Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate Chapter 39

After arriving in Leaf Village, Lux parted with Colette and her friends and went back to the inn to check his spoils of war.

He felt that it wasn't appropriate to appraise the loot that the monster had dropped while they were still in the Dungeon, so he decided that he would do it when he was alone.

Lux summoned the Sword that the Dark Draugr had dropped and checked its information.

< The Black Blade, Foe of the Covenant >

Rarity: Rare

(One Handed Sword)

– Attack: 30 - 50

– When equipped, the user will gain the Passive Skill "Dual Wielding".

< Dual Wielding >

– Able to wield two one-handed weapons in each hand without receiving any penalty. You will be able to use both weapons as if you are wielding them with your dominant hand.

"Its attack is stronger than Tranquility, and allows its user to Dual Wield…," Lux thought as he rubbed his chin. "But, Tranquility can summon a Forest Wolf. Also, having Dawne on Diablo allows him to use Shield Bash to stun enemies for a brief moment. The reason why the Dark Draugr wasn't able to deal any powerful blows is due to Shield Bash."

After thinking things through, Lux decided not to swap the Black Blade with Tranquility. His only weapon right now was Oathbreaker. It was a unique weapon that could be considered a cheat item in his current level.

"I guess for now I can equip both Oathbreaker and the Black Blade," Lux muttered as he returned the sword inside his storage ring.

Lux also didn't forget to allocate his rewards to his Body Constitution and Diablo to increase their progression level. As for the free stat points he had, he didn't touch them for the time being because he had no intention of breaking through the Apostle Grade anytime soon.

Colette and the others invited him to come with them to the Figaro Garden located in the North Zone of Leaf Village. This was a place where insectoid monsters roamed.

According to the adorable little Dwarf girl, there were rumors that there was a Unique Weapon hidden in this area. This was also the reason why they planned to investigate by themselves and check if the rumors were true.

As the owner of the Elysium Compendium, Lux was aware of all the Unique Quests that could be found in Leaf Village. One of them was even a Mythical Quest that was exclusive only to Beginner Villages.

The Mythical Quest would give out Mythical Ranked items as rewards. However, its difficulty was so high that no beginner in their right minds would dare and try to challenge it. Also, since Mythical Quests were extremely rare quests, the only way to acquire them was based on luck and fortuitous encounters.

Currently, Lux had two Mythical Items in his possession. One was the Elysium Compendium, which had all the information about Elysium. The other one was the black coffin in Lux's possession that went by the name "Blackfire".

The Elysium Compendium alone was already considered a priceless treasure. If Lux could complete the Mythical Quest before he left Leaf Village then he would gain another trump card on his journey through Elysium.

Actually, the trigger of the quest was simpler than expected. All they needed to do was defeat all of the Alpha Monstres that were exclusive to each zone. However, even if the Dwarves defeated them, they would not be aware that they had triggered a Mythical Quest by accident.

Until now, no one had managed to complete the Mythical Quest in the Beginner's Village because of how random it was.

Lux was sure that even if the Dwarves were able to defeat the three Alpha Monsters, the Field Boss, Forest Wolf King, was something that they wouldn't dare to fight.

< Forest Wolf King >

– Beginner Zone Field Boss

– King of the Forest

– Rank 4 Field Boss Monster

Lux estimated that only a hundred-men team composed of Grade D up to Grade B Apostles, would be able to fight against this Field Boss, who was the Apex Creature within the boundaries of Leaf Village.

Field Bosses were different from Normal Rank 3 Monsters because of their strength and rarity.

Similar to how Diablo was different from normal Skeletons, Field Bosses also had higher stats and powerful skills that surpassed monsters of the same rank.

Clearing the Mythical Quest was only one of the two reasons why Lux was not in a hurry to leave Leaf Village.

His other goal was more important than the Mythical Quest, and it was on a more personal level.

As long as this goal wasn't achieved, Lux wouldn't leave the Beginner's Village even after he completed the Mythical Quest that no one had cleared in the past.

Lux closed his eyes and the images of Colette and the other dwarves appeared in his head. They were the first companions that he had met in Elysium, and thought that it wouldn't be a bad idea to go on adventures with them while he was still in Leaf Village.

"Grandma, I think I've made some new friends today," Lux said softly as he closed his eyes. "I hope that tomorrow will be another wonderful day."

A minute later, Lux was already fast asleep. He dreamt a happy dream.

A dream where he and the Dwarf children went on epic adventures all around Elysium.

Adventures that would be remembered for a lifetime.
