The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1545: Blood Demon Sword Puppeteer

Since Atomic said that breaking through would bring no tribulation, Klaus knew there was no need to prepare for anything.

Most people took years preparing for their tribulations.

It was considered the most difficult part of the breakthrough process. Facing the heavens and proving to them that you were capable of becoming a god or a Supreme being was something many took seriously.

So, since that wouldn’t be happening here, Klaus summoned Atomic and Icon to handle the process.

Klaus discovered that after Icon’s breakthrough, she had become one with Star Qi and, as such, could do more than just reveal changes in Klaus.

She could now manipulate Star Qi to create things.

Of course, what she could create was limited to only a few things. She could create formations, arrays, and even energy cores for weapons.

Klaus was thrilled to find out that if he were to create one core for a weapon, the next one and subsiquent once could be created by Icon with a mere wave of her hand.

Even better, Klaus only needed to create one weapon, and with enough materials, Icon could mass-produce it. The most mind-blowing ability was her power to detect and fix flaws in just about anything.

No matter how hidden the flaw was, she would find it and, using Star Qi, fix it. It was as though Atomic had completely unleashed Icon’s core nature and set her upon the world to do her work: aid Klaus in growing beyond comprehension.

The moment Atomic and Icon appeared, Hunter was already seated on the platform. Klaus sat across from him.

”Okay, Dad, you are going to feel some tingling sensations. Don’t fight it,” Klaus said, and Hunter nodded.

’You two can start. I will monitor the situation from here.’

Icon and Atomic began. Icon started by scanning Hunter’s body, mind, soul, and every aspect of him, especially his bloodline and class.

Immediately, she detected 348 flaws and got to work fixing them while Atomic worked on rewriting Hunter’s core structure by incorporating the best aspects of his bloodline.

Klaus planned to make Hunter an Asura Variant, but unless his grandpa and grandma became one first, the focus now was on making him a better Supreme.

While they worked tirelessly, Klaus also used the time to examine the changes that had happened to him.

His incarnation as Rhazor, the Criminal, had reached the rank of an Immortal Monarch. This came as a shock to him, but it was also not unexpected. He had seen what Atomic did to his wives and parents.

But becoming only one rank away from reaching the Immortal Lord stage was still shocking to him, not when he was supposed to be incapable of doing that.

Atomic explained that after his energy merged with Klaus, many changes had occurred within him, the greatest of which was the Heaven-Defying Body Art.

He had only cultivated the first two forms, which, as far as he knew, should have only allowed him to reach the Immortal King stage. However, now, he had reached the Immortal Monarch stage in one body.

Immortal Emperor, in his incarnation as Kaden, who was training on the second level of the Inheritance Tower, and his incarnation as Efad, who was currently nearing the second completion stage of the Void Vortex Quest.

Even his current body as Orion, the Paragon body, had become an Immortal King.

The only one still at the rank of a True Immortal was his main body, who was still in the academy, waiting for his assessment for the Engineering College in a week’s time.

However, Klaus wasn’t disturbed. After all of this was over, he would cultivate the third form of the Heavens Defying Body Art, which Icon estimated would allow him to push into the Demigod stage.

Things would be a bit slow for his main body. However, Klaus knew that with his other bodies out there, there was no telling what he would achieve.

The only problem now was whether or not he would gain the opportunity to rise through the ranks within the Heavens Court.

The three futures Destiny had shown him told Klaus he had to be careful; otherwise, things wouldn’t end well for him or anyone else.

He decided to start planning ahead of time.

In no time, two hours had passed, and while Klaus was lost in thought, Hunter reached the rank of a Universal God and was nearing the Supreme stage.

Hunter was in shock, and so was everyone watching.

There was no explanation for what was happening. However, as they continued to watch, everyone could tell that if Hunter were to rank up normally, his aura would pale in comparison to what was now oozing from his body.

While this was happening, all over the Puppet Workshop, the puppets under his command had also started breaking through their limits, rising through the ranks alongside their master.

An hour and a half after he became a Universal God, the aura of a Supreme burst from his body, filling the Puppet Workshop with bloodthirstiness.

The air grew tense as he rose through the Supreme ranks from Early Supreme to Supreme Lord in just two hours. In the end, after seven hours of work, Hunter stood at the Peak of the Supreme stage, brimming with immense power.

If he were to rise to the Peak Supreme stage naturally, he would have been three hundred times weaker.

What Icon and Atomic did was fix all his flaws and rebuild a system that made proper use of his bloodline and all other aspects. Basically, Hunter was now a much better version of himself.

What shocked him even more was the fact that after Icon gave him the Star Monarch Bloodline, he awakened a unique class called [Blood Demon Sword Puppeteer].

This class, from what Klaus had observed, allowed him to make better use of his [Obsidian Demon String Puppeteer] main class when it came to using sword puppets in battle.

It was the kind of class that would make him even more dangerous with his sword.

”This feeling...” Hunter examined his body for a few minutes before bursting into a loud laugh and tightly hugging Klaus.

”Thanks, Son. I feel like I can face those Heavens Executioners and slaughter them where they stand,” Hunter bragged, but Klaus knew he indeed possessed the power to hunt them down.

”Good to hear you are okay with your changes, Dad. After all, we will soon be hunting the Heavens Executioners down, you and I. So don’t be too happy just yet.”

Hunter laughed. ”Even better. I will be ready to annihilate them once and for all.”

Knowing the kind of monster he had become, Klaus wanted to give his father a chance to grow even stronger.

After all, now, whoever he killed, he could transform them into a sword puppet, and the best part was that the transformed sword puppets would retain the power of the beings they were transformed from.

The sheer monstrous nature of that ability made Klaus finally realize the kind of monster Hunter had become.

This even made him wonder what kind of monster Asmodeus would become once he became a god or perhaps even a Supreme.

’Atomic came at the right time. While I would still have powerful subordinates, his arrival would allow me to finally create the army that this universe so desperately needs.’

Klaus laughed and turned to his mother. ”Mom, it is your turn.”
