Nameless King

Chapter 921 Barrier



Nicole greedily absorbed energy from the souls to heal her wounds. Though she was not a human, she was a rather special monster, so much of the energy she didn't even purify and literally ate souls almost instantly, dealing with the side effects.

Uncleaned energy should have caused her even more damage than she would have gotten from absorbing souls, but Nicole knew how to absorb energy better than anyone else, so she even withstood the pressure from a lot of Wain's blood.

"Well, well, it's time to get it and bring it to Ceozi, right?" Wain muttered with a slight smile looking at the dragon skull.

'Do you need my help? Blind Sorcerer asked as he crossed his arms over his chest.

'Sure, I definitely can't do it without you. The dragons will sense that I broke off a fang from the skull of their long-dead mate, so they will rush here to punish me." Wain said calmly with a slight nod.

'Yeah... That's the only thing that will make them come to the grave of one of their own. I wonder how this Dragon died? Apparently, it happened after the Great War, since its aura doesn't look familiar to me.' Blind Sorcerer muttered with a thoughtful expression.

"It doesn't matter. The important thing is to make sure the Dragons don't notice it until a few hours later so Ceozi can finish the job." Wain waved his hand.

'I can do it, it's actually pretty easy, I just need some energy and to take control for a while, but are you sure that's necessary?' Blind Sorcerer asked.

'Hmm? What are you talking about?' Wain raised an eyebrow in confusion.

'We don't have to fight the Dragons. I can make them understand what we've done in ten hours, just enough time for Ceozi to finish the job.' Blind Sorcerer said calmly as he flapped his sleeve.

Wain shook his head, 'Nah, that's out of the question. If we do as you say, the Dragons will still come here and if we're not here, they'll ask questions of Ceozi. Even if they're usually calm and judicious, that won't happen this time. They might even kill her, you know...'

'Well... Your point makes sense, I just completely forgot that this blacksmith girl lives here. Honestly, she picked a hell of a strange place to live... Though considering she's a blacksmith it's probably not a bad option.' Blind Sorcerer said rubbing the back of his head.

Wain nodded, 'Yeah, there are quite a few rare materials here, so she can concentrate on blacksmithing. There's thick fog, scary monsters, and a cold wind all around, but she doesn't see it. She spends most of her time in front of the red fire.'

Wain sighed, looked at the dragon skull, and said with a deep look, "Well, enough talk, time to get his fang."

Whoooooooooooooooosh.

Wain jumped high up, instantly covering several dozen meters. He had to make several movements to reach the dragon's skull, and all the while his own words echoed in his mind.

'No one but Ceozi or monsters would want to live in this place, but even they came here for the energy that emanates from the dragon skeleton... Even though no one but she would want to be here that long, this place still became her home, right? It's cold and dark around her forge, but it's hot and warm inside...' Wain muttered inwardly as his gaze darkened for a moment before his feet touched the dragon's skull.

Wain looked around, beneath him were many mountains and expansive lands that were almost completely obscured by fog.

"Well, let's get started. You can take control from me." Wain said calmly looking up.

'Sure. I'll make it quick.' The Blind Sorcerer smirked as his energy intensified.

At the same moment, a powerful dark current erupted from Wain's body, which gradually turned gray with small flecks of yellow energy. An blindfold appeared on Wain as well as a wide gray mantle.

'Hmm? I thought you were going to use the power of chaos.' Wain said with a surprised look.

'Hah, that won't be necessary. Moreover, a power like Chaos is easier to spot than others, if you know how, so I'll do it the normal way. Blind Sorcerer shrugged before raising his hand.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Space trembled as white streams of energy emerged from his fingers, they were thin and seemed weak, but the shivering air beside them showed that this was quite different.

'So you want them to be unable to spot us for a few hours, right? Well, I'll easily comply with your request.' The Blind Sorcerer smiled slyly before clenching his hand into a fist.

Whooooooooooooosh.

The five streams of energy abruptly began spinning around each other, leaving trails of their tips in the air. The Blind Sorcerer manipulated them like bones that gradually created a huge magical circle with a hundred ancient runes.

'Agh... After I got your memories back and reached the Fifth Chronicle, I have the ability to use much more energy than before. That's very nice, it's a pity that I, like the others, had to wait so long for this moment.' Blind Sorcerer inwardly muttered as he finished creating the magic circle.

'Hah, the more energy I have the stronger you are, though that rule only works while bits of your souls are in my mind.' Wain grinned then his gaze became serious, 'You had to wait hundreds of years for me to get my memories back and you're still waiting for me to wake you from your sleep.'

Blind Sorcerer nodded slightly, "Don't be too bothered by it. We were worried that something would go wrong and you wouldn't get your memories back, but it's completely different now. Compared to how long we've been waiting, there are only a few moments left. By the way, I'm done now.'

Click.

The Blind Sorcerer snapped his fingers, interrupting their conversation and activating a magical circle that glowed bright white like a star.
