The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse Chapter 571 Talking About the Past

"Hanna, are you alright?" Anna asked, gazing at the pale, blue-haired beauty sitting on a bed inside the tent.

Surrounding her were Kathy, Nia, Lulu, Aoi, Asha, Lucy, Lily, Klaus's male friends, and Miguel's team. They were on a mission in a Tier 7 Forbidden Zone when Hanna suddenly beca unwell.

"I'm fine. It was just a slight dizziness," Hanna replied, looking stronger now. She had been worried for a mont, which caused her paleness, but she seed to have recovered sohow.

"Then what happened?" Lucy asked, her worry evident. She cast a spell that caused green flowers to bloom around Hanna when she had turned pale. Luckily, it helped speed up the healing process.

"I don't really know... Maybe it has sothing to do with my elent. It has beco much more powerful over the past few days as I near the Sage stage," Hanna lied.

She had no choice but to lie. She couldn't explain her connection to Klaus, so she made up an excuse. However, Lucy, who had also felt unwell a few hours earlier, could sense that sothing wasn't quite right.

Still, nothing else had happened after that, and she, along with Klaus's other three won, could feel their connection with each other intact, so she assud Klaus was fine.

"Then can you fight?" Lily asked.

"I can... but maybe we should rest for a few hours. We still have a couple of missions to complete, right?" Hanna suggested. Everyone agreed.

Soon, they all retired to their tents to rest, leaving only Hanna and Klaus's won together. Naturally, Klaus's friends were sharing tents with their girlfriends.

They stayed in silence for a few minutes until Lily broke the silence.

"So, do you guys think we'll have a shot at defeating Klaus when he cos back? I an, we've all beco abnormally stronger these past weeks, huh?" Lily smiled, knowing the latter part of her sentence was true.

They had indeed beco stronger—every last one of them. Even Miguel's group had grown much stronger thanks to the techniques Klaus had given them.

However... asking whether they could defeat the monster whose fate was uncertain at the mont... was a little—

"NO," Lucy said, shaking his head. "You weren't there when he nearly killed Kate. It was like seeing the Grim Reaper in the flesh. Klaus is terrifying if none of you are aware."

Lucy could only smile. Nia, Asha, Lulu, and Aoi were the sa. They had been there when Klaus went berserk, so they knew what they were talking about.

"What type of soul is he made from? I an, we're all overpowered now, but Klaus is just abnormal. It makes wonder what kind of monster he'll beco at the level of the Overlords," Anna muttered, shaking her head.

"I don't think you should asure him on that level. He managed to hold back a Transcendent Beast while killing two Sovereigns. I'm sure he'll start killing Ascendants when he becos a Great Sage," Kathy said, but Anna just laughed.

"It seems you all are underestimating him. Little Brother is a monster. Killing Overlord-level beings isn't how we should asure him.

I don't know how I know, but I'm 100% sure he's already started killing Ascendants. Call it a gut feeling, but Little Brother is a monster that can't be asured using our expectations..."

The ladies looked at her with varied expressions, but deep down, they all knew she was right... The Klaus they knew was a monster beyond monsters.

"Hanna is right. When we first t Klaus, it was back in the Everlasting Zombie Forest, where we were caught in a zombie tide," Lily said with a smile.

"Thinking about it now, that was when we all t him. Had it not been for his tily intervention, I'm sure we would all have died."

"True, but we wouldn't have stood on the sidelines and just watched you ladies die like that," Asha said with a guilty expression.

She and Nia had been there but hadn't intervened, even as so were dying. In their defence, those who died were cowards, and as disciples of the strongest academy that fights against cowardice, they despised cowards. Your journey continues with My Virtual Library Empire

But they had also placed Anna and her team in danger, which, in a way, paved the path for them to et Klaus.

"Yeah, back then, we were all scared, but thanks to him, we survived and made friends with a generous, shaless bastard," Anna said, and they all laughed.

She hadn't told her friends yet, but when she and Klaus first t, it wasn't pleasant. It was the first ti she had seen a human kill another human up close. It freaked her out, but it was also when she beca interested in Klaus...

"I guess it all worked out in the end, indeed," Lucy said, knowing that if it hadn't been for her sister, she wouldn't have t Klaus—or fallen in love with him.

"How about you, Hanna? How did you et him in Ruin City?" Anna asked.

Hanna smiled, recalling the mont she and Klaus first t. It was her final day of hunting, and she planned to sell her loot and finally carry out her suicide revenge. She had made up her mind to die, taking down those who had killed her friend.

"He smiled at , and I approached him," Hanna said, still maintaining her smile. This caused the ladies to raise an eyebrow.

"She smiled at you?" Lucy raised an eyebrow.

"Indeed. It was when he cleared an entire region of Ruin City, killing thousands. Everyone present at the mont was scared of him, myself included. However, after he smiled at , it felt like all my fear vanished, so I approached him."

"And what happened next?" Anna asked, shifting closer to her.

"Well, he wanted help with the Warrior Tracker, so I helped him. After that, we went our separate ways, only to et again when it was ti to leave the forbidden Zone. One thing led to another, and he offered so monster cores and asked to ride the shuttle back with him."

"That was when I t you guys, and well, here we are now."

Anna supported her chin with both hands, smiling as she stared daggers at Hanna, who was also smiling, recalling her mory with Klaus. Of course, her past mories as Havina in Klaus's 4th incarnation also influenced her mood.

"This is a great romantic backstory, don't you think, Hanna?" she asked, looking at her. Hanna stared back at her and shrugged.

"It's indeed a romantic backstory. You and Klaus are like a match made in heaven," Asha joined in, followed by Lily.

"I know, right? From the mont I saw you and Klaus get down from the shuttle, I could have sworn you guys looked like lovers from a distant past," Lily added, and the three ladies giggled.

Lucy, Nia, Lulu, and Aoi also giggled, knowing exactly what the three vixens were up to. They may have ford the three Vixens, but they want to make it a four.

Hanna smiled but didn't say anything. Instead, she cast her mind back to when she and Klaus, in their past lives, used to dress up and roam around the city, causing trouble for vendors and rchants.

Her smile blood, and without her realizing it, she began to blush, making the ladies around her, including Kathy, look at her with countless emotions.
