The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1177: Rania’s Return...Again

The battle was quick and decisive.

It ended in under 2 minutes.

Lord Trench, Nyxthar, and the others didn’t even lift their weapons. Asmodeus did all the work...

Asmodeus didn’t use Hades since the bastard chose not to fight an underhanded battle. Ambushing the enemy when they least expected it wasn’t his style, so he refused to help...

So Asmodeus went mad and unleashed 7 Peak Nirvana-stage Undead demons.

Nobody knew when he had these horrors, but the 5-meter-tall demons with colossal black swords came out, and in under two minutes, all ten Nirvana stage warriors were dead, and the 13 Engineers were suppressed.

”That is how it is done... Thank you,” Asmodeus waved his hand, and the seven towering demon swordsmen went back to the harrowing depths of his incandescent, tainted soul.

Lord Trench and the others who were meant to aid him in killing the Nirvana stage warriors could only look at him in horror and wonder just what had just happened.

One minute, they were getting ready to ambush the unsuspecting Nirvana stage Nethran warriors sent by King Ardent to aid General Thorn; the next minute, all ten of them were dead.

”What the hell, Asmodeus? When did you have seven Peak Nirvana Stage warriors?” Nyxthar asked, unsure how to handle what had just happened.

None of them could fathom just how terrifying Asmodeus had become. One person commanding seven Nirvana stage warriors is not to be taken lightly.

Asmodeus grinned at the sight of the shocked expressions on their faces. ”About a year ago,” he answered.

”I have been trying to hide them for a while, but some bastard who refuses to cooperate made me mad, so I had to compromise. Of course, I never expected him to be such a drama queen, but the point is, I now have the Seven Demons of Dread as my undead soldiers... Yay.”

Nyxthar and the others shook their heads. ”So how much more are you hiding?”

Asmodeus pretended he didn’t hear the question and walked toward the ten dead Nirvana stage warriors. Soon, he vanished with the bodies, leaving everyone to wonder if he had more than he had shown.

”I hate necromancers...” In the end, Lord Trench said what was on his chest.

Yuying and Queenie arrived a second later, and without wasting much time, Yuying charmed them. They soon put them to work...

”Mount the C-Class weapons and make sure you imbue these runes into them.”

Yuying handed over the runes that would trigger the explosion. They then took the three B-Class weapons and the A-Class weapon, which they planned to assemble and use as a last resort if things did not go as planned.

Once they were done, they returned to Earth.

The enemy would arrive in less than six months, so they had plenty of time to make final preparations.

***

A month later, Rania returned from her shopping. She came back with three others, each a Nirvana stage warrior that her mom had sent to come aid in the coming battle.

Of course, she also wanted to make sure her daughter was protected, so she spared no expense to send three of her best.

”This is Senna, Cellete, and Alora. They are all in the same unit I am a part of — The Flying Valkyries.” Rania introduced the three beautiful ladies she came with.

”Nice meeting you. I am Yuying, this is Queenie, and Lulu.”

The three ladies nodded, but their gaze was fixed on Lulu.

As beings from Caelmir, it would be impossible not to recognize Lulu, even if she was no longer the same person.

She was the first wife of the Paragon of War, someone who had defied the norm and chosen to become the wife of an abomination.

She then fought to the death when Caelmir was in dire straits. Such a person cannot be forgotten, not when Caelmir is now a full supporter of the Paragon.

”Are you really Saintess Evelyne like the stories say?” The blonde named Cellete asked, keeping her enthusiasm just above average.

Lulu smiled at her and then answered, ”I don’t know about the Saintess part, but I was indeed Evelyne, a very long time ago.”

The three ladies smiled, finally meeting their idol, even though they were much stronger than she was now.

The Flying Valkyries are a unit formed from the bravery of the six ladies who died so the Paragon of War could be born.

They believed in them even though none of them knew them personally. So meeting one of them in person was like the best thing that had ever happened to them.

”I told you she is real. Now, wait till you meet the rest... Even Saintess Dahlia is here, and guess what, she still uses the bow,” Rania said, not minding the fact that the four of them were fangirling like crazy at the moment.

Yuying, Queenie, and Lulu looked at this and just smiled.

”Maybe we should get back to the mission we sent you on, Rania,” Queenie said, taking the overly happy Rania’s mind back to business.

”Oh, that. Using the Universe Coins Lady Yuying gave me, I managed to secure four C-Class and a B-Class weapon. Aside from that, I also managed to secure fifteen Empyrean Beast Cores of the flame type and three of the ice type.”

Queenie sighed, knowing that even with this preparation, they wouldn’t have known the enemy had an A-Class weapon at their disposal if not for the scout.

In a way, thanks to the scouts, they are now aware of the danger coming...

Rania, who saw Queenie’s sigh, also sighed and made sure to clarify some things. ”Since this world has just awakened, it can be considered a Tier 3 world. This means no immortals or higher can come here.

It also means no immortal or higher can send aid with the intent of helping. The warriors my mom sent were all banished from the Flying Valkyries, so technically, they have no home now.

However, even with that, she couldn’t fool the heavens, so only Cellete, Senna, and Alora made it through. The heavens are very strict on that rule.”

”You don’t have to explain yourself, Rania. This is a forbidden world, so naturally, the heavens have their full attention on any and all things concerning this planet.

However, now that we have these weapons, we can start making preparations,” Queenie said with a smile, making sure Rania understood she wasn’t mad or anything.

After making sure all doubts were cleared, Yuying took the weapons and left. She and Princess Eshira would handle it.

”Lulu, take our guests around. I am sure they will like that.” Lulu nodded to Queenie’s words and left with Rania and her three friends.

She also wanted to learn more about Caelmir since the last time she had little time to talk to Rania.

Once they were gone, Queenie entered deeper into the house and soon entered a room where Klaus’s handsome body was sleeping.

Pickle Berry was inside the room, sleeping beside Klaus. She refused to leave, so everyone just ignored her whenever they came to check up on Klaus.

Queenie sat on the bed and rested her right hand on Klaus’s chest.

”So, Rania returned again, and this time, she came with three friends sent by Queen Leah to aid us. It seems she is doing all she can to help us, which is nice.

Rania also brought the weapons we ordered, and now, Yuying and Eshira are working on them. Soon, we will be going into battle again.

But worry not, we will win and make sure by the time you wake up, Earth becomes more powerful than it was a year ago.”

Although Klaus couldn’t hear her, she always came to update him on her day-to-day as a way of coping with missing him.
