A few hours after Klaus and his friends picked up their missions at the missions hall, one of the instructors secretly contacted Hunter Duncan, one of Klaus's enemies, and provided him with details about Klaus's mission.
This made Hunter very happy. He also paid the instructor by sending millions of gold coins into his account. He was one of the many spies the legacies and clans have in the academy.
Talk about their fear of the Overlords.
Hunter then contacted their agents outside, who relayed the information to the head of the Duncan Legacy family. The news was received with great joy.
In turn, the head of the Duncan Legacy family inford his allies, who also enthusiastically welcod the news. Naturally, things beca exciting for them whenever sothing concerning Klaus ca to their attention.
Thus, the Duncan Legacy family, along with the Nabil, Jiwon, and Mason Great Clans, sent their forces to assist in this grand undertaking.
Each group dispatched 20 Sages, 10 Great Sages, and one Sovereign to go after Klaus and his friends who are now outside the protection of the academy.
They were aware they would be venturing into uncharted territory, but since it wasn't the Badlands, they knew no external forces would likely interfere.
Their plan relied on the event that only Klaus and his companions would be present.
However, they failed to realize that Klaus and his friends were there on the advice of an Overlord. Fortunately for them, Nari was stopped before she could unleash her fire upon them.
But were they truly lucky?
"Klaus Hanson, it's ti for you to die," one of the Sovereigns, a man nad Kaden, declared as he appeared at Klaus's location.
"Everyone, move behind ," Klaus instructed calmly. His friends obeyed without hesitation. Klaus neither panicked nor showed any signs of retreating.
"You can't escape; you're already surrounded," another Sovereign said coldly, smiling at Klaus, who remained steadfast.
Klaus, unfazed, moved closer to his friends and had Hanna send Kathy into the beast space.
He made sure his friendstayed close together before turning toward the Sovereigns hovering in the air.
"Let guess—you losers are from the Duncan Legacy family, right?" Klaus asked, his tone dripping with ridicule.
"Be arrogant all you want. After today, you will cease to exist," Kaden said, laughing slightly.
Klaus chuckled.
"I don't think so, buddy. Naturally, soone of my handsoness, finesse, and charm wouldn't die to a bunch of weirdos who only know how to bully children. But don't worry, I won't let you guys die for nothing."
He smirked. "Before sending you on your way, I'll tell you a short story. Better pay close attention."
Klaus smiled at the group of undertakers sent by the Legacy and Clans. Watching his smile, they began to sense sothing was wrong.
The way Klaus was handling the situation felt off—too calm, too deliberate.
But, like in any story, these losers didn't connect the dots. And thus, they remained oblivious to what Klaus was cooking. In their eyes, they outnumbered Klaus and his pals in the dozens.
Naturally, Klaus's friends began to panic. This, of course, was by design. Even the usually composed Hanna seed unnerved. This display made the enemies believe they still had the upper hand.
Klaus, however, simply looked at the warriors in front of him and smiled.
"Here's the story," he began. "It's about a handso, charming, sweet, pacifist young man called Fruity. You see, Fruity was born a charr. Ladies loved him, and mothers wanted him around their daughters.
"Because of this, his charm and na spread far and wide. However, this was received poorly by a bunch of weirdos who thought the world was theirs.
"And so, they started pursuing this handso fellow who hated violence, by the way. Along the way, he made friends who, though they liked him, secretly wanted to be like him.
"Naturally, they're just daydreaming."
Klaus turned and gave his pals a sidelong glance and a winked.
This almost broke their composure, but they managed to stay in character. Klaus chuckled inwardly.
"I think I left sothing out. Found it." Klaus smiled and continued, "You see, this charming individual has a pet dragon that loves to burn people alive. However, because this handso fellow hates violence, he never allows it to co out.
He doesn't want to sll burnt humans.

However, humans seem to hate the idea of losing even for a mont, and thus, they continue to pursue him. One day, they cornered him in a Forbidden Zone with a team of 80 Sages, 40 Great Sages, and 4 Sovereigns.
These weirdos thought that he was done since they outnumbered him in both numbers and strength.
But they failed to notice that the charming, handso Fruity had just lost a battle against a Peak Transcendent. And while he hated violence, he also hated losing. So he was infuriated.
He had lost a great chunk of Experience Points. That could not be forgiven. I an, do you think he wouldn't be angry for losing that chunk of Experience Points?
Luckily, the Legacies and Great Clans sent a large sum of experience points disguised as a bunch of weirdos dressed in armour.
They cornered this Fruity, who told his friends to start panicking to make the enemies lower their guards so he could hook on to their souls and steal their energy for his attack.
And now that he has obtained a large sum of soul energy, he can do this."
"Demon Killing Circle," Klaus muttered, imdiately turning pale. The four Sovereigns in the air imdiately lost their balance and fell to the ground.
Klaus activated the Demon Killing Circle and used it against them.
"Do you want to know what happened next?" Klaus smiled and then rubbed his dragon tattoo, which excitedly glowed red.
"In your next life, rember my na: Klaus Hanson, The Last Paragon."
"Incinerate them," Klaus muttered coldly.
Suddenly, the tattoo on his arm glowed crimson, and then a 140-ter-long fire dragon appeared and roared loudly, unleashing the Dragon Authority, which instantly pressed down on the warriors.
Then, it activated the dragon's breath.
What followed was a chorus of screams filled with pain, anguish, and regret. Klaus imdiately activated the [Bell of Harrows], shielding his friends from the heat and the stench of burned flesh.
All around them, the warriors sent to kill them were consud by flas as the Awakened Fla, the Chaotic Nirvana Fla Dragon, unleashed its fiery wrath.
As instructed, the dragon was incinerating them with rciless precision.
This continued for ten whole minutes until the last of the dood warriors were burned off the face of the world.
Klaus breathed a sigh of relief as the pain in his soul finally lifted. The Demon Killing Circle had cancelled their skills and prevented them from escaping. Basically, he turned them into dummies.
But it ca at a great cost.
[Brat, your soul is in bad shape now. It would be best if you avoided using any soul-type skills for the next few days,] the senior advised, making Klaus sigh.
He had overused his soul strength, even after employing the Soul Hook skill to siphon the warriors' soul strength.
Sighing again, Klaus walked over to the Phoenix Flafruit tree and plucked 15 ripe fruits before storing the entire tree in his soul space. It joined the other heavenly plants he planned to transplant at the peak of the academy mountain.
With that task handled, Klaus returned to his friends, who were still inside the protective bell. They all looked horrified, though they were faring much better compared to when he committed the massacre back in Union City.
"Let's go, guys," Klaus said, releasing them from the bell.
They moved around, gathering the cores and so of the dead monster bodies before leaving. Their missions were complete, and it was ti to return to the academy.
