The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse - Chapter 1155: Bittersweet Goodbye
Chapter 1155: Bittersweet Goodbye
The sky is completely dark, lightning and thunder raging deep in its dark depths.
Every last warrior felt their skin crawling, fear gripping them tightly.
They won, but the situation doesn’t seem calm like the world expects.
The dark clouds want their pound of flesh, and that flesh is the silver-haired angel holding Klaus’s body tightly.
“My Lady, I believe it is time to leave. Until this world reaches the level that can handle gods, your presence here will destroy it and everyone within,” Uncle Ziggy said, watching the sky start to tear.
Though small, if more tears start to appear, it would soon become so chaotic that even immortals would feel constipated if they found themselves in this world.
Klaus’s mom ignored him and kept holding her son.
She had been cursed to forget her own life and only get back her memories right when her son dies. Those two minutes meant for Klaus’s death were meant to be the moment her heart shatters.
However, thanks to Chaos, the two minutes were turned around.
It started when Chaos arrived on Earth. Klaus was meant to face the many warriors that appeared alone.
Of course, he has his ladies, friends, and millions of warriors on his side, but they aren’t at all ready to face the beings Chaos faced.
If Klaus had faced the Nirvana stage warriors Chaos did, his strength would have dropped further than it was when he faced the seven Peak Nirvana stage Heavens Executioners.
The second thing Chaos influenced was Klaus’s own strength. Thanks to his pill, Klaus unlocked a part of himself that allowed him to hold back the enemy without overexerting himself.
Because of this, he managed to buy a few seconds into the two-minute window the heavens marked as the designated 120 seconds during which Klaus would die.
The third action Chaos made that shifted the odds in Klaus’s favor was when he sealed the rift for an hour and summoned his own legion.
Because of him, the load that would have finally forced Klaus to use the sword or the throne was handled.
So when it was finally time for him to use it, he managed to survive the attack that would have completely crushed him.
Then, when it came down to the crossroads, when the heavens finally won, Chaos took action again and completely shattered the heavens’ plans.
This means that, after regaining her life, her strength, and her memories, she gets to see her son grow. However, because the curse has been broken, the karma involved is now finding an excuse to come down.
Obviously, in the next hour, when Earth becomes an awakened world, the heavens would descend. So she must leave in order not to bring calamity to the first forbidden world in the entire universe.
If this world were to make her the guardian, she would become a god, and that cannot be allowed to happen, not when the heavens are slowly losing their hold on planet Earth.
Lily walked to her mother-in-law and held her hand. “Mother, don’t worry. Chaos said he is out of harm’s way, so he will be fine.
However, what he will not be able to handle is waking up only to find out the heavens severely injure his mother or, worse, kill her.”
Lily clenched her hands tightly. “Klaus will find you, we will, so don’t worry. Soon, we will meet again, and this time we will be reunited in a happy-ever-after reunion… I promise.”
The rest of Klaus’s wives, still conscious, nodded. Now that their man is out of harm’s way, their worry turns to his mother.
They are shocked that their mother-in-law is actually a demigod. None of them saw that coming. However, five of them who knew the heavens wouldn’t pass up a chance to kill her are more worried than any of them.
They knew how important she was to Klaus, so saving her life next was all they could do. If she leaves, the heavens would have no reason to target her directly.
“We will protect him. We will make sure he is happy, and when he finally gets to meet you, we will be by his side, making sure no harm comes to you or him ever again,” Lucy said, holding Anna’s weak body in her arms.
After a few minutes of making deep-hearted promises, Klaus’s mom finally sighed and handed Klaus over to his wives.
She stood up, and at once, the expression on her face changed.
She turned from a worried mother to a determined warrior, one who is ready to fight for what she believes in…
“I will be leaving my son in your care. I know you all love and care for him, so I have no doubt you will make him happy.
If I stay here long enough, my presence will destroy everything he fought hard for. So I have no choice but to leave. However, tell him I will wait for him in the vast universe out there.
Tell him I will create a world out there where he will be welcome regardless of who he is. Tell him he is my son, and I would forever love him.”
A jade box appeared in her palm, and she handed it over to Lily. “Give this to him when he wakes up. Tell him that his father and I will wait for him, that we love him and would forever be proud we get to be his parents.”
A tear fell from her eyes, then it was soon replaced by a small smile. “Tell him I should have my grandkids running around when we meet again. And please, make sure this time, they should be real humans, not flame spirits.”
The ladies blushed, and the four flame children standing beside Klaus’s sleeping body gave her the ’grandma, you’ve hurt our feelings’ look.
However, the angel beauty smiled when she saw their expressions.
She turned and looked at the hundreds of thousands of warriors standing. “Thank you all for fighting for my son. Although he isn’t the person to have walking among you, none of you turned your back on him when he needed help.
Because of this, I will be eternally grateful to you all, and one day, I will repay you all.” She gave a deep bow before turning to Asmodeus.
“Protect my son… No matter what, do everything in your power to protect him.”
Asmodeus nodded. He is the type of person who will do anything, no matter how unethical, to save his master.
After making sure she covered everything, she turned to the five uncles. “Let’s go.”
Brownish-feathered wings appeared on their backs.
However, before leaving, Lily asked one important question. “Mother, what is your name?”
Lily asked a question that even Klaus didn’t have an answer for. In fact, even the lady herself had no idea what she was called up until a few hours ago.
So, being asked this harmless question, she turned and gave the ladies a smile, putting on a brave face.
“My name is Elysia…”
After saying that, she flapped her wings and vanished from sight. In an instant, they traveled several thousand miles away from Earth.
Back on Earth, the dark sky cleared. The one they were targeting left, so the heavens had no reason to target Earth ever again.
It was only then that cheers rang out everywhere.
They won, and with that victory, the awakening finally came to an end.
