The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 465 The Most Fear Disciple

Back in his life as Fruity, Klaus was a mischievous monk. Back then, his mother and Haniva sacrificed themselves to send him away, where he was taken in by a group of monks.

He grew up with them and was very happy around them. He had hundreds of uncle monks to play with.

He called them Uncle Monks because that was what they said he should call them. Though he knew some of them by their names.

His life was good. But while he was close with all the monks, he was closest to one of them.

This one was none other than his Uncle Monk. Of course, he called them Uncle Monk, but this one held a special place in his heart. He had been with him daily while growing up in the monastery.

He practically raised him. This means he was the one who endured Fruity's (Klaus's) mischievousness the most.

He was with him when he awakened his ice element. He was also there when the Lightning Valley attacked the monastery for his head because he awakened a forbidden Ice.

Unfortunately for this particular Uncle Monk, he died during the battle. The attack that nearly killed Fruity was the same attack that took his life.

Back then, Fruity was very angry, but his uncle was already dead. He was sure of that since he had seen his body before it vanished into the ice world.

He missed him dearly, even after many reincarnations.

So, watching a carbon copy of his Uncle Monk appear again in this life; his emotions flared up a bit.

Of course, he quickly took hold of his emotions and wiped his tears, ensuring no one noticed. But Nari and the bald man saw it.

"Dean, glad you are here," Head Instructor Victor said with a relieved sigh. The bald fellow who appeared was the Dean of the entire academy.

He was a middle-aged man with a bald head and handsome features. Clearly, he has a monk class, which explains why he looks and dresses like a monk.

"Overlord Nari, good to see you again," the Dean said respectfully.

"Good to see you too, Old Lu," Nari replied teasingly.

"So, you still haven't changed, huh? The same old troublemaker, I see," the Dean said, his tone suggesting he was all too familiar with her antics.

In truth, Dean Lufy was her headmaster back in high school, years before the apocalypse descended. They were very familiar with each other.

"What do you think, Old Lu? Do you want to employ me?" Nari asked with a teasing smile. This smile, while it appeared cute and playful, carried an undertone that made every disciple watching her shudder.

She is crazy—that much is certain.

Klaus stood beside her, her arms wrapped around his neck. His ladies and friends were looking at him in shock. Of course, they seemed to have a better handle than Nia and the newcomers.

Anna and the rest had already met and lived with an Overlord-level existence and knew far more than the average human.

So they seem to be handling things well. Even though Klaus said nothing about his time in stone Valley, they aren't surprised he has an Overlord as his friend.

The only friend who seems to have a good handle on him.

"Of course, you are welcome to come and lecture here. But are you sure? You were always busy in the past when I asked," Dean Lufy said.

"That was because I was indeed busy. But not anymore. I have much more free time now," Nari replied with a smile, squeezing Klaus's neck.

"Okay then. I'll have a place ready for you to stay," Dean Lufy said, locking eyes with Klaus, who was looking back at him.

For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity, kinship, and guardianship as he looked at Klaus. This made him want to get closer to him, but he held himself back. There would be opportunities in the future.

Of course, while he was able to keep himself calm, Klaus was on a different wavelength.

Luckily, Nari wasn't letting him go, which prevented him from flying toward Dean Lufy and hugging him. That was what he wanted to do at the very moment, even forgetting about what was happening for a moment.

The talk about her accommodation was, of course, just the dean being polite. Nari could come and go as she pleased, as he was one of the few who knew the top of the mountain was the residence of the Overlords.

"You don't have to worry about where I will stay, Old Lu. I'll just stay with this brat. Just have someone add another bed to his room. I won't be sleeping on the same bed as this pervert."

"Tsk, as if anyone would want to sleep on the same bed as you," Klaus smirked, which made Dean Lu see him in a new light. It even fueled his zeal to approach him.

So far, Klaus was the only one who could joke around with Nari without her going berserk. Even Queenie can't boost that.

From time to time, aside from Nari one-sidedly making her life miserable, she couldn't do anything to her for fear she would go crazy and cause trouble.

Nari is not all rainbow and sunshine.

Old Lu could only smile at the two troublemakers. Of course, he welcomes it. He wants to get close to Klaus.

In fact, he had been holding himself back since the first time he saw Klaus's photo.

"Then that settles it. I'll be staying with you. And don't worry, I won't stand in your way of having fun with your cute little women." Nari smiled at Nia and the other ladies in Klaus's life.

"Dean, isn't this against the rules? An instructor can't live with a disciple, right?" Klaus decided to change his stance on the whole arrangement of staying with her.

It would be fine if she just appeared to lecture and then left. Staying with him is akin to sending him to Alcatraz.

Of course, the dean wasn't about to let Klaus bring him down with him. Just like everyone, he is scared of Nari.

"We will make this exception for the academy's sake. Of course, we will compensate you for your generosity."

"For my generosity? Uncle Monk—I mean Dean, this is not acceptable. This woman is crazy." Klaus was practically pleading for help, but things didn't seem to be going his way.

Queenie had warned him, but he hadn't listened. Nari was too childish, much like her sister Lucil. So, while Klaus's failure to call her made her angry, she also wanted to spend more time with him and conveniently used the situation as an excuse to shirk her duties as an Overlord.

"Don't worry, Disciple Klaus, I will personally compensate you." The dean smiled before glancing at Head Instructor Victor. "Make sure his room is arranged to accommodate two people."

With that, he opened a rift and left. As a peak Transcendent, using the void to travel long distances was a trivial task for him.

"I am cooked," Klaus muttered with a forced smile, glancing at the head instructor.

"Just because I have more apples in my fridge doesn't mean I stole them. I'm just saying."

Head Instructor Victor smiled knowingly, understanding Klaus's metaphor.

Suddenly, Klaus was lifted off the ground and started soaring into the air.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Klaus wriggled, trying to escape the grip of the crazy fire lady.

"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm taking you to see Big Sister. She misses you but too shy to come here herself. Of course, she could secretly kidnap you, but I don't want her doing the dirty work."

Klaus sighed, glancing back toward his ladies. "I'll be back as soon as I'm free of this crazy fire la—" He didn't even finish his sentence before the space around them cracked, and they vanished into the rift.

Every disciple stared upward, frozen, only snapping out of their daze once the rift closed. Anna and Klaus's friends quickly went to check on the four ladies, who were still in shock from what had just occurred.

Asha, Nia, Aoi, and Lulu were gently led to sit down and calm their nerves. The Overlord appearing like that, treating a disciple so casually and warmly, was beyond shocking.

And it wasn't just them. The eight haters were equally dumbfounded. For the next hour, they couldn't even take a single step.

Just like that, Klaus had inadvertently become the most feared disciple in the academy.
