Desmond and the Monk really had no choice but to accept Klaus's offer.
First, he would make them his weapon spirits, whether they liked it or not. The only upside is that if they choose to beco his weapon spirits, the process will be less painful.
But regardless of what they want, he would make them his weapon spirits, and they have no say in that. They would have no choice but to accept.
The second is the prospect of becoming a Celestial one day. They just saw Seraya transform from a weapon to a human. Naturally, that ans they can do that too.
So, while they would forever be weapon spirits, if they prove to be good boys, Klaus might allow them to take on their human forms from ti to ti.
Third, Klaus didn't fear they would betray him and even told them his true identity. To the monk, that was a leap of faith and trust that can go a long way.
He may have left the monastery to beco a bounty hunter, but his continued adherence to monastic beliefs shows he is still a monk at heart. That shows character, and Klaus, who had many experiences, knew he would be perfect for what he had planned.
Lastly, of course, it had to do with the kind of weapons they would be controlling.
The [Light Ascension Spear] was a legendary weapon said to have been used in the primordial era before becoming a relic of the heavens.
Desmond had no idea what it could do. But looking at it and feeling the power within was all he needed to know that it was a terrifying weapon. He would be wielded by a paragon and would dominate the universe once again.
As for the [Ten Calamity Prayer Bead], the South Side monk had heard of it before. It was said to be one of the three legendary weapons of the Monks.
However, it went missing many years ago.
Who would have thought that the brat whose bounty he picked, thinking he would be earning so cool cash, would be the one who stole it, and even worse, that the sa brat is the paragon?
That is a whole lot of madness to even consider.
An hour later, they made up their minds.
"Looking at the expressions on your faces, I believe you have co to a sound decision," Klaus said with a grin. Desmond frowned while the monk kept his composure.
"Trust , this is the best decision you will ever make. Believe it or not, being a celestial weapon is better than being a boring human with limited potential. At least with these weapons, you are destined to reach the celestial stage."
Klaus went ahead and started the weapon spirit contract. Ten minutes later, the contract was signed, and they could not betray him ever again.
It was after the contract was signed that Desmond and the Monk beca stunned.
"Let guess, you thought I was about to enslave you, and that was why you took too long to make up your minds." A smirk ford on his lips. "Unlike you lot, I am different. I treat my friends and allies with respect. This way, they also dedicate themselves to when I need them.
So this is your new life. You are free to do as you please. You can choose to fight or not when I ask. You can even choose not to respond to my commands.
I wouldn't care that much. The only thing is, if I get a better candidate and you remain stubborn, I will cast you out and replace you.
So this is your new life, and I most certainly would love to see you all grow with ." After saying that, he stood up and walked to a window.
Looking at the vast space before him on the first floor of the Inheritance Tower, Klaus smiled. The number of statues had reduced drastically.
This ans the warriors of Earth had found masters who would be aiding them in their cultivation. While so still remain, most are prideful and require only the best warriors.
Klaus has many subordinates he has yet to et, so soon, they will get their disciples. However, for now, the ones who have gotten masters are making swift progress, most already nearing the peak of the Empyrean stage.
When Klaus ets Goor's daughter, he will arrange for so of them to leave Earth and begin exploring the vast universe to gain more experience.
With the Paragon mark connection linking all who had taken his blood, when they are in danger, he will know and either go to their rescue or send any of his warriors.
He turned away from the window and looked at the two weapons. "I will be sending you away for now. Use the ti to make peace with your new lives. When done, you can start reading the manuals for the weapons.
They will teach you what you need to know and how to link with them. You have to handle that on your own. The earlier you succeed, the better."
With a flick of his hand, the two weapons vanished into his soul sea.
"Now that I have the weapons Paragon would be using, I need to handle the next important item on my schedule before my ti runs out."
He exited the pagoda and headed toward the portal that opened sowhere on the first floor of the Inheritance Tower. Since he is now an Immortal, he can access the 2nd floor and see what Odin left there.

[Planet Nivel]
anwhile, back on Planet Nivel, the sa planet where he rescued Ophelia and her guards, Klaus hovered in the clouds, his body getting bombarded by lightning.
He had consud the Thunder Jade Essence Ore and was currently using the power of the lightning to absorb it. The longer his body is bombarded by lightning bolts, the stronger he becos.
Of course, with his lightning affinity and the fact that he is soone cultivating the Heavenly Defying Art, despite the danger he was in, he remained like a fish in water.
There was no pain or harm coming from the bombardnts he was receiving. If anything, he was even happier that the process was taking much longer.
If it had taken less ti, most of the essence would have beco impurities, which would be a waste. However, the longer he remained under the bombardnt, the more his body absorbed the essence.
The process lasted three hours. By the ti it ended, his hair stood on end like a brat who, against the warnings from his parents, ignored them all and touched a live wire.
But he had also gained a lot from it. He shot up from the dium level of the Early Immortal stage to the High Level. That is more than he could ask for in a single cultivation session.
This also ans he is ready for the Blood Tournant that is only 3 weeks away. But first, he must head to Planet Virel, where he will et with Niva to plan how best to handle Lord Varkos.
After the Blood Tournant, Klaus would travel with him and a few others to the Underworld Slaughter Tournant, which is only 6 months after the Blood Tournant.
That is when he would die. But before his death, they would have to plan how best to handle Niva's return to the righteous faction and the academy.
