Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Cai had seen many beautiful girls, but she hadn't seen someone as peerless as the woman in front of her.

The lady's words which were as smooth as silk and sweet like honey passed through her ears, making her forget about the pain she was currently feeling.

Before she could even properly think and consider the other party's proposal, her lips moved on their own and said 'yes.'

The smile on the peerless beauty's face widened after hearing her answer.

"You have three seconds to release her, Ampelos," the Succubus Queen stated. "If you don't, I'll cut off your d*ck and feed it to the Hell Hounds."

As if given the death sentence, Ampelos hastily released his grip on Cai's hair, causing the girl to fall to the ground.

However, the Queen of the Succubus lifted her finger, and Cai floated in the air, unharmed.

"Queen Rhiannon, what's the meaning of this?" Ampelos said through gritted teeth, restraining his anger. "These Humans appeared in my territory and even killed several of my brethren. Are you saying that we are to endure this injustice, and allow you to take them all away?!"

The other Satyrs were also unwilling, but they also didn't dare to anger the Queen of the Succubi, who was one of the Demigods of the Abyss.

(A/N: Demigod is the Supreme Version of Monsters. In short, they are stronger than Calamity Class Monsters.)

"Worry not, I will not take everyone, and I'll even give you a small token of my appreciation," the Queen of the Succubus, Rhiannon, said with a smile.

She then looked at the six Ranker Ladies who belonged to the Skystead Alliance and Xynnar War Pact.

Queen Rhiannon's purple eyes glowed faintly as she activated her Charm Ability. This was no ordinary Charm Skill, for this skill was of the [Epic] Rank, only a level below the [Divine] Rank.

"The six of you are not allowed to commit suicide, and you will treat the Satyrs as your lovers," Queen Rhiannon ordered. "Do I make myself clear?"

The Six Ladies blanked out for a brief moment before nodding their heads in unison.

"""We hear and obey, Your Majesty."""

During the battle earlier, Queen Rhiannon noticed that there was a group of people that were desperately trying to protect Cai and Iris when the Satyrs had encircled them.

The other Rankers seemed to belong to a different group and focused on defending only themselves.

In order to maintain a good impression from Cai, she decided to "save" the people that were on her side. This included the members of the Rowan Tribe and Barbatos Academy, who desperately fought alongside Alicia to protect their people.

"…This is not enough, Your Majesty!" Ampelos insisted. "I want her!"

The Leader of the Satyr pointed at the purple-haired beauty, Henrietta, who was currently unconscious beside Alicia.

"No," Cai said weakly. "Not Henrietta. She is a friend."

Queen Rhiannon smiled as she once again caressed the side of Cai's face.

"Don't worry, none of your friends will be hurt," Queen Rhiannon stated. "Do you also want me to look for your friend who escaped? I can do that as well if you want."

"No." Cai shook her head. "Leave Iris alone."

Queen Rhiannon nodded. "Fine. Now sleep, I'll handle the rest."

Cai was already very exhausted and was only hanging on through sheer willpower. After getting the beautiful lady's assurance that none of her friends would be hurt, she finally blacked out and lost consciousness.

"You heard her," Queen Rhiannon smirked. "Her people are off limits. But don't worry. You can have this as compensation."

The Succubus Queen raised her hand and a Beast Core, the size of a basketball appeared in front of Ampelos.

"That is an Empyrean-Ranked World Boss Beast Core from an Abyssal Dragon," Queen Rhiannon. "No need to thank me. It's yours."

Without another word, the Succubus Queen snapped her fingers, and all the members of the expedition, with the exception of the six Lady Rankers from the Skystead Alliance and Xynnar War Pact, floated in the air.

Queen Rhiannon took all the men regardless of whether they were on Cai's side or not because she planned to give them to her subordinates, who were very eager to have some fun with the Human males.

Ampelos and the Satyrs could only watch with resentment as the Succubus Queen flew away, carrying away with her the women who were supposed to fill the nursery with their young.

When the Queen was no longer in sight, Ampelos smashed his fist on the ground with hatred.

"You b*tch!" Ampelos growled in anger. "I swear I'm going to screw you silly someday, even if it's the last thing I do!"

The Leader of the Satyrs repeatedly punched the ground out of anger in order to vent out his frustration, creating a large crater under his feet.

Only after several minutes passed did Ampelos manage to regain his composure.

He then hatefully glanced at the Ranker Women that the Succubus Queen had left behind.

Although they weren't half bad and were also pretty ladies, they were still nothing compared to Iris, Cai, Alicia, and Henrietta, whom Ampelos wanted to taste at least once.

However, that was no longer possible, so he was left with this small compensation in return for all the deaths of his subordinates.

"We're going back," Ampelos ordered before he picked up the prettiest lady among the six that were left to them. "You can have fun with the others, but make sure not to break them. Understood?"

"""Yes Boss!"""

The Six Ladies, who had been charmed by Queen Rhiannon, didn't resist and followed the Satyrs to their lair.

Those who were watching the scene lead to this outcome through the projection in Elysium could only clench their fists and cry out in anger after seeing the Fate of the Rankers that belonged to their faction.

The battle in the Dark Forest was only a small part of the expedition force.

The other Rankers who were teleported to random places in the Abyss suffered worse fates, and some even died at the hands of Abyssal Creatures.

This was perhaps the most tragic expedition that the Skystead Alliance, Xynnar War Pact, and the Six Kingdoms had suffered in many years.

Only the members of the Crystal Palace, who were exploring a different place when the incident happened, were spared from the tragedy.

Only a handful of their people, who had gone with the main group, were sucked in by the Black Hole. However, all of them were still alive because they seemed to have been transported to a deserted place, somewhere in the Abyss.

Even so, the fact still remained that no one knew if there was a way out of that place.

A place where hope didn't exist and where life could easily be snuffed out in the most unlikely of places.
