Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Lux silently opened the door of Iris' room, revealing the figure of his beautiful fiance, whom he hadn't seen in a while.

Since Iris was a very important person in Barbatos Academy, only those that had special authority could access her private residence, and Lux was one of those people.

Alexander made sure that no one below the Saint Rank could infiltrate his daughter's residence in order to keep her safe from harm. Iris was one of his reverse scales, and anyone who dared to hurt even a strand of her hair would feel his wrath.

Lux sneakily walked towards the bed to take a peek at the lady who was sleeping peacefully.

When he saw his fiance, Lux felt as if his breath was taken away.

Iris was currently wearing a black, one-piece nightdress, but this wasn't why Lux felt at a loss for words and breath.

Even with the faint lighting inside the room, the Half-Elf was able to notice the subtle changes in her body, which he deemed were caused by her breakthrough to be a Ranker.

Her beautiful face seemed to have become more beautiful, which made Lux's heart beat wildly inside his chest.

Iris' skin that was as white as cream looked more smooth and radiant with life, giving Lux a strong urge to touch her.

Her perfectly shaped breasts, which were currently hidden from his view due to her nightdress, seemed to have gotten a little bigger as well.

Of course, Lux wouldn't be able to confirm his guess unless he had a good look at it, which he planned to do later in the evening once the majority of the people inside the Academy had returned to their rooms to rest.

Lux sat beside Iris' bed and simply looked at her with a smile on his face. He could tell that the blue-haired beauty was in deep sleep, so he decided to just let her rest and not wake her up.

Even Eiko, who missed her terribly, only crawled down from Lux's head and moved towards her Mama's pillow.

The Baby Slime then gave Iris a kiss on the cheeks before she, too, closed her eyes to rest.

Clearly, she wanted to sleep beside her Mama, and Lux was fine with that.

Thinking that what Eiko did was a good idea, Lux also lay down on the bed beside Iris and gently wrapped his arms around her to give her a hug.

Half a minute later, the Half-Elf had also fallen asleep beside his fiance.

Due to the continuous events that had happened over the past few days, Lux wasn't able to get any proper sleep. Now that he felt safe and was beside the person he loved, he welcomed sleep's embrace, which he needed so badly.

Several hours later, the door of Iris' room opened, and another beautiful young lady entered the room.

This lady had sun-kissed skin, and her hazel eyes looked at the two people that were sleeping on the bed.

Eiko, who seemed to have sensed her presence, opened her eyes momentarily before yawning.

Cai, who had accompanied her Grandpa to look for one of the ingredients he needed, returned to Barbatos Academy with him.

The beauty with long, light-brown hair, lightly patted Eiko's head before placing a finger on her lips.

Eiko nodded and closed her eyes to go back to sleep. Since the one that entered the room was Cai, there was no need for her to wake up her Papa and Mama, who were in deep sleep.

After looking at the two people whom she deemed as very important to her, Cai felt left out, so she decided to join them.

She lay down her head beside Eiko and also wrapped her arms around Iris. With the blue-haired beauty at the center, the three people, plus the baby slime, slept together until it was almost dinner time.

The first one to wake up was none other than Iris. To her surprise, she found herself being used as a hug pillow by two people, Lux, and Cai, who were sleeping on her left and right sides.

Eiko woke up half a minute after Iris and immediately gave her a kiss on the cheeks, which Iris returned with a smile on her face.

"How long have you guys been here?" Iris said softly, so as to not wake up Lux and Cai, who were sleeping by her side.

"Ma~" Eiko replied.

"Six hours ago? That's quite a long time," Iris commented.

"Ma~"

"I missed you too, Eiko."

Perhaps due to their enhanced hearing, Lux and Cai were woken up by the pair's chat at the same time.

"How about me?" Cai asked playfully. "You didn't miss me?"

Iris giggled. "How can I miss you? We just had breakfast together this morning."

"How about me?" Lux asked as he lightly caressed Iris' lower abdomen, making the blue-haired beauty blush. "Did you miss me?"

"I did," Iris replied as she gently pried the mischievous hand, which was starting to move downwards, away. "Why don't we all eat something first? I'm starving."

Lux was tempted to say that he wanted to eat her first, but since Eiko was inside the room, he just nodded his head and propped himself up from the bed.

Cai did the same, and she accompanied Lux outside Iris' room while the blue-haired beauty changed her clothes.

"Did you miss me?" Cai asked as she looked at her handsome fiance, whom she hadn't seen since the two of them had undertaken their Ranker Trial.

"Of course," Lux replied as he cupped Cai's face before kissing her forehead. "You've become more beautiful since the last time I saw you. It seems that those who receive the World's Blessing also increase their charms. How about me? Did I become more handsome?"

"A tiny bit," Cai replied before kissing Lux's cheeks. "But it's strange. Although both of us have become a Ranker, you feel somewhat different. The Spirits are telling me that you are stronger than normal Rankers."

Lux smiled before summoning his Soul Book, which he passed to Cai for her to read.

The smile on Cai's face stiffened after seeing her fiance's Soul Book. She made sure to check it three times just to make sure that she didn't read it by mistake.

Only after confirming that what she saw was real did she look at the handsome Half-Elf, who had a smug look on his face.

"Don't act so smug," Cai lightly pounded Lux's chest, making the red-headed teenager chuckle.

A minute later, Iris opened the door and looked at her fiance, and her best friend, who were currently being playful with each other.

"Did something happen?" Iris asked. "Why do you look so flustered, Cai?"

"Iris, look at this," Cai hurriedly showed the blue-haired beauty Lux's Soul Book. "Doesn't this make you want to smack him?"

Iris took the Soul Book from Cai with an amused look on her face. However, her amused expression didn't last long before it was replaced with shock after seeing the information in Lux's Soul Book.

A few minutes later, Iris closed the Soul Book and returned it to Lux.

"You're not getting any sleep tonight," Iris said sweetly, which made the Half-Elf feel as if he was going to fight a war that he couldn't possibly win. "Are you going to join me, Cai?"

(E/N: Sleep? What's that?)

(A/N: Kekeke.)

The young lady with light-brown hair blushed, but still nodded her head.

She had already decided that the next time she saw Lux, she would take the initiative to take their relationship to the next level.

Seeing the look of determination in his two fiances' eyes, the Half-Elf decided to brace himself for what was about to come.

"Challenge accepted," Lux stated with a never-say-die expression on his face.

Although it was two versus one, he believed that he would be able to outlast the two beautiful ladies, whom every young man in both Solais and Elysium definitely wished to become their lovers.
