The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1691: Elemental Spirits

Seven Ice, two Lightning, and three Water Elementals stood before Kaden, each wearing a warm smile. More importantly, they all looked to be around sixteen years old, which, to Kaden, made them children.

Of course, his four Primordial Flame Spirits’ first evolution had given them the humanoid bodies of seven-year-olds, so these ones were much older. But perhaps since his four Flame Spirits were now adults, he had expected the rest to come out as such.

Too bad they didn’t. Regardless, they were now Absolute-grade Forbidden Elements, each with unique powers and abilities.

“You guys seem extra happy,” Kaden said, looking back at the children, whom he was having a hard time asking to fight the horrors of the Three Elemental Sea.

Perhaps in their beast forms, he wouldn’t have hesitated. But now that he had seen them in their humanoid forms, asking them to fight powerful beasts felt a bit uncomfortable.

The Elemental Spirits didn’t see it that way…

“Big Brother, we are so happy to finally be able to talk to you too.” The Immortal Forbidden Ice, who had now taken on the appearance of a young lady in her early teens with a long-haired, spoke, her beautiful dimples accentuating her beauty.

Kaden had no plans on giving them complex names, so, taking inspiration from their beast forms, he decided to call the Immortal Forbidden Ice Unicorn.

Well, the name had already been chosen by them, since that was how his Primordial Flame Spirits referred to them whenever they talked about their siblings.

They referred to each other that way themselves, so why break the dynamic?

Now, Unicorn could talk, and from the look on her face, it was plain she had no plans on backing out of the fight. Her power came in the form of healing, but just as she could give life essence, she could also take it.

She mostly moved hand in hand with the Devouring Forbidden Ice, whom he named Kraken. The Devouring Forbidden Ice devours energy and gives it to the Immortal Forbidden Ice, who converts it into life essence to heal Kaden, his incarnations, and his other elements.

The others nodded at Unicorn’s statement, which made Kaden nod as well. He was also happy that he could finally talk to them.

Looking at their appearances, the Devouring Forbidden Ice, whom he now called Kraken, had become a handsome young man with short dark-gold hair. He had dark eyes and spoiled posture, perhaps because of the way he dressed.

He was clad in an open shirt, his firm abs on full display despite being no older than sixteen.

The Abyssal Forbidden Ice, whom Kaden had expected to have a sinister appearance, surprisingly stood to the side with a calm, innocent expression, his long dark-red hair falling over his shoulders. He wore a cloak, and if one didn’t know better, one would think he was an introvert.

However, Kaden could clearly see it. The bastard was sinister with the look of an angel. His name, Leviathan, alone showed he was a menace. The Abyssal Forbidden Ice itself posed a danger to the other elements because of its devastating power.

Aside from him, the Soul Eater Forbidden Ice, whom he had named Wolf, stood with the posture of someone who sought to devour souls. He had purple hair and the build of a warrior scholar. He even wore a pair of eyeglasses, with a gentle smile tugging at the corner of his lips.

Beside him, the Annihilation Forbidden Ice stood with a much more imposing physique. Kaden named him Frost simply because, in his beast form, he was a massive black Frost Colossus capable of destroying battlefields with a mere stomp of his feet.

Now, he stood much taller than his siblings, with dark hair falling down his back.

The Hypnotic Forbidden Ice also stood happily with green hair and green eyes. She looked rather beautiful, which, considering her nature as the Hypnotic Forbidden Ice, made perfect sense.

Her power revolved around illusions, so having her appear that radiant made sense. Kaden named her Snowy.

Last among the Forbidden Ice Elements was the Chaotic Forbidden Ice, which he had named Tiger. He had long, disheveled red hair and a look that showed he and Void or Nirvana would get along just fine. His nature was Chaos, and his appearance spoke volumes about that nature.

Kaden was impressed with all of them, but he also knew they weren’t Primordial Elemental Spirits yet, so he didn’t expect them to be as impressive as his Primordial Flame Spirits.

Turning away from them, his gaze landed on his two Forbidden Lightning Elements.

They both came out as young ladies with beautiful appearances.

The Golden Soul Forbidden Lightning, whom he named Thunder, had golden hair, beautiful golden eyes, and angelic features, such as lightning wings and an ethereal beauty.

The Voidstorm Forbidden Lightning emerged with dark hair and blue eyes. She was also a beauty, and Kaden named her Hydra since she was a Storm Hydra in her beast form.

Then came the Forbidden Water Elements.

The Tidal Sovereign Forbidden Water Element was now a muscular young man with deep-blue hair and matching eyes. Maybe it was because he was a dragon in his beast form, but he had scales covering parts of his arms and neck.

Regardless, he had a formidable appearance and, most importantly, seemed much more powerful than his siblings at the same rank. Kaden considered naming him Dragon, but that would conflict with too many names, so he went with Blue.

As for the Abyss Depth Forbidden Water, he stood with a slender build, a beautiful set of green hair, and an appearance that made him seem both like a menace and an easygoing fellow.

Kaden gave him the name Turtle because, no matter how he looked at it, wielding a turtle-shaped shield as a weapon would make people call him Turtle whether he liked it or not.

Embracing the name now would surely go a long way.

Lastly, a beauty with silver hair and jade-like silver eyes stood smiling back at Kaden. She was the Frozen Tranquil Forbidden Water Element, whom Kaden named Swan. She was gorgeous and powerful at the same time.

Looking at all twelve Absolute-grade Forbidden Elements before him, Kaden couldn’t help but smile. He then asked the question he already knew the answer to…

“I suppose you guys had no plans on sitting this one out, huh?”

They shook their heads, and Tiger, the Chaotic Forbidden Ice, said,

“We are all strong enough to fight Supremes, so if two or three of us pair up, we can even handle a Celestial. So no, we will fight beside you just like Void and the others do.”

“Tiger is right. We are not that weak at all. If you don’t trust us, we can spar with you to prove ourselves,” Blue, the Tidal Sovereign Forbidden Water, also said, but Kaden shook his head.

“That won’t be necessary. I trust you guys enough to know you can handle the danger. But just to be on the safe side, you will fight in four groups led by your big sisters and brothers.”

Kaden pointed at Nirvana and the other Flame Elements.

Since there were twelve of them, they divided themselves into groups of three, forming four teams. This way, each of the four Primordial Flame Spirits would be able to watch over their group.
