Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate Chapter 186

"Thank you for handling this matter perfectly," the Guild Master of the Adventurer's Guild in Oakwood Town, Colton said with a serious expression on his face. "I never thought that the mastermind of this incident was also the same person that issued the Quest in our Guild. If I get my hands on her, I'll break all the bones in her body!"

Colton was furious when he found out that his branch of the Adventurer's Guild had been used as a means to conduct diabolical experiments that endangered the adventurers working for them. Because of this, he decided to take the matter seriously, even inviting Lux back to the Guild in order to hear a detailed report from him.

Lux agreed to his request and told him everything he knew about Mara and her group, who were currently on their way to Whitebridge City.

After getting their rough Sketches, Colton thanked Lux once again before contacting the Guild Master of the Adventurer's Guild in Whitebridge City.

He planned to have Mara and her group captured the moment they stepped foot inside the city and have them interrogated by the authorities.

"Sir Colton, I have a request," Lux said. "Can you pass a message to Sir Nevreal for me? Tell him that I have something important to tell him, and I'll meet him here in Oakwood Town."

"Nevreal? Are you talking about THAT Nevreal?" Colton asked with a surprised look on his face. "You know him?"

Lux frowned. He didn't know if the Nevreal he knew, and the Nevreal that Colton was talking about was the same person.

"Um, the person I am talking about is Nevreal Cy Borris," Lux answered. "Middle-aged looking dwarf with scary eyes…"

Colton laughed after hearing Lux's description. Nevreal Borris might not be well-known among the common folk of the Gweliven Kingdom, but the influential people of the realm all knew who Nevreal was.

He was one of the Grandmasters of Alchemy, who had discovered the cure for the White Plague, which had become a wide-spread pandemic a decade ago.

If not for his cure, with how scary the White Plague was, more than a third of the population of the Kingdom of Gweliven could have died.

"Very well, I will send word to him," Colton said as he patted Lux's shoulder. "I just need to tell him that Lux Von Kaizer wants to talk to him about something important, right?"

Lux nodded. "Yes. The sooner we meet, the better."

"Good. I'll make it happen. I'll get back to you as soon as I receive his reply. I will also tell him about the achievements that you have done here."

"Sure."

Everything that happened was just pure coincidence. Lux just wanted to look for his friends and it just so happened that they had been targeted by an unknown organization, which led Lux to fight against them.

'Well, I am already on their blacklist,' Lux thought. 'Making them angrier won't change things.'

Lux understood that since the unknown organization was now aware of his existence, it was only a matter of time before they came to blows. Before that happened, the Half-Elf planned to screw them three times over by letting Nevreal personally deal with the people involved in the incident.

At that moment, a series of notifications sounded inside his head as rows of text appeared in front of him, signifying that the Emergency Quest was completed.

Lux set this matter aside and went to look for Colette and her friends, who were currently waiting for him outside the Adventurer's Guild. They all decided to celebrate their reunion at the most popular inn in Oakwood Town.

Because of Lux's achievements, the Guild Master used his connections in order to let Lux and his friends use the VIP rooms, which were usually reserved for the high-ranking nobles of the Kingdom.

"Big Brother, I have reported this incident to my sister," Colette said after she drank her mug of fruit juice. "She said that she wanted to personally thank you for saving all of us. So, if you're not busy, why don't we all go to Whitebridge City together? I promise you that my sister is a beauty. Don't worry, I already approve of you as my brother-in-law."

Colette patted her chest as if she had the authority to choose who her sister's husband would be. She was confident that as soon as her Big Brother saw her Big Sister, the red-headed teenager would immediately get down on his knees and propose to her sister.

Lux only chuckled to evade Colette's insistence to play matchmaker between him and her sister, Aina.

Although he was curious to see the adorable girl's older sister, he wasn't in a hurry to meet her.

He stirred the conversation to a different topic, asking the Dwarves what they had been up to since they had left Leaf Village.

Colette and the others were more than happy to tell Lux about their adventures after becoming part of the Eternal Guild, which was under Aina's command.

The reunion party lasted through the night before the Dwarves finally returned to their rooms to rest, leaving Lux and Eiko exhausted.

They had traveled far in order to reach Oakwood Town and were dragged into the incident that concerned their friends.

Eiko was already fast asleep on Lux's lap, while the latter wasn't faring any better himself. As soon as he placed the sleeping Slime on the pillow on the bed, a knock was heard on the door of his room, which made him frown.

It was already in the middle of the night, and he didn't know any law-abiding citizen that would visit him at this time of the day.

Lux summoned Ishtar and Diablo by his side and ordered them to defend him if his life was threatened.

After the two Named Creatures positioned themselves at the side of the door, Lux opened it to see who it was.

"Can't you just take it easy once in a while?"

An annoyed, gruff voice greeted him as Nevreal stepped inside his room.

"The moment you appear in an Intermediate Town, a problem appeared right away," Nevreal complained. "If not for the fact that I personally know that you are not connected to the perpetrators of these incidents, I would have personally taken you into custody. Boy, don't you know the meaning of moderation?"

Lux could only scratch his head because he didn't really want to be involved in any kind of mess. He only wanted to see his friends and give them a surprise. Who would have thought that the one who was given the surprise was him instead?

"Okay, I'll tell it to you straight," Nevreal stated as he sat without asking for Lux's permission. "I don't know if you have good or bad luck, but you have ruffled the feathers of an underworld organization, not just once, but twice."

"If I were you, I'd return to where I came from to tide things over. Even with the increased security of the border patrols, I'm sure that they will come to target you for revenge."

Lux frowned as he sat down to face the Dwarf who was looking at him with a serious expression on his face.

"Have you captured the researchers?" Lux asked. This was something that he had been meaning to ask ever since Nevreal had stepped inside his room but had not been able to do so because the latter was nagging at him.

"We did," Nevreal replied. "The Eternal Guild, as well as the other Guilds in Whitebridge City, are now working together to round up the members of the Dark Guild that goes by the name Twilight Rain."

"Twilight Rain…," Lux muttered. "Tell me, Sir Nevreal. What can I do to help?"

Now that he knew the identity of the organization that was targeting him, Lux decided that it was time to actively participate in the operations targeting the Dark Guild that was causing a lot of trouble within the Kingdom of Gweliven.
