Nameless King

Chapter 36 New People



Wain slowly approached Bonecrusher. When the monster saw Wain\'s merciless eyes, he trembled with fear. No one wanted to die, and even creatures like monsters were no exception. Death, however, did not care for the wishes of others.

Wain thrust his sword sharply into Bonecrusher\'s head and delivered more than ten slashing blows to one point. He realized that this monster was very tenacious, so he would have to make many attacks before Bonecrusher finally died.

After a few seconds, Wain finally stopped attacking when the Destruction Sword was already covered in blood. Bonecrusher died, and a blue soul flew out of his body. Wain smiled, and the soul entered his body.

[Soul of Bonecrusher (Whole)

\'Wow, Whole Soul, didn\'t see that coming. I hope I get some skills. This guy was very strong and robust. Maybe I can get some skin strengthening or even regeneration.\' Thought Wain.

He wanted to crush the soul, but suddenly something caught his attention. When Bonecrusher fell and destroyed several buildings, it created a lot of noise. The monsters didn\'t pay attention to it since they were all on campus now. But, the noise also attracted the attention of people hiding nearby.

Several people came out of one building that looked like a small candy store. They had seen Wain kill Bonecrusher and, of course, were very impressed. There were only ten of them. Among them were seven men and three women.

Wain canceled Code Light and Darkness and approached these people. Their conversation was inevitable anyway. Moreover, Wain hoped there would be someone useful among them.

"Please help us." Said one man who stepped forward. They were all afraid and unable to defend themselves.

Wain asked, "How long have you been hiding here?"

"Since the beginning of the apocalypse, these monsters have been too dangerous. We\'re lucky we managed to survive." Quietly the man muttered.

\'Fear is okay, but they\'re useless. There\'s no point in helping them. They would only be a waste of resources and time.\' Thought Wain.

"I take it you haven\'t killed any monsters yet or activated your Soul Altars?" Asked Wain.

If one of them had the guts to kill a monster, it meant that in the long run, that person could be useful.

But, as he expected, everyone shook their heads.

"You are very strong, and it looks like you came from that university. Would you please take us with you? We can\'t fight, but we will do our best." The man asked.

Wain wanted to say something, but suddenly, another man\'s voice interrupted him.

"Wait, one of us killed a monster. That\'s her." He pointed to a girl of short stature with a pretty face.

She had short, shoulder-length pink hair and blue eyes. She had a small knife in her hand, but Wain found the weapon interesting.

He approached the girl and asked, "What\'s your name?"

The girl calmly replied, "Lea Cazal."

Lea looked a little over sixteen. She was still in high school, and the sudden onset of the apocalypse had turned her life upside down.

Wain pointed to the blue knife in Lea\'s hands and asked, "Nice to meet you. My name is Wain Norheim. Where did you get that weapon? Did you really kill a monster?"

The girl nodded and said, "I killed a zombie by accident. I just threw everything I could get my hands on at him. This knife... I made it myself."

At that moment, Wain\'s eyes lit up, and he asked smilingly, "That\'s the effect and skill of your soul, am I right?"

Lea nodded weakly.

Wain looked at the others and said, "We already have a lot of people with strong fighting souls. I\'m not the only one who can kill monsters. So, it would be nice if some of you turned out to have support souls or souls related to some craft."

"I\'m sorry, but I don\'t have the right soul for you." Said one of them.

The other people shook their heads the same way.

"I see, craft souls really aren\'t very common." Calmly said Wain.

Wain walked over to Lea, took her hand, and slowly walked forward. The girl tried to show that she was brave, but she was scared too. So when the man who had just killed a huge monster took her by the hand, she felt safe.

\'I was lucky. Most likely, Lea\'s soul is connected to blacksmithing. It\'s one of the most coveted craftsmen, especially at the beginning of the apocalypse.\' Thought Wain.

"Thank you." Said one man and followed Wain. The others did the same. They were glad that Wain had decided to help them.

Wain didn\'t answer anything. He decided that these people would be Gisle\'s problem. He wouldn\'t help them, but he had no reason to stop them from surviving either. Wain walked forward with Elsa, and something alerted him.

\'Hmm? Was he that big when I fought him?\' Wain pondered, looking at Bonecrusher\'s corpse.

The monster\'s corpse grew steadily larger and was several times its former size within seconds. The flesh began to tear apart, and Wain realized what was about to happen. He grabbed Lea and quickly ran out of there.

Then the monster\'s flesh reached its terminus, and it exploded, destroying everything around it. The only people who managed to survive were Wain and Lea. The girl was shocked, and she thanked fate that Wain was with her and saved her.

"Phew, that was dangerous. Are you okay?" Wain asked.

"Yeah." The girl nodded weakly and got to her feet.

They were already outside the walls of the university, and a second ago, her life might have ended because of the monster\'s suicide attack. She was in shock, but she tried to control herself.

Lea turned around and saw hundreds of dead zombies and small insects.

\'Take it easy, Lea, take it easy. They\'re all dead already. What\'s more, Wain is next to me. He can easily protect me.\' Said the girl to herself.

Wain took a cigarette out of the pack and smoked. He looked at the murdered monsters and muttered, \'Gisle did a good job. This place is safe now."

"Wain, are you in charge here?" Lea asked.

Wain shook his head and said, "No, Gisle is in charge here. I\'ll only show up here once in a while if I need it."

"Is he stronger than you?" Asked the girl.

"Is he stronger than me? I haven\'t met anyone stronger than me yet. That\'s enough questioning. Let\'s go." Proclaimed Wain and headed on his way.

He needed to talk to Gisle. Wain was going to head north, to the place where he could sense the energy of the World of Darkness. He had to get the soul he needed to unlock the second form of the Nameless King\'s Forms skill.

Gisle was going to organize the rest of the people. But, Wain wanted Gisle to pay special attention to Lea. After all, she was the person who could create weapons and equipment.
