Nameless King

The energy emanating from Wain\'s sword made Amelia and Dan shudder as a shiver ran through their bodies, but it couldn\'t stop them, not now.

\'No matter what he\'s going to do, we have to kill him! Right here, right now!\' Dan inwardly exclaimed as he brought his axe above his head to attack.

Whooooooooosh.

Wain stepped forward as a gray wave of energy erupted from his sword. At the same time, Dan\'s face was stained with the blood that burst from his severed arm flying away.

"Dan!" Amelia exclaimed with a worried look.

"Die!" Wain uttered in a thunderous voice before turning into a dark flash.

He appeared in front of Dan and, with a deadly look, swung his sword from top to bottom. The wave of energy sliced Dan exactly in two as it split the ground behind him. It was instant and unstoppable death.

"NO!" Amelia shouted in a desperate manner as she stretched her arm forward as though trying to save Dan.

"Now it\'s your turn!" Wain uttered in an ice-cold voice before attacking.

Amelia was shocked, her mind was completely lost, but the instincts that she had gained from hundreds of fights took control of the situation, so she reflexively created a wind barrier in front of her.

The barrier couldn\'t block the attack, but it was able to deflect the blade, so it flew sideways into the mountain behind.

"I\'m not giving up that easily! Bastard!" Amelia exclaimed with a furious look as she directed all her energy to her hands.

Amelia let loose a powerful tornado that threw him back hundreds of meters.

Crackle.

Wain plunged his sword into the ground as he halted with a spit-out clot of blood.

\'Be careful... Due to the regeneration of your cloak and the action of the fourth form, the consequences won\'t be terrible, but only if you don\'t overdo it. You can\'t use that kind of power for long.\' Gladius spoke in a serious voice.

\'I know, but from the looks of it, I won\'t need much time. She\'s broken, I\'ll deal with her quickly. Wain inwardly muttered as he stared at Amelia before running toward her.

Amelia, with trembling steps, headed toward Dan\'s body, above which he hovered a huge red Soul that was several times larger than he was.

"No... How did this happen...? It can\'t be true!" Amelia muttered, dropped to her knees, and touched Dan\'s arm.

Drip. Drip. Drip.

Tears flowed from her eyes while her appearance gradually returned to normal as her aura weakened.

\'Great. She no longer has the will to fight.\' Wain muttered to himself while spreading his eerie aura.

Amelia turned her head in his direction, then at Dan\'s body and at his Soul.

"I can\'t die here... If I give up now, what did Dan die for? I can\'t do this to him... To keep this from happening, I\'m willing to do anything... Even on this, right?" Amelia muttered as though she was coaxing herself as she brought Dan\'s hand to her mouth.

She opened her mouth and bit off part of his hand while her whole body shook with the horror of what was happening.

\'What...? No way...? What the fuck is this!?\' Wain inwardly exclaimed.

For a while, he stopped as he was literally petrified of what he saw since his eyes widened.

"She\'s eating him... Why...?" Wain muttered while in disbelief.

\'Wain! Now is not the time for this! Go ahead! Kill her! This is your chance!" Gladius exclaimed, but Wain as though he didn\'t hear him.

​ His power was to devour everything in his path, even space, but he dared not even think of literally eating another human, much less his friend or mate. Moreover, from Amelia\'s look, Wain realized that she herself was terrified of what she was doing, but her teeth continued to grind bloody flesh.

\'This is cannibalism! Why is she doing this? Does it make any sense...? Even monsters can\'t suddenly become stronger by eating someone...\' Wain internally uttered.

Amelia didn\'t stop for a second, so she\'d eaten practically everything in a minute, leaving only her heart and massive Soul.

"Wain! Stop standing still! Act, now!" Gladius shouted as he was finally able to reach Wain.

"Yeah. You\'re right." Wain nodded before running forward.

At the same time, Amelia took Dan\'s heart in her hands and mouthed, "I\'m sorry... I didn\'t want to do this, but it\'s the only way to get revenge for you."

Whooooooooosh.

Suddenly the red soul turned into a torrent that penetrated her heart, then Amelia took her first bite. Droplets of blood ran down her lips while something strange began to happen to the star on her chest.

The star trembled violently as the number "2" became a blur, as the ink gradually turned into something else.

Amelia took one last bite as she completely swallowed the heart of her mate with whom she had gone through hundreds of battles. At the same time, the number "3" appeared in the center of the star.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Beside Amelia appeared Wain as he rained down on her a sword that exuded an enormous amount of gray energy.

"Dan... I will surely win and save our race from this monster..." Amelia muttered as a snowflake pattern appeared in her right eye.

She turned her head to Wain as an impenetrable wall of ice appeared between them.

Because of his unique properties and the huge amount of energy, Gladius was able to cut through the barrier, but Amelia just created several more, so on the third barrier, Wain stopped as the blade was right above her head.

"Nameless, I promise you... Your death will be so terrible that even I will be terrified." Amelia uttered with an ice-cold look before she waved her hand.

In a heartbeat, she created a torrent of wind that shattered all the barriers into tiny shards. The impact threw Wain more than a kilometer back as he was buried under a pile of rocks in one of the mountains through which the Dragon\'s spine passed.
