The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1363: Unwelcomed

The moment Klaus and Rory entered Planet Fiapre’s atmosphere, they sensed 12 powerful auras lock onto their bodies.

It was as if they had been waiting for them, so the moment they entered the planet’s atmosphere, they made their move.

A silver bow appeared in Rory’s hand, her gaze turning cold. She is a warrior, so the moment she sensed danger, the first thing she did was pull out her weapon.

As for Klaus, he remained seated in his chair, a smug smile appearing on his face.

On the outside, twelve Immortal Lords stood in the air, staring daggers at the spaceship as it started to slow down. None of them moved toward the ship, but they showed no sign of taking their gaze off it.

"Relax, Rory. If they wanted to cause trouble, they would have already attacked. And even if they are here to cause trouble, only you aren’t enough to handle them, so relax and let them make the first move."

Rory said nothing, but she lowered her bow.

"I can kill at least seven of them before they get to me," she suddenly said, making sure she was heard by the twelve Immortal Lords before summoning her bow back into her soul sea.

Klaus smiled but said nothing otherwise. He, on the other hand, was out of his league, so he knew not to make any move that would make things worse.

He had fought an Immortal Lord before, but these ones are way out of his league. Blood shadow is much weaker compared to this bunch.

Rory is an Immortal Lord with six Immortal Rings, so it was normal for her to make such bold claims.

The moment the spaceship docked, the twelve Immortal Lords appeared before the gate. It opened, and Klaus walked out first, a smile playing on his face.

"Hello, seniors. I don’t suppose you know the direction to the Warrior Tower?" Klaus asked, turning to face the twelve Immortal Lords.

He may not have the means to face them in combat, but he is also not afraid of dying. He knows they wouldn’t dare touch Rory, so he can be arrogant to some extent. Even if they were to kill him, he would just create a new body.

’They seem to have a calm expression, so at least that is a good sign.’

Klaus turned and looked at Rory, who stood behind him, her expression locked on the strongest of the twelve Immortal Lords.

He is a High Human with a razor-sharp aura that reveals he is a swordsman. He was the one Klaus paid the most attention to.

His aura shows he is even stronger than Rory.

"I am Night Blade, the head elder of the Warrior Tower on Planet Fiapre." The High Human introduced himself, then a frown appeared on his face. "You are the Renegade Hunter."

"That is me."

"What is your real name?" Night Blade asked, causing Klaus to narrow his eyes a bit. However, he smiled and answered.

"Klaus." He paused and stared at him for a few seconds. "Klaus Hanson."

"Tell me, Klaus Hanson. Why did you come here?" His question made Klaus frown. He knew they were already aware of his arrival, so why ask such a meaningless question?

"Uhm, Lord Flux came to me with the request to become a warrior under the Warrior Tower, so I guess that is why I am here."

"That won’t be necessary. The Warrior Tower doesn’t need a poster boy," Night Blade said, letting out a smirk.

Klaus hummed, then he turned to Rory. "You heard the man. I am not wanted here, so let’s go."

Rory nodded and walked back to the ship. Meanwhile, Klaus turned back to Night Blade. "Tell Lord Flux I said hi."

With that, he walked back to the ship, and before long, they were gone. Everything happened so fast that none of them expected Klaus to act so simply. But they got what they wanted.

After they were gone, Night Blade looked at the others standing beside him and asked, "What now?"

"We report to the Warrior Tower that he came to reject the invite, thereby breaking the contract."

He nodded and retrieved a communicator to make a call. However, as if the person he was about to call knew he was about to call, his communicator rang...

This made him frown.

"What did you do?" Lord Flux’s angry face appeared, causing Night Blade to take a few steps back. Their plan backfired, and that is plain from how angry Lord Flux looks.

"Lord Flux,"

"I ask, what did you do?"

Night Blade sucked in a deep breath and spoke, "I merely followed the Lord Supreme’s instruction."

Lord Flux’s gaze narrowed. "Is the Celestial Council aware?"

Night Blade did not respond.

However, one could tell Lord Flux was pissed beyond reason. The work he had done was dismantled because some people felt uneasy about granting Klaus the privileges the warrior Tower had promised him.

Lord Flux hung up the call and quickly dialled someone else’s number. A second later, the person picked up. It was the face of a lady who seemed a bit bored to be talking this early morning.

"What now, Flux?"

"Supreme Lord Juo and his people drove the Renegade Hunter away."

"What?" The dullness on her face cleared in an instant. "When?"

"Just now. He came to the headquarters to register as I told him, but before he could even land, he was driven away. He called to inform me, and from the way he sounded, it seemed he wanted nothing to do with us anymore."

"Bastards." Lord Flux shuddered, looking at the furious expression that had appeared on the lady’s face. She is a supreme, so despite appearing as a hologram, he felt threatened.

"Find a way to pacify him. I will handle the rest on my end. Even if you have to add more to what we already offered him, do it. Just make sure the bridge doesn’t burn completely."

"I will do my best."

The call ended, and Lord Flux quickly dialled another number. A few seconds later, Lord Victor’s projection appeared.

"Flux, what now?"

Lord Flux smiled faintly. "I need your help again, Victor."

From the moment Klaus sensed the gaze of the twelve Immortal Lords, he knew things wouldn’t end peacefully, so he tasked Icon to record everything.

This way, when the time came, he would have video evidence to show everyone he wasn’t at fault. Lord Victor had already told him he mustn’t reject their offer.

However, he isn’t the kind of person who will put up with just any nonsense.

Of course, his plan for the future depended on ensuring that, within the Warrior Temple, his name carried some respect and his achievements could not be denied.

So making sure he joined them was a must. But if they didn’t want him, then he wouldn’t sell himself so low to the point that he would appear desperate.

He had to have that respect and dignity. He had to have that aura that would make them want him. So if they wanted him gone, he wouldn’t argue.

He left, and while he had nowhere else to go, he decided to never turn back to Planet Fiapre and, if possible, never step there ever again.

They didn’t want him, so he didn’t want them either.
