Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Chapter 897 I Bring Dire News

As a High Priestess, Cai had developed a skill that would allow Spirits to Possess her for short periods of time when she was still very young.

This allowed her to harness their powers and use it to defend herself or to attack others in self-defense.

Through the years, she had mastered this ability, allowing her to retain the spirits inside her for a long time that could last for several days up to several weeks.

When Queen Rhiannon possessed her in the hope to corrupt and control her body from within, the former didn't know this.

She only succeeded to possess Cai in the beginning because the former allowed her to succeed.

Cai was certain that Lux would come to her rescue, so she confidently laid out the foundation of her trap that would prevent the Succubus Queen from escaping once she possessed her body.

Since she had given her chastity to Lux, she had imparted a mark in his body, which allowed her unique Body Constitution to synchronize with him every time they made love with each other.

Through this connection, Cai was able to break free from Queen Rhiannon's control and trap the Demigod inside her body, allowing them room for negotiations.

——————————

Queen Rhiannon, who was still possessing Cai's body, laid on the bed as the Half-Elf's essence spurted inside of her.

Throughout their lovemaking session, the Succubus Queen just laid there without moving and simply allowed Lux to do whatever he wanted with her body, draining her strength in the process.

Her outburst in Cai's Spiritual World drained her emotionally, and she no longer cared what they did to her.

Queen Rhiannon knew that Cai couldn't keep her trapped inside her body forever, so the Succubus Queen was merely waiting for that time limit to expire.

Once that happens, she would have her revenge and pay Lux back tenfold for everything that happened to her.

As for Cai, she still intended to turn her into a Succubus, regardless of her will.

The Succubus Queen was a very patient person, especially after everything that she had gone through. Knowing that she would have the last laugh, she decided to endure everything until Cai reached her limit.

As for Lux, although he was able to increase his rank drastically, the Half-Elf was only halfway through his breakthrough to become a C-Ranker.

He had to take several breaks in order to let Cai's body recover, aware that doing it too much would harm her in the long run.

His fiance had also shared what had happened between her and Queen Rhiannon inside her Spiritual World and asked Lux to help convince the Demigod to settle for a compromise.

'I can understand that she hated the condition of revealing her True Name,' Lux thought. 'But if we can't get her True Name, any negotiations we make with her will have no binding power whatsoever.'

Cai had also told the Half-Elf that at most, she would only be able to trap Queen Rhiannon inside her body for a week. After that, the Succubus Queen would be able to break free.

When that happened, it will be their turn to suffer her wrath.

Two days had already passed since Lux and Cai were able to turn the tables against the Demigod.

This meant that they only had five more days in order to find a way to convince her to compromise.

While Lux was thinking about what they should do, he gently carried Queen Rhiannon off the bed and walked towards her private pool, which had restorative properties.

Although Lux could heal her injuries using Healing Wind, he was unable to restore her stamina. Because of this, he would take her to the pool after every ten rounds to rest for half an hour.

The pool also allowed Lux to recover his stamina, which was like hitting two birds with one stone.

"Is there really no way for us to meet halfway?" Lux asked the Succubus Queen as he gently cleaned her body with his hand.

"My True Name is non-negotiable," Queen Rhiannon replied. "I will not agree to any compromise if it involves giving you my True Name."

The Half-Elf sighed in his heart because they were once again back to square one.

An hour later, while the two of them were still resting, someone barged inside the room, taking Lux and Queen Rhiannon by surprise.

"Your Majesty! It's terrible!" one of the Succubus of the Passion Palace shouted as soon as she entered the room. "Your Majesty, where are you?!"

Hearing the urgency in the Succubus' voice, Queen Rhiannon felt that something was terribly wrong.

"I am here!" Queen Rhiannon replied. "What's wrong?"

Since Lux was holding her firmly in his embrace, the Succubus Queen had no choice but to call out her subordinate to her.

A second later, the room of the pool area opened and an anxious looking Succubus entered.

"Forgive my intrusion, Your Majesty," the Succubus stated. "I know that you are still toying with these mortals, but I bring dire news. Andras, the Demon Lord of the 12th Layer, is gathering his massive army to attack!"

"What?!" Queen Rhiannon shouted. "Where is he going to attack? Who is he going to attack?!"

"Your Majesty, you already know that there are only two possible targets for this invasion," the Succubus replied with a grim look on her beautiful face. "Either he attacks the 11th Layer, or he attacks the 13th Layer.

"As far as I know, Orias, who ruled the 11th Layer, is still as formidable as ever. His army is also very competent, especially after his latest skirmish against the Abyssal Lord of the 10th Layer, Andrealphus. Although we think that he might be intending to attack the 11th Layer while they are still recovering from the war, the possibility of him attacking the 13th Layer is still higher."

Queen Rhiannon hatefully gritted her teeth after hearing her subordinate's report.

"That war-mongering bastard Andras, does he think of me as a weakling?!" Queen Rhiannon gnashed her teeth in anger. "Does he really intend to attack the 13th Layer?!"

This wasn't the first time that Queen Rhiannon had fought against Andras. Their latest battle happened fifty years ago, and it ended with Andras retreating in defeat. contemporary romance

That was also the time when Queen Rhiannon had made a name for herself and everyone recognized her strength as an Abyssal Lord of the 13th Layer.

'Did he perhaps increase his strength in a span of a few decades?' Queen Rhiannon frowned. She knew that Andras would only attack if he was certain that he had a chance of winning.

"Your Majesty, what should we do?" The Succubus asked. "According to our Agents in the 12th Layer, it will only take Andras three days to gather and arm his thirty Demonic Legions before they set forth to wage war. If he really decides to invade the 13th Layer then…"

The lips of the Succubus trembled because this was the worst case scenario.

Although their Queen was indeed very powerful and stronger than Andras, they didn't have an army that could fight against his Demonic Legions.

When two Demigods fought, they would definitely prevent each other from targeting each other's army.

This would allow their subordinates to move, and whoever had the stronger army would eventually win in the end.

Unless Queen Rhiannon could drastically overpower Andras and prevent his forces from invading the 13th Layer, the chances of the 13th layer winning were slim.

Each Layer of the Abyss held a very special Abyssal Core.

This Abyssal Core granted authority to the Abyssal Lord, giving him complete dominion over the Layer of the Abyss.

Once the ownership of this Abyssal Core changed, the new Master of the Land would gain a great boost in their strength, allowing them to become more powerful than they already were.

"Send word to the Satyrs, and gather everyone in the Main Hall," Queen Rhiannon. "I will meet all of you in three hours."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" the Succubus hurriedly left the room to carry out her Queen's orders.

Lux, who had heard everything from start to finish, suddenly felt Cai's body tremble.

It was as if Queen Rhiannon was fighting a great internal battle with herself.

A battle that would decide her Fate, as well as the Fate of her subordinates who trusted her with their lives.
