Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

It took the Alliance one week to hurry and reach Espoir Frieden.

Some of them were relieved to see that their loved ones were alive, while some cried bitter tears after finding out that their family members were among the casualties of the battle.

But their bitterness disappeared when they saw their loved ones, who had been turned into Undead by Asmodeus and his Undead Mages.

Due to the power of the World Tree, the souls of the people who had died had temporarily taken shelter near its body, preventing them from being sucked into the Abyss.

When Lux arrived, these souls returned to their bodies, which he had raised from the dead to help fight against the Abominations, who had ended their lives.

Although they were now Undead, the mere fact that they could still talk and communicate with their families was a blessing in itself.

Asmodeus was now a Demigod-Ranked Monster, so his abilities to reanimate the dead had also been upgraded. As long as twelve hours hadn't passed after the person had died, he would be able to bring their soul back to their bodies and allow them to be born again as Sentient Undeads.

After their bittersweet reunions, plans were made for the final battle that would take place in the Abyss.

This was only possible thanks to Lux's, Eiko's, and Aurora's help.

Eiko could make everyone fly in the sky, allowing them to travel the path that Aurora would guide them to take.

Since Aurora had been reborn as a Transcended Succubus in the Abyss, her connection with that world was very strong.

Also, because she had grasped the path that James had taken on their return trip to Elysium, she was able to point Eiko in the right direction.

Lux, on the other hand, had the Golden Locket. He could create a barrier that would protect everyone from the fabric of time and space, allowing them to safely travel through one of the many pathways that led to the Abyss.

Daniel had already infiltrated the First Layer of the Abyss and was now charting a path that would take him to Elysium.

Lux and the others wanted to meet him halfway, and their battlefield would be on the path that connected both worlds.

The Leaders of the Alliance told everyone to rest for three days before they undertook their final journey.

Three days was just enough time to let the warriors, who would accompany them into battle, say their goodbyes to their loved ones.

They knew that this time, their chances of survival were significantly smaller compared to fighting against Nyarlathotep and the Abyssal Lords under its command.

The one they would be fighting against was a Pseudo-God, and the power the other party had at his disposal was something that not even the two Dragon Kings, King Azza and Keoza, could easily overcome.

Even so, they would still face him head-on, using the full might of the alliance.

However, on the second day, something unexpected happened.

Several portals appeared in Espoir Frieden, and countless warriors from the different Kingdoms and Empires of Solais poured out to join the battle.

It seemed that they had also managed to defeat the Abyssal Lords that had tried to invade their world, and this time, they would join the fight, which made the total forces of the Alliance swell exponentially.

The Six Kingdoms, the Rowan Tribe, Barbatos Academy, and many other forces decided to join the final battle that would determine whether their worlds would be saved or perished.

Eriol and Max had used their authority to communicate the current situation of Elysium to Solais.

The Kings and Emperors of the various Kingdoms and Empires knew that once Elysium fell, there would be no hope for them as well.

So although they suffered a lot from the Abyssal Invasion, they, too, sent all able-bodied men and women to join the Alliance in their final gamble.

When Lux returned to Espoir Frieden, a pleasant surprise awaited him.

All of his lovers, who had lost their memories, finally remembered him, and this was all thanks to Cupid.

The little troublemaker had used his arrows to shoot the hearts of Lux's lovers, forcefully destroying the seal that prevented them from remembering their beloved.

Their reunion was happy, bittersweet, and painful.

The reason why it was painful was due to the fact that Iris and Cai demanded that he make them pregnant as well.

Of course, Lux could no longer use the excuse that "this wasn't the right time" to have babies because Valerie and Aurelia were already pregnant with his children.

Because of this, Lux was dragged into the bedroom by his two fiances, who had forcibly taken the Everlasting Ring off from his finger to ensure that both of them would conceive his child.

They knew that the battle he would face was a very dangerous one. But regardless of what happened in the future, whether they survived or not, they still wanted to conceive his child.

Making Lux unable to refuse them.

Ali and Ari had promised Valerie that they would only consider getting pregnant after she had given birth to her baby. Because of this, the two beautiful handmaidens didn't demand that Lux get them pregnant.

However, that didn't mean that they didn't spend some intimate moments with Lux in the bedroom.

Of course, Aina and Aurora did the same. Three days later, Iris, Cai, Aina, and Aurora all stood beside Lux on the Floating Island of Edea.

They decided to come with him and take part in the battle that would decide their futures.

Valerie, Aurelia, Ali, and Ari also decided to travel with Lux and stay inside his Guild Headquarters alongside their mothers.

All of them understood that there was no point in staying in Elysium if the Alliance was to be defeated in battle.

If they were going to die, they would die alongside the people that they loved. That way, all of them could be reunited in the afterlife.

Perhaps, the other races also felt this strongly as well.

Because of this, even the non-combatants decided to take up arms and join the Alliance in their fight, further increasing the size of their Army.

All the floating Islands of Karshvar Draconis and the Crystal Palace would be used to house the people who wished to fight.

Since there were more preparations to be done, the three-day limit was extended to five days, giving everyone barely enough time to make the necessary arrangements needed to prepare for the greatest battle the likes that Elysium and Solais had never seen.

High above the Heavens, Eriol and Max watched this scene with solemn expressions on their faces.

Both of them knew where Daniel was and how long it would take him to travel between the Abyss to reach the world of Elysium, where the two final pieces of the Pillars of Eternity were waiting for him.

They relayed all the necessary information to Lux, who shared it with the rest of the Alliance.

This was why they were okay to delay their departure by two days, which they wouldn't have done if they hadn't known Daniel's current location.
