Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Astra was very sensitive to the presence of Monsters, so he could easily pinpoint the Lair of the Satyrs.

When they got close to their lair, Iris could vaguely hear the voices of the women suffering pain and pleasure at the same time.

Knowing what was happening, her face immediately turned grim. However, she contained herself and didn't charge recklessly. Instead, she stealthily snuck towards the location of the sound, using the trees as cover.

Astra had recovered enough to transform into his demi-human form again, but he knew that he could only use it for a limited amount of time.

Even so, he needed to be in his full power in order to protect Iris from the Satyrs, who were busy fornicating with the Rankers that the Succubus Queen had given them.

The blue-haired beauty sighed in relief when she realized that Cai, Alicia, and Henrietta were not among the women that the Satyrs were embracing. Although she felt sorry for the women in front of her, she didn't come to rescue them because her friends were her priority.

Also, she didn't want to suddenly alert the Satyrs of her presence, so she continued to sneak around the Satyr's Lair, trying to search for any traces of her companions.

"Iris, I only sense the presence of one more woman, but she is inside that cave," Astra said through telepathy. "It is impossible to enter it without being noticed by the Satyrs. So, I have a plan. I will distract them, while you sneak inside and see if any of your friends are inside. If they are not there, please, escape as fast as you can. Do we have an understanding?"

Iris nodded. "I understand. Be safe, Astra."

The handsome young man with silver hair and a horn protruding from his forehead smiled and assured Iris that, if he wanted to escape, none of the Satyrs could catch up to him.

A moment later, lightning bolts descended on the Satyrs who were busy with their lovemaking.

Astra didn't hold back and unleashed his strongest attacks with pinpoint accuracy, preventing any of the lightning bolts from hitting the women.

"You bastard! How dare you?!" one of the Dreadnaught-Ranked Satyrs roared in anger before summoning a bow.

The other Satyrs did the same and a moment later, Elemental Arrows flew in Astra's direction, forcing the Unicorn to back away.

However, in order to ensure that the Satyrs would focus on him, he kept attacking them with lightning bolts while slowly backing away.

Enraged from their orgy being forced to come to an abrupt halt, the Satyrs charged in Astra's direction, leaving the Lair unprotected.

When Iris was sure that all the Satyrs had left, she snuck inside the cave to see if any of her comrades were being held captive, or worse, being embraced by the vile creatures of the Abyss.

As she went deeper into the cave, the voice of a woman who was in the throes of pleasure gradually became louder.

Steeling her heart, she followed the voice and came upon a spacious cavern.

There, at its center, was a single Satyr, who was being straddled by a woman, who was shaking her hips in wanton abandonment.

After a quick scan of the cavern, Iris deemed that her friend wasn't there, so she decided to back away.

However, she had just taken a single step when a husky voice reached her ears.

"Welcome to my humble abode, young lady," Ampelos, who was being straddled by the woman, said with a smile. "I heard the commotion outside, so I thought that the Succubus Queen returned, but your Aura was weaker than hers, so I decided to stay and find out what you were up to. Have you come to rescue your friends? If so, why don't you stay and have a nice long talk with me as I take you to the peak of pleasure? Sounds good, right?"

Iris didn't even bother to answer and hastily headed for the exit of the cave.

The Red Phoenix, Zoe, had just informed her Mistress that there were no other ladies inside the cave aside from the one that was being embraced by the Satyr. Because of this, she deemed that there was no longer a reason to stay and fled as fast as she could.

"You have escaped once, you're not getting away a second time!" Ampelos' shout reverberated inside the cave, and Iris could tell that the enemy was approaching her from behind.

The moment she had left the cave, red phoenix wings sprouted from her back. Iris then soared into the sky in order to escape her pursuer.

But before she could soar even higher, a red dome covered the Satyr's Lair, preventing anyone from escaping it.

Iris raised her right hand, and a blue sword materialized out of nowhere. She then slashed the barrier that was preventing her from leaving, but it held firm, and not even a scratch could be found on it.

"That Barrier can only be destroyed by a full-powered attack from a peak Empyrean-Ranked World Boss. I'm afraid someone as delicate as you will not be able to break it."

The Leader of the Satyrs, Ampelos, looked up at Iris with eyes filled with lust and anticipation.

"I'm glad that you came to me on your own volition," Ampelos said. "Perhaps letting you escape earlier was a blessing in disguise. Because of this, that b*tch Rhiannon wasn't able to take you away, just like what she did with your friends."

Iris, who had heard vital information, eyed the Leader of the Satyrs with a calm expression on her face.

"Who is this Succubus Queen you speak of?" Iris asked. "Where did she take my companions?"

"I'll gladly answer your questions during our pillow talk," Ampelos replied in a charismatic tone that could sway the hearts of ladies. "For now, why don't you come down? I don't want to hurt you. If possible, I'd like to treat you gently, like a princess."

Knowing that she could no longer escape the Satyr's Lair, Iris held the blue sword in her hand firmly and pointed it in Ampelos' direction.

"Are you sure you want to fight?" Ampelos asked in a teasing tone. "You will only get hurt if you do. What's the point in fighting if we already know the end result? You can't beat me."

"We'll see about that," Iris said in a calm manner.

Suddenly, the blue sword in her hand shone brightly, which made the smile on Ampelos' face disappear.

Right now, he could feel that the power that the sword radiated could injure his body, which surprised him greatly.

'It seems that she won't go down without a fight,' Ampelos thought as he summoned a short sword in his right hand and a blowpipe with his left.

Iris then held the handle of her sword with both hands before taking a fighting stance.

"Kaizer War Art," Iris said firmly. "Blue Dragon Descent!"

A roar of dragon reverberated in the surroundings as Iris swung her sword down.

A moment later, a beam of light shot out from the tip of her sword, transforming into a blue dragon that charged toward Ampelos with its jaws wide open.

The Satyr sneered as he also took a fighting stance with his short sword, facing the blue dragon that was descending from the sky.

"Dark…" Ampelos growled. "Slash!"

The Satyr slashed sideways, sending a dark crescent blade towards the blue dragon, with the intention of slicing it in half.
