"This is KKKickinIt with Controversial News! Folks, the day we've all been waiting for has finally come. I don't know about y'all, but I am damn excited! Let me give a quick recap for those who don't know what I'm talking about." Everyone had their devices active on social media as they watched their favorite gossip channel.
For many who preferred to stay updated on the latest gossip in town, Controversial News was their go-to source. Even the leader of the Overlords was a fan.
They had connections almost everywhere, so even the smallest details or rumors, no matter how blown out of proportion, always found their way to their front desk. Today, they decided to go big.
"A couple of months ago, Max Duncan, the Devil Archer, challenged Klaus Hanson to a duel, which, if y'all remember, was a total disgrace to a whole legacy. Klaus completely destroyed him."
"However, when Klaus was asked to say a few words, his comments went a little too far, insulting the legacies in the process. This enraged them greatly, and as legacies, they decided to use their titles to ban Klaus from entering Union City, where the final trial for the Celestial Mountain Academy would be held.
"They only demanded that Klaus go down on his knees and apologize before they would lift the ban. But as always, Klaus replied in an even more arrogant tone, calling them "clowns"—his word, not mine.
"We all waited for any news on the event, but as it stands, aside from Klaus kicking their asses a few weeks ago at the Genius Gathering in Sinji Valley, nothing else has been reported.
"However, folks, Klaus Hanson, the daring Klaus, the handsome, has just made a post that sent the internet into yet another shockwave. In his post, Klaus wrote only six words: "On my way to Union City."
"Now, I don't have to tell you what this means; I think you all have a fair idea. From the reports I'm receiving, it seems the situation in Union City is about to get heated. I want to see some blood; you want to see some blood.
"So why don't you stick around? The next few hours will be lively. Once again, this is KKKickinIt with Controversial News! I'm out!
"Tsk, this lady seems to exaggerate things, but I like her style," Klaus said, putting his phone away.
They had just taken off from the Ross Mansion a few minutes ago and were now headed to the one place he wasn't invited to.
Max, Ethan, and Ella, despite the lesson Klaus had put them through a few weeks ago, still didn't seem to be taking the hint. In fact, Klaus received a report from someone who called themselves The_5th_Knight.
According to the report, the airports were now under surveillance, so the moment he landed, the legacies would know and take action. Klaus, of course, just shrugged off the report.
Like always, he didn't care. If they wanted to fight, he would be ready for them. Especially now that he had awakened the Slaughter Aura, he wanted to see its effect in combat.
However, like in every villain arc, despite their nightmares, they weren't about to sit idly by and let Klaus have his way. They had made preparations; all that was left was for Klaus to set foot in Union City.
"Have you made provisions?" Ella asked, turning to Ethan.
"Yes. The Triple Zero Mercenary Group will disguise themselves and blend in with the guards. If they get the chance, they'll land a killing blow," Ethan responded, a hint of satisfaction in his tone.
"Good. I don't want any mistakes, so make sure the guards under big sister are ready" Ella said, her voice steady and commanding.
The "big sister" she referred to was one of the legacies who had entered the academy alongside Lucy two years ago. During the last assessment, she had challenged Lucy to a duel but lost spectacularly, igniting a deep-seated hatred toward her rival.
Now that Lucy was dating Klaus, that animosity had extended to Klaus. She wanted to thwart his progress using her sibling's rivalry with him.
Ella had ensured that her sister's troops were deployed, each soldier sworn to protect their legacy's interests. The legacies each commanded their own soldiers, forming mini-armies loyal solely to them.
Fueled by their collective hatred for Klaus, they had mobilized all available forces, even hiring additional mercenaries for this purpose.
Clearly, they aimed to end Klaus once and for all.
"Let's just sit back and watch as Klaus Hanson comes crashing down," Ella said coldly, sipping her drink as a satisfied smirk spread across her face.

The distance from Ross City to Union City was quite far, so it took Klaus and his pals six hours to get there. As soon as they entered Union City, Klaus's friends tensed. The plan was simple: they would stay in the jet while he dealt with their guest.
As expected, the moment the jet landed and Klaus stepped out, a voice spoke, sounding very disdainful.
"Klaus Hanson, you are not welcome in Union City. Turn around and leave, or else we will be forced to use force." Find exclusive stories on empire
"My, my, I am so scared," Klaus smirked, making the hundreds of soldiers before him frown in anger. Killing intent immediately filled the air.
