Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Those who were watching the battle from the side felt their hearts shudder inside their chests.

They never thought that they would live to see the day when the Divine Army of Light would find themselves losing ground against three Necromancers.

However, the might of these three transcended the norms.

Hereswith, Antero, and the Skeleton Queen were more than enough to handle the five Supremes, who suddenly found themselves being pushed back by the beautiful Elf's relentless attack.

In fact, the spectators once again distanced themselves by several miles and were using artifacts that would allow them to watch the battle from that great distance.

A battle between a Demigod and multiple Supremes was not a joke. A stray attack coming from any of them could instantly obliterate an entire city.

If such an attack were to suddenly fly in their direction, they would turn into a meat paste in the blink of an eye.

"Beast King's Wrath!" the Beast King unleashed a beam of destruction toward the Skeleton Queen who had chosen to deal with him and the Lizard King at the same time.

The Lizard King also unleashed the giant spear in the Heavens, aiming to destroy the Demigod in front of him.

But just as their attacks were about to land on the Skeleton Queen's Body, something unexpected happened.

The beam that the Beast King had fired at Skeleton Queen rebounded toward the Lizard King, which the Lizard King attempted to evade by distancing himself as fast as he could.

However, the Beam was extremely fast, and the Lizard King had no choice but to activate one of his Defensive Artifacts to mitigate the blow.

He knew how powerful the Beast King's attack was. Taking it head-on would give him a serious injury. If he got a bit unlucky, he could even receive a fatal injury that would end his life then and there.

After the Lizard King lost his concentration and control over the Giant Spear, the Skeleton Queen swooped in and deflected it using her Death Scythe, causing the spear to fall to the ground, resulting in a giant fissure that extended several miles.

This attack had effectively destroyed half of the Divine City, making the Sovereign's eyes turn bloodshot.

But there was nothing he could do about it aside from resuming his fight against Hereswith, who had a bored expression on her face.

At that exact moment, a pillar of light shot out from the center of the Divine City and flew towards the heavens.

A moment later, a very old man with a few wrinkles on his face showed up with a grim look on his face.

Four teenagers, who seemed to be in their late teens, stood beside him.

"Founder!" the Sovereign of the Divine Army shouted. "Did you manage to save them?"

The Old Man nodded. "The Apostles are safe."

The Old Man then glared in Hereswith's direction as brilliant flames surrounded his body.

He was none other than the Founder of the Divine Army.

The Supreme who created one of the strongest organizations from scratch. He had disappeared after passing the reins to the current Sovereign who ruled in his stead. However, what people didn't know was that he was busy creating an army of Divine Warriors that would take the world by storm.

This was the Apostle Project.

A Project that would give Apostles the power of a Supreme for a short period of time. However, after the duration of this ability was over, that person would die, not even leaving a corpse behind.

"You sure are a troublesome Heretic," the Founder of the Divine Army stated. "Why can't you just stay dead?"

"I can say the same about you, Old Man," Hereswith sneered. "Why can't you just roll over and die?"

"Impudent woman."

"Delusional old man."

Without another word, the Founder and the Sovereign teamed up and clashed against Hereswith, making the beautiful Elf smile.

Truth be told, she was waiting for the Founder of the Divine Army to make his appearance. He was one of the people that Hereswith wanted to kill, and now that he was here, she could finally have her own personal revenge, for the old bastard's command was the root cause of her death.

While Antero was dealing with the remaining Supremes, Lux and Gaap, alongside the members of their Covenant, fought against the Hundreds of Saints who were doing their best to land a killing blow on the two Necromancers, who were only an Apostle and a High-Ranker.

But this proved to be a difficult task due to the countless Undead Monsters that were attacking them from all sides like Rabid Dogs.

After becoming an A-Ranker, Lux's Deus Gigantia had stepped into the Calamity Rank.

It was not only his Skeleton King that received a power-up. The Dracolich, Avernus, had also stepped into the Calamity-Rank, and his fighting prowess had leaped to a frightening level.

As a former Demigod, Avernus had fought on the frontlines against the Invasion of the Abyss.

There, he fought hundreds of Calamity-Ranked Monsters, as well as the Demigods who commanded them.

Although his strength had regressed to the Calamity Rank, his battle experience was still there, and the Saints found this to be quite troublesome.

"This is what I'm looking for!" Sion, the Juggernaut of Agartha, grinned from ear to ear as he smashed his fist into one of the Saints of the Divine Army and sent the latter flying. "This is what I've been missing in my life!"

