Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

"Big Brother, we've come to visit you~" "Big Brother, Cinnamon is here, too~"

Lux looked in front of him and saw a black-haired young man, who was panting for breath as he leaned against a tree.

Countless corpses of Monsters were littered around him, which showed that he had just finished a tough battle. Blood seeped at the corner of his lips, and the black, military armor he was wearing was torn in several places. His left arm was also bent at an unnatural angle, which clearly signified that it was either dislocated or broken.

Either possibility was bad, and the way he saw it, the person in front of him didn't seem like someone who could give him advice on how to fight against a Pseudo-God, who was able to use the power of an Outer God.

Lux was sensitive to the strength of an individual, and a glance was enough to make him realize that the teenage boy was weak.contemporary romance

Extremely weak by Elysian and Solaian standards.

He was just like a Grade-D Apostle, which was the weakest rank in Elysium after the Beginner Class. And by a single glance at him, Lux assumed that he was not even older than sixteen years old. "Big Brother, can you help Brother Thirteen?" Maple asked. "His left arm looks funny."

Lux nodded and went toward the young man and gently held his hand. "This is going to hurt, so bear with it," Lux said.

The teenage boy with short black hair and green eyes nodded. Even though he was bruised and battered all over, his eyes remained calm, and his expression didn't show any signs of pain.

His stare was strong and steady, which made Lux feel as if he was looking at a monster that was trapped inside a teenage boy's body.

With one quick jerk of his arm, Lux straightened the teenage boy's left arm, setting it back into its rightful place.

"Thanks," the teenage boy, whom Maple called Thirteen, said. "You're welcome," Lux replied.

The Half-Elf watched as the young man casually raised the pinky finger of his right hand and stared into the distance.

Although Lux couldn't see anything, he had a feeling that the young man was looking at something, which made him frown.

After the young man finished what he was doing, he lightly patted the head of the two little girls, who both smiled and gave him a hug.

"What are the two of you doing here?" Thirteen asked. "Are you looking for your sister?"

"No," Maple replied. "We came here for you, Big Brother."

"This Big Brother wants to ask you for help, Big Brother," Cinnamon stated. "Can you help him?"

Thirteen frowned before glancing at the Half-Elf and eyed him from head to foot. "How may I help you?" Thirteen asked. "I am in a hurry, so make it quick."

Lux took a deep breath before introducing himself.

"My name is Lux Von Kaizer," Lux said. "I came here because the Goddess, Lily, said that you can help me."lights

"I don't know any Goddess named Lily," Thirteen replied. "But you still haven't answered my question. What do you want?"

Thirteen's voice was filled with impatience as if he couldn't be bothered to talk to someone. However, he did accept the potions that Maple and Cinnamon gave him so that his injuries would recover faster.

Sensing that Thirteen would really leave if he kept on wasting his time, Lux no longer minced his words and told him about his dilemma.

The young man with short black hair and green eyes listened to his story from start to end before looking into the distance.

"Explaining will take some time, and I need to go someplace to look for someone," Thirteen replied. "Can you come back after a day? I really need to go." Without even waiting for Lux's reply, Thirteen briskly walked away.

He was still injured and, despite the potions that Maple and Cinnamon had given him, the injuries on his body still hadn't fully healed.

If he rested for two to three hours, all of his injuries would recover. However, he didn't have the luxury of rest.

Someone important to him was somewhere out there, fighting alone to help others survive against the Monsters, who had started to massacre everyone on the continent.

Lux wanted to say that he could help him find the person whom he was looking for, but before he could do that, he found himself unable to say anything.

He had lost his voice, which greatly surprised him.

"Big Brother, we can follow Brother Thirteen, but you are not allowed to interfere or do anything," Maple stated.

"Helping him is no good," Cinnamon said sadly. "Even if Cinnamon wants to help, she can't do it because someone very scary will hurt him more if he receives help from others."

"We helped him a bit earlier, but if we did more, we would just anger that scary person," Maple said with a pout. "This is the limit we can do for Big Brother Thirteen." Suddenly, Lux felt his strength being suppressed for some reason, which wasn't always a good sign. However, after hearing Maple's and Cinnamon's statements, he assumed that this world had its own set of laws that he also had to follow, or else, he would face dire consequences for his actions.

In the end, he had no choice but to observe Thirteen from a distance, along with Maple and Cinnamon, who were looking at him with worried expressions on their faces. He still didn't understand why Lily told him that the extremely weak teenage boy, whom he could easily kill with a flick of his finger, held the answers to beat an enemy who was someone that even Lux couldn't fight with his full power.

However, it didn't take long for him to be amazed when he realized that the teenage boy whom he just met had the courage to fight against Monsters whose ranks were many levels higher than his. Lux watched with a solemn expression on his face as Thirteen used every method in his arsenal to fight the enemies that Lux wouldn't dare to face if he were in the same situation.

Thirteen used the environment, other monsters, as well as his cunning, to overcome the challenges that stood before him. The more Lux watched the teenage boy struggle, the more he understood why Lily and the other Gods were paying close attention to him.

Bleeding and battered, Thirteen continued to walk forward with a resolute look on his face.

For a brief moment, Lux had a feeling that if Daniel had faced this young man in a one-on-one battle, the one who would win would be none other than Thirteen.

He looked at the teenage boy who was dragging his injured body along and facing monsters stronger than him, to look for someone whom he held sacred in his heart.
