The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 972: Rebirth of the Paragon of War and Slaughter (1)

[Earth - Two Minutes Before Klaus’s Rebirth - Lulu’s POV]

After the battle against the Ancient Sea Race, everybody returned to Dream City to celebrate the victory. Lulu was one of them.

She was happy to have made so much progress in her Sword Domain formation, which she was actively building.

So, aside from the victory, she was even happier because of that.

However, a few hours ago, at the exact moment Klaus had his tribulation and was cocooned on the red planet, she started feeling dizzy, so she chose to rest for a while.

She fell into slumber the next second, and the dream she had been having for a while now surfaced again. However, this time, she met someone who looked exactly like her.

The person took her around, explaining everything she needed to know and what she had to do. It was a bizarre encounter, but she paid attention to everything.

By the time she woke up, a life she had lived millions of years ago had assimilated with her, making her feel complete.

Her name was Evelyne, the first wife of the Vampire Monarch. Now, her name shall be Lulu, for her rebirth happened just as she had wished.

[Earth - Two Minutes Before Klaus’s Rebirth - Princess Eshira’s POV]

Just like Lulu, Princess Eshira, or as people know her, KKKickinIt, was happy that the battle with the Ancient Sea Race was a success.

Nobody died, so her party side was in full bloom as she joined the warriors of both the Human Alliance and the Bast race to celebrate.

However, right about the same time Lulu went to sleep, she also did, and that was when she met Lene, the second wife of Magnus.

She learned all about her life, and when she woke up, she felt complete, like a part of her was restored, and that made her happy.

[Earth - Two Minutes Before Klaus’s Rebirth - Sofia’s POV]

Sofia, the dragon whose origin Klaus seemed unaware of, was also the same as Lulu and Eshira.

She was also in the party and celebration mood when a sudden dizziness made her feel like sleeping, so she did.

She also met Ria, Magnus’s third wife, and the greatest flame controller to have ever lived. Her life before becoming Magnus’s third wife was just too beautiful.

When she woke up, a weak smile appeared on her face.

”This bastard, I told him to make me his first wife, but I guess I wasn’t even in his top ten. What a player.” Her smile bloomed, knowing that against all odds, her sacrifice wasn’t for nothing.

Klaus is alive, and that was all she wanted.

[Earth - Two Minutes Before Klaus’s Rebirth - Lunara’s POV]

The queen of the Moon race was perhaps the happiest among the thousands of warriors who participated in the battle.

She saw firsthand what Klaus was going through to prepare for the battle that was to come. She knew he was worried, so she wanted to do something to cheer him up.

This was why the battle that had just ended made her happy. She knew this wasn’t their true fight, but the display was enough to give Klaus the assurance he needed.

So, like an ordinary warrior, she joined the celebration.

However, like Lulu, Eshira, and Sofia, she also fell into a deep sleep for a couple of hours, meeting her past self, Clara, the 4th wife, who wanted only one thing: to use the Scythe.

When she woke up, she just smiled, ”I guess he managed to make me fall in love with the Scythe, but he still hasn’t taught me how to use it.”

”I will make him do that soon.”

[Inside the Pentaface Bead - Two Minutes Before Klaus’s Rebirth - Nebula’s POV]

Unlike the four ladies who were in a celebratory tone, Nebula, whom Klaus had sent into the demon face bead, was hidden inside a cave, sweating profusely, unsure when Klaus would take her away.

The feeling she sensed from the Monarch of Despair was enough to make her aware of the danger she was in.

However, a couple of hours ago, she felt dizzy and, without even knowing it, fell asleep.

That was when she met Dahlia, Magnus’s fifth wife and the most battle-ready among all five wives of the Paragon of Wars and Slaughter.

She learned about her life and what she was like back then.

She saw how she and Klaus met, and even recalled the last thing she said before sacrificing her life to create the Five Face Paragon Heart Gem that unlocked Magnus’s powers, allowing him to defy the heavens and save his world.

When she woke up, a smile appeared on her face; however, she was still wary of the Monarch of Despair.

”I suppose we met again as enemies, but he was gentle-ish this time,” she said. However, she wasn’t done speaking when a beam of light swept her away.

The next second, she found herself standing on red soil, alongside four others who appeared at the same time.

They turned and looked at each other for a few seconds before they all went for a heartfelt hug, one that was long overdue.

”Oh, it is so good to see you all again,” Nebula said, shedding a few tears, now back with her sisters. They also shared the same thoughts as her.

Crack.

However, before they could fully reunite, the cocoon Klaus was in cracked, and a bloodthirsty feeling came from within, making all five ladies smile.

”Looks like he is awakening,” Lulu said, already looking forward to that.

”Maybe you ladies should move back first.” Suddenly, a voice spoke from behind them, causing everyone to move back. The ladies moved back first before paying close attention to the veiled lady who spoke.

A few seconds later, they widened their eyes...

”Mother-in-law, is that you?” Evelyne asked.

The lady with the veil covering her face smiled behind the veil, ”Yes, and no. For now, you five should focus on the awakening. He is going to need you.”

The ladies wanted to ask so many questions, but they indeed had to pay attention to Klaus’s awakening.

”I call dibs on his first time,” Sofia said, looking at her sister with a smug expression. They could only grit their teeth and wait for Klaus to awaken.

A few seconds later, the cocoon came undone, and a pale Klaus rose into the air. He was completely naked with only a red-bladed Scythe hovering before him.

On his forehead was a gem with five sides radiating immense power.

Klaus rose into the air for a couple of seconds before his eyes opened.

HISS.

His fangs extended, causing him to hiss. He looked at the five ladies before him, and while he would love to spare them, he knew it had to be done.

Sofia moved, and when she was standing before him, she pulled her hair back and gave her neck to him.

Klaus looked at the vein pumping the blood through her neck and hissed again. Then, using as much restraint as he could muster, he bit into her neck and began drinking her blood.

Right when the blood touched his tongue, the nine doors inside his soul sea shuddered, and nine figures walked out, smiles on their faces.
