Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate
chapter-930-3

Lux looked at Queen Bianca's peaceful face while her two daughters cried by her side.

The monsters were still rampaging inside the city, and screams of pain, death, desperation, and horror spread in the surroundings.

"Mother…"

A voice familiar to Lux reached his ears, making him raise his head to look behind Queen Bianca.

There, a young lady with long pink hair stood in a daze.

There were two horns on her head and bat-like wings behind her back. Her gaze was fixed on the Queen, ignoring the carnage that was happening around her.

"It's your fault…" Aurora said as tears of blood streamed down her face. "It's your fault. If not for you… mother would still be alive!"

Without warning, her spade-tipped tail lashed out like a whip, heading towards the pink-haired girl who was bawling her eyes out, while hugging her dead mother.

Lux reacted on time and used his body to shield the young Aurora from the Succubus who seemed to be dead set in ending her life.

Aurora's tail bounced off the Half-Elf's arm, which was now covered in Dragon Scales.

"Aurora! Snap out of it!" Lux shouted. "Don't let your heart demon consume you!"

The succubus ignored the Half-Elf's words and raised both of her hands.

"Because of you, my mother died!" Aurora shouted. "You deserve to die!"

The Succubus unleashed a wave of blazing flames toward her younger self, who was still clinging to her dead mother.

The flames engulfed her targets, making her smile.

"Good!" Aurora sneered as she intensified the power of the flames which had created an infernal hell in front of her. "You deserve to die. You should have died long ago! If not for you, Mother would still be alive!"

A few seconds later, she stopped her attack and watched as the flames slowly receded.

She believed that after everything she had done, the little devil would have now burned to a crisp, and that thought made her smile sweetly.

However, the smile on her face disappeared when she saw something black within the flames, resisting the inferno that was burning around it.

Lux opened his Draconic Wings and dispersed the flames from the surroundings.

Shayna, the young Aurora, and their dead mother were safe, even though everything around them had been reduced to ashes.

"I should have expected that the child of Bad Luck would be hard to kill," Aurora said in a hoarse voice. "But it doesn't matter. I will erase her existence from this world, and end everyone's suffering once and for all!"

She then shifted her gaze to the Black Demi-Dragon in front of her and sneered.

"Why are you protecting that THING?!" Aurora growled. "That creature doesn't need to exist! Get out of my way! I will kill her!"

"No," Lux stated. "You can't kill her."

"Fine," Aurora sneered. "I'll kill you first."

The Succubus' body was then engulfed by purple flames, making her look like a devil from hell.

"Anyone who stands in my way will die," Aurora stated as purple flaming swords appeared in both of her hands. "Anyone who sides with Misfortune's Beloved doesn't deserve to live!"

Lux took a step forward, making the ground under his feet shatter.

With every step he took, the ground crumbled as if there was an invisible force that was strong enough to break everything in his way.

"Protect them," Lux ordered. "Do I make myself clear?"

All of his Named Creatures and the members of his Covenant all appeared behind him.

Lux's Corpse God materialized and positioned itself to protect Shayna and the young Aurora from any harm.

Even Blackfire was there, hovering above Queen Bianca's head like an impenetrable fortress, shielding the living and the dead.

Time seemed to move slowly as Lux and Aurora walked towards each other.

Blazing flames trailed in her wake, while destruction followed behind the Demi-Dragon.

When they were only a few meters away from each other, both of them disappeared, and a powerful shock wave erupted at the city's center.

Purple flames and black flames clashed in a never-ending dance of death and destruction, destroying everything around them.

Aurora's swords and Lux's Draconic Claws clashed repeatedly, sending sparks flying in every direction.

Seeing that she was unable to get the upper hand, she used her tail to grab one of Lux's legs and threw him towards a house, destroying it completely.

Just as Aurora was about to throw a fireball at the fallen Demi-Dragon, Lux opened his mouth and unleashed Transcendent Black Dragon Flames that were very effective against Abyssal Creatures.

Aurora gritted her teeth and dodged to the side, avoiding Lux's counterattack.

However, before she could even recover her battle stance, Lux's draconic tail smashed against the side of her body, sending her flying backward, and destroying houses along the way.

A few seconds later, a scream erupted in the distance, and a blazing purple comet flew toward Lux with a vengeance.

The Demi-Dragon didn't back away and covered himself in black flames, charging towards the crazed Succubus, who had lost her sense of reason.

