Nameless King

"Hmm? Just one...? Damn... I was hoping for at least ten! Damn! Then it\'s no fun at all." Osvald said with a frustrated expression while shaking his head.

"You shouldn\'t be so frivolous. Even if this Arkan went against the system it doesn\'t mean he has the same goals as us. Until we prove otherwise, this one is as much of an enemy as anyone else." Marlis said with a serious look as she crossed her arms over her chest.

"Yeah... I agree with Marlis, however, now we just need to find out who it was. Once we figure that out we can make the right decision. The most important thing is that IT didn\'t get to the Arkans. We beat them, but we weren\'t the fastest." Sven muttered in a slow voice as he swung his arm.

Space split in two as a portal opened in front of him, leading hundreds of kilometers away.

"Come, there is nothing more for us to do here. Though the treasury turned out to be empty, our main objective is accomplished. Arkans didn\'t get IT and that\'s the most important thing. Now we just have to wait, I\'m sure we\'ll soon find out who was here." Sven muttered before entering the portal.

Marlis and Osvald looked at each other and followed Sven. The three of them had always followed the same path, though, after the great war, the world had frozen for a while, but now everything was in motion again.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

About thirty minutes after they left, the space next to the castle trembled. A massive seal appeared in the air, and a portal opened from which several people emerged. All of them had star tattoos on their chests with the number six inside.

Ahead of them walked a tall man, with short red hair and a stiff look. In the center of his star was the number - \'7\'. His star trembled from time to time as if it was ready to turn into something more powerful.

The group immediately headed towards the tomb and as soon as they saw the ruined gate they knew they had been beaten.

"Fuck! What the fuckers did that?!" The man exclaimed with a furious expression as he brought his fist down on the wall.

Crack. Crack. Crack.

Massive cracks went through the wall as the entire castle shuddered while the air beside the man rippled with the sheer amount of energy.

"Master... What shall we do...?" The woman standing beside him asked as she pointed to the skeleton lying on the floor.

"Agh..." The man sighed, calmed down, and with a serious look said, "Nothing. We\'ve been outrun and there\'s no way we can change that. This skeleton is already useless, it was just an energy bank, but someone has already taken the treasure. Let\'s go, there\'s nothing more for us to do here."

The man headed upstairs, shaking his head.

The other members of the group froze for a while as they stared at the skeleton. They knew who it was and felt awe at the creature that had once been one of the rulers of the entire world of Arkans, but now it was just a very rugged skeleton, nothing more.

"Well... No matter how great he is, there is always someone stronger in this world. Also, death spares no one, there is no hiding from death, no one." The woman muttered with an ice-cold look as it was hard for her as an Arkan to realize that even such powerful beings could die and it was forever.

"Miss... What about the Vampire Progenitor? As far as I know, he\'s actually immortal. I mean... it\'s impossible to kill him, there\'s no way to do it..." The guy with light hair asked while in confusion.

"Yeah... It\'s true. Only Alucard could do that since even the Immortal Dragon, fell into madness which caused his mind to destroy himself. However, this is an exception to the rule since even the strongest person in history, the Nameless King, also died." The woman muttered in a quiet voice before turning around and walking away.

To most Arkans, even to the older generation, Nameless King was akin to legend or even myth. They knew how powerful he was and that he was the greatest enemy of all Arkans, but only a few had seen him and even fewer had fought, so they got most of their information from stories.

...

Crackling.

The wooden door opened as two girls with powerful auras entered the spacious room. The first had long black hair and deadly eyes while streams of darkness flowed from her hands. The second had crimson hair and blue eyes that had become much wiser through the hundreds of missions she had completed and events she had seen.

At the table, sat a man with short gray hair and a devious look that seemed capable of controlling an entire country, just with his will.

"Well, well, who\'d have thought you\'d get stronger so quickly? I\'m even a little jealous." Gisle said with a smirk on her face as he stared at Zero and Maria.

Their aura was different from his, it was a level higher, since two weeks ago, almost simultaneously, Zero and Maria had reached the Fifth Chronicle and become Absolute.

Crackle.

The door opened again as another girl stepped inside. She had long purple hair and an aura comparable to God Stage.

"Damn... I\'d never believe I\'d listen to some Fourth Chronicle kid." Aurora slightly complained while shaking her head.

"Hah, it\'s not my fault." Gisle shrugged, "Only you can go to Lands of the Gods now, only you are strong enough."

Aurora stared at Gisle and asked, "Are you sure Wain is there?

Gisle grinned and with a sly smile said, "Sure. It\'s the only place he can be."
