Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

After regaining her composure, Iris read Eiko's information in Lux's Soul Book one more time to make sure that she didn't miss anything.

A few minutes later, she returned the Half-Elf's Soul Book to him before grabbing the baby Slime who had fallen asleep in the bird's nest, which she had made and placed on top of Lux's head.

Eiko didn't even open her eyes when Iris held her. Clearly, she knew that she was safe in her Mama's hands, so she continued to rest.

She had just been born, and she still had to adjust for a few days so she could fully adapt to her new body. Although she still looked like an ordinary baby Slime on the surface, her status information was beyond ordinary.

Suddenly, a loud knock was heard on the door followed by Cai's voice inside Lux's head.

"My Daddy, can I go now?" Cai asked. "Laura and Livia said that they are planning to pick up some herbs. I plan to go with them!"

The Half-Elf smiled as he opened the door, allowing Cai, who had shrunk to a meter-tall boar, enter Iris room.

The moment Cai spotted the sleeping Eiko in Iris' hands, the Boar immediately went over to look at the adorable Slime, whom it had met in the past.

"Did she revive just now?" Cai asked. "Awwww. She's still as cute as ever."

"Don't be too loud, Cai," Iris said softly. "You'll wake her up."

As if to prove that she was right, Eiko yawned before opening her eyes to look at the Boar with a sleepy gaze.

"Cai?" Eiko asked.

"Yes!" Cai answered. "It's me, Eiko! I'm very happy that you are revived again! I'm going to Leaf Village now. Do you want to come?"

Eiko shook her head before closing her eyes to sleep again. Right now, she wanted to be with Iris, so she didn't plan to go anywhere for the time being.

"I'll be out for a bit," Lux said to Iris, who only nodded her head in understanding. "Are you ready, Cai?"

"Of course I am ready. Let's go!"

"Okay."

Lux pressed his fist over his chest as he activated the power of the Arondight Ring in his finger.

"Open! Heaven's Gate!"

Leaf Village…

Lux and Cai appeared at the plaza where the statue of the Eternal Guardian was located. As soon as they arrived, both of them were immediately welcomed by Laura and Livia.contemporary romance

However, there was one more person waiting for them, and it was none other than Heidi, whom the twins had also invited to go to the plains with them.

Just like the two Dwarves, it didn't take long for Heidi to follow the newest tradition in Leaf Village—having a Slime as a Beast Companion.

Heidi's baby Slime was pink, and she named it Pink as well. Cai laughed when she heard about it, making the golden-haired little girl go pink in embarrassment.

For some reason, the baby Slimes liked to perch on top of their Master's head, imitating the baby Slime in the statue, who had helped Lux defend the village from the Monster Outbreak that almost wiped it off from the map.

"I'm tempted to get a baby Slime too…," Cai looked wistfully at the cute Creatures on top of the little girl's heads.

"That's a good idea!" Laura said. "Come, let's go to the Slime Paradise, so we can pick a Slime for you. Follow the Leaf Village's tradition."

"It's decided then," Livia stated. "Cai is now one of us. Let's go!"

"I'm also curious to know what kind of Slime would fit Cai's personality," Heidi commented. "It's still early, and we have plenty of time to look for herbs. Let's go to Slime Paradise first."

Seeing that its three new friends decided to invite it to the Slime Paradise, where baby Slimes were being raised, Cai didn't resist and happily went with them.

Lux on the other hand, stared at the Boar, who was happily chatting with the three little girls. For some reason, he felt like Cai was a lonely person. He didn't know where this feeling came from because it was hard for him to believe that the chatty Boar would ever be lonely.

'I might just be imagining things,' Lux thought before returning to Solais.

He had promised Iris that he would stay with her for a week, so he returned as soon as he could.

As soon as the Half-Elf left Leaf Village, a plain carriage, which was escorted by several Riders of Norria, arrived at its entrance.

"It's been a while since I've been here," Robin muttered as he disembarked from the carriage and looked at the rustic Village that was located on the very outskirts of the Kingdom of Gweliven. "Are you sure that he is here, Nevreal?"

The middle-aged Dwarf, who always accompanied Robin whenever he wasn't doing any field work, nodded his head.

"He is here," Nevreal replied. "Thoram would not lie to me."

Robin frowned. "We need to find him as soon as we can. We don't have much time left."

"Understood." Nevreal nodded as he led Robin towards the Village Head's house.

Their purpose for coming to Leaf Village was to talk to Lux. Although the Half-Elf was currently hiding his identity, the Riders of Norria, as well as the Order of the Griffin, had worked together to keep his identity hidden, preventing the Dark Guild, Twilight Dynasty, from getting suspicious.

Now that more Humans had appeared in Leaf Village, the Order of the Griffin was sent by the Kingdom to determine whether they were friends or foes.

"I sure hope they will not be a threat to our kingdom," Robin stated. "If they are friends with him, then we can give them preferential treatment."

Nevreal nodded his head in agreement. "Naturally, we still have to test them and see if they are trustworthy. Our friend no longer needs to be tested, but his acquaintances are a different matter. Also, the Young Master needs to gain more allies. We've already talked to the Eternal Guild, but Aina's stance remains the same. She doesn't plan on joining the kingdom's politics."

"That's fine," Robin replied. "I don't really want to drag Colette and my other friends in this mess."

"You're fine not dragging them, but you want to drag him into your family's struggle?"

"Why not? He's not my friend."

Nevreal chuckled after hearing Robin's reply.

'I almost feel sorry for Lux now,' Nevreal mused as he looked at his Young Master's back, who was determined to beat his brothers in a battle of wits, in order to achieve his goal of making the Kingdom of Gweliven the mightiest kingdom in the Southern Regions of Elysium.
