The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 471 Nari's New Friends

It had been a day since Klaus and Nari's situation unfolded in the outer section of the academy. Yet, word had already spread like wildfire through the inner and outer sections, taking everyone by storm.

First, most had never seen an Overlord up close before. This was a first for nearly everyone. Second, no one expected an Overlord to appear on their second day at the academy—yet it happened.

Then there was the shock of discovering that Klaus and an Overlord were friends. This revelation hit particularly hard for the haters who had come to the academy to make Klaus's life miserable.

They were forced to reconsider their plans, realizing that the Klaus they thought they knew and the Klaus they were seeing now were two very different people.

Somehow, he seemed even strange and, truth be told, much harder to oppose.

The haters had to convene for an emergency meeting to re-strategize.

As for Klaus's friends, they were all in a state of stunned disbelief.

Nia, Asha, Aoi, Lulu, Lucy, and the rest of Klaus's companions—including his sister—were utterly dumbfounded. Although they were familiar with Ohema and Miriam, this felt completely different.

Nari was widely known as an Overlord. The scary one among them is now widely known as friends with Klaus in the academy.

No one had seen that coming.

Sitting under the same pavilion where they had gathered the day before, Klaus's friends were currently talking about the shocking events that happened yesterday

"I can't believe Klaus knew the Fire Queen Nari and is even friends with her," Asha said, her voice a mix of cheer and disbelief.

"Little brother is awesome," Hanna said with a small smile. The rest of the ladies nodded in agreement. He truly was remarkable, especially for managing such a troublesome lady as his friend.

"Do you think Klaus and she are a thing?" Anna asked, making the ladies glance at each other's faces.

"I don't think so. Judging by their relationship, I'd say they're just friends. But... I don't think it's that simple. There's something deeper at play here," Lucy deduced thoughtfully.

"She did mention Klaus used her to get to her big sister. Who exactly is this big sister?" Aoi added, her reasoning immediately making the ladies pause and step back in realization.

"The only person the Fire Queen ever referred to as her sister was the leader of the Overlords. You don't think she's talking about her, do you?" Lulu asked, her tone laced with apprehension.

Anna, Lily, and Hanna, who had already pieced it together—considering Ohema had told them she was twins with the leader of the Overlords—began to smile knowingly.

Even Lucy seemed unaware of this revelation despite her connection to Ohema.

Lucy, Miriam, and Ohema were the only three women who could truly be considered Klaus's. They were the only ones who had given him their purity and had been marked with the Paragon Mark.

Yet, despite the bond, Ohema had always refrained from revealing too much to spoil certain things.

"What are you three smiling about? Spill it," Lucy demanded, narrowing her eyes at them.

Hanna and the two vixens' smiles widened mischievously. But just as they were about to speak, the air around them cracked open, and a striking red-haired beauty stepped through the fissure.

The moment she appeared, the atmosphere fell silent. Conversations ceased, and all eyes turned to her.

Nari stopped, her gaze sweeping over them before she smiled—a smile filled with unspoken meanings.

"Don't mind me. Go on with your mingling," she said lightly.

With that, she walked gracefully toward the pavilion where Lucy and the ladies gathered, commanding their attention.

Eyes followed her every step as she walked toward Lucy and her group of fairies.

"Ladies, how are you all doing?" Nari greeted the moment she stepped into the pavilion. She carried herself with ease, and like any ordinary woman, she sat gracefully beside Hanna.

"You ladies are Klaus's women, huh? Not bad. I knew I picked the right one for my sister," Nari said with a smile, wrapping an arm casually around Hanna.

"You're his big sister, right?"

In those three sentences, neither Lucy nor her group managed to respond. They sat frozen in stunned silence.

The reason? An Overlord was sitting among them, and the entire academy's focus had now shifted squarely onto their group. It was overwhelming.

As they remained speechless, caught between awe and disbelief, Nari seemed to relish the reactions on their faces.

"Relax, ladies," she said with a soft chuckle.

"You're all Klaus's women, which makes me like a big sister to you. Feel free to call me Nari, but if you prefer, 'Big Sister Nari' works too. Now, can I know your names?"

Her words seemed to snap them back to reality, pulling them out of their daze.

"I am Lucy."

"I am Aoi."

"I am Anna."

"

"

"

"I am Hanna."

"Nice to meet you all. As I mentioned earlier, I am Nari. And yes, I am an Overlord, but don't mind that. In my heart, I see myself as just Nari. The Overlord part is merely a title people gave me.

That said, now that I have chosen Klaus as the husband of my big sister, we will all be friends from now on. This means we can talk about normal things like sisters and friends do." Nari said with a smile.

"When you say husband for your big sister, are you talking about the leader of the Overlords, the Battle Demon, Queenie?" Lucy asked, her voice strained.

"Well, duh." Nari smiled, but her response left the other ladies frozen in place.

Queenie was known as the Battle Demon, a title earned from her ferocity on the battlefield.

It was said that during the early days of the apocalypse, her mere presence sent waves of terror, even among the monsters and zombies who dared not approach her. Read exclusive adventures at My Virtual Library Empire

Despite her elegant and petite appearance, Queenie's aura while wielding her sword was enough to make hearts tremble in fear.

"Relax, ladies. Queenie is actually a friendly person. She may seem uptight and cold at first, but once you get to know her, you'll fall in love with her.

"I'm here to let you know that Klaus is fine and will return tomorrow. Of course, I also wanted to meet you all and become friends with you.

I hope you don't mind my presence."

The Nari speaking now was completely different from the one Klaus knew. While both had a childish air about them, this one was much calmer—unlike the other, who had burned his shirt simply because he failed to call her.

The ladies took some time to calm down. But after their shock, they started to warm up to the idea of having an Overlord as their friend and big sister.

This, of course, means those who are jealous of them start to seeth in anger. Because of Klaus, an Overlord has become friends with those they are jealous of and want to wipe out.

They wouldn't be able to do anything anymore. With Nari's presence, they wouldn't be able to do much.

Most started to rethink their approaches, knowing they wouldn't be able to touch Klaus and his pals for the next few months.

But as to whether Klaus would touch them, only the stars can tell.
