Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate-Novel



"From death's embrace, I rise with fire and bone!" the Dracolich roared, and a Hellish Gate materialized as if to answer his call. "As Avernus, I claim my rightful throne!"

The Gates of Hell opened wide, pouring out the denizens of Hell who answered the call of their Master.

Hell hounds charged like the rabid dogs that they were, leaving trails of flames in their wake.

Hell Knights, riding atop Nightmare Horses similar to Diablo's own, charged with wanton abandon.

Hell Revenants flew towards their enemies, with wings burning brightly.

They were the monsters of hell, and they would make sure that the world knew of their existence!

The black Blood Ogre as well as the Golden-Eyed Naga shifted their attention to the oncoming tide of Monsters and charged at them.

The black swirl protecting the Blood Ogre transformed into tentacle-like whips, attacking his targets.

However, for some reason, these whips failed to hit anything, allowing the monsters to advance in his direction.

The Golden-Eyed Naga once again stabbed its palm, drawing blood. It then sprayed it in the air, summoning Dreadnaught-Ranked Monsters that looked exactly like it.

However, nothing happened.

Instead of summoning reinforcements, its blood fell on the ground with impunity.

Seeing this, Lilian frowned before shifting her gaze to the pink-haired beauty that was riding on the black coffin.

'What a scary child,' Lilian thought. 'Even Calamity-Ranked Monsters can't be spared from her curse of misfortune.'

Just like the Wicked Queen Slime had surmised, both monsters had been affected by Aurora's bad luck.

Simply put, anything that had probability in it would have the worst outcome.

Spells that relied on chances would not work.

Abilities that relied on certain conditions would not activate.

Attacks that never missed would miss.

And Magic that could cause instant death would fail.

As long as they were branded by Misfortune's Beloved, the only thing they could do was cry!

Lux, Eiko, Asmodeus, and their clones summoned all of their Undead Warriors.

Avernus, who was flying in the sky, used his skill, Summon Undead Legion, to summon the exact same number of Undead that was present on the battlefield, regardless of whether they were summoned by Lux's clones or not.

To make matters worse, Lux, Eiko, and Asmodeus, along with their clones, also used the skill, Summon Tombstone, making several tombstones appear around the two Monsters that summoned Enraged Ghouls.

The King of Exiles, the Four Saints serving him, as well as the Exiles, looked at this scene in shock because countless Undead swarmed the two Calamity-Ranked Monsters like Ants taking on larger prey.

Diablo's eyes burned brightly as he landed a sneak attack on the Golden-Eyed Naga.

Since the number of Deaths on the battlefield had reached a certain threshold, his attack imbued with Divine Ethereal Element effortlessly cut through the Calamity-Ranked Monster's body, making it scream in pain.

But that wasn't all. All the Doomknight Gangbangers also gain a percentage of Diablo's total attack, increasing their damage output as well.

The two Calamity-Ranked Monsters were powerful, but neither of them was able to use their powers fully due to Aurora's curse.

If they took a step back, they would find themselves tripping. If they stepped forward they would slip. They couldn't do anything aside from brandishing their claws and weapons and swatting everything around them.

Due to how dense the monster tide was, regardless of what they did, they were bound to hit something.

However, no matter how many they killed, Lux, Eiko, and Asmodeus would just summon more, trolling these monsters that stood at the Apex of the World.

"This is our chance!" the King of Exiles, Louis, shouted. "Focus on the Golden-Eyed Naga first!"

The four other Saints nodded their heads before flying towards the enraged Monster, who was being besieged from every direction.

Instead of attacking the Monster, what they did was apply debuffs, as well as restrict its movements, allowing the Undead Legion and the Hellish Army to swarm it completely.

Originally, these monsters had high resistance to debuffs, but now that they were cursed, any kind of debuff applied to them was guaranteed to succeed.

The Golden-Eyed Naga was unwilling and unresigned to its fate. But what else could it do aside from desperately trying to defend itself from the unending swarm of Ants, whose blazing eyes were locked on its body?

Suddenly, a dragon tail lashed at the Naga's head like a whip, making it shriek in pain.

Avernus sneered as it circled for another strike, this time slamming its tail downwards. 

Lux, who was hanging onto the Dracolich's back, was sweating buckets because he didn't expect that Avernus would be so brutal.

The Half-Elf wasn't aware that the Dracolich disdained Calamity-Ranked Monsters even though its current strength was only that of the Empyrean Rank.

For Avernus who had once fought against Demigods and their Abyssal Army, Calamity-Ranked Monsters didn't pose a threat to it.

"Stand aside, Peasants!" the Dracolich roared, forcing King Louis as well as the four other Saints to back away.

"Undying Breath!" 

The Dracolich unleashed a Dragon Breath that was imbued with Necrotic Energy. 

Necrotic Energy drained the life force of anything it hit and also prevented the target from using any type of regeneration ability. 

Buffed by Lux's Divine Abyssal Touch, the Dragon Breath directly attacked the creature's soul. The Golden-Eyed Naga's scream of pain reverberated throughout the area as it rolled on the ground, destroying everything around it.

While the Naga was writhing on the ground, the Dracolich flew past it and slammed its tail once again, which gave the phrase "hitting people when they're down" a different meaning.

"You're supposed to be a Dracolich that uses spells to overwhelm your opponents," Lux said in exasperation. "Why do you love to engage in close combat?"

Avernus chuckled before soaring high in the sky.

"Because I can."

Three words, and yet those words made Lux realize that the newest member of his Covenant was truly overbearing.ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ - ɴovᴇlbin

"Time to end this," Avernus spread its wings wide, which made Lux feel as if something big was coming.

"Draco Meteor!"

Unlike Lux's Draco Meteor which summoned several small meteorites falling in every direction, Avernus' Draco Meteor only consisted of one meteor.

One gigantic Meteor.

"Oh sh*t!" Lux cursed loudly when he saw the meteor that was hundreds of meters tall. 

It was not only him who cursed aloud.

The King of Exiles, King Louis also cursed loudly.

Cethus felt faint after seeing the giant meteor and immediately flew away like his life depended on it.

It wasn't just him, everyone in the city ran like madlads because they believed that the aftermath of that meteor strike would wipe out the entire city from the Pantheon of Exile.

"Avernus, don't!" Lux shouted. "You'll kill everyone!"

The Giant Meteorite that had already passed the Dracolich suddenly exploded in a shower of sparks, dealing no damage whatsoever to the forces on the ground.

"It was just a prank," Avernus laughed. "Did you honestly think that I would kill my allies?"

"…I have a feeling that you'd do it if given the chance," Lux replied.

"And why do you think I would do such a thing?"

"You said it yourself,..."

The Half-Elf could only smile wryly as he looked at the City of Exiles that was now in flames before he continued his sentence. 

"It's because you can."
