Nameless King

Chapter 567 The Form

"30%? Isn't that too much? Are you sure one berry was supposed to have that much effect?" Wain asked with a confused look as he didn't believe such a thing was possible.

"Of course." Aurora waved her hand, "What do you take me for? I've had to award some Fourth Chronicle people before, so I'm fully confident in the accuracy of the result."

"But... 30%... Doesn't that mean you can get to the Fifth Chronicle right away if you eat a few of those berries?" Alas asked as he stared at Aurora.

"Are all Elves really that stupid?" Aurora frowned, "It's obvious that such a powerful effect will only happen the first time. The more you eat berries like this, the more you have resistance to it. This works the same way with poisons."

"Well... You're definitely not the nicest woman that I've met." Alas muttered and pushed his chair away from Aurora as far as possible.

"What did you say? Don't forget, I could rip your head off at any moment!" Aurora uttered with a furious look as purple lightning bolts appeared beside her.

"Watch what you say, lady!" The Royal Spirit said, "You better keep explaining, they all need to know what happens after Third Chronicle to understand better how this world works."

Aurora remained silent, and in time, her aura calmed down. She understood that the Royal Spirit was right, but sometimes there was nothing she could do about her temper.

"Okay, just listen to me carefully." Aurora waved her hand, "As you've all noticed by now, Wain has moved on to the Fourth Chronicle, I don't know how that happened, but it doesn't matter anymore. Every Chronicle has something unique, whether it's Concept or Martial Essence, but in Third Chronicle, things are starting to change slowly."

"Are you talking about World Impact?" Ern asked while chewing on a huge piece of meat, some of which was dangling from his mouth.

'God, I'm talking to idiots.' Aurora inwardly muttered as she slapped her palm across her face.

"Yeah. World Impact is the first step that pretty much separates those who are at Third Chronicle or higher from those who haven't yet reached that level. Not only are you stronger than them because your Chronicle is higher, but also because your relevance in the world is much higher than theirs."

Aurora continued, "Obviously, it's not as simple as we'd like it to be. The higher the Chronicle, the harder it is to get to a higher level, everyone knows that. The creatures in Fifth Chronicle strive to become literal gods. Surely some of you have already faced an opponent that used the power of the Cult, right? Angels and Elves like to do it even before Fifth Chronicle."

Ern, Alas, and Erza looked at Aurora with confused looks as they had never heard of such a thing. They were still in the Third Chronicle and did not know many of the mysteries of this world.

However, Wain's look was different from theirs. After Aurora's words, the scene of one of his life's hardest and best fights appeared before him.

'Right... I'd forgotten all about that... That Elf... What was his name? He rose and grew stronger time after time because of what the other Elves sincerely believed in him, but that belief was not as friends, but as followers.' Wain inwardly muttered.

"Hey! Haven't any of you ever fought such opponents?" Aurora uttered with a puzzled look.

"I am. It was one of the hardest but best battles of my life." Wain uttered in a serious voice as he spoke the plain truth.

"I see. That's what the Fifth Chronicle usually does, but a lot of people try to get their Cult in the Fourth Chronicle. It's kind of like training."

"Why are you telling us all this?" Erza asked, "I thought you were going to explain to us how Fourth Chronicle is different and why Wain got a lot less energy than you thought."

"Pfft, there's nothing to discuss here. You have no idea how upset I am." Aurora waved her hand, "Wain got as much energy as the others, the fact that his second torch was only 1% full means he needs a fucking lot of energy, just an unimaginable amount. Maybe that's not a bad thing, since usually those who need a lot of energy after the fifth evolution become stronger than the others, but this is the first time I've seen anyone need as much as Wain."

"You're all worried for nothing. I'm sure it won't be a problem for Wain. All he has to do is get a few dozen times more Soul Essence than the others. It's just a matter of time." Ern muttered with a careless look.

"What is the difference between the Fourth and Third Chronicle?" Alas asked while taking one of the fruits from his plate, "What do we have to do to be able to reach the Fifth Chronicle?"

"Actually, I was trying to give you tips on what to do in Fifth Chronicle, but since you want to know, I'll let it. Besides your personal conditions that everyone has are different, you have to fulfill something, as without it you cannot evolve further." Aurora spoke.

Everyone looked at her with curious looks. Alas, Ern and Erza were still in the Third Chronicle, but each of them had been at this stage for a long time, and the berries that they ate today had helped them get closer to the border, so very soon, they would be on the same stage as Wain.

"You must open your Form." Aurora uttered.

"The Form? What is that? Are you talking about a suit? Are we supposed to find some kind of armor? What kind of strange name is that?" Ern asked while in confusion.

"I guess the more meat you eat, the dumber you get." Aurora shook her head in a mocking manner, "The Form is the hidden power of your Souls, I mean real Souls, not the ones now in your Soul Altars."

"What...?"
