Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

"Something is wrong," one of the Demigods that was waiting for his turn to enter the portal said with a frown.

"Indeed," another Demigod commented. "A person is about to enter here from Solais."

"Such a stupid move." A Demigod with a single horn on his head commented. "I'm sure he will piss his pants the moment he sees what is waiting for him on this side of the portal."

The Demigods chuckled because they found this fact amusing.

"Stand aside," the Demigod with a single horn on his head stated. "I'll personally deal with this stupid individual."

Without another word, he leaped high through the air and landed dozens of meters away from the Purple Portal.

He then crossed his hands over his chest and sneered. He really wanted to see how the trespasser would react after seeing that he had made the biggest mistake in his life. 

A moment later, Lux appeared in front of them.

When he saw that there were countless Abyssal Creatures waiting for him on the other side, a frown appeared on his face.

He had already sensed that there were several Demigods in the surroundings, including the one-horned Demon that was looking at him with a sneer plastered on his face. 

"Welcome, Mortal, to the Abyss," the One-Horned Demon said. "I will give you exactly five seconds to kneel and beg for mercy. If you do that, I will consider making you one of my slaves. Aren't I benevolent?"

Lux ignored the One-Horned Demon's words and continued to scan the surroundings. 

He could feel someone stronger than the Demon in front of him, and he was confirming if he was just imagining things or not.

Seeing that the Mortal wasn't paying any attention to him, the other Demigods laughed at the One-Horned Demigod, making the latter's face turn red in anger.

"Foolish Half-Elf!" the One-Horned Demon growled. "Since you do not wish to kneel for mercy then it's time for you to di—"

Just before the One-Horned Demon could finish his words, Lux threw the two Blast Bombs in his hand towards the Demigod before summoning Hana to his side.

Without another word, the Fox Lady grabbed her Master and used her spatial magic to teleport several times in quick succession to distance themselves from the explosion that would soon take place.

Angered by Lux's actions, the One-Horned Demigod used his hand to slash at the two Blast Bombs that were flying in his direction.

He didn't take the two projectiles too seriously because he didn't believe that anything that Half-Elf possessed could hurt him.

That was a mistake.

A very big mistake.

As soon as his hands made contact with the two Blast Bombs, they exploded.

The Abyssal land shook, and an eruption that extended for miles instantly annihilated any monster below the Calamity Rank.

Even after using several spatial jumps, Lux and Hana were still blown away by the aftermath of the explosion.

Fortunately, the impact wasn't that strong, so neither of them received any injuries.

The two stared at the mushroom cloud in the distance, and waited for a full minute before going back to look for survivors.

A scene of carnage appeared in front of them.

The One-Horned Demigod stood in the center of a giant crater, with half of his body burned to a crisp.

He had received a very fatal injury, and it was only a matter of time before he perished.

The One-Horned Demigod didn't think that he would die this kind of death. Everything happened so fast, and before he knew it, his world was bathed in blazing flames, annihilating anything in its path.

Eiko's Blast Bombs had been modified to be able to seriously injure any Demigod Creature it came in contact with. 

But, the main reason why the One-Horned Demon was dying was not only due to its destructive power.

Lux had imbued the two Blast Bombs with his Divine Abyssal Touch, raising its lethality to the next level. 

Even if the Demigod had managed to survive the Nuclear-Level-Explosion, his soul would suffer serious injuries from it.

And, this was exactly what had happened with the One-Horned Demigod.

After looking at the Half-Elf for the last time, the Demigod's body swayed as he fell on the ground.

It was at that moment when a Black Coffin appeared and devoured the precious Demigod that would become Lux's future powerhouse.

The other Demigods, who managed to survive the blast, looked at the Half-Elf with caution in their eyes.

Their bodies hadn't received any injuries because they were able to react in time, but their souls were a bit shaken by the aftermath of the explosion.

After seeing that the number of Abyssal Monsters had been greatly reduced, Lux threw two more Blast Bombs, aiming at the places where the survivors had gathered.

The Demigods and the Calamity-Ranked Monsters that had managed to defend themselves on time, immediately retreated because their lives depended on it.

Those that managed to survive the first blast were unable to run, even if they wanted to.

Their injuries were severe and there was no hope for them to escape a second time.

The 70th Floor of the Abyss shook as the two Blast Bombs detonated in two separate locations.

Just like what they did earlier, Lux once again escaped alongside Hana, using hit and run tactics against their stronger opponents.

Lux might be an S-Ranker, but he couldn't possibly fight several Demigods head-on.

Because of this, he planned to reduce their numbers as much as possible, and fight them after they had received serious injuries from Eiko's Blast Bombs.

"Did we get them all?" Lux asked Hana, who was observing the scorched battlefield with her spatial magic.

"Yes," Hana replied. "But, just as expected, fighting Demigods is tough. The only saving grace is that they are now reluctant to face you head-on, in fear of Eiko's Blast Bombs."

Lux smiled after hearing the beautiful fox lady's report. This was exactly what he was aiming for.

As long as the Demigods were reluctant to fight him, he would gain the upper hand in this battle.

But, his smile disappeared when he felt a powerful force sweep away the black smoke that had covered the battlefield.

The Half-Elf stared at a man wearing Black Robes, who was staring back at him with a frown.

"You…," the Black-Robed Man said as he pointed at Lux. "You came from Earth, right?"

Although the two of them were a distance away from each other, he and Hana could hear the man's words crystal clear.

"I see." Lux narrowed his eyes. "You must be that Champion who tried to ascend into Godhood."

The Black-Robed Man snorted. "The name is Daniel. Remember this, for I will be the one to end your life. Make sure to give your Gods my regards after I send you to the afterlife."

The Half-Elf could feel a strong aura emanating from Daniel, which made his body stiffen due to how oppressive it was. 

Hana, who was standing beside him couldn't help but shudder after sensing a power that transcends that of a Demigod.

Her Master had already informed her that the one that was holding one of the Pillars of Eternity was someone that had tried to ascend into Godhood in the past but failed.

Now that she was seeing the person that her Master had talked about, she felt as if she was staring at the personification of Death itself.

She had a feeling that no matter how many Blast Bombs Lux threw at Daniel, none of them would be able to reach him due to the sheer power that was emanating from his body.
