The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1404: The Seven Dominion Eye Art

Klaus opened his eyes on the outside.

In that instant, when he opened it, he saw the world change color from its natural glow to black and white. He looked up and saw that everything around him had changed.

Lord Victor and Rory still looked human, but what he was looking at went beyond what the normal eye could see.

First, he saw the energy flowing in their bodies. He saw how many Immortal Rings they had, how powerful they were, and even the location of their cores.

Aside from that, he could see their domain and other secrets that the ordinary eye could not see.

He even managed to see beyond their physical appearance, seeing deeper into their skeletal structure. In that moment, he felt like he knew everything about them.

He saw the flaws in their body and how to help them fix them. His eyes had become a supernatural X-ray machine.

However, that also made him furrow his brow, because what he was looking at, if translated accurately, meant that Rory and her father are monsters of nature.

All nine Immortal Rings under Lord Victor’s command each gave him a 30% boost, while Rory’s gave her 28%.

Naturally, that is something he never saw coming.

To many, 30% is the biggest boost an Immortal Ring could give. However, it is actually 35%. But if someone like Lord Victor has a 30% boost from one Immortal Ring, then it means when all are applied, that is a 270% boost.

Naturally, that makes him super powerful. With that much boost, there is just no way an average Immortal Lord would be able to do much when facing him in battle.

But away from that, Klaus noticed something else.

Looking into their eyes, he could see three colored auras coming from them. There was gold, silver, and blue.

He had no idea what those were, but he didn’t dwell on it much, since the next moment a voice reached him.

”Congratulations on learning the Seven Dominion Eye Art.”

Klaus turned his gaze toward the Burning Angel.

However, while Lord Victor and Rory were black and white in his eyes, the Burning Angel was colored.

This instantly told him his technique wouldn’t work on him.

He turned back to the two, and as he expected, they remained black and white. This made him sigh and decide to deactivate it altogether. He is not at the stage where he could use it against a Celestial.

”Thank you,” he said, stood up, and dusted himself before flying back into the air. ”How long was I out?”

”Seven hours. That is impressive, by the way.” Although he was in great shock because Klaus had done the impossible, something else had taken hold of his thoughts.

He had his suspicions that Klaus was the Paragon. However, because he sensed no Paragon energy from him, he concluded that he wasn’t him, that maybe the token was flawed.

But that thought is gone now. This time, he knew Klaus was indeed the Paragon.

Klaus narrowed his eyes at him, making sure their gazes met for a few seconds before he smiled. Then, using telepathy, he spoke to him,

’I know you know I am the Paragon and that you and I go way back, so stop pretending. These two already know who I am because, just like you, they also have a way to tell my identity.’

For a moment, the Burning Angel said nothing. However, that was only for a few seconds before a smile appeared on his face.

”How did you do it?” he asked.

”Do what?”

”How were you able to hide your aura? You know, the aura that always allows the heavens to sense you are the Paragon.”

Klaus laughed, almost feeling amused by how curious the Burning Angel became. He expected him to ask something else, like how he had learned all seven levels of the technique so quickly. However, hearing his question, he couldn’t help but laugh.

”I suppose you can say you aren’t the only one with a Primal Bloodline.”

The Burning Angel raised his brow. ”So that was why, huh. Looks like you knew what you were doing from the start.”

He turned and looked at Lord Victor and Rory. ”Sorry for threatening your lives. I just wanted to confirm something and needed leverage.”

They nodded, but seeing the look that appeared in his eyes, Klaus knew he could see they didn’t trust him. This piqued his interest, so he asked,

”The colors, what are they?”

He saw three colors when he scanned Rory and her father. While he had no idea what they each represented, the Burning Angel had been using them for a while, so he knew.

”They are the emotional, feelings and psychological states of a person. Each color represents an emotion, feeling, or just the thoughts of the person.”

”Gold, silver, and blue,” Klaus said.

”The gold represents trust. Anyone with that color trusts you. They only show when you interact with the person for a long time. Of course, if you also happen to trust them and make them aware of that, there is a chance they would too.

It was the reason why I knew they could be trusted and didn’t kill them immediately.

Silver represents fear. These two have it on them, which is perfectly normal. They are mere Immortals in front of a Celestial. That alone is enough reason to know they are genuine with their emotions.

Also, using them to get under your skin didn’t help. Once again, I apologize for that.

And as for the blue, it means sorrow or regret.” He paused and looked at Lord Victor and Rory.

”I honestly don’t know why that emotion is there, but I suppose learning they are about to die made them sorrowful and regretful. You would be surprised by how many regrets one has buried that only surface when they are about to die.

I have spared many because of those emotions. Some turned out to be good people who were made to do bad things just so they and their loved ones could live.”

Klaus nodded, a bit stunned by how much information is hidden within colors. He had only seen three colors, but he knew for a fact that there were other colors that he would discover later.

If he could understand them to some degree, there was a chance that, with a simple glance, he could tell why someone had to die or which button to press to get under their skin.

However, before he could ask for more clarity, the Burning Angel spoke.

”I will contact you later through the Dark Space. If I keep you here long enough, there is a chance more Celestials will join the search, which I know for a fact wouldn’t end well.

So why don’t you tell me what favors you want, since I owe you six?”

Klaus nodded.

He indeed wouldn’t want to be the reason so many Celestials meet and start fighting. Now that he knew the Burning Angel was on his side, he could rest well knowing the Warrior Tower wouldn’t dare come after him as if he were their worst enemy.

Of course, he is bound to have some altercations with them every now and then, but they wouldn’t send a powerful warrior after him, not when the Burning Angel is protecting him from behind the scenes.

Also, he may have rejected the gifts the Supremes gave him so he could better explain his current standing and tell everyone he is not a simple person. However, he knew he would have to meet them and apologize soon, rather than later.

The last thing he wanted was for the Universe Bank or the academy to become his enemies.

Plus, now that he has a Supreme or a few Supremes as his enemies, he really needed a weapon from a Supreme Engineer’s personal vault and the backing of the Universe Bank for treasures he would be purchasing in the future.

But that is for later.

Now, he needed to make things right with Rory and her Father.
