Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

After flying a good distance away from the Xeno Kingdom, Aina descended to the ground and gently set Lux on the ground.

She then sat on his waist, preventing him from going anywhere.

Aina then lowered her head until it was only a foot away from the Half-Elf's head, staring at him with the same expressionless face she always wore on her face.

Lux held her gaze as if trying to understand why she suddenly acted the way she did.

However, before he could even ask her a question, Aina spoke first.

Upon hearing her words, Lux's body stiffened.

"Did you come from Earth?" Aina asked.

The Half-Elf looked at Aina in surprise, not expecting to hear this question come out of her mouth.

"How did you know?" Lux asked back. "Are you from Earth as well?"

There were only two theories he could think of why Aina was aware of the existence of Earth. The first one was that she had heard about it or had accidentally found this information on her own.

The other was that the dwarf in front of him, who looked exactly like the younger version of the star he idolized, was also from Earth!

Aina didn't answer Lux's question. Instead, she asked him another question.

"You said that you like this person that has the stage name, Luna," Aina stated. "Are you her friend? Her acquaintance? Or her fan?"

Although Lux felt a little uncomfortable with this one-sided interrogation, he couldn't bring himself to get angry at the young lady, who had the face of his idol.

"I am her fan," Lux answered. "Not only was I her fan, I was her number one fan. I supported her before she even became a superstar."

Aina's gaze softened a bit, but this time, her hands rested on Lux's shoulder, holding him more securely into place.

Aina was a very strong Dwarf. Her unique ability doubled her strength stat, allowing her to become extremely powerful.

When she was in her Angel of Vengeance Form, her strength would stack with a similar power up, making it extremely hard for Lux to break free from her hold.

Although her grip was not enough to hurt him, it was enough to pin him in place.

Lux felt lost looking at Aina's beautiful eyes, which only reflected his image.

He didn't know if he should be happy or concerned about the fact that all of her attention was focused only on him and with their bodies pressed against each other.

Suddenly, Aina spoke a name that made Lux's body shudder.

"MoonKnight69."

This time, he looked at Aina with disbelief because there was simply no way that she could know the username he used back on Earth.

"Who are you?" Lux asked. "How did you know my pen name? It is about time that you give me answers."

Aina once again ignored Lux's inquiry and asked him for confirmation.

"Are you really MoonKnight69?"

"Yes. YES. YES! Now. Can. You. Answer. My. Questions?!"

Lux was now feeling very irritated. He had already compromised despite the discomfort that he was feeling.

It was at this moment when he felt something wet fall on his face.

"A-Are you crying?" Lux asked in disbelief as Aina's tears fell on his face.

He could see her lips trembling as if she was trying her best to hold back her emotions.

This was the first time that Lux had seen Aina's cold expression change, and for a brief moment, he had forgotten all the anger and discomfort that was bubbling inside his chest.

The young dwarf then lowered her face to Lux's chest and started sobbing. Her small body, which had stood on the frontlines of the battlefield in order to protect her Guild Members from harm, trembled as her tears fell one by one.

Right now, she looked very vulnerable. Lux was unable to stop himself from wrapping his arms around her back, and he patted her head gently.

'Fine,' Lux thought. 'I will let her cry for now. But, I will demand an explanation after she calms down.'

Several minutes passed before Aina's sobs started to die down. Even so, she still buried her head on Lux's chest, as if she was afraid to show him the expression she had at the moment.

The Half-Elf wasn't in a hurry either, so he simply continued to pat her head and rub her back.

For him, Aina was a symbol of strength, and seeing her so defenseless like this made his heart ache a bit.

Finally, after nearly an hour, the young lady raised her head to look at Lux.

Her eyes were still a bit red, and there were still tear stains on her face. Even so, her expression had softened a bit, making her look more lovely, compared to her usual stoic doll-like beauty that hid her true self.

"MoonKnight69, I thought that I would never see you again," Aina said softly. "To think that you will be reincarnated in this world, I wished that I had recovered my memory sooner."

"Okay, let's calm down for a bit," Lux said as he lightly rubbed Aina's back. "This time, you will answer my questions, okay?"

Aina nodded. "Okay."

"Then, my first question," Lux said. "Are you also from Earth?"

"Yes," Aina answered.

"Then, my second question. Who are you? What was your name back on Earth?"

"My name was also Aina when I was still on Earth. My full name is Aina Williams."

Lux frowned. He didn't know anyone named Aina back on Earth, but the surname Williams was familiar to him.

This was the surname of Luna's real name.

Shania Williams.

That was Luna's real name back on Earth, and only he and the core members of her fan club knew about this name.

Still, since Aina's surname was Williams, it only means that she shared the surname of his idol and had some kind of relationship with her.

"I'm sure that you don't know my real name, but I'm confident that you are familiar with my username," Aina said softly. "My username is…"

"Little_Falling_Star."

Lux gasped in shock because this revelation hit him like a truck.

Indeed, he had no idea who Aina Williams was, but it was impossible for him to not know who Little_Falling_Star was.

If he was Luna's number one fan, Little_Falling_Star was Luna's staunchest supporter. In fact, she had clashed with Lux in the past for the position of Luna's number one fan.

However, the Half-Elf was firm and didn't budge. Because of this, she had no choice but to settle as Luna's Number Two Fan.

The two of them had fought side by side in countless forums and lambasted anyone who dared to talk sh*t about their idol.

In short, both of them were Keyboard Warriors, and the number of online weebs that they had defeated was countless.

"Little Falling Star, is it really you?" Lux asked as he raised his hand to cup the side of Aina's face. "The last time we talked, you said that you are going to study abroad. But two years passed and I still hadn't heard anything from you…"

Lux's words trailed off as a sudden reality hit him.

There was only one explanation for why Luna's staunchest supporter, who had the same fervor as him in protecting their idol, vanished without a trace.

"I see…" Lux's lips trembled. "You died."

Aina was older than him by two years.

When Little Falling Star disappeared, he hadn't seen her for two years before he died. Now that he was looking at her face to face, he felt as if he had found his long lost lover, whom he hadn't seen for many years.

As Luna's number one and number two fans, they shared a lot of time with each other. The members of the fan club even referred to them as the Moon-Star crossed lovers.

Although Lux was a little embarrassed to admit it, he and Little Falling Star did have an online relationship. However, neither of them had shown their face to the other and only talked using voice chat.

"Can you tell me more about you?" Lux asked. "Tell me why you disappeared for two years."

Aina reluctantly nodded before resting her head on Lux's chest. She then began her tale and told him about her real identity and her relationship with Luna.

She also told him why she said that she would be traveling abroad and would be inactive for the time being.

When she finished, Lux was unable to stop himself from hugging her tightly.

He didn't expect that his online girlfriend had such a tragic backstory.

A story that nearly broke his heart.
