Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

When morning came, Valerie wondered why she couldn't find Aur anywhere inside their residence.

Ali and Ari, who were always beside the Dragon Princess, naturally had not seen the Dragon Prince either.

"Lux, have you seen Aur?" Valerie asked the Half-Elf, who was eating the Elven Kingdom's special egg drop soup made from the eggs of a colorful bird that was said to put anyone to sleep after they heard its song.

The Half-Elf didn't reply right away as he recalled what happened several hours ago.

"No," Lux answered. "Maybe he had something to do and went to look for Piccoro."

Valerie, who thought that Lux's answer held some logic in it, didn't inquire any longer and ate alongside Ali and Ari.

Because she was too focused on her food, she failed to notice that the tips of Lux's ears had reddened quite a bit.

After eating, Valerie asked Lux what he wanted to do. The Dragon Princess wanted to help Lux momentarily forget Gaap's death by looking at the different attractions of Espoire Frieden.

Unlike Karshvar Draconis, the Elven City was on a different level of beauty. Even the buildings were like a work of art.

Although her Kingdom had its own natural wonders, when it came to aesthetics, the Elven Race won, hands down.

"I have no plans for the day," Lux replied. "Why don't we tour Espoir Frieden together?"

"Let's!" Valerie was very happy when Lux took the initiative to ask her out on a date.

Of course, it wasn't technically a date since Ali and Ari were going with them, but it still made her happy.

As if waiting for that moment, a knock was heard on the door of their residence.

Thinking that it was Aur, who had returned for breakfast, Ali opened the door without asking who it was.

However, instead of the Dragon Prince, a beautiful Elf who had a little resemblance to Hereswith smiled and introduced herself.

"We have already met, but I'm not sure if you remember my name," Lorelei said. "My name is Lorelei, and I am Aunt Hereswith's niece. My Aunt had asked me to give all of you a tour of Espoir Frieden if any of you are in the mood for it."

Lorelei glanced at Lux, who was focused on eating his Egg Drop Soup.

He didn't even give the young and beautiful Necromancer a glance, which made her sigh.

'He must still be devastated by the loss of his Master,' Lorelei thought as she eyed Lux. 'I just hope that he recovers soon. Memento Mori and the Divine Army are about to enter their second Cold War.'

Truth be told, the Divine Army didn't use their other Trump Cards during the battle. They had underestimated Lux and Memento Mori so much that they didn't bother to bring their big guns, thinking that it would be overkill.

They would never use an Axe to butcher a chicken, or use a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

It would be beneath them, and they thought that their allies and manpower would be enough to handle everything.

None of them expected that Hereswith would make her appearance as a Demigod.

The moment she appeared, the entire chessboard was flipped over.

The Supremes, who had decided to spectate at first, joined the battle, which made things complicated.

Also, the Elf King, the Dragon King, as well as the Steward of the Crystal Palace, moved to join Lux's side, forcing the Sovereign and the Founder of the Divine Army to revise their strategy.

Although the Divine Army was expecting Memento Mori to make an appearance, they didn't expect that they would be bringing two of the Seven Stars of Calamity to fight them.

Simply put, the Divine Army had suffered a massive loss, even losing their Divine City, as well as their Main Headquarters.

Instead of a glorious celebration for their Founder's Day, what they got was an anniversary of its destruction.

Although they hated Lux, none of them dared to provoke him right now, especially now that the delicate balance of power between the factions of Elysium was broken.

Lorelei, who understood this, waited until Lux and Valerie finished eating before taking them on a tour of their beautiful kingdom.

As the group took a stroll around the city, Valerie noticed that some of the Elves were looking at Lux with disgust, contempt, and disdain.

Although they didn't make any move to taunt him or call him out, this reception made the Dragon Princess very irritated.

Originally, she planned to enjoy sightseeing inside the city, but after seeing that nearly all the Elves were looking at the Half-Elf as if he was some kind of reject, the Dragon Princess finally snapped.

Valerie asked Lorelei to show them things outside of the city so that Lux's mood wouldn't worsen.

Lorelei felt a little apologetic about this because she had completely forgotten that Elves looked down on Half-Elves. Elves took pride in their bloodline, so in their eyes, a Half-Elf like Lux was beneath them.

Lux didn't mind these stares and couldn't be bothered by the opinions of others. However, he was touched by Valerie's attempt to protect him from the disdainful stares of the Elven Race.

Lorelei summoned a giant colorful bird, which they used to fly out of the city.

Lady Faustina and the members of the Royal Guard followed discreetly after they sensed Valerie's presence.

For a brief moment, Lux momentarily forgot his sadness after looking at the beautiful sights in front of him.

It was truly a beautiful sight to behold, and he even wished that his fiances were there with him to see these picturesque wonders of the Elven Lands.

They returned to their temporary residence an hour before sunset.

The Elf King had prepared a Grand Feast for his guests, and Lux and the others were required to join the festivities.

They all knew that this was a good time to form solid alliances between the factions of Elysium, so establishing connections was of great importance.

Hereswith was waiting for them in their residence to give them the clothes that they would be wearing for the party.

She followed Valerie inside her room and asked the Dragon Princess something with a mischievous smile on her face.

"Why don't you reveal your true face at this party?" Hereswith asked. "I'm sure that Lux will be happy to see it."

Valerie, who didn't expect Hereswith would be able to see through her disguise, almost panicked, but the beautiful elf only laughed and patted the young lady's shoulders.

"Is there a reason why you are hiding your appearance?" Hereswith asked with genuine curiosity.

Valerie nodded. "Actually, my father and mother told me to always wear a disguise every time I leave the Dragon Palace. They said that I was too beautiful for my own good. Both of them are afraid that I will be mobbed by people."

"That's it?" Hereswith blinked.

Valerie nodded. "Yes."

"Then you don't have to worry," Hereswith said. "I mean, no matter how beautiful you are, you can't possibly be more beautiful than me, right? It's simply not possible. After all, no one in Elysium is more beautiful than me."

Ali and Ari, who heard Hereswith's narcissistic statement, wanted to refute her, but they couldn't.

Hereswith was indeed more beautiful than the Dragon Princess, but they still believed that Valerie's beauty would still be enough to cause trouble at the party hosted by the Elven Race.

None of those present would dare touch Hereswith because she was a Demigod and her father was the Elven King.

However, Valerie was a green-house beauty who had yet to see the world. If she were to appear using her true appearance, then they were certain that all the eligible Elves of the Elven Race would forget about their disdain for other races and line up to have the opportunity to talk and dance with her.

In the end, Valerie decided to keep her plain-looking appearance. She didn't like to let anyone see what she truly looked like, with the exception of Lux.

After what had happened in the Divine City, Valerie thought that she didn't want to lie to the Half-Elf anymore.

She wanted to show him her true appearance and wanted him to know about her feelings. However, she wasn't a very courageous or bold person.

Right now, she was still doing her best to gather up her courage to make it happen.

She hoped that before they left the kingdom of the High Elves, she would be able to overcome her fears and become a pillar to support the Half-Elf, who had just lost someone very important to him.
