Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate



After finalizing his deal with the Head of the Merchant Union in Whitebridge City, Harrus called his two subordinates and asked them to help him look for those who tried to cause trouble for their Guild.

"No matter where they are, I will be able to find them with my ability," a Skinny Dwarf with brown hair said with confidence as he took out a bottle that contained a silver powder inside his storage ring.

He then lightly sprinkled the silver powder on the place where one of Lucius' guards had been found unconscious earlier.

The Skinny Dwarf then muttered an incantation and a wisp of white smoke rose from the ground, creating a trail that only the three of them could see.

"Well then gentlemen, we got ourselves a trail to follow," the Skinny Dwarf declared. "I sure hope you will give me a bonus for this Boss."

"Of course." Harrus promised. "You've been with me for a long time. You know that I'm not stingy with hardworking individuals."

The Skinny Dwarf nodded his head to acknowledge his leader's words.

Although Harrus could be arrogant, and pushy at times, he treated his men well. Because of this, he stayed with him even though he was being scouted by the other Factions in Twilight Rain, who valued his tracking abilities.

The three Dwarves then took a stroll through the city, following the white mist that was in front of them. They had done this countless times in the past, and they were already sure that no matter where their target went, they wouldn't be able to escape their pursuit.

After an hour of walking, the three Dwarves arrived at the Western Exit of Whitebridge City. In the past, these walls had been destroyed due to the Monster Outbreak. Fortunately, the damage wasn't that serious, so the repairs were done without much difficulty.

"As expected, he left the city after failing his mission," the Skinny Dwarf rubbed his beard as he looked at the Gate. "Should we follow his trail, Boss? The density of the white mist is telling me that he passed through the gate just recently. A rough estimate is around an hour."

"Of course we follow," Harrus replied. "Since he just left, we just need to hurry and catch up to him. The two of you, follow me."

Harrus walked past the gate and immediately summoned a Gryphon. After Lux left him stranded in the sea, the red-headed Dwarf had tamed three mounts for himself. One was exclusive for land, the other for air, and lastly a sea creature for the sea.

The past experience taught him that he should be prepared for any situation, or else he would have to spend days trying to reach the shore through sheer willpower like last time.

His two other subordinates summoned their own Flying Mounts, which were Hippogriffs.

The three of them then chased after the White Mist with firm determination, hoping to capture whoever was responsible for attacking Lucius' men.

A good distance from them, the Wraith King, Leoric hovered above the clouds with his arms crossed over his chest.

He had been paying close attention to Harrus due to Lux's orders, and wanted to know what the arrogant Dwarf was up to.

"I didn't think that one of them would be proficient in using Ever Bright Powder," King Leoric said with a smile. "If my subordinate wasn't a Wraith Knight, they might have been able to capture him right away."

The one who orchestrated the attack on Lucius' subordinates was none other than King Leoric and his Wraith Knights.

Their method was on point, but they were forced to halt their mission when the Wraith King sensed that Ferron had noticed that something was wrong.

Even though he and his men could have defeated the Pseudo-High Ranker without much effort, the possibility of destroying parts of the city was something that Lux forbade them to do.

Also, they had no idea if Ferron possessed an artifact that would warn Lucius that they were under attack, forcing the Merchant to flee using the means available to him.

Because of this, he deemed that it was best to retreat while they still could, leaving their enemies no clues as to who attacked them.

"Lux, the Variables are now away from the city," King Leoric reported using his link with the Half-Elf. "Should we attack them?"

"No," Lux replied. "They are not our targets. Also, I don't want to unnecessarily alert the members of Twilight Rain about our existence. The time will come to do that, but not now."

Lux didn't want to create more variables by letting King Leoric attack Harrus, while chasing after one of the Wraith King's Wraith Knights, who were flying farther away from the city.

"For now, return to monitoring the Merchant Guild, and pay close attention to Lucius' movements," Lux ordered. "Although we can pinpoint his location, and Draven can hear every word spoken around Lucius, I want him to be monitored at all times. We will strike tonight when he sleeps. The darkness will allow the Shadow Warriors to move freely."

"By Your Will," Leoric replied.

The Wraith King then gave Harrus, and his two subordinates one last glance before flying back to the center of the city to keep watch over their target.

Whitebridge City was a big city, and there were many Rankers and High Rankers inside it. After the battle due to the Monster Outbreak, the Kingdom decided to place strong individuals to watch over the city to calm the hearts of the people

The Adventurer's Guild had done the same thing and had permanently stationed a High-Ranker in Whitebridge City, at the request of the King of Gweliven.

Naturally, this request wasn't free, making the King pay for the commission of hiring this High-Ranker as a Quest issued by the Guild.

Leoric knew that if he made any unnecessary movements, these people might sense his presence, which would make the situation more unpredictable.

The Wraith King was a Dreadnaught-Ranked World Boss.

A Monster in the eyes of others, whom they would treat as a hostile Creature that had wandered into their peaceful city.

This was the other reason why Lux didn't want a fight to start inside the city because there was a possibility that these powerful fighters would help save their enemy.

'All we need is one Blitzkrieg attack to end it all,' Lux thought as soon as he finished cutting off his connection with Draven, who was eavesdropping on Lucius' and Ferron's discussion.

After careful consideration, Lux had issued an order to all of his subordinates who would be participating in the Night Raid that would be happening in a few hours.

Capture Lucius dead or alive.

He preferred to capture Lucius alive if possible, but if he resisted, his subordinates were ordered to kill him without batting an eye.

After becoming a Heaven's Necromancer, Lux had become more adept in talking to spirits.

As long as the dead person he was talking to had died recently, he would still be able to extract all the information from that person's soul, allowing him to find more targets for his operation.

Lux might look calm on the surface, but deep inside, he was busy making countermeasures for every possible scenario that might arise during the Night Raid.

In the end, he decided that it would be easier if he allowed Nevreal to aid him in his quest, making the middle-aged Dwarf talk to some of his acquaintances for damage control.
