Nameless King

Traitors could sometimes be found among men. Some of them acted in mercenary interests. Some betrayed out of cowardice. But some people were forced to cross.

Elsa was one such person. She could have fought with Dylan to the very end, but she would have died in that case.

There was really nothing to condemn her for. Most people in her place would have done precisely that. Of course, it would now be complicated for her to shed the stigma of being a traitor. But, she survived.

"Hey, Gisle, what shall we do with them?" Asked Wain pointing at the other members of the Sea Punishers.

Since the battle between the two organizations ended with Elsa\'s betrayal and Dylan\'s death, there was no battle. The members of the Sea Punishers stood stunned, trying to figure out what to do next. No one expected Elsa to dare take such a step.

"I\'m about to find out." Gisle muttered and stepped forward and said loudly, "I am Gisle Enge, head of Last Light, giving each of you the right to choose! You can join us and become our loyal comrades or die!"

The members of the Sea Punishers whispered among themselves for a while, but then each of them headed toward Gisle. They got down on one knee, showing their loyalty.

The members of the Sea Punishers had followed Dylan, but now they had no leader. Gisle was the only suitable person for the role, and they decided they would follow him now.

They did not betray Dylan like Elsa. The members of the Sea Punishers had the same expectations for Gisle as they had for their previous leader. The person they follow must lead them to success and greatness in this terrible era for all mankind.

Gisle grinned and muttered contentedly, "Success."

At that moment, his blood was boiling, and he felt superior. He felt more and more power in his hands every day. When he was an ordinary student, there was no way he could have experienced something like that.

"But, it\'s different now..." Gisle muttered, and suddenly his body glowed brightly.

Everyone looked at him warily. It was something unusual. They were worried that something terrible might have happened to Gisle. The glow intensified with each second. It was like a golden shell, which was entirely engulfed by Gisle in an instant.

"What happened to you?" Teresa asked cautiously.

Neither of them had ever seen anything like it. Moreover, there was no reason for something like this to happen to Gisle.

Gisle shook his head and said, "It\'s nothing serious. I just became what I\'ve been for two months now."

The others looked at him, puzzled. They didn\'t understand what Gisle was so happy about. But, there was a massive message in front of him at that moment, which he read carefully.

[You have received the Title - Leader]

[Leader

You have already been followed by over ten thousand people, an incredible feat for any human being. Your actions and decisions have proven that you are a born leader. Out of millions of people, only a few can match you.

If you continue to move at this pace, perhaps you can one day become a king.

As proof of your status, all your loyal subordinates will tire 10 percent slower, and their morale will be stronger. Now when they fight for you, they will fight at full strength for longer and are unlikely to lose their will to live.

Each leader should have his own loyal subordinates. You can choose three people to be your main helpers and comrades. Each of them will receive a 5 point increase in all stats, and their recovery will increase by 15%]

Gisle then closed the information window, and a golden pillar burst out of his body. It was as massive and tall as the one that emanated from Lea when she created the masterpiece.

In the next moment, everyone who was a member of Last Light felt a little better. Their bodies were covered in a golden glow, and they all looked at Gisle. He was now their one and only leader.

The golden glow appeared even on the bodies of those not on the beach at that moment. All that mattered was the fact that they were members of Last Light.

Even though they were several kilometers away from the coast, they could see the glow emanating from Gisle. They intuitively sensed that he was their leader.

However, there was one person on the beach around whom no glow appeared. It was Wain. He was surprised by what was happening, but it didn\'t change the fact that he didn\'t belong to anyone.

Wain was alone, he didn\'t want to be part of any organization or have his own. The most important thing to him was freedom, and he was only going to act the way he wanted to go.

"I guess I made the right choice once again by betting on Gisle. I don\'t know what happened, but it makes sense." Mumbled Wain, took out a cigarette, and lit up.

He was actually a little disappointed in what had happened. He had hoped for a bloody battle, but instead, he saw one pathetic but logical betrayal. He had seen it hundreds of times before, and it bored him.

While everyone was excited and thrilled about what was happening, Wain sank into his own thoughts.

He was the only black spot exuding a genuine and lonely aura among the hundreds of shining dots.

When everyone had calmed down, Gisle issued instructions, and about three hundred men headed for the former main base of the Sea Punishers. Gisle had no intention of staying there, as his main objective was still to infiltrate the northern part of Overion.

He appointed a head of that base, left a few men to guard the place, and resolved a few other urgent matters. There were a large number of people living in the main base of the Sea Punishers, and they were shocked by the changes that had taken place. But, Gisle had a way with public speaking, and most people accepted that he was now in charge and their leader.

Gisle also ordered his men to get some food from the town, as he wanted to set up a temporary camp at the canyon.

Gisle\'s group headed towards the canyon when all the problems were solved. On their way, they encountered several monsters, but considering how much power they summarily possessed, such opponents could do them no harm.

After a while, more than two hundred groups reached the canyon that separated the eastern and northern parts of Overion. Gisle gave instructions, and a temporary base was quickly built on that spot.

Each person had food and water, so there was no problem with meals. Gisle decided to head north after sunrise. At this point, he wanted his men to rest and gain strength.

"Agnes, Teresa, Grut, come to me." Said Gisle pointing to his three comrades.

Gisle decided that these very people were to be his chief helpers. Of course, Gisle had also thought about using the Title effect on Wain. But, he realized that this was a pointless idea.

Wain was the only one around whom no golden glow appeared. Gisle knew what that meant. It saddened him a little, but he knew it could not be otherwise.

\'Powerful men will always try to make their way alone. Maybe that\'s the only way to strength, but maybe they\'re just stubborn and don\'t make the most of their opportunities because they often try to act on their own.\' Thought Gisle.

"Gisle, what did you want?" Asked Agnes.

"I recently received a unique Title, and I want to share something with you."

...

While Gisle was using the effect of the Title on his chosen people, Wain sat on the roof of a building and smoked. He looked up at the bright blue moon and pondered what had happened.

Wain was not omnipotent. He was as ignorant as others about many things. Moreover, this world was the only one for everyone but him. Unlike them, Wain knew that there were other worlds, at least his.

\'My world was destroyed, but this one remains intact. Moreover, this world is radically different from mine. There are similarities like Soul Chest, skills, souls, and so on. But, there are also significant differences. With each day I stay here, the world changes more and more.\' Thought Wain blowing out a puff of smoke.

Whoooosh.

Suddenly a shadow appeared beside him. It sat down next to him and said, "Wain, what are you doing here?"

"Zero... I thought I\'d gotten far enough away from the hustle and bustle." Mumbled Wain was looking up at the blue moon.

"Why do you always try to be alone? When I look at you, I think you look like an ancient glacier that no heat can melt." Proclaimed Zero.

"Huh? Aren\'t you just like me?" Wain asked in amazement.

Zero shook her head, "No, I\'m not really. I\'m just not used to the guys yet, but I actually understand that every one of them is a good and kind person. I don\'t understand you. Do you really have a piece of ice instead of a heart?"

Wain smiled weakly, "That\'s not exactly true. Zero, you have to understand that there are no people without feelings. Even the worst criminals and scumbags have them.

But, some like to be in the center of the company, and some like to be alone with themselves. However, I must admit that my heart is colder than others."
