The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

When the apocalypse descended, the Moon was struck the hardest.

They had it really hard because their population wasn’t the largest, yet they had to deal with the monsters that started to evolve.

Strangely, they never had a single zombie, meaning none of their people became zombies. That was indeed good. However, every last animal on the Moon evolved into the terrifying Lunar Beasts.

This was where they suffered the most, and as such, they lost half of their population.

However, just like with Earth, when everything went to shit, a brave warrior appeared and turned the tide.

This brave warrior was Queen Lunara. She was the hope and joy of every Moon Born. In fact, they all would gladly lay down their lives for her if she asked.

That is how much they liked their leader and savior when the Moon became a cage for them.

Now, watching their queen holding back a terrifying monster such as a level 4 Tier 11 Ant King, they couldn’t help but cheer her on.

Of course, they knew the battle she was fighting wasn’t one they could comprehend, but watching her make sure the beast didn’t slip away and make things difficult for the white-haired brat, they could only cheer her on.

So when the two overlords finished their targets and arrived to help her, they knew the beast was as good as dead.

Queen Lunara’s scythe was bathed in flames as she swung, creating a colossal arc of fire that fell toward the Ant King.

However, before it could defend, a flaming arrow that transformed into the feather of a phoenix shot from the side, forcing the Ant King to raise its dual metallic arms in defense.

But that was exactly what the third lady, who had now recovered from her blood frenzy, was waiting for.

“Blood Demon Sword!”

A giant sword formed entirely of blood shot down from the air, landing heavily on the Ant King’s chest.

Of course, with its robust defense, it managed to withstand the blow; however, it was pushed back several meters, with its extremely hard exoskeleton cracking in a few places.

“Again!”

Queenie shouted, prompting both Queen Lunara and Nari to retreat, leaving the Ant King to face the queen of the Asura Borns alone.

“Blood Sanguine.”

Nobody knew where the blood came from, but out of nowhere, a large pool of blood appeared behind Queenie, casting her figure in a demonic light, making her look like a blood demon ready to commit a massacre.

“Blood Blades!”

She pointed her sword forward, and from the pool of blood, countless blades—each as sharp as death itself—shot forth, raining down upon the Ant King.

The Ant King roared in fury, its metallic arms moving at blinding speed to deflect the incoming blood blades.

Sparks flew as metal clashed against the condensed blood weapons, each impact ringing through the battlefield like the toll of a death bell.

But Queenie’s assault was relentless.

Every time a blade was blocked, three more took its place, striking from different angles, chipping away at the Ant King’s defenses.

Cracks widened across its armored body, and patches of dark, corrupted flesh began to show beneath the exoskeleton.

Queenie stepped forward, her eyes glowing a deep crimson. The pool of blood behind her surged like a living beast responding to her will.

Of course, nobody knew this blood wasn’t created using spiritual qi.

In fact, this Sanguine behind her was something every Asura Born bragged about.

They are a race of warriors who fill battlefields with blood. Legend has it that Asura Borns are the natural enemies of vampires, for they both rely on blood.

But while vampires rely on blood as a source of food, the Asura Borns rely on it as the source of their weapons.

Blood Sanguine is formed from the blood shed by their own hands. Every kill they make, every drop of blood they spill, adds up to their Sanguine.

So, watching the large pool of blood behind Queenie was witnessing the result of all the blood she had shed over the years.

In fact, this was even smaller. A Blood Sanguine can be as large as a planet. So for someone like Queenie, who enjoys battles, this was her chance to capitalize on it.

The more she kills in the future, the more she will add to her sanguine.

Of course, for now, she was merely using the Sanguine to create weapons. Her bloodline hadn’t awakened yet, so she was limited. But even that alone was doing more than one could ask.

“Big Sister, maybe you should allow us to torture this brute,” Nari said, watching the Ant King slowly being pushed into a corner.

Queenie waved her hand, and the Blood Sanguine dissipated, allowing the Great Calamity and the Queen of Battles to join back in.

Thus, they started bombarding the Ant King with not-too-hard yet not-too-simple attacks. They were preserving their strength and energy for when Klaus gave them the signal.

Klaus, on the other hand, was down to his last two clones. But that was before he activated the [Falling into Despair] skill.

Now, he had three runic circles on both his arms and legs, catapulting his speed and strength to three times their normal levels.

Klaus still had some more skills to use, but he hadn’t achieved his objective yet. Thus, for another hour, the battle kept raging on until he smiled and then called out to the ladies.

The moment they heard what he had to say, Queen Lunara’s eyes burned with flames as her speed exploded.

Then, like the grim reaper, she swung her scythe, and before the injured Ant King could realize what had happened, its head was on the ground.

Queen Lunara’s hair changed from silver-black to silver-red, and her armor even switched from the usual dark to red.

It was safe to say she had both soul armor and soul weapon, like Nari and Kathy.

“Like we planned, I will contain it while you two follow what Klaus says. This is a new level of craziness, so try not to die,” Queen Lunara said with a smile before a mask that covered only her eyes down to her nose appeared on her face.

Klaus, who saw they were ready, broke free from the attacks of the two spider demons. He smiled at them and then pointed at the Dark Spider Demon…

“See you later…”

Like what happened to Old Lu when he tried to stop Klaus from killing Kate Duncan back at the academy, the Dark Spider Demon vanished and appeared inside the encirclement created by Queenie, Nari, and Queen Lunara.

It was immediately greeted by Nari’s arrow.
