The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse Chapter 1729: Asura Key Awakening

Getting Hermina to come with them was surprisingly easy.

She had nowhere to go, and since she would probably be hunted down by the person who wanted her as their slave, she knew she needed a place to hide out.

Luckily for her, Queenie and her sisters needed her help. Initially, she never expected them to come all this way just because she could help them. In her mind, they helped her because they wanted to.

But it turns out she is much more important to them than she gave herself credit for.

She wasn’t useless after all.

Learning she holds the key to bringing back one of the most dreadful legions this universe has ever seen, she became a bit happy.

At least the promise she made to her family wouldn’t be for nothing. She would be a part of something that, as Queenie said, might as well determine the fate of the universe.

Aside from that, she agreed to become a part of them because of how safe she felt around Kalynda and Aster. The two ladies had been in her shoes, deciding whether to believe Queenie and her sisters.

It took some time, but they did believe them, and now, they are happy.

Hermina had joined them, and with that, they were set to go to the place where the gateway that led to the pocket universe, where the Asura race had been transported a couple of eras ago, would be opened.

But before that would happen, they first had to awaken the three Asura Keys.

Queenie had everyone except Vida and Tifa transported into Asha’s Insect Domain. Tifa and Vida were in charge of taking them from the Beast Universe and back to the Human Universe, where they would finally bring back the Asura race.

The location for that is somewhere in the Human Universe.

So they were on the outside, and the rest had entered the Insect Domain.

"The awakening is very simple. I will give you a drop of my blood, and you will swallow it. Once that happens, your consciousness will be transported to a realm where you will have to bind your souls with the Key.

This means by the time this is done, you three will become Asura Borns with powers far beyond anything you have ever imagined. If you are ready, we can start."

Aster, Kalynda and Hermina looked at each other, then they nodded.

"We are ready."

Queenie smiled and flicked her hand, summoning the droplets of her blood.

She gestured forward, and the three droplets moved, each going to one of the three ladies. They all opened their mouths, and the droplets of blood fell inside, getting swallowed instantly.

The moment that happened, a wave of foreign energy that only Queenie recognised flowed out of their bodies. A few seconds later, they were cocooned, each cocoon radiating intense blood qi.

"Looks like it won’t be long before they awaken," Queenie said before turning to her sister. "We should start preparing for when we get to the place. I am sure it will be infested by some of the most dreadful calamity beasts in the universe."

They nodded, each aware of where they would have to go and why they had to be ready.

The Grim Calamity Valley isn’t a place just about anyone would dare go. In fact, it is one of the most dreadful places in the universe. So going there would be extremely dangerous.

Luckily for them, they all possess abilities far more dangerous than most Celestials in the universe.

"Rest assured, Queenie, we will be getting the Asura Race home no matter what obstacles lay before us," Lucy assured her sister, who smiled and nodded.

"Question though, when the Asura Race returns, where would they stay?" Lily asked.

Ohema, Queenie’s twin sister, smiled and answered, "I have already tasked my people with renovating Beta Earth while we were away. I am sure by now they are done making sure it is ready for people to live on."

A few months before the Planet Awakening, Jane managed to locate a planet not that far from Earth. This planet is similar to Earth, except that half of it is made of ice, and the other half is perfect for mortals to live on.

During the awakening, the non-warriors were transported there.

However, since Earth was now safe from all danger, Ohema decided to renovate it for the Asura Race’s return.

It was large enough to accommodate them and close to Earth, so even if Earth were threatened one day, it would have one of the most dangerous races in the universe protecting it.

"But would it be big enough for them all? I am sure that after years in seclusion, the Asura Race might have expanded to a size far larger than it was back then."

"That is not a problem. Beta Earth isn’t the only planet we are renovating. There are five others, three of which are about 40 times Earth’s size. The plan is to make sure the planets surrounding Earth are protected, so even if Beta Earth isn’t large enough for them, we have other planets."

"You have solutions for everything, don’t you?" Queenie said, wrapping her right arm around Ohema’s shoulder.

"I wouldn’t be the richest person on Earth if I didn’t have insightful thinking abilities. I always see the problem several steps ahead of most."

Her sisters couldn’t help but nod.

They had seen how she solved her problems. Sometimes, she handled the problem several steps faster than one would have if they were in her shoes.

So, seeing as she had already made plans for the Asura Race, one could only wonder what else she had planned and when she wished to reveal it.

For now, however, they’ve gathered the three Asura Keys, who are much closer to awakening, and they have a place to keep the Asura Race when they return to the universe.

The only thing left is how to get to their destination and use the Keys to open the gateway. Perhaps they would figure that one out when the time was right.

Even if they can’t handle it, Klaus wouldn’t sit and watch them fail. Who knows, maybe he had already planned for this.
