Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Chapter 1062  Public Torment

A day after Lux dealt with King Yvar, the citizens of the Capital City gathered at the plaza.

There, they saw several familiar figures, tied to the poles that jutted out of the ground.

At the very center, the King of Fynn Kingdom, King Yvar, was tied up with magical chains, preventing him from using any skills or abilities to escape.

The chains also lowered his Rank and made him only as strong as a Grade-A Apostle.

Tied up on two poles beside him were the two Saints of the Kingdom, Lennox and Hassan.

Just like the King, the two were also tied up with Magical Chains. 

The arrogance these three people used to have was nowhere to be seen. Lux, and Asmodeus, made sure that they wouldn't be able to act tough in front of them ever again. 

King Yvar was gang banged by the Doom Knight Gangbangers, while his two lackeys were gang banged by Satyrs.

All of them now understood that in front of the creatures that specialized in gang bangs, their dignity was meaningless. 

Clearly, Lux not only wanted to avenge Adeline, but he also wanted to humiliate them in the most degrading ways possible.

Standing beside Lux was the Satyr, Ampelos, who had disguised himself as a human, with his arms crossed over his chest.

Behind him were the other High-Ranking Satyrs whom Lux had summoned from his Guild Headquarters and were responsible for making the two Saints understand that there were fates worse than death.

"They put up a good fight, but in the end, they spread their legs like whores." Ampelos sneered. "I didn't think that I'd enjoy torturing men, but I might get addicted to this—if you know what I mean."

The corner of Lux's lips curled up into a smile after hearing Ampelos' words. A single glance was enough to tell him that the Satyrs had completely broken the wills of the two Saints.

In the past, they might have schemed to find ways in order to escape.

But after Ampelos told them that even if they managed to escape, Lux would easily capture them back, their wills weakened.

Perhaps it was also because he threatened the two Saints that if they made such an attempt, he and his Satyrs would make them understand what it meant to be screwed ten times over and that it would make what they had been through a day ago look like child's play.

Not wanting to suffer worse than they already did, the two Saints became more obedient and allowed themselves to be chained and tied to the poles in the plaza.

Kajus, and the other corrupt nobles of the Fynn Kingdom, were tied up as well.

After Asmodeus started his investigation, he didn't stop with just investigating the King and his two sidekicks Saints.

He also investigated the Nobles who were on good terms with the King and happily dragged those whose corruption knew no bounds to the Capital City so that they would also be punished for their crimes.

In short, the Lich King was already paving the way for his Master to rule over the Fynn Kingdom by eliminating the people who might hinder him since he was one of the very few potential candidates to become the next King.

Of course, Asmodeus knew that his Master didn't really desire to be tied down to one place. But now that his biological father was tucked inside Blackfire, it was only a matter of time before their family regained control of the Fynn Kingdom.

"Standing before you is King Yvar and his lackeys," Asmodeus addressed the people who were all gathered in the plaza. "All of them have committed many crimes, affecting most of you. Yet, because of their strength and authority, the majority of you could only bow your heads and grovel at their feet.

"However, all their misdeeds will end here today. But before that, in order to vent out your frustrations, especially those who have been wronged by these people in the past, I will give you an opportunity to exact punishment over them."

The Lich King then snapped his fingers, making countless stones drop in the plaza, surprising everyone.

"These stones are special stones, imbued with the power of the Abyss," Asmodeus explained. "Even Saints will feel pain if they get hit by these stones. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get revenge on these bastards who made your lives a living hell. So, those who want to punish them, step forward!"

Of course, Asmodeus had already placed the people who had been wronged by the King, the two Saints, the High-Rankers, and the Nobles at the very front. 

These were the people who wanted nothing more than to rip the King and his lackeys to shreds, making them the ideal people to punish the criminals in front of them.

Lux, Aurora, and Adeline were seated on an elevated platform, giving them a good view of the surroundings.

But Adeline stood up from her seat and jumped to the front of the masses to pick up a stone as well.

Clearly, she also wanted to personally deal with the people who took away her happiness. Lux had no significant reaction, already anticipating this to happen.

'I hope she holds back and does not kill them instantly,' Lux thought. 

Adeline was a Ranker, so even throwing a rock at someone could deal serious damage to them.

Fortunately, the beautiful Elf was still thinking properly and lowered her strength to that of an Apostle.

She didn't want to give King Yvar and his lackeys an easy way out, and she had every intention of making them feel the pain that she had suffered for many years.

"Ready!" Asmodeus raised his hand. "Open fire!"

As soon as the Lich King gave the signal to start, countless stones flew towards the people who were tied up on the poles of the plaza.

At first, King Yvar, Lennox, Hassan, and the High-Rankers thought that these stones wouldn't deal much damage to them.

However, they were wrong.

Very wrong.

The Stones were imbued by Lux's Divine Abyssal Touch. 

Although it wouldn't deal much physical damage against High-Rankers and Saints, it dealt great damage spiritually, making them feel as if their souls were being pricked by countless needles.

"Stop! Stop! Stop!" King Yvar shouted. "I am your King! You can't do this to me! You can't do this to m-ack!"

Adeline threw her rock towards King Yvar's mouth, breaking a few of his teeth in the process.

A sneer was plastered on the beautiful Elf's face as she continued to hurl one rock after another.

Lennox, Hassan, the High-Rankers, and the Nobles weren't faring any better. All of them were in so much pain to the point that some of them fainted.

However, even if they fainted, a soul-rending pain would wake them up instantly, making them howl and scream, begging for forgiveness.

"Why are you so quiet?" Lux asked the Ghost who was hovering a meter outside Blackfire. "Are you not entertained?"

Vincent's Ghost, who was usually very talkative, looked at this scene without saying a word. 

"It is indeed entertaining," Vincent said without averting his gaze from his half-brother, who was being targeted by Adeline. "But seeing this scene, I can't help but feel sad. I wished things could have been different.

"I had no desire for the throne, and I simply wanted to live a peaceful life with Adeline. But that dream was snatched away from me by my own family, who even waited until my Father drew his last breath before revealing his true colors.

"If only I knew that things would end up this way, I would have killed him before he even got the chance to do what he did. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why I refused to cross over to the other side. As long as Yvar lived, I wouldn't be able to rest easily, knowing that Adeline was bearing my child and had to live on her own."

Lux listened to Vincent's explanation from start to finish.

What surprised him was that he didn't feel any shred or hint of killing intent coming from his biological father.

Only sadness and regret could be heard in his voice, making Lux wonder about what could have happened if things had happened differently.

In the end, he decided to just sigh because things had already happened.

It also crossed his mind that he wouldn't have possessed Adeline's baby if things happened differently.

He suddenly wondered if his soul would have ceased to exist if he hadn't found a suitable vessel after his long journey to Solais.

Perhaps sensing his discomfort, Aurora reached out to hold his hand, giving it a light squeeze. 

Her affectionate gaze made Lux very thankful that he was able to survive that long and perilous journey that almost caused his entire existence to cease to exist.

Lux then patted his lap, giving Aurora an invitation to sit on it.

The beautiful lady agreed and sat on her lover's lap. 

She then rested her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes as the handsome Half-Elf wrapped his arms around her.

Lux then shifted his attention back to the King of Yvar, whose face was already bruised and bloody from the countless stones that had been thrown in his direction.

He knew that the King wouldn't die from this, because he promised Adeline that the one who would take King Yvar's life would be her.

This was the only way for the heart demon in his mother's heart to disappear, and allow her to once again embrace the happiness that she had lost long ago.
