Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

chapter-1111
"If your life was a Novel, what would the title be, and how would your story end?"
Faced with countless eyeballs staring at him, Lux felt a pressure that he had only felt for the second time in his life.
The first time he felt it was when he was facing off against Daniel, and the illusionary image of a being that was even bigger than a planet.
Clearly, whoever was asking him this question was an existence that was just as powerful as the one that he had faced back in the Abyss.
Perhaps, getting a bit impatient that its question wasn't answered, the pressure Lux felt doubled, making him almost fall from the sky.However, as if expecting something like that to happen, the air under his feet solidified, serving as a foothold for him to stand on.
The Half-Elf knew that if he didn't give an answer soon, the being pressuring him might just accidentally crush him, and end his life for the second time.
"T-Ten," Lux said through gritted teeth. "Ten Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love Me!"
An awkward silence permeated the surroundings before all the eyeballs that were looking at him suddenly grew mouths and started giggling.
Their creepy giggles grated the Half-Elf's ears, as if he was hearing someone clawing a blackboard, only this time, this sound was multiplied countless times.
After enduring for a few minutes, the giggling of the eyeball stopped. Clearly, they were amused by Lux's answer, prompting them to ask another question.
"Do you want to go back to Solais?""I do!" Lux answered in a heartbeat.
He wanted to go back so badly because he was worried about his family, lovers, friends, and acquaintances.
His Guild Chat wasn't working, and he also couldn't summon any of his Named Creatures to his side.
He was also unable to teleport directly to his Guild Headquarters, reminding him of the time that he was in the Abyss.
"There is a Fairy Tale in this world called Cinderella. I want you to show me something that has a strong connection to this story. Until you do, you will not be able to escape this place.
"You don't need to find me, for if you meet this condition, I will personally send you back to your world. Fail, and you can live your life in this world. This is my mercy."
Suddenly, Lux blanked out, and fell unconscious.
The countless golden eyes disappeared one by one, as if they never existed in the first place.
Lux felt something wet touching his skin, making him feel something akin to dejavu.
When he opened his eyes, he found the French Bulldog, Peanut, licking his cheek, in an attempt to wake him up.
He slowly propped himself up to a sitting position, holding Peanut at bay, before looking at his surroundings.
A few seconds later he recognized the room as the interior of Luna's apartment.
Peanut, who was hell-bent to continue licking Lux's face like a candy, was struggling to break free from his hold.
His Master, Luna, hadn't come out of her room, so he was feeling lonely.
This was why when their guest suddenly appeared sprawled on the ground, and unconscious, Peanut immediately went to work and licked him like a madman—errr mad dog.
Feeling helpless, Lux summoned a Skeleton Gangbanger, and ordered it to play with Peanut.
The Skeleton Gangbanger removed its gauntlet, and petted the dog. However, instead of enjoying the attention he was getting, Peanut bit on the Skeleton Gangbanger's hand, and started gnawing.
The Skeleton Gangbanger found this funny, and even picked up the Bulldog before sitting on the couch and placing Peanut on its lap.
Just as Lux was thinking of what to do next, he heard a knock on the door, making him automatically move towards it.
"Coming," Lux said before opening the door.
The first thing he saw was a beautiful woman wearing stylish clothes, who seemed to be in her early thirties.
The beautiful woman eyed Lux from head to foot before nodding her head in understanding.
"I see, I understand now," the beautiful woman said with a smile. "So, Luna finally has a boyfriend. Nice to meet you Mr…"
"Lux," Lux replied. "But, I think you're making a misunderstanding. I'm not Luna's boyfriend."
"Don't worry, I understand," the beautiful woman winked. "Luna is a celebrity, and as her manager, I need to protect my talent. I'll keep your relationship with her a secret. Here is my calling card."
Lux took the calling card from the beautiful woman's hand and read it.
"Hollie Molly," Lux said softly. "Rising Stars Unlimited."
"Yes, that's me." Hollie nodded. "Well then, Mr. Boyfriend. How did your first night with Luna go? She's still inexperienced, and didn't have the opportunity to have a boyfriend during her idol years.
"Although many influential people and celebrities have tried to get under her skirt, she's protected herself well and risen through the showbiz industry as a popular idol. Of course, her contract states that she is not allowed to have a boyfriend.
"But, since all the handsome men are taken, I'll turn a blind eye and allow her to hook up with you. Take care of her, okay?"
Lux, who was forced to hear Hollie's one sided dialogue, didn't know how to reply. Fortunately, someone else did, which made the beautiful woman's smile widen.
"He's not my boyfriend," Luna lightly pushed Lux to the side as she looked at her manager.
Her eyes were red, and there were still tear stains on the side of her face.
Hollie gave Luna a knowing glance before giving Lux a thumbs up.
"Although I don't mind you being rough with her on your first night together, make sure to do it in moderation," Hollie stated. "Luna is still my talent, and she has just started her career as an actress. I hope you don't get her pregnant, so I won't have to deal with any scand—mmph!"
Hollie was unable to say the rest of her words because Luna used both of her hands to cover her mouth.
While this was happening, Lux unsummoned the Skeleton Gangbanger on the couch, making Peanut look around the apartment, in search of his new-found friend.
