The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

”Uhm Klaus, how do you have someone’s Dark Space ID when they haven’t given it to you themselves?” Scarlet, Kilian’s girlfriend, asked, curled up in his arms.

At her question, the rest of his friends turned and looked at him, realization dawning on them.

Klaus just smiled and answered, ”Oh, I forgot to tell you guys, but I was the one who created the Dark Space. So I have admin access.”

”Of course you did.” They laughed, knowing that when it came to Klaus, there was just nothing he couldn’t do.

”You know, I had my suspicions when you first hijacked the screens to broadcast your stream,” Kilian said, flashing a rare smile. ”I guess something this powerful can only be built by a Paragon.”

After witnessing Klaus do one mind-bending thing after another, nothing seemed to shock them anymore. In fact, they all subconsciously knew he was responsible for such a creation, so the reveal wasn’t too shocking.

Mark smiled and said, ”I will reach out. However, as to whether she would be happy to see me or take my words to heart, I don’t really know.”

”Do what you can, bro. At the end of the day, whether she listens to you or not depends on her own level of understanding and loyalty.”

Mark nodded, knowing how unreasonable his sister could be sometimes.

But at least now, knowing his big brother was back, he knew there was a high chance that if he were to talk to her, she would listen. Even so, now that he had become a Supreme, he would reach out, and hopefully she would listen.

”What about you, Kay? Do you have any plans to return to the Elves or the Phoenixes?” Klaus asked, turning his attention to Mark, who in his past life was both an Elf and a Phoenix.

”I will probably go to the Elven Empire first since, despite their pride, they are much more welcoming than the Phoenixes. Of course, if you need anything from them, I wouldn’t mind stopping by. I am pretty sure some of my friends there would be big-time warriors by now.”

”That is true,” Klaus stated. ”They have come a long way over the years. I just hope they would still be open to forming an alliance with the Elves.”

Kay smiled and asked, ”Are you still mad at them for siding with the Heavens Court to attack the Asura Race?”

Klaus just smirked. ”I couldn’t care less about that. I have already settled the debt they owed me during my 8th Incarnation, so regardless of what decisions they make today, as long as it doesn’t go beyond my bottom line, I will leave them be.”

”That’s good,” Scarlet, who was also a Phoenix, sighed, knowing at least she wouldn’t witness a clash between the Paragon and her race.

While she owed them nothing, considering everything she had now wasn’t given to her by the mighty Phoenix Race, she would be sad to see them fight against Klaus.

Seeing the relieved expression appear on her face, Klaus smiled.

”Relax, Scarlet, the last thing I want is to clash with the inhabitants of this universe when we could work together to make sure all life is protected. Shit, I don’t even plan on attacking the demons despite their major role in annihilating the Asura Race.

I’ve lived long enough to know when to see the bigger picture and when to be petty. Believe it or not, some of my best friends are demons, so you have nothing to worry about.”

She smiled and nodded.

”How about you, Kilian? The Dream Human Clan still lives somewhere in the Human Universe.”

Kilian shook his head, showing no emotion on his face. ”I ended my service to the Dream Human Race years ago, Klaus, so no, I have no plans on going back there. I have a new life now, and I intend to live it to the fullest.”

Klaus just sighed and nodded.

Kilian’s past was indeed sad.

He was the greatest general of his race, saving them from one danger after another. To thank him, the king killed his family, and when he went berserk, his own people turned on him.

They forgot all the good he had done for them and instead attacked him fiercely. So while he had no hateful expression on his face, Klaus could tell he hated them and wouldn’t care if they faced annihilation today.

’I guess that is their penance for not knowing when to appreciate someone’s sacrifice.’

”So what next?” Danny asked, already eager to find a battle and showcase his newfound abilities. In fact, he wanted them to leave for the Ancient Battlefield already.

”There are still four more teammates to add, so we won’t leave until they are done with their awakening.”

Klaus waved his hand, and three cocoons appeared. These cocoons contained the bodies of the three old friends he had saved from the Celestial Supreme and Axarax.

The fourth person, of course, was Gorr, who, from what Kilian’s weapon spirit said, would be awakening in a couple of hours.

It would take a lot to eradicate the Foreign Race. However, since Axarax had revealed that he would make the pressure from the Foreign Race even more intense, Klaus knew he had to go there in person.

But he wouldn’t be going alone. His friends would be by his side, and so would some of his wives. So, regardless of what Axarax had planned, he would make sure he didn’t succeed.

Efad was close to clearing the 5th Void Vortex. This meant Atomic would have more energy to upgrade more warriors.

So with enough time, while Axarax might pose a significant threat, Klaus knew they would succeed in stopping him long enough for his final preparations to be completed.

[Somewhere in the Dark Space]

Meanwhile, somewhere inside the Dark Space, a meeting that had never happened before was about to take place, featuring 24 powerful Pseudo-Primordials.

These 24 were the 24 Generals of the 24 remaining Heaven Armies.

Since Klaus had banished the 25th Heaven Army, only 24 remained, and today they were all meeting to discuss the current state of the Heavens Court and what it truly stood for.

Inside a large hall, 24 powerhouses had gathered, ready to start the meeting. After a few minutes of silence, the First General spoke, her voice spreading across the hall.

”Thank you all for coming. I know the current state of affairs in the Heavens Court has gone to shit. However, we are here now, so we might as well make progress.”

They all nodded, and she continued.

”I called this meeting to address three things. The first, as we all know, concerns the Paragon and how we intend to handle his recent revelations and brazen claims. We all heard and saw what he said, and while I would love to shut down his claims, I think the evidence was clear.

However, we also saw the kind of person he is and how much planning he puts into every move. This makes him dangerous, so we have our work cut out for us. How are we going to handle him?”
