Among the 600-plus warriors surrounding Klaus, he had noted down 25 who posed a great risk to his life. Twenty were Death Stage warriors, and the five were Life Stage warriors.
Klaus and the Paragon System (Icon) saw these 25 as the most dangerous warriors he had to pay close attention to. Even the five Life Stage warriors were much more dangerous than the dozens of Death Stage warriors not on his list.
He had already killed two of the Death Stage warriors.
One was Tahl, the so-called Flame Lord. He was 20th on his list...
The second was Gorren, whom Klaus had just killed using the whip. He was 19th on the list.
However, even after killing him, Klaus knew he had to be careful. The one he had just killed was reckless...
Klaus purposely baited him into unleashing that sword attack.
Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't have used that. However, Klaus found a way to make him angry, and in that unfocused state, he used one of the three sonic weapons Icon had selected for him.