Swirling his Axe around his body, Sion charged at the group of Saints as if he were dealing with low-ranking Monsters.

He was like a miniature sun that blazed brightly on the battlefield, which caught the eyes of several of the powerhouses who were spectating the battle from afar.

As powerhouses in their own right, they had known most of the Saints that were worth knowing.

Since they didn't recognize Sion, they wondered where such a powerful Saint had come from, especially since he seemed to be only a step away from becoming a Supreme.

Cleo, who was also fighting alongside the Juggernaut of Agartha, couldn't help but curse Lux inwardly for dragging her into a fight that she didn't sign up for.

However, since she was already here, she did her best to not die and supported the Undead Monsters from behind.

Blackfire, was also in the midst of battle, summoning its own army of Undead and Saints to show their terrifying might.

The King of Exiles, as well as his subordinates, fought as one, targeting one Saint at a time.

Lux wanted these powerhouses to retain their Ranks, so he made sure to look for Calamity-Ranked Beast Cores that would prevent them from regressing.

The Saints, who were singled out by this team of Undead Saints, found themselves unable to fight back and were instantly crippled or neutralized.

The Black Coffin would then swallow these near-death Saints and add them to its ever-growing collection, which made those who saw this feel their scalps tingling.

But aside from the King of Exiles and his subordinates, there were other powerhouses that were duking it out with the main force of the Divine Army.

The Black Ogre and the Golden-Eyed Naga, which Aurora had cursed, were also in the midst of battle.

Lux had returned to his Guild Headquarters for a brief moment in order to bring Aurora to the Lost Ark Domain.

This allowed her to increase her rank and become a D-Ranker, allowing her to dispel the bad luck of others who were affected by her curse.

As a D-Ranker, Aurora could remove the bad luck of twenty creatures every month.

Because of this, she had helped Blackfire undo the curse on the Four-Armed Black Ogre and the Golden-Eyed Naga.

But Blackfire proposed to do an experiment, which Aurora wholeheartedly agreed to. As long as she was able to help Lux, she was willing to go above and beyond to make it happen.

What Blackfire asked Aurora for was to help the two Calamity-Ranked Monsters gain an Aura of Bad Luck that worked only against their enemies.

It meant that anyone within a certain range of the two monsters should suffer from bad luck, while the two monsters in question would not affected by it.

After more than a week of trial and error, Aurora and Blackfire managed to do just that.

Now the Black Ogre and the Golden-Eyed Naga were exuding an Aura of Bad Luck, exclusively affecting only their enemies.

The only downside was that the Aura of Bad Luck that they projected wasn't permanent and would only last for an hour at most.

Even so, having bad luck in the heat of battle was something that most people didn't want to experience.

Because of this, the two Calamity-Ranked Monsters were able to overpower the groups of Saints, who suddenly found themselves at a great disadvantage.

Not far from these two monsters, Leonidas, the Gladiators, and the Bounty Hunters were riding on the Undead Raptors that Lux had brought back from the Lost Ark Domain.

These Beasts were quite fast, allowing Leonidas and his crew to deal with the Rankers and High-Rankers of the Divine Army.

Lux's Named Creatures and Covenant Members fought not far from their Master.

This was especially true for Asmodeus, Pazuzu, and Orion who were always at the ready to defend Lux against potential sneak attacks from any direction.

Diablo, whose blade reaped the lives of his enemies like he was just cutting grass, was getting stronger with each passing minute.

His fiery eyes burned brightly as he fought on the front lines, ensuring that the enemies wouldn't reach his Master no matter what.

While this battle was taking place, Lux and Gaap slowly made their way toward the Oracle of Light, to which the Master and Disciple pair had a vendetta.

Even if Hereswith didn't order them to deal with her, the two would definitely target her nevertheless.

While this was happening, a few of the Supremes who were spectating the battlefield eyed each other.

None of them had reached their rank because they were righteous. It was because they were willing to do anything, which allowed them to transcend to the peak of their world.

"This is getting interesting," the Dragon King commented as he eyed the Supremes in the distance. "It looks like things are going to become more intense moving forward."

The Dragon King smirked internally. He had come here to watch an execution, and yet, what he was seeing right now was more entertaining, and exciting.

Not all Supremes or Factions got along with each other. Most of the time, they were always at each other's necks, just like the relationship between Karshvar Draconis and the Crystal Palace.

The Dragon King was certain that if a small pebble were to fall off the peak of a mountain, it would create an avalanche that would drag all of them into this all-out battle, whether they liked it or not.
