Nameless King

The stair was long as it stopped in front of the moon which seemed impossibly far away.

"Huh, that looks pretty damn magical." Wain grinned as he removed his hand from the glowing disk and looked up at the stairs, "I thought in the last zone I'd have to fight to the death, it was supposed to be a dangerous place, but... it's so much better."

Step.

Wain stepped onto the stairs and slowly headed toward the top. Marlis looked at the altar, then at Wain, and with a slight nod followed him. In her rather long life, she had been to hundreds of different areas, but she had never seen anything like this.

"What do you think is going to happen now?" Marlis asked with a curious and worried look while looking around.

"I don't know, we're going straight to the moon in such a weird zone... I don't know how long it'll take us to just get to it... Although, it doesn't really look like the moon." Wain said with a slight smile on his face as he sped up.

"Hmm? What are you talking about?" Marlis asked with a confused look as she touched her lips in a thoughtful manner.

However, Wain did not answer, he just kept walking.

The closer they came to the moon, the more the spirits paid attention to them. The spirits were looking at them as if they were two rising stars.

The stairs were actually very long as it took Wain with Marlis over three hours to get close to the top that led to the platform right in front of the massive moon.

"Great. We're here." Wain said with a calm look while his deep eyes examined the moon that was ten feet in front of him, "Marlis, there has to be some main source of light in any area, right? Like the sun or the moon, as a general standard."

"Yeah. You're right, but why do you ask that?" Marlis uttered in confusion as she raised an eyebrow.

"Hah, you still don't get it?" Wain grinned in a confident manner as he stepped forward, stepping onto the platform.

Wain stared at the moon and said, "On the way to Death Shore we must pass through several zones, each one more dangerous than the last, the same applies in Soul Pearls. But... in that case, where are the Soul Pearls in this zone?"

Marlis' eyes went wide as goosebumps ran down her body which made her shudder. She opened her mouth wide while in disbelief and muttered, "It can't be..."

"It's exactly like that. That insanely huge orb isn't really a moon, it's Soul Pearl!" Wain exclaimed as he spread his arms.

"Fuck... I once saw a Soul Pearl that was the size of a house, but this... is something else entirely..." Marlis uttered with a dazed look, "Maybe the other Soul Pearls are useless to us, but the amount and purity of energy in this Soul Pearl must be beyond belief... What will we do with it? If we absorb that much energy, even despite the limits we can become much stronger."

Wain was silent for a while, he just stared at the Soul Pearl from which massive waves of white energy emanated.

'Hey... Marlis is right. If you take half of that Soul Pearl, you'll increase your Majesty several times over, and that will definitely trigger the development of your a Beyond.' Gladius said in a serious voice.

Usually in such situations, the Forms would say something, but now they were silent as though they wanted Wain's choice to be influenced by nothing but his own will.

Whoooooosh.

Marlis' aura intensified as she headed toward Soul Pearl, "Let's start absorbing it. I'll take my left half, okay?"

"No. I don't agree with that." Wain said in a calm voice while walking slowly toward Soul Pearl.

"Hmm? You may have absorbed a billion souls, but do you really think you can handle more than half? Well, I'm willing to split it 40/60, is that okay for you?" Marlis said with a sigh as she shook her hand.

"No, I'm not talking about that. Look, I brought us into this area, so only I get to decide what to do with this Soul Pearl." Wain uttered as he stepped close to the sphere.

"What...? Hey, I've been pretty patient, but I'm not going to let you take all of Soul Pearl that size! It's just not fair!" Marlis exclaimed with an angry look as her aura intensified.

"Well, I don't care what you think. However, I don't want you to think I'm tricking you or doing this out of greed. Since I've already made up my mind what I'm going to do with this Soul Pearl." Wain said in a calm manner, then a devious smirk appeared on his face.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

A tremendous amount of energy headed for his hand as he stepped forward. The darkness covered his fist that with all his might collapsed on Soul Pearl as a mad look formed on Wain's face.

"No! Stop! You sick bastard!" Marlis exclaimed as she directed a wave of flame toward Wain, but then nothing could stop him.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

The fist reached Soul Pearl as the impact caused a powerful shockwave that scattered hundreds of dark clouds around it. Then, on the Soul Pearl appeared a multitude of cracks that headed upward.

Bam.

Soul Pearl split in two as massive streams of energy burst out of it that was to the limit pure, it was the dream of any creature, even a Dragon, but one human chose just to destroy it because he wanted to.

"No... That can't be true... How could you be so wasteful!?" Marlis muttered while in disbelief. She wished that time would turn back so she could stop Wain.

"Ahahahaha, who cares what happened to Soul Pearl? The most important thing is that I get to Death Shore, and Soul Pearl is definitely the last obstacle before it!" Wain exclaimed while his laughter shook the air.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Suddenly, from the depths of the cracked Soul Pearl, dark hands appeared that pounced on Wain with eerie auras, causing his heart to shrink with fear.
