Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Chapter 1222  After Story: Eiko’s New Pet

Somewhere in Solais…

When the Abyssal Army invaded Solais, most of the Kingdoms and Empires fell due to the sheer difference in strength between the two sides.

The Abyssal Lords killed those who resisted and enslaved those who submitted. There were several Abyssal Lords and other Abyssal Monsters that weren't affected by the miasma. Because of this, they were able to move unhindered across the land.

Four of these Abyssal Lords had formed a raiding team alongside their subordinates, and they conquered one territory after the other.

Knowing that no one could stand in their way, they all felt fearless. Since the connection between the Abyss and Solais had been severed, all of them thought that it would be best to make the entirety of Solais their new Domain.

"I can sense a dense amount of life force in that direction," An Abyssal Lord who looked like a Centaur said. "Great!" an Abyssal Lord who looked like a Harpy smirked. "You take all the ladies, and I'll take all the men."

"Both of you are too greedy," an Ogre Abyssal Lord commented. "I'll take the kids. They taste good."

"Tsk! You all should tone down a bit," A Gargoyle Abyssal Lord stated. ""Hahaha!""

A few minutes later, they passed through the dense layer of Miasma and appeared in the lands of the Six Kingdoms.

"Hmm… it seems that all the living people in this territory are gathered in one spot," the Centaur said. "Well, that just makes our job easier," the Harpy stated. "Race you!"

Without a warning the Harpy increased her speed and laughed loudly, leaving behind her comrades.

"Damn hag!" the Ogre cursed. As the slowest in their group, it would definitely be the last person to arrive at the location where the people of the territory were gathered. Even so, it still did its best to run as fast as it could, creating minor tremors as it ran.

The Harpy Queen, who had a head start, arrived first at the city, where Barbatos Academy was located.

She was pleasantly surprised to see that the people in the city looked so happy as if there was some kind of festival.

This made her sadistic nature rise up to the surface as she decided to descend to give everyone a scare.

But just as she was about to descend, she saw a giggling baby Blue Slime sitting on the back of a baby Sea Otter. The two of them seemed to be playing and flying in circles around the city. They didn't even pay attention to the Abyssal Lord who was hovering hundreds of meters away from them. The thing that surprised the Harpy Queen was that the Sea Otter was actually flying, which piqued her interest.

This was the first time she had seen such a thing, and she thought that taking it as a pet was a good idea. 'Well, these Humans are not going anywhere,' the Harpy Queen mused as she flew towards the two Creatures who seemed to be having fun.

Lucky, who was flying without a care in the world, suddenly stopped mid-air when the Harpy Queen suddenly blocked his path.

"Well, hello there, my little pretties," the Harpy Queen said with a smile. "Both of you seem to be having fun. Can this Big Sister join you as well?"

Eiko looked at the Harpy Queen with great interest. This was the first time she was seeing a Harpy, and she thought that making it her pet would be good.

Suddenly, a loud laugh reverberated in the surroundings as the Centaur and the Gargoyle arrived.

Seeing so many beautiful ladies, the Centaur wasn't able to stop himself from laughing, making the Harpy Queen snort.

But just as the Centaur was about to start harassing the ladies, a giant Golden Anchor descended from the sky and crushed his body entirely.

The Gargoyle, who was dozens of meters away from his comrade, hastily backed away after seeing the Golden Anchor crush his comrade.

A few seconds later, the Golden Anchor shrank and flew toward the Baby Slime, who caught it like a boomerang.

The Harpy Queen stared at the harmless-looking Slime in front of her in disbelief. The Centaur was the second strongest Abyssal Lord in their group, second only to the Ogre, who was still a good distance away from the city.

Even now, she couldn't feel the Baby Slime's rank as if it was just an ordinary Slime that could be seen anywhere.

She even thought that the Abyssal Slimes, which could be found everywhere in the Abyss, had more presence than the Baby Slime in front of her, which made her only think of one possibility.

