Chapter 1544: Nine Slots

With no idea that a terrifying being was set to descend into the universe and set in motion the three chains of events destiny had shown him, Klaus opened his eyes to the shock of his life.

From his wives to his father and just about everyone else, they had all become the best versions of themselves. They had become literal monsters.

Queenie, who, from the moment Klaus opened his eyes, couldn’t take her eyes off him, could only blush and hid the shock in her eyes.

During the Blood Era, many feared the Asura God. However, the one they should have truly feared was the Asura Queen, who worked in the background to make sure her man looked good.

In fact, her true power was revealed during the Blood War when she single-handedly brought the Heavens Court to its knees before she died.

She had killed so many of them that by the time she died, the Heavens Court regretted ever coming after the Asura race.

Right now, as Klaus gazed back at her, all he saw was the woman who had stood by him through thick and thin. Memories of the Asura God flooded his mind at that very moment.

But things didn’t end there.

As he turned toward Vida Stronghold, memories of his second incarnation as Knox, the Divine Archer, came back to him.

One would expect Klaus to feel joy, considering he had unlocked his Divine Archer and Asura King Classes. However, as he watched the smile on Vida’s face, scenes of his duel with the Barbarian Queen flooded his mind.

He became terrified of her, and for a moment, he forgot he was the fearsome Klaus Hanson. Thankfully, he managed to calm down and slowly recover his senses.

The Barbarian Queen had indeed traumatized him

All his wives had recovered their memories in full, every last one of them. Of course, someone like Rory, who had no past incarnation, didn’t recover any memories. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

However, she did ascend to the rank of a Demigod.

Even Lady Danika had become an Immortal King. However, while Klaus was not yet aware, after she reached the rank of an Immortal King, she became cocooned in what appeared to be dense cosmic energy.

Klaus would soon find out that she had entered a phase of awakening in which she would regain a portion of her powers as a Cosmic being. This power would soon be added to Icon and Atomic’s, improving Klaus’s growing legion.

For now, as he stood before his parents, only one thing came to mind: who among them would be privileged enough to receive the first dose of Atomic Qi?

"Klaus, what happened to us?" Lady Elysia asked, her expression showing that she was both happy and stunned by what had happened to them.

They all were. For them to grow over ten times stronger, considering their ranks, was simply too shocking.

Klaus reached for her hand and assured her, "Nothing to worry about, Mom. In fact, I have reason to believe that all of you will soon become several times stronger."

There was no doubting his words. Even King Alric felt the change and benefited from it.

But the question still remained: what was it that had managed to turn them into better versions of themselves?

"Mom, Dad, get ready. I will soon turn both of you into Peak Supremes. The same goes for you, Queenie, Nadia, and Vida."

"What?" Their eyes widened.

"Simple, really. The same energy that managed to push all of you to the current stages and states you are in can help nine more people break through to the Supreme stage and two Supremes ascend to the Celestial stage."

Klaus chose to sacrifice one slot that could take a Supreme to the Celestial stage to ensure that his wives, who had reached the Immortal Lord stage, could ascend to the Supreme stage.

Out of the nine Demigod-to-Supreme slots, he picked Queenie, Nadia, Vida, Asha, Nari, his mom, his father, Lucy, and Vampire Queen Tifa.

Since Atomic needed an energy source to devour, he claimed he could produce more energy to raise more people every month. So he allotted these slots to the nine of them.

As for the Celestial slots, he saved one for his grandfather, Blood Demon King Alastor, while the second would be given to the Grim Judge.

It had been a debate between Runner and the Grim Judge. However, he realized just how monstrous Grim’s power was, so he gave the slot to him. Runner was already comparable to a Celestial Lord when it came to speed, so he could wait a few months.

"Klaus, what is happening?" Hunter asked, lost on what to believe.

Klaus laughed and replied, "Let’s just say the Heavens Court is about to have a rude awakening. I cannot say everything since Karma still applies to you guys, but I have seen the future, and it is very grim.

"Thankfully, I have gained a power that will allow me to strengthen myself and you guys and prepare you for what is coming. In simple terms, I need to build an army, and where better to start than my own parents and wives?"

While Klaus laughed, they only stared at him.

In the end, Queenie asked, "Won’t speeding up our breakthroughs affect us negatively?"

"No. On the contrary, it will strengthen your foundation. Unlike before, when you couldn’t return to fix your laws and domains after becoming a Supreme, this new method doesn’t have that limitation.

"So basically, aside from a firm and robust foundation, you now have the power to rework your mastery over laws and domains. Aside from that, you also gain a thousandfold increase in comprehending the Dao.

"Basically, what would normally require over 100,000 years to achieve can now be done in less than ten years. Even better, depending on your comprehension speed, you will be ready to become a Celestial in less than a year.

"And even more enticing, with me around, you will only continue deepening your foundation until you have no flaws left to fix.

"Basically, with enough time and resources, I can turn all of you into absolute warriors, beings with so much power that the heavens will tremble when you arrive on the battlefield."

Klaus may have limited himself here, but from what he had just revealed, everyone wanted to see whether he was merely bragging or if he truly had the means to do as he claimed.

Klaus saw the looks on their faces and smiled. "Pops, we can start with you. It will take only a few hours."

Hunter knew he had to trust his son, so after a few internal struggles, he nodded and stepped forward.

What Klaus was proposing wasn’t something any of them thought was possible. After all, from what they knew about cultivation, it was slow and time-consuming. Those who rushed through it later faced many obstacles.

However, Klaus had proven time and time again that when it came to him, nothing made sense. So trusting him, even if his proposal was the craziest one yet, was something Hunter knew he had to do.

Plus, if he became a Supreme, it would mean his swords would also become Supreme Weapons. That would be 45,001 Supremes in one body.

Hunter had always dreamed of the day he would become a god and a Supreme. He wished for the day he would be able to command a guillotine of Supreme and Celestial Weapons.

"I will also use this chance to turn you into an Asura Variant, Dad. I believe that when this process is complete, even Celestials will tremble before you. But for now, lets make you a supreme."

"Alright, my boy, let’s do this."
