Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Leaf Village…

"Achooo!" Randolph sneezed before raising his fist high up in the air and roared in anger.

"You unfilial bastard, Lux! I'm guessing you're using my name as a scapegoat! Unfilial disciple! Do you plan to get me killed?!"

Lux had no idea that Randolph had a special ability that would give him a warning whenever someone was planning to kill him.

This ability worked no matter the distance.

As long as the other party was seriously planning to kill him, Randolph would be able to know the attacker's name, age, Rank, as well as their current location.

After seeing that a B-Ranker had vowed to kill him, the blacksmith almost choked on the mead that he had been drinking.

This was one of the few reasons why he had managed to live so long in his life—he always made sure to run away from those who wished him ill, and secluded himself as he learned the arts of blacksmithing.

Back in the Naval Battle…

"Randolph? Good!" Harrus growled in anger. "I'll remember you! The next time we meet, you're dead!"

The Dwarf then hatefully turned around to look at the Fortress Defender, who was floating high in the air, and looking down on him with disdain.

Lux had specifically ordered Pazuzu to lock onto the Dwarf with reddish-brown hair because Harrus was the strongest Ranker and the one in charge of the kidnapping operation.

The Half-Elf's intention was clear. He wanted Harrus to be unable to help anyone by forcing him to fight against Pazuzu who was hovering in the sky.

The Dwarf hatefully stomped on the floor of the Pirate Ship and shot toward the sky in order to deal with the Fortress Defender who had forced him to duel.

Using that opportunity, Jack Spawow maneuvered the Black Pearl to escape the messy battle and fled by leveraging the wind to gain as much distance as possible.

Pazuzu, whose role was to ensure that his Master could escape, flew away, forcing Harrus to use the Twilight Ship as a springboard to jump towards the Fortress Defender's location at a speed that was impossible to evade.

Having lost their hostage, the Rankers that belonged to Twilight Rain started to fight desperately.

At first, they thought of taking over the Battleship, Starlight, to pursue the fleeting Black Pearl.

But after the battleship had also retreated to a safe distance while keeping their bombardment active, the Rankers had no choice but to shelve this plan.

"Looks like you won," Carol hatefully spat on the ground before glaring at the green-haired Dwarf that had kept her busy all-throughout Lux's rescue operation.

"Yes," Millie replied. "You lost."

Carol snorted, but she didn't refute Millie's words.

The green-haired Dwarf smirked before flying out of the Merchant Ship that was now teetering on the brink of total collapse.

Carol watched her go for a few seconds before looking at her surroundings. The walls had been destroyed, and the Initiates, who were with her not long ago, were all lying on the ground, suffering from several injuries due to the stray attacks from Millie and the powerful bombardment of attacks that came from the Water Elementalist and the Sniper.

Some of them were unconscious, which made Carol click her tongue in annoyance. However, since they were the new blood of their organization, it was impossible for her to leave them to die.

Using her Dark Magic, she procured dark whips and grabbed hold of their bodies one by one.

When she found the unconscious and badly wounded Scarlet at the back of the ship, Carol lightly tapped on the latter's cheeks.

A few seconds later, Scarlet woke up and looked up at the Dark Magician, who had the expression of a person who had eaten a fly.

"Take out your teleportation crystal and leave this place," Carol ordered. "The mission failed. We are returning to base."

Scarlet weakly nodded her head and took out a teleportation crystal from her storage ring and activated it. A moment later, her body turned into particles of light, disappearing from where she lay a few seconds ago.

The other Initiates had already left, and it was only Scarlet that was left on the ship.

The two Rankers met up with Carol, and both of them had furious looks on their faces. However, there was nothing they could do.

Just before the three could activate their own teleportation crystals, Harrus landed beside them. Compared to the three Rankers, their leader's face was so contorted that it was scary enough to make little children start crying.

"Return to the Stronghold," Harrus ordered. "We will get them next time."

The three Rankers nodded their heads and no longer hesitated. When the three of them disappeared, Harrus glanced in the direction of the Black Pearl, which was now nothing more than a small black dot in the distance.

"Randolph, I'll make sure to repay you in full," Harrus clenched his fist in anger before taking out the teleportation crystal from his storage ring. "I'll chase you, even to the end of the world!"

Just as he was about to activate the teleportation crystal in his hand, a teasing voice reached his ears.

"Really? How about you take a nice long swim instead?"

The Brawler turned his head to the right and stared at the Archlich who had his arms crossed over his chest.

Before the Ranker could even act to kill the Archlich, he felt another strong pull that was coming from the bottom of the boat, making him howl in anger.

Suddenly, Ishtar appeared beside him and kicked the flying crystal that he was carrying away. A moment later, the Night Stalker turned into black mists, and reappeared some distance away, catching the teleportation crystal.

Harrus, who was already overwhelmed by anger, irritation, and grief, roared, destroying the entire ship.

"Looks like we pushed him to the limit," Isthar said as she stood in the air, using two of Morpheus' floating eyeballs as a foothold.

"Well, since he is already our enemy, it doesn't really matter if he gets angrier," Asmodeus replied as he stood on top of Morpheus' head.

Ishtar nodded because this was indeed the case.

"Let's go," Asmodeus replied. "Diablo wanted to give that Ranker a piece of his mind, so let's leave the aftermath to him."contemporary romance

"Okay," Ishtar replied.

Soon, the Named Creatures, as well as the Death Tyrant, turned into particles of light and returned to their Master's side, who had succeeded in rescuing the Princess with the limited time he had.

Under the Sea….

Diablo stood on the deck of the Skeleton Ship and looked up above him.

Harrus was already swimming in his direction, which made Lux's first Named Creature sneer.

He knew that it was impossible for him to defeat a Ranker of Harrus' rank, but that was not important.

The Death Knight could have just returned to Lux's side and called it a day, but after seeing Harrus' strong hostility and killing intent directed towards his Master, the Death Knight decided to use his strongest attack to give the Ranker a little bit of pain before dying.

Holding the Mythical Sword in his Hand, Diablo's eyes glowed brightly from under the water as he brandished his weapon with all the strength he could muster.

"Hellfire Annihilation Slash!" Diablo shouted as his sword was covered with Hellish Flames, making the water around him instantly boil due to the powerful flames he produced.

Suddenly, a loud explosion erupted under the sea, creating a tower of water to rise up to the surface.

A minute later, Harrus emerged from the water, and clung to one of the floating parts of the merchant ship that had now been completely destroyed.

This was Diablo's, Ishtar's, and Asmodeus' last gift to the Ranker, who had almost succeeded in killing their Master.

Now that the Teleportation Crystal was gone, he had no choice but to swim to the nearest island if he hoped to survive. Harrus felt bitter, but there was nothing he could do about it.
