The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 962: Earth vs The Sea (3)

It had already been twenty minutes into the battle, but Klaus hadn’t made any move himself; instead, he had merely been using his clone to handle the fight.

However, a few seconds after the 20-minute mark, Klaus vanished from the ship and appeared on the battlefield, materializing right in front of Nebula.

He grabbed her bow and yanked it from her grip before using the back of his hand to slap the mask off her face.

Her head turned to the side, but when it finally turned and faced Klaus, a shocked look appeared on his face.

“Dahlia.”

Instinctively, Klaus mentioned the first name that came to mind. The face looking at him now is a complete copy of Dahlia, his fifth wife during his life as Magnus.

Nebula froze in place, unsure of what had just happened.

She was doing her best, going as far as killing hundreds of Klauses who weren’t any weaker than a Peak Chaos stage warrior.

However, out of nowhere, Klaus appeared, took her bow, which for some reason she wasn’t able to summon back from him.

It was like the moment the bow entered Klaus’s hand, it became his, and as such, she couldn’t unsummon it back to her soul sea or summon it straight from Klaus’s grip.

Aside from that, she also heard a name she had never heard before; however, for some reason, when she heard the name, her body froze in place, and staring Klaus straight in the face even made her start to forget who she was.

Klaus, on the other hand, turned away from her and looked at the bow in his grip for a few seconds before putting it away.

“You are done for the day.”

With a wave of his hand, he sent Nebula into the Demon Bead, appearing atop the mountain where the Monarch of Despair was currently cultivating.

“If you make any sudden moves, they will kill you, so be a good girl and relax there. After the battle is over, I will let you out.” Klaus’s voice entered her head, forcing her to turn and look at the figure sitting in a lotus posture.

When she sensed the Peak Domain stage cultivation of the Monarch of Despair, she went pale and took a couple of steps back, jumping down from the peak even.

Her instincts told her to run away, and she did. She moved far back, praying Klaus would come get her as early as possible.

The Monarch of Despair smiled when he saw this.

Although he was cultivating, as someone who had reached the domain stage, his innate domain had already reached a remarkably powerful level.

Therefore, despite being deeply immersed in his cultivation, he saw everything, and the sight of the lady running out of fear was something he enjoyed. After all, he is the Monarch of Despair.

Back on the battlefield, Klaus looked deep into the fight and smiled.

His side was winning, and now that Nebula had been taken off the board, he could sense the main monster army approaching.

“It is time,” he waved his hand, and the five Overlords of the sea appeared.

“This is your domain; use it to end the battle in the next two hours.”

They nodded and dove into battle.

Klaus examined how his friends were doing, but upon seeing them kick ass, he smiled and turned to the Black Panther.

“How are we doing, Prince Challa?” Klaus asked with a smile.

Prince Challa turned and looked at him before turning back to his opponent. “He is still lacking, but since he is being a good sport, I guess I will play around with him for a bit.”

Klaus laughed. “In that case, have fun. I will be off to go handle the old King and the last remaining members of his army.”

“See you later. And, well, don’t die.”

“Not planning on it, Mr. Panther.”

Klaus used the Void Step to move, and soon, he was deep into the battle.

He ignored all the chaos around him and moved again, appearing beside his uncles and Abyss, who were the closest to the gateway leading to the Abyssal Trench.

With one last step, he entered the gateway and appeared in a waterless world, one where the space seemed like a different world altogether.

Klaus, however, didn’t have the time to admire the place since the moment he appeared there, he was greeted by a lineup of thousands of Chaos stage monsters, each a powerhouse on its own.

Standing at the back was King Kordax, looking more terrifying than any of the monsters in the space.

Skroll also appeared from the shadows and locked gazes with Klaus.

“Looks like you were expecting me.”

“You are Klaus Hanson,” King Kordax said instead of answering the question.

“It appears you also know me. And yes, I am Klaus Hanson.”

King Kordax turned and looked at Skroll. “Do it.”

Skroll nodded and formed a hand seal. Immediately, the portal leading back to the surface world was closed, locking everyone in.

“Since you are here, you won’t be going back again. I know Nebula failed to kill you, not that I was expecting anything from her. But you made one mistake, and that was coming here.”

Skroll moved forward and formed another seal, creating a formation in the air. Suddenly, Klaus was encased in a rather powerful formation connected to the life force of the thousands of Chaos stage monsters.

“Oh, you guys really prepared well,” Klaus smiled and then turned to his left, meeting the gaze of the same man he had sensed before the start of the battle.

There were no words spoken, but he received the confirmation he needed, so he turned back to Skroll.

“Is this formation meant to kill me?” Klaus asked.

“No, but it will hold you long enough for the true massacre to happen on the surface.”

Klaus raised his brow.

“You think this can hold me, really?”

“I know it can’t hold you because, unlike everyone here, I know more about you, and that was why I made this formation.

It has cut off your teleportation ability, so getting back to save the civilians will be hard.” Skroll smiled evilly.

“Your mother is at Moonville, right? I suppose the massacre will start there, then it will spread to Ross City, Arcadian City, Hiroshi City, and the rest.

When it is done, it will move to the other parts, and trust me, by the time you manage to get back, the deed will already be done.”

Moments like this, Klaus was supposed to panic and think of ways to break the formation and escape. However, instead of doing that, Klaus stepped gently on the ground, and a diamond throne appeared.

He sat down and took out a soft drink.

“I am hungry. Is anyone else hungry?” Klaus said, offering the drink to Skroll and King Kordax with a mocking smile on his face.

“I guess nobody wants to drink. That said, this is the time for you to get back to the surface world because if you really think Hunter Duncan and his group of nobodies have what it takes to carry out your elaborate plan to kill my mother and in-laws, then you have another thing coming.”

Skroll’s face turned pale when Klaus named Hunter as the person he was counting on. And indeed, he was counting on Hunter and his cohort, who sided with the darkness

“What, you really think I wouldn’t know it was you who hired the Dark Order to try to kill me and even went as far as sending the legacy families and Great Clans after me?

I have long planned for the day I would meet you, and now that we are face to face, I can kill you in the most agonizing way possible… You too, King Kordax.”
