Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

"Does it hurt?" Lux asked with a sneer. "It hurts, right?"

"Not as much as the pain you will feel after I'm done with you," Nero replied in a heartbeat.

The devil-like teenager then hurled several black lightning bolts at the Half-Elf, who immediately summoned several Bone Walls to block its path.

These bone walls immediately shattered to pieces, but the lightning bolts failed to hit their target because the Half-Elf was no longer in the place where he originally stood.

Lux had changed his armor to the armor that he had prepared for the tournament when he fought against Nero in the past.

It was none other than Lux's Dragon Regalia, which allowed him to use the skills, Lightning Strider, that would allow him to instantly teleport to any place within a twenty-meter radius around him, and Improved Lightning Reflexes, which enhanced the speed of his movements, allowing him to dodge and execute maneuvers that required fast movement.

His armor and these two skills allowed him to go toe-to-toe with the young man who had the power to control black lightning bolts at will.

"Coward, fight me one-on-one if you dare!" Nero shouted.

"Yeah, no," Lux replied while giving Nero the middle finger. "I'm a Necromancer. We don't do one-on-one."

When the Half-Elf summoned the Bone Walls earlier, he had also summoned his other Named Creatures at the same time, allowing them to position themselves throughout the battlefield.

Orion pointed his finger at Nero, and used his skill Duel [EX], prompting the latter to attack him.

This time around, the skill connected, and Nero used his incredible speed to reappear in front of the Jade Golem to deliver a powerful blow on its body.

But, at that exact moment, a devilish smirk appeared on Eiko's face, whose head was barely poking out of the ground.

A moment later, the ground under Nero's feet cracked as countless Blast Bombs exploded at the same time, engulfing him in a fiery blaze.

When Lux had summoned the Bone Walls earlier, he ordered Eiko to go hide underground.

The Baby Slime obeyed and used her Dig skill, so that she wouldn't be killed by their opponent.

Eiko's other clones were also underground and were creating small tunnels, allowing them to travel from one point to another without much difficulty.

It was Eiko's clone that had used a Dragon Breath earlier to hit Nero.

Although Nero seemed well on the surface, he wasn't unscathed from the Dragon Breath that collided with his body, despite having managed to block it at the last second.

The reason behind this was simple.

Eiko was able to copy Lux's abilities, and among the skills she copied was her Papa's Abyss's Touch [EX].

This skill dealt 200% more damage against Abyssal Monsters, which made Lux very confident that he would be able to fight against Nero because all of his attacks were "super effective" against his enemy.

A moment later, Lux heard a pained shout, which was like music to his ears.

He had already summoned Orion to his side to prevent the Jade Golem from dying. Although his Named Creature was a Revenger, he didn't like to see him die every time he appeared on the battlefield.

Besides, Orion could help him better if he was alive rather than if he was dead.

After seeing that her plan had worked, the Baby Slime hid underground once more and, with her two clones, began to create several Blast Bombs in order to prepare for their next attack on the very cocky Ranker, who was about to experience a world of pain from the power of Lux's Abyssal Touch [EX].

The silver-haired man who saw this from far away pinched the bridge of his nose because he didn't know whether he should continue to interfere with the battle or not.

He had already helped Nero once, which was something he shouldn't have done in a one-on-one duel.

Nero was already a Ranker, and his opponent was an Apostle, but the Half-Elf's way of fighting had improved by leaps and bounds after gambling with his life in a fight against General Revon.

It was during that battle when Lux truly felt the power of the Necromancer Class, which allowed him to fight with everything he had.

"This isn't a one-on-one battle," Jasper stated as he looked at Nero who had flown up into the sky after suffering an injury from the trap that Lux had laid out for him.

"It definitely isn't," Einar replied as he took out his War Axe from his storage ring in preparation to fight against Jasper and his team, along with his own teammates. "The moment Nero challenged Lux to a one-on-one battle, he should have taken this into account. A Necromancer doesn't fight alone. It has been one against many from the very start."

Jasper nodded his head in agreement as he took two swords out of his storage ring.

"Well then, shall we start?" Jasper asked as he pointed his sword towards Einar.

It was now time for them to settle their differences with each other as well.

"Let's," Einar replied with a fearless smirk. "Right now, I feel like I can beat an Initiate."

Jasper snorted. "Dream on, you're not Lux."

"That, I'm not," Einar took a step forward as he held the War Axe Firmly in his hands. "I'm more handsome than him."

Diablo, who was standing beside the Barbarian Prince, gave Einar a side-long glance before shifting his gaze back to his Master.

The Death Knight was very tempted to tell the Barbarian that he should take a good look in the mirror before saying that he was more handsome than his Master.

However, since both of them were on the same side, he would just pretend that he didn't hear Einar's words, and simply focused his attention on the battle that was happening in the distance.

Lux had a reason why he didn't ask Diablo to participate in the battle.

His Death Knight had a more important duty to do, and he would do it to ensure that his Master would come out of his battle victorious.
