The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse - Chapter 577

Chapter 577: World of Ice, Illusions and Poison, The Re-Awakening

Many years ago, Fruity entered the Tormented Tower of Bloodline Awakening, and it was then that the people of the Tormented world experienced the unknown awakening.

Back then, when Fruity awakened his bloodline and became the Overlord of Ice and Illusion, the entire Tormented world felt it.

It was chilling and bizarre.

In Klaus’s past life as Fruity, he was an ice mage with seven forbidden ice elements. However, after interacting with his past self this past month, he discovered that while Fruity was an ice mage, he was something else entirely.

He was an illusionist, and this was only made known when he awakened his bloodline… the bloodline of the Unknown.

It was a pivotal moment in history, and today, Klaus was making such history, too…

The seven forbidden ice elements had finally awakened, and along with their awakening was the awakening of the Primordial Blood of the Unknown (763.7).

The dark red Abyssal Ice element awakened and now began to exude from Klaus’s body as he hovered, still passing out in the air.

The white healing ice (Immortal) has also awakened and started healing his body. The Death cards healed the hole in his heart, but the Immortal healing ice is now healing everything else.

The smoky Soul Ice has also awakened, and Klaus’s soul is undergoing some qualitative changes that will soon turn his soul into a force with which to reckon.

The Black Annihilation Ice has also awakened. For this one, Klaus will have to first wake up to wield it since the Annihilation Ice and the Abyssal Ice are two of his most powerful attacking ice types.

But aside from these two, the Chaos Ice, with its crimson red hue, has also awakened, and while its name does call it Chaos Ice, it still has to find a battlefield where it can become chaotic.

Klaus, back when he was Fruity, had used the chaotic ice many times just to cause chaos on the battlefield.

In fact, he never thought of finding a way to add more skills to it; instead, he only focused on making it grow chaotic and bring chaos along with it.

Then, the Dark Gold Devouring Ice also awakened. That was the ice he would need if he wanted to always remain strong in battle.

With its incredibly powerful devouring power, Klaus only needs things with soul energy or any energy to devour.

This means the more he kills, the more he can devour. Of course, he only knew up to a certain stage of devouring, but he knew that aside from devouring just energies, he could devour other things, too.

He had yet to remember the other parts of his memories from his fourth incarnation.

The last is the awakening of the Green Hypnotic Ice, the ice that became the centerpiece of his Illusion class.

As expected, Klaus’s bloodline also awakened the moment it did, and his next set of memories came with it.

His body was surrounded by waves of ice that coated him in a fortress of some kind. The entire space around him had become frozen, with the sea below freezing far and wide.

As far as the eye could see, its entire surface was frozen.

Nothing in sight was left uncovered by ice. Klaus hovered in the ice fortress in the air for 3 hours until it shattered, revealing Klaus now with blue hair and two blue horns on his forehead.

He awakened a bloodline with a complicated backstory — the Primordial Blood of the Unknown (763.7).

Legend had it that the Lightning, Sea, and Death came into being when everything was created from the unknown. They became the pivotal aspects until they weren’t.

Death was banished, and the Sea picked its own dwelling below while the Lightning stayed in the heavens. That was what they called the [Parting].

However, while these three were separated, it was rumored that there was a fourth that was never recognized or perhaps wasn’t known…

So they called it [763.7], making it the primordial blood of the unknown. Well, that was the digit they knew in a strange kind of way…

Many theorize about the nature of this fourth existence, but they came up empty until, during the Era of Ice and Illusion, some of the theories were validated.

Many say the fourth existence is [Reality].

Yes… The illusion was made possible because there is reality.

Without reality, nothing can exist. It is the reality that visualizes everything in a way, so Klaus’s awakening to the Primordial Blood makes him someone with a strong attachment to reality.

But is that true? The answer to that is unknown, for nobody knew the true nature of this unknown entity, and that was why it never had a name.

And thus, when Fruity awakened it, he became powerful, but he never changed as Klaus did.

His eyes were also blue, and he had blue horns. His skin was pale, but it had a golden hue to it. He didn’t increase in size, but his physique underwent some changes.

His strength, just by sensing his aura, had also become very monstrous.

If Klaus were to check the system screen now, he would see that he had awakened a bloodline and, as a result, received a unique skill along with a huge boost to his stats.

However, even if that wasn’t enough, he would also see that, aside from the bloodline awakening, he had also awakened—or perhaps received—some powerful soul weapons now hovering inside his soul sea.

But his identity would have to be put into question. The current appearance he had taken on had no origin. It was an unknown race of a kind.

So, in a way, he had become the first of his kind.

True, there are races with horns, but there aren’t any with blue, almost translucent horns like his. His are unique, and while the bloodline he awakened may raise many questions, the appearance it brought was also questionable.

The current Klaus doesn’t have a background or lineage he can refer to. He can only brag about his handsomeness, which has taken on a unique turn.

Ladies would, without a doubt, blink a few times when they saw him…especially those horns.

But aside from the good looks, he has undoubtedly become very powerful. He is now extremely powerful.

He received a bloodline ability called [World of Illusion].

This ability essentially uses Klaus’s mental strength to visualize how his illusion should turn out. He doesn’t have to depend on other illusion techniques to cast illusions.

If he wants to create tangible illusion clones of himself, he can just use his mind.

And with his [Hivemind], which was currently working in overdrive and even adding more to the hive, and his [Hypnotic Ice] now awakened, who is to say what he would be capable of?

If the rumors and theories about the true nature of the Primordial Blood of the Unknown (763.7) are true, then the current Klaus has become what they call a true monster that only appears once every generation.

He can easily destroy anyone with mental strength lower than the requirement to see an illusion. Klaus has now awakened one bloodline, making him part paragon.

As for the poison, it was currently contained for some reason, as if something was preventing it from coming out. Perhaps that was for the best…for now.

However, while that would have been enough, the multi-dimensional cube in his soul sea revolved, and then a powerful soul energy burst out of his body…

…Another bloodline is awakening…
