BXBX NOVEL Chapter 66 The Forgotten Name
Wain looked around and saw a silhouette in a gray robe in the distance. The figure in the space sat on the clouds in a lotus pose with his back to Wain.
\'There\'s my opponent.\' Wain thought. A terrifying and powerful aura emanated from this silhouette, and Wain felt the same energy as from the bone gate.
Wain stepped forward, and to his surprise, he could also stand on the clouds but already on the dark clouds. He strolled towards the silhouette, and when Wain was halfway, the figure similarly stood up and turned to face him.
This man was dressed in a spacious gray robe with the image of a white dragon on it. In appearance, it was a tall man with long ashy hair reaching his waist. This man\'s skin was gray.
One eye of the man was white, and the other was black. In this man\'s hands was a simple-looking, completely rusted sword. But, all this paled before the most remarkable detail of his appearance.
He had no heart, or rather, where the heart should have been, was a hole as wide as the palm of his hand.
Behind him, Wain saw a small white pearl in a cage of spiritual energy. On this cage was a sign in the shape of a whirlwind. The exact same sign was on the man\'s chest.
"Finally..." He muttered dryly, "How long has it been since I last saw someone?"
Wain armed himself with his sword and was ready for battle at a moment\'s notice. The man in front of him was strange but definitely extremely dangerous.
"Who are you?" Wain asked.
The man looked at him calmly and said, "Who am I? I don\'t know... it\'s been too long for me to remember. I\'ve even forgotten my name..."
\'He sounds like he\'s confused, but judging by the sign on his chest, he\'s here for a reason. What\'s more, he doesn\'t look like a normal monster, and maybe he\'s not even a monster. What\'s going on in this place?\' Wain pondered.
The Purgatory zone he was in held too many mysteries. Every time Wain thought about it, there were more questions but no answers.
"Have you forgotten your name?" Wain asked, surprised.
The man looked at him and said, "At least I have one, unlike you. Call me Forgotten. Why did you come here?"
"Forgotten? Have it your way. Isn\'t it obvious why I came here? I want that pearl and the soul." Said Wain.
At that moment, his Seal of Darkness pulsed, but he couldn\'t tell exactly where the waves of energy were coming from.
This energy was not the energy of the World of Darkness. The pulses pointed Wain to the location of the necessary soul to open the second form.
"Have you come for a soul? I do not understand you, but I cannot give you this pearl." Forgotten said calmly.
"Why not? Are you afraid that her disappearance will destroy this space?" Asked Wain.
Forgotten shook his head and said, "No, if this little space disappears, nothing will happen. You are being too frivolous. This pearl must remain here, safe and sound."
\'Is he guarding the pearl? But, from whom and why? The worst that could happen is the destruction of this area, but he doesn\'t see that as a problem. All right, it\'s none of my business. I need that pearl to get back.\' Thought Wain.
"I\'m giving you a chance to leave. You won\'t be the first one I kill, but that doesn\'t mean I want you to." Calmly Forgotten said.
Wain shook his head and said, "I\'m sorry, but that\'s impossible. Only one of us can get out of here."
Wain was serious. He was having trouble with some of the opponents in the pagoda. But, Forgotten was something else entirely. He could hardly be called a monster or a man.
Forgotten nodded slightly and said, "Fine, have it your way. But, you will regret your decision. You\'re too weak to stand up to me. Your skills are no match for mine."
The next moment Forgotten raised his rusty sword above his head with one hand. Wain took no action. He was far from his enemy and could quickly react to his attack.
Then Forgotten swung his sword downward. His movement was so fast that Wain could hardly notice anything. After the swing, a wind blade was created, headed toward Wain with lightning speed.
Wain barely had time to take two steps to the side, and the wind blade passed within an inch of him. The power of that swing alone was enormous, the wind blade partially cutting through the clouds below them.
\'Dangerous and very fast. I need to gather a little more information before I make a decision.\' Thought Wain and the plasma sword flew toward Forgotten.
