The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1778: Return of the Asura Race (5)

While the Asura King had been seen as one of the most formidable warriors to have ever lived, many seem to have forgotten about the Asura Queen, whose battlefield legends to this day terrify many.

Queenie was already a formidable warrior long before she met Asura, and after Asura came and started to raise the strength of the Asura race, she also got a boost.

That boost had, for years, made her very dangerous to her foes, one of those foes being the Silver Moon Chaos Wolf Pack.

When Queenie first discovered the pocket universe in the Chaos Cave and came to check, the Silver Moon Chaos Wolf Pack had been living in the mountain in which the gateway was located.

When she came and asked permission from the then Alpha of the Silver Moon Chaos Wolf Pack to access the gateway, they demanded that she turn around and run before they unleashed their fury on her.

Queenie isn’t an unreasonable person, but when she is serious, she can be.

Instead of trying to persuade them, she drew her sword, and when she finally stopped, half of the Silver Moon Chaos Wolf Pack had been annihilated.

She drove them from the mountains, and they had to settle in the west. It was because of that massacre that, even after billions of years had passed, they never dared to go back to the mountain that used to be their home.

Now, as they watched Queenie lead her people through the chaos cave toward that very mountain, they could only sigh in their hearts. Some who lost their loved ones also stared with angry expressions.

And a few even held killing intent in their gazes, something that they shouldn’t have done.

Just when the killing intent reached a certain level, Queenie turned her gaze in their direction, and when they saw her crimson eyes, thousands closed their eyes, many taking steps back.

Vexthra only stared at them for a few seconds before turning away.

Khana, the Grand Alpha Chaos Wolf, sighed but said nothing.

With her current strength, she could easily kill Queenie and get revenge for her people. However, before the previous Alpha left for the Primordial Chaos, he warned her that when she met the Blood Queen again, she had only two choices…

‘Become her friend if you have the chance or ignore her entirely.’

The words of that Alpha, who was also present when the Blood Queen devastated their pack, echoed in Khana’s head. Clearly, they feared her, and that fear had spread to even the children in the pack.

‘I will watch for now.’

She didn’t even show any sign that she was pissed, angry, or borderline furious. She just kept her expression neutral, something only hardened killers could do.

The massacre happening through the chaos cave continued for another 25 minutes before Queenie and her sisters finally reached the mountain.

Vexthra turned to Lulu, “Cut every last tree on and around the mountain.”

Lulu nodded, and she rose into the air. Then, with a wave of her hand, thousands of spirit swords materialised. She didn’t even wave her hand anymore; with a mental command, they moved and began slicing the very dirt of the mountain.

In no time, the mountain was clean, not even a weed standing on it.

Queenie was impressed, and so she made sure Lulu knew how pleased she was before turning to the three Asura Keys.

“Ladies, the time for you to prove your worth has come.”

Kalynda, who was the first Asura Key they had asked to follow them, stepped forward, Aster following behind her. Hermina was the last to join them.

All three of them are now Supremes.

The ladies had promised them that by the time they were asked to perform the task they had come to them for, they would all be Supremes, with terrifying powers.

Now, it was their turn to live up to their end of the bargain.

“Hidden within your souls are three keys. Each key represents a part of the Asura race.” Queenie turned and looked at Kalynda. “You represent the past of the Asura. Every last thing about the past of the Asura race is contained inside the key in your soul.

Aster, you are the present of the Asura race. From the moment the door opens to when the first of them steps out, you will represent that.

And Hermina, you are the future of the Asura race. Our future rests on you and you alone. The Asura race was supposed to be dead. However, to ensure they lived, I tore our fate line from the tapestry of fate and broke it into three.

Now, with your lives, they will return again to this universe, and with the past, present, and future coming together, we will live on for several lifetimes yet to come.”

The three ladies looked at each other and nodded. “We are ready.”

“Great. Then we can start now.”

Queenie turned and looked at her sisters and said, “Now is the time for you ladies to get to work. The moment I start opening the gateway, the heavens will fight back. Your mission is to make sure they don’t get to me, Kalynda, Aster, and Hermina.

No matter what, they cannot get near us.”

“Rest assured, Big Sister, we will not let them get near you nor the three of them,” Miriam, the War Goddess, declared, already holding her spear and ready for battle.

The rest of her sisters were also ready, and even Asha and Nadia are prepared to unleash more of their legion if need be. They understand how important this moment is to Queenie, and so they wouldn’t let the heavens ruin it.

Still seated behind the tea table, Asura sighed. “Ah, things are about to get bloody.”

The Burning Angel nodded because even though Queenie hadn’t started yet, he could already sense the heavens gazing down at them, ready to step in and prevent a race that had been removed from their tapestry of fate, thus making them all fateless.

One fateless is already enough; if thousands, perhaps millions, are added, who knows what kind of danger that would pose to the universe and the heavens by extension?
