Nameless King-Chapter 840 Barrier
"Damn... Looks like there won't be an interesting ending." Alucard said with a disappointed look while shaking his head.
"Yeah... I don't think he has any chance of surviving, let alone winning." Gael nodded slightly as he let out a sigh, "Either way it was a great fight. No one could have known that this guy would steal the Azure Horn and hide it in his soul."
The others had the same opinion as regardless of strength level, everyone understood that Wain's journey was over. His wounds were too severe, the fact that he could stand on his feet was already a miracle in itself.
"Are we just going to stand and watch?" Marlis asked with her arms crossed over her chest.
Sven was silent for a while before he quietly replied, "Exactly. Do you think we can help him? This barrier is impossible to break, at least not right now. Inside it's pretty fragile, a few attacks would be enough for me, but outside... it's just impossible." 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚w𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m
"Hey, doesn't that mean Wain will die? I mean... I'm not willing to sacrifice anything for him, but I liked this kid. Without him, this world won't be as interesting as it is now. This world needs someone like Nameless King, or someone will definitely take it over one day." Osvald frowned as his aura intensified.
Sven waved his hand, "Calm down and just watch. Nameless King has also found himself in dangerous situations many times, so Wain should be able to handle it."
"Hmm... That doesn't sound like you at all... Didn't you spend much effort to make Wain stronger? Damn, you even saved him once and made me do it a second time! What are you up to?!" Marlis exclaimed pointing at Sven while her face grew angrier.
Sven turned his head as his icy eyes brought a powerful pressure down on Marlis. A shiver went through her body and Sven said, "Marlis, do you think I can see the future? I could not assume that this Arkan had stolen the Azure Horn. All I have is one theory and the longer the fight goes on the less chance I have of being right, but it's still not 0%."
Marlis nodded as she looked at the top of the shining tree, where the final action could take place at any moment.
Whooooooooosh.
Virion ran up to Wain, stopped right in front of him, and did a full turn at breakneck speed as his foot rushed toward Wain with a powerful blue flame.
Wain was seriously wounded, but he could have had time to block this attack, however, instead of a full block he just ducked slightly as Virion's leg came down on his left side, breaking several of his ribs.
"Hmm? What? Are you already so weak that you can't block one attack? Well, it's probably my fault. You're already at death's door, so it's to be expected." Virion said coldly as he looked at Wain lying on the ground. Darkness struggled to keep the blood from gushing out of his wounds while Wain slowly tried to get up.
"Hah, are you so self-righteous that you can't see the obvious...?" Wain said with difficulty as a slight smirk appeared on his face.
"What the hell...? What the hell are you talking about?" Virion frowned as he didn't like Wain's expression at all, as if Wain had deceived him.
"You seem to have completely forgotten where our fight began. That's your big mistake." Wain uttered with an exhausted look before reaching out his hand to the side.
Click.
The air rippled from his fingertip as if he'd touched something, but there seemed to be nothing there.
Virion's eyes went wide as he realized that Wain was right in front of the barrier that separated the monster with the sword part from their fight.
"Hmmm... Damn, I didn't expect you to be capable of such cunning plans in your condition... but, that doesn't change anything. You couldn't destroy that barrier before, do you really think you can do it now?" Virion frowned as he swung his spear, releasing powerful waves of flame, causing the air around him to distort.
"Yeah... You're right, I'm not as strong as I used to be, and a full sword can hardly help me defeat you, but you know what?" Wain looked directly into Virion's eyes as his cold gaze made him flinch, "I have nothing left to lose. Either you die or I do, so now nothing else matters but victory." 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m
Wain shook his head slightly as the crown fell on his hand and rolled to his palm. At the same moment, all the energy from his Beyond concentrated on the tip of his finger as the pupil of the eye on the crown shrank. Space trembled as cracks appeared in the crown, destroying it completely and releasing massive amounts of energy outward.
Crack. Crack. Crack.
The barrier shuddered as it began to shatter rapidly into tiny fragments. At the same time, Wain lunged forward, he could hardly stand on his feet, but he could still stride forward, gradually passing through the barrier and moving toward the monster.
"No!" Virion exclaimed as he reached out his hand increasing the pressure on the barrier. He didn't know what would happen if Wain recovered his sword and he didn't want to test it.
"Agh!" Blood came out of Wain's mouth as he fell to one knee, but he continued forward. He needed to walk a few more meters to get to the monster, but the pressure was getting stronger as Virion used a huge amount of energy. Eventually, Wain fell to one knee, having only made it halfway through the barrier.
"You are completely out of energy, so this decision was your fatal mistake! Die already at last!" Virion exclaimed as he clenched his hand into a fist, unleashing a multi-ton force on Wain.
'Fuck... Looks like I'll really have to use everything I've got...' Wain inwardly muttered as for a moment his consciousness shifted to his soul. It trembled violently, then began burning, releasing an indescribable amount of energy.
