Nameless King

"Chaos and Ether... It actually takes two unique powers to unlock a gate... It's amazing..." Blind Sorcerer muttered while looking at the blue fire in his left hand and the yellow fire in his right.

Marlis was shocked as she did not help but believe what she saw. Chaos and Ether were incredibly rare powers, but this situation was out of the ordinary.

'I know a few people who possess the power of Chaos, and I was acquainted with someone who got the power of Ether... but is it possible for someone to possess these two powers at the same time? Damn... I had no idea that Wain was hiding something like that...' Marlis muttered inwardly with a dazed look.

"Alright, it's time to start... Controlling these two powers is problematic even for me..." Blind Sorcerer said in an arrogant way before swinging his arms.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Space trembled as a massive magical circle appeared in front of the stairs of light. It was different from any other that Wain or even Marlis had ever encountered, for every second the runes in the magic circle changed completely.

"Wait... This magic circle can't be broken!" Marlis exclaimed while in disbelief, "Absolutely all the runes change, which means that a new magic circle appears in front of you every second."

Wain stared at the magic circle for a while, then he turned to Marlis and with an ice-cold look said, "Shut up. If you want to see what's behind that magic circle, just step aside and don't bother me with your annoying yelling."

'What...? Wain? No... It definitely wasn't him talking, did someone interfere with his mind, or did Wain always have helpers...? Marlis uttered to herself while stepping back.

"Well, it's time to start." Blind Sorcerer muttered as he stepped forward.

Yellow flames headed toward the magic circle and completely engulfed it.

'Hmm? Is he trying to use Chaos energy to stop the runes...? It could work, couldn't it?' Marlis said inwardly with a curious look.

Whooooooooooosh.

​ Suddenly the runes began to change even faster, now it happened several times per second, and that seemed to be a complete failure, however, Blind Sorcerer was completely calm as if everything was going according to his plan.

"Fine... Now let's make it even faster..." Blind Sorcerer muttered as he added a piece of Ether to the magic circle.

Whooooooosh.

Now the runes were changing more than ten times per second, which was an enormous speed. Each change provoked a large outward burst of energy, so the space became unstable.

'I see... Instead of trying to pick the right combination, he wants to overload the system... but is that possible? He's already used Ether and Chaos, however, that's obviously not enough...' Marlis muttered inwardly with a confused look.

"Good, just what I needed." The Blind Sorcerer uttered as he snapped his fingers.

Tremble.

Several magical circles appeared next to him, all linked together and transmitting their energy to the central one that was right in front of the chaotic one.

The Blind Sorcerer stepped forward and his hands became a blur as his eyes became as sharp as a pair of blades.

He shifted the order of the runes with great speed, injecting energy and creating powerful new chains that filled the main magical circle with power. It was the work of the greatest magician that ever existed, just a mesmerizing sight, especially for a person like Marlis.

'It's incredible... It would take me a few days just to consider all the magic circles... another as long to make a plan and only then would I start acting, but even then I couldn't guarantee success...' Marlis muttered inwardly as her mouth opened wide.

"Nice... Almost done, just one last thing left to do." The Blind Sorcerer grinned as he stretched out his hand.

His exhausted look showed that even for him it was very difficult to do, however, there was an excited smile on his face as if of a warrior that after years had finally returned to the battlefield.

From his finger flew a thin beam of white energy that set all the magical circles in motion. They swirled violently, accelerating each other, especially the central magic circle.

The inertia activated all the runes and formulas that were set off by the Blind Sorcerer which led to a massive release of energy outward, just impossible amounts.

"Ahahaha, this might be one of my greatest masterpieces!" Blind Sorcerer exclaimed with eyes wide open as a mad smile formed on his face.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

A powerful pressure came upon the chaotic magic circle as it shuddered violently. The runes were changing, creating new defenses, but it also overloaded the system, so after a while, several cracks appeared in the magic circle. They grew rapidly and at one point the magic circle shattered into small shards.

Each piece on its way sliced through the space, and dispersed the darkness around it, leaving only emptiness.

At the same time, the gateway that led to the last area of Purgatory on the way to its deepest and most dangerous part, Death Shore, opened.

"This sight is enough to be my reward for my work." Blind Sorcerer said with a slight smirk on his face as he glanced at the gate before disappearing, returning control to Wain.

His appearance returned to normal as his green eyes stared at the portal.

The portal was oddly round in shape as if it were trying to scare away any creature with its eerie aura. Thick darkness flowed from the edges of the portal while creepy ghosts like spirits from the realm of the dead flew around it.

"Hah, that's exactly how I imagined this place." Wain grinned before stepping forward, coming close to the entrance, then he glanced at Marlis and said, "Why are you standing there like a statue? Come on, we're almost there."

With these words, Wain entered the portal as his body disappeared into the darkness.

After a few seconds, Marlis nodded and followed him. She realized that even though things that had just happened were very strange, she had to keep moving forward, at least until Wain reached Death Shore.
