The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1173: Goodbyes



Chapter 1173: Goodbyes

“You two do know the only reason why you could touch me right now is because of Maud, right? If I tell her to make me intangible, I will become nothing but a ghost to you.”

Klaus laughed, making sure his parents understood that pinching him was a privilege he could take away.

As expected, they smiled and started brushing the parts of his skin they’d pinched. Klaus just smirked, but was happy for that.

“Have you already woken up in your real body?” Klaus’ mom asked, knowing Klaus was in a comatose state when she last saw him a year and a half ago.

“Still sleeping, Mom. My body is still not ready to accommodate my soul, so I will be out for a while.”

“I see. I just hope nothing bad happens while you are asleep. Your wives need you.”

Klaus flashed his mom a reassuring smile. “Trust me, Mom, they will be more than fine without me. They have Queenie, so they will be fine.”

Klaus’s mom nodded, knowing the redhead’s beauty was indeed enough to keep everyone safe. She is, after all, an Asura.

To many, the battle during the awakening was something they wouldn’t want to be part of again for the rest of their lives. It was that traumatizing.

However, to Queenie, if another one, twice or even thrice as hard could come, she would be extremely happy. The battle was devastating, and so she had grown much stronger since then.

Because of this, Klaus is not worried.

Also, knowing Earth is a newly awakened world and that immortals cannot go there made him extremely calm because he knew his wives, friends, and people would be more than fine.

“So what will you be doing while your body heals?” Uncle Mark asked.

“Right now, thanks to Maud, I can only stay in the Realm of Death and explore there. I have nothing else to do, so I might as well explore the realm that will one day become my own.”

The uncles nodded, and Hunter said, “I still can’t believe you are the heir of death. If the Heavenly Court is made aware, they will triple their efforts to kill you.”

Klaus smiled. “They can go cry to their mommies. The day all 12 Agents of Death are found is the day they will lose all chances of ever having the means to kill me.”

“Just make sure to make me unkillable when you become the King of Death,” Elysia said, and Klaus nodded with a smile.

“Fear not, Mom, I will one day become someone this universe will have no choice but to obey.”

None of them doubted him. Even just at the Chaos Stage, he is already this heaven-defying—how much stronger would he become after reaching the Celestial Stage?

“Looks like my time is up.” Klaus turned to Maud, and the veiled lady nodded.

His mom looked sad, but Klaus knew she would be fine.

“Be careful out there, Klaus. Once you appear in the universe, join the Dark Space Virtual World and come find us. Although we can’t meet in person, spending time in the Virtual Dark Space is something we can do,” Klaus’s mom said, and the brat nodded.

He was already aware of the Virtual Dark Space, as he had used it during his 9th incarnation. It is like Oracle, but much more advanced.

Basically, it is a universe on its own where people can meet and do all sorts of things. Klaus had no idea which genius had created something so advanced, but he was happy to have used it and would be using it again.

And, as his mom said, they can meet there, provided Klaus finds them or has their Virtual ID.

“Take care of yourselves, everyone. The universe is vast, and so there is no telling where danger is hiding. So be careful in your travels.”

“We will, Klaus. Also, take care of your wives and friends. They are your strength, just as you are their strength.” Hunter patted his son on the shoulder and gave him one last piece of advice.

“I know, Pops. I will take care of them and everyone, so you too should take care of Mom and the uncles. Once you get to the Beast Universe, Bast will make sure your stay there is comfortable.”

They nodded.

Klaus smiled and hugged his mom. “I will be fine, Mom, so don’t worry too much.”

“Okay.” She managed to hold back her tears and said, “I love you, Klaus.”

“I love you too, Mom.”

After breaking their hug, Klaus looked at his father and uncles, and a sigh escaped his lips. “Just these ones. Next time we meet and you want a hug, then be ready to do a sex change and become a woman. I only hug women.”

Klaus smiled and hugged his father, who, despite the hard exterior, was actually a big old softy on the inside.

After breaking the hug, Klaus gave his uncles a warm hug before returning to his mom’s side. The emotional angel hugged him again and started sobbing.

Klaus turned to his father, who shrugged and said nothing. The last thing he wanted was to break a mother-son bonding session.

When Klaus was gone, he knew he would have an earful, so he saved himself from the hassle.

After three minutes, Elysia recovered and let go of her son. Then Maud opened the portal since even she could feel the pull of the Realm of Death.

“Don’t worry, Lady Elysia, Lord Klaus will be okay. I will protect him,” Maud said. As someone who doesn’t like to talk a lot, saying this line was already enough to show she meant every word.

Klaus’ parents and uncles nodded.

“Until next time, everyone. Stay safe,” Klaus walked into the portal with Maud, and soon, he was gone.

As expected, Elysia broke down and started sobbing. Klaus’ uncles sighed, and Hunter started consoling her, which took thirty good minutes before the poor woman calmed down.

She was clearly pampered as a young child, so she cried very often.

After calming down, she looked at Hunter and asked in a shaky tone, “Is he going to be okay?”

Hunter smiled and answered in a confident and prideful tone, “He will be more than fine. So, for now, we should follow his arrangement, and soon, we will reunite with him again.”

She nodded.

Right now, she managed to say a proper goodbye to her son. It was something she had wanted to do a year and a half ago. However, since Klaus was comatose then, she never had the chance.

But now she did, and so she was happy.

However, new adventures lay ahead, and so to survive and one day reunite with her son, she would yet again become Elysia, the Death Angel Princess whose legend once shook the universe.

She was the mother of a paragon. This meant that whether she liked it or not, her life would be chaotic. So, to make sure she and her son survived, the least she could do was become much stronger.

“We must become much stronger, so strong that protecting Klaus shouldn’t be a problem,” Elysia said, and Hunter and Klaus’s uncles nodded.

“Once everything settles down, I will send a message to my old man. He should know he has a grandson now, so being an ass is not something he can continue to be.”

“He is just sad that the Asura race is no more. After all, they were one of his benefactors,” Elysia said with a smirk before she sat down to meditate and calm her nerves.
