Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate
chapter-437-30041322

One week later…

Lux, Cai, and Keane, stood at the entrance of the Domain of the Fallen with the members of the Storm Dragon Guild.

Nero had already been briefed of his mission to support Lux.

The handsome young man didn't show any signs of dissatisfaction on the surface, but deep inside, he didn't like the idea of teaming up with Lux.

However, since this was the order of the higher-ups he had no choice but to nod his head and agree to obey his orders without fail.

"I haven't seen the three of you in ages," Einar said as he walked towards Lux with a smile.

In the past, the proud Barbarian Prince had fought with the Half-Elf, who had disguised himself as a chubby Human teenager in the tournament.

After fighting side by side with Lux in the Gate of Death, the Barbarian finally threw his grudges to the side and accepted Lux as one of the strongest members of the young generation, whom he had set as his goal to defeat.

Also, after conquering two Gates with the Half-Elf, the Barbarian had subconsciously made a decision in his heart to always go with Lux whenever he was going to challenge one of the Gates in the Sacred Dungeon.

"Yo, are you guys ready to conquer the third Dungeon?" Val said as he approached the Half-Elf and his friends. "This will be another walk in the park, right?"

"You bastard! What walk in the park?" Einar lightly pounded Val's chest in mock anger. "I still haven't forgotten what you did to me last time."

Val patted his chest before glaring at the Barbarian.

"It's not my fault you are weak," Val replied. "Next time, do better, and don't blame others for your shortcomings."

Einar only shrugged after hearing Val's futile attempt to taunt him.

Xander shook his head as he looked at everyone who was going to conquer another Dungeon. Their small group wouldn't be entering alone this time.

"We meet again, Half-Elf," Malcolm, who was the party leader that led the elite members of the Vahan Empire on the last expedition, said in a teasing tone. "Have you grown a little stronger since the last time we met?"

Lux glanced at the arrogant, young man with dark-blue hair and eyes.

"Who are you?" Lux asked.

"Surely you jest?" Malcolm asked back. "How can you forget someone like me?"

"Cai, do you know who this is?" Lux asked the Boar who was busy talking to Laura and Livia in the Guild Chat.

Cai frowned before shifting its attention to the Initiate that was standing in front of them.

"Sorry, I don't know the name of Cannon Fodders," Cai replied. "How about we call him Villager A for now?"

"Sounds good." Lux nodded. "Hello, Villager A. Nice to meet you."

Malcolm laughed, but his laughter was filled with irritation. He could still remember the time when the Half-Elf had thwarted his plans.

If not for the fact that Lux had used such a diabolical skill to wipeout the army he was serving during the war, he would have been one of the most important figures in the young generation after conquering the Gate of Conquest, and have his name placed among the conquerors who managed to beat the Dungeon.

After his defeat, Malcolm had trained very hard and raised his Rank by a small margin. Even though he was already an Initiate, he wanted to become a Ranker as soon as possible in order to gain a higher position in the Vahan Empire, where his father served as its Great General.

"We'll see who's the Villager A later," Malcolm replied before taking a few steps back. He knew that this was an important mission for his Empire, so he didn't want to cause any problems before they entered the Domain.

He only planned to give Lux a greeting and a warning that he wasn't the same person that the Half-Elf had fought in the past.

Malcolm was confident that if he and the Half-Elf met again on opposing sides, the one who would lose this time would be Lux and his friends.

Half an hour later, all of the members for the expedition had arrived. However, before anyone started, Lux decided to take the initiative to tell everyone what he had in mind.

"I will be the one to lead this expedition, so I want everyone to listen to my orders," Lux announced. "If you cannot listen to my orders then you should back away. I don't have time to deal with deadweights, and those who just plan to leech off of me.

"All of you are carrying observer crystals so your superiors can see what you're doing inside the dungeon. Don't blame me later if you get killed inside for not following orders. I have no use for useless people."

Nero frowned but he didn't say anything. Since he had already agreed with Gerald's orders, he would cater to the Half-Elf's whims for the duration of the expedition.

As for the members of the Skystead Alliance, Xynnar War Pact, as well as Six Kingdoms, they wanted to complain, but after getting a glare from their superiors, all of them held back their words, and simply glared back at the Half-Elf who was standing at the entrance of the Domain of the Fallen with his arms crossed over his chest.

The reason why Lux was confident in challenging the Domain was due to his Summons getting an upgrade.

All of his units were now Rank 4 Monsters. In short, Lux could summon forces that could easily match a Bronze Guild in terms of quality and quantity. Because of this, he was confident that he could challenge the Gate of Conquest even if he only brought Cai, Keane, Einar, Val, and Xander with him.

This was something that the other factions didn't know, so they were still underestimating his abilities.

Depending on how the situation turned out, the Half-Elf would not hesitate to leave everyone behind, bringing only those who had fought alongside him to conquer the Gate of Death and the Gate of War a few months ago, with him.
