Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Days passed swiftly as everyone prepared for the promised date.

Lux was able to step on the Ranks of an S-Ranker after gathering an extreme amount of Beast Cores from Barbatos Academy, Fynn Kingdom, Espoir Frieden, the Crystal Palace, and the Necromancer's Ancestral Lands.

Something like this had never happened in the past, and it was truly unprecedented.

A Half-Elf, who was only about eighteen years old, had accomplished multiple feats that no ordinary person could pull off.

All of his Named Creatures and members of his Covenant had also increased their ranks.

For they shared his attributes and grew with him as he became stronger.

With the exception of Avernus, Diablo, and the others had now all become Empyrean Ranked Alpha Monsters.

He had done everything within his power, and now he stood on the ramparts of Barbatos Academy, looking at the setting sun with a calm expression on his face.

Keane and Gerhart stood beside him.

They had trained hard for this day, and even the green-haired Half-Elf had temporarily set aside his quarrel with the Elven Kingdom and chose to fight by Lux's side in this battle that would descend upon Elysium and Solais.

Alexander, Vera, Maximilian, Keane's Master, and two old men stood side by side.

These two old men were the two reclusive Saints of the Six Kingdoms, with the oldest of them being the Founder of Barbatos Academy.

Kean's Master, whom people simply referred to as Void or The Void was a Pseudo-Saint.

Although he still hadn't stepped onto the Saint Rank, his techniques and fighting prowess were equivalent to one.

"To think that a day would come when we would have to rely on the children to help us overcome a calamity," the oldest Saint in the group said with a sigh. "The times have changed."

The other Saints could only nod their heads in agreement with his words.

The six of them were the strongest people within the Six Kingdoms, and yet, the one whom they were depending on was a Half-Elf who was only about to turn eighteen.

They found this quite humbling, but they were very glad that Lux chose to stay in Solais to help defend the Six Kingdoms from a possible invasion.

Aside from the soldiers and other fighters, everyone was evacuated to the underground shelters that had been expanded under Barbatos Academy.

Iris, Cai, and Aurora were also in the shelter, and they would serve as the last line of defense, in case things went south.

If an Abyssal Gate were to appear within the Six Kingdoms, Lux, Keane, Gerhart, Alexander, and Maximilian would move forward and kill as many Abyssal Creatures as they could.

Vera, the Barbarian Saint, as well as the Old Man who was the founder of Barbatos Academy, would stay to defend the fort and ensure that the people would be safe from harm.

Maeve and Hana stood behind Lux as they gazed at the sun that was slowly sinking beneath the horizon.

Just as the last rays of light were about to disappear, they felt it.

A powerful fluctuation rippled near the Barbarian Territory, which meant that an Abyssal Gate was spawning in that direction.

Without another word, Lux summoned Avernus.

He and the rest of the vanguard jumped on the Dracolich's back as they headed toward the Abyssal Gate in haste.

"Hyper Drive!" Hana shouted as she opened a Spatial Gate that would allow Avernus to travel at great speed and reach the location where the Abyssal Gate had spawned.

Hana had prepared several Anchors within the Six Kingdoms, allowing her to instantly teleport anyone who was part of their group with ease.

As soon as they arrived, they saw a fifty-meter-tall Purple Portal that emitted an otherworldly presence.

Without any hesitation, Lux summoned his Undead Legion, his Covenant, as well as all the Calamity-Ranked Beasts that were currently with him.

After splitting his forces to help his allies, Lux only had a little more than sixty Calamity-Ranked Monsters under his command.

Each of them was emitting a powerful Aura that boosted the morale of their group.

Aside from them, there was one more Monster that stood at the forefront of Lux's Calamity-Ranked Monsters.

This Monster was a Demigod Monster that Lux had created using the body of Andras, who once tried to invade the 13th Layer of the Abyss with the intention of making Queen Rhiannon his woman.

After using the Undead Generator Skill, a Unique Monster was created.

It was a Strigoi.

One of the most bloodthirsty Undead in existence, and their sole purpose was to kill everything that stood in their way.

Strigois were vampires, but the one that Lux created was more similar to a Werewolf.

Even so, it didn't matter.

What he needed was a killing machine, and he got what he wanted.

A Demigod, who was not only deadly and fast but also became stronger the more it drank the blood of its victims, increasing its vitality.

Thousands of Undead Monsters rose from the ground as the Half-Elf planted a dozen Tombstones that spawned an infinite number of Elder Zombies and Mummies as long as they remained erected.

As if waiting for that cue, countless Abyssal Demons and Monsters emerged from the portal en masse.

These Demons thought that after crossing over to the other side of the Abyss, they would be able to lay waste on the helpless people who wouldn't be prepared for their invasion.

Unfortunately for them, not only was everyone aware of their plans, but they had also made adequate preparations in order to thwart them.

"Kill!" Lux ordered and, immediately, the Lich Revenants and the Skeleton Nightstalkers unleashed a deadly volley of death upon the enemies, instantly killing the weaker Abyssal Monsters.

A chaotic riot unfolded, but everyone knew that this was just the beginning of the true battle that was about to unfold.

Elysium…

The Dragon King, Azza, unleashed his Dragon Breath, decimating all the monsters that were crossing over from the portal.

These pitiful Monsters turned into ashes before they could even do anything.

"Everyone, give them hell!" Azza ordered.

Behind him, countless Dragons unleashed their Dragon Breath towards the portal with the intention of destroying it.

However, they all knew that this was impossible.

But they did this for a reason.

The Abyssal Gate wasn't a one-way thing. Just like the creatures that were able to cross over to their world, the denizens of Elysium and Solais could cross over to their side as well, bringing the battle into the Abyss.

However, they didn't do that.

Instead, they intended to annihilate anything that was behind the Purple Portal about to intrude upon their world.

While the Dragons were able to gain the upper hand in their battlefield, some places weren't that lucky.

In the North-Western Region of Elysium, Nyarlathotep was having the time of his life.

After crossing through the portal, he found himself in the Kingdom of Halflings, who didn't make enough preparations for the upcoming war.

This was one of the Kingdoms who had snubbed Seraphina's worldwide announcement, refusing to believe her warnings.

Because of this, their Capital City easily fell because their defenders were not concentrated in one place.

But, even if they had prepared…

Even if they had heeded Seraphina's warnings, the possibility of them winning against the Outer God, Nyarlathotep, was slim.

"Hahaha!" The Outer God laughed as he used his power to manipulate all the people in the city, turning them all into crazed mortals whose madness knew no bounds.

He made them all fight against and kill each other.

Fathers killing their children.

Wives killing their husbands.

It was a maddening scene, and Nyarlathotep's crazed laughter drowned out the cries of the Halflings whom he forced to witness the destruction that he orchestrated.

"More!" Nyarlathotep shouted. "Suffer more! Sacrifice yourselves in my name!"

The Outer God's madness was infectious, turning all the Abyssal Creatures that had accompanied him to Elysium into sadistic monsters, who wanted nothing more than to see destruction reign supreme.
