Nameless King

Chapter 776 The Tree



"Hey... Don\'t forget that Wain doesn\'t belong to you. You\'ve settled into this world quite well, but you\'re not the only Human. After all, Wain\'s place is in Human World, on the throne!" Aurora said in a deadly serious manner with a frowned look.

"Hah, Wain belongs to no one. He\'s made that clear to you many times before." Gisle grinned as he leaned his hand on the chair.

"He\'s still too young to understand how important his destiny is. He has no choice but to continue on the path of the Nameless King." Aurora uttered as she clenched her teeth.

"Well... What will you do if he follows his own path? The same way he always has before." Gisle asked with a calm expression as his eye lowered.

"In that case, I will force him to change his mind. Everyone makes mistakes and he\'s no exception, there\'s nothing wrong with that." Aurora said with clenched fists.

"Agh... I wonder what Wain would think if he heard you now..." Gisle muttered while shaking his head, "Okay, enough talk. It\'s time to move out. Maria and Zero, explore the Lands of the Gods and find Wain if possible. Aurora... Well, you know what to do."

"Hah, sure I am! I had to leave Human World for a while, but it was worth it. I will only come back from there with Wain and help him reach the Fifth Chronicle where he needs to be!" Aurora exclaimed with an excited look before stepping forward.

Her silhouette blurred as she turned into a purple flash, crossing hundreds of meters in seconds.

"Girls, keep up." Gisle said with a slight smile on her face as Zero and Maria disappeared.

...

Step. Step. Step.

The man in the long black coat walked slowly forward as he stopped in front of the swamp and looked up.

"Well, well, I finally got here. Damn... I never would have thought it was possible to run so long that my legs would hurt so much..." Wain muttered with a smirk on his face while staring at the massive tree.

The massive roots of the tree filled half of the view while a dark liquid dripped from it and fell into the area of the marshes that surrounded the tree. However, through this darkness passed some of the bright light from the golden foliage.

"It\'s time to get your last shard, isn\'t it?" Wain grinned before stepping forward.

A dense road of darkness appeared before him as he crossed the marshes and headed toward a huge crack in a tree trunk that looked like the entrance to this mysterious place.

Tremble.

Suddenly the water trembled as a massive monster with a long tail and fish-like scales all over its body burst out of it. The monster opened its mouth wide, about to swallow Wain whole.

"Hah, you\'re not as strong as that monkey at all. That was a mistake." Wain grinned and raised his hand.

He snapped his fingers, which created a small blast of darkness that tossed the monster aside, damaging some of its scales.

At that moment, many eyes appeared in the murky water that stared at Wain as a victim, but none dared to attack him. The monsters felt that they had no chance against Wain, so they just let him pass to the end of the pond.

"Were so aggressive, but afraid to even try again? How boring." Wain said with a calm look as streams of energy headed toward his hand.

A dark orb appeared in his palm that was just a huge amount of compressed energy. Given that Wain was in the Fourth Chronicle this was not a skill, but before he could not so easily create something like this.

\'His energy control is getting better. That\'s good.\' The Abyss Artist muttered with a devious smile on his face.

Whooooooooosh.

Wain in a careless manner threw the orb into the water and continued forward without even turning around.

The monsters shuddered in fear as they tried to run away as fast as they could, but the orb had already touched the water.

All the energy from the sphere burst out in one moment, causing a powerful explosion that launched a tremendous surge of water like a geyser. The monsters flew upward and landed as those in the epicenter were instantly killed.

"Aren\'t you going to collect souls?" Gladius asked in a curious voice.

"Nah, I certainly don\'t need it now. Let those who survived to take them, if there are any. Right now I\'m only interested in your shard and the possibility of reaching the Fifth Chronicle." Wain said with a wave of his hand as he climbed the root leading to the entrance to the tree.

Wain approached the crack, took one last look at the golden foliage, and stepped forward.

Whoooooooooosh.

It was dark inside, but as soon as he stepped inside, many yellow flowers bloomed all over the trunk, shining like though small suns, illuminating everything in the huge tree.

"Damn... That\'s pretty high, isn\'t it?" Wain said as a slight smile appeared on his face as he looked up.

There were several platforms he had to walk through to get to the very top, where the last shard was waiting for him.

\'Hmm... I thought it was just a big tree, but it looks like someone lived here a long time ago, maybe it was even one of the Plants, such flowers I\'ve only seen in their town...\' Wain inwardly muttered as goosebumps ran down his body.

Whoooooosh.

Several long, deadly thorns flew toward him at tremendous speed. Wain\'s pupils narrowed as he took a step back and the thorns plunged into the ground in front of him.

"Well, well, looks like it\'s not going to be as easy as I thought." Wain smirked while watching two plants grow out of the ground, which gradually turned into some creatures.
