[Heavens Court - Virtual eting]
The next few minutes after Paragon’s broadcast, the Heavens Court convened in the Dark Space to address the implications of what Paragon had just said.
All 14 council mbers were seated, and the Supre Celestial was also present, making the 15th mber. The looks on their faces clearly showed they weren’t having a good day today.
"Has anyone managed to track where the transmission ca from?" the Supre Celestial asked, but none of the Supre Elders had a positive answer. This caused him to grit his teeth.
"Sobody should make sense of what had just happened." Even though they were in a virtual space, the aura coming off his body was powerful enough to make all 14 of them pale.
"How about that new brat? What is his na again?"
"Blood Sword."
"Him. Blood Sword was the nickna of the Asura King before he beca who he was. How confident are we that he isn’t the sa person?"
"We followed up on that and discovered that at the ti of the transmission, he was at a karaoke bar on a planet owned by a cri boss," the Human Elder answered, causing a frown to appear on everyone’s face.
"What the hell is karaoke?" the Dragon Elder asked, curious to know what karaoke was.
The Human Elder glared at him, but seeing he was serious, he sighed and answered, "It is a singing ga where a song will be in words format, and you would have to sing along."
Everyone wanted to facepalm, but a sudden slam on the table by the Supre Celestial snapped them back to reality.
"So he wasn’t the one. What about the Renegade Hunter?"
The Human Elder tensed, clearly not wanting to say what he had to say next. However, he had no choice in the matter since they all wanted to figure out who the Paragon was.
"According to the spies on Planet Stella, he was, and I quote, ’during the livestream, the Renegade Hunter was sucking Lady Rory’s breast.’"
This ti, so of them facepald.
That was true for the Angel Elder, who just couldn’t wrap her mind around the report she had just heard. All of them were suddenly pleased with Blood Sword, who at least was at karaoke.
"So we don’t know who was behind the livestream and how he managed to hijack all systems in the universe. How does any of this even make sense?"
The Vampire Elder raised his hand. "Actually, the Dark Space company just released so information. Apparently, a long-ti employee of theirs was behind the hack.
They just found out, but were too late to get him, so he is in the wind. I have already ordered his capture at any cost."
"How convenient."
Everyone sighed, lost at what to even say.
Every single lead they had yielded nothing. In fact, it was as if the Paragon knew who they would be suspecting, so he made sure his livestream was broadcast at the right ti.
He had, in the past, hidden his nature for as long as he wanted to. Because of this, all the good he had done was overshadowed by the lies of the Heavens Court whenever his identity beca public.
Now, he wanted to make sure that from here onwards, all his deeds would be known and judged by everyone. He would be controlling the narrative now.
In this life, his life would be controlled by himself, unlike how the Heavens Court manipulated his deeds, making him appear like the bad guy in the past.
They knew that, and that scared them.
"Go back and use everything at your disposal to find him. As long as he is in this universe, we will find him."
"Okay, Supre Celestial." The eting ended with no tangible results whatsoever. They had no way of finding Klaus because he made sure no one would.
Efad didn’t just tell him what he had to use against the Heavens Court; he made sure his next couple of steps would shatter that fragile hold the Heavens Court had on him and everyone else.
Even now, many still believe he is the bad guy. However, when he is done with them, the Paragon everyone loved during the Primordial Era and Divine Era will rise again.
What Efad told him changed his approach entirely. This ti, the Paragon would live like the protector he was born to be, and there is nothing the Heavens can do to stop him.

While the Heavens Court was panicking, looking everywhere for the Paragon, a ship landed on Planet Virel, and two people stepped off, one in shackles.
A handso green-haired Elf pushed the back of Lord Varkos’s head, forcing him to move faster despite his legs and hands being bound in thick, power-dampening shackles.
Welcoming them were three people, two of whom Klaus had t in the past—Niva and Sera. The other person was a handso man who seed to be in his late 40s.
He stood beside Niva, and judging by so familiarities, it didn’t take Klaus a second to know who he was.
"You must be Niva’s father. I am Efad," Klaus said, a smile playing on his lips. He reached for a handshake after they got close. The man accepted and replied.
"I am Lord Dankin, ruler of Planet Yellowstone. And yes, I am Niva’s father."
His gaze turned to Lord Varkos, who seed to have arrived at death’s door. Being bound by the chains of death clearly was doing a number on him.
"He is the one who killed your daughter’s friend. I promised her she would have the chance to kill him with her own hands, so here you go."
He pushed Lord Varkos again, who tripped and fell face-first. A painful moan escaped his lips since, at the mont, even a five-year-old could pinch him to death.
He never, in his wildest dreams, expected soone to be waiting for him inside his spaceship when he left Planet Yahmir. He only found out when, midway, void portals opened in the ship and all five guards with him were sucked in.
Before he could react, Klaus appeared and shackled him, rendering him powerless to even lift a finger against him.
Afterward, he put on his mask and announced his arrival to the entire universe. He was tempted to kill Lord Varkos live, but he promised Niva he would help her get revenge and clear her na.
So taking this bastard into custody alive would do just that.
However, before Lord Dankin could make a move, a dagger appeared in Niva’s hand and, channeling all the hatred she had for Lord Varkos, she plunged it into his head, ending his life in an instant.
"Well, I guess offering his head would have the sa effect," Klaus smiled. He decided to use Efad’s face to et these people.
As ti goes by, he will wear other faces to accomplish different things. Unlike Blood Sword and the Renegade Hunter, he will not have one appearance, at least for now.
For now, he had fulfilled his promise to Niva. She later left with her father since she had to return to the academy. However, with his blood in her possession, the mont she takes it, they can talk to each other and even et.
She had no idea she had just t the Paragon and that this Paragon had set his sights on her.