'This Baby Slime is stronger than us!' The Harpy Queen couldn't help but feel that she narrowly dodged death just a minute ago. She believed that if she even released the tiniest bit of killing intent toward the two little Creatures in front of her, she would have died not knowing how she died just like the Centaur!

The Abyssal Army that belonged to the Four Abyssal Lords finally arrived in the city.

However, before they could do anything, a fountain of blood erupted, decimating a quarter of the Abyssal Army in a heartbeat.

The Harpy Queen and the Gargoyle could only look in horror as their gazes landed on the back of a Black Knight, whose cape fluttered in the wind.

Diablo swung his sword a second time, reaping the lives of thousands of Monsters with a single strike.

Eiko, who was also watching this scene, was busy licking a pink lollipop that the Goddess Lily had given her before she returned to the Celestial Realm.

Diablo made short work of the entirety of the Abyssal Army, not allowing even a single one of them to escape.

When the Ogre finally arrived at the City, its sight was welcomed by the bloody scene in front of it, making it stop in its tracks.

However, before it could even ask its comrades what had happened, its vision spun.

A moment later, it saw its headless body still standing, with blood gushing out of its neck like a fountain. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

When its body fell to the ground, it finally saw who had killed it.

A Black Knight whose blade was stained by the blood of its victims.

The Ogre's eyes finally dimmed as death finally embraced it.

The Gargoyle suddenly retreated as fast as it could, believing that the Black Knight wouldn't be able to catch it in the sky.

But half a minute later, a beam of light illuminated the Heavens, completely obliterating the Gargoyle, not even leaving a speck of dust behind.

High above Eiko's head, Poseidon hovered silently. It had the ability to turn completely invisible and hide its presence, which was why the Harpy Queen and its comrades were unable to sense it.

Now that all of her comrades were dead, the Harpy Queen felt as if there was an invisible rope tied around her neck, ready to strangle her if she made a wrong move.

"Want to be my pet?" Eiko asked.

"Yes!" the Harpy Queen immediately replied. "Make me your pet!"

Just as Eiko was about to nod her head.

A golden beam of light suddenly shot up toward the sky, creating a golden ripple that extended outward.

This ripple purified the Miasma in the surroundings and slowly encompassed the entirety of Solais.

The Abyssal Lords, who were still lording over the Kingdoms and Empires that they had subjugated, felt a chill run down their spine when the golden ripple passed over them.

A minute later, a voice filled with killing intent washed over them like a tide, making all of their faces turn grim.

"Wash your necks. I'm coming for you."

The Harpy Queen, who also heard the voice, trembled in fear.

"Eiko, I'm done," Lux said as he appeared right beside the Baby Slime. "Who's this?"

The Half-Elf eyed the Harpy Queen, which made the Abyssal Lord's heart shudder.

"My pet!" Eiko said proudly.

"Your pet?"

"Un!"

"I see," Lux gave the Harpy Queen an evil smile, making the latter almost faint. "Take good care of your pet okay?"

"Pa!" Eiko nodded.

"Let's play a game, Eiko," Lux said as he patted the baby slime's head. "I'll take North and East, while you take South and West. The first one to clean up all the Abyssal Monsters gets a prize."

"Okay!" Eiko agreed. "Come, Pipi!"

"P-Pipi?" the Harpy Queen stuttered as the Baby Slime motioned for her to follow. However, after sensing Lux's gaze, she no longer said anything and quietly followed the excited Baby Slime, who seemed to be hell-bent on winning the game that her Papa had proposed.

In just half a day, all the Abyssal Monsters were wiped out from the face of Solais.

Those who didn't treat the people too harshly were spared, but those who had killed countless lives didn't receive any mercy.

A day after that, a gigantic tree grew behind Barbatos Academy.

This was the World Tree created with the power of all the Pillars of Eternity.

With its appearance, the world entered a phase of rebirth, granting old and new wounds the opportunity to heal with time.
