The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1032: Farewell

The Golden Egg and the Black Egg merged during the time Klaus was absorbing the True Demon Core to boost his cultivation.

Right when they merged, Klaus sensed something incredibly powerful fuse with his soul.

He wasn’t awakened back when the Golden Core merged with him and extracted the System given to him by the heavens when he awakened his Class.

Back then, during the extraction process, both the senior and that sneaky Black Egg hidden well within Klaus’s soul all this while worked together to extract that System, and the Black Egg absorbed it.

But it didn’t end there. After consuming the System the heavens gave him, it went ahead and tried to devour the Golden Core.

However, it quickly realized that it was impossible, so the senior proposed a truce in which the two should merge and become one.

Back then, the senior merely wanted to ensure there were no two powerful entities clashing inside Klaus’s soul, so he proposed that idea.

If only he knew the decision to merge the two would result in something so powerful even the heavens never saw coming.

Klaus moved closer to the egg and placed his palm on it.

”It is almost ready.”

Klaus smiled.

His nine soul bodies were also around the egg, but they had no idea what was contained inside. They wanted to ask, but when they saw Klaus sit in a lotus posture and close his eyes, they chose to hold off on their question for now.

Hours passed, and the nine soul bodies stood beside Klaus, staring at the multicolored egg. They didn’t know when Klaus would be done with what he was doing, but they had all the time in the world to wait.

Thankfully, after 20 hours of waiting, the egg started to shine. Soon, its multicolored light filled the soul sea. The light was so bright that when it subsided, all nine soul bodies couldn’t see a thing for ten whole minutes.

”What was that?” Velkhan, the Paragon of Shadows, asked, rubbing his eyes. ”The light just now contained some form of Law that I haven’t felt before or recognized.”

The others nodded.

”There is something definitely strange about this egg.”

”I hope it is not some bad news for Klaus.”

”Definitely not bad news,” Efad said. ”I can sense a nourishing feeling coming from it when the light fills this place. I believe it is here to help Klaus.”

The nine soul bodies continued to talk for a few more minutes before the egg suddenly cracked. The crack spread quickly, and before long, the shell came undone.

What was revealed caused both Klaus and all nine soul bodies to widen their eyes.

”Is that a fairy?” Paragon asked, looking at the small being covered in nothing but her multicolored wings. She was curled up like a ball, her head touching her knee, her hair flowing down her back.

She was just too small to the point that she could sit on Klaus’s shoulder. In fact, she could stand in Klaus’s palm.

Klaus looked at the small fairy for a few minutes and then vanished from his soul sea. His nine soul bodies followed him. When they appeared, Klaus closed his eyes immediately.

He could sense that something important was happening to his body and within his body, so he wanted to pay attention to it.

However, a few minutes after he emerged from his soul sea, the senior voice entered his head.

[Brat, I believe this is where we part ways.]

Klaus snapped his eyes open and stood up. His heart skipped a beat when he heard what the senior said.

”What do you mean by this is where we part ways?” Klaus understood what the sentence meant, but he had to ask again.

[I know you are smart and can already sense what that fairy was. She is something you have been cultivating for a very long time. When we first met and became friends, you told me that a day would come when she would awaken.

Initially, I wasn’t expecting that day to come this soon. But then again, who would have thought you would find a sentient life and merge it with the Paragon System?

Also, even if you had this sentient life from the start, the merging would have taken 10 years, which would have been 10 more years to spend with you.

However, now that we are here, I can only complete the mission you gave me and be on my way. The longer I wait, the more difficult things will become.]

Klaus sighed deeply, but the look of unwillingness was deep on his face.

Hearing that the senior was about to leave saddened him.

He had been with him from the day he awakened. Klaus had relied on him for years, and thanks to his guidance, he rose to the stage he is now.

Whenever he needed help, the senior always came through for him. In fact, it reached a point where the senior became a father figure for him. He always guided him on the right path, and whenever Klaus was about to make any reckless mistake, he always reminded him of the repercussions.

So hearing he was leaving was a great heartbreak.

”Are we going to meet again in this life?” Klaus asked, and there was a few seconds of pause before the senior replied.

[Definitely. If one day you were to reach the realm of the gods, you can come find me in the Infinity Realm. I live out of this Universe and out of this time.

It is only after you reach the God Realm that you can come to me. I will leave the coordinates to the Infinity Realm inside the System. It will become accessible to you only when you reach godhood.]

Klaus nodded. He knew the senior took a risk answering this question, so he was grateful.

”Before you leave, can you answer one more question?” Klaus asked, his voice low like a child who had already started missing his father, who was about to go on a long trip.

[Ask away, brat.]

”Is my father dead or alive?” This question was something weighing heavily on his heart. The relationship he had with his father was one that defined who he is now.

In a way, his father, without telling him, had already mentally prepared him to become a warrior before he went missing, so he had to know.

[All I can say is the Madhunter I knew, not even gods can kill him. However, as to whether I can confirm if he is dead or alive, you will have to find out for yourself.

But I believe the answer will come to you sooner rather than later.]

Klaus nodded again and sat down.

”I will be sure to rise through the ranks and become a god so I can come find you.”

[Looking forward to that reunion, brat. Until then, remember what I always say. You are not alone.

As a Paragon, you were meant to be alone, hated by everyone.

However, you are currently the opposite of what the heavens intended for you. This means you are several times more powerful.

Use this bond to beat them at their own game. They will do all they can to kill you, but with your brain, friends, and loved ones standing behind you, I believe you will prevail.

Until then, use the powerful helper you are about to obtain well.]

Klaus felt a powerful energy flow into his soul, and then his vision went dark.

At the same time, a message appeared on his Vision...
