The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse - Chapter 583

Chapter 583: Soul Rebirth

A few minutes before Klaus exploded the 5th core…which caused Miriam to open her eyes after hours, finally.

Klaus began exploding his cores starting from the 7th. After becoming a Great Sage, his cultivation base advanced to the 7th stage, granting him 7 Sovereign Cores and 2 Great Cores.

Now, he had already exploded the 7th, 6th, 5th, and 4th cores, and finally, he was about to explode the 3rd. When he did, a wave of life energy surged into her soul world, completing its formation entirely.

Klaus looked around and frowned.

“Senior, shouldn’t there be clouds, rivers, trees, and other things inside the soul world?” Klaus asked. The entire space was now white, having transformed from darkness to light.

[That is because her soul will undergo rebirth, and for that to happen, you must first live here. This will occur based on her fate. Your presence is clashing with her fate, meaning if you remain here for too long, her soul world will form, but it won’t necessarily be hers.]

“I see. When can I go now, or do I have to do something else?” Klaus asked.

[You can leave. You have already formed a soul three times bigger than the one she used to have. You’ve done enough; the rest is up to fate.]

Klaus nodded, and then he brought Miriam out of his body. Well, it was more like they were both souls, so he brought her out from his soul.

Immediately, he did. There was a rumble, and he could see changes starting to happen.

“I’ll be going out now… Catch you on the outside,” Klaus said with a smile.

“Race you,” Miriam replied, smiling as well. She could now sense that her soul had fully formed. She could also tell Klaus was fine, but deep down, she knew it wasn’t as simple as he made it seem. He was pretending…

Miriam opened her eyes outside; however, the moment she left her soul space, a tyrannical energy descended into the space, halting Klaus’s escape. He was locked down. Even the anchor linking him to Old Lu was severed.

This caused Old Lu to cough up blood causing everyone to frown. But they weren’t the only ones doing the frowning.

Back inside Miriam’s soul world…

“So we finally meet, Paragon,” Klaus suddenly heard a voice speak, and for some reason, fear gripped him. It was a fear he had felt before.

It was when Queenie told him they should spar. The trauma from his third incarnation followed him into his current life. Now, he was feeling yet another fear, and he knew this also had something to do with one of his past incarnations.

“Who are you… reveal yourself,” Klaus said, looking around.

“Lol, look at you giving orders, Divine Archer. Are you perhaps overestimating your strength now?” The voice spoke with mocking laughter.

“Who are you?” Klaus asked again, still looking around.

“You will know soon enough. For now, saying too much will bring Karma, isn’t that right, Paragon? After all, this meeting was all your idea. I have to say, your ability to predict the future is impeccable.”

“Wait a minute, I predicted this…?” Klaus raised an eyebrow. Though he wanted to know more, his curiosity was easily piqued.

“No, silly. You predicted this world. You predicted the ending and even predicted that we would meet someday in the future. But as to how? You said nothing about that.

Still, I always have a nagging feeling you always knew. Of course, whether it was your scheming that made it possible or fate, I will find out when I dissect your brain and examine it like I wanted to eons ago.”

The voice smiled, sending chills down Klaus’s spine.

“Can you reveal yourself? I know you are Miriam’s incarnation, but from when?” Klaus asked again.

“No… You are not ready to meet me yet, and yes, I am her incarnation. For now, spend your peaceful days with me in this incarnation. When I awaken, we will continue from where we left off.”

Klaus felt his soul finally released, jolting him awake in the real world.

“Fuck… I need to talk to that hedgehog and find out who he’s pissed off. This lady gives me the creeps,” Klaus muttered under his breath, loud enough for the ladies around him to raise an eyebrow.

Miriam was sitting in a lotus posture, undergoing some kind of transformation. When Klaus stared at her face, a chill ran down his spine.

‘Fuck… why do I always find myself in situations like this?’ Klaus thought as he glanced at the ladies around him, wondering how they all connected to his past.

When his eyes met Lucy’s and Anna’s, he smiled, for he had finally received the next set of memories from Fruity. Now, he knew some more, but he would have to let the memories flow like before to know everything.

From his smile, it was plain that something good had happened… as to what, you will find out later. Klaus focused his attention on Miriam, who was reverting to her young self.

Meanwhile, inside her soul space, many changes were taking place. If one were to compare her previous soul to this one, one would notice some major differences.

The world was now filled with the aura of tyranny, but aside from that, there was a part filled with love. Perhaps one could say that for someone who was known to be full of tyranny, a small part of her was reserved for love.

However, for some reason, the tyrannical part was huge, which was disturbing. But as time went on in her soul space, her loving side began to expand, and soon, it was on the same level as her tyrannical side.

When everything was done, the soul world began to shake violently. It was as if a wave of danger was washing over the soul world.

However, it wasn’t that. Instead, it was the awakening of a sword that once struck fear in the hearts of many. Whenever the sword appeared, tyranny followed.

That was why they called it the Sword of Tyranny. On the outside, Miriam was surrounded by a mist made of golden light.

After the sword appeared, Miriam opened her eyes, dispersing the mist. When the mist cleared, she returned to her previous self but with new features.

Before her rebirth, she had been a beauty with dark hair, but now, she had silver hair and blue eyes. Aside from that, her figure had also become more pronounced in certain areas.

It was the same trait that had initially attracted Klaus, and seeing it now made him very happy, causing him to smile. His ladies, including his mother, noticed why he was smiling but chose to ignore him and focus on Miriam.

She became much more beautiful, perhaps due to awakening her bloodline. Unlike the rest of his ladies, hers, like Nadia’s, hadn’t been locked.

This transformation caused her appearance to align with her bloodline. She remained human, unlike Nadia, who had become an Elf. However, she now had a golden gem with six edges embedded on her forehead.

There were other changes as well, but Klaus didn’t have much time to observe them. He was utterly exhausted and wanted to sleep.

“Welcome to the land of the living, Miriam,” Klaus said before turning to Nia.

“Nia, you and the twins should go to Controversial News and bring that lady. Tell her I have an announcement to make. If she accepts, bring only her.”

He then turned to Queenie. “You can tell the Overlords not to interfere in the battles that will happen in the coming days. Also, you can start looking for a replacement for the next Legacy family of the Northern Union.

In a week’s time, I will kill every last one of the Duncan Legacy family that dare raise their weapons at me.”

Immediately after saying that, he fell onto Hanna’s shoulder, who was right beside him. He drifted into sleep, only to be pulled into a meeting with Knox, his second incarnation…
