The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1140: The awakening (44)

It has a unique death aspect which allowed Klaus to activate the Domain of Death. However, to do that, he had to sacrifice someone…

Naturally, he knew there was no way the seven Heaven Executioners would come at him at once, so he created a trap that he knew they would fall for.

The scroll was a bloodline curse, one that affected all those having even a sliver of the bloodlines of the seven of them.

Klaus knew they would want to kill him before he activated it. So he waited, and just when the brute saw victory before him, Klaus burned 100,000 years of his life force and channeled all his energy into the Law of Gravity.

With that, even a mortal could have caught the axe.

So he went for the kill, and before any of the six remaining could stop him, he activated the trump card he would be depending on if he wanted to have a narrow chance of winning.

Everyone caught within the domain can only rely on the current health because the moment it runs out, death is the next option.

“Surround him!” the masked figure said, throwing a dagger at Klaus. On another side, the elf unleashed an arrow aiming for Klaus’s heart.

Now that one was caught off guard, the remaining six would be extra cautious, which to Klaus would be dangerous. However, he wasn’t the same Klaus who took over an hour to kill a Level 3 Nirvana Stage warrior.

He had just killed a Level 9 Nirvana Stage warrior in under five seconds, so that showed he too was going to be a danger to them.

The dagger and the arrow sliced through the air with deadly force, cutting the void open as they approached Klaus.

With a calm expression, Klaus turned his wrist slightly. The Domain of Death pulsed outward, and the very air around him thickened with death energy.

Klaus is the heir of death so he can use Death Qi at will, though not recommended. Frequent use can destroy his soul.

The arrow slowed midair, its golden light dimming as it neared the death qi Klaus has raised.

The dagger, however, tore through the darkness, unaffected by the suppression field.

’So she is the dangerous one huh…’

Klaus tilted his head slightly, letting the dagger brush past his cheek, drawing a faint line of blood. The drop fell but never hit the ground—it evaporated into black mist.

“Asura Crazy sword strike” Klaus raised his sword and a red skull appeared in the air causing the air around it to warp.

It dissolve into his sword and then with a powerful slash, he unleashed a wide sword arc aiming it at the masked figured.

The masked figure lifted her left hand, summoning a barrier of silver light that shimmered like liquid metal.

Klaus’s sword arc collided against it with a deafening BOOM!

The shockwave tore through the skies, creating cracks in the void showing just how dangerous the two attacks were.

Klaus channeled so much energy into the attack so despite lifting a rather strong defense, meeting such an attack wasnt a walk in the park.

The barrier held for three seconds before shattering like glass.

The masked figure was thrown backward.

However, she stabilized herself midair, her cloak fluttering like a black flame.

Her movements were silent but deadly.

Klaus so far is feeling pressured by her and the Elf.

Taking one of them out will be the next best thing to happen to him.

Klaus dodged to his left, feeling the sharp edge of a sword pass his ear. However, before he could celebrate, a second sword from the supreme human came for his other cheek aiming to slice his mouth apart.

’Fuck…this bitch want to turn me into the joker’

Sparks flew from his cheek as the blade grazed him. Thanks to his living armor able to change it form, he manage to form a half helmet which covered his neck, up his cheek and formed a crown around his head.

Kkaus didn’t have time to breathe before an arrow from the elf came tearing through the void, aiming for his chest.

He leaped back just in time for the arrow to sliced through where his heart had been a heartbeat earlier.

’Facing Six Nirvana stage warriors is no joke. But atleast I have them contained.’

Before Klaus could focus, the masked figure’s dagger whistled through the air, followed immediately by two more arrows and a vicious claw strike from the demi-dragon, whose arm had already turned into a scaled weapon of destruction.

’Keep your cool Klaus, the danger is still hanging over your head’ Klaus said to himself, stealing a glance at the tribulation cloud.

Klaus twisted his body, blocking one dagger with his sword and deflecting an arrow with his elbow guard, but the claw slash from the demi-dragon caught him in the ribs, sending him flying through the air.

He crashed into the earth, creating a massive crater.

COUGH

He cough blood, but he was on the move the next second. He can’t give them a chance to attack, especaially not when the Ice demon and the demi-lion had yet to make a move.

***

All over, battles that shouldn’t have happened are raging on like crazy.

Klaus’s side is already on the losing side; however, thanks to Asmodeus, Anna, and Lucy taking away many powerful opponents, the pressure isn’t too much on them.

Jane had already transported the wounded soldiers and those weak enough to an undersea military base the Bast race built many years ago.

Since the battle had now turned chaotic, the Sylvan healers aren’t having much time to heal them.

So to make sure those fighting are in good shape, the wounded are being transported there where human healers are doing their best to save their lives.

Meanwhile, deep inside the shadows, one of the biggest battles is raging on there…

Nia, Luna, Nuna, and Rita are locked in a fierce battle with 2 Monarch and 5 Death stage assassins. A battle that shouldn’t have happened is now taking place there, and the most devastating part about it was that, these seven people aren’t angels, Neburians, or Nethrans.

Nobody knew where they came from, but thankfully Nia and her sisters were ready for them.

If Klaus hadn’t deployed them there, who knows what would have happened.

[Doom Prison Number 1023 – Monarch Wing]

Several million light years away from Earth, inside a prison that is built to house the most vile and twisted criminals in the universe, a man with his face covered in a mask stood, staring at some of the most vile criminals the universe has ever seen.

This is the Monarch wing of the prison where only Monarch-stage warriors are imprisoned. At the moment, over 3,000 Monarch-stage warriors stood, facing this masked fellow.

“Any moment from now, a rift will open and all 3,450 of you should enter. Your mission is to ensure all life on a certain planet that has been blacklisted is eradicated.

The tracking chips inside your heads will track the number of kills you make. Know that for every kill, 100 years will be taken off your sentence.

So do well to kill to your heart’s content, because, trust me, there is more to kill.”

All inmates cheered, evil expressions shining on their faces.

Somewhere deep in the cosmos, a certain monkey watches this and smirks…

“Since it had come to this, then why don’t I also make my move?” He giggled, a mischievous smile painting his monkey face.

He snapped his finger and a certain golden key started vibrating.
