Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

"That is everything that happened," the High-King of Lunaria said after finishing his report to the Sovereign of the Divine Army. "If not for our Oracle's timely rescue, I, and the others would have followed Flame Tiger's fate."

A sigh escaped the lips of the leader of the Champions of Light after learning that one of their oldest members had died in battle.

"All of you did well in coming back alive," the Sovereign of Light said. "Oracle, you have done our organization a great service. If not for your foresight, we might have lost more of our people today, which would have made our enemies very happy."

The Oracle smiled bitterly before nodding her head. If she had only acted sooner, perhaps the Old Priest would not have died. However, what was done was done, and there was nothing more she could do about it.

"Vera the Puppet Master, truly a fearsome foe," the Sovereign of Light stated. "If I remember correctly, not only can she control puppets, but she can control people as well if she willed it, correct?"

The High-King of Lunaria nodded.

"Anyone below the rank of Saint can be manipulated just like one of her puppets," the High-King replied. "Also, she is a Foreigner, which makes her movements unpredictable."

The Sovereign of Light shifted his gaze to the other members of his council, who were also from Solais.

"Do you know where she can be found in your home world?" the Sovereign of Light asked the Solaians, who had been his members for many years.

"I'm not entirely sure where she lives, but if I have to make a guess, it is in the Eastern Regions of our world," a middle-aged man replied. "I will make inquiries when I get back. But, how should we handle this matter?"

The Sovereign of Light pondered for a bit as he decided what kind of action they would take against the Puppet Master, whom they had offended.

"For now, gather every piece of information that you can get about her," the Sovereign of Light replied after a time. "Her location, family, friends, and those that are important to her must be investigated. Only when we have a full grasp of the situation will we decide what we will do next."

The middle-aged man nodded in agreement.

Someone as powerful as Vera shouldn't be taken lightly. So, until they were sure that they had a grasp of all the information about her, they wouldn't dare to make any move that would further antagonize her.

"So, did any of you who went see Hereswith?" the Sovereign of Light asked.

The High-King of Lunaria, the Oracle, as well as the other Champions who went to Necromancer's Ancestral Lands, all shook their heads.

"Although we didn't see her, we have heard her," the High-King of Lunaria replied. "Her profanities are just as vulgar as when she was still alive. There is no doubt about it, Hereswith exists in some sort of form. As to what form she currently had, I cannot say."

The Sovereign of Light nodded his head in understanding.

"So, we have the Puppet Master, as well as Hereswith to consider," the Sovereign of Light smiled. "What about Memento Mori? Did any of you fight their members?"

The High-King of Lunaria nodded. "I fought against the Undertaker. But, we didn't fight for real. We just fended off each other's attacks. I could tell that Kieran was holding back, and didn't want to go all out against us. Maybe he just acted out of the debt he owes Hereswith."

The Sovereign of Light closed his eyes before resting his chin at the back of his hands.

"Although the two of you faced off, it wasn't a real battle," the Sovereign of Light. "Can I assume that we didn't violate our side of the agreement?"

"As far as how the events transpired, I can say that we have not," the High-Templar, who had also been with the Old Priest and the High-King of Lunaria, replied. "Although we did trespass in the Ancestral Grounds of the Necromancer, we didn't break our agreement with Memento Mori."

"Good." the Sovereign of Light nodded. "Although we are not afraid of them, now is not the time to go on a war against them. The Apostles of Light are still not ready to make their appearance in the world. They must be kept hidden for as long as we can."

Everyone in the room nodded their heads simultaneously for this was the great undertaking that the Divine Army was making in the shadows.

"Have you discerned his name, Oracle?" the Sovereign asked. "Do we now know the name of the Heretic that dares to defy the laws of Heaven?"

The Oracle wrote something in the air with her fingers, which later transformed into golden words that hovered above her head.

Lux Von Kaizer.

That was the name that the Oracle of Light had written for everyone to see.

"Lux Von Kaizer," the High-King of Lunaria said softly. "Should we inform our people and spread this news across the land? Let them know the name of the Heretic, who goes against the Will of Heaven?"

"Yes," the Sovereign of Light said. "Let the entire world know his name, so that every village, town, and city under our control, can keep an eye out for him. If any news of him is heard, we will move to confirm it. We must nip him in the bud before it's too late."

"""By your will, Our Sovereign!"""

On that day, news of the identity of the Necromancer of Heaven started to spread in the territories controlled by the Divine Army of Light.

They even declared that anyone who could give them news about the Half-Elf's whereabouts would be handsomely rewarded by the Divine Army of Light.

Although not as effective as the World Announcement that happened when Lux started to undertake his breakthrough, the influence of the Divine Army was nothing to scoff at.

Weeks later, this news would arrive in the territories controlled by the Skystead Alliance, Xynnar War Pact, and the Six Kingdoms.

As to how these factions would react to this news, only their Kings and Emperors could decide on what to do with the Half-Elf, who had already become a Ranker by then.
