Obviously, none of the seven people on the ship with Klaus and Maud expected the god butcher to be Klaus's subordinate.

He is a legend.

In the vast universe, once a person reaches the Immortal stage, killing them becomes difficult. Just like what happened to Kilian, whose body was destroyed, yet he lived, Immortals can live only with their soul spirits.

Once they reach the Immortal stage, their soul spirits upgrade and become an Immortal soul. This makes them super strong and hard to kill.

To kill them, one needs powerful Immortal qi, powerful Immortal domains, and the right conditions to be able to kill them. If these conditions are not met, killing an Immortal is not easily achievable.

Their bodies can die, but their Immortal souls can escape and later reform their bodies. Of course, reforming a body after it is destroyed has some backlash on the warrior.

However, while all this was in favor of warriors, one day, a warrior appeared whose sword was powerful enough to kill both the body and soul in a single clash.

Nobody knew where he came from or what his agenda was, but his presence shattered the norm. He is someone to be feared, and many did.

Klaus's parents would be lying if they said they were not afraid of Gorr.

Someone whom the gods even run from—how can they not fear him?

Some even say that when Gorr reaches godhood, Supremes and Celestials will be his next targets. So they are scared, and Klaus can see it on their faces.

"Chill, everyone. Gorr is a cool guy. I have known him for generations already. He doesn't hurt allies, and he most certainly wouldn't hurt my own parents and uncles.

If anything, you all should prepare because, knowing him, he would like to suck up to you so that I will finally allow him to become a god. But please, don't fall for that.

That bastard is being punished for failing to kill a certain god when I needed him dead the most, so until I am satisfied, he will remain a demigod."

Klaus laughed.

Before the awakening, Magnus gave Klaus something.

This thing was something he could use three times to do the impossible. It is like three wishes of some kind that Klaus could use, but at a cost.

Naturally, wishing for the awakening never to happen or for them to win hands down was out of the picture. That would cost a lot. Of course, even if he could pay, the damage would have been unbearable.

It wasn't worth it. In a way, letting the awakening happen and allowing the humans to fight for their world was necessary. Thanks to that, they've become a race of heaven-defiers.

So Klaus used the three wishes on something else.

The first wish was to remember something that would allow him to strike the heavens where it hurts the most. That was when he received memories of Gorr, the god butcher.

This time, he received memories of their meeting in his life as the Paragon of Shadows.

Gorr was a farmer and a father who loved his daughter more than anything.

He is the kind of father who will go to extreme lengths to ensure his daughter is safe from harm and well cared for.

This was why, when the great disease finally reached his world, he tried everything to make sure his daughter was safe.

He used all means to look for ways to protect her, even going as far as sacrificing all he could to the gods to come to his aid.

However, they never did. They ignored him when he needed them the most.

This was why, when his daughter was at her death's door, he cried and cursed the heavens for their cruelty and wished that someday, somebody would bring them down and make them experience helplessness.

Unbeknownst to Gorr, his wish had generated the power of faith, which aided a certain demigod in a battle he was about to lose. His faith in his words gave this person the urge he needed to survive.

Thanks to him, the Paragon of Shadows survived an ambush he never saw coming. So, he sought him out.

When they met, his daughter was almost gone. However, Klaus's incarnation at the time, Velkhan, saved her. Thanks to this act of compassion, Gorr vowed to forever serve him in any way he could.

Coincidentally, Velkhan was looking for a mortal with no spiritual qi in them to wield the Necrosword, a weapon the first Paragon forged from his own bone.

Thus, the legend of Gorr, the one who would rise to become someone even gods would fear, was born.

He hated the heavens deeply, and so his hatred became the energy that fueled his determination to keep rising and keep slaughtering.

Every generation, Gorr will come out and perform a massacre, then go silent again.

For generations, he had caused great havoc, and all that was thanks to a certain Paragon who had started planning to strike the heavens where it hurts the most since the Primordial Era.

"Remember, Gorr is a funny but scary guy. He is one of my most trusted subordinates, so if you need anything —anything at all —don't hesitate to ask him.

Trust me, he is very resourceful. Also, Uncles, try to consult him on how to kill gods before attempting to form your Law Core.

He has killed hundreds of gods, so he knows intimately how to do it. Learning from him will enable you to form Law Cores that can easily aid you in fighting against even gods."

"Okay, Klaus. We will be sure to seek guidance from Senior Gorr."

"Good. Also, don't allow him to boss you around. He is a weak one, so he may try to act tough when he hears you call him Senior. In fact, don't add Senior to it."

The five uncles and Klaus' parents laughed. They could see Klaus hold Gorr in high esteem. This made them relax and know that accepting Gorr's generosity was the best thing for them now.

Klaus turned to his mom and smiled. "When you get to the Beast Empire, try not to miss me too much. I am fine and will be fine as long as I have my wives and friends. So don't worry about me, okay."

There is no way she could not worry about him. She is his mother, and so she could only worry about him.

"I will try my best," she smiled, knowing full well she would cry every evening.

"Good enough." Klaus turned to his father, who was looking at him with a calm expression but proud eyes. He was happy and proud of how his son had turned out.

"Protect them for me, Pops, especially Mom. She is a fragile one despite her trying to look tough."

"Ouch."

"Who are you calling fragile? Just so you know, I am no longer the same human who couldn't even lift a sword. I am now a demigod who has even killed a god before, so put some respect on my name," Elysia pouted.

"Sure, Mom. I believe you," Klaus grinned.

His mom smirked and turned away from her hateful son, who always liked to tease her. Klaus, his father, and the uncles laughed as they watched this.

"Don't worry, Klaus, I will protect her. I am the great Mad Hunter, after all..."

"Yeah... Mad Hunter, the great demigod. If a single hair on her head is touched while under your protection, Gorr will visit you in your dreams."

"Ouch."
