The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 547 Rebirth of the Golden Claw Lightning Hawk

Klaus remains in the cocoon for days.

A month has already passed since he stepped into the dungeon. But within the month he entered, Klaus had grown several times stronger, and as such, he can now be called a powerhouse for Mother Earth.

He can now kill Ascendents, beings considered the pinnacle of the human race. He is now killing them on a daily basis. That is just too shocking.

Now, he had started a new path where his strength would rise severalfold even more. The path of his finally transforming into a Sage will yet again make him become much more powerful.

Klaus has become a monster in a way.

But while he was still held up in the cocoon, things were going on the outside.

[Celestial Mountain Academy]

A few days ago, Kathy, Hannaʼs beast companion, who had been diligently practicing the technique Klaus gave her before he left for the dungeon, finally made some progress.

The technique allowed her to assume a near-perfect human form once she broke through. Of course, it wasnʼt as simple as it sounded, but since she was determined to become human, she and Hanna had stayed in seclusion all this time.

Finally, Kathy made progress, and it was time for her to break through.

Hanna was overjoyed, so she went to Nari, who took them to the place where all disciples could face their tribulations.

”I will be waiting for you here, Kathy. We all will,” Hanna said with a proud smile.

Anna and Lily were also there to show their support. They had already told Hanna that when Kathy was facing her tribulation, they would want to witness it.

”Weʼre rooting for you, Kathy,” Lily said with an encouraging smile.

They would soon have their own tribulations, so they wanted to watch and prepare accordingly.

Kathy nodded and walked to the tribulation ground. She was about to break through to the Transcendent stage according to the human cultivation scale.

Naturally, this would make her a True Beast. But, like Hanna and the others, she had no idea how dangerous the tribulation might be.

Monsters only undergo Tribulations when they are becoming true Beasts.

She possessed the lightning attribute, so when the clouds began to gather, everyone held their breath in anticipation.

Kathy assumed her monster form, revealing her brilliant blue feathers and wide wingspan. She soared into the air, waiting for the first lightning bolt to strike.

It only took a few minutes before the lightning began raining down. Hanna and the others watched anxiously as the bolts descended one after another.

To them, it looked terrifying. But in reality, the tribulation was relatively simple. The lightning contained 80% restorative will and only 20% destructive will.

It wasnʼt something that could truly endanger her.

If Klaus had been there, he would likely have cursed the heavens. The tribulation Kathy was facing was so mild that it wouldnʼt have harmed him, even if he was a mere human without any abilities.

The disparity was glaringly obvious, a clear sign of how the heavens viewed him.

They despised him to the core.

The lightning rained down for a few minutes until flying lightning monsters appeared. Kathy, of course, battled them and continued to absorb the tribulation rune, which lasted for another 20 minutes until the tribulation cloud finally cleared.

But that was when her changes began.

The moment the tribulation ended, Kathy soared down and transformed into her previous half-beast form. Then, using the technique Klaus had given her, she overrode the normal transformation that was supposed to happen and began channeling the technique.

Lightning burst out of her body, enveloping her in a storm that immediately summoned the lightning clouds back.

However, instead of a tribulation meant to kill, this was more like a blessing of lightning. She was shrouded in a storm of electricity, and for two hours, she remained within it.

A little after two hours, a powerful lightning bolt of pure golden hue struck. At once, a wave of immense energy filled the area, forcing Nari to move the three ladies back.

”What is happening?” Hanna asked, panicked.

”It seems she is undergoing a transformation and awakening her lightning element,” Anna replied, her gaze fixed on the powerful golden lightning raining down on Kathy.

”It seems so. I have witnessed something similar before,” Nari added, managing to calm Hannaʼs racing heart. Hanna and her Beast Companion had become close these past weeks, so she was anxious to see her undergo such drastic changes.

The four ladies waited patiently for another three hours until, finally, the clouds cleared.

As everything became visible, they were greeted by the sight of a stunning golden-blonde beauty who, without a doubt, would become one of the top beauties of the academy.

Kathy had transformed. No longer resembling a bird, she now appeared more like a human female, seemingly the same age as Hanna.

In fact, she had adopted some of Hannaʼs features. They didnʼt look like twins, but she could easily pass as a family sister.

She had perfect cheekbones, similar to Hannaʼs, and her hair was even longer, flowing behind her like a golden waterfall.

Her slender legs, moderate chest, and, well, her backside would undoubtedly make many heads turn.

She had a flat tummy and pale skin with a faint golden hue. Her golden eyes, much like Klausʼs, shone brightly, and her golden eyebrows had subtle strands of white woven through them.

On her back, however, were three pairs of golden angelic wings that seemed to be made from fibrous material. Golden lightning crackled around them, giving her an ethereal, divine aura.

On her forehead was a tattoo of lightning, crossed with another lightning bolt. This tattoo shows she had awakened her lightning element and gained Elemental recognition.

Hanna moved and appeared in front of her with a smile. She took clothes from her space ring and handed them to Kathy. Kathy received the clothes, and with a flick, her wings vanished.

She wore the clothes which made her look even more gorgeous.

Afterward, she used the connection between her and Hanna to convey something. None of the ladies watching could tell what she was telling her, but they soon saw the outcome.

Hanna obeyed, hugged her, and brought their faces together. Their foreheads met, and golden lightning immediately surrounded them.

A few seconds later, Hannaʼs blue lightning burst out, mixing with the golden lightning coming from Kathy. This continued for about three minutes before it stopped. They pulled back and smiled at each other.

Hanna gestured with her body, and two pairs of blue angel wings appeared, shocking both Lily and Anna. The wings looked majestic.

But that wasnʼt all. Hanna immediately felt her strength rise by 20%, thanks to Kathy finally becoming a Transcendent.

”Thank you, Kathy,” Hanna said, making Kathy hug her again.

”Thank you. I wouldnʼt have gained this if not for you and your brother. I should thank him when he comes back.” Kathy smiled, knowing Klaus would definitely be happy.

She had become stronger and more beautiful and could now help Klausʼs friends go on missions without worrying about anything.

”Ladies,” Kathy said, approaching Lily, Nari, and Anna, who were thrilled about her transformation. A pair of golden feathers adorned her hair, making her even more stunning.

Find your next adventure on

”Youʼve become very beautiful, Kathy. I bet the boys will be all over you when they see you,” Lily giggled, taking her arm.

Anna did the same, and soon they returned to the academy. Lily and Anna quickly went into seclusion.

Within the week, they would become Saints, too. Nari went back to her and Klausʼs room and, as always, fell asleep. Without even realizing it, she had started to miss Klaus.

Hanna and Kathy went to their room to talk about her transformation.
