There is yin and yang.
Cause and effect.
Check and balance.
Black and white.
In life, everything has a counter. Everyone has something that can go against the.
Day can trump night, just as night can trump day.
It is the cycle of life.
Nothing remains the same forever.
Klaus first met them when he came from the tormented world in his 4th incarnation.
They called themselves hunters. They are the blades of the heavens that, to some extent, ignore the rules and do the bidding of the heavens without any backlashes.
He fought and killed many. Those annoying hunters can just pop up randomly, but as far as he knew, they only appear when a paragon forms a soul body.
Their targets are the soul bodies belonging to those who go against the heavens. Naturally, it was Klaus and his past incarnations.
So, for a hunter to appear now, one had to say the heavens had succeeded, for the hunters he knew were some of the most powerful beings he had fought.
Now, the one that has appeared and is squeezing the life out of Lucy is a Tier 11 hunter, standing at the peak of that stage with nobody on Earth or the moon having the means to kill it.
Even Klaus, with his thousands of skills, techniques, spells, and weapons, wouldn’t have the means to fight it.
Everyone who felt its presence felt their spirits breaking.
However, there is that check and balance.
The yin and yang.
Klaus isn’t a normal being.
He is surrounded by karma, which means the heavens can always be unpredictable around him. However, Klaus is also someone the heavens cannot control or read.
Meaning everything he does is outside their view.
So while they took advantage of the triplets to create a calamity for Earth, Klaus’s past has also played its hand in countering the heavens.
Thanks to the heavens breaking many rules, they actually helped him forgo much karma by awakening a part of him he hadn’t yet remembered.
This part will be one of his many trump cards, which would be key to saving the Earth this time.
Inside his fifth core, the giant diagram is complete, and it’s now slowly glowing dark red inside the darkness. It was the only thing illuminating the space.
Klaus, who sensed the changes, immediately activated it.
“Death’s Chosen.”
The moment he muttered that, his armor, which was more like exo-alien armor, shifted, and a dark cloth with a hood appeared around Klaus.
The two short horns on the previous armor vanished, and his unknown bloodline activated, causing his Unknown form to appear with violet hair. He is Klaus, but in a different form.
When he awakened the unknown bloodline, that form was born, and now it has activated, making his translucent, beautiful horns become opaque, black, and long.
The saber in his hand vanished, and a long, dark staff with an eye embedded at the head of it appeared in his hands.
“You dare hold my wife.” His voice was cold as his aura burst, turning the entire ten-mile radius black and white.
“Death’s Chosen… First move.” He waved the staff. “Death’s Gaze.” His eyes shone darker as a giant dark eye appeared in the sky and snapped open.
The hunter holding Lucy by the throat almost immediately crashed to the ground, unable to get back up.
Lucy flew from its hand and instantly appeared beside Klaus, coughing. The moment she appeared beside him, Klaus tapped her forehead.
“Death’s Blessing…” She passed out immediately.
Klaus waved his hand, and she flew into Nari’s arms.
He looked toward Queen Lunara with eyes empty of emotion. “Take them away from here.”
Queen Lunara couldn’t even ask any questions since the look in Klaus’s eyes wasn’t one she could challenge. She waved her hand, and they vanished.
They appeared where the rest of the teams were and quickly made them fly back another three miles, further away from the battlefield.
Klaus looked at the four snakes on the ground and waved his staff, causing all four bodies to move and, like ropes, begin tying into each other.
Their painful cries filled the air as their bodies twisted, elongated, and knotted together until their elasticity could no longer expand. That was when their cries ceased.
Klaus then vanished and appeared before the hunter, who was still struggling under the pressure of the Death Gaze.
He pointed his staff at the hunter and was about to execute him when the space around him and the hunter twisted, and they appeared in a new place.
It was a riverbed with white marbles and small golden fish swimming all over. When Klaus appeared, the marbles turned dark, and the fish died instantly.
Klaus turned and looked at the white-bearded man standing a few meters from him, surrounded by white energy.
“Are you sure you want to kill the weapon of the heavens, Paragon?” the man asked.
“Nothing is stopping me from doing that,” Klaus said, with the staff still pressed against the eye of the hunter, who couldn’t even move.
“Which one of them are you? The first, second, third…”
“All of them,” Klaus answered.
Though he did not know the figure standing before him, he sensed no killing intent from him. So he was answering his questions truthfully.
He had become the heir of death, though only for a borrowed time. But that was enough for him to know the figure meant him no harm.
Instead, he could tell the person was there for a reason.
“All of them, you say.” A smile appeared on the man’s face. “Then I will call you Kaden, for the paragon I knew was named Kaden.”
“I don’t mind.”
“So, Kaden, do you know the heavens have set a perfect trap for you, and if you kill this hunter, your world will come to an end, killing billions?” The man spoke, and Klaus remained silent.
“Very well,” the man, who knew he wouldn’t talk, waved his hand, and a scene appeared before Klaus.
“I saw many outcomes of your encounter with this hunter, and in all, you killed him, but after you did, this became your world.
I am not here to tell you what to do, but watch and decide for yourself.”
