Nameless King



Whooooooooooooosh.

Sven, Osvald, and Marlis headed back to the area of the Azure Tail. They went through the portal that Marlis had prepared in advance, and when they emerged, it was immediately obvious.

The Black Whip Dragons had lost looks as their faces became as pale as a sheet of paper. The Dragons from Azure Tail, on the contrary, were happy, now their battle was almost over, and the enemy leader was defeated.

"Marlis, if I give you some of my energy, can you deal with all the Black Whip Dragons?" Sven asked with a sly smirk.

Marli's eyes went wide, and with a glowing look, she replied, "Sure! Your energy, it's the greatest treasure I can ever get!"

Watching all this Osvald shook his head with a tired look.

'Damn... The romance of these two sometimes goes too far... Can't we do things like normal people?' Osvald inwardly muttered as he took a deep breath.

Sven smiled slightly and put his hand on Marlis's chest. His eyes flashed, then white energy headed toward Marlis, crossing over to her on his arm.

Marlis's cheeks flushed as her eyes filled with pleasure. The direct transfer of energy was one of the closest contacts there was at all.

"Fine... I feel great... You actually have a hell of a lot of energy..." Marlis smirked, looked at the Dragons, and the corners of her lips went up.

Marlis stretched out her hand with her palm open, and streams of green energy appeared in front of her. At her will, all the energy turned into hundreds of fireballs that rained down on the Black Whip Dragons at breakneck speed.

"What the hell!?"

"Fuck! We gotta run!"

"Shit! Did our leader really lose!?"

The dragons exclaimed and rushed off in different directions. Most of them were already desperate, and some were furious, but none of that mattered anymore, since in front of Marlis's power, there was nothing they could do.

Whooooooooooooooooooosh.

The fireballs chased each Dragon and exploded on impact, unleashing devastating torrents of flame. Hotspots of fire quickly appeared all over the area as well as craters in the center of which lay the already dead Black Whip Dragons.

"Damn... So they could have done this all along, could they?" Someone from Azure Tail muttered with a dazed expression.

Laur frowned, "Well... Given that Sven defeated Birit it's no surprise, though that's not what matters. They're all on the Transcendence Stage... To them, we're the real wimps."

The other Dragons flinched at their leader's words. For them to realize that they were nothing more than easy targets for someone else was a real nightmare.

In a few minutes, each Black Whip Dragon was destroyed, and Marlis with a satisfied smile clung to Sven.

"How did I do? I didn't miss any of them! Even the ones who tried to escape!" Marlis looked at Sven, who was much taller than she was.

He patted her and with a smile on his face said, "Yeah, you did everything I asked you to do. Hah, Marlis, you're not your usual self today. Have you lost all your seriousness and severity?"

Marlis's embarrassed as her eyes went wide, she dipped her head into Sven's chest and murmured, "It's just that today is different. If you're a completely different, new you, what's stopping me from finally acting the way I want to?"

"Hey, guys, I think we should be doing something else." Osvald crossed his arms over his chest and looked at them irritably.

Sven turned around, "Yeah... You're right. I have something to talk to Azure Tail about."

Wain, watching Sven and Marlis was slightly confused as they reminded him of someone.

'Damn... These two are like a mirror image of me and Eva, though in very different circumstances... It's even a little scary...' Wain inwardly muttered.

Tap.

Sven, Marlis, and Osvald landed before Laur, who looked as if he were preparing for the worst.

"Hey, why do you look so tense? Aren't you glad your opponent was defeated?" Sven said with a sly smirk.

"Well... Something tells me I'm not going to have the most pleasant conversation, am I?" Laur's gaze grew serious.

"Hah, your instincts don't fail you, though you don't have to worry about your people, we won't attack you." Sven shrugged nonchalantly, but his words did not reassure Laur at all.

Sven remained silent, looking around until he said, "Basically, it's simple. I want you all, to give us your energy."

The dragons grew wary as his aura intensified. A few of Sven's words were enough to make them consider him their enemy.

Whoooooooooosh.

Laur spread his massive wings, raised his hand and shouted, "Silence!"

His voice echoed throughout the area, making all the Dragons freeze.

"Don't get us wrong, we're not going to kill you or anything. However, you will have to give Marlis your energy, keep 1% for yourself, that way in a few years you will fully recover." Sven said calmly as if talking about something routine.

"I see... You want us to give you our inner energy... What happens if I refuse?" Laur looked coldly at Sven.

Sven's eyes narrowed, and with a devious grin said, "Well, in that case, you will become our enemy. Believe me, you shouldn't check whether I'm serious or not, if you want to stay alive of course. Make a wise decision, like a true leader."

Laur gulped.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

At the same moment, Sven released most of his aura, giving the Dragons goosebumps and making them shudder with fear. Marlis and Osvald did the same, releasing green and red streams of energy.

The dragons looked at each other, unsure of what they were supposed to do. For the first time, they were faced with their instincts screaming, asking them to run away.

"So... What do you say? Will you give us your energy and just wait until you come to your senses, or will this place become a common grave for the two feuding Dragon Organizations?" Sven tilted his head with a menacing glint in his eyes.
