Nameless King
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.

"What?"
"Do you know where it is?"
Wain, Ern, and Erza were puzzled.
"Yes, that city burning in flames... that's my home... I'm sure of it."
"That was unexpected, but it's great. Isn't it?" Ern grinned.
"Yes, now we have a purpose, and we will accomplish two tasks at once. We'll all go there together, first I'll tour the town with Alice, and then we'll head into the misty forest."
"When do we leave?" Erza asked.
"Depends on Wain, but I would take my time and prepare thoroughly if I were you. We have the map, and hardly anyone else knows how to this secret place. Wain needs Legendary Souls, and Alice needs to get stronger and learn a few tricks."
"Okay." Erza shrugged, "I'll fight in the arenas for now, then. Ern, where's the booze in this mess?"
"Look in the cupboards. There must be something in there, just don't be surprised if the bottle is older than you are."
"Then I'll do the cleaning!" Alice jumped up.
