Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Queen Rhiannon still hadn't regained her full strength after giving birth to Dia.

At the moment, she was only at the peak of the Calamity Rank. But after seeing Antero get destroyed and her daughter taken away from her, she decided to burn her life force in order to save her daughter regardless of the consequences.

But right before she was about to do that, she heard a voice speak inside her head, stopping her from what she was about to do.

While this was happening, Antero's shattered remains swirled like a tornado and began to attack not only Daniel but also the Demigod who had kidnapped his granddaughter right under his nose.

The skies of the Thirteenth Layer now had cracks in it, and parts of it were falling to the ground.

The Succubi all joined the battle to protect their Queen, not caring about the fact that they were fighting against countless Demigods.

Red lightning descended from the cracks in the sky and annihilated countless Abyssal Monsters that were on Daniel's side.

Antero's body was slowly reforming, and even then, his shattered parts didn't stop attacking anyone within its range.

The Demigod who had captured Dia was hard-pressed to escape because Antero had locked him in his sights.

Even while in Stealth, he couldn't escape from Antero's Wrath. A giant spiked stone, which was part of Antero's body, flew straight toward the Demigod with the intention of boring a bloody hole through his chest, killing him for the crime of taking his granddaughter.

However, just as the stone was about to hit its body, the Demigod turned around and raised the baby in his arms, using the crying Dia as a shield against the stone that was about to kill him. But, just as he expected, the stone stopped a meter away from the baby, making the Demigod breathe in a sigh of relief.

He didn't know that this act not only angered Antero even more but that the Golem of Destruction had now decided to murder the entirety of Daniel's forces.

A gigantic stone fist descended upon the bulk of Daniel's army, turning anything it hit into meat paste.

This was the reason why the Pseudo-God didn't want to fight against Antero. Not only was the Golem of Destruction Immortal, but it could also easily regenerate its body, which was why everyone referred to him as Indestructible.

Although he could be destroyed, he would never be destroyed completely.

Even if the Abyss were to cease to exist, Antero alone would remain.

This made him the most dangerous being to fight against. A Monster who could regenerate endlessly and could never be killed was a nightmare to face in battle.

Knowing that this fight could not go on, Daniel teleported beside the Demigod who was holding Dia and took the baby away from him.

The moment he did, a stone spike pierced the Abyssal Lord's chest, killing it instantly.

Dia was the only one preserving his life, so the moment she disappeared from his hands, his life was already forfeited.

"Antero, stop!" Daniel shouted. "I only need the Pillar! You can take back this child. I promise that she will not suffer from its loss! We will also not interfere with the Thirteenth Layer, so stop this madness at once!"

Antero snorted.

No one in the Abyss or anywhere in existence could threaten him. Although Dia might die if he really fought against Daniel with everything he had, the Golem of Destruction was confident that he could capture her soul and store it safely inside his body.

He could just go to Elysium and take a seed from the World Tree, using it to create Dia's new vessel. Not only would she be reborn with a stronger body, but she would be many times more powerful as well.

The same could be said for Queen Rhiannon.

Even if Daniel were to kill him, Antero would do the same.

Also, he had another option.

Since Lux was a Necromancer, he was certain that the Half-Elf would go above and beyond to give Dia and Queen Rhiannon the perfect bodies, which would give them the perfect conditions to revive.

The Golem of Destruction believed that, as long as he had their souls, everything was going to be fine. So even if Daniel was threatening him with Dia, Antero didn't back down and raised his fist to punch the hateful Pseudo-God to oblivion.

However, he stopped his attack when the Succubus Queen flew between him and Daniel with her arms spread wide.

"Please stop, Lord Antero," Queen Rhiannon stated. "It's fine. Dia will be fine."

The Succubus Queen then turned to Daniel and glared at him.

"Take the Pillar of Eternity," Queen Rhiannon stated. "But know this, if my daughter suffers even for a little bit from it, I swear that even if it costs my life, I will make you pay for what you have done to her!"

Antero also glared at Daniel, making the latter sigh in relief.

Although it was troublesome to extract the Pillar of Eternity without harming the baby, it was still within his capabilities.

Taking a deep breath, the Pseudo-God channeled the power of Azathoth in his body to slowly, but gently remove the pillar from the infant's soul.

He didn't dare rush things because he felt that Antero had already sent part of his will to the deepest layer of the Abyss.

The moment something happened to Dia, he would unleash his wrath there, waking the sleeping Outer God from its slumber.

This was Antero's ultimatum.

He didn't care even if he and Daniel suffered mutual destruction. The moment his bottom line was crossed, he would not hesitate to wake up the Outer God, who had the power to destroy almost everything in creation.

Once the Outer God broke free of Daniel's control, the first thing it would kill would be him. Knowing this, the Pseudo-God didn't dare to play any tricks and did his best to extract the Pillar of Eternity without harming the baby, who had now stopped crying in his arms.

The Abyssal Army that belonged to Daniel also breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Antero had finally compromised.

In that short span of time, over a dozen Demigods had died, and countless Abyssal Monsters were killed.

It once again reinforced the belief in their minds that they could offend anyone in the Abyss except the Golem of Destruction, who would not stop until those who offended him were dead without the hope of reviving ever again.
