Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

Dozens of seals that were powerful enough to contain the Dragon shook violently while purple lightning burst from them and left small craters on the stone walls.

Destruction on such a scale was dangerous even for Aurora, so she had to create a protective barrier in front of her.

Wain didn\'t retreat. He paced slowly toward the shard that like a wild beast, was trying to get out of its cage. For some reason, none of the lightning bolts hit Wain, it was as if they were trying to avoid him.

"Wain! Get out of there! I don\'t know what\'s going on! This has never happened before! You could die!" Aurora exclaimed with a worried look.

"Calm down. Everything will be all right." Wain said with a calm look, however, he was not addressing Aurora.

Wain sighed, reached forward, and said, "Come to me. I will be your new home."

Tremble.

A torrent of dark flame burst from the shard that shattered all the seals just as Aurora\'s barrier, so the shockwave tossed her aside. The flame didn\'t avoid Wain, but it didn\'t harm him in any way, on the contrary, his body was filled with energy while the shard slowly flew toward him.

Wain touched the shard with his fingertip as a small cut appeared on his finger with a drop of blood that covered the shard.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

p The shard trembled as a gray thread appeared between it and Wain that bound them together. Energy came out of Wain, so the shard gradually began to grow.

In time, the shard reached the size of a fist, then a head, and eventually turned into a long sword that emitted streams of dark energy.

[The shard answered your call.]

[You have received a piece of that power that only the Nameless King can wield. Now it is your new weapon that will grow stronger with you.]

There were no runes, carvings, or ornaments on the sword. It was a perfect dark blade sharp enough to cut through any armor, even the strongest. The sword guard was square that looked exquisite and deadly. The handle was covered in dark bandages that partially dangled from it.

Wain gripped the sword tightly as a message appeared before him.

[Gladius, Nameless King\'s Sword (Part)

The sword that belonged to the strongest being in the universe. Even the Dragon Progenitor had to respect the owner of this incredible weapon. It is unknown how, but the sword has recognized you as its master, so you can use its full potential.

*Created Passive Skill - "Divine Incision."

*Created Passive Skill - "Growth."

*Created an active skill - "Wrath of the King."

-Divine Incision.

Gladius can cut anything, even the heavens themselves or a god, depending on your strength and the amount of energy you use.

-Growth

Gladius will grow stronger with you. Also, Gladius can gradually regain its full strength if you find other shards. You will feel it if a shard is near you.

-Wrath of the King

Make use of Gladius\'s hidden power that temporarily turns you into a nearly invincible creature. Any obstacle will no longer matter to you, you will be able to destroy everything in your path].

"Great. This is definitely something I\'ve been missing." Wain muttered as he nodded.

\'I\'m glad to meet you...\' A strange, muffled voice sounded in his head as if spoken by a warrior that had been through hundreds of battles.

\'Who are you?\' Wain grew wary.

\'Huh, don\'t you recognize me? I\'m in your hand right now. Though this is only a small part of me, I hope I can serve you well.\' Gladius muttered.

\'Well, now I have one more ally, right?\' Wain inwardly asked.

\'Of course. I will always be with you. No matter how hard the fight is, I\'ll do everything I can to make sure we win. You can count on me.\' Gladius uttered in a serious voice.

"Good. I trust you." Wain muttered as Gladius turned into a dark mist that became a jaw-shaped rune in Wain\'s palm.

"What happened? Are you all right?" Aurora asked as she stood up.

"Yeah... I don\'t know why, but I felt like I had to touch that shard." Wain nodded in a calm manner, "I didn\'t come here for nothing after all. This is the best sword I\'ve ever seen. It is the very perfection."

"Damn... That was unexpected... I didn\'t think it would happen this way, though it\'s probably for the best." Aurora muttered.

"Enough idle talk. I want to know how the Nameless King died, why there is only one shard left of the sword, and what this Great War is that you mentioned earlier." Wain uttered in a thunderous voice.

Aurora shuddered, gulped, and nodded, "Good. It\'s time for you to find out how great a man you\'ve become heir to."

Aurora waved her hand as a phantom image of Nameless King appeared before her.

\'Even here, the silhouette is blurred...\' Wain murmured, \'It seems Nameless King has carefully concealed not only his name but his identity as well.

"Five hundred years ago, something happened that all races want to forget. It was the Great War." Aurora uttered as many other silhouettes appeared next to the Nameless King\'s phantom.

"Humanity suffered the most during the Great War as the Arkans decided to get rid of us before attacking the other races." Aurora uttered as she snapped her finger.

Opposite the Nameless King appeared several people that looked exactly like the humans except for the star tattoo on their breasts. That was the difference between the Arkans and the humans.

"Arkans... Who are they? They don\'t seem to be one of the Pillars, then why are they so strong?" Wain asked.

"Yes, you\'re right. The Arkans are not considered members of the Pillars, however, it is not because they are not strong enough. The reason they\'re not in the Pillars is that they consider everyone else inferior. According to the Arkans, they are the only perfect race while the others are just mistakes, especially the humans."
