Nameless King

A multitude of paper knights attacked Wain time after time. He easily dodged their attacks and counterattacked sharply but gradually lost.

Wain was strong, but he could not defeat immortal enemies. Sooner or later, he would tire, and he would not even have the strength to hold his sword tightly in his hands.

Whooosh.

One of the paper knights reinforced after the rebirth attacked Wain. The monster's weapon was a long sword, more like a saw. The knight attempted to lacerate Wain by attacking him from behind, but Wain was ready for it.

He wrapped himself up sharply, snatched the knight's weapon, and sliced his enemy in two. However, a few seconds later, the sword turned into sheets of paper, and the knight was resurrected. This had already happened more than ten times, and Wain decided to go on the defensive.

Wain turned into blue lightning and moved to the end of the library.

'After the paper knights are reborn, they become stronger, but certain symbols also appear on their bodies. That must mean something. Even if they can heal the most critical wounds, all creatures have weaknesses and limits. I'm missing something.' Wain thought as he looked at the monsters running toward him.

He realized that the signs on their chests must have meant something. However, he couldn't find a clue to solve this mystery.

Wain looked up and stared intently at the bookcases. To his surprise, there were various symbols engraved on the top of the bookcase, and one of them was a triangle. This symbol appeared on the chests of the two paper knights that Wain had killed first.

Wain smirked and swung his hand. The dark sword flew toward the bookcase and smashed it into tiny chips. At the exact moment, the triangle-shaped mark on the chests of the two knights glowed brightly, and the monsters quickly burned away. Not even ash was left of them.

"Huh, that turned out to be easier than I thought." Proclaimed Wain and waved his hand. The dark sword returned to him, and he turned into blue lightning.

Wain realized how he had to fight these opponents. First, he had to kill each knight so that signs would appear on their chests, and then he would destroy all the bookcases. That way, he could easily kill all the paper knights quickly and safely.

In a few seconds, there were dozens of bodies cut in two in front of Wain, and the firsts of them began to rise. They were ten knights, each with a sign in the shape of a circle.

Wain smiled and looked at the bookcases. However, he did not find any with the same symbol.

Whoooosh.

Ten knights instantly attacked Wain. They aimed at different parts of his body, from his head to his feet. Moreover, three of the knights decided to go around Wain's back. They were trying to protect the library from uninvited guests.

Wain frowned and furiously began to attack the knights. He was unhappy that his plan had once again failed to work. When he killed each of the rebellious paper knights, they rose again.

This time they were even stronger than before, but the mark on their chests was different.

'I see, each time the combination changes. All I have to do is kill them a certain number of times, after which I can destroy the bookcase, and they will all be dead.' Wain thought and looked up.

Just as he suspected, a sign on one of the bookcases matched him. Wain waved his hand, and ten paper knights were burned to the ground three seconds later.

Once Wain understood how the system worked, he had no more trouble passing this test. After about five minutes, he had killed every paper knight and destroyed quite a few bookcases.

The only dangerous and challenging moment was when one of the paper knights revived ten times in a row. Only then did the correct symbol appear on the monster's chest, and Wain could kill it.

This monster was powerful and even inflicted a rather deep wound on Wain's left side.

Whooosh.

When the battle was over, the cloud rose high like the last time. Wain walked out of the library and looked up. He had almost reached the cloud layer. He only had one final step to take.

In front of Wain was another cloud with a massive building on it. Wain was in no hurry to go there. He wanted to rest and recover his strength first.

In the last two fights, he received several wounds. They were not critical, but they made him weaker. He had to recover before the final test.

After all, when he would be at the top, something exciting and incredible would await him.

"The Purgatory zones... are mysterious places, full of mysticism or even magic. The Pearl of Soul is probably at the very top, just like last time. Hmm, Forgotten defend the soul pearl. I wonder if I'm going to meet someone like that this time or not? Moreover, I still haven't met a watcher. That's weird. How am I supposed to get home in that case?"

Wain looked at the hundreds of clouds floating peacefully across the vast sky and felt inner peace. It was a beautiful picture that could not be seen anywhere else but here.

Whooosh.

Wain smiled, and the Ring of Damned glowed brightly. A green pill appeared in his hands. He popped it into mouth and swallowed.

Wain hadn't originally planned to use the healing pill to heal faster. He could have just waited, and nothing would have gone wrong. However, when Wain looked at the clouds and the blue sky, he felt the most wonderful feeling in the world - Freedom.

In fact, Wain didn't want to wait for his wounds to heal naturally. It was too slow and boring. Of course, it was rational because it was better to save the pill for the final battle, but Wain didn't want to wait. He wanted to go to the last cloud right now.

Doing what a person wanted, regardless of the situation or the time, was true freedom, and Wain didn't care if his freedom interfered with the freedom of others.