The two clashed and tried to overpower each other.

Half a minute later, the Purple Comet became bigger pushing the Black Comet to the ground.

An earth-shaking explosion erupted, destroying a quarter of the city.

When the dust cloud receded, the figure of a Succubus, who was trying to sever the Demi-Dragon's head from its body, could be seen.

Lux was holding her hands, preventing her blades from cutting his neck. However, to his surprise, Aurora was slowly but surely winning the battle of strength.

"All who side with Misfortune must die!" Aurora growled. "The Misfortune's Beloved must die!"

"Why do you girls always like to be on top?" Lux replied through gritted teeth. "Shouldn't our roles be reversed?"

Aurora sneered as she continued to push her blades towards the Demi-Dragon's neck with a crazed look on her face.

Just as the blades were about to touch Lux's skin, a set of bony hands grabbed hold of Aurora's arms, preventing her from going for the kill.

The Succubus glanced at the two Little Skeletons who were holding onto her in confusion.

"Why?" Aurora asked them. "Aren't you two supposed to be on my side? Why are you helping him? Whose side are you on?"

The two Little Skeletons opened their mouths, and because Lux could understand the Undead, he heard Zane and Zeke tell Aurora that they were always on her side.

"Then why?!" Aurora growled. "Why are you getting in my way?!"

The two Little Skeletons urged Aurora to stop and return to her senses. However, instead of calming down the Succubus, their plea only enraged her more.

"Are you going to betray me?!" Aurora asked, her voice filled with killing intent. "I trusted the two of you, and now, you plan to betray me?!"

The Succubus' eyes blazed brightly.

"Unforgivable!"

She then used her wings to slap the two Little Skeletons, shattering their bodies completely.

"Traitors," Aurora said as blood seeped from the corner of her lips. "All of you betrayed me. All of you left my side. None of you care about me. All of you threw me away."

All of you…

All of you…

All of you…

All of you… deserve to die!

Just as she was about to hack Lux apart with her swords, the Demi-Dragon's fist connected with the side of her face, sending her flying to the side.

He then snapped his fingers and the two Little Skeletons reassembled their bodies and looked at their Mistress.

Although they were only made up of bones, and no expressions could be seen on their faces, a feeling of sadness reverberated from their bodies.

Zane and Zeke then walked towards Aurora with their arms stretched wide, as if pleading for her to calm down.

However, instead of listening to them, the Succubus obliterated them with two fireballs, making them turn into particles of light.

These lights then flew towards Aurora and she engulfed them with purple flames.

A few seconds later, two Little Skeletons that were coated with purple flames stood beside their mistress as their flaming eyes locked onto the Demi-Dragon's body.

"Zane, Zeke, you love me, right?" Aurora said as she patted the heads of the two Little Skeletons. "You will help me, right?"

The two Skeletons nodded their heads at the same time.

"Then help me kill this fool," Aurora smiled. "After that, the three of us are going to play, okay? Back in that dark place where no one will hurt us anymore."

The two Little Skeletons nodded and summoned two bone swords in each hand. They then walked side-by-side with their Mistress, who wished to kill the Demi-Dragon in front of her.

Lux sighed before taking a fighting stance. He finally understood why Aurora was able to overpower him.

Since this was her memory, the entire world was considered to be her Domain.

As long as she wished for it, she would gain the power she needed in order to destroy anything that stood in her way.

"Are you sure you want it to end like this, Aurora?" Lux's clone said as he looked at the younger Aurora, who was still hugging Queen Bianca. "Your mother sacrificed her life to save you. Is this how you want things to end? Does her sacrifice only amount to this?"

The young Aurora's body shuddered after hearing Lux's words.

"Someone like me doesn't deserve to live," the Young Aurora said softly. "I only bring pain to the people around me. I would be better off dead."

"Then what about your sister?" Lux asked. "She's already lost her mother, do you want her to lose a sister as well?"

The Young Aurora glanced at the crying Shayna, whose snot and tears were mixing together as she clung to her mother.

"Mama!" Shayna cried. "Mama, wake up!"

Seeing her sister in such a state, an indescribable emotion surfaced within the Young Aurora's heart.

It was as if her heart had a big hole in it, making her feel incomplete and incapable of feeling any other emotions aside from extreme sadness and powerlessness.

And yet, as Shayna's wails reverberated inside her head, something stirred inside her mind.

Something that once belonged to her in a time when she and her family were still living happily together.
