Chapter 1220 The Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven’s Gate [Part 1]
Inside the Golden Gate, countless souls gathered around Lux's body.
When he thought about what Thirteen said, along the lines of thinking outside of the box, he decided to give it a try and called out to all the souls of the dead, regardless of where they were.
After meeting the Gods, he knew that there were other worlds within the vast expanse of the universe, so he attempted to use his powers to reach out to them.
He was doing this while fighting against Daniel despite being unsure whether it would succeed.
But then it happened.
Although faint, he felt them answering his call.
It was also at that moment that he heard a voice that he thought he would never hear again.
It was the Outer God, Yog-Sothoth, who had sent Lux's wandering soul to Earth because it thought it would be more interesting that way.
And now, this same mysterious God told him four words and they were...
"Leave it to me."
Hearing those reassuring words, Lux bought time by fighting against Daniel. He understood that his current strength alone wasn't enough to bring down the Pseudo-God, whom he believed hadn't shown his full powers as of yet.
And he was right.
Daniel had still been holding back.
It was only after being repeatedly dominated by Lux that he decided to go all out, taking the Golden Lion from Azathoth to merge it with his body, alongside the Pillar of Justice.
Yog-Sothoth existed anywhere and everywhere.
Because of this, it was able to ferry all the Souls in the entire universe without a problem.
Truth be told, Yog-Sothoth was very annoyed with Daniel. A mere Pseudo-God dared to involve other Outer Gods like it in the affairs of mortals, in addition to his wish to attain Godhood.
This was also the reason why it decided to help Lux and give the Half-Elf a fighting chance.
Since their Guardian had asked for their help, those under his command answered his call.
It was not only the Souls of the Dead who had heard Lux's call.
The Undead that roamed the lands of the other worlds lent their power as well.
From the lowly Skeleton Warriors to the powerful Death Knights, as well as the formidable Liches, Yog-Sothoth gathered them all.
"My Profession is the Necromancer of Heaven."
"As to why I am getting in your way? It's because you've hurt and killed many important people to me. This is something I will not forgive. So, brace yourself. I have reserved a special place in hell just for you."
"F*ck you!" Daniel roared as he raised both of his hands, aiming it at Lux. "Decimation Flare!"
"Decimation Flare!"
"Decimation Flare!"
"Decimation Flare!"
"DECIMATION FLARE!"
Daniel unleashed several Decimation Flares in rapid succession, intending to wipe out all of his enemies at the same time.
A blinding light erupted in his surroundings, followed by loud explosions. Daniel kept his eyes open and kept on unleashing Decimation Flares one after the other, and only stopped when he could no longer do it.
A few minutes later, the light receded as he panted for breath.
Ever since he became a Pseudo God, this was the first time he felt something akin to fear, and he didn't like it.
Even when he was facing the sleeping Outer God, which was one of the strongest beings in existence, he never felt fear—only a sense of exhilaration and conquest after he managed to obtain its powers.
But now, he felt fear.
He felt that no matter what he did, he couldn't win.
Despite the power he possessed, which could easily destroy an entire world if he wanted to, he still felt that it was not enough.
Countless shattered bones appeared in his vision, making him breathe a sigh of relief.
The Half-Elf, whom he was fighting against, was also no longer in front of him, which made him regain a bit of his confidence.
"He was just bluffing... haha.. haha... hahaha," Daniel forced himself to regain his composure. "He was just bluffing! Hahaha! A bluff!"
Suddenly, he felt a presence behind him, making his body stiffen.
Daniel didn't dare to turn around because he felt that if he did that, his worst nightmare would become a reality.
"Why did you stop laughing?" Lux whispered in Daniel's ears. "Go on. Laugh some more."
A moment later, the countless shattered bones in his surroundings merged together, regenerating the bodies that were destroyed earlier as if nothing had happened. "Ahhhhhhhhhhh!" Daniel screamed as he flew away as fast as he could.
He wanted to escape to a place where the Half-Elf, who was behind him earlier, couldn't find him.
