword, but he felt a powerful recoil a moment later. Ria's blow was many times stronger than Nirkad's.

Wain frowned. He swung the sword sharply diagonally several times, trying to attack Ria at several points at once. However, she took a step back and hit Wain with the back of her palm.

Whooosh.

Wain bent down, and Ria's fist flew over his head, but a split second later, Ria kicked. Wain didn't have time to dodge that attack, all he could do was cross his arms in front of him and block that punch.

Ria's punch was powerful enough to throw Wain aside. But she wasn't going to stop there. Ria clenched her fist tightly and slammed it into the ground. Then a wave of fire appeared, aiming for her foe.

'Shit!' Thought Wain and turned into blue lightning.

He barely managed to dodge this attack. He bounced a few meters to the left and was about to use the Distant Bullet, but suddenly Ria appeared in front of him.

Bam.

Her fiery fist, like a red-hot hammer, slammed into Wain's abdomen. The blow was powerful and crushing. Wain vomited a mouthful of blood and was severely burned by the white flames. Likewise, Wain was thrown aside more than ten meters.

'Fuck, her punches are pretty simple but accurate. I've met people whose fighting style was times more dangerous and skilled. However, her stats are superior to mine.' Wain thought, clenching his teeth in pain.

Some of his flesh is burned, and his insides are badly damaged. Wain might even die if he received several more of these blows to a weakly defended area.

Wain was in a situation similar to his battle with Luar. Back then, his opponent also outnumbered him in stats. However, these two situations had one crucial difference.

Initially, Luar had fewer stats, but after he used the amulet, the situation changed. However, Ria didn't use any items. She was faster, stronger, and had more protection.

There was no way to change this. Wain had already used all the items that could strengthen him. He had to defeat Ria by relying on his skills, experience, and mastery.

However, this was almost impossible to do. Even if he knew how to attack Ria, he might not have had time to react because she was faster.

"Will you stop?" Smiling Ria asked. "As I said earlier, I need you alive. You can't beat me. My strength is limited, but there's a whole chasm between us even so. Give up."

Wain grinned, "Are you deaf? I already told you I'm not interested, or are you too stupid to understand it?"

"You!" Said Ria and lunged toward Wain.

She attacked him furiously, throwing many blows per second. Wain blocked every punch, but it was hard for him. Wain could feel his hands going numb.

'This is getting dangerous. If this keeps up, I'm going to miss a punch or more again. I need to think of something urgently.'

Bam.

Ria struck hard enough to knock the sword out of Wain's hands. He drew back immediately, but Ria had no trouble catching up to him and turned and kicked him in the side.

Wain defended with an elbow, but Ria punched him in the face a moment later. Wain twisted sharply to bypass the blow, but Ria stomped her foot with force, and there was a fiery explosion around her.

Wain was thrown to the side, and Ria wanted to continue her attack, but suddenly the entire space trembled.

Everyone was wary. No one knew what was going on.

Whooooooosh.

Suddenly, books began flying out of the layer of clouds below them. More and more were flying out with each passing second. It looked strange and unusual. Eventually, more than ten thousand books flew into the sky, and the number grew rapidly.

Tremble.

Wain's Seal of Darkness flashed brightly, and he felt a huge amount of energy emanating from above. It was the energy vibrations coming from the Sorcerer's Soul.

"What's going on?" Ria said puzzled.

All the books on the lower clouds suddenly flew to the top, and that was just the beginning.

'Damn, I was too stupid. I need the Sorcerer's Soul and I got to a place with thousands of books. Obviously, the soul was hidden somewhere in them.' Thought Wain looking at the floating books above.

Then they came in motion and turned into a massive tornado made entirely of books, and it kept getting bigger.
