Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate



'Now, I think I understand a little why you chose him,' the Dragon King thought as he recalled his confrontation with the Crystal Dragon, whom he hadn't seen for a very long time.

To this day, he still had no idea why Keoza decided to reject the position of Dragon King, which shocked not only him but also the entirety of Karshvar Draconis.

"This is for the greater good."

That was the last thing that Keoza told him before he vanished, never to be seen again until Lux appeared in the Dragon Kingdom.

'For the greater good, huh?' the Dragon King narrowed his eyes as he watched the Half-Elf in the projection charge toward the Dreadnaught-Ranked Monster that resembled Godz*lla.

Although there were still doubts inside his head, he set them all aside for now. This was the first time he was seeing Lux fight for real, and he was curious about what other things the Half-Elf was hiding from him.

—--------------

"Leoric, whatever happens, don't let him shoot that long-range attack towards the city," Lux ordered as they approached the Monster that was in command of the entire Monster Army.

"Understood," the Wraith King promised as he slashed the monsters in front of him, cutting all of them in half, which created a path for their charge deep into enemy lines.

When they were only hundreds of meters away from their target, something unexpected happened.

A large crack appeared in the sky, followed by the sound of thousands of crystal vases breaking.

A powerful presence descended on the battlefield, followed by something gigantic falling from the sky, right above Lux and his subordinates.

The Half-Elf, Leoric, and the Wraith Knights immediately backed away in order to prevent themselves from getting crushed by what seemed to be a giant meteor.

The group of Hecatoncheires, who were much slower than the others, didn't have time to evade, and their bodies were instantly crushed by the meteor, sized over a hundred meters big.

The powerful explosion that shook the entire surroundings, sending rock and dirt flying in every direction, covered the battlefield in a thick dust cloud.

Lux and his subordinates, who had barely evaded the attack, looked at the dust cloud in front of them with grim expressions on their faces.

For a brief moment, all the sounds on the battlefield disappeared as if time had stopped. However, this silence was broken a few seconds later by an earth-shaking roar that made General Fahad's face turn pale.

"I-Impossible!" General Fahad gasped as he looked at the dust cloud in the distance. "W-What is it doing here?!"

As if to confirm his worst fears, the land suddenly shook as the sound of gigantic footsteps echoed in the surroundings.

After what seemed like an eternity, a Giant Earth Turtle emerged from the dust cloud, making all the Defenders' hearts turn cold.

"Sh*t…" Lux cursed after seeing the Dreadnaught-Ranked Giant Turtle, who was supposed to be fighting in the Eastern Regions of the Yelan Kingdom, appear in front of him.

As if to make matters worse, the crack in the sky widened, and countless flying monsters began to pass through it.

Not only that, even land Monsters fell from the sky and, even from such great heights, none of them were injured as if all of them had the ability to levitate.

"What now?" Leoric hovered in front of Lux, protecting him from any possible attacks that would come from the Giant Monster.

He had the ability to handle one of the Dreadnaught Monsters, but fighting two of them at the same time was beyond his capabilities.

"I guess we have no choice," Lux stated. "Time for Plan B."

—--------------

The Rankers outside of the Gate of the Fallen were dumbfounded after witnessing the unexpected turn of events that they never saw coming.

Although half of them didn't like Lux, they still felt that this was simply too much for him to handle.

"Well, it was fun while it lasted," one of the Rankers of the Skystead Alliance said. "Unfortunately, it's over now."

The other Rankers all nodded their heads in agreement. Although they had seen Lux do many miraculous things, they sincerely felt that this was how far the Half-Elf could go.

—-----------

"Your Highness, you made the right decision to not help them earlier," one of the members of Crystal Palace escorting Aur commented. "If we did, we would definitely suffer the same fate as them."

"That's right!"

"At least we won't die a miserable death."

As the members of the Crystal Palace were getting rowdy, Aur finally opened his lips, shutting all of them up.

"Do you really think that way?" Aur asked in a calm tone. "If they really die, then we would have all come here in vain."

Without any warning, the Prince of the Crystal Palace jumped off the mountaintop, surprising all of his retainers.

Before they could even react to his actions, a pair of crystal-like wings sprouted from Aur's back, allowing him to glide towards the battlefield at great speeds.

"Protect His Highness!" one of the Dragon Borns shouted and also jumped off the mountain to follow their Prince.

All the Dragon Borns took flight because they knew that if they let something bad happen to Aur, all of them would be severely punished when they got back to the Crystal Palace.

The teenagers from the Skystead Alliance also summoned their mounts to follow the others to battle.

Now that it had come to this, they could no longer stand idly, or their Emperor would punish them when they returned as well.

Heaven's Gate Guild Headquarters…

Gaap, who had seen his Disciple's current situation, propped himself up in his chair and drank half of the mug of beer in his hand.

Lux had asked the Dwarves to try making something similar to beer using the recipes he knew from Earth.

To his surprise, the Dwarves loved the idea and even managed to make something that tasted better than the ones he had back on Earth.

He then handed the mug to the Dragon King, who looked at him with a weird look on his face.

"What?" the Dragon King asked.

"Hold my beer," Gaap replied.

"Huh?" The Dragon King had a weird look on his face, but he still took the mug from the Halfling's hand, wondering what the latter wanted to do.

Gaap then rotated his neck, creating cracking sounds. After that, he moved his hips counter-clockwise, making cracking sounds as well.

After doing a bit of stretching, the Halfling summoned his walking stick and placed one of his hands behind his back.

"I'm going in," Gaap stated.

A moment later, he disappeared from where he stood, making the Dragon King's eyes widen in shock.

The Halfling was fine with Lux trying to fight monsters above his Rank, but after seeing the current situation, he decided to join in the fun.

Gaap knew that his Disciple had many enemies in his home world, with some of them being the rulers of different Kingdoms and Empires.

Since that was the case, he planned to make his appearance and show them that the Half-Elf had a Master like him, who could flip the Giant Earth Turtle upside down with a simple flick of his walking stick.

By doing so, he was sure that they would understand that if they did anything bad to his Disciple in Solais or Elysium, he could easily turn their worlds upside down, just like the Giant Earth Turtle, whom everyone thought had the upper hand in this battle for survival.
