Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

"M-Master, I feel strange."

"It's fine, Calypso. Just accept it. You will feel better soon."

"Uh…. Nnng… It's so… hard… mmm! I-I can't… ngh!"

Calypso's body shuddered as Lux's hand held onto her. It had been only a few minutes since they started, but she was already at her limit.

"Just endure it for a while," Lux said. "Here is another serving, take it."

"Hah… Ngh! So hot!" Calypso's voice trembled as she did her best to endure the hot feeling that was washing over her body.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration that this was the first time that she had ever felt something like this in her life, especially after being reborn as a Living Armor and a Divine Weapon that served under Lux.

"Let's take a short break," Lux stated as he wiped away the beads of sweat that had formed on his forehead. "You've done well, Calypso."

The Half-Elf's hand lightly caressed the handle of the Divine Spear, making the latter tremble once again.

After his successful shopping trip in the Bazaar of Shambala, he started adding several new abilities to his Divine Weapon using his Transmutation [EX] skill, making Calypso more powerful.

The abilities that the Half-Elf had imparted to the Spear of Longinus were, Auto-Repair, Double Pierce, Acceleration, Precision, Weakness Point, Cross Poison, Deadly Strike, Lightning Strike, Spear Drill, and Gale Force.

These skills were meant to make the Spear of Longinus hit harder, faster, and inflict status ailments on those that were hit by it.

The Half-Elf still had many other trinkets with abilities, which he bought earlier, but he didn't intend to put all of them in the Spear of Longinus.

Abilities like "Light as a Feather" were redundant to use because the spear already had the perfect weight in Lux's hands. There were many skills that were useless for Calypso but would be very useful for other weapons.

For example, Lux intended to look for the heaviest weapon that he could find in Agartha.

A weapon that would weigh several tons. Once he found it, he'd transmute the skill Light as a Feather to it. He was planning to give this weapon to one of his subordinates, allowing them to wield a weapon that would take the enemy by surprise.

Truth be told, he wanted to give Eiko a weapon, but when he told this to the Baby Slime, the latter only shook her head.

For Eiko, the only weapon she needed was her Bombs, and that was more than enough to make her enemies go Boom!

"Are you done, Lux?" Gaap asked as he knocked on the door of Lux's room.

"Yes, Master," Lux replied before telling Calypso that they would continue their Transmutation Session later this evening.

This made the Spear of Longinus sigh in relief because she didn't know what would happen to her if her Master decided to start round two in her current state. Right now, her body was so sensitive, and receiving more stimulation might just break her mind.

Of course, Lux didn't know this. He unsummoned the Divine Weapon before opening the door to let his Master inside the room.

"Are you done with information gathering, Master?" Lux inquired as he offered Gaap a mug of water.

"Well, you can say that," Gaap replied as he accepted the mug that was given to him. "According to the information I gathered, the Pantheon of Exile is a week's travel from the capital if we are able to use the City's Teleportation Gate.

"If we don't use the Teleportation Gate, it will take us two weeks to reach our destination. Also, there are several waypoints that we need to pass through, and all of them are heavily guarded."

Lux arched an eyebrow after hearing his Master's report. He thought that the Pantheon of Exile was just a place for those who had been exiled from the Kingdom of Agartha, but this was only an assumption that he had made.

"Is the Pantheon of Exile some kind of Prison?" Lux asked.

"Not exactly, but it also serves that purpose," Gaap answered. "According to the information I gathered, several powerful beings and creatures that could potentially threaten Agartha were kept in there as well.

"The waypoints are actually strongholds that serve as lines of defense in order to prevent any of those creatures from passing through the borders of Agartha."

Lux pondered a bit after hearing his Master's explanation.

If those who were sent to the Pantheon of Exile were truly beings that could threaten the peace and stability of the ancient kingdom, wouldn't that mean that it was a very dangerous place to visit?

"I'm very curious about what kind of beings have been sent there. Do you have any idea, Master?"

"No. Actually, I am very curious as well. It is possible that there might be some High-Ranking Nobility from the Abyss there, like the one that was sealed inside the Sacred Dungeon."

"Noble Abyssals," Lux muttered. "Those guys are a pain."

The one that Gaap had caught in the Sacred Dungeon was a High-Ranking Abyssal Noble, and after interrogating its soul, he had confirmed that it was a Duke-Ranked Abyssal Noble whose power had regressed after being sealed for hundreds of years.

In fact, that Abyssal Creature was so strong that it had been sealed inside the Domain of the Fallen, yet it only regressed in power instead of being eradicated completely.

"On another note, I have a feeling that the King of Agartha is scheming something against us," Gaap said. "My gut instinct is telling me that he might use underhanded methods in order to prevent us from reaching the Pantheon of Exile."

"There's really nothing we can do but face his scheme head-on, Master," Lux replied. "I'm pretty sure that he won't underestimate us again after what happened in the Gladiator's Coliseum."

Gaap chuckled because this was very true.

The organizer of the event, Michael, had come to them to talk in private, demanding the release of Leonidas, as well as the other Gladiators that Blackfire had captured during the Deathmatch.

Of course, he also promised to give them bountiful compensation, but the Half-Elf flatly rejected his offer.

There was simply no way that Lux would return such promising individuals, even if he were to be offered millions of gold coins.

The Half-Elf no longer had any issue with money, and at the moment, what he lacked was manpower. The 300 Gladiators and the Mercenary Leader were much more than their weight in gold, and he had no plans to give them back no matter what.

Besides, he had a feeling that even if he ordered Blackfire to return them, the Black Coffin would refuse his order.

"By the way, I have some good news for you," Gaap said with a mischievous smile on his face. "After your in the Gladiator's Coliseum, there have been people asking about how to join your Guild. Are you really sure that you want to invite Agarthians to Heaven's Gate? Do you not plan to keep it a secret anymore?"

Lux smiled because he understood his Master's worries.

"Master, rest assured, I have already thought about this carefully," Lux replied. "Agartha is located deep under the ground, and it would nearly be impossible for any news from it to reach the Surface World.

"I even dare say that Agartha is the perfect place to recruit Guild Members. Even if they spread the news of my Guild being a Mythical Guild, nothing bad will come out of it. In fact, it will be good publicity! We can also use the benefit of being able to visit the Surface World as bait to tempt powerful individuals who have already seen everything there is to see in Agartha."

Gaap pondered a bit after hearing Lux's reply, and he had to admit that this was indeed a good idea.

His only worry was how the King of Agartha would react after knowing that Lux was the Guildmaster of the Mythical Guild, whose name had even reached one of the most ancient kingdoms in the world.
