Chapter 698 Fate

Name:Nameless King Author:Arlemit
Wain wasn't going to stay in Human World any longer, so he headed straight for the portal he had come from.

The guards didn't dare stop him and just let him go ahead, without any checks.

'Great, that went better than I expected,' Wain inwardly muttered while heading towards the portal, 'Thanks to Gisle's performance, Human World and Last Light will begin to cooperate with each other. I learned about the dark mist being in Alice's world, that is, in all three worlds, but for some reason, the dark mist is different in each world.'

'In my world it was aggressive, destroying all life in its path. In Alice's world, the dark mist is calm and as if trying to protect something. In Gisle's world, the fog was part of the world as it contributed to the Dungeons. Agh... It's all too complicated. Well, Erza looks like he'll finally get off my back, at least I hope so.' Wain said to himself as he stepped onto the stone platform.

Whooooooooosh.

Suddenly a silhouette in a black cape with purple lightning discharges appeared before him.

"Leaving already?" Aurora asked with a serious look, "Don't you want to stay here a little longer?"

"Well, it's not a bad town, that's true, but I have things to do, now is not the time to rest. You should understand that better than anyone else, shouldn't you?" Wain said in a calm voice while his deep eyes pierced hers.

"Things? With whom?" Aurora asked as she crossed her arms.

'ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ Novel(B) in.ᴄᴏᴍ ᴛᴏ ᴇxᴘᴇʀɪᴇɴᴄᴇ ꜰᴀsᴛᴇʀ ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ sᴘᴇᴇᴅ.',

"Hmm? That's none of your business." Wain uttered with an ice-cold look as his aura intensified.

"Huh, you're still as arrogant as ever, I like that." Aurora grinned as her eyes sparkled, "I've tested Gisle's strength, but what about you? If he is the leader of the humans in a World of Destiny, you are their most powerful weapon, aren't you?"

Wain remained silent as he just moved forward, completely ignoring her.

A sly smile appeared on Aurora's face as she released some of her aura, then Wain felt incredible pressure.

A shiver went through his entire body as the stone slab beneath him cracked. He felt as if he was at the bottom of the deep ocean, under the pressure of several kilometers of water.

'Does she want to fight?' Wain inwardly muttered as he glanced at Aurora, 'No, it doesn't look like it.'

Wain continued walking on as if nothing was happening. Each step was harder for him as Aurora released more and more energy, but he didn't stop until he reached the center of the platform.

"Well, why did you do that?" Wain asked with a calm look while looking at the platform.

The footprints of his boots were imprinted on the stone as part of the platform was shattered by massive cracks.

,m "You've gotten a lot stronger, that's good." Aurora smiled as she touched her lips, "I can't wait until you reach the Fifth Chronicle. Then you will come close to the power that Nameless King possessed."

"Aurora... You're too stubborn..." Wain muttered in a calm voice, stared at her, and darkness appeared between his green eyes, as though in the abyss.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

A mighty flood of darkness erupted from Wain, and it seemed no less faint than Aurora's. His hair rose as his coat fluttered like a powerful gust of wind.

'

"Don't forget, I still haven't decided what you are to me, friend or foe, but whatever I decide, you must always remember one thing." Wain said in a deadly voice before stepping forward.

Crackle.

The stone platform that could withstand Aurora's pressure shattered into tiny shards as though Wain's step weighed several tons. The shards hung in the air as thin strands of darkness emanated from them.

"I don't know how it came to be that I am the heir of the Nameless King, but remember, I have always been and always will be just me! My name is Wain Norheim, and nothing else!" Wain said in a thunderous voice.

Whooooosh.

At the same time, the shards flew away in a powerful burst of energy. They pierced the nearest columns as some of them lodged in the walls of the castle.

"How is that possible...?" One of the guards muttered while in disbelief, "The castle walls are protected by several layers of incredibly strong barriers!"

"I don't know... but it looks like we're damn lucky not to get hit..." His buddy uttered as he touched the scratch on his face from which drips of blood flowed.

Aurora stared at him for a moment, then she turned and headed for the exit.

"I know your name very well, but there is no escaping fate." Aurora said in a calm voice, "Sooner or later you will have to take the path that fate has chosen for you. You will take the throne where the Nameless King once sat."

'Tsk. What a bitch. Fate... She brought it up again, do I really have no choice and it will happen anyway?' Wain muttered inwardly as his aura calmed, 'No! It won't happen!'

While the guards were in shock, Wain activated the magic circle and entered the portal.

"Damn, he's not afraid to be mean to Miss Aurora... This is unbelievable." One of them muttered with a dazed look.

"Yeah, I think that's what Miss Aurora wanted to see. No one can ever control someone like him, though unfortunately, she's right, there's no hiding from fate, no one." Guardians Commander said with a serious look as he crossed his arms.

Whooooooooosh.

Wain dashed through the purple tunnel and into Gisle's office. For the first time in a long time, the wooden desk was as empty as the towers of documents.

"Huh, sometimes I think I'm damn lucky to have Gisle, Elsa, and the others doing this... This job, while important, is too boring." Wain muttered with a slight smile on his face.

'Wain, it's time.' Gladius said in a calm voice.

"Sure." Wain nodded before heading into the next room.

Click.

He opened the door.

"Yes!!!" Zero exclaimed with a happy look as she raised her hands up.

"I finally beat you!" Zero said while pointing at Kadridas.

"Well, I just took some young man's advice." Kadridas said as he turned to Wain.

Wain stared intently into his eyes as if to let him know why he had arrived here.

"Huh, looks like you didn't come here to watch us play, right?" Kadridas said with a slight smile on his face.
