Nameless King

Chapter 809 Intervention

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Wain was preparing for the next attack while Virion was quickly trying to think of what artifact to use to counter Wain's unusual power, as suddenly the ground trembled.

A shudder came from beneath the hills, mountains, and rocks around the shining tree as massive cracks appeared in the center of the forest. From beneath the rubble of the earth, the massive paw of some creature with a frightening aura appeared outward. A similar situation occurred in four other places around the tree with a total of five creatures.

"What the hell...?" Wain muttered with a confused look as he glanced at Virion. Wain thought he did it, but Virion was even more shocked than he was.

'Huge Monsters...? Fuck! Why did they show up here?! Wain is unlikely to escape... but nothing should stop us from fighting!' Virion inwardly exclaimed as he frowned and clenched his hand into a fist.

They slowly emerged from beneath the ground with scarlet, eerie eyes burning as though ghostly lanterns. Their gazes were fixed on the top of the shining tree, and nothing else mattered to them.

Beside each massive monster were many others, smaller ones, but they possessed an aura on the edge of the Fourth Chronicle.

Whooooooooooooosh.

Wain took a step forward as suddenly he felt an incredible pressure with shivers running through his body. He turned around and his gaze met Alucard's. The Vampire Progenitor was staring at him intently, spreading an eerie aura as if he was ready to act at any moment.

'What...? Who is that man? Why is he looking at me like that?' Wain said to himself as Alucard's gaze shifted to the monsters, then back to Wain.

'This is the Vampire Progenitor.' The Abyss Artist said in a serious voice, 'If you're wondering how strong he is, he's only a little finger strong enough to kill you, but in this case, he works as an arbiter.'

Wain nodded slightly and his eyes widened as he realized why Alucard was looking at him, 'I see... He's asking me if he should interfere... He doesn't seem to want to get in our way, but he also doesn't want anyone else to do it...'

After a few seconds, Wain shook his head and headed for the edge of the tree.

"Hey! Where are you going?" Virion exclaimed as he waved his hand.

Wain turned around, stared at him, and in an ice-cold voice said, "Don't bother me. I just want to deal with the uninvited guests. Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere, at the end of our fight there will only be one survivor and I assure you it won't be you."

Virion got goosebumps from Wain's soul-piercing gaze as after a while a slight smile appeared on his face.

"Fine, in that case, I won't stand in your way. If you are foolish enough to waste energy on such powerful monsters, your words are not destined to come true. Dealing with these monsters won't be easy, so for me, that's what I need you to do." Virion said in a careless manner as he shrugged. He looked relaxed, but his eyes kept glancing at Wain, expecting a sudden attack from him.

Wain answered nothing, he just extended his hand forward as dark electric sparks appeared around his palm.

"Hahaha, looks like he decided he didn't need my help. Fine, let's see what the heir to the Nameless King is capable of with his Beyond." Alucard said with an excited expression as a devious smirk formed on his face.

"But why are they awake? These monsters are the kind that prefers to slowly absorb energy into themselves, ignoring the fights." Gael muttered while rubbing his chin in a thoughtful manner, "They're not usually very good fighters, but because of the sheer amount of energy they're so damn resilient and attract other similar monsters to them."

"Well... They haven't acted all this time, but his Beyond has a totally unique energy, so they just couldn't resist that kind of temptation." Alucard muttered as he stared at Virion, 'Unlike the impulsive Wain, he's calmer, but really they're both monsters...'

Others could not notice it, only feel it, but Alucard's vision was different, so he could clearly see the two crimson hearths that completely filled the top of the shining tree. Their sources were Wain and Virion, as they exuded such murderous intent that it was almost palpable.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Suddenly the clouds thickened in the sky as Wain's gaze fell on the three massive monsters ahead. He clenched his palm in a fist as thunder rumbled. At the same time, the clouds grew much darker, starting to swirl like a vortex.

'Agh... It was harder than I thought, but if I don't try to learn my Beyond's new abilities, I'll start to regress...' Wain muttered inwardly as he pointed his hand at the central monster, indicating a finger at it.

Suddenly, phantom eerie jaws began to appear among the clouds, which flew around like ghosts as a massive eye with a dark, like an abyss, pupil opened in the center of the vortex.

Wain let out an aura and a massive lightning bolt burst from the eye like a laser from the Death Star. The pillar of thunder was covered in a layer of multiple jaws, heading downward with the lightning.

The monster shuddered in fear as it tried to defend itself from an attack that was sure to kill it. Several pillars of ice emerged from the ground as the massive beast used most of its energy to create the strongest ice shield possible.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

The thunderbolt instantly shattered the shield, meeting little or no resistance as dark lightning struck the ground, right in front of the monster.

"Fuck... I didn't think it would be this powerful..." Wain muttered as suddenly he was illuminated by a bright flash of light as well as all around the glowing tree.

The flash of light was replaced by a massive black dome with an indescribable amount of energy inside. The dome shrank sharply into a small sphere as all the power erupted, shaking the earth.
