Nameless King-Chapter 879 Ice Island
Eva's eyes went wide while Wain's words coursed through her mind time after time like a storm as her cheeks gradually grew redder.
"What did you say...? Do you want to start a family with me?" Eva muttered uncertainly as goosebumps ran down her body, "Is this a marriage proposal?"
"Hahaha, maybe, but I don't think now is the best time to get married. However, I'm totally serious about a family that won't just be you and me as members." Wain said as his gaze shifted from her face to his palm pressed against her stomach.
Eva quickly understood what Wain was talking about and she just stayed quiet, being speechless as she just didn't understand how she should have reacted. She had never been in a serious relationship, so something like this just stunned her, though deep down inside she was immensely happy about it.
Wain smiled slightly, giving her some time to come to her senses. He was nervous too, but considering how many dangerous situations he had been through in his life, he had more fortitude.
"I'm glad you decided to offer me this..." Eva whispered as the corners of her mouth rose, forming a joyful smile, "In that case, I hope the Great War ends as soon as possible so you can be free."
Wain nodded, pulled Eva close to him, and for quite some time didn't let go, they both seemed to enjoy this moment where words weren't necessary.
"You're leaving already, right?" Eva asked after an unknown amount of time.
"Yes." Wain nodded confidently, stroking her head, "I still have a few things to work out before I start getting my power back. I don't know how quickly I'll do that, but we'll definitely meet again before the Great War begins."
"Ughum." Eva shook her head.
Wain spent some more time with Eva until he opened a spatial rift, disappearing into it. Eva was left alone among the fields of scarlet flowers, as suddenly two red flashes appeared beside her, those were the girl guards who had met Wain.
"Miss Eva, is everything alright?" One of them asked with a worried look.
Eva nodded, turned to them, and said, "Sure, today is one of the best days of my life. I didn't know a few words could make it so good."
At the same moment, tears came out of her eyes, slowly streaming down her red cheeks. The girls were puzzled as they looked at each other but said nothing.
...
Wain found himself in the midst of the vast darkness as there were several doors before him. He looked at the simple wooden door leading to the familiar bar with a complicated expression.
'Well, well, I think I'm going to learn a lot, but I have to see someone else first. Agh, I've always been a bad ruler, since I can't even make sure I devote enough time to my own Void.' Wain inwardly muttered while shaking his head as he turned towards the massive ice gate.
The gate had changed slightly in recent times as it had become eerier, with multiple eyes and shards of dark crown hovering around it while streams of darkness flowed from the edges.
"I hope Elegan was able to manage such a large area because I'm going to make It even bigger." Wain smiled weakly before touching the gate, and slowly opening it.
Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.
A wave of cold rushed out as a bright flash blinded Wain for a moment, causing him to squeeze his eyes shut.
He appeared not in the standard location that was the depths of the ice funnel but at the edge of an icy bluff overlooking a wide snowy wilderness, a magical forest, and a dark ashy land with a malevolent aura.
"Agh... In the forest near Merge Island the air would actually be nice, but here... Damn, I feel like I'm in the mountains. It's just unbelievable." Wain muttered with a satisfied smile.
Wain looked around, looking for someone he knew, but he didn't have to wait long as a blue flash was already headed toward him. 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮
Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.
A tall man with long white hair and a sharp gaze appeared behind him, making the ice crack because of the weight of his armor and the massive sword behind his back.
"Well, well, Frigus, you've grown stronger than I thought." Wain turned with a slight smile, feeling the knight's powerful aura that actually surpassed the Absolute Stage, "You reached the Demigod Stage even faster than I did. That's more than impressive." f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶
"Hah, I won't hide it was difficult, but I still feel like I have a long way to go to your level. You've changed a lot haven't you?" Frigus grinned intently looking at Wain. He had expected Wain to reach Fifth Chronicle as well, but Frigus could not have imagined that Wain's energy would be so dense, times stronger than his.
"Yeah. I must talk to you, I have much to tell you. Where's Elegan? I need him to get everyone in one place." Wain asked, looking around, trying to feel his aura.
Frigus was silent for a while before he crossed his arms and looked up with a smirk, "There. Elegan specifically created this place for the leaders of the territories."
Wain was puzzled as he raised his head and his eyes went wide.
A massive island floated above the ice zone that was the main one as if an iceberg had separated from the glacier and soared high up. Beneath the island were several purple magic circles, allowing something so large to float and not fall.
"Hahaha, not bad, not bad at all. Elegan sure knows how to allocate resources! In that case, let's go straight to him." Wain exclaimed with an excited expression.
"Sure. I'm sure he'll be glad to see you. He's been worried about you for some reason the last few days, saying you might even die." Frigus muttered with a confused look, "His abilities are rather unusual, you know."
"Well, I can't say he's wrong." Wain grinned.
