Once all people received Souls and incredible powers. Some were lucky enough to obtain the Soul of an ancient and powerful creature, but fate was not favorable to all. The world began to change, and creatures evolved. But, it was not the beginning of a new era. It was the end. A couple of months later, a dark mist appeared and destroyed the world. It was a dictate of destiny from which no one could escape. Wain Norheim was the world's best assassin and the only one who didn't get a soul. However, he was destined to gain the power to confront fate. Escaping through a portal into another world, he unknowingly began the apocalypse. Even the world failed to expel him.
The mention of the Great War was usually taken as just a crucial historical fact, but it was something that had long been forgotten and was forever in the pages of history, but Wain's words had a completely different meaning.
Now Nameless King is back, so if Wain spoke of the imminent outbreak of a second Great War, it was almost inevitable.
"King, do you believe a second Great War is about to begin?" Aurora asked with a worried look.
"Sure. However, it will take quite some time for such a massive event to begin. Moreover, if you haven't reached the Transcendence Stage by then, you won't be on the battlefield." Wain said calmly as he let some of his aura out. He was now on the Absolute Stage, but his latent power far surpassed Aurora's.
"What...? But, even if I couldn't reach the Transcendence Stage I will still fight with you! It is my duty!" Aurora exclaimed in a brave voice.
