The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse-Chapter 776: Against All Odds (9)
Standing before Klaus now were two terrifying beasts.
The spider demon was supposed to be a monster, yet standing before Klaus now were two beasts, which meant their danger level had risen by a couple of levels.
They were both at the peak of the Void stage. One would expect it to drop a level after the transformation, but they are still peak tier 11 and now beasts.
One was white, and the other black, with two long, jagged, sharp swords formed from two of their limbs. They stood on two sharp metallic legs that ended in razor-sharp claws.
Behind them, what appeared to be ten metallic limbs acting as wings could be seen hanging behind them like a halo.
Klaus knew they were like spirit weapons that could be deployed using their minds when he saw them.
Now, they each had three pairs of crimson eyes.
They were the yin and yang.
The black was the yin, and the white was the yang.
[Be careful, brat. These two beasts are what we call the dual beasts. They are born whole but are two separate entities, each having their own mind.
However, in combat, they are the perfect teammates one could have because they can read each other's thoughts and know what to do at any second.
But be more guarded against the white one.]
'Okay, senior. It's just too bad my blood is not finding resonance with these two. Having a yin and yang warrior on my side wouldn't be bad at all,' Klaus sighed as his armor started to change.
[You already have a yin and yang warrior on your side. The two ant ladies from the Ant Kingdom Forbidden Zone are the same as these two.]
'Better. I guess that it is good to know finally,' Klaus smiled, making everyone watching this battle from all over the world wonder what was wrong with him.
Before him were two monstrosities that could make anyone quake in their boots, yet here he was, smiling.
Klaus just let the armor appear like it was meant to be, covering his body in an armor made using nanotech.
It was black with red lines running through it. A mask covered his eyes and nose, with two translucent black horns sitting on his forehead.
Behind Klaus, dozens of his spirit weapons hovered, ready for action.
He extended his hand, and a large saber appeared. It then split into two, becoming more curved and sharper as he held them in both hands.
"Die," before Klaus could say anything, the white spider demon moved and appeared before him, unleashing a powerful swing, which Klaus blocked using his left saber.
He didn't have a breather, as he immediately swung his right saber, meeting the sword from the black spider demon.
The pressure from the two pressed down on Klaus, making him quickly move away using the Vanishing Step.
However, the spider demons weren't holding back, so before he could make any attempt to steady himself, two sword arcs, one black and one white, appeared, exploding before him.
The moment they did, a Taiji diagram appeared beneath Klaus, locking him in place.
"Obliterating Yin-Yang Sword," the spider demons spoke as a giant sword appeared from above. One part of the sword was black, and the other was white, and it descended with powerful pressure.
The ground beneath Klaus's feet twisted, moving in the direction of the yin-yang diagram that was tightening its hold on him.
He could feel his resistance waning, so Klaus made the next best move.
"Severance."
Up in the air, a sword that looked rusty yet contained powerful energy flashed through the air, stabbing through the giant yin-yang sword, destroying it.
The moment the sword was destroyed, Klaus moved and appeared behind the white spider demon. However, instead of attacking, he dodged an attack from the black spider demon and then vanished.
In his place, a metallic ball, about the size of a basketball, appeared. Without any warning, countless holes appeared on it.
The spider demons were too late to react as thousands of needles exploded out, piercing them in more than one place.
They were caught off guard, and Klaus used that instance to deploy one of the many spirit weapons he inherited from his past.
The moment the two spiders were caught off guard, he appeared behind the black one and unleashed a powerful attack that sent it flying back a few meters.
Then he turned to the white one, who slashed its sword back and opened the void, disappearing into it.
Klaus smirked when he saw that. Of course, he knew the white spider demon would be coming out to sneak attack, so he prepared a welcome for it.
He used his mind to send the demon-cutting discs flying in a certain direction.
The moment the discs came close to where he wanted them, they split into a thousand smaller discs, slashing the body of the white spider and drawing a few drops of blood.
A look of shock appeared on its face, feeling what had happened.
It was like using the void was useless. Klaus had a high affinity for reality and space, so using the void to sneak attack wouldn't work against him.
Klaus could feel the slightest change in the space around him even long before he inherited the space abilities from Pickle Berry.
So, with his unknown bloodline making him become one with reality and now his affinity for space energy, he is basically a bane to every assassin.
Sneaking up on him is an option.
The white spider demon let out a distorted screech, its body twitching as it struggled to stabilize itself. Crimson blood oozed from the dozens of cuts across its frame, staining its sleek, metallic-white body.
The calculated move Klaus executed right now isn't one the two monsters could compete with. His mind is 27 times faster. So calculating these moves came easily to him.
In this battle, Klaus's mind is the biggest weapon, and it's what's allowing him to stay ahead of the two beasts despite knowing they could cut him in half at any moment.
The mind is a powerful tool, and saying that isn't false at all.
The white spider demon glared at Klaus with its three pairs of crimson eyes, fury and disbelief mixing into a terrifying gaze.
Klaus didn't give it a chance to recover.
With a flick of his wrist, dozens of spirit weapons shot forward like a rain of death. Spears, blades, and arrows—each glowing faintly with spatial energy—pierced through the air toward the wounded beast.
Thanks to Pickle Berry, his spirit master class has reached a new height. He can now use spatial energy, so he was using it to coat all his spirit weapons, making them deadly in the air.
Their speeds increased thanks to space energy. For now, that's all he can do: boost the speed of the spirit weapons.
But that speed is more than enough for the Void two void stage spider demons.

Having recovered from the earlier blow, the black spider demon roared and leapt to defend its partner.
Its jagged blades swung rapidly, deflecting some of the spirit weapons.
Yet two slipped through for every one it blocked, slicing into its body. More cuts are landing on the monster's body, shocking both it and everyone else watching.
Suddenly, a distorted screech escapes the two spider demons, bringing with them a powerful pressure that pushes Klaus and his spirit weapons back.
Pierce.
An arrow fashioned from one of the metallic limbs behind the black spider pierced Klaus' chest, making him take over one of the three remaining clones.
The moment he resurrected, he activated a transformation skill.
"Falling Into Despair..." A twisted smile appeared on Klaus's face as runes began to appear all over his body.
