Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate-Novel

The Boar, who had been spared, wept on the ground in relief because it thought that it was really going to be roasted alive. Fortunately, that didn't happen. It decided to behave for now while desperately calling out to Lux through their Guild Chat.

Cai had noticed that Keane and Lux were already talking to each other and exchanging information.

"Cai and Keane, don't worry. I can pinpoint your location on the map using my Soul Book," Lux said calmly. "I have already contacted Commander Thoram and Guildmaster Keelan to start calling our backup. Once we regroup, we will save the two of you without fail."

"Wuwuwuwu! They almost roasted me alive," Cai wept bitterly in the Guild Chat, making Laura, and Livia, who were in Leaf Village, do their best to comfort the Boar who was still in pain from its recent experience.

"Hang on, Cai! Help is already on the way!" Laura said.

"Big Brother Lux has already called out to everyone, including Village Head, Cedwyn," Livia commented. "Just endure for now. We will avenge your death!"

"Um, I'm nowhere near death, Livia," Cai replied. "You little devil. Wait till I get out of this mess and I'll squish you to oblivion!"

Wolfpine Barony...

Lux felt relieved after knowing that both Cai and Keane were safe.

The first one he contacted as soon as he left Millie's side was Commander Thoram of the Stronghold of Norria.

He reported that the Princess had been kidnapped, which made the Commander take this case seriously.

Lux asked the Dwarf Commander to get in touch with Nevreal as soon as possible, and report the events that had happened in the city. He added that the members of the Order of the Griffin should be mobilized for this operation because they were dealing with several powerful Rankers from Twilight Rain.

The next one he contacted was the Guildmaster of the Adventurer's Guild inside the Stronghold of Norria, Keelan, who had a vast information network.

He requested that if there were any available Rankers in the Adventurer's Guild who were willing to join the rescue operation to save the Princess of the Kingdom of Gweliven, they should send them directly to the borders between the Wolfpine Barony and the Earldom of Draycott.

Judging from Cai and Keane's current location, the kidnappers seemed to be planning to go to the Draycott Earldom, which was located South West of the Wolfpine Barony.

The Domain that belonged to Earl Aeston was a seaport town, famous for trade among the adjacent territories, who use the port as a hub to buy and sell specialty products that were exclusive to certain domains within the Kingdom of Gweliven.

A few minutes later, Keelan informed Lux through the Guild Chat that he had made contact with the Guildmaster who was in charge of the Earldom of Draycott, as well as the other branches of the Adventurer's Guild in adjacent territories that had some Rankers that were currently on standby.

Keelan himself would go to the Earldom in order to take command of the situation. Since Lux could tell them where Cai and Keane were, all he needed to do was guide him, and he would position his allies accordingly.

Lux was awed by how efficient Keelan's performance was that he felt immensely thankful that the latter had joined his guild back then.

Five minutes later, Thoram joined the chat, and told Lux that Nevreal was already on the way to meet the King to inform the latter about the incident that had happened in Wolfpine Village.

This was the first time that Lux had mobilized his guild members in order to deal with a serious incident, and it proved that he had dependable allies that would help him whenever he needed it.

Lux was even tempted to have Guild Members in all the cities of the Kingdom of Gweliven. However, he knew that this was not possible at this point in time.

He couldn't just randomly invite people because it would endanger his Guild, which was still in its infancy.

Suddenly, Lux had an idea, so he immediately opened his connection with Scarlet, who was currently with Twilight Rain.

'Where are you right now?' Lux asked. 'There is a matter that I need your help with.'

Lux didn't have to wait long before he received Scarlet's reply, telling him that she was currently on an important mission, and wouldn't be able to come to his aid at the moment.

'You're on a mission?' Lux inquired. "Are you perhaps part of the team that kidnapped Princess Anastasia?'

'... How did you know that the Princess was kidnapped?' Scarlet asked with a doubtful tone. 'This is supposed to be a secret operation.'

Lux's eyes widened in shock because he didn't expect that his mole inside Twilight Rain was part of the group that had kidnapped the Princess. He only thought that he would ask Scarlet to help him get some inside information on what the group was planning.

However, since Scarlet was already part of the group, this allowed Lux to have more leeway with the things he could do with the rescue operation.

'I was in the Wolfpine Barony when you guys ambushed the Princess,' Lux explained. 'Also, the Boar, and the Human Swordsman that you guys kidnapped alongside the Princess are my friends.'

Scarlet, who had been resurrected by Lux to become a Cambion, was loyal to him. Although she grudgingly obeyed his orders, it didn't change the fact that he allowed her to have a second chance at life in exchange of becoming his subordinate.

Lux then told Scarlet his plan, so the Slayer Candidate could help him in subtle ways without blowing her cover.

After finalizing a few more things with Scarlet, the Half-Elf finally went back to look for Millie.

Not long after, both of them left the Wolfpine Barony in haste.

Lux was pressed for time since he needed to save the Princess and return Clyde back to the Wolfpine Barony before the Monster of Ruin arrived.
