The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1086: Wedding Of The Century (5)

”Up next, we have the queen of swords. And yes, when I say queen of swords, I mean that literally. She can command a sea of swords.”

Asmodeus laughed as the spotlight fell on Aoi, who was being walked down the aisle by her father, the Sword King, and her mother.

”They say she can command ten thousand swords. Some say a hundred thousand. However, as to what the true number is, she can command swords, and that is all that matters.”

Of course, commanding swords is the secondary nature of her Endless Sword Domain of Slaughter. The true Aoi, the woman in the mountain whose legend dominated the Primordial Era, was someone whose sword swing was enough to cut the heavens open.

From the day she awakened her sword domain, she never used that skill, for it is a skill reserved for when she truly had no other move left.

It was said that back during the Primordial Era, when she fought the first Paragon, she used that attack nine times, and every time she used it, hundreds of thousands of people died.

One could tell just what kind of danger she posed and why she never used that skill casually.

Aoi prefers to keep her hair short, so among her sisters, she is the only one with short blonde hair. However, even so, she looks equally stunning.

”But she isn’t the only Queen of Swords,” Asmodeus suddenly said after Aoi made her way to the stage.

”We have another one, and well, this one is what we call a one-woman army. She commands not only one sword, but the last time I heard, over a hundred thousand.”

Lulu walked into the spotlight with her father and mother by her side.

During the Death Era, she rose to fame with her Endless Sword Domain, a name inspired by her idol, who was known as the Woman on the Mountain.

This formation can house an endless array of swords formed from the essence and core of slain enemies. So far, she had done a great job adding many swords to the formation.

Klaus had already assigned Lulu to handle the opening of the battle simply because of two things. First, her array of swords needed to be strengthened, and what better way to do that than to have an entire battlefield to herself.

Second, he wanted Lulu to have the chance to form more swords.

Lulu told him she needed 50,000 more swords to complete the first form of the formation. If she were able to achieve that, then she would have 250,000 swords under her command, which, according to her, would allow her to create a one-of-a-kind strike that even Life and Death Stage warriors would struggle against.

She has great potential; all she needs is a chance to shine.

After reaching the Nether Stage, her form changed, and now, she has silver hair like Klaus’s mom.

”Came the Calamity herself.” Asmodeus was already aware of Nari’s nature as a Great Calamity, so he smiled and then added a context nobody asked for.

”Do you know the next woman in my master’s harem has what it takes to bring this planet to its knees? I mean, she wasn’t known as a Great Calamity for nothing.”

Of course, without Nari even appearing, everyone knew she was the one Asmodeus was talking about. Of course, it would be her.

She has a reputation, one that would manifest yet again in the battle coming.

Klaus may have tamed her, but she is still a Great Calamity who, instead of destroying Earth, would now fight to defend it.

When she entered the hall, everyone felt like they were in the presence of a Calamity. Even those watching from home felt like she was standing over them.

Naturally, they still feared her.

Nari could only smile and wish people would treat her more humanely, the way they treat her sisters.

General Manas, one of the orphans she lived with at the orphanage, walked her down the aisle.

Nari, with the help of her sisters, managed to locate some of her brothers and sisters with whom she lived when she was young. Many died, some are old, but a few are warriors like her.

Now that she can feel emotions, she is doing her best to live like a normal human.

”Finally, we have the Vampire Queen.”

Tifa stepped into the hall with both elegance and danger. She is clad in a brown wedding gown, but those sharp red eyes and the way she moved said it all; she is both a danger and a beauty, just like Queenie.

Two of her generals walked her down the aisle.

”Oh boy, that was a tall list. However, we are finally done, and we can proceed to the next stage.” Asmodeus closed the scroll and put it away.

Klaus told him to make things snappy, so that was what he intended. After all, the main event is the celebration that follows.

”Beautiful... Looking at this beautiful lineup, I can’t help but wish I were also getting married.” Asmodeus sighed, ”Too bad you can’t marry what is already dead.”

He laughed, ”However, since we are here for my master, then we can all attest that this is indeed beautiful.”

Everybody nodded.

”On that note, since I know nobody has anything to say that will in any way disrupt this wedding unless they want to become my undead, we should proceed with vows.” He smirked...

”I would have loved for each of them to say their separate vows. However, they told me they all wrote one vow they will read to their man.

So on that note, I invite the ladies to read their vows to their soon-to-be husband.”

Lily stepped forward, holding a screen, a cute little smile on her lips.

The ladies indeed saw her as the most innocent and cute little Lily in the harem, so they made her handle the vow.

She took a deep breath before she started to read, ”We don’t know how many lives you’ve lived. We don’t know how many heartbreaks you had to endure or how many times you wished your life were any different.

We don’t know if you are right or wrong. We don’t know if you are a villain or a hero.

We don’t know...

However, we do know you are our man, our love, our heart. You are the one who made us feel important, happy, safe, and at peace.

So, no matter who you are, what you are, or where you are from, know that we love you, we cherish you, and we will always adore you.

If you are a hero, we will be your sidekicks as we fight to liberate the universe from the hands of evil. But...” Lily smiled, and so did her sisters.

”But if you are a villain, then know that 27 drop-dead beauties will be your evil minions working to expand your evil empire.”

She couldn’t hold back her laughter, though tears were falling from her eyes. Her sisters were the same.

They wanted to write a long and detailed vow; however, in the end, they wrote this, and while Lily read it, they all used the Paragon Mark to say their vows to Klaus telepathically.

They know he has enough mind to hear them all. So they were telling him how they felt... After all, they are speaking from their past lives, something they all knew would bring them pain in their next tribulation.

However, to tell their man how much he meant to them, they didn’t seem to care about the price.

”We love you and no matter what, we will stand by your side as your extra hand, extra weapon, and the pillow you can lie on when you are tired...”

Klaus wiped a tear from his eye.
