Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate



"Aurora!" Lux shouted as he dashed toward the young girl who was falling from the sky.

"… She's… too strong," the Young Aurora said weakly. "I can't… win… in my current… state."

"Don't talk," Lux replied. "Save your breath."

The Half-Elf then used the skills Healing Wind and Half Life in order to help her recover from her injury.

The bloody hole in her chest was slowly but surely closing up, which made Lux sigh in relief. However, the young lady's face was deathly pale, and all the colors in her face seemed to have been drained.

Up in the sky, Zane and Zeke battled the Succubus in order to give Lux some time to heal their Mistress. 

However, they were simply too weak to hold the Succubus back, which resulted in the two of them crashing on the ground after the Beautiful Succubus unleashed a barrage of attacks that overcame their defenses.

"Everyone, fight!" Lux ordered.

The Half-Elf summoned his two clones, who immediately summoned their Undead Army to assist in buying time.

Lux's Named Creatures and the Members of his Covenant also engaged the Succubus in a deadly battle in the sky, preventing her from targeting the young girl whose life could be snuffed out at any moment.

Originally, Lux thought that the Young Aurora would be able to overpower the Succubus Aurora after she had awakened. However, his assumptions were completely wrong, proven by the result of the clash between the two girls.

Aurora, who was now against thousands of enemies at once, didn't panic. She understood that she only needed to kill one person, and that was her younger self.

As long as the Young Aurora was killed, she would be able to take control of their body, allowing her to do whatever she wanted.

"Why don't you leave that trash and join me, Lux?" the Succubus Aurora said as she obliterated the Doomsday Gargoyles that tried to encircle her. "I promise that you will not regret it. I will give you my body and heart, how about it?"

"I'm not interested in your body and heart," Lux replied as he pressed his hands over the bloody hole in Aurora's chest. 

"What a pity," the Beautiful Succubus shook her head, while she exterminated the Wraiths that attacked her en masse. "I guess you can die along with that little b*tch."

Without another word, the Succubus unleashed a hellish purple beam, aimed directly at the Half-Elf, who was busy healing her other half.

A second later, a powerful explosion shook the devastated city, making the Succubus sneer.

However, when the dust cloud receded, there was no sign of the Half-Elf or the little girl whom he was trying to save.

Lux acted fast, swapping places with one of his clones, and continued to heal Aurora as fast as he could.

He knew that even if he fought the Succubus Aurora with everything he had, it was still impossible for them to win because this was the Young Aurora's Ranker Trial.

She needed to overcome her heart demon by herself, or she'd be swallowed by it entirely.

Fortunately, the hole in her chest had finally closed. 

Although her life was no longer in danger, it was only a matter of time before they were defeated.

'Think!' Lux thought desperately. 'What can I do to help? There must be something I can do. Something to help tilt the scales to our favor.'

While the Half-Elf was thinking of ways in order to help the Young Aurora win, countless explosions reverberated in the surroundings.

But, within those explosions, the Half-Elf's strong hearing heard something that made his eyes widen in shock.

He then gazed in the distance and saw Shayna still clinging to her mother and bawling her eyes out.

Although everything around Aurora's little sister was devastated, she and her mom were left untouched by the destruction that the Succubus had dealt upon this illusionary world.

As if the final piece of the puzzle fell into place, Lux finally understood that the goal of Aurora's Trial was not to defeat the Succubus.

It was a trial for her to forgive herself!

Without wasting any more time, Lux picked up the little girl in a princess carry and flew towards Shayna and her mother.

Seeing this scene, the Succubus' face turned grim and charged in their direction. No matter what happened, she must prevent the little girl from realizing what needed to be done in order to beat her.

"Where do you think you're going?" Calypso sneered. "Duel!"

Immediately, the Succubus found herself unable to continue flying in Lux's direction. She then gave an otherworldly scream before flying towards the Living Armor, who had summoned countless golden orbs around her.

"Golden Barrage!" Calypso roared, and the orbs of light unleashed countless beams of golden light that hit her target.

Even so, the Succubus didn't back down and charged at her like a Purple Phoenix, with its wings spread wide.

"Behold!" Asmodeus shouted. "Morpheus Blast!"

The Death Tyrant, who had now become an adult Death Tyrant, unleashed rays of light that struck the Succubus' Body, petrifying her completely.

But this petrification didn't last long. A few seconds later, the Succubus broke out of her stone prison and engaged Calypso in close combat.

As a Divine Weapon, Calypso faced her opponent fearlessly and the two clashed in the sky. Even so, she was still overpowered after forty moves and exploded into particles of light.

Lux's Undead Legion threw themselves at the Succubus in a desperate attempt to buy as much time as they could.

While this was happening, Lux finally arrived at his destination and landed beside Shayna.

"Aurora, do you still feel guilty about the death of your mother?" Lux asked

Instead of answering, the girl in his arms looked at her crying sister before shifting her gaze to her mother, who had breathed her last breath, not long ago.

She then looked back at Lux and nodded her head.

"I know that words are not enough to convince you, so, I will do this instead." Lux supported Aurora's body until she could stand on her own.

When he was sure that the little girl was standing on her own two feet, he lowered his head and pressed his forehead against her.

A moment later, the Young Aurora found herself in a flower field.

In the distance, two girls were giggling, while playing tag with each other. 

"This is…" Aurora muttered as she looked at this scene that had long been buried inside her heart. 

Suddenly, he heard someone talking not far from her.

When she glanced in the direction where the sound was coming from, she saw her mother standing beside Lux.

"Don't the two of them look adorable?" Queen Bianca asked the Half-Elf with a smile. 

Aurora saw the look of surprise and confusion on Lux's face as he gazed at the beautiful Queen beside him.

"I can see you, you know?" Queen Bianca giggled, which made Lux subconsciously take a step back.

"Y-You can see me?" Lux asked.

"Yes," Queen Bianca replied. "But in my eyes, you look like a spirit. Did you perhaps die and still have lingering attachments to this world?"

"I'm not a spirit," Lux answered. 

"Then you're probably someone from the future."

"Eh?"

Aurora then watched as her mother and Lux walked toward the tree that overlooked the Flower Field and listened to their conversation, which made her heart skip a beat.
