Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

After leaving Earth, Lux returned to Hestia and found Aurora seated on a comfortable couch, eating popcorn with the beautiful Halfling, Erinys.

She was one of William's wives, and her hobby was watching Soap Operas, Adaptations, as well as Anime on Netfix.

Having found a watching buddy, Erinys was very sad when Aurora bid her farewell. However, Aurora promised that after they finished dealing with the problems in their world, she would visit Hestia so that they could finish the rest of the Halfling's recommendations.

Aurora was also quite sad that she only managed to watch half of the show called Squirt Game, where people cleared life and death trials in order to live another day and earn millions of money.

"I'll be waiting for you," Erinys said as she held Aurora's hand. "Promise me that you'll be safe, okay?"

"I will be safe," Aurora replied and hugged her new-found friend. "Lux will protect me."

Erinys hugged her friend tightly for a few seconds before reluctantly taking a step back.

"I'm sure he will protect you, especially after everything he has gone through in order to reunite with you." Erinys smiled. "Both of you, be safe. I will be waiting for your triumphant return."

"Thank you, Erinys," Lux said. "Let's go, Aurora."

Aurora nodded and the two of them held hands before leaving the Ainsworth Royal Palace.

James was already waiting for them outside, and as soon as he saw the two teenagers, he climbed on top of his eight-legged horse and reached out to help Lux and Aurora mount Sleipnir's back.

"Are both of you ready?" James asked.

""Yes.""

James then patted the neck of his trusty steed, signaling to Sleipnir that it was time to leave.

The eight-legged horse then ran full throttle before it gradually rose to the sky, moving at great speeds.

Soon, they broke past through the atmosphere of the World of Hestia and traveled through outer space.

Sleipnir's speed further increased, and before long, Lux and Aurora found themselves traveling in a familiar tunnel, where the lights of the stars sped past them.

Sleipnir ventured forward, closing the distance between them and the world of Elysium, which was about to enter a critical stage in the war against the Outer God and his Abyssal Army.

Western Regions of Elysium…

"The time has finally come," Nyarlathotep declared as he stood amid his Abyssal Legion. "It's time to make these mortals understand that they never stood a fighting chance against me."

The Outer God looked at the Floating Islands and Flying Ships of the Alliance in the distance with disdain.

After nearly two weeks of hit-and-run battles, he now stood in his last stronghold, ready to fight the Alliance in a bloody battle.

King Azza, Keoza, Lady Augustina, the Beast King, and the Leaders of the various factions of the Alliance stared at the sea of Abyssal Creatures that spanned across the horizon.

They were like a black tide ready to swallow the world, and the majority of them were alien-looking abominations that had turned golden in color.

"By the Gods, I think there are nearly a billion of those vile things under Nyarlathotep's control," the Beast King grimaced. "Do you think…"

The Beast King wasn't able to finish his question when the Sovereign of Memento Mori cut him off.

"During our journey, we haven't seen a single Human corpse in or near the fallen Kingdoms and Empires that we visited," the old man said. "I believe that those golden abominations are born from the dead bodies of people.

"I am a Necromancer, and I have committed many vile acts in my lifetime, but I have never done something to this extent. I'm sure my other comrades will agree that seeing this scene makes us feel inferior as Necromancers."

"You mean, you would have done such a thing if given the chance?" the Founder of the Divine Army sneered.

"I will not say that the possibility doesn't exist," the Sovereign of Memento Mori replied. "But I'd rather choose to raise the dead from the cemeteries and Ancient battlefields than to kill millions of people without a proper reason."

"So, can your Undead Legion deal with these small fries?" the Founder of the Divine Army asked.

The Sovereign smiled. "Of course. Let us handle the small fries. You can go aim for the Outer God's neck if you're that capable."

The Founder of the Divine Army frowned but no longer said anything.

Truth be told, he had tried to contact the Sovereign of their organization many times to ask that he send the newly created Apostles over in order to fight against the Abyss.

However, the only reply he received from the other side was the words, "The Apostles are still not ready. I need more time."

Even a few hours ago, he had gotten the same reply from the Sovereign, who had stayed behind in their Underground Base to continue the production of their Apostles.

"Everyone get ready to attack!" King Azza shouted, and his orders spread far and wide, reaching all the Floating Islands and Flying Ships of the Alliance.

As soon as the orders were given, the Floating Island of Heaven's Gate unleashed an opening barrage of Blast Bombs that rained down on the Abyssal Army like a carpet of destruction.

By now, Nyarlathotep had already figured out the range of the Floating Island's bombardment, as well as the weapons it employed in battle.

With a wave of his hand, a purple barrier rose up to shield his forces from the bombardment of Heaven's Gate.

When the first barrage ended, underneath the Alliance's formation, countless giant black tentacles rose up from the ground, ready to engage them in combat.

The Alliance had seen these tentacles many times over the past few weeks of battle.

Just like how Nyarlathotep knew The Alliance's abilities, the latter also knew the tricks that he was employing.

In simple terms, both sides had already gotten used to each other's fighting style and had already developed countermeasures for each.

The moment the black tentacles appeared, the Dragons the Dragon Borns, as well as anyone who had the ability to fight while flying in the sky, attacked the Giant Tentacles that were right under their noses.

While this was happening, Nyarlathotep's Abyssal Army surged forward, marking the start of the final battle between the Outer God and the members of the Alliance.
