Chapter 1034: Who to give Priority
âRelax, everyone. I am who I am now and will become who I am meant to be because of you all, so stop arguing about who is the best. In my eyes, you all are the same and important to me,â Klaus said, putting an end to the argument that was brewing between his soul bodies.
âStill, I am the best among us,â Paragon said with a smirk.
Klaus just smiled and shook his head.
âYou guys are still missing the most important thing,â Klaus said, looking at the six faces standing before him.
Asura seemed to notice what Klaus said, so he raised his brow, âThe bloodline shows 3 out of ten. This means you also have yet to awaken your bloodline.â
âIndeed,â Klaus smiled and said, âMy bloodline is yet to awaken, but I can already tell it will be much more impressive than you nine.â
âIt will be, only because you will be leeching off ours,â Paragon spoke with a smug expression, causing the smile on Klausâs face to falter.
He reached and grabbed Paragonâs cheek, causing the handsome child whose eyes revealed traces of injustice to scream and pound his chest.
If one were to see this display, they would think Klaus was merely playing with his siblings, who are identical Sextuplets.
âLet me go,â Paragon wiggled in Klausâs arm, but he couldnât move even a finger.
âWe shouldnât focus on these pointless arguments. For now, which of the three do you plan on giving the 50 points to?â Asura asked.
âWhoever among them who manages to impress me will get the 50 points.â
âAre you being serious?â Asura asked, looking at Klaus with a suspicious gaze. âNone of us expected something this amazing to happen to us.
However, it happened, and the outcome is that you now have the means to easily enhance your bloodlines. This also means you now have the means to face the awakening without much fear.
So what do you mean by you giving the spot to just any of them?â Asura swallowed his breath and continued.
âIt is true that all of us are amazing in our own way. However, at the moment, you need Magnusâs power more than Efad and Fruity.
Magnus was the Paragon of war. His power and innate domain essentially align with the challenges you will face in 52 days. His bloodline power holds the potential for you to fight beyond your capabilities.
So why not give the highest point to him and play the childish game between Fruity and Efad?â
Klaus listened to Asura with a smile that showed he understood where he was coming from, but he didnât plan on following his suggestion.
âIt is true that Magnus has the potential to help me in the awakening. Trust me, I know that. However, the current me is nowhere weaker than a peak Domain stage warrior.
In fact, killing multiple Domain stage warriors is now within my capabilities. So while giving priority to Magnus will turn me into a Vampire of war, donât forget the potential Efad and Fruity hold.â Klaus let go of Paragon and stood up.
He walked back and then activated the âWorld of Illusionâ technique. To the six soul spirits around, Klaus was still standing before them.
However, the real Klaus was actually standing behind them.
âWhat do you think?â Klaus asked, causing them to turn around and look at him. He smiled and continuedâŠ
âThis is merely the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Fruity. His illusion ability is one that defies common sense. At first, if your mental capacity and soul are strong enough, you will be able to see through my illusions.
However, now that I have reached the Chaos stage, not only can I use the âTangible Meâ aspect of it to create thousands of me, but all those thousands will possess the combat power of a Chaos stage warrior, and because they are me, they can easily kill Ascension stage and even Nether stage warriors.
In fact, if I were to limit that number to just 100, they could even face early-stage Domain stage warriors.â Klaus studied the expressions of his soul bodies and smiled.
âNow, imagine I use just ten illusions,â he laughed, âAll of this is possible with merely 10% bloodline awakened. Imagine I awaken 60% of it⊠How terrifying then would I become.â
He walked toward them, sat down, and continued, âLetâs not forget there is a poison aspect of it too. If I mix that poison with the illusion, Peak Domain stage warriors will be nothing before me.â
âThen there is Efad. At the moment, my strongest trump card is from the Star Monarch Bloodline.
Aside from that, if anything, the fact that increasing the bloodline power of the Star Monarch bloodline will make the hundreds of thousands of warriors who took my blood much stronger should be enough to give him priority as well.
So while this point is indeed an unexpected welcome, letâs assume it didnât come and now I have to face the heavens with my current strenghtâŠâ Klaus smirkedâŠ
âI believe I will be able to handle them with the strength I have now. This is just an added bonus that will give me an edge in the coming battle.â
Asura listened to Klausâs explanation and, after digesting it for a while, he nodded.
âI suppose this is a good thing then. However, I still believe Magnus should be given priority.â
âI second that,â Paragon said.
âMe too,â Knox joined in.
âI think Efad has some potential in the coming battle,â Kaden, the 8th incarnation/soul body, said, and Orion, the Paragon of Death, seconded him.
Velkhan, the 5th incarnation, looked at his siblings and shook his head, âThe reason why assassins are regarded as the most dangerous warriors in the universe is because of the way they attack.
We thrive in the shadows and in periods of unawareness. With Fruityâs illusion and the abilities from the five Monarchs, killing thousands of Domain stage warriors is not too far-fetched.
I believe he has the highest potential among the three.â Velkhan smiled and added a few words. âOnce my bloodline awakens, I believe he and I can work together to create a combination move that even Gods will fall prey to.â
Klaus nodded to all their suggestions, but he still didnât want to compromise on the promise he made to Magnus, Efad, and Fruity. Whoever among them manages to impress him will get the 50 points.
In the end, all he could ask for is more strength, and now that he has a way to get that, he is happy. The only thing now, however, is how to get more points.
He was already aware that as he grew stronger, the demand would also grow. This meant that next time, 1 million points might not be equivalent to one bloodline point.
In a way, he must work hard if he wants to raise his already awakened bloodlines to the max.
He turned to the Paragon System to inquire how long she would need to fully awaken.
âȘI estimate that I will complete the absorption and awaken in three days. Once I am fully awakened, other functions of the system will be made available.â«
âIn that case, I will wait.â
Klaus turned back to his soul bodies and smiled at them.
