Nameless King

Many creatures in this world possess high speed.

Some of them could easily move faster than the speed of sound, and some, like Light Racer, were trying to reach the speed of light, an absolute and unattainable value. After all, even approaching the speed of light was already incredibly powerful due to inertia and kinetic power.

However, what about teleportation? Was it possible in a world with multiple races, Dragons, and humans who could create black holes or flames out of nothing?

Sure, but not everyone could achieve it to the fullest extent because it usually either required high speed or some sort of ability.

More often than not, teleportation required a great loss of energy and a certain amount of time. Even Alucard, creating a stream of blood had to take a few seconds to get out of position, summon the blood, and end up in the desired location.

Gael decided to change that and use the power of the fourth scar to combine the two necessary conditions in order to achieve a better result.

Whoooooooooooooosh.

While Ereg stared wide-eyed at the sphere that was able to dodge his attack in a split second, Gael disappeared.

At the same moment, the sphere shuddered, and they switched places with Gael - instantly, it took him less than a second to do so, and it was insanely fast for such an action.

"Hey, you should stop thinking about your failure, because you have a more important task! You need to tackle me!" Gael uttered with a sly smile, sheathing his sword at Ereg.

Ereg's pupils narrowed as his ether once again turned into a pair of long, sharp claws. He could no longer rely on his fists when he had to fend off Gael's sword.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The space shuddered from their collision, as the ground beneath Gael's feet cracked. His hands trembled slightly, for Ereg now surpassed him in physical power.

"Hah, it looks like someone miscalculated their strength. Gael, have you forgotten that your scars give you abilities, but each one doesn't increase your strength? I, on the other hand, am constantly striving for the top, strengthening my body and increasing my energy density!" Ereg majestically uttered, feeling that just a little more and Gael would no longer be able to hold the block.

Gael smiled bitterly.

"Hey, do you really think that's all my fourth scar can do? I mean, the time of the vortex hasn't come yet, but the spheres have several purposes."

Ereg got a puzzled look on his face. He didn't understand what Gael was talking about, because like most of the audience he knew nothing about Gael's fourth giant scar.

Gael shrugged, loosened his grip on his sword by removing one hand, and swung it slightly.

Ereg was wary. He realized that Gael had done it for a reason, because he had to release his hand to do it, so he was controlling something!

Whooooooooooooooooooosh.

Before Ereg could realize it, one of the wind spheres turned into a flat, wind blade. Ereg didn't see it since the blade was behind him, but his instincts told him that he had to dodge right away!

However, before Ereg could even take a step, the wind blade shuddered and ended up on the ground, in front of Gael's feet.

"I decided not to aim this time, but who knows what I'll do next one?" Gael smirked, looking at Ereg's shocked face.

Ereg touched his shoulder, where a thin trickle of blood was coming out from a thorough wound running through his entire shoulder.

It took him a moment to realize that the blade had gone through his shoulder. In fact, since Ereg was the target, the wind blade had only been able to do a fraction of the damage, as his wound looked as if a thin needle had gone through it, not a sword. However, it was only one blade out of many, and there was no telling how much damage Ereg could take without consequences.

Nila, watching the battle and wishing with all her heart that Ereg would win again, began to worry. She shuddered as she looked at the dozens of spheres floating in the arena.

She realized that under the wind dome covering the entire Colosseum, Gael had limitless possibilities. Moreover, the vortex at the center of the storm clouds was slowly gaining strength and soon would become a serious threat to Ereg.

"Hmm... How curious. It can not only change places with the spheres but also turn them into weapons that travel at sonic speed or even faster." Nitra muttered, rubbing her chin thoughtfully.

Liang turned to Alucard with a slight flame of curiosity in his eyes.

"Hey, is the scar capable of anything else?"

Alucard shrugged.

"I don't know. Isn't that enough? I feel like it would be difficult for any of us to resist such a power, even Ereg is starting to gradually panic."

Liang sighed heavily.

"Well... I hope that's it because this is getting too much. I can see that Ereg is confused. His instincts didn't help him dodge the blade, he didn't know what to do. I don't think any of us would have it easy, though. Not even you, right?" Liang looked intently at Alucard.

Alucard smiled carelessly.

"My regeneration would be useless, because with so many weapons, Gael would just kill me every second. If Ereg wants to win and live to see the whirlwind, he needs to do something of the two options."

Liang, Nila, Krana, and Nitra looked at him, listening intently.

"Either, Ereg will learn to dodge the wind blades and adapt to Gael's teleportations, or he will find a way to destroy the spheres or even the dome."

Alucard continued.

"However, he has little time for that, for Gael will no longer be deterred."

At the same moment, Gael's silhouette shuddered in its place a sphere appeared, and he found himself behind Ereg.

Whooooooooooooosh.

Gael swung his sword, leaving a long cut on Ereg's back from which streams of blood rushed out.

"Argh!" Ereg clenched his teeth due to the vivid pain, as Gael used his energy to make the attack more devastating with Peace Nightmare.

Ereg turned around sharply, trying to counterattack and grab Gael. This way, he would be able to delay his opponent and make some attacks.

However, as soon as their gazes met, Ereg's eyes went wide because Gael waved his hand twice, causing the two spheres behind him to shake.

At the same moment, Ereg saw two flashes that aimed straight for his chest. Gael wasn't kidding, this time he was going to pierce Ereg's heart with one of his blades.

Ereg didn't have time to think and come up with a plan because the blades were moving too fast. After Gael swung his arm, Ereg had no more than a second to do something.

At times like this, Ereg had his own way of solving problems - to trust his instincts completely. Over his long life, over hundreds or even thousands of battles, Ereg had learned to do this naturally.

When he realized that he didn't have time to react, he gave up control of his body completely to his instincts.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Ereg's pupils dilated due to the great adrenaline rush, then ether claws trembled turning into a blob of energy that headed straight for Ereg's chest.

His blue ghost had already reached 89%, so he had enough energy to completely cover his body with an extremely dense barrier if he wanted to.

However, his instincts felt that it wasn't enough, so his body naturally condensed most of the energy into where the wind blades were directed.

Gael frowned slightly, as he realized that now his attack would not be as effective as it should be.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The wind blades, moving at great speed, slammed into Ereg's chest, but could not pierce it because they were stuck in the barrier of blue energy.

However, even this density was not enough to completely block the wind blades, throwing them aside or breaking them. No, the blades were able to pass through the barrier, but only slightly, leaving minor cuts on Ereg's chest that didn't even bleed.

Still, the speed of the wind blades was enough to create a powerful inertia. The impact, threw Ereg backwards, causing him to hit the solid stone wall of the colosseum.

There were several spheres in his path, but when he should have collided with them, they quickly changed their location to avoid him.

Bam.

A trickle of blood flowed from Ereg's mouth, but he had a satisfied smirk on his face as he was able to partially block Gael's attack and also realized a lot about Gael's fourth scar.

Alucard chuckled evilly.

"Looks like Gael lost his opportunity to surprise Ereg, for his opponent was just able to see the weaknesses of his ability."

"Weaknesses? But, I didn't notice anything." Nila muttered with a confused expression.

"Of course, you are. If you were fighting against Gael you would have died long ago, but Ereg is different." Alucard said nonchalantly, causing Nila to puff up her cheeks resentfully.
