Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate
chapter-767-2

Barbatos Academy…

"Father… could it be?" Iris asked with trembling lips as she looked at her Father for confirmation of her guess.

"The possibility exists," Alexander replied. "I wouldn't be surprised if this has something to do with Lux, but something feels off. This is something that I never felt before"

"What do you mean, father?"

"I really don't understand it myself. But for some reason, I feel like a new era has come. A great change will happen in the world. However, I am unable to tell if this change will be good or bad. All I know is that as a Saint, I could distinctly feel that this event is the trigger for something profound."

Saints and Supreme were beings that were able to understand the laws of the world and use them to their advantage. However, Alexander could feel that a new law was about to be born, and this law would change long-standing beliefs that many thought were set in stone.

A moment later, Iris' body stiffened as she fell into a trance.

She felt something warm and gentle wrap itself around her, raising her rank slowly until it reached the Peak of the Initiate Rank.

The warmth she felt was very familiar.

It was the same warmth she felt when Lux hugged her from behind after their lovemaking, making her feel as if she was the happiest and luckiest girl in the world.

Rowan Tribe…

Cai looked up at the Heavens and transformed into her human form. She was wearing the dress that Lux had given her before they parted and asked her to do her best to always wear clothes even when she was in her boar form.

"The only one that has the right to see you naked is me. So, make sure to wear clothes to prevent any accidents from happening."

Those were the words that Lux had told her before giving her a farewell kiss. Currently, she was undergoing her Ranker Trial, and the fluctuations in the Heavens were also affecting her breakthrough.

Cai felt as if the laws of the world were holding her in a gentle embrace, making her feel loved, safe, and secure. She surrendered herself to this feeling as the spirits around her danced happily.

For a brief moment, she felt connected to her distant fiance, who was currently in Elysium.

And through that connection, she reached out her hand and held onto a promise that would change her life forever.

Kingdom of Gweliven…

Aina, who was meditating, suddenly transformed into her Angel Form.

She didn't know why, but she suddenly thought of the handsome Half-Elf, whom she had kissed weeks ago.

Back then, she didn't think much about the kiss and only did it because she felt that it was the right thing to do.

However, since then, Lux would often cross her mind.

Colette's non-stop remarks of "Big Sister, Big Brother is so cool, awesome, amazing, and handsome. Wouldn't it be nice if the two of you get married?" didn't help either.

"What is going on?" Aina muttered as the Divine Power within her body started to tremble as if it was feeling afraid of something. "This has never happened before."

She had just heard the voice that came from the Heavens, making her feel as if she had touched something fleeting while in a meditative state.

'Did something happen to him?' Aina thought as the image of the smiling Half-Elf popped inside her head.

She then closed her eyes and placed her palm over her chest, feeling her heartbeat.

'I don't know what's happening, but I pray that you are safe,' Aina said in her heart. 'I still owe you a favor, so be safe until I return it.'

Karshvar Draconis…

Valerie woke up abruptly from her slumber.

She had just dreamed of Lux, and the two of them were doing "stuff" that was very unfamiliar to her.

She could vaguely remember herself saying in her dream that they mustn't do it or she would get pregnant.

However, Lux's calm and gentle voice only told her, "I will take responsibility and ask your father to go fishing with me."

This wasn't the first time that Valerie had dreamt of something like this.

After meeting Lux in the Outer Reaches, something awakened inside of her. For a long-lived race like Dragons, Valerie was still a child in her father's eyes.

However, the Dragon King wasn't aware that she was maturing at a very fast rate, and had he known, it would have made him happy and worried at the same time.

Happy because his beloved daughter was starting to become mature, and worried because of the things that were still too early for her to know.

"Sir Lux…," Valerie said softly as she covered her face with both hands. "Why are you always on my mind?"

The peerless beauty of the Dragon Race didn't know the answer to this question.

All she knew right now was that her heart was beating wildly inside her chest as the image of the handsome Half-Elf once again appeared in her mind.

Within the most desolate place in Agartha…

A young lady with long pink hair raised her head.

Whether she looked up, down, left, or right, all she could see was darkness.

Maddening darkness that could have driven anyone crazy.

Fortunately, her willpower was stronger than most people's for it was the only thing that she possessed.

Born as the lady of misfortune, she was imprisoned in a place where no one could reach her.

A place where she would spend her days staring at the endless darkness, which had become her dear friend and companion.

However, today was different.

Within that darkness, a ray of light suddenly appeared.

Aurora raised her trembling hands as if to embrace that warm light, filling up her lonely heart with the warmth that she had never felt before.

"Lux."

A name escaped her soft and seductive lips, triggering the ray of light to intensify.

She had only met him for a brief moment, and even then, she thought that it was just a fleeting dream.

A hallucination that was created by her desperate heart and mind that craved for someone to talk to.

Someone to hold her in that cold and lonely darkness that was slowly turning her heart into stone.

"You're real," Aurora said with trembling lips as tears streamed down the side of her face. "You're so warm…"

Lux, who had appeared in front of her, spread his arms wide and wrapped her in a firm yet gentle embrace.

"Soon," Lux whispered in her ears. "I will come for you soon. Wait for me, Aurora."

"Un," Aurora replied through pained sobs as she hugged the Half-Elf not caring whether he was an illusion or not. "I'll wait for you. Come and find me."

Lux continued to hug the trembling girl in the darkness until her tears stopped completely. Only when Aurora regained her calm did the image of the Half-Elf disappear.

When the ray of light vanished, and she was once again wrapped up in darkness, Aurora saw two sets of eyes glowing beside her.

"Who?" Aurora asked as her eyes slowly adjusted until she saw two small skeletons that were only two-feet-tall standing in front of her.

One of the miniature skeletons opened up its mouth creating clicking noises as if answering Aurora's question.

"Your Master sent you here to keep me company?" Aurora asked once more, making the two skeletons nod their heads.

"What are your names?" Aurora inquired about her two guests, whom she had never seen before.

The two Skeletons once again made clicking noises, which made the pink-haired beauty smile.

"You don't have names? Very well, I will give both of you names," Aurora said with determination. "From now on, your names will be Zane and Zeke."

The two little skeletons jumped happily and made clicking noises. They liked the names that Aurora had given them and, with this, their contract with her was officially set in stone.

Amidst the darkness, the lonely girl that had been forsaken by her kingdom no longer felt alone.

For there were two little skeletons who would talk to her and keep her company.

The anxiety and worry that she had been bottling up for the past few years rose to the surface.

Aurora cried, not holding back her voice.

Her pained sobs echoed within her dark prison. However, this time, two skeletons were there for her.

As if telling her that everything was going to be fine, they both gave her a hug.

Aurora hugged them back, and the three of them huddled in the darkness.

She was the lady of misfortune, who held all the bad luck in the world.

But, on this day, she found two new friends who were unaffected by her curse.

Friends that would stay by her side forever, ensuring that she would not be lonely for the rest of her life.
