The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Thud!

The body of the Cheetah, now littered with cuts and holes, fell with a heavy thud. Klaus smiled cheerfully as he looked at it. His sword vanished into his space ring, and a water bottle appeared in his hand.

“Haa, it’s always good when things work out,” he said, grinning at the massive body of the cheetah, which he had been using as target practice for the past 20 minutes. Without his fancy skills, he knew a one-on-one battle would have left him lying on the floor, but hey, warriors are meant to use their skills, and he was doing just that.

“Dinner time, buddy!” Klaus declared as he crushed the core. The dragon tattoo on his arm glowed, and all the energy was sucked into it. He could sense the dragon’s energy had dropped after its death. He quickly realized that using the dragon as a meat shield was a bad move on his side.

“Sorry, buddy, I didn’t mean to sacrifice you like that,” he said, feeling a twinge of guilt. “But hey, cheer up! We killed it, and now we have just one last monster to take down.” He snapped his usual selfie with the fallen cheetah and then stored its body away.

Klaus moved to a nearby spot and sat down. “Let me level up first before facing that monster,” he thought. Once he leveled up, his stamina and other attributes would be fully restored, along with his Star Qi pool. He was counting on that.

An hour later, a burst of energy erupted out of his body signaling he had leveled up. He opened his status window and smiled looking at his qi pool and stats.

“200 to Agility and 200 to Stamina will do,” Klaus said, allocating the 400 points he had earned to his Stamina and Agility. “God knows I’ll need my speed to escape if things go wrong.”

“I really should focus on boosting my defense next,” he thought. After finishing up a few tasks, he set off for the last location where the Black Flame Devil Fox lives.

He only knew of two skills the fox possessed, one of which was hypnosis. It was said that being within 2 kilometers of it could hypnotize a person. Even worse, once that happened, your stats would drop by 30 percent. That was terrifying enough, but it wasn’t the scariest part.

From what had been gathered over the years, one thing was clear: the fox possessed a type of flame that devoured everything it touched. If Klaus wanted a shot at winning, he’d need an even more precise attack than the one he used on the cheetah.

“Brat, if you manage to kill this monster, you can stay here for a while to cultivate using the method I showed you. This region is very dangerous but rewarding,” Klaus heard his senior’s voice in his head, causing him to smile.

“What do you mean by ‘if’ I manage to kill it? Have some confidence in me, Senior!” Klaus joked.

Although Klaus knew he had to be extra careful, having already killed four out of the five Tier 7 devils while being just a mere Master stage expert made all the difference. He couldn’t help but feel a swell of arrogance about it. God knows he will soon be making waves as a slap in the face to all haters and the dark order who still hasn’t managed to kill him just yet.

He briskly walked across the vast expanse of the fire region, and before long, he found himself in the territory of the Black Flame Devil Fox.

As he made his way toward the core region, he kept his senses sharp and ready for action. After about 20 minutes of careful walking, he finally came within range. Using his spirit eyes, he took a good look at the Black Flame Devil Fox, and it was anything but ordinary.

“It looks like a nightmare,” he muttered to himself. Everything about it was twisted in one way or another. But that wasn’t all; just observing the creature had a hypnotic effect on him. Despite that, he pressed on, determined to study the fox as it devoured a massive five-meter beast it had just killed.

“Oh, this is interesting,” Klaus said, a smile creeping across his face. He had expected something like this. He felt a hot sensation spreading across his back, wiping away the lingering hypnotic effect just when he was about to succumb.

He didn’t know what those tattoos were or why his dad had insisted he get them, but he was sure they were his strongest abilities. One day, he would figure out how to actively use them.

For now, though, he had no control over them; they only activated passively on their own.

Klaus took a deep breath, shaking off the residual effects of the fox’s aura. He couldn’t let himself be caught off guard. With a renewed sense of focus, he prepared to strategize his next move.

“Time to show this fox who’s boss,” he murmured, a confident grin spreading across his face as he readied himself for battle.

Klaus moved forward, confident that the hypnotic effect wouldn’t hit him too hard. As he got within striking distance, the fox sensed him. Without even turning to look, its body ignited in dark flames, and dark smoke began to spread around it.

“Arrogant, huh? Well, that’s your mistake,” Klaus thought, feeling like the monster was looking down on him. Without holding back, he summoned the Ice Lotus, channeling 20 percent of his Star Qi into it.

He hurled it toward the fox. As it got within 20 meters, Klaus could see the creature react, clearly threatened by the extreme coldness.

“Too slow, scum,” he spat, snapping his fingers. The flower stopped just 10 meters from the fox and then exploded.

A wave of ice surged across the entire area, freezing everything in its path. Thankfully, Klaus wasn’t affected this time. But the fox wasn’t so lucky; it was frozen solid, though not dead yet.

“Buddy, get your revenge!” he shouted as the dragon appeared overhead. Without wasting a second, it slashed its tail, sending a sharp arc of fire slicing through the ice and landing on the fox’s neck.

Klaus heard a cracking sound and smiled. The dragon roared in response. “Good job, buddy!” he exclaimed, feeling pumped. He then launched the Void Piercing Needle, which zipped forward and pierced the fox’s body, creating hundreds of holes that ended its existence for good.

“Your mistake was underestimating me,” Klaus smirked, his ego swelling back to life. Little did he know, he had unlocked a terrifying trait within himself he wasn’t even aware of. When looked down upon by others, he became extremely precise and lethal.

With just two attacks, he had taken down the fox he was worried would be hard to kill. It seemed that his anger only made him stronger.

Klaus retrieved the fire core and immediately felt something different about this one. “Senior, what kind of flame is this?” he asked, sensing that the fire from the fox was stronger than his own—or at least stronger than his current flame.

“It’s called the Dark Devouring Flame,” the senior’s voice echoed in his mind. “It has several properties, like hypnosis and lethal burns, but its most dangerous feature is devouring. Anything that touches it will be consumed instantly.”

Klaus’s eyes widened in surprise. “Compared to my Chaotic Nirvana Flame, which is stronger?” Stay tuned for updates on m-v l|-NovelFire.net

The senior chuckled. “Brat, when your Chaotic Nirvana Flame truly awakens, you’ll understand its full power.” ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

Klaus’s eyes widened even further. So he was worried for nothing.

“Great! Time to shock the world again,” Klaus said with a smirk, feeling more confident than ever. He took one last selfie with the monster’s massive body behind him.

Within minutes, five new selfies were uploaded, and as expected, chaos erupted across the internet—and soon, the entire world.
