Nameless King

Chapter 439 Five

Wain touched the pearl and squeezed it tightly.

"Wain, do you have somewhere to move the pearls?" Osvald asked.

Osvald could touch Soul Pearls with his bare hands without harm, but even Keith or Zariel had to use special mechanisms. You could use them to take and absorb Soul Pearls without harm.

"No." Wain shook his head.

"Well... Keith, do you have something for Wain?"

"Surely you need three cubes? I can give it to Wain. It's not a problem."

"That won't be necessary." Wain said calmly and pulled Soul Pearl from the core.

A large amount of pure energy emanated from Pearl. It covered Wain and spread throughout the room.

"What?! What are you talking about?" Keith exclaimed.

Osvald looked at Wain, puzzled. He had never once heard of a person in Second Chronicle who could touch Soul Pearl without harming himself.

"Just watch."

Tremble.

Ripples rippled through the air as a dark, open-eyed crown appeared on Wain, and eerie jaws opened on his palms.

Wain squeezed Pearl tightly, his jaws closed, and cracks appeared on Pearl. Pearl shattered into tiny shards, and a stream of energy headed toward Wain. He absorbed it and sighed with pleasure.

[You absorbed a large amount of pure energy.]

[Majesty Crystal filled to 100%.]

[You have increased your Majesty by 1.]

Majesty Crystal accumulated pure energy and turned it into Majesty, this was one of the most effective ways to increase Majesty. It only needed one valuable resource, Soul Pearls, and as many as possible.

'Fine, that's enough...' Wain muttered inwardly.

[Your Majesty equals 5.]

[You have met the final conditions for the third evolution.]

[Your Majesty has reached 5, and your a Beyond begins to change. The next changes will occur when your Majesty reaches 10.]

Whooooooooosh.

A massive stream of gray energy erupted from Wain, and the space around him trembled.

"What's going on?" Keith became alert.

"Nothing at all. Apparently, his Beyond is awakening, he's reached the requisite amount of Majesty. Eh, it's such a wonderful feeling. I'll never forget the first time it happened to me." Osvald shook his head.

The flow of energy slowed and completely covered Wain. It was as if he was in a cocoon, and only after a few minutes did the energy begin dissipate.

Two more eyes appeared on the crown, which became slightly lower and emanated eerie, dark energy. Two eye tattoos appeared on Wain's arms, and his jaw was covered in ancient runes.

[Your Beyond, Calamity, has evolved. You gained a new ability, 'Harbinger of Calamity.

[Harbinger of Calamity (Unique)

Use the power of destruction and summon the Eye of Calamity. The Eye will shatter the space around you and, at your command, will unleash all its energy on a single target. It will be a single but extremely powerful blow].

"How does it feel?" Osvald patted Wain on the shoulder.

"It feels great. I finally feel like I'm much stronger, and now I can start the third evolution."

"Great, but take your time. I have to teach you the techniques first."

"Sure." Wain nodded and grabbed the other two Pearls. He absorbed them, and the area shook.

[Your Majesty raised to 6.]

[Majesty Crystal filled to 20%.]

"That's it. We can finally get out of here." Keith muttered.

"See you later." Osvald extended his hand to Keith, "Waiting for you in my area."

"Sure, I'll be sure to come." Keith shook his hand.

"Let's go."

"Yes!"

Keith swung his hand like a blade, and a spatial rift appeared in the air. He and his partners jumped in, and the passage closed.

"Wain, we have to go too. This area will be a pile of rubble floating in the Void in an hour."

"Yeah, but I'd like to say goodbye to the villagers."

"Huh, I didn't know you were so sentimental."

"You're one to talk." Wain shook his head as he jumped high up.

Osvald followed him, and ten minutes later, they reached the village.

"What's going on here...?" Osvald muttered.

The villagers were in a panic. They ran from house to house as if they were trying to find something.

"Looks like not everyone can get out of here as freely as Keith."

"Yeah... We need to find out what's wrong."

Wain and Osvald entered the village and headed for the old man's house. Irma and Franzi were standing at the entrance, and they were actively discussing something, Franzi was concerned, and Irma was annoyed.

"What kind of chaos is going on here? Have you all gone crazy?" Wain said as he approached them.

"Wain, Osvald!" The girls exclaimed simultaneously.

"Hey, he's right. Why haven't you all left yet? In about ten minutes, the ground will start to break into pieces, and you'll be in danger."

"We can't!"

"Hmm?"

"Don't you have enough power to open a spatial rift?"

"No, that's not it." Franzi shook her head, "We don't know where to go. The spatial rift doesn't lead us home anymore, we don't know what to do about it."

"I think we should just leave, and that's it!" Irma exclaimed, "It doesn't matter where we end up. If we stay here, we're definitely going to die. Damn Franzi, why are you being such a coward?"

"Calm down girls. The problem isn't that serious." Osvald said.

"Is it? Maybe you know where we can go?" Irma looked at him intently.

"Well...no." Osvald shrugged. He only had the unique Void he had been in for a long time, in which he could not help the villagers.

"Wain, maybe you can tell us where to go?"

"Hmm..." Wain pondered. He hadn't anticipated that the villagers would encounter such a problem.

"It certainly happened because of the merging of worlds." Osvald muttered, "I wouldn't advise you to go anywhere unknown. It is too dangerous. You might end up in a place where you can't last a day."

"We understand that, but we have no other option!"

"We don't." Wain said suddenly, "I have one place for you. I'm sure it's the best you can get."
