Nameless King

Wain met the representatives of Beastfolk for the first time. He did not know what they could do, but their attack failed, and Wain had no trouble opening their hiding place.

The Beastfolks looked at him in surprise. They wondered if it was worth continuing the attack since their hideout had been destroyed, and now they would not be able to launch a surprise attack.

Wain didn't wait, he ran towards them and swung his sword once more using the second orb.

His enemies bounced to the sides and looked at each other. They decided there was no point in retreating after their enemy had used such a powerful skill twice.

Beastfolks decided that Wain had less than half his energy left. They didn't know it was a single skill.

Whooooooosh.

The Beastfolks, with their bows, drew their bowstring, and two arrows flew toward Wain. The arrows flew close to each other, and each had a feature.

The left arrow had a scarlet flame at the tip, and the right arrow had electric discharges, these elements the archers possessed.

The arrows turned into one fiery bolt of lightning and struck Wain. He bounced to the side, and the ground beneath him exploded. A pillar of scarlet flame rose high up, turning the field into lifeless earth.

Then Beastfolk jumped into the pillar of flame with his shield and massive sword. He flew through the flames and brought the sword down on Wain.

Wain frowned and threw the sword sharply at his attacker. The weapon pierced Beasfolk's shoulder and threw him back toward the pillar of flame. The last black orb exploded, and there was a deafening explosion combining black lightning and scarlet flames.

However, after this attack, Beastfolk did not die. He created a stone barrier around himself at the last moment, and his shield shone brightly, creating a protective field around him.

'I see, he's a defensive type, but judging by his face, he spent a lot of energy to survive this situation.' Wain thought and extended his hand forward.

A platinum sword flew out of Beasfolk's body and headed toward Wain.

"Hey, who are you?" Beastfolk said with a menacing groan with his sword.

They decided to attack Wain for the simple reason that, like the Beasfolks of the Cat Clan, they had keen eyesight. Beastfolks saw the number of minutes in the palm of Wain's hand and decided it was a good opportunity to get closer to their main goal, to collect a million.

The Beasfolks knew that Wain must be strong since he could collect over ten thousand minutes so quickly, but they were confident in their abilities.

"Does it matter? I haven't time to talk to overgrown cats." Wain said coldly, and wind-up gloves appeared on his hands.

He dashed forward and instantly found himself in front of his enemy. The ground beneath his feet cracked, unable to withstand the powerful momentum.

Beastfolk frowned and thrust his shield forward. He blocked Wain's first blow, but then his shield began to shake violently. This was due to Wain, who swung his sword like a madman.

Wain gradually sped up and struck more and more blows per second. Beastfolk was shocked, he was used to fighting, alternating between attack and defense, but now he could do nothing but hold his shield tightly.

Wain's rush was swift and formidable, each blow leaving a deep cut on his shield and forcing Beastfolk to pull back, but the cat had one advantage. He was not fighting alone.

Whoooooosh.

Two magical circles appeared above Wain in the air, and a hail of flame and lightning arrows rained down on him.

However, Wain did not retreat as the Beastfolks had hoped. He grabbed his shield with his hand and turned sharply, pulling it out of Beastfolk's hands.

Beastfolk didn't expect that Wain decided to do something like that and tried to take the shield, but Wain threw it aside with a powerful punch of his fist and hid under the shield.

The arrows could not penetrate the sturdy shield, which did not break even under the barrage of Wain's blows. However, when the skills came to an end, the shield was in an unusable state. Many small explosions completely destroyed its protective structure.

When the Beastfolks realized that all of their attacks hadn't even left a scratch on Wain, they realized that they had no chance to win. The Archers retreated to the side and disappeared into the woods.

The third Beastfolk headed after them, he thought Wain would chase them, but he didn't.

Wain headed toward the ice lands where there was a huge wyvern. The Ring of Damned glowed brightly, and a white pill appeared in his hand, he swallowed it, and his eyes sparkled.

This pill was one of the most valuable pills Lui Bu and Edena had given him.

With It, Wain regained some of his energy and also accelerated his replenishment rate by 30% within an hour. He had to be ready to fight a creature whose soul was Legendary Rated.

Wain didn't try to catch up with the fleeing Beastfolks. It was irrational. Sure, he wanted to tear them apart, they attacked him and had to pay for it, but it wasn't worth it.

If he ran after them into the woods, they would try to fight back. Eventually, Wain would probably win, but he would waste a lot of time and effort.

Time was the most valuable thing on this island, and that applied to everything from the timer on his arm to his decision-making.

There was no point in wasting time on three Beastfolks who had nothing. There were only nine places, and Wain had to do whatever it took to be one of them.

'Hmm, everyone from the Pillars came to the island, without exception. There are now twelve different races here, not counting the monsters. Not all of the Pillars will be able to pass the test, but why did the cards appear in their worlds as well? Why did the island appear on this planet? Damn, for some reason, that worries me.' Wain pondered as he crossed the border of forests and fields and entered the icy lands.

The wyvern slept among four tall, icy rocks reaching almost to the clouds. They were like the pillars on which the island's northern part was held.

Wain jumped forward and climbed up the icy rocks. There were mostly ice peaks, frozen hills, and various slopes and cliffs.

There were a few trees in the ice lands, and they were vast and large. Their bark was silver, and their leaves were as white as snow. They shone beautifully in the sunlight and exuded a strong chill.

Crackling.

Suddenly there was a rumbling sound in the distance. Wain turned around and saw a massive pillar of light around which there were several rings of light. The higher up was the point, the wider the rings were. They tapered from top to bottom.

It was on the west part of the island, in the land of darkness. A black rat was one of the four beasts with Legendary Soul.

The rings sharply compressed, and a deafening explosion destroyed part of the dark lands. The attack was so powerful that even Wain was blasted with the wind because of the terrible shockwave.

The ground shook and turned into waves that moved away from the epicenter of the explosion. The nearby areas were severely damaged, some trees were destroyed, and rivers changed their course.

Then a bright, orange glow appeared in the same place. It could be compared to a huge star shining in space and outshining everything else.

Wain looked at the black rat's body and realized that someone had already defeated one of the four beasts and gotten Legendary Soul.

[Number of challengers: 1/9]

This message appeared in front of everyone after an explosion on the west side of the island. People were shocked, they didn't understand how it was possible to possess such crushing power while in the First Chronicle.

Wain was just as surprised, but something else caught his attention.

'This energy... It's familiar to me. This is the third time I've felt it. The first time was when the world tried to exile me, and the second time was when a huge pillar of light appeared in the distance. Then the spatial barrier weakened, and hundreds of monsters descended on the city...' Wain pondered.

"Okay, it's not that important now, I'll find out soon enough, but I need to be one of the contenders for this." Wain uttered and turned toward the ice pillars in the distance.

He looked coldly at the wyvern, which, as if sensing his gaze, opened its eyes slightly. The wyvern sighed lightly, and a magical circle appeared high in the sky, covering half the area.
