Chapter 1045: The Doctor
Klaus has thought long and hard about it, but in the end, he chose to tell his mother some part of him that he believes she must know.
He had been worried about what the heavens would do to the point that instead of living freely, he was constantly thinking of everything and anything.
It wasn’t until after his Chaos stage Tribulation that Klaus started to see what the heavens had been doing all this time.
It turns out they have been using his fear of what will happen to others if they know his secret to harm them, and due to that, no matter what, he always held back.
However, after seeing what their endgame was all this time, Klaus chose to take matters into his own hands and damn the heavens.
“A paragon is someone who isn’t afraid of the heavens. In fact, a paragon is someone outside of the rules of the heavens. This means I am the enemy of the heavens, and as far as I know, the heavens hate me.” Klaus smiled weakly, taking a sip of his tea.
His mom studied his expression and also his smile, “I suppose that has something to do with you going to the Moon years back.”
“Indeed,” Klaus nodded, recalling when Ohema took him to the Moon for the first time, “Although I can’t say much, which is for your own good, but back then I found out the heavens were after Queenie because of me, so I had to step in.”
“I see. In any case, I don’t care if the heavens hate or love you. You are my baby, and I will always love you,” Klaus’ mom smiled, feeling very happy that her son had opened up to her.
She could sense the hesitation in his voice, which to her only meant what Klaus had just told her was something he wouldn’t easily disclose. She also knew there would be a price to pay for that. But seeing him open up made her feel good inside.
“So I guess this awakening has something to do with the heavens, too. I mean, you said we will be fighting against them, but now knowing you and the heavens want to gut each other, I suppose they have their hands in this.”
Klaus laughed, hearing how she framed his stance against the heavens. “Really, Mom, you couldn’t find a better word than gut?”
“What?” Klaus’ mom looked at him with a mischievous smile, “Aren’t you two trying to gut each other?”
“I guess you are right, and yes, this awakening has something to do with my stance against the heavens. They have been preparing for years, which I believe they plan to end my existence this time around, even if they have to kill billions in the process.”
“I see. Then it is a good thing you have powerful friends and lovers to help you fight them.”
“That is true. I really am lucky.”
If Magnus had this much support like Klaus now did back in the day, his wives and mom wouldn’t have sacrificed themselves to help him.
He is now protected from all forms of danger simply because he has capable friends who will come to his aid in times of need.
“Too bad I can’t fight. I would have helped you handle these hateful heavens. How dare they lay their filthy hands on my son?”
Klaus smiled weakly, seeing the annoyed expression that appeared on his mom’s face. Although knowing she is powerless against the heavens, she also wouldn’t just give up and sit there. At least saying her frustration out loud would show her son she had his back.
“You are too beautiful to waste your energy on them, Mom. Just eat your food, and then we can roam around until we are tired.”
“Ok”
Klaus smiled.
He felt a weight lifted off his shoulder. ’Telling her is the right thing to do. She saved me nine good times; if anything, she deserves to know this much about me. As for the Karma involved, the heavens can add it to my tab.’
They continue to eat their breakfast to their fill. Klaus could already see that his mom was now more than ready to spend time with him.
Knowing her son was hated by the heavens made her even more overprotective, so she wanted to spend as much time as she could with him.
The two decided to each wear hidden cameras to record each other’s POV. This way, one day, even if the distance between them was millions of light-years away, they would always have something to remember each other by.

[Planet Kai – The Doctor]
Meanwhile, out in the universe, for reasons unknown, the black mission that was posted at the Humming Noise Mercenary Guild had reached hundreds of the lowest-level worlds.
Most of these worlds had the strongest warrior at the Life stage, with some even having a Death stage powerhouse.
However, inasmuch as one would think just how words of this mission had reached them, the most chilling thing was the kind of people taking an interest in the mission.
Planet Kai awakened 78 years ago. The awakening battle was the greatest threat this world had ever faced, and had it not been for some brave warriors who rose to the occasion, their planet would have been ravaged.
One of the key people who played a part in winning the battle was a man known by all as the Doctor.
He was no Doctor Frankenstein, but his legendary feat gave him a name that nobody could take from him.
Unlike most warriors who wielded powerful weapons and legendary skills in combat, the Doctor had his twisted but brilliant brain to aid him.
They said he was once a legendary researcher who, long before the apocalypse reached his world, had helped the government genetically engineer supersoldiers.
However, when the apocalypse descended and he awakened his innate talent, which allowed him to think several times faster and more powerfully, he saw beyond supersoldiers.
He saw a world filled with human-like living robots, the kind that adapt and grow in combat. They said when the awakening came, and his people were on the verge of giving up, he brought three living robotic humans to the battlefield, and the tide changed instantly.
Years after the awakening, he was selected as the leader of his entire race of Metal Humans. They were like humans but with skin like metal and eyes like rubies.
At the moment, he had just received word of a black mission posted by one of the powerful mercenary guilds in the planetary system his world was in.
“A black mission to a planet that isn’t in any planetary alliance.” The man held a glass screen showing the mission and the location of the mission.
“I have no doubt this has something to do with world awakening.” He smiled weakly and tapped a button on his watch. A second later, a projection of a young lady clad in red armor appeared.
“Loff, take 15 Planet Hunters with you and go to the planet in the coordinates I sent you. Assess the world, and if it is ripe for picking, don’t hesitate to ask for reinforcement.
However, if it is now awakening, join them and conquer both worlds.”
“I will get it done, Doctor.”
“I know you will, Loff. After all, you are incapable of failure.”