"You can wield that sword? It\'s amazing, you have good abilities, but it\'s not enough." Calmly said Forgotten and put his hand forward.
The black plasma did almost no damage to his enemy, to Wain\'s surprise. When the plasma sword almost reached him, Forgotten stopped the sword with two fingers. A thin layer of ice appeared on Forgotten\'s fingers, but that was the maximum.
Wain tried to bring the sword back to him, but he could not do so. Forgotten\'s grip was too firm. Then he squeezed his fingers harder, and the Plasma Destruction Sword shattered into many pieces.
\'Hmm, he\'s fast and strong. It also looks like he\'s pretty well protected. Okay, how about this?\' Wain thought and pointed his hand toward Forgotten.
"Will you try any other moves?" He asked.
Wain smiled and said, "That\'s right."
The next moment the air vibrated around his hand, and a second later, a Kinetic Shot flew toward Forgotten. Forgotten didn\'t dodge. He swung his arm quickly, and to Wain\'s surprise, the shot was repelled.
\'What was that? If I\'m not mistaken, the moment he swung, his sword was coated with a layer of energy. He\'s fast, strong, and has a good defense. I see.\' Thought Wain.
Forgotten smiled and said, "Okay, thanks for the introduction, it was interesting, but that\'s the end of it."
Whoooos.
Forgotten\'s figure blurred, and he was in front of Wain a moment later. Forgotten made a vertical swing that Wain barely dodged. But then Forgotten struck Wain in the chest with his palm.
Wain did not have time to react to this attack and flew back ten meters. It was the hardest blow he had received in a while.
Forgotten strolled toward Wain as he got to his feet, "I warned you that you were making a mistake. However, it is your decision. You are free to die as you wish."
Wain answered nothing. Forgotten thought, Wain could barely take one punch of his and was already trembling in fear. But, in fact, Wain was busy getting stronger.
\'All of his parameters are probably superior to mine. There\'s no point in me raising my defense because if my attacks can\'t do him any serious damage, then there\'s no use in high defense. I need to get faster to dodge his attacks and stronger so I can kill him.\' Wain thought.
He had saved Status Points specifically for this fight. During the previous attacks, he was able to know his enemy\'s strengths and understand what aspect he lacked to win.
So he opened his Status Points and began to distribute them.
[Wain Norheim

Additional Soul: Last Knight
Title: Savior of the Damned, Echo of Samurai, Mentor Inquisitor
Status Points: 33
Strength: 30 / Agility: 25 / Vitality: 24 / Stamina: 26 / Energy: 88]
Wain could not use Status Points to improve Energy. This stat was unique and very hard to increase, but Wain could quickly increase other stats.
\'His punch was powerful, but not so powerful that I couldn\'t fight after it. But, his speed is something indescribable. If I can\'t react in time to his attacks and counterattack, I\'ll probably lose.\' Wain thought.
He had 33 Status Points, he decided to distribute them between Strength and Agility in a 2:3 ratio.
So Wain quickly increased Agility to 47 points, for which he used 22 Status Points. Wain also increased Strength to 41 points using 11 Status Points.
After he distributed all his Status Points, his stats changed significantly.

\'That\'s a whole new thing. Now I can have a lot of fun.\' Wain thought, and the next moment his aura began to increase rapidly.
Wain immediately felt that he became much stronger and faster, but that was only a preparation. He deliberately distributed Status Points now. He wanted to get the maximum effect.
\'This looks dangerous.\' Thought Forgotten and rushed toward Wain. He didn\'t expect Wain to have such strong skills. It was beyond his expectation.
Wain\'s hair turned white, and he wore black and white armor. Code of Light and Darkness was in full force in less than a second.
A powerful aura emanated from Wain, and Forgotten felt that he might die if he did not get serious.
At the same instant, Forgotten struck a swift sword blow. Wain could not have dodged this attack at such a distance. But, suddenly, his body became a blur, and he was behind Forgotten.
"It\'s time to enjoy the fight to the last drop of blood. Don\'t you think so?" Wain said with a smirk.
