Nameless King

"Well, well, I guess I can commend myself properly. I couldn't believe it until the end, but I've been right since we first met." Sven muttered with a slight smile before stepping forward.

Marlis and Osvald just stood there with their eyes and mouths wide open, it seemed their jaws could drop to the ground at any moment. They were experienced fighters, so they were used to reacting to the unexpected, but this was too much.

'What the hell...? Sven had assumed from the beginning that Wain was the real Nameless King...?!' Marlis exclaimed to herself while in disbelief.

'Damn... I knew Sven is clever but was it possible to guess...?' Osvald wondered as a chill ran down his back.

Sven turned around and said relaxedly, 'Hahaha, don't look so surprised, I was giving this theory a maximum of 3% success rate. Nameless King was actually able to fool the world, I just happened to be the one who was willing to believe in a miracle."

Sven's silhouette blurred, then he appeared atop the shining tree, next to Wain.

"Hey, Wain Norheim, long time no see, or Nameless King, that would be more correct in this situation, wouldn't it?" Sven said with a sly grin while slowly waving his hand.

'Hah, what a bastard... He might not have emphasized it so much.' Wain inwardly muttered as he sighed, there was nothing more he could do, everyone heard Sven.

Even though it was obvious, it wasn't until Sven said it that the realization came to everyone that they now knew what the famous Nameless King looked like and even what his name was.

"Wait... That's right, Nameless King never revealed his identity... Perhaps no one knew what he really looked like at all, but now we can all see it..." The man on the God Stage muttered with a dazed look.

"Damn... I wasn't sure if I should have come here, but I actually witnessed a lot of unique events..." The girl flinched as her gaze went to Wain.

Then, all eyes were focused on him, it seemed that even those who weren't around the shining tree were looking at him, as this was an event of historical proportions.

"I have a question. Wain Norheim is that your real name...? I mean, five hundred years ago, was it the same?" Sven asked, continuing to reveal more and more information about the mysterious earlier man.

Everyone held their breath waiting for his answer, it seemed that the name was something commonplace and it shouldn't be that interesting to others, but not when it came to the Nameless King.

"If I were in a different situation, I would make you seriously regret what you said." Wain said seriously as his eyes became as cold as deadly blades, "However, I will answer, consider it a thank you for what you did long ago."

Sven's eyes went wide as he was surprised, then a slight smile appeared on his face, "Fine, that's fair."

"Yes, Wain Norheim is my real name. It is the name of the one who bore the Title - Nameless King five hundred years ago and today I am back. It is really me, so I want everyone who is here now to spread the news around the world." Wain's voice was like thunder entering everyone's mind as people were mesmerized for a moment.

Clap. Clap. Clap.

Sven began to clap his hands slowly with narrowed eyes, "Nice, that's what I was hoping to hear. You have the right name and look for your status, honestly I imagined you about that, even when you were hiding your body with darkness."

"You and I will have much to discuss, but not now." Wain said seriously as he looked directly into Sven's eyes.

Sven nodded, "Sure, I understand. You know where to find me, come back anytime, but I'd advise you to hurry as things are starting to speed up now."

"Yeah... What practically stopped for five hundred years is now in motion. I have a lot of work to do, but I'll be sure to come to you soon." Wain spoke softly so that only Sven could hear him, then he turned around to look at the audience.

His aura intensified as the massive silhouette of some creature with a huge creepy jaw appeared above him. Many eyes opened on the creature's head as each was aimed at some viewer inflicting fear on them.

"The show is over, get out of here, you have five seconds or I will get to each of you personally and I guarantee, you will not like it." Wain said calmly, but his voice was like the whisper of the ghost of death making cold sweat appear on people's foreheads.

Whooooooooooooosh.

In a second all the hills and cliffs were empty, and the terrified onlookers turned into flashes, walking as far away from the glowing tree as possible. It affected everyone, even those on the God Stage, so now there were only a few people left.

"Hah, that was really scary. Alia, how are you feeling?" Gael asked as he turned to his assistant.

Alia stayed where she was, but her legs were shaking violently and her eyes were wide in fear, about the same with Krakos.

"So his name is Wain... I mean, I knew that before, but I didn't know it was Nameless King's name. Damn, that's pretty confusing but pretty damn interesting." Alucard smiled while scratching the back of his head in an awkward manner, "Well, I guess it's time for us to go too. The main show's over, so there's no point in us staying here anymore."

"I agree. We can talk to him a little later." Gael nodded before swinging his sword. The four of them were covered in streams of ash, then they disappeared, leaving the hill empty.

Aside from Sven, Osvald, and Marlis who hadn't left yet, the only ones Wain didn't scare were the three girls he had a special relationship with.

'Aurora... I have something to discuss with you too.' Wain muttered inwardly as he looked at her.
