"I am done," Kent said, setting down the last Hypnotic Illusion Star.
He had been at it for hours now. Thankfully, he wasn't alone during the process. His ladies were there, giving him all the support he needed.
Now, he had one for every one of his women, lovers, friends, their girlfriends, and even Kofi.
He had recovered, but he was in seclusion training.
Though the attack was from someone he had no business fighting against, it seemed to affect him somehow. So, he was getting over it through training.
He will be receiving one of the Crystals...
Now, all they had to do was inject their energy into it, and they would be pulled into the illusion—where a day inside was just an hour outside. This would let them train and face whatever they had to without worrying about time.
However, this would also mean their stress and fatigue would be multiplied severalfold when they woke up.
"You ladies won't have to worry about entering now. I'm not done with any of you, so for now, I'll hold on to these crystals," Klaus said, storing away the crystals. He stood up and stretched.
"Asha dear, why don't we spend some time together so you can show me how amazing you are," Kent said. Astra quickly abandoned the two vixens beside her and latched onto Kent's hand.
"This bitch," Anna glared at the traitor who had so easily abandoned them. They had been planning to steal Klaus from the ladies today so they could spend some time with him in preparation for their coming night with him.
However, when the chance presented itself, Asha abandoned them.
Asha just stuck out her tongue and teasingly flicked it at the ladies, who clenched their fists and started plotting their revenge.
"See you ladies later," Kent said, walking away with Asha in his arms.
Klaus and Asha began exploring the majestic valley, making sure they had some of the best time together. It was like they were two friends walking about.
Their energy levels were in sync, considering Asha was the loudmouth of the group. She didn't shy away from cursing anyone.
When Klaus first met her at the academy, everyone instantly hated her when she single-handedly cursed at Hunter Duncan and his team.
Now, she was all over Klaus, even stopping at some points just to share a kiss. She wanted to devour him despite them being in public. This, of course, caused many to raise eyebrows at their public display of affection.
But after all, they were just two young adults who wanted to share some intimate moments together.
After exploring the valley for a while, they returned to the hotel, where she and Klaus found themselves in a room. Nothing freaky happened, but she was sleeping on his chest, staring at him.
"Promise me you won't think I'm weird after knowing my secrets," she suddenly spoke, making Klaus raise an eyebrow.
"I can't promise anything, but know that no matter how weird it is, you are still my beautiful Asha," Klaus responded.
"You..." Asha playfully punched his chest, making Klaus smile. "You are definitely going to think I'm weird."
She exhaled and then stood up.
"If you tease me, I will make sure you regret it later," she pouted and waved her hand. Suddenly, a brown door with intricate drawings appeared inside the room.
Klaus was taken aback, but he had expected something .
Nothing was known about Asha—not even the sect elders knew. Aside from Old Lu, nobody had any idea what kind of monster she was.
Of course, she also didn't want people to know, so she kept it hidden and portrayed herself as a summoner who only summoned three powerful ants. That was all even her sister, Nia, knew about her class.
Now, the door appeared, and Klaus could tell it was much bigger than anyone would have thought. He stood up and walked toward Asha.
"So, your class also has a realm like Nadia's," Klaus said, and Asha nodded.
"I am an insect cultivator, and this door leads to my Insect Domain, where I work to grow, modify, and, to some extent, create my own insects."
Asha said, showing some pride in her words. Klaus smiled and patted her head, "Nice one, little girl."
"Who are you calling a little girl? In case you don't know, I have the power to bring down the alliance you fought a week ago."
"Sure," Kent smirked.
"I am telling the truth," Asha, who saw Klaus's expression, said, but Klaus just nodded, making her grow irritated.
"I hope you maintain your smug expression after you see my insect army," she pouted before opening the door. Klaus just smiled, watching her expression.
He was teasing her, but the insect doctor seemed much more serious about impressing him. If that was the case, then he would just see for himself.
They entered the opened door. It was as simple as walking through an open door. The moment they entered, the first thing Klaus saw was a large forge made from strange-looking metals.
It was very large and surrounded by seven pillars, each with different kinds of runes carved into them.
"Alpha, Queen, Emperor, Monarch, Demon, Divine, General," Klaus spoke the words as if he were the one who wrote them there.
This caused Asha to look at him with widened eyes. "You can read those words?" she asked, her eyes burning for an immediate answer.
"Yeah. Those are just ancient runes; I don't even have to think before saying them," Klaus bragged, but he knew it was all thanks to his [Universal Enigma] passive skill.
"Then come." Asha grabbed his hand and began leading him closer to the forge, which looked more like a basin sitting on a furnace.
They stopped a couple of steps away from the forge, and Asha pointed at a bunch of writings. "Translate that for me," Asha requested, and Klaus nodded.
"The eternal forge of the Insect Supreme. The first and the largest forge said to hold the power to create seven categories of insects and arachnids.
It has the power to create any form of insect you can design. With materials acting as sacrifice and blood from life as an authority, create the first-of-a-kind insects that will all be under your control."
Klaus read the writings, and Asha's smile bloomed. But her smile faded when she realized there was no explanation for using it...
She only heard how it works but not how to activate it...
