Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

"You bastard! You gave my name to a Ranker that was out to kill you!" Randolph hollered as soon as he saw Lux come inside his Smithy.

The Half-Elf had no choice but to apologize to the raging Dwarf who already raised his Adamantium Hammer, which he used to forge weapons and armor, and was about to smack his shameless Disciple silly with it.

"Sorry, Master," Lux said with an apologetic look. "I was facing off against a Ranker. How could I possibly use my name? What if he looked for me just to kill me?"

"You damned brat! If that's the case, then why did you give him my name? Did you even think about the fact that the Ranker could search for my name and come to kill me?"

"Relax, Master. I already have everything figured out. Even if he found you, how can a Ranker mistake you for a chubby Human? My Master is so handsome and so awesome that a Ranker would even apologize to you for mistaken identity."

"... You do have a point." Randolph had no choice but to accept Lux's logic because he really wouldn't pass as a chubby Human teenager.

With his good looks, wouldn't it be an injustice for him to be mistaken for Lux's chubby persona?

After calming his Master, Lux asked him to come with him to the Village Head's house to discuss the plans he had for their Guild.

When everyone was gathered, he mentioned Thoram's proposal to first open a General Store and sell consumable items like pills, potions, and medicines to the public in order to raise funds for building their Guild Facilities.

Grandma Annie's ears perked up when she heard that Lux would buy an Advanced Alchemist Recipe Book so that she could craft higher quality pills, potions, and medicines that they could sell. Also, Keelan had promised to look for suppliers that would provide her with the raw materials for her work.

The remaining funds in Lux's possession would be used to purchase the raw materials because the General Store would need capital before it could take off.

"This is a good plan," Cedwyn said as he rubbed his beard. "It will also raise the quality of the items that we can sell in our village. As you may already know, Leaf Village is on the very outskirts of the Kingdom of Gweliven. You can even say that it is its farthest outpost in the Southern end of the Kingdom.

"The village was founded to be used as a base for Dwarves sent to explore the Savage Lands farther South. If we can raise the quality of goods we sell here, it is not impossible for our Village to send our own expedition team to explore the Savage Lands. Right now, the only active explorers in those parts are Cadmus (Draconian Kobold) and Sid.

"Since the village is now a safe haven from Monsters thanks to the Guardian Crystal, this is also a good opportunity to venture Southwards, and maybe, this will also pave the path for our Village to become a Town."

The Elders of Leaf Village nodded their heads in agreement because they also wanted to see their Village grow and prosper. Since they couldn't actively recruit members for their Guild at the moment, that didn't mean that they couldn't expand their scope of operations, allowing their brand to be known throughout the Kingdom.

"Everyone, I will now go to Karshvar Draconis to build our Guild Headquarters," Lux said. "When it is finished, all of you will be able to instantly teleport there once every three days, but I have something very important to tell all of you."

Everyone inside the Village Head's house were members of his Guild, so he didn't hold back and told them everything he had learned about the floating Island.

When they heard that it was actually the Legendary City where the Dragon King himself lived, Cedwyn, and the Elders of the Leaf Village, felt their legs turn into jelly, making it hard for them to remain standing.

"The Dragon King…" Randolph's eyes twinkled. "It is said that weapons and armor that are forged with Dragon Fire would have a Mythical Rank at its bare minimum. I wonder if I can go there to train as an apprentice to one of their Blacksmiths…"

"That is a good idea," Grandma Annie said. "The highest Rank a craftsman can attain in this Kingdom is the Grandmaster Rank. There were rumors that there were Mythical Ranked and Legendary Ranked Alchemists that existed in the past, but since no one has seen them, they just became the stuff of legends."

Randolph and Grandma Annie could feel their blood boiling at the possibility of advancing their rank to the next stage after studying in the Legendary City of the Dragon King.

"Since we will be visiting an unknown land, it will be wise for us to be on our best behavior," Lux stated. "First impressions last, so we must make them look at us favorably when we go there."

Cai, who was also inside the room, narrowed its eyes as it gazed at the red-headed teenager.

"That's right. You should make sure that they look at us favorably," Cai said. "If it was me, I'm sure that I'd become best buddies with them in less than a minute. It's quite unfortunate that only you can go there."

Lux rolled his eyes at the Boar who was talking a bunch of nonsense. The only way that it would become best buddies with the Dragons was when they saw the Boar as food.

Since Lux would be gone for a few days, Cai and Keane decided to return to Solais for the time being and return to the Rowan Tribe.

Cai wanted to know if its Grandpa had succeeded in creating a cure using the White Lotus that would be used to treat those who were infected with the Purple Plague.

Holding the Dragon Token in his hand, Lux and Eiko bid everyone goodbye before they were bathed in a radiant light.

A second later, the Half-Elf and the Baby Slime appeared in what seemed to be a temple that was overlooking a majestic city where Dragons flew in the sky, making the Half-Elf take a deep breath due to how surreal it was.

"So, this is Karshvar Draconis," Lux muttered as he gazed at the Legendary City, where his Guild's first steps would finally begin.
